“Eh? Not lipstick?” The tissue in Han Heng’s hand was completely clean.
Only then did Jiang Fuyue react.
Behind the ear…
No wonder she didn’t see it when she washed up!
This perv*rt…
“Maybe a mosquito bit me.” She stayed calm and gave an explanation.
Han Heng didn’t think much of it: “Then remember to spray some floral water.”
“Okay.”
At this moment, Han Shen, who had been quietly eating beside them, suddenly spoke: “In this season, where would a mosquito come from?”
Han Heng froze, “Right, are there mosquitoes in winter?”
Jiang Fuyue: “Oh, then maybe it was last night, when I was feeding Little Mang in the garden, some bug bit me.”
Han Heng: “Is it serious?”
“Other than being a little itchy, everything’s fine.”
“You should go to the back garden less often. The grass is thick, lots of bugs, and the dew is heavy.”
“Okay.” Jiang Fuyue nodded obediently. “Then I’ll head back to school.”
…
Back in the dorm, Jiang Fuyue finally dared to take out a mirror. Sure enough, behind her left ear near the side of her neck, a small area was red.
Cen Qiaoqiao hopped over: “Sister Yue, what are you looking at? Why do you need two mirrors?”
Before Jiang Fuyue could speak, she already saw it: “Eh? You’ve got a red mark here. Looks like a legendary hickey strawberry!”
Jiang Fuyue: “…”
“Actually, I always wondered whether kissing can really suck out a strawberry mark. How tender does the skin have to be, and how strong does the force have to be, for one bite to leave a print? It’s probably something novels make up to trick innocent girls.”
“…”
“Sister Yue, why aren’t you talking? What do you think? Can you really kiss one out or not?”
Uh!
“It should… be possible?”
“Seriously? Shouldn’t we have some kind of experiment to prove it, or maybe some sampling, data collection, and statistical analysis? If different people produce different results, then we’d need to discuss categories too, right? Wow, just turn it into a research project! Maybe we could even publish in CNS!”
Cen Qiaoqiao’s eyes shone. She looked like she wanted someone to praise her genius.
Jiang Fuyue: “…” You’re not a genius. You’re a mad genius!
After resting for a week, Jiang Fuyue prepared to start a new research topic.
But since she didn’t have a clear direction yet, she didn’t spend time in the lab. She just attended class on schedule every day.
“Eh? Sister Yue actually came to class?”
“Doesn’t she need to run experiments?”
“Seems like all her projects are done. She hasn’t chosen a new one yet, so she comes to class when she’s free!”
“My free time is gaming and late-night snacks; the top student’s free time is attending class. One word: respect!”
“I finally get to attend class with Sister Yue. Why do I suddenly feel filled with strength?”
“I’m in the same class as Sister Yue. I can brag about this for life.”
“Did anyone notice? As soon as Sister Yue walks in, the whole class atmosphere tightens. It’s like when leadership inspects.”
“If you don’t sit up straight and perform well, you’re waiting to get scolded by Sister Yue? Did you forget Liang Jingzhou’s snake incident during the break?”
That person felt a chill down his back. His scalp tingled. He shot upright instantly, eyes forward, listening seriously.
…
Coming back to class this time, Jiang Fuyue clearly noticed the class discipline had improved a lot.
She thought it was because Li Chen and the other rich heirs had stopped messing around.
But gradually she realized it wasn’t just those four. Even the other students were behaving so well it was unbelievable.
And what was even stranger, during the entire class, she didn’t spot a single student playing with their phone or napping.
Not normal!
Way too not normal!
“What’s going on? Did everyone collectively take the wrong medicine?”
Cen Qiaoqiao, sitting beside her, heard only half and asked, “Who took the wrong medicine?”
Jiang Fuyue shared her confusion. Cen Qiaoqiao looked at her with a strange expression: “You don’t know?”
“Should I know?”
Cen Qiaoqiao’s mouth twitched. Fine…
“After military training, everyone gradually started behaving.”
“Explain more.”
