T/N: Hey friends, something came up so I’ll have to miss the next upload in 6 hours, but the one in 12 hours should still be on track! Hopefully…
The two of them were running laps around the field.
In front of them, there was a couple holding hands and whispering sweet nothings to each other.
Looking at them holding hands, then looking at Yi Ran who was doing nothing beside her, Song Yu Meng angrily folded her arms and complained: “Crazy Yi, look at them and look at you, why don’t you take initiative at all!”
Yi Ran looked at her throwing a tantrum and smiled: “But if you’ve hidden your hands, how can I hold them?”
Puffing her cheeks up, Song Yu Meng retorted: “Oh, you can’t hold them if I fold my arms? You don’t know how to take my hand by force?”
“Oh…… By force, huh?” Yi Ran’s smile seemed to have a hidden meaning, as her eyes moved from Song Yu Meng’s hands to her chest.
Song Yu Meng suddenly felt like she was being stared at by a hooligan and swallowed, shrinking her neck back to give Yi Ran a look of warning.
Who knew Yi Ran’s hand would shoot out quicker than lightning to grab Song Yu Meng’s left hand and pull it out, grazing against her chest at the same time.
It was soft and pleasant to touch.
She didn’t know if Yi Ran had touched her accidentally or on purpose.
Anyway, Song Yu Meng’s face immediately flushed red as she felt breathless, staring at Yi Ran dumbly and cutely, as if never thinking she would do that.
Yi Ran held her hand and covered her smile with the other. “What? Didn’t you say I could snatch it?”
It’s really like a mute person eating coptis[1], unable to complain even if it’s bitter. Song Yu Meng was taken advantage of, but she could only grit her teeth and bear with it.
Yi Ran didn’t plan to let it go, though, giggling and saying: “But it’s quite soft……”
Song Yu Meng’s face was as red as a lobster by now, what on earth was this! So be it if she had taken advantage of her and stayed silent, why did she have to say it out loud!
She was both embarrassed and annoyed: “Shut it! You’re not allowed to say anything!”
Yi Ran smiled and held her hand tighter. “But if we’re handing hands like this, what if people see and start gossiping?”
Song Yu Meng “hmph”-ed and said imperiously: “So what? This lady can hold hands with whoever she wants, whose business is it? Do I need to care about them when I’m doing what I want?”
No wonder she’s the precious big lady, even her words are so haughty.
“Hmph, I just want to hold your hand and anger them to death!” Song Yu Meng swung their hands back and forth, as if afraid people wouldn’t notice it.
Yi Ran silently permitted her actions, her girlfriend was really cute.
A girl passing by behind saw them holding hands and recognised them, feeling shocked.
She quietly asked the girl next to her: “Eh, isn’t that Song Yu Meng and Yi Ran in front? Didn’t the forums say they were on terribly bad terms? Why do I feel like they have a really good relationship?”
She saw Song Yu Meng hugging Yi Ran’s arm and sticking to her, and asked a bit enviously: “Why do I feel like she’s sticking to Yi Ran like a little girl? Didn’t you all say that Song Yu Meng was demanding and unreasonable?”
The other girl hurriedly clamped a hand over her mouth and said: “Don’t say anymore, if the sister in front hears you, that’s it for you!”
The girl struggled to get her hand off. “Ah? Why?”
This girl was a new transfer student and still hadn’t gotten a grasp of the situation. All that she knew came from the school forums.
The other girl explained: “You’re new, so you wouldn’t know, I’ll tell you in secret. The person you absolutely can’t offend in First High School is Song Yu Meng. Although she has power and she’s pretty, she’s actually someone with a petty temper who loves to pick fights randomly. As for us commoners, we best not offend her.”
The transfer student felt it was a bit too much. “No way, she’s that powerful? Is she that unreasonable?”
The girl nodded. “Yeah, I’ll tell you something else. During our first year, there was a boy who offended her. In the end, the boy never came back to school one month later. I heard she called someone to deal with him secretly.”
After that, she hurriedly added a line: “But I only heard it from someone else. Don’t tell anybody else this.”
While the two of them were standing there, discussing Song Yu Meng in a voice low enough that they thought she couldn’t hear, Yi Ran and Song Yu Meng had pricked up their ears and could hear it perfectly well.
Yi Ran laughed. “Hahahaha, are you involved in a gang, even dealing with him secretly, hah……”
Song Yu Meng’s face was dark. Where did these rumours spread from, utter nonsense!
Yi Ran laughed amusedly and looked at Song Yu Meng’s angry face. “Miss Song, you wouldn’t really have dealt with him in secret, would you?”
“You’re just bullshitting!” Song Yu Meng said sullenly. “That boy didn’t even offend me. He didn’t come to school because he transferred out and went overseas, it had nothing to do with this lady!”
“These people just love to make up rumours!” The more she said, the angrier she got. “No way, I need to go talk to the two of them and clear things up!”
She was about to storm over, when Yi Ran pulled her into her arms.
“What are you doing!” Song Yu Meng pouted and pushed at Yi Ran disdainfully, even though she was feeling both shy and happy inside.
Yi Ran smoothed her hair down, coaxing: “Be good~ Don’t be mad. Look at how you are when you’re irritated, like a shrew. If word got out that my girlfriend is like this, wouldn’t you be embarrassed?”
Song Yu Meng hadn’t been all that angry, at most she had blamed the two girls for spreading rumours, but with Yi Ran’s words, she really flared up.
