  I had been staring at He Mochen's eyes all along, so I didn't miss the coldness in his eyes earlier. But after he finished speaking, he unexpectedly revealed a smiling face with curved eyebrows and eyes, and his facial expression instantly became as gentle as a spring breeze, warm like the bright moonlight on a night, even the dark pupils were shining with a dazzling light under the lamp's reflection.

  Being smiled at like that, I rarely felt embarrassed, and suddenly forgot his previous gaze. Hurriedly shifting my line of sight, I felt a slight burning sensation on my face: "Actually, school rumors will automatically die down after a while, you don't need to mind."

  "I know, but I can't just fan the flames." His voice was very calm. "So rest assured, I won't bother you."

  I was taken aback: "What does it mean?"

  He still smiled at me: "Bai classmate is so clever, how can you not understand."

  I am silent.

  "He continued saying: 'You only need to know that I'm doing this to avoid suspicion, but it's absolutely not because I don't like you.' He paused for a moment, 'If there's nothing else, I'll leave first.'"

  I opened my mouth, but in the end I just hummed a sound of agreement.

  As soon as He Mochen walked out of the door, a burst of whispers erupted around him.

  Those who normally get along with me are laughing and saying that I'm really overbearing today, but not enough. At the beginning, it was vigorous and vigorous, but at the end, it's like I've really changed my ways. Others are still immersed in the beauty they just saw and can't pull themselves out, covering their chests and muttering to themselves, saying that such a smile is so gentle it could drown people.

  On the way back to the dormitory, Xiao Yu and Mu Mu made fun of me with strange voices and expressions. I generally ignored them, thinking they had eaten too much white radish. However, Hai Ying and A Qian were unusually silent.

  "What's wrong with you guys? I didn't forget what you said and didn't make a big deal out of it with the new classmates." As soon as I entered the dorm, I immediately asked.

  "A Shallow also didn't sell Guan Zi: 'In the past I thought He Mò Tiān was a good person, but tonight being stirred up by you, I always feel that he has problems.'"

  "What's wrong?"

  "There's a problem with your attitude." Hae-sang chimed in.

  I thought for a moment and said disbelievingly: "Didn't he say before that it was to avoid suspicion? Now I know, so there's no problem in the future?"

  "That's your own problem, although we also said he was doing the opposite, but that was just a joke." Ah Qian said thoughtfully, "But what he said today, I feel like he's playing hard to get."

  Xiao Yu burst out laughing: "Ah Qian, you're someone who's always been chased after since childhood, what do you know about playing hard to get?"

  Predictably, Ah Qian shot back with a sharp glare: "Can't you see we're being serious here?!"

  Xiao Yu immediately pursed her lips tightly.

  "If it were just a case of teasing you like everyone else, that would be fine, but he gives me a really strange feeling." Aki said with a frown.

  "Or perhaps there's a danger of hiding a knife in a smile."

  Xiaoyu let out another snort and Momo quickly pulled her aside to study the clothes in the magazine.

  I suppressed a smile and said: "You guys are changing your faces too quickly, weren't you just praising them the other day? Have you been watching too many spy movies?"

  "Weren't you just looking at He Mochen and Chang Zhenyan a few days ago?" Ah Qian and Hai Yan said in unison.

  "Yao Yao, it's always good to keep a watchful eye. As for judging people, I still trust Ah Qian and Hai Ying." Mu Mu chimed in with a sentence.

  "Look at them, they're all so serious. I licked my lips: 'Don't worry, I can handle it. I'm a seasoned veteran of the dating world, after all. How strong my immune system is against men's advances, I still don't know? Besides, not to mention that I myself am not easily conquered, but right now, I also can't see what He Mochen has in mind for me. So you guys can rest assured.'"

  After finishing speaking, I took the pajamas from my bed and prepared to take a bath in the bathroom. When closing the door, I could still see Ha Ying and A Qian discussing.

  I remember that night after lights out, I lay on the bed, tossing and turning for half a day without being able to fall asleep. My mind was filled with either Haiying's words or He Mochen's gentle smile. Various thoughts swirled around me until I finally fell asleep in a daze, still unable to sort them out.

  Even now, when I recall He Mochen's smile, my heart skips a beat and can't help but accelerate. In my impression, He Mochen rarely smiled at me, even after we got to know each other, his expression when looking at me was always cold and distant. But that night, his eyebrows and eyes were fully relaxed, without the usual aloofness, as if carrying a gentle spring breeze - that He Mochen was indeed more handsome than Ye Song, whom I had always thought was elegant and refined.

  I thought that after the positive conversation the night before, my relationship with He Mochen had improved somewhat. But as a result, I found out the next day that everything was still the same, and even worse than before.

  That day, it just so happened that I and Xiao Yu went to buy breakfast. Early in the morning, we rushed to the cafeteria to buy steamed buns filled with soup. When we came out of the entrance, we met He Mochen. Just as I was about to greet him, he directly entered from another door on the other side, leaving my raised hand frozen in mid-air.

  Xiao Yu's face was exposed and she didn't look happy, biting the straw of her soy milk and mumbling: "Was he possessed by a ghost last night or what, how could he not see us?"

  I stroked the scalding hot bun and pondered for a moment: "Could it be that they're afraid of another rumor spreading?"

  "Joking, how could something related to you not spread rumors? I reckon someone even took a video last night." Xiao Yu hummed, "This He Mo Tian really has a small guts, so afraid of trouble."

  I didn't respond, thinking that since He Mochen had explicitly said he wanted to avoid suspicion, maybe in a place with very few people, he would normally greet us, but it's not certain.
