Chapter 105: Banned Couple
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Those clear words jumped into He Jing’s ears word by word, leaving her stunned for a long time.
Why did he make such a statement?
What was he explaining to her?
But…
He Jing’s mood had improved a little, not because she liked Yan Hanxi or anything, but because it was rare for someone to be free from Cheng Yi’s charms. It would be a pity if he fell for Cheng Yi’s skirt…
“As for you, Miss Merit Student…” Yan Hanxi smiled at her. “How about starring in that promotional music video with me?”
He Jing frowned. “Isn’t there a screenwriter in charge of the script and cast of the promotional MV?”
“I’ve seen the script. There are scenes involving hugging, kissing, and holding hands…” Yan Hanxi’s eyes twinkled with barely concealed delight, a flirtatious air about him. “The screenwriter is also a student. They’re probably shipping us together! ”
He Jing was speechless.
The male lead and the female supporting character could have CP fans.
What kind of evil cult was this school?
“Our CP fans call us the banned couple,” Yan Hanxi added.
He Jing’s mind was in a mess, the corners of her mouth twitching uncontrollably. “In your dreams!”
Afraid that Yan Hanxi was telling the truth, He Jing fled. Her goal? The screenwriter who dared come up with such an outrageous script. Not until she was out of the classroom that she stopped and questioned if she was being tricked by Yan Hanxi again.
Terrible! He was just plain awful!
The screenwriter was originally very satisfied with the script she had just finished writing. When she saw He Jing’s expression, she thought He Jing was dissatisfied with her script. There was not anything wrong with it, was there? It was well planned, reflecting the values of Yin High School. She had not even played up on the intimacy between the school belle and resident hunk!
No, no. After some deliberation, she gritted her teeth, cut down the screen time allocated to the school, and added a few more scenes where the school belle and hunk interacted.
Initially, everyone thought that Zhang Man’s return to the school would end the matter of voter fraud and framing. However, they never expected the school to take further disciplinary actions against Zhang Man.
Although Zhang Man had not been expelled, she had to start again from her first year of high school. Moreover, she would have to repeat the year if she failed even one subject. It was a punishment she would carry with her for all three years at Yin High School.
He Jing’s eyes darted to Yan Hanxi immediately upon hearing the news. As usual, Yan Hanxi was dozing in his seat.
Yan Hanxi buried his face in a book, using it as a makeshift blanket, tucking his nose and chin beneath its soft pages. Only his eyebrows were visible over the rim.
It framed his face, casting an irregular fan-shaped shadow over most of his face.
“Did you have anything to do with Zhang Man’s punishment?” He Jing asked.
Yan Hanxi remained motionless in this position. “How could so? It was a decision made by the school after careful consideration of the circumstances.” He Jing believed him.
Yan Hanxi had no enmity with Zhang Man, so he had no reason to make things difficult for her.
“You promised to treat me to a meal. When are you going to honor it?” Yan Hanxi asked.
Oh-
She would have forgotten about her promise had Yan Hanxi not reminded her.
“I’ll bring it to school tomorrow,” He Jing said.
“You can cook?” Yan Hanxi raised an eyebrow.
Yan Hanxi’s reaction was the same as He Sui’s. It was almost insulting. “Why? Do you think I can’t cook?” He Jing demanded a little unhappily.
“No…” Yan Hanxi smirked, his expression turning meaningful, “I was just too stupid not to see your strengths. My bad.”
Otherwise, he would have eaten that meal.
“It’s pointless to regret the past. I never knew how to cook before; I only learned how to cook recently…” He Jing replied.
Yan Hanxi was struck speechless.
What was he supposed to do in this situation? This was not part of the script!
At this point, He Jing had a bad taste in her mouth and decided to return the favor by mercilessly teasing, “Let me warn you, my cooking is so good that it poisoned a few rats to death when they ingested it.”