She pushed Yi Ran away angrily, not letting her hug her. Her eyes were wide and her face was flushed red with anger.
“What did you say? You dare to call this lady a shrew? You even think I’m embarrassing you?”
Song Yu Meng pointed to Yi Ran, then at herself.
Yi Ran only just realised she had said something wrong, and forcefully pulled Song Yu Meng back into her arms, coaxing: “Sorry, I said it wrongly. How could you be a shrew, it’s me, it’s me. I’m the one who’s not good enough for you and am embarrassing you~”
Song Yu Meng laughed and said arrogantly: “Hmph, that’s more like that. I’ll be the bigger person and forgive you. But I’m warning you, you better be careful with your words in the future, or this lady will call someone to take care of you in secret!”
Yi Ran’s eyes widened as she acted like she was scared. “Wow, you’re so powerful, you’re gonna get rid of me in secret?”
Song Yu Meng continued her arrogant act: “Hmph, that’s right. Now you know this lady’s power? If you don’t want to get beaten up, listen to this lady obediently!”
Yi Ran quietly chuckled. “Is that so…… If you’re so powerful, then would you dare to kiss me? Right here, right now. Would you dare?”
Red exploded over Song Yu Meng’s cheeks and she immediately became a toothless kitten. Where did all that arrogance go?
Yi Ran was still continuing: “Don’t you dare? But I dare…..”
The two of them had just about a fist’s distance between them.
There were too many people at the field and Song Yu Meng was really scared Yi Ran would be impulsive and kiss her right there. Then wouldn’t they get lectured and expelled from school?
So she pushed away Yi Ran and walked ahead, throwing out a “You… You’re crazy. There are so many people here, if you want to kiss, kiss yourself!”
Seeing her girlfriend shyly walk away, Yi Ran felt a surge of impulsiveness. She suddenly recalled that “don’t you know how to take it by force?”, a thought came to her mind.
Thus……
After lunch, a student from Class Seven saw Yi Ran pulling Song Yu Meng into a nearby empty classroom.
On this hot afternoon, he was sure the two of them were going to fight again.
Interesting.
He pretended as if he was walking by, just to sneak a glimpse inside, but the front and rear doors were all closed. There was only a tiny opening on the door that could be looked through.
He looked inside curiously, thinking he would see some exciting quarrelling.
But he say……
Yi Ran actually pushed Song Yu Meng to the wall and kissed her???!!!
This male student was goddamned shocked: The two of them were arguing, why did they suddenly kiss?!
He wondered if he saw it wrongly, so he took another look.
But it was true, he didn’t see it wrongly! Yi Ran pushed Song Yu Meng against the wall and kissed her!!!
He really didn’t dare to continue spying on them so he ran back to his classroom, continuously muttering “WTF WTF”. Students he passed by on the way all looked at him strangely, thinking he had gone mad.
After this boy calmed himself down, he took his phone out to spread the news on the school forums.
Original Poster：【Woccccc! What a shock!!! You all will absolutely not guess what I just saw in an empty classroom on level two!!! I f*cking saw Yi Ran pressing Song Yu Meng against the wall and kissing her!!! My god!】
After this was posted, the whole of First High School was stirred up.
1L[2]：【????? OP, what are you saying? You said Yi Ran pushed Song Yu Meng against the wall and kissed her? It’ll be more possible if you said Song Yu Meng was being pushed against the wall and beaten!】
2L：【I agree with the commenter above.The whole school knows how terrible their relationship is!】
Original Poster：【Bro, I’m not lying. I f*cking saw Yi Ran kiss Song Yu Meng, I’m f*cking surprised too! If I’m lying, I’ll get into a car accident!】
4L：【Me me me! I’m a new transfer student, I can testify their relationship really is very good, not as hostile as you guys say. I was running on the track with my friend today when we saw the two of them holding hands. Song Yu Meng even kept hugging Yi Ran’s arm and sticking to her and whining!】
5L：【I’m 4L’s friend, I can testify too!】
After that was a whole bunch of students going “WTF”. Looks like the shock was real.
At this moment, someone came out to ask——
【Something’s wrong, didn’t Song Yu Meng love Liu Luo Yang like she would die without him? Why did she go and kiss Yi Ran? Is she just scum trying to lead Yi Ran on?】
【Obviously you’ve not seen the real situation, Song Yu Meng stopped liking Liu Luo Yang a long time ago, okay?】
【Yeah, I’m in the same class as Song Yu Meng. I can testify she really doesn’t like Liu Luo Yang anymore. Someone once wrote “Liu Luo Yang” and “Xu Yuan” on the blackboard and Song Yu Meng even said it’s none of her business!】
【I sit in front of Yi Ran, I can report Yi Ran and Song Yu Meng are always flirting behind me. They were even caught by Chen Ling the last time, it’s really unbearable to watch!】
【I sit in front of Song Yu Meng, they’re totally a couple. I even overheard Song Yu Meng saying she likes Yi Ran. If they’re not real, I’ll score 0 marks on Gaokao!】
【WTF! Arrogant miss X obedient loyal attack dog, can we just say we ship them?】
After that, it was all a bunch of “I ship” “I ship to death” comments. But our two main leads had long sprawled out on their tables to sleep, a jacket covering both their heads. They didn’t know at all that the entire school had found out about them dating.
