The Buggiest System V1

And more so the fact that he completed the quest inadvertently because of his inhuman cooking skills.

.....

Lunchtime ended.

Everyone rushed back to their seats in fear of the next teacher.

However, contrary to their expectations, Sir Zhang did not enter the cla.s.sroom after lunch.

Everyone, apart from a select few, showed delight upon this wonderful occurrence. Especially Zhou Lei, who was scared to death the other day...

Fan Xinyue felt suspicious. "He disappeared without a trace yesterday, and he isn"t here today? Where is that teacher?"

On the other hand, Lu Xi felt nervous. She heard big news from two of her friends yesterday: "The Mu Shu Chang group was a.s.saulted yesterday by one person — The Iron Grip. Most of their people are now injured."

"I really have to thank those two... If not for Su Yue and He Lijia, I wouldn"t have known..."

What she didn"t know was that those two girls, Makeup and Bignose respectively, just blurt that out as an excuse to following her all the way to her home after she caught them peeking from the corner of the street.

"That Iron Grip really is our teacher, ah..."

Since Zhang Liu wasn"t around, Zhou Lei went to Lin Hanying"s desk again.

The person in front of Lin Hanying was using her phone. She tapped with ferociousness as she argued with someone on the Internet.

Lin Hanying saw that Zhou Lei was approaching her, making her the target of envy from a bunch of students. "d.a.m.n it... Why does he have to be so handsome!"

She once thought that being a top tier beauty was a blessing, a gift from the heavens. Multiple experiences happened to her that made her think otherwise.

"Zhou Lei doesn"t take his handsomeness to heart — he doesn"t let it affect his pride like I did..."

Zhou Lei tapped the girl using her phone.

"Huh?" With an angry tone, the girl continued, "What do you want--"

Shock evident on her face, she struggled to speak, "Z- Z- Zhou Lei? What are you doing here?"

"Can we... switch seats? Just for this period, please!" Zhou Lei put his palms together in a begging manner. This girl had been his cla.s.smate for a long time but only now did he speak to her properly.

"S- Sure!" The girl didn"t continue what she was about to say. "Any request you have of me... I would agree! Especially if it"s..."

"Thanks!" Zhou Lei sighed in relief. "So it"s true that she was a kind girl."

The girl evacuated from her seat immediately and headed to Zhou Lei"s desk, while the latter sat on her seat.

"Ying, h.e.l.lo again~" In a good mood, Zhou Lei looked at Lin Hanying with a playful expression.

Lin Guiying raised her eyebrow. "What are you doing?"

"Nothing... I"m just, you know..." Zhou Lei felt less stress when he was with her.

Fan Xinyue, at the side, stared at the two talking and occasionally laughing with jealousy.

"Hmph, at least I"m the first one to meet him outside school!"

Yesterday, she begged her mom to let her recommend someone for the modeling job. She strongly disagreed at first, but she eventually agreed with some conditions. Before she did so, everything she was saying to Zhou Lei was based on her own gibberish and some files that she saw lying on her mother"s desk.

"Just you wait, Lin Hanying! You might be comrades in being transfer students, but soon, we"re going to have a professional relationship!"

After gloating to Lin Hanying in her mind, she thought about something else...

"What is the connection between Zhang Liu and those gimp suit wearers? That "Big Tree" seemed to have been afraid of Teacher Zhang."

Meanwhile, Ye Muqi stared at her desk. She basically gave up on Zhou Lei after witnessing the scene yesterday. Besides, her attraction was merely a superficial one — she didn"t need to get so worked up about it.

Instead, she thought about what to do when it was time for her to return home as her father was extremely mad at her this time.

He had enough of her avoidance and declared that, from now on, he would punish her every time she missed dinner.

"Stupid dad... I don"t want to eat with you because you"re too strict."

She sighed, took out a textbook, then started to read in advance.

As it was history cla.s.s, Ma Xiaoli would sleep whether or not the teacher was teaching. She felt a little jealous when Zhou Lei talked to Lin Hanying of his own volition, but she decided not to interfere as it was too troublesome. It already took her much effort to approach him and offer her pillow last time.

While all of these people reacted in different ways to Lin Hanying and Zhou Lei talking, the two were leisurely talking with each other.

"Oh, Ying, let me tell you, while I was waiting for you yesterday," Zhou Lei recalled last night.

Hearing what Zhou Lei said, Lin Guiying"s eyes darkened. "I don"t want to talk about that..."

"I went to a café for the first time!" Zhou Lei spoke with enthusiasm. It was a thrilling experience for him, after all.

"Did he just admit it that easily? That he was lying earlier?" Lin Guiying raised her eyebrows subtly.

"And then I met someone familiar there..." Zhou Lei glanced at Fan Xinyue who used her phone.

Lin Guiying turned her head away for a second. "I remember that."

"After that, I went back to the arcade." Zhou Lei continued, oblivious to his friend"s emotions.

As soon as she heard that, Lin Guiying"s eyes widened. "What, you went back?"
