Chapter 31: The Acting Student Council President
Unlike the other student council members, the words “Acting Student Council President” were also printed on young master Gu’s red armband.
It was bright and eye-catching.
And extremely intimidating.
Although he still had to go through a campaign and evaluation before officially becoming student council president, the votes of recommendation from the former president and the dean carried a lot of weight. Gu Qinian directly obtained the position of acting student council president.
This was basically an internship assessment.
If, after one semester, his work earned the approval of both teachers and students, Gu Qinian would officially become the new president.
Cheng Shu had never imagined, even in death, that what had originally been just a way to give the newcomer a hard time—and conveniently earn himself some credit—would end up making clothes for someone else’s wedding. Not only had it failed, it had directly lifted Gu Qinian over his head!
Cheng Shu could neither understand it nor accept it, and he tried to gather his own people to oppose Gu Qinian.
“But sadly, that trash vice president doesn’t have any people of his own, hahaha!”
Zhu Xu was sharing student council gossip in the dorm, and when he got to that part, he laughed especially loudly.
Over the years, Cheng Shu had gotten used to throwing his weight around. Most of the student council members had been screwed over by him at some point, and they had long been waiting for someone to put him in his place. Now that the wall had fallen, everyone shoved it over. Even those few core members who had usually endured things and followed Cheng Shu silently shifted to Gu Qinian’s side.
No matter how good Cheng Shu usually was at pretending, at this point all he could do was rage incompetently. “In terms of seniority, how is Gu Qinian suitable to be president?!”
“But aside from seniority, student Gu Qinian is suitable for the position in every possible way.”
The student council members began listing all the acting president’s strengths.
“Capable, not talkative, hardworking, and incredibly efficient.”
“He’s only in first year, so he can serve the student council for a full six years.”
“And apparently his family background is extraordinary. With the new president here, the student council will never have to worry about sponsorship again!”
Good grief. They were already calling him the new president.
One student council member even blushed and added awkwardly, “Actually… I’m a fan of the new president’s face. I just can’t resist it.”
“…”
Cheng Shu had nearly died of rage on the spot.
Zhu Xu vividly described the gossip he had heard, as though he had witnessed it himself. “What good does it do if Cheng Shu gets mad? During this time, Gu Qinian has been quietly gathering power while calmly suppressing him. I’m guessing he’s already got most of the actual authority in hand.”
Gu Tang listened with complete focus, his round eyes sparkling, and could not help clapping. “Wow, Niannian is amazing!”
Recently, young master Gu had been busy, leaving early and returning late. By the time he got back to the dorm, Gu Tang was already asleep, and young master Gu never woke him. They still went to class together in the morning, but the time was too rushed for much conversation.
Although Gu Tang was also a student council member, the publicity department was not usually very busy, and as a newcomer, he had even less to do. Most of the time, he did not need to go at all.
This was the first time he had heard about young master Gu’s glorious deeds.
Gu Tang was even prouder than if people had been praising him directly.
This was probably the joy of raising someone!
[Host, the male lead is one step closer to rising, and we’re one step closer to retiring in glory! Keep it up! Keep working hard!]
The system sounded encouraging.
Gu Tang also clenched a little fist. “Keep going!”
While Zhu Xu was still talking animatedly, Xie Qian suddenly noticed something important. “Wait. Didn’t Gu Qinian used to be uninterested in everything? Why is he suddenly so motivated?”
Gu Tang could not figure that out either.
Young master Gu rarely got enthusiastic about anything. Most of the time he looked listless and uninterested.
Now he had suddenly become so obsessed with the student council…
Gu Tang interpreted that as—
the awakening of the male lead!
Of course, he could not tell his roommates that. If he started talking about the male lead and cannon fodder, Xie Qian and the others would only think he had some middle-school syndrome.
As the three were talking, Gu Qinian happened to push open the dorm door and come in.
The room instantly fell silent.
Zhu Xu and Xie Qian stared at him, full of curiosity.
The moment Gu Tang saw young master Gu, his round eyes curved into little crescents. Pretending to hold a microphone, he said, “Interviewing student Niannian: what suddenly made you interested in running for student council president?”
Gu Qinian lifted his eyes and glanced at him.
That look was full of complicated emotion, as though he wanted to speak but stopped himself.
Gu Tang: “?”
Couldn’t he say?
What kind of reason was mysterious enough to hide?
Before Gu Tang could ask further, young master Gu had already turned and gone into the bathroom to wash up.
After a full day of classes and more than half the evening spent working for the student council, only Gu Qinian himself knew why he had been so busy he felt like a dog.
The greatest benefit of becoming student council president was—
that he could wipe out all the rotten peach blossoms around Gu Tang in a perfectly justified manner!
During just this stretch of work, who knew how many pink love letters he had quietly intercepted? Gu Tang’s admirers had even spread to the high school division. That little milk dumpling laughed and fooled around all day, completely unaware of how popular he was.
Scrubbing himself hard in the shower, young master Gu thought viciously, Tomorrow I’m creating a new rule: any high school student who affects the studies of middle school students gets a disciplinary mark immediately!
