Chapter 105: Chapter 103: The Deepest Hidden Person in the Class_1
"Stop fooling around, everyone."
Liu Qianqian knocked on the desk again and spoke with a somewhat serious expression, "Haven't you all felt that our new classmate looks familiar?"
"Class monitor, your words are really not fun. What do you mean by familiar? As long as it's a beautiful girl! We find all of them familiar!"
"That's right!"
"Hey hey hey, everyone stop, stop." A boy suddenly stood up and said, "Haven't you guys really felt that the new classmate looks really familiar?"
"Exactly, exactly, stop the commotion, I also feel super familiar with her," another boy chimed in.
"Right, everyone just shut up," a girl said, "The new classmate is clearly Princess Bai Xi of the Tianjiang Bai Family! Are you all blind?"
Whoosh—
The classroom instantly fell silent; a few seconds later, the previously noisy group hastily sat down, leaning onto their desks.
"I'm going...now that you mention it, I suddenly remember too!"
"Where's the phone, quick, check it! It does seem like it's really her!"
...
"All right, all right, is this how you welcome a new classmate who has just arrived?" Liu Qianqian looked helplessly at a group of silly boys, turned her head to Bai Qi, and said, "Say a few words, lest they start talking nonsense again."
Bai Qi nodded, a faint smile on her face, and said, "No need to look at your phones anymore, I'm right in front of you. Looking at pictures is pointless. As for introducing myself, I think there's no need. I just hope that in the coming university days, we can get along harmoniously and take care of each other. Thank you."
As she finished speaking, the boys who had been most rowdy earlier couldn't help feeling a little nervous, whispering to themselves.
"This...is really Princess Bai Xi!?"
"It's all over, did I talk about stealing her away just now... Will I be dragged out and executed?"
"The things I said just now... Won't I be directly sent to Tianjiang's prison!?"
...
Listening to the soft discussions of the boys below, Bai Qi still wore a polite smile, and said, "I really didn't expect everyone to like me so much, being so enthusiastic when we've just met, and I'm very happy. But please, jokes about stealing someone's partner should stop. Although it's all in good fun, I do have a fiancé, and hearing such words makes me quite troubled."
Following Bai Qi's words, the atmosphere in the classroom, which had felt a bit frozen just a moment ago, began to liven up again.
A girl whispered, "Princess Bai Xi has such a good temperament; she's not at all angry over such a minor thing."
Another girl, star-struck, admired Bai Qi and said, "The princess truly deserves her title, giving face to our class's boys while also telling them which jokes not to make. She managed it all while keeping the atmosphere harmonious. So cool."
Seeing the atmosphere was still a bit awkward, Liu Qianqian laughed and said, "With Princess Bai Xi joining our class, I believe, our life in the Medical Science Class Three will surely become even more wonderful. Let's welcome her with warm applause!"
No sooner had Liu Qianqian said this than she led the applause herself.
Immediately, all the students in the class stood up and joined in rhythm, filling the room with applause while Bai Qi nodded in appreciation.
"I'm glad Princess Bai Xi is so open-minded. Otherwise, I'd have been in big trouble today because of my big mouth!" a boy said quietly as he clapped desperately.
"Me too! Luckily, the princess has such a good temper!" another boy said as he clapped even harder.
Meanwhile, just as everyone in the class stood up, Fang Ren remained dazed on the spot, his mind still not catching up with the situation—why had she come back?
Li Xingwang, seeing Fang Ren sitting there stunned, immediately tugged at his arm and whispered, "Ranzi! What are you doing, man? That's a princess, a princess!"
"Exactly! Stand up quickly! You can't get cocky just because you're Xuan Nv's boyfriend!" Jing Haichuan also hurriedly nudged Fang Ren's arm.
"Oh oh oh."
Fang Ren immediately stood up and joined in the clapping.
"I hope everyone will stop calling me princess." Bai Qi spoke politely once more, "From now on, we're classmates. Please, just call me Bai Qi."
"I never thought I'd see Princess Bai Xi of Tianjiang with my own eyes. The scene feels a bit unreal."
"Yeah, Princess Bai Xi should be studying in Tianjiang's elite universities; why come to our school? There's no reason for it."
"Maybe it's training dispatched by her family. After all, many aristocrats let the main members of the family experience the smaller world."
...
After another bout of soft chatter in the classroom, it gradually quieted down after a while.
As class was about to start, Liu Qianqian said, "Bai Qi, please find a seat to sit down. The next class is theory. Oh, right, your textbooks haven't arrived yet. If it's okay, you can sit with me for now."
Ever since she had arrived, Bai Qi had been scanning the faces of all the students in the classroom because her purpose was Fang Ren's class. Regardless, she needed to find him first and talk about the engagement situation.
