Yan Xinxin turned her head at the sound, surprised to see Xu Nuo’s handsome face.
"What are you doing here?"
Who would have thought that the boy in the white shirt lazily resting on the desk was actually Xu Nuo!
At this moment, he looked wide awake, his obsidian-clear eyes softening as they landed on Yan Xinxin.
"I wanted to see you."
Yan Xinxin was taken aback, then slowly came to understand something.
The short-haired girl exclaimed, looking at Ling Siyu.
"He seems like your school’s heartthrob, Xu Nuo! Is he dating Yan Xinxin?"
"Nonsense! Xu Nuo is Luo Yiyi’s boyfriend, our school’s beauty queen!"
Ling Siyu denied it fiercely.
"Which pig-headed source did you hear that I’m dating that lovestruck fool?"
Xu Nuo retorted on the spot, causing Ling Siyu’s expression to freeze.
"If your gossip skills are so sharp, how come you didn’t hear about my public confession to Yan Xinxin?"
"..." Ling Siyu was awkwardly speechless, unable to say a word.
"Wow! A public confession! How romantic!"
The short-haired girl exclaimed again, instantly becoming a little fangirl of Xu Nuo. Her eyes sparkled with pink hearts, and even her cheeks turned rosy.
"Yan Xinxin, you two look so good together! One so handsome, the other so beautiful!"
"... Xu Nuo and I are just ordinary friends, not a couple."
Seeing the misunderstanding, Yan Xinxin immediately explained.
She glanced up at Xu Nuo, whose face showed hardly any change in emotion.
Yan Xinxin shook her head with a smile, then introduced herself.
"Hello, I’m Yan Xinxin."
"I know you, you’re the campus beauty of Ancheng University. I’m from the Business School next door. Hi, I’m Lu Chenxue!"
"What a unique name."
Lu Chenxue beamed with a smile, dimples appearing sweetly at the corners of her lips.
Ling Siyu watched from the side, feeling particularly irked.
She had made a point to arrive early to build a good rapport with the people here, yet unexpectedly, that seemingly naive Lu Chenxue had quickly bonded with Yan Xinxin!
"The instructor is here!"
"Find a seat and don’t let this pettiness affect your mood."
Xu Nuo turned around to say softly to Yan Xinxin, and then returned to his seat.
Ling Siyu’s face darkened further.
Yan Xinxin wasted no time and found a seat.
The instructor soon entered the classroom, a competent-looking woman in her thirties, with short black hair, wearing black-framed glasses and a black professional suit.
She handed out a jewelry identification manual and then officially started the class.
Adjusting her black-framed glasses, her eyes behind the lenses looked especially sharp.
"Who knows what the most precious gemstone in the world is..."
Ling Siyu raised her hand, glanced disdainfully at Yan Xinxin, and then confidently spoke.
"It’s a cat’s eye stone!"
"Who allowed you to make random comments in my class?"
The female instructor said coldly with dissatisfaction.
Ling Siyu raised her eyebrows, a bit annoyed.
"Teacher, it was you who asked the question."
"Did I finish my sentence?"
The female instructor countered.
"First, interrupting me is very rude; second, answering questions without standing up is disrespectful to me; third, your self-righteous answer is completely wrong!"
"If it weren’t for the fact that you were all directly assigned here by various units for training, I certainly wouldn’t teach students like you who are so presumptuous."
The female instructor looked up at Yan Xinxin.
"This student, you answer my question, what is the most precious gemstone in the world?"
