Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

Chapter 13

Quan Zhisui: "???"

She was dumbfounded for a moment, her eyeballs froze and unable to move.

Wei Shixu's mouth raised in a smile, but his eyes flashed sharply: "Kong Mingze entered on tuition fees, so he's a visiting student and doesn't affect Liang Secondary School's promotion rate. You're different, your student record is with Liang."

Meaning she would embarrass the school if her grades were low.

Quan Zhisui: "......"

The classroom had already quieted down when Wei Shixu walked over. After he finished speaking, the entire classroom was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone's gaze focused on the last row, shining on him.

Quan Zhisui was silent for a while. She sensed something but wasn't sure, so she looked at Wei Shixu's cold, vicious eyes for a bit.

Yeah, still those very cold, poisonous eyes, but with a trace of strange light mixed in.

Couldn't say if he disliked her or what, but he was definitely deliberately messing with her.

Kong Mingze was also dumbfounded and asked: "Wei Shixu, aren't you not a class monitor? How come you're checking homework?"

Wei Shixu glared coldly at Kong Mingze, then looked back at Quan Zhisui. He tapped the desk with his fingers.

Tap...tap...

"So, where's your homework?" he asked.

Quan Zhisui replied: "I don't know how, so I didn't write it."

Wei Shixu seemed to smile but not smile as he pressed: "You don't know so you don't write it, you didn't ask classmates?"

Quan Zhisui opened then closed her mouth.

Today was only her second day after transferring. How could she have met so many weird people and things!

"Quan Zhisui, if you don't understand you can ask me." Zhuge Ying suddenly spoke up. Her voice was like a melody in the extremely quiet environment.

Quan Zhisui hurriedly shouted at her: "Okay! Thank you!"

Zhuge Ying: "You're welcome, I'm the class monitor, it's natural to help classmates."

At this moment, Quan Zhisui noticed Wei Shixu's eyes narrow. He didn't look back at Zhuge Ying, just kept staring at Quan Zhisui.

The atmosphere was so weird even Kong Mingze stuttered: "Wow, class monitor, uh, class monitor so nice, class monitor studies well..."

Wei Shixu glanced sideways at Kong Mingze, who immediately shut up.

Quan Zhisui thought for a bit then said: "I'll ask the class monitor for help with studying, thanks for the reminder."

Wei Shixu didn't speak, just turned and left, taking Quan Zhisui's milk tea from her desk as he went.

Kong Mingze: "???"

Who could tell him what was going on! Why did Wei Shixu take the milk tea again!

Quan Zhisui frowned, then abruptly stood up and asked loudly: "Then may I ask if you did your homework, Wei Shixu?"

She thought someone who watched horror movies during class wouldn't obediently do homework.

Kong Mingze gaped in shock, looking at her like a brave warrior.

The entire 1st class was also shocked, gasping.

Heavens!

The transfer student actually dared to ask Wei Shixu for homework?

Who in the school didn't know Class 10 Grade 2 had two eccentrics: Wei Shixu, the grade's top student, and Kong Mingze, the school's bottom student. Neither ever did homework.

Wei Shixu looked back at her and laughed, laughed recklessly: "No."

"Then give my milk tea back." Quan Zhisui met his gaze.

Wei Shixu's smile vanished in an instant. His aura was very cold and fierce as he stood there unmoving, eyes fixed on Quan Zhisui without blinking.

1 second, 2 seconds...

"Give it back." Quan Zhisui spoke firmly.

Wei Shixu's hand suddenly flung to the side, throwing the milk tea out the window!

His actions were shocking.

Another round of gasps sounded around them. Some timid girls even stood up, planning to temporarily leave this troublesome place.

A few boys wanted to come over to advise restraint, but didn't dare approach.

They hadn't expected Quan Zhisui to confront Wei Shixu!

Wei Shixu was a special existence at Liang Secondary School. He wasn't a problem student trying to become a school bully like Zuo Zichen, but he definitely wasn't a good student in the traditional sense either.

He was weird.

If someone was blinded by his signature smile and tried to get close or suppress him...

They would definitely suffer misfortune!

After throwing away the milk tea, Wei Shixu smiled again, not fake this time but arrogant.

Raging flames blazed in Quan Zhisui's eyes. For a moment she really wanted to punch him!

A hand reached out from behind, grabbing her shirt hem.

Quan Zhisui looked back to see Kong Mingze's pleading eyes.

"Don't get angry, don't get angry. He's always like this. I'll buy you another one, it's fine, it's fine. Do me a favor, I beg you."

Kong Mingze calmed Quan Zhisui down first, then started persuading Wei Shixu.

"Bro Wei! Brother! I'm begging you, can we not make things so stiff? We were fine yesterday..."

Maybe Kong Mingze's persuasion worked, because Wei Shixu didn't do anything else. He turned and sat back down.

Quan Zhisui also kept silent as she sat down, though her expression was still unhappy.

Just then the homeroom teacher Qian Ya rushed in yelling: "Who threw something out the window? Stand up!"

"Me, me, me." Kong Mingze stood up with both hands raised. "Got too carried away playing around, my mistake. I'll reflect and write self-criticism."

Qian Ya: "Go downstairs and sweep it all clean!"

Kong Mingze: "Okay."

The homeroom teacher scolded him while taking him out of the classroom.

The classroom remained quiet after they left, no one speaking, as if the air had frozen.

Many students' eyes darted around, looking between Quan Zhisui and Wei Shixu. No one dared speak, only communicating through looks.

What was with Wei Shixu? He's not the nosy type!

Don't know.

Why was Wei Shixu targeting the new student? Didn't he help clear up the cafeteria thing for her yesterday?

Don't know...

Did Wei Shixu get possessed today?

Possessed.

Quan Zhisui felt she was the one possessed, endless troubles.

...

Kong Mingze returned after morning self-study, hesitating as he looked at Quan Zhisui, but didn't get a chance to say anything before the class bell rang.

The first two periods were Math. The Math teacher came in holding a thick stack of test papers.

"Pop quiz, try to finish in two periods."

Students at key high schools were long used to this intensity. No one complained as they quickly passed out the papers and started.

This was Quan Zhisui's first quiz after transferring, and she treated it very seriously.

Kong Mingze didn't get a chance to speak. He'd intended to struggle through it, but fell asleep on the desk after starting the first problem.

Quan Zhisui also didn't know how, but made an effort to read each question and fill the entire paper.

About halfway through the allotted time, she glimpsed someone handing in their paper! Glancing up, she saw it was Wei Shixu.

Quan Zhisui had good vision and clearly saw Wei Shixu had answered every question. The Math teacher smiled and nodded at him as usual.

He was done? So fast?!

Quan Zhisui was extremely shocked. She looked down at her own paper, still less than one third done.

After handing in his paper, Wei Shixu left the classroom. The teacher didn't stop him, and the other students didn't even lift their heads, just kept working intensely.

Only Quan Zhisui was left with her worldview shattered.

Grades that good came with so many privileges?

No wonder he was so arrogant...

The two periods passed quickly and the papers started getting collected.

Quan Zhisui was covered in sweat from her efforts. She had no energy left and felt like this one Math test had drained her completely.

She collapsed on the desk limply, same as Kong Mingze's dead posture.

Someone approached next to her, then something cold and wet touched her cheek.

Quan Zhisui rolled her eyeballs and saw Wei Shixu holding a cup of milk tea, pressed against her face.