After hearing Liu Qianqian speak, Bai Qi smiled and replied, "Thank you, but I've found someone I know."
Saying so, she made her way toward the back of the classroom.
Everyone was shocked by her words and turned to look at the students in the back row.
"An acquaintance? Does the princess have an acquaintance in this class?"
"Damn, who is it? We've been together for over three years and I never realized we had such a person in our class."
...
Looking at Bai Qi walking straight toward her, Jian Qi'er's expression was curious, but inside she was extremely nervous.
Had her expression just now been discovered? Or had her identity been seen through by her at a glance? Impossible, she was still using her cultivation technique to conceal her True Qi, she shouldn't be able to be detected.
Last time, even the Xuan Nv hadn't discovered she was a Practitioner; Bai Qi was a whole major realm below the Xuan Nv, so logically, it was even less likely for her to find out.
As Bai Qi approached her, Jian Qi'er's heart started to pound violently; if she were exposed, many of the organization's missions would be hindered.
"What on earth are you doing?"
While Jian Qi'er's heart was pounding, suddenly she heard Fang Ren, who was sitting next to her, speak up. She immediately turned her head.
She saw Fang Ren slap his forehead with a helpless expression on his face as he looked at Bai Qi.
Bai Qi circled around Jian Qi'er to stand in front of Fang Ren. Seeing his expression, a smile with a hint of apology appeared on her face as she said, "Things have become a bit complicated; come out with me, I'll explain."
As soon as Fang Ren heard her words, he had a strong feeling she was referring to the matter of canceling their engagement.
"But did you have to transfer schools over it?"
In the sight of the whole class focusing on them, Fang Ren said one more thing and then immediately stood up and walked out of the classroom.
"I didn't want to either."
As Bai Qi spoke, she quickly followed him out.
With the two of them leaving the classroom, everyone watched in stunned silence as the back door became utterly quiet, recovering only a few seconds later.
"Oh my god... Listening to their conversation, it seems like those two are exceptionally close!"
"Could it be that Ranzi has been hiding some identity this whole time?"
"It's very possible! Dating the Xuan Nv and also being an acquaintance of the princess of Tianjiang! If you tell me he's just an ordinary person, who would believe it?"
"The title 'Ranzi the God' is indeed not in vain..."
"Who would've guessed, this guy seemed so ordinary for these three years, turns out he was hiding something!"
...
Liu Qianqian on the lecture podium saw this scene and her gaze suddenly became unfocused, an overpowering speculation rising in her heart, making her feel powerless.
Fang Ren... with the surname Fang, from the Tianjiang Fang Family, and Princess Bai Xi...
There were rumors that the princess of the Bai Family was betrothed to the eldest young master of the Fang Family since childhood, and that young master was said to have been away from his family since a young age...
With this thought, Liu Qianqian's mind became a whirlwind, but she quickly started to shake her head inwardly, denying her own speculation.
No, that's impossible. Even if Fang Ren is related to the Fang Family, he can't possibly be the eldest young master. Moreover, the eldest young master is already betrothed to Bai Qi, so how could he possibly be dating the Xuan Nv?
Right, such a thing is impossible.
With this thought, Liu Qianqian began to feel that her previous speculation was a bit unrealistic, and her turbulent thoughts gradually calmed down.
However, Jian Qi'er, sitting in the last row, became nervous as she watched Fang Ren walk out of the classroom directly with Bai Qi.
Although the organization had already investigated that Fang Ren was the eldest young master of the Fang Family, according to what Fang Ren said himself, he had been abandoned by his family since childhood and had never had contact with any family members. So how exactly was he connected to Bai Qi?
This was way too abnormal!
Furthermore, she had told him all the secrets on her phone today, even revealing everything about Bai Qi. If Fang Ren accidentally mentioned something in front of Bai Qi, wouldn't she be doomed!
Biting her lip, Jian Qi'er immediately ran to the back door of the classroom and leaned against the wall, peeking out to see Fang Ren and Bai Qi not far away.
If Fang Ren turned his head back and looked this way, she would immediately use eye signals to remind him. However, with Bai Qi's realm... she would probably notice something was off.
"Hey, hey, silly girl, why are you peering out the door when those two went out to talk?" Li Xingwang said from the back row.
"Huh?" Jian Qi'er was startled and quickly turned nervous and timid, "I—I—I was just curious how those two knew each other."
"Oh man, I'm curious too. How come I didn't peek out?" Jing Haichuan laughed, "I think you, girl, just want to make a move on Ranzi now that Xuan Nv has gone, don't you?"
"I! I—I certainly did not!"
Jian Qi'er's face turned red, and she immediately ran to her original seat to sit down, looking indignant.
