Chapter 494: 392 New student enrollment_2
The boy was just staring at Xia Nuo's figure, looking reluctant to part.
Fang You was unexpectedly satisfied with Luo Xianyu's performance.
Great job, Yu.
You're the best Yu in the world!
Guo Zhijie, that's the name.
Overall talent evaluation only an A.
Trash.
Core profession is a basketball player, level 5.
Weak.
Now that Zhendan Academy has expanded its recruitment, its overall strength isn't what it used to be; any Tom, Dick, or Harry can get admitted as a student.
They're even admitting guys who don't even score an S in overall talent evaluation.
Obviously, there's a problem here...
Just then, Fang You.
"What are you looking at here, looking all pensive?"
"Let me see—"
"That direction over there, that's D class where Nuo Nuo is, right?"
"Ah, it's you!
"What do you mean it's me! Is this how cold it is when old classmates meet..."
Xu Lingyi and Fang You were outstanding students who graduated together from the winter camp in high school, and they were also in the same class in junior high. Xu Lingyi and Xia Nuo were very close, but Xu Lingyi also had a good relationship with Fang You.
Her Talent "Genius Hacker" was a capability Fang You was looking forward to, and after completing the commission of introducing Uncle Song Hang to Xu Lingyi through "Boundless Learning," Fang You had also unlocked this talent ability, mastering the coding skills of a genius, with his coder profession jumping directly to level 8.
The commissions from "Boundless Learning" were relatively simple, but they demanded a lot from Fang You's social relationships, involving things he was reluctant to do but couldn't manipulate from behind the scenes because oftentimes he was directly asked to handle them himself.
At that moment, Xu Lingyi couldn't help but nudge Fang You's arm, "If I remember correctly, this is the first time you and Nuo Nuo aren't in the same class, right? Are you feeling lonely and worried?"
"...I'd rather not say."
Fang You said, "It feels somewhat like an old father..."
Question Xia Anyang, understand Xia Anyang, become Xia Anyang.
"I know, after all, Nuo Nuo does tend to get into mischief..."
Fang You suddenly shifted the topic back to himself: "Those foolish things Nuo Nuo did, you helped quite a bit, right? She couldn't handle all that software programming on her own."
"Heh heh... after all, they're all quite interesting and quirky stuff, it feels quite fulfilling to do them..."
Seeing Fang You growing increasingly dissatisfied with his own actions, a nervous Xu Lingyi quickly changed the subject and said, "What's the matter? If you like Nuo Nuo, just go chase after her! Whether it's as an old father or a boyfriend, it doesn't really matter!"
"..."
"Do you think Nuo Nuo and I look like a couple now?"
Fang You asked.
"Yo... you, my boy... finally catching on, are you?"
Xu Lingyi was curious about Fang You's reaction, "Asking this out of the blue, are you starting to have feelings for Nuo Nuo?"
"There are too many people interested in Nuo Nuo."
Fang You said.
"Hmm... so you feel a bit uneasy now that you and Nuo Nuo aren't in the same class, and you want to dispel everyone's thoughts, so you feel like you need to do something..."
Xu Lingyi's eyes rolled, "Like—becoming her boyfriend?"
"There's no need to make it official."
Fang You said, "If we can make others feel like we are a couple, that would solve the problem."
...
He continued along this line of thinking.
[You clearly want to confess to Xia Nuo but are too scared to tell others directly. This is truly youth! Youth Energy +100, Youth Energy +100...]
"You seem suddenly very angry, what's the matter?"
Xu Lingyi curiously observed Fang You's reaction, and Fang You just waved his hand dismissively.
"Mosquitoes."
"Alright, alright... so do you need me to give you some advice?"
"Just want to hear your thoughts."
Xu Lingyi said, "You guys are actually already doing couple things now, holding hands, eating together, inseparable. But after everyone learns you've been childhood friends, they might not find your relationship that odd."
"So?"
"Since you can't officially announce it yet, you might try doing some ambiguous couple-like interactions. If someone sees that, they might realize you two are at least not just platonic friends, there's some ambiguity there."
"..."
"No way, with that silent, thoughtful look on your face, don't tell me you have no idea what couples do for small interactions?"
"Kiss?" Fang You asked.
"Pfft... Hahaha!"
"It seems that even Emperor Youyou doesn't know everything."
"Let me demonstrate one for you then."
Xu Lingyi said and then pushed Fang You, pinning him against the wall.
He then tiptoed, one hand on the wall, and slowly moved closer to Fang You.
[You are being pinned against a wall by a girl, ah, such is youth! Youth Energy +120, Youth Energy +120...]
"Do you feel it, the ambiguous atmosphere this wall-pin game creates?"
"And here you can prop up the chin like this..."
Xu Lingyi said and propped up Fang You's chin, but Fang You instinctively dodged it.
"Okay, I got it."
Fang You said, "Basically, it's about playing little interactions that only couples do, creating an ambiguous atmosphere for the people around us, right?"
"That's pretty much it."
Xu Lingyi nodded, showing a teachable expression.
"Right, when you do this wall-pin to Nuo Nuo, I'm coming to watch."
"...Don't."
"What do you mean, don't! You're being stingy not showing off the skills your master taught you right in front of him!"
"I'm heading to the classroom."
Fang You left Xu Lingyi and then headed to the classroom of class S.
Wall-pin Nuo Nuo, huh...
Actually, I used to do this kind of thing a lot when I was young.
That was probably around when I was 1 or 2 years old.
I was pinned against the wall, the bed, the tatami—just all sorts of pinning by Nuo Nuo.
Back then, Fang You wasn't very strong, so he couldn't resist well when Nuo Nuo pinned him.
Children then didn't have a sense of youth, not even the reborn Emperor Youyou.
Fang You arrived at class S's classroom.
Because he had been sneaking peeks at Xia Nuo in class and learning interaction techniques from Xu Lingyi, by the time Fang You arrived, there weren't many seats left.
However, when everyone saw Fang You appear, they respectfully turned their eyes toward him.
"Is that really Fang You in person?"
"He's devastatingly handsome."
"Even as a guy, I find him handsome."
Even at an elite school brimming with talent like Zhendan Academy, the near-perfect presence of Fang You elicited awe.

However, one girl took the initiative to walk up to him.
She stood in front of Fang You.
She wore a pink dress, noticeably adorned with cherry blossom pendants.
"Long time no see, Fang You."
"You are... Reina?"
