Seeing her look like she was waiting for the bus to go to driving school, Lin Xian couldn't help but ask, "Where are your so-called bodyguards? Why didn't they come to see you off?"

The so-called bodyguards were Yan Xiaoman's two admirers: one was Lin Junkai from Lin Xian's class, the other was Wang Hong from the neighboring class.

Of course, quite a few students in Experimental High School No.1 liked Yan Xiaoman, but these two were the most active suitors. Most others just secretly admired her.

Hearing this, Yan Xiaoman tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and replied calmly, "Don't say nonsense. What bodyguards? We're just classmates."

"I heard Wang Hong confessed to you a few days ago?" Lin Xian asked with curiosity.

Wang Hong was the bodyguard from the neighboring class. He looked quite ugly but came from a relatively wealthy family, so he could be considered a second-generation rich kid.

A few days ago, at a birthday party for a girl in the other class, Wang Hong, who had been a bootlicker for three years, finally couldn't hold back and confessed. The class's chat group was buzzing with this news.

"I rejected him. I don't plan to date until after college graduation," Yan Xiaoman said as if it were nothing important.

Hmm, a goddess's standard way to reject someone.

As for whether she really didn't want to date... haha, only ghosts know.

Lin Xian was not surprised by the outcome of Wang Hong's confession.

A bootlicker is always a bootlicker. Even if Wang Hong is a rich second-generation kid, he's just a wealthy bootlicker.

Bootlickers end up with nothing!

At that moment, Yan Xiaoman took out her phone to check the time and suddenly said, "Lin Xian, riding a scooter with one hand is dangerous."

"What's so dangerous about one-handed riding? I can drive a Ferrari with one hand, that's way cooler!" Lin Xian joked.

What the heck?

Driving a Ferrari with one hand?

Yan Xiaoman was stunned, clearly impressed by that comment.

Normally, a guy hearing that would say, "Yeah, it's pretty unsafe. Let me give you a ride, you can hold the umbrella behind me."

Even the most straightforward guys wouldn't be this blunt.

Actually, Yan Xiaoman's meaning was clear to Lin Xian, but he deliberately didn't take the bait.

Yan Xiaoman was someone who was excellent in looks, temperament, and grades, but a bit tsundere in personality.

Even though she was rushing to driving school and wanted a ride, she insisted Lin Xian had to offer first.

So,Lin Xian decided to tease her on purpose.

For a while, the two stared at each other, the atmosphere a bit awkward.

The bus stop's canopy only shaded half the platform, and Yan Xiaoman's lower body was mercilessly baked by the scorching sun. In contrast, Lin Xian leaned under his umbrella, looking very comfortable.

Eventually, Yan Xiaoman succumbed to the heat and couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to driving school to practice?"

"Yeah! Why?" Lin Xian smiled mischievously, pretending to be clueless.

"You..."

Yan Xiaoman wasn't stupid. She'd figured out Lin Xian was teasing her.

She was so mad!

If this were anyone else at Experimental No.1, many would be fighting to give her a ride.

Just then, a white BMW 520 slowly pulled up in front of the bus stop.

The window rolled down, and Wang Hong's acne-covered face peeked out.

Seeing Yan Xiaoman, Wang Hong exclaimed happily, "Xiaoman, why are you here?"

Damn, didn't this guy just get rejected?

Only two or three days later, he had the nerve to show up again.

But Lin Xian soon understood.

Yan Xiaoman's rejection was clever. Saying she wouldn't date before graduating college didn't hurt Wang Hong's pride and left him a glimmer of hope.

If she won't date until after graduation, then she could date him after!

Yan Xiaoman didn't expect to see Wang Hong and was slightly stunned before softly saying, "I'm going to driving school to learn how to drive."

"I'll give you a ride! It's on my way!" Wang Hong's face lit up, and he spoke very politely.

What the hell does "on my way" mean?

Ignoring his family background, if your emotional intelligence is this low and you still manage to get a girl, I'll eat dirt on livestream.

Lin Xian couldn't help but scoff inside.

He really wanted to say to Wang Hong, "Bro, next time just throw money at the girls. Normal pickup lines aren't for you."

As expected, Wang Hong's words made Yan Xiaoman frown.

Besides being unpleasant to hear, there was his looks.

Yan Xiaoman knew judging by appearance wasn't good, but Wang Hong's acne-filled face was hard to look at. She even had trypophobia, and seeing his face gave her goosebumps all over.

Compared to that, Lin Xian looked much better.

Though Lin Xian's looks weren't top-tier, his smooth, fair skin and refined features gave a clean, fresh impression.

So, Yan Xiaoman didn't hesitate and said, "Thanks, but no trouble. Lin Xian already promised to give me a ride to driving school."

Hearing this, Lin Xian was stunned.

Wait, when did I say that?

Before he could react, Yan Xiaoman had already stepped forward and sat sideways on the scooter's back seat.

Immediately, a faint fragrance wafted from behind.

At this moment, Lin Xian definitely couldn't make Yan Xiaoman get off—that would be too un-gentlemanly.

"You hold the umbrella," he said, handing her the umbrella.

Then he waved at Wang Hong and said, "We're leaving now, see you!"

Watching them leave, Wang Hong's expression darkened as he slammed the steering wheel hard.

...

On the electric scooter, Yan Xiaoman sat gracefully and kept a respectful distance from Lin Xian.

Sensing the gentle fragrance near his nose, Lin Xian smiled and said, "Campus Belle Yan, you owe me a favor this time."

"You stingy ghost!" Yan Xiaoman snorted lightly.

After a brief silence, Yan Xiaoman asked, "Lin Xian, do you like Zhang Mengyao?"

Zhang Mengyao was the class president of Senior Three Class Eight, just as beautiful as Yan Xiaoman, and also one of the three campus belles.

Faced with this sudden question, Lin Xian was puzzled, "Why do you say that?"

"Still want to deny it?" Yan Xiaoman said proudly. "Last week when we went to get our admission notices, I noticed you staring at Zhang Mengyao the whole time."

That day, Zhang Mengyao wore a revealing outfit and had a great figure, naturally attracting many eyes.

"It's not like I like her. Everyone loves beauty! Besides, I wasn't the only one looking at her," Lin Xian replied, then teased, "But Campus Belle Yan, you're the one paying so much attention to me. Are you interested?"

"Dream on!" Yan Xiaoman lightly tapped his shoulder, her tone indifferent, "What's so special about Zhang Mengyao?"

As expected, there's rivalry everywhere between women—even campus belles are no exception.

Lin Xian chuckled and said word by word, "Because of Briar (implying big breasts)!"

Yan Xiaoman didn't expect Lin Xian to be so direct, and blushed slightly, snorting coldly, "Pervert!"

Just as the two were about to fall silent, Yan Xiaoman's voice came again in Lin Xian's ear.

"Do you guys all like Briar?"

Hearing this, Lin Xian almost laughed out loud.

If Yan Xiaoman had one flaw, it was that she was scatterbrained.

Lin Xian coughed and forced back his laughter, then said seriously, "Not really. Different people like different things. Some like Briar, some like Bramble, and some like Logger Vick..."
