The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus

Chapter 222

The living room was very quiet. The only sounds were Fourth Master playing ball and Xiao He writing. Qin Hanyue had thought Qiao Ying would chat with him, but after introducing Xiao He to him, she left him aside again.

Qiao Ying's gaze was fixed on Xiao He's face, which was extremely similar to Feng Ying's. She was lost in thought.

Qin Hanyue looked back and forth following Qiao Ying's line of sight, confirming that she was looking at none other than Xiao He's face.

This made Qin Hanyue have to re-examine Xiao He. He had to admit that Xiao He's handsome looks and cold temperament were very attractive to young girls.

Qin Yan thought to himself: I was careless just now. This person should not be underestimated!

"I didn't quite understand this part," Xiao He pointed to a place and asked.

Qiao Ying immediately explained it to him.

The special treatment Qiao Ying gave Xiao He was something Qin Hanyue had never seen before. Was this Xiao He really just a new classmate she had just met?

They had only known each other for a few days, yet they were already so close. Even when Ye Si and Cheng Jin Yuan had just met her, they probably didn't make this much progress, did they?

Xiao He was studying, so Qin Hanyue did not want to disturb him.

Qiao Ying was completely unaware of the thousands of thoughts running through Qin Hanyue's mind next to her.

Suddenly, Qin Hanyue took out his phone and pretended to glance at the time before casually placing it on the table.

The phone screen did not turn off. It was very eye-catching.

Qiao Ying's gaze was unconsciously drawn to the bright light.

She saw that his lock screen wallpaper was none other than her - the scene from when he celebrated her birthday at Lin Qiao's castle. It was a photo of her together with the cake.

Qiao Ying stared at the screen for a moment, then turned to look at him. Her micro expressions were very interesting, going from seeming to smile to an amused look. Her final expression was as if looking at a mentally challenged child.

Did he have to be so childish?

Seeing that Qin Hanyue was deliberately playing dumb, Qiao Ying was a bit speechless. Why was he so slow on the uptake?

Was she supposed to pretend not to have seen it and ignore it, or...

"Let me see the original photo," Qiao Ying said.

Xiao He thought Qiao Ying was talking to him. He instinctively looked up at her. Seeing that she wasn't, he lowered his head to continue working on the questions.

Qin Hanyue looked at her: "Hmm?"

Seeing him frown slightly in confusion at her for a moment, then glance at his phone, understanding dawned on him. He immediately picked up his phone again.

Qiao Ying thought: He really can pretend.

Qin Hanyue opened up the photo album and brought out the picture to show her.

Qiao Ying took the phone from him.

The weather was getting warmer. Qiao Ying had changed into short sleeves, revealing a more than 10 cm long scar on her left arm.

The wound had been too deep. Even with the scar removal ointment Qin Hanyue had given her, it still left a scar. On her delicate arm, it was very eye-catching.

"It left a scar," Qin Hanyue couldn't help saying.

Following his line of sight, Qiao Ying glanced at her own arm, not taking it seriously. She asked him, "And yours?"

Qin Hanyue rolled up the sleeve of his suit jacket and unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt sleeves to reveal his arm, which also had a knife scar on it - caused because of her.

Qiao Ying looked at it without saying anything. She returned his phone.

Qin Hanyue was fixing his sleeves by himself when he heard Qiao Ying say to him, "I bought a new car. It still has the temporary license plate."

Qin Hanyue: "What numbers do you like? I'll have it delivered in the next few days."

Qiao Ying had been facing Xiao He when sitting, but at some point, she had turned to face Qin Hanyue.

The two of them spoke in hushed tones.

Qiao Ying: "Anything is fine."

Qin Hanyue: "Okay. What car did you buy?"

Qiao Ying: "A Maybach. Black."

Qin Hanyue's movements fixing his cuffs paused slightly as he looked at her. Whether it was a coincidence or not, Qin Hanyue still smiled.

