Don't think of rebirth.

Gu Qinghuan rubbed his eyes, wondering if there was something wrong with his eyesight.

She seemed to have seen a hand reaching out from under the table? And it snatched her bowl?

The long table for this buffet was simply made by putting together the existing tables in the cafeteria and covering them with a tablecloth.

Someone is hiding inside? What are they doing? Gu Qinghuan wanted to lift the tablecloth to look inside, but before she could squat, Chen Zelin's voice rang out: "Why are you just standing there?"

Gu Qinghuan picked up another bowl: "There are so many delicious foods, I don't know which one to choose."

Chen Zelin couldn't help but laugh: "Then try everything and eat more."

Gu Qinghuan nodded. With her head teacher nearby, she naturally couldn't lift the tablecloth to find out what was going on, so she just served herself some rice.

Chen Zelin didn't leave, and mentioned another thing: "The head teacher of Class 2 told me that you and Yu Xin donated money to Su Lin?"

"It was Xin and Yu Xin who donated, not me." Gu Qinghuan habitually wanted to call "Xinbao", but stopped herself and changed her words, "It was Qin Yue who first found the fundraising proposal. Yu Xin and I were just discussing how to use the money, and he suggested donating it."

"Yu Xin and I went to learn about Su Lin's situation and thought she was a good fit, so we donated it to her." Gu Qinghuan added, "Besides, it's not in vain. Su Lin's grades are so good, we asked her to help us with our studies."

"Tutoring," Chen Zelin was a little surprised, but he quite agreed with their approach. "Indeed, Su Lin was recruited with the highest score in the city, and she is also the top student that the school is looking forward to. It is very suitable for you to have her tutoring."

After saying this, Chen Zelin was a little entangled: If Su Lin tutors the students in his class, will it affect her own studies? Will the head teacher of Class 2 fight with him?

Let’s not consider things that haven’t happened yet.

Chen Zelin comforted himself in his heart and decided not to think about it anymore. He said a few more words to Gu Qinghuan and went to another table to get some food.

Gu Qinghuan was still thinking about the person under the table, but she didn't want to lift the tablecloth in public. Not to mention how strange this action would be, it might not be a good thing to really expose the other person.

In the end, she did not stay at the dining table, but walked somewhere else, pretending not to notice that person.

After eating and drinking, Gu Qinghuan said hello to Chen Zelin and left.

She had to go to the office to do her homework. The last bus here was at nine o'clock in the evening. She had to finish her homework early and go home before the last bus.

The sun has not yet completely set, the clouds in the sky have been dyed orange-red by the setting sun, but the sky above has already been invaded by the night.

Tomorrow should also be a good day, Gu Qinghuan thought, and her steps became lighter. Her original worry about grandma also subsided.

I will do the chemistry homework first, which is relatively light, and then the biology homework... Gu Qinghuan was thinking about it when she suddenly noticed that someone seemed to be following her.

The footsteps coming from behind her were neither fast nor slow, and seemed to always keep the same distance from her. Especially at this moment, she noticed the footsteps and stopped, and the person behind her also stopped.

Gu Qinghuan frowned, thought for a moment, then turned around.

The other party obviously did not expect her to turn around so abruptly. He stayed where he was for a moment and had no time to escape.

The person who appeared in front of Gu Qinghuan was a boy who looked about the same age as her. He had a slim build, but did not look strong.

The color of her skin was between bronze and wheat, her eyes were dark and bright, but her look was a little gloomy.

There was a piece of gauze taped to the end of the left eyebrow with medical tape, and it seemed that there was an injury, but there was no blood.

The point is, this boy was not wearing Mingde’s school uniform, but a white top and black pants… a uniform that looked familiar?

"Canteen work clothes?" Gu Qinghuan asked uncertainly.

The other person came back to his senses from his surprise because of her words, and blurted out: "Why don't you run?"

"Why should I run?" Gu Qinghuan asked back.

"That's how it's played on TV. When they realize they're being followed, they run away. I was thinking of waiting until you ran to a place where there was no one around before calling you," said the boy.

Gu Qinghuan was a little speechless. She pointed in the direction of the school gate and said, "This is inside the school. Mingde's public areas are monitored. There are security guards at the gate, and everyone entering and leaving is registered."

"In this situation, you follow me for a while. The security guard watching the surveillance will soon call someone to check the situation." Gu Qinghuan said.

The boy scratched the back of his head, looking as if he had not expected this to happen.

Gu Qinghuan didn't waste any time and asked directly: "Who are you? Why are you following me? What do you want to stop me for?"

The boy didn't answer immediately. He looked around and finally managed to say, "Can we talk somewhere where there's no one? I don't want to be seen."

Gu Qinghuan said decisively: "First give me a reason to believe that you have no ill intentions."

The boy hesitated again, and seeing the suspicion on Gu Qinghuan's face becoming more and more obvious, he said anxiously: "My name is Wen Ye, yes, I'm Su Lin's..."

"Su Lin's what?" Gu Qinghuan asked.

There was a hint of red on Wen Ye's face. His skin was dark, so the redness was not obvious. However, Gu Qinghuan had been staring at him and noticed the change immediately.

"Neighbor, neighbor..." Wen Ye said stutteringly.

"Then why are you looking for me?" Gu Qinghuan pondered, the identity of "neighbor" was most likely just a cover-up.

Otherwise, why would Wen Ye be blushing?

"Just now in the cafeteria, I was the one who caught your bowl." Seeing that Gu Qinghuan did not ask any further questions about Su Lin, Wen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and spoke much more fluently about other things.

It's this person! Gu Qinghuan looked at Wen Ye's hand. She didn't look closely at the hand that was holding the bowl at that time, but now that he said that, it really looked like him.

Wen Ye continued, "I heard what you said to the teacher. You and your classmates donated money to Su Lin. I wanted to thank you."

Gu Qinghuan raised an eyebrow: "Why are you thanking me? I'm not donating money to you. Besides, we and Su Lin are in a mutually supportive relationship, each taking what we need. There's no need to thank me."

In what capacity did this person express his gratitude? And on what basis did he do so? Gu Qinghuan did not like his attitude very much.

Wen Ye should be interested in Su Lin, but he said he was just a "neighbor" and probably never confessed his feelings.

When the relationship between him and Su Lin was still unclear, he rashly said something like this, as if he could make the decision for Su Lin.

When she said this, Wen Ye was also stunned: "I just want to thank you..."

"But you don't need to say 'gratitude'. This is your own emotion. It doesn't matter whether I know it or not. We help Su Lin not to make her and you grateful to us." Gu Qinghuan said.

In fact, if Su Lin's mother came to thank them, Gu Qinghuan's attitude would not be so blunt and resistant.

The main reason was that Wen Ye’s behavior left a bad first impression on Gu Qinghuan.

Imagine if she received help from others and planned to repay the favor, and suddenly found out that her neighbor went to thank the benefactor...

This is so weird, isn't it? It's totally arbitrary!