Gu Qinian: When it comes to cracking down on puppy love, I’m a professional.
In the blink of an eye, the placement test was almost here.
The teachers had put an enormous amount of effort into setting the exam. Without exceeding the syllabus, they made the difficulty as high as possible so they could assess the students’ academic level.
Put nicely, it was to see the students’ true ability.
Put bluntly, it was: Brats, tremble!
The study atmosphere on campus became intense almost overnight.
At lunch in the cafeteria, Gu Tang even saw Little Glasses still reciting his textbook lesson while swaying his head.
Little Glasses was so focused that after finishing his recitation, he forgot to eat.
So competitive…
Gu Tang had not had the chance to be that competitive in his previous life, so this was his first time seeing someone like this. In his heart, he silently gave Little Glasses a thumbs-up.
Jiang City No. 1 High School required the high school division to attend evening self-study uniformly, while the middle school division could choose freely.
After classes ended in the afternoon, the experimental class students had already spontaneously entered self-study mode.
Except for young master Gu.
The arts class did not have evening self-study either, so once class ended, Gu Tang came to the experimental class to find him and walk back to the dorm together.
Standing by the hallway window, he spotted young master Gu from afar, sitting in the last row…
asleep.
The boy’s long legs were awkwardly crammed under the desk. A book of who-knows-what covered his face, and his head leaned against the back wall, exposing a pale, beautifully lined neck.
Even without seeing his face, Gu Tang recognized him instantly.
He lightly tapped on the window glass with a finger. When the girl sitting by the window looked up, he politely said, “Hello, classmate. I’m looking for Gu Qinian. Could you help call him for me?”
The girl had been scratching her head over a math problem and was already annoyed when she heard the tapping sound. She had lifted her face ready to snap at whoever it was.
But the moment she saw his face, she swallowed the words that had almost reached her mouth with a little gulp.
So, so cute!
The boy in front of her had lively features, bright round deer-like eyes, and a babyish face that had not yet lost all its childishness. He looked incredibly approachable.
When he smiled, he was like a little sun.
That warm, gentle smile instantly washed away all the irritation she had felt from doing problems.
However, once she heard who he was looking for, the girl shook her head apologetically and said she did not dare call him, and that Gu Tang should go in himself.
Gu Tang: “?”
Seriously, what had young master Gu been doing in class?
Why did his classmates seem a little scared of him?
Walking into someone else’s classroom always felt a bit awkward.
The moment Gu Tang stepped into the experimental class, he noticed several classmates looking at him. He smiled at them politely, then, enduring the awkwardness, quickly walked over to young master Gu and lifted the book off his face—
At the exact same time, a collective gasp sounded through the class.
Gu Tang: “???”
Anyone who did not know better would think he had just broken some great demon king’s seal.
With the book that had been blocking the light gone, Gu Qinian frowned slightly and slowly opened his eyes.
Rustle—
All the classmates who had been looking their way immediately turned back around and pretended they had seen nothing.
When Gu Qinian opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was the boy’s bright, lively amber eyes, clear and sparkling, fixed unblinkingly on him.
The boy’s voice was very soft when he spoke, making him sound especially gentle. “Niannian, why are you still sleeping?”
Gu Qinian felt as though a feather had lightly brushed his heart, making it itch.
But in the very next second, he suddenly felt his chair tilt. If his legs had not been long enough to brace himself, he would have gone straight down.
Seeing that young master Gu did not speak, Gu Tang assumed he had not fully woken up yet, so he kicked one of the chair legs and said again in the same soft voice, “Wake up, we’re going back.”
Gu Qinian: “…”
At home, it had always been like this too.
Although it was rare, if Gu Tang woke up first, he would use his foot to wake him. Sometimes it was a kick, sometimes it was a gentle little step on him.
It had always been like that since childhood, and neither of them had ever thought there was anything strange about it.
The experimental class students could not see the little movements between them. All they saw was that their class’s cold and powerful Gu Qinian quietly answered with a low “Mm,” said nothing more, stood up, picked up his schoolbag, took the boy’s bag too, and followed him out.
The moment they left, whispering discussion immediately broke out in the class.
“That was Gu Tang from the arts class, right? He’s so cute! Gu Qinian really listens to him, even helping him carry his bag!”
“I heard they’re brothers, and Gu Tang is the older one.”
“What?! There’s no way they’re biological brothers, right? They don’t look alike at all, and they’re in the same grade, so their ages should be almost the same…”
In a relatively closed school environment, even the smallest bit of gossip could spread like wildfire.
Gu Qinian was the extremely popular acting student council president, so the people around him naturally became objects of curiosity as well. On top of that, Gu Tang himself was striking enough, and the two of them walking together was basically: attention magnet x2.
It was just that most of those comments were made behind their backs, so Gu Tang rarely had the chance to hear them.
Sometimes Zhu Xu would bring back a sentence or two, and every time, Gu Tang would seriously emphasize, “That’s right, I’m the older brother.”
Even if their birthdays had been arranged to be the same.
He was still half a year older than young master Gu!
