"Hmm..." Teacher Dong's lips twitched slightly. She had originally intended to reduce the amount of homework, but now she simply decided not to assign any at all, as a way to give herself a break, since she also had to grade the homework.
A moment later, the bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class. Just as Yang Feng was about to speak to his innocent-looking deskmate, the beautiful homeroom teacher, Zhou Keke, walked in and loudly announced:
"Yang Feng, come out here to my office, and Han Shilan is here too."
As soon as the words were spoken, many students expressed their confusion. It was already after school, so why was the homeroom teacher calling them to the office? Had the two been caught dating?
Immediately, many students still in Class 36 of Senior High School began gossiping.
In the corridor, Zhou Keke walked ahead, carrying her Chinese textbook and teaching materials, while Yang Feng and Han Shilan walked side by side behind her.
Yang Feng moved closer to Han Shilan, turned to look at her, and whispered, "Han Shilan, you didn't tell the teacher about that, did you?"
"Hmph...serves him right." Han Shilan turned her head and said in a sweet voice, feeling a sense of satisfaction as she looked at his nervous expression.
"This..." Yang Feng was on the verge of tears. If he really told the teacher, he would be expelled or at least given a major demerit. But in his memory, Han Shilan was not that kind of girl. Had he been wrong about her all along?
"Well, my dear deskmate, I actually have a problem I can't explain to you, and I didn't want to do that kind of thing to you."
Yang Feng quickly said, trying to salvage the situation.
"Hmph..." Han Shilan turned her head to look at the other side, crossed her arms, and ignored him completely. The thought of losing her first kiss made her heart burn with anger. That was her first kiss that she had cherished for eighteen years.
"Oh dear, what should I do? I...I..." Yang Feng said, both amused and exasperated, looking at Han Shilan, whose little head was turned away from him.
Han Shilan's heart softened, and she turned back to scold, "Who cares if you take responsibility? Besides, I didn't tell the teacher."
"This..." Yang Feng was a little confused and said, "Then why did the teacher call us over?"
"I don't know either." Han Shilan shook her head, her ponytail falling to her chest.
After the two entered the office, the beautiful teacher Zhou Keke sat down in front of them and looked at Yang Feng, saying:
"Yang Feng, as a boy, why are you bullying Han Shilan, a girl? Someone reported to me that you made her cry."
"Uh..." Yang Feng frowned slightly. So someone had snitched. But how did that person know? All he knew was that Han Shilan's eyes were slightly red when she entered the classroom. No one should know that.
"Well, teacher, I didn't bully Han Shilan, it's just... it's just..." Yang Feng didn't know how to continue. Should he say that he only kissed her?
"Just what?" Zhou Keke frowned, looking at Yang Feng with a somewhat serious expression.
“But…” Yang Feng looked at Han Shilan, not knowing what to say.
Han Shilan glanced coldly at Yang Feng with her beautiful eyes, feeling a sense of pleasure, but she still didn't want Yang Feng to be expelled or given a major demerit.
Then, she parted her lips slightly and said, "Teacher Zhou, actually Yang Feng didn't bully me. I just twisted my ankle, and Yang Feng carried me to the infirmary."
"Is that really the case? Shilan, tell the truth. Don't be afraid. I guarantee that Yang Feng will be punished," Zhou Keke said, a hint of doubt flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"Yes, it's true, so please don't wrong him, Teacher Zhou." Han Shilan glanced at Yang Feng and said softly.
"Well—alright, you can go now." Seeing that Han Shilan was somewhat protecting Yang Feng, Zhou Ke didn't say anything more and waved for them to leave.
Hong Hongshuang stood somewhat gloomy in the corner by the office door. He hadn't expected that the girl he liked would protect the boy who had harassed her. What did this mean? It was obvious that the girl also liked that boy.
"Didn't you say Yang Feng would be punished this time? I didn't see him. Instead, he just swaggered out?"
Hong Hongshuang slapped the boy next to him, who was also his underling Li Dapao, to vent his anger.
"Well... I didn't expect Han Shilan to protect that guy Yang Feng. Besides, when I passed by the infirmary, I did see Han Shilan crying and staggering out. And when I was in front of her, I heard something like 'hooligan'."
Li Dapao endured a series of slaps from him, bending slightly to shield himself as he spoke.
“Brother Hong, I think Han Shilan is too kind, so she didn’t tell the teacher.” Another boy, also his underling, was named Zhang Xiaofu.

Chapter 12 Xia Yumo
Yang Feng and Han Shilan slowly came out of the office and walked back to the classroom. Many people had already left and gone home, leaving only the two of them.
Yang Feng tidied up the items on the table, looked at Han Shilan gratefully, and said, "Han Shilan, um... thank you."
"You don't need to thank me, I don't want to talk to you." Han Shilan held a book in her arms, glanced at Yang Feng, and said coldly.
"Ahem... Actually, that was my first kiss." Yang Feng walked up to Han Shilan and said with a slight blink.
"Your first kiss?" Han Shilan paused, looked at Yang Feng, and smiled slightly. She walked to the classroom door, turned around, and said with a charming smile, "I can forgive you, as long as you don't rank last in the next exam."
After saying that, she walked out of the classroom, leaving behind a beautiful silhouette.
Yang Feng smiled faintly and walked out of the classroom. With his current understanding of math, physics, and chemistry, he estimated that he could get the lowest score in the next exam.
It was already noon at school, and most people had already left. There was hardly anyone to be seen in the corridors, only the white walls and the college entrance examination results forms were posted. Yang Feng walked downstairs casually, his hands in his pockets, looking nonchalant.
Having completed several tasks, I've accumulated quite a few reward items: a low-level profession scroll and a random life skill scroll. I wonder what these two items will bring me; just thinking about it makes me a little excited.
"oops---"
As Yang Feng was thinking, his eyes weren't looking ahead when he bumped into someone. However, he was certain that he had bumped into a girl, her soft, delicate body and alluring fragrance filling the air.
"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Yang Feng paused, then quickly helped the girl up and picked up the two books that had fallen to the ground; both were literary books.
They stared at each other, both momentarily stunned. The girl had a delicate and beautiful oval face, long, arched eyebrows, a high and exquisite nose, alluring willow-leaf eyes, rosy lips, and long, flowing black hair cascading over her shoulders.
"It's you?" Xia Yumo frowned slightly, a strange look flashing in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Yang Feng, but she quickly recovered and said coldly, "You can't even see such a big person? I really don't know if you're still half asleep."
"oh…"
Yang Feng glanced at her indifferently, then turned and walked downstairs. This girl had been his classmate in the first year of high school and had even given him gifts before. However, since he had fallen into depravity, she had never given him a kind look.
