Chapter 6 Hmm, it doesn't feel as fun as games.
"How long has it been since the class monitor came to school? Is everything alright?"
"Tsk, I don't know. I can't get in touch with Ranran either. I'm really worried about her. I don't even know where she lives..."
"How about we ask the teacher? Ask if the teacher has her home phone number..."
When Zhou Heng arrived at school, he heard people talking at the classroom door, and the voices grew closer.
Moreover, he recognized one of the voices all too well; it was Tong Yining's.
Just as Zhou Heng was about to enter the classroom, Tong Yining and a girl came out, and the three met at the door.
Tong Yining has long, black hair and delicate features; she is Zhou Heng's type.
However, that was all in the past until yesterday.
“Ouch—”
After seeing Zhou Heng, the other girl glanced at Tong Yining instinctively, her eyes widening with excitement.
After all, the whole class knows about Zhou Heng and Tong Yining's relationship. Now that they've met, Zhou Heng will definitely confess to Tong Yining again!
As a front-row audience member, seeing Zhou Heng being cruelly rejected was naturally very exciting for her.
Upon seeing Zhou Heng, Tong Yining's face quickly showed a hint of impatience, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly.
In her heart, she was also thinking that Zhou Heng would confess his feelings to her next.
He follows me wherever I go; I can't shake him off.
She thought to herself, if she hadn't been Zhou Heng's classmate for several years, she would have been angry long ago.
Anyway, every day is the same, and she's used to it.
Seeing Zhou Heng open his mouth as if to say something, Tong Yining spoke first, preemptively saying:
"Zhou Heng, I've already told you, can you please stop bothering me..."
"Could you move to the side?"
"..."
Tong Yining's words were instantly cut off. Her mouth opened slightly, her eyes widened abruptly, and she felt as if a bone was stuck in her throat, unable to reply.
Tong Yining didn't react immediately, but the girl next to her did and moved aside.
Zhou Heng walked straight over, leaving Tong Yining standing there, blinking and dumbfounded.
The girl peeked out, cautiously looking at Tong Yining's profile, and asked:
"Uh... Tongtong, are you alright?"
"Huh? I... what's wrong with me? Honestly... I'm so glad he's not bothering me."
Tong Yining realized what was happening and quickly explained, but her eyes inadvertently glanced at Zhou Heng in the classroom.
Her heart was beating a little fast, and her mind was full of questions, not understanding what was wrong with Zhou Heng.
It seems... a little different from usual?
Zhou Heng walked to his seat and sat down. Tang Zhi, who sat next to him, was twirling her pen, looking quite bored.
When Zhou Heng came down, she tossed him a piece of chewing gum.
Zhou Heng didn't say anything, took it, opened it, and started eating.
"Our guild is going to raid tonight, should we log on?"
"No, the monthly exams are coming up soon, and I need to improve my ranking by at least 50 places this time..."
Zhou Heng sighed, then took out his workbook from his bag, ready to do the exercises.
"The dungeon we're running tonight has a piece of equipment you've always wanted. Are you sure you don't want to come?"
Zhou Heng put down his pen, turned to look at Tang Zhi, sighed, and said helplessly:
"Tang Zhi, I think you bear some responsibility for my poor grades."
Tang Zhi shrugged and said, "But I'm playing with you too."
"But you're in the top 20 of the whole grade, while I'm ranked over 200th or lower."
"Okay, okay, I'll help you get the equipment tonight, and I'll give it to you when you log in later."
"Thanks."
Just then, a boy walked over and gently patted Zhou Heng on the shoulder.
Zhou Heng turned his head, looked at the boy, and frowned slightly:
"Kong Yue, what's wrong?"
"Zhou Heng, please give this to Tang Zhi for me, thank you..."
The boy handed Zhou Heng a love letter, then hurriedly ran away.
Zhou Heng turned and handed the love letter to Tang Zhi, saying, "Here you go, Kong Yue gave it to you."
Tang Zhi took it, didn't even look at it, and tossed it aside, as if she didn't care about it at all.
"Aren't you going to take a look?"
"No, I'm not interested in dating."
Tang Zhi shook her head and answered calmly.
These words were like a heavy blow to Zhou Heng, after all, he had been relentlessly pursuing someone until yesterday, a behavior completely opposite to Tang Zhi's.
"I envy you; I'm not interested in this at all."
"Hmm, it doesn't feel as fun as games."
Zhou Heng thought to himself, if he had the same thoughts as Tang Zhi, he wouldn't have felt so disappointed by so many failed confessions.
Class started quickly, and Zhou Heng listened attentively. His eyes caught sight of Yin Mengran's seat.
The seat had been empty for a long time, and its owner was still at home...
She should be coming to school tomorrow, right? Should I say something nice to her tonight?
That way she probably won't tell anyone tomorrow that she made her cry...
"Ok?"
He turned his gaze and found someone looking at him.
In the past, if this person had glanced at him, he would definitely have been happy.
But today, the feeling is completely different.
This person was Tong Yining. She had been staring at him while he was looking at Yin Mengran's seat.
After being discovered by themselves, they exchanged a glance before turning their heads away.
After class, Zhou Heng prepared to go to the restroom.
As soon as I stepped out of the classroom, someone immediately followed me.
"Zhou Heng! Brother! Did you give that to Tang Zhi?" Kong Yue came to Zhou Heng's side and asked in a low voice.
"Ah, I gave it to you."
"What did she say?"
She said she wasn't interested, and that games were more fun.
"what..."
Kong Yue was completely stunned, standing there dumbfounded. After regaining his senses, he quickly chased after him and continued to ask:
"And then? Nothing else? Didn't you say it was me who gave it to you?"
"I told her, and the next second she ignored me."
"Holy crap..."
Kong Yue's face showed bitterness, but he still didn't want to give up and continued:
"Bro, do you know what she likes? You definitely do, you've been deskmates for two years, tell me, I want to buy her a gift..."
"Give up, stop pursuing her, find someone else to pursue."
Kong Yue said firmly, "No... I just like her like that, short hair, a cute face, and she's cool and aloof. To be honest, I even dreamed about her yesterday, but I can't tell you what I dreamed about."
"You're crazy... Then why are you asking me? Go ask someone else."
"Big brother, you're her deskmate, and you have experience pursuing girls, although you've been trying for two years and haven't succeeded..."
Kong Yue realized he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut his mouth, but Zhou Heng's sharp eyes were already glaring at him.
He turned around and patted Kong Yue on the shoulder with his big hand, making him wince in pain, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
"Let's upgrade her computer's graphics card to a 4090 and buy her a gift that meets that standard."
