Chapter 9: The Color Demon

  Tap tap tap - a girl holding a blackboard eraser, made a few hasty knocks on the lectern desk, attracting the attention of her classmates who were originally making noise. Seeing everyone looking at her, she put down the blackboard eraser and cleared her throat. "Hey everyone, welcome to watch the latest episode of Entertainment - The Frontline, I'm your favorite host Tianqing." Tianqing is the music class representative, with a bright and sweet voice being her biggest characteristic. Her grades are average, but her lively personality has earned her teachers' favor. However, because she's too gossipy, her classmates have mixed feelings towards her - they love listening to her talk about the latest school news, but hate that they might become the headline of her stories. But this can't be blamed on her, as both her parents are journalists. She has inevitably inherited some of their curiosity and is training to be an entertainment news anchor in school.

  "Alas, alas, just spare the words, what's new again? Hurry up and say it!" Li Meng looked at Tian Qing's expression and felt that it must be some big news, and couldn't wait to know.

  The sky is clear, looking at the classmates concentrating on their own appearance, also enjoying the feeling of being stared at. Using the host's emphasis: "Just now in the school warehouse, our school's first red person, Xizi classmate, was exposed to have a secret crush on Qi Shuo classmate from Class 165. Xizi classmate not only pretended to lean against him but also couldn't help touching Qi Shuo's back~~~"

  Liang Ziqin, who had never been interested in gossip, was still lowering his head to do his math homework. When he heard the news, he was also shocked. He put down his pen and raised his head. "Hey, Tianqing, what nonsense are you talking about? She's just a poor student, and you're making her out to be some kind of demon."

  "Pervert? I didn't say that, don't distort the truth!" Tian Qing, although gossipy, didn't want to offend anyone, especially Xizi. Feeling that Xizi was about to return, she quickly threw down the eraser and jumped off the podium.

  Liang Ziqin was puzzled in her heart. This Xizi usually came late and didn't hand in homework, but today she actually went to touch Qizhuo's back. With a puzzled heart, she threw down the unfinished math problems and walked out of the classroom towards the warehouse. As she approached the experimental building, she saw Xizi with several classmates, walking back and forth while hugging school uniforms. Xizi had an air of innocence, hoping to forget what happened earlier. But seeing this made Liang Ziqin angry in her heart, and she quickly walked up to Xizi's side and took away the school uniform from her hands.

  "Huh? The sun is rising from the west today. You're actually helping me." Xizi stared at Liang Ziqin in surprise, smiling.

  Liang Ziqin casually grabbed a female classmate from Class 165 and asked: "Classmate, can you help me deliver these school uniforms to our classroom?"

  Liang Ziqin may not be as famous as Qi Shuo, but he's a genuine handsome guy. When he saw the girl blush and take the school uniform from his hand, she sweetly said: "En, okay."

  "Thank you so much." Liang Ziqin smiled politely.

  "You're welcome," the girl said, walking forward while secretly glancing back at Liang Ziqin.

  "Wow, handsome guys are really something else."

  Liang Ziqin watched as the girl walked away, her expression changed. "I'm asking you, don't you have any shame?"

  Xizi heard him say this and didn't want to either, coldly asking: "Hey, who are you saying has no shame?"

  "You - do you like Qi Xiao?" asked Liang Ziqin.

  "What's wrong?" Mentioning Qi Chuo, Xizi started to dodge and muttered in her heart. Did he know what happened earlier? Is everyone in the class aware of it too? The more she thought about it, the more embarrassed she felt, and her cheeks flushed red. She continued to pretend to be tough: "Liking Qi Chuo is just shameless!"

  Liang Ziqin saw her like this and asked in confusion: "Even if you like Qi Shuo, you can confess or pursue him, but how did you...how did you dare to touch someone else like that?" Xi Zi was also confused herself, wondering how she had the courage to touch Qi Shuo's back. Liang Ziqin saw her not speaking and knew Tian Qing had told the truth, sighed and shook his head as he returned to the classroom.

  He told me to touch Qizhuo's back, how did he know? Oh my god, won't it be known by Tianqing? If so, wouldn't the whole world know? My god! How can I see people in the future? Xizi was pounding her chest and stamping her feet outside the classroom, hating herself for being so impulsive. But since things have come to this, there's no way to retrieve them, and all she could do is pretend not to recognize it. In order to shorten the time of her classmates' teasing, Xizi watched as the seconds ticked away one by one. At the last second before the class bell rang, she rushed into the classroom and sat down in her seat.

  Although the bell had rung, the teacher still hadn't arrived. The classmates were still whispering to each other. "Look at her, she actually came back, if it were me, I wouldn't have dared to come back." "Speak softly, don't let her hear you." "Hmph, she's not afraid of people seeing her, why would she be afraid of what others say?" "This Ma Liang is really one of a kind, I think she's quite impressive, flirting with the school flower's boyfriend." As they spoke, Li Meng had another unique insight. She raised her thumb and said to Xi Zi, "Xi Zi, although I don't usually like you, today I give you 32 likes." Li Meng's classmates usually thought of themselves as beauties, but hadn't been crowned as the school flower. They felt inferior to Yu Fei, who had a boyfriend who was a class grass. They were resentful and had long wanted to see her make a fool of herself. But they didn't expect that it would be Xi Zi who would fulfill their wish. "If you have love, you should pursue it, I think Xi Zi is much prettier than Yu Fei."

  Qian Xin, a boy in front of Li Meng's desk, turned his head and asked incredulously: "Are you sure?" Yu Feier is the acknowledged goddess among everyone, what's wrong with Li Meng? She actually said Xi Zi was more beautiful than Yu Feier, it's like she can't tell which tune she's singing.

  Li Meng firmly replied: "I'm sure, just say that my legs are longer than Yu Feier's."

  Qian Xin smiled wryly and said: "What's the use of having long legs, running every day, I'm sure they're all muscle." As he spoke, he curled his lips, as if he had seen it before.

  Li Meng retorted: "You haven't seen it yourself, how do you know?"

  "Cough, cough." The English teacher gave a slight cough at the door, indicating that class had begun. Classmates also consciously quieted down and entered learning mode.

  Xizi felt puzzled in her heart, thinking that after Xihe left, the world suddenly became different. How could Li Meng, who usually loved to mock herself, actually argue with someone for her own sake? She sighed inwardly, "It's not that I don't understand, it's just that the world is changing too fast!"

  "The class monitor gave a command, and the classmates stood up in unison. Liang Ziqin looked at Xizi beside him, who was still sleeping soundly. He impatiently pulled her sleeve. Xizi struggled to open her eyes and stood up when everyone else had sat down. The teacher saw Xizi suddenly standing up and shook his head helplessly before walking away. The classmates in the class looked at Xizi, who was dazed, and burst into laughter again."