Five minutes later—
Jiang Fuyue: “So, Li Chen and the others are actually the heroes?”
“I don’t know about ‘heroes,’ but if anyone misbehaved, they directly beat them up.”
Jiang Fuyue fell into thought.
After class, she went to the principal’s office.
She didn’t stay long, maybe ten minutes. No one knew what she talked about with Xiao Shan.
But the next day, Li Chen, Gu Huaiyu, Cheng Lian, and Liang Jingzhou were all summoned.
Liang Jingzhou: “Did we cause trouble?”
Gu Huaiyu frowned: “Impossible, right? We’ve behaved really well lately. We even improved the whole class’s discipline.”
Liang Jingzhou: “Then why is the principal calling the four of us? To treat us to a meal? To go sing? Don’t tell me he’s taking us to a bathhouse for massages?”
Li Chen’s face darkened: “Can your brain circuits be normal?”
“What’s abnormal about my brain circuits? Sister Yue said everything is possible!”
Li Chen: “…”
“Hey,” Gu Huaiyu nudged Cheng Lian, who hadn’t spoken at all. “Why do you think Xiao Shan called us?”
Cheng Lian, hands in pockets, as always said little: “Go and you’ll know.”
“…”
Principal’s office.
Xiao Shan smiled as he looked at the four tall, handsome boys. Before he even spoke, his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
The four: “?” This feeling… does not seem good.
“I heard you’ve managed Peiya Class very well lately. Not only has class discipline improved, but most students have started studying seriously.”
The four exchanged looks rapidly.
Xiao Shan pretended not to notice and continued, “Doing well yourself shows self-discipline; but influencing others to improve shows charisma. And you have that charisma!”
“?”
“Ahem…” Xiao Shan cleared his throat and continued, “So, I’ve decided to establish a Campus Inspection Committee. It will be responsible for rectifying school conduct, checking discipline, and will have the authority to directly deal with violations of school rules! The detailed regulations will be discussed with the board soon.”
“When it’s ready, you four will be the first committee leaders. The entire Ming University’s discipline will be under you. Well? Not bad, right? Then it’s settled!”
“?” Could you at least give us a chance to object? D*mn! Not even a pause in between?!
The four left even more confused than when they came—
They just went to the principal’s office. How did they suddenly become committee leaders? And in charge of campus discipline?
Liang Jingzhou: “I didn’t mishear, right? The principal wants us to be in charge?”
Li Chen, speechless: “You’ve asked for the Nth time.”
“Then answer again.”
“…D*mn it, how many times do I have to say it? Yes yes yes yes! Do you understand now?! Did you remember?!”
Liang Jingzhou: “…Oh. I have another suggestion: next time, be gentle. Don’t be so fierce.”
Li Chen: “…”
Gu Huaiyu suddenly clicked his tongue: “What do you think Xiao Shan is plotting? Everyone knows we’re Ming University’s… uh… troublemakers. And now he’s making us leaders, giving us authority, and even setting up a new department for it.”
“No idea.”
“No clue.”
“Can’t figure it out.”
“So do we accept or not?”
Li Chen: “I don’t care. Either is fine.”
Liang Jingzhou rubbed his hands and chuckled: “To be honest, after all these years of studying, I’ve never been an official.”
Gu Huaiyu: “Ahem! Same here…”
Cheng Lian: “Then let’s do it.”
Decision made.
Three days later, the school announced the establishment of the Campus Inspection Committee, mainly responsible for maintaining school discipline, assisting in rule enforcement, and supervising the student council.
The school appointed Li Chen as the first chairman. Liang Jingzhou, Gu Huaiyu, and Cheng Lian would serve as vice-chairmen. From the date the documents were issued, they took office immediately and began performing their duties.
The moment the news came out, the whole school exploded.
“Setting up an inspection committee is fine. But why let Li Chen and Liang Jingzhou’s group run it? One look and you know it’s unreliable!”
“Just call it the ‘Heirs Committee,’ hahaha…”
“Is the school planning to fight evil with evil?”
“But I heard under their management, Peiya Class’s discipline improved a lot?”