He had the most Maybachs in his garage. He also mostly drove Maybach series cars when going out.

Qiao Ying stood up: "Let's eat first."

At the dinner table,

Qin Hanyue scooped soup and put dishes on Qiao Ying's plate. Xiao He sat alone opposite them, not saying a word, eyes down, eating by himself.

Even though Xiao He acted as if he had no interest in Qiao Ying, Qin Hanyue was still not at ease.

After all, Xiao He was obviously a special case when it came to Qiao Ying. Sitting together in class during the day, one-on-one tutoring after school, eating meals together - they were peers and had things to talk about. It wouldn't take long before Xiao He would definitely develop feelings for Qiao Ying, unless he was blind or gay.

As for Qiao Ying's feelings towards Xiao He...Qin Hanyue reined in his thoughts.

After the meal, Qiao Ying continued tutoring Xiao He. Feeling like he was in the way, Qin Hanyue sat for a while before voluntarily leaving.

With Qiao Ying's help, Xiao He was able to catch up with this semester's curriculum.

Qiao Ying would arrive at the classroom just in time for class, not even two minutes early being possible.

Having just arrived today, there was a hubbub in the classroom. Students from the class next door crowded around both the front and back doors to watch the excitement.

Xiao He: "I said I didn't steal it!"

"I took the computer out from your desk. Everyone saw it. What else do you have left to say? Xiao He, I don't mean to hurt you with my words, but everyone knows about your family circumstances. This computer cost 12,000 yuan. With your family situation, could you afford to buy it?"

"Xiao He, you said this was your computer. Then open up the computer and let the Class Monitor take a look to prove it. That should settle things, right?" a classmate said.

Class Monitor: "Look at what? The desktop wallpaper? There's no name written on the computer. Not to mention this was a brand new computer without any markings. He could have just wiped it clean and claim it's his."

Class Monitor: "Ever since you enrolled until now, you never had a computer. Then how is it that today, just as my computer goes missing, you suddenly have a computer?"

Counselor: "Everyone please calm down first. You two come with me to the office. Xiao He, bring the computer."

Class Monitor: "Teacher, I feel it's best to resolve this kind of matter in front of everyone. If I have wrongly accused him, I will apologize to him. But if I have not wrongly accused him, then I demand punishment to be carried out according to school rules."

Seeing the Class Monitor unwilling to go to the office with him, the Counselor was at a bit of a loss. He said to Xiao He, "Open up the computer."

Xiao He clenched his fist and silently opened up the computer.

The computer was very clean. Other than some learning materials, there was nothing else. He hadn't even logged into WeChat.

It looked just like a brand new computer that had been wiped.

Counselor: "When did you buy this computer...? Do you have a receipt?"

Xiao He: "Someone gave it to me."

The Class Monitor gave a cold snort. The observing students whispered among themselves.

Counselor: "Which friend gave it to you?"

Xiao He glared at the Counselor.

Counselor: "The teacher believes you, but something like this has happened. You should also prove your own innocence, right? It's understandable for the Class Monitor to be anxious over losing an expensive item. You can understand that, right?"

Xiao He remained silent.

Class Monitor: "Can't say which friend it was?"

The students' discussions grew louder.

"A good-looking guy like him wouldn't possibly steal things, right?"

"You can't judge a person by their looks. Just the other day some things went missing from our dorm and still haven't been found."

"I saw on the school forum that he's quite close with Qiao the Campus Belle. If he's on good terms with Qiao the Campus Belle, it wouldn't make sense for his family to be so poor they'd be questioned over buying a computer."

"He only recently became acquainted with Qiao the Campus Belle, right?"

"There's someone on the forum claiming to be his high school classmate. He said his family circumstances really are very difficult and he would often skip classes to get into fights. His body was always covered in old and new injuries. Just the other day he still had his head wrapped in gauze."

Qiao Ying squeezed in through the door: "I was the one who gave him this computer."
