Chapter 303 : Date
Chapter 303 : Date
In the first class on Wednesday, perhaps because the long holiday had just passed, the teacher on the stage discovered that the students in the lecture hall seemed a bit too active. Usually, these students would also whisper to each other, but most would play on their phones, space out, or sleep. Occasionally, a few listened carefully to the lecture, but today the class seemed in total chaos.
What teachers hate most is when the students are louder than their voice, even with the microphone.
In the middle, unable to bear it any longer, he slammed the desk several times, but it had no effect.
So he taught this class very angrily. The moment the bell rang to end class, he turned and left, but the problem was that the next class was his as well.
The bell rang. Lin Nan hadn't really listened to anything he said. She also had no interest in the novels she usually liked to read, just lying on the desk, pricking up her ears to eavesdrop on nearby discussions, occasionally turning to glance at Chen Yao's face, which gave her quite a bit of reassurance.
"It feels like they seem to accept me pretty well..." She lay on the desk with her hands folded to hide her expression, only revealing a pair of eyes.
"You’re pretty, so they probably found it easy." Chen Yao calmly flattered her.
Lin Nan raised her head and gave him a look. Chen Yao's face reddened as he scratched his head awkwardly. "Don't throw flirtatious glances at me, we're in class."
Tu Junhui heard their conversation and curiously glanced at the two of them. Seeing them gazing into each other's eyes, he immediately said with a face full of disdain, "You two just keep showing off. Sooner or later, I'll burn you to death."
During the break, the classmates' discussions before could only be considered whispers. Now that the teacher had also temporarily left the classroom, they let loose their voices, which coincidentally made it easier for Lin Nan to hear others' discussions about her.
She tilted her head slightly, distinguishing topics related to herself from the chaotic discussions.
Sitting in the row in front of Lin Nan were four girls. Their voices weren't loud, but because they were close, she heard them clearly.
"No wonder she got prettier and prettier last year."
"Right, a guy that pretty without even wearing makeup, how are we girls supposed to live?"
"Hey, go ask her how she takes care of her skin. I remember she wasn't this pretty in freshman year."
Lin Nan had been listening seriously to others say she was pretty, feeling overjoyed. But when she raised her head, she saw that the girl in the front row had already turned around with a smile.
"Sister Nan~" This girl's voice was soft, with a dancing tone, and her tone deliberately carried a hint of coquettishness. "How do you usually take care of your skin?"
Lin Nan was stunned. She hadn't encountered many girls in this lifetime, even fewer who acted cute with her, and as for calling her sister, there was probably only Big Dog and the girl before her.
She always felt it was hard to adapt to this form of address. Wouldn't calling her "bro" sound so much better?
She really wanted to answer "magic," but saying that out loud would probably be taken as deliberate teasing. So she pondered for a moment and asked back, "What's your name again..."
That girl helplessly answered, "Lin Kexin. I'm right after you in the new attendance order."
Lin Nan didn't know how to interact with normal girls for the first time.
Since coming to university, she'd only been fairly familiar with three girls. But when she met Lina, she'd almost gotten stabbed in the kidney. When she met Liu Xuefei, she'd been put in women's clothing. The only relatively normal one was Li Sisi, with whom she'd worked part-time with, but she was also a trash-talker.
Since she didn't know how to greet her, she might as well stick to the facts.
So she puffed out her chest and said righteously, "Natural beauty, no need for skincare!"
"Pfft." Lin Kexin burst out laughing. "I still remember you had a lot of pimples and acne marks on your face in freshman year."
This was very awkward. If Lin Nan had to recall what unfamiliar classmates looked like in freshman year, she definitely wouldn't remember the details. But she didn't expect Lin Kexin to remember still.
Lin Nan paused for a moment and answered with distress, "Maybe it's because puberty passed? Once I stopped getting pimples, my skin got better?"
"But you were so flat back then..." Lin Kexin quickly swept a glance at Lin Nan's chest, her eyes containing a smile and questioning. "Had you really reached puberty then?"
Why do you remember so clearly?!
Chen Yao lowered his head and whispered in Lin Nan's ear, "She's the class monitor. She often takes attendance for teachers and is responsible for taking photos at events. Of course she remembers what you looked like before."
However, Lin Nan's ears instantly turned red. The breath of male hormones made her sensitive ears unable to handle it.
She stammered, not knowing what to say, her head aching.
To be honest, she'd never imagined she'd encounter this kind of thing. Shouldn't classmates be concerned about her gender? Why did they start caring about skin and puberty?
Seeing her not speaking, Lin Kexin was also somewhat confused, really not understanding why Lin Nan wouldn't even tell people how she took care of her skin.
But she didn't mind much, just assuming she was rather introverted. So she took out her phone and displayed a QR code. "This is our girls' group chat. Add it? When you have time, help me rank up in LoL? Wasn't your dorm first place last year?"
"Sure."
Lin Nan heard for the first time that the girls in the class actually had a group chat.
Although she was already a girl herself and her psychology was becoming increasingly feminine, she'd even gotten a boyfriend, she still felt that dealing with females was an extremely headache-inducing matter.
Moreover, helping girls play games to rank up... Lin Nan suddenly had an impulse to quickly uninstall the game.
On the girls' side, most were discussing her appearance. The topics weren't excessive, at most the tone was a bit sour. As for the boys' side, Lin Nan even heard dirty jokes about herself.
Her face darkened a bit. Although she'd been a man for quite a while, she'd never been interested in dirty jokes, let alone obscene ones about herself.
Lin Nan lowered her head and opened the QQ group she'd just joined on her phone.
The group was very lively. She'd only joined for two minutes and the five words "welcome new sister" had already filled the screen. Then people kept asking her about skincare, and some people who weren't sure about the rumors asked about her gender.
It all felt so troublesome.
Lin Nan sighed deeply and looked at Chen Yao with pleading eyes, but Chen Yao just shrugged and shook his head helplessly.
This really wasn't his area of expertise. Usually, dealing with Lin Nan, this girl who'd debuted halfway through, was already somewhat difficult for him.
"Want to see a movie tonight? There's no class in the evening, and I have nothing to do after class." Lin Nan lamented. Simply putting these annoying matters behind her, she immediately perked up and prepared to check the movie schedules for this period.
A while ago, because of the epidemic, entertainment facilities had all closed their doors. But over the past few days, some restrictions have been lifted, and some movie theaters have reopened.
"Yes!"
Tu Junhui immediately joined in the fun, and Chen Yao also nodded right after, then looked at this two-hundred-plus-pound giant third wheel with dissatisfaction.
"Can I pick?" Lin Nan was afraid they would like thriller movies.
But Chen Yao wasn't listening to her. He was glaring at Tu Junhui, as if he could kill him with his eyes.
This is my first movie date with my girlfriend, why are you joining in!
But on the other side, Xiong Da also came over. "Then count me in too. We can make it a dorm team-building activity."
This is a date! Not dorm team-building!