“Says who? I’ve never heard that.”
“Professor X! He praised Peiya Class in our lecture before. You must’ve spaced out.”
“That’s different! Before it was one class. Now it’s the whole school!”
“Is there a difference between a class and a school? Basically the same thing.”
“The heirs are starting their careers!”
“I think it’s good. Whether they can actually control things is another matter. But at least they have the status. They dare to manage, and they have the confidence to manage.”
“Exactly! If you let normal students try, who the h*ll would listen to them?”
“…”
No matter how people discussed it, the establishment of the Campus Inspection Committee was finalized.
And since they decided to manage, they naturally had to manage well, manage firmly, and manage creatively!
With that mindset, the four began acting.
Starting with hiring patrol members at high pay. The school’s funding wasn’t even enough to treat the recruits to a Western meal, so the four paid out of their own pockets to upgrade the benefits. The team was quickly assembled.
Next, they drafted a strict patrol schedule.
Once a violation of school rules was spotted, every person caught earned a reward of two thousand.
There were still a series of follow-up measures……
Because the few of them were too ruthless and too fast, it caused immense shock.
In less than two weeks, Ming University’s school spirit was completely renewed.
……
Xiao Shan looked at Jiang Fuyue, whose brows and eyes carried a smile, and couldn’t help giving her a thumbs-up: “Your method really works.”
Jiang Fuyue shrugged, got up, and prepared to leave.
“Hey, you still haven’t said whether you’re going to the awards ceremony.” Xiao Shan hurriedly stopped her.
Last week, the selection results for the “Top Ten University Students in the Imperial Capital” came out, and with the astonishing achievement of three CNS papers, Jiang Fuyue was elected first.
This was the first time in nearly twenty years that a Ming University student was selected.
Today Xiao Shan specifically called her to the office for this matter.
Jiang Fuyue: “Time?”
“Next Wednesday.”
“Should be okay.”
“Not ‘should’—” Xiao Shan got anxious, “Can you be more certain?”
Jiang Fuyue: “I can go, but the premise is that there are no unexpected incidents, unexpected incidents including but not limited to earthquakes, typhoons, heavy rain, hail, and other natural disasters and extreme weather, as well as other accidents, for example……”
“Stop stop! Just stick with ‘should’.”
Jiang Fuyue left.
Xiao Shan: “……” He had never seen anyone this cocky.
……
After winter arrived, it got dark earlier and earlier.
After Jiang Fuyue left the administration building, she went straight to the lab. By the time she gathered all her materials and came out, the sky was already dark, and the streetlights around her were lit.
She hadn’t eaten yet and planned to go to the cafeteria to grab a late-night snack.
As soon as she walked in, her steps halted, and she immediately turned to leave.
Unfortunately, Lin Zhaodong had already seen her and immediately chased after her: “Hey, why are you running? I’m not a wild beast, am I going to bite you to death?”
Jiang Fuyue stopped and lifted her eyes: “Aren’t you bored? How many times has this been?”
“Not bored at all. Who cares how many times, as long as I run into you.”
“What exactly do you want?”
“Heh heh,” he grinned, the breath he exhaled forming a puff of white mist, the tip of his nose flushed, no idea whether from the cold or naturally this way, “Whatever I want to do, I’ll do.”
Jiang Fuyue rolled her eyes: “Dreaming again?”
“Even in dreams I still have to say it—heh heh, I’m here waiting for you. Isn’t it obvious?”
“Waiting for me for what?”
“To chase you!”
A similar conversation had happened many times already. Yes, the person saying he wanted to chase Jiang Fuyue was Yellow hair from Ocean University during the seven-school joint training.
Full name—Lin Zhaodong!
Who knew what went wrong with his brain. Not long ago, Jiang Fuyue ran into him in Ming University’s cafeteria. She thought he was there to mooch food, but unexpectedly he said he came for her?
Jiang Fuyue’s first reaction was that he came to settle a score.
She had shot him during the exercise; maybe he came to avenge himself.
Seeing her ready for a fight, the man suddenly said—
“Can you tell me your WeChat now? I want to chase you.”
Jiang Fuyue on the spot: “???”
Was his way of revenge… running?
Whoever caught the other would lose?
“Why are you so shocked? Never received a confession? Why are you so unskilled……” He even sounded dissatisfied.
“Confession? Who?”
Lin Zhaodong: “Me confessing to you, of course!”
Only then did Jiang Fuyue understand that “chase” didn’t mean that “chase.”
“Thanks, but I don’t like you.” No beating around the bush and leaving no room for misunderstanding.
Yellow hair wasn’t surprised at all, nor did he look hurt. He even grinned and said, “I know you don’t like me, but that doesn’t stop me from chasing you.”
Jiang Fuyue: “?” I don’t even like you, what are you chasing for?
As if reading her mind, Lin Zhaodong curled his lips lightly: “Not liking me now doesn’t mean you won’t like me later. Who can say for sure about the future? Maybe after chasing you for a while, you’ll like me? Besides, my family background isn’t bad, my body’s great, my looks—well, not terrible, I guess, a straight and proper young man, you—”
“I have a boyfriend.” Jiang Fuyue cut him off directly.
Yellow-hairfroze.
But he quickly let out a snort and laughed, “Boyfriend? Where is he? Let him come out and compare with me.”
“……”
“Besides, he’s just a boyfriend, not a husband. You can change boyfriends anytime. Someone like me is a good deal, definitely not a loss!”
“……” His face must be made of brick walls.
Just like that, Jiang Fuyue was entangled by Yellow hair.
He came to Ming University multiple times specifically to wait for her, asking every time whether she would add him on WeChat. Even though there were easier ways to get her number, Lin Zhaodong refused, she had to personally agree and add him face-to-face.
Too bad Jiang Fuyue rejected him every time.
So yellow hair still hadn’t added her as a friend.
This time was no exception—
Jiang Fuyue: “No.”
“Oh.” He spread his hands, shrugged, not a hint of disappointment, “Then I’ll ask again next time.”
“……”
Lin Zhaodong: “Didn’t you come to the cafeteria to eat? Are you planning to starve yourself just to avoid me?”
To be honest, yes.
But Jiang Fuyue: “I won’t starve. I can eat off-campus.”
“Tsk, the little restaurants outside the school can’t compare to Ming University’s cafeteria at all. Come on, let’s go eat! I haven’t eaten yet either!”
Jiang Fuyue: “?”
Yellow hair had already walked ahead, then turned to urge her: “Hurry up, if you keep dawdling, the crab legs and sashimi will be gone. Those two are the best. The line already started earlier……”
Jiang Fuyue: He even knows the menu well.
Ten minutes later, the two of them sat down across from each other, each with a tray—
Yellow hair focused on eating.
Jiang Fuyue was hungry too.
Neither spoke; they would talk after eating.
Once they were mostly done, Yellow hair smacked his lips and gathered the pile of crab shells he had bitten open: “Your Ming University food is really good. Should I transfer here?”
Jiang Fuyue was wiping her hands. Upon hearing this, her mouth twitched wildly: “National Defense students aren’t allowed to transfer, thanks.”
“You can break the contract. Just pay two hundred thousand.”
“Whatever you want.” She stood up, took her tray to the return area, and left.
Lin Zhaodong chased after her relentlessly: “Hey, you really won’t consider it?”
“Consider what?”
“Being my girlfriend.”
Jiang Fuyue was too lazy to respond. No matter how many times she said it, this man wouldn’t listen; next time he’d act the same.
“You said you have a boyfriend, but I’ve come to wait for you so many times, how come I’ve never seen him?”
“He’s abroad.”
“Heh……” Lin Zhaodong didn’t believe it at all, standing there leisurely with a look that said: Go on, keep making things up.
Just then, Liang Jingzhou, who was walking toward the cafeteria, suddenly froze mid-step, staring ahead: “Isn’t that Yellow hair from Ocean University? D*mn! What is he trying to do to Sister Yue? His hand is already reaching out—”