When they first came out, it had been Gu Qinian following Gu Tang. But as they walked, it turned into Gu Tang following behind young master Gu, using him as shade from the sun.
He traced the tall figure in front of him with his eyes, completely lacking any awareness that letting the other person carry his bag and using him as a human sunshade might be a little shameless. He quite naturally stepped on the shadow young master Gu cast on the ground as he walked.
“I grew one centimeter recently!” Gu Tang suddenly announced.
He was simply sharing whatever came to mind.
At that, Gu Qinian turned around.
Gu Tang was too focused on stepping on the shadow to notice, and he bumped straight into his chest.
“Mmph… Why did you suddenly stop?”
Gu Tang mumbled, then heard young master Gu’s voice from above his head.
Gu Qinian reached out and ruffled his fluffy hair. “Mm, you did get a little taller.”
Gu Tang covered his head. “You can’t touch the top of my head! It’ll stop me from growing!”
Gu Qinian laughed. “Oh.”
[Outrageous, Host! The male lead is actually using himself as a measuring stick to measure your height! What kind of innovative insult is this? Can you really stand for this?]
Hearing the system, Gu Tang asked, “Why have you been so hostile toward Niannian lately?”
It kept subtly trying to stir trouble between them.
[No!]
[I’m definitely not mad because I’m not the host’s favorite anymore! Hmph!]
Gu Tang: “…”
He had not expected even the system to get sulky.
Before he could comfort it, he heard young master Gu say with a faintly resentful tone, “When I get back to the dorm lately, you’re always already asleep.”
Gu Tang looked confused. “Yes…?”
Gu Qinian lowered his eyes. “Don’t you think you talk more with Xie Qian and Zhu Xu than you do with me?”
Gu Tang: “…”
No, seriously, what was wrong with everyone lately?
Were they all suddenly fighting for affection???
Still, this one he knew how to handle.
He lifted a hand and patted the other boy’s solid shoulder. “Relax. I definitely talk to you the most.”
The dark pupils of young master Gu brightened a little.
Gu Tang said it with perfect logic: “Because those two talk too much, so I usually just listen.”
Of course he talked more when he was with quiet, taciturn young master Gu. Wasn’t that obvious?
But as soon as he finished saying it, the little spark of light in young master Gu’s eyes dimmed again, turning back into two deep black pools, making him look listless again.
What now?
Surely he was not this emotionally fragile?!
He must have been drained empty by student council work!
Feeling quite sympathetic, Gu Tang thought that no matter how capable young master Gu was, he was still only a teenage boy. It really was not easy to handle both schoolwork and student council duties at the same time.
So it was normal for him to occasionally act spoiled with his older brother.
And so, standing that close, Gu Tang rose onto his tiptoes, spread his arms, and hugged young master Gu, patting his back lightly. “There, there. Big brother loves you.”
He did not forget to take advantage of the moment while comforting him.
“…”
When Gu Qinian lowered his head, all he could see was the boy’s fluffy hair.
At first, he had only felt a little upset because he had been separated from Gu Tang for too long. But now, the cool sweet scent from the other boy’s body made his emotions become much more complicated.
As for why, even Gu Qinian himself did not understand.
He simply had an instinctive desire to be a little closer to Gu Tang. Yet now that the other boy was really hugging him, he became inexplicably nervous.
He raised his hands and hesitated, unsure whether he should hug him back…
“Little Glasses?!”
Gu Tang suddenly shouted, and Gu Qinian froze.
Gu Tang had just been about to comfort young master Gu some more when, over the other boy’s shoulder, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the distance—
Little Glasses was carrying a huge pile of books, and halfway along, he suddenly thud—collapsed to the ground.
“What happened?!”
Gu Tang rushed over immediately and helped Little Glasses up.
Gu Qinian followed and helped pick up the books scattered on the ground, but his eyes lingered on the arm Gu Tang had wrapped around Little Glasses.
Gu Tang seemed to treat everyone well and show concern for everyone.
Then what made him different, compared to the other classmates, in Gu Tang’s eyes?
Was it only because he was the “younger brother”?
For a moment, Gu Qinian lost himself in thought.
Gu Tang’s attention was on Little Glasses, so he did not notice the fleeting expression on young master Gu’s face.
Duan Zhengyu’s glasses had fallen off. His little face was pale, and there was a thin layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
It had to be low blood sugar!
Gu Tang had spent a long time in hospitals in his previous life and had learned quite a bit of emergency first aid knowledge there. He hurriedly pulled out the candy he always kept in his pocket and fed it to Duan Zhengyu.
Before long, Little Glasses slowly recovered.
When he saw Gu Tang and Gu Qinian, he even looked confused for a moment and muttered, “Why did I fall asleep here?”
“You fainted!”
Gu Tang looked at him worriedly. Severe low blood sugar could be life-threatening. “We should take you back to the dorm to rest.”
Duan Zhengyu shook his head. “No, I still have to study today. I absolutely can’t come in last again.”
Gu Tang did not feel comfortable leaving him like that, so he reminded him not to go study alone in the empty piano rooms again, or else if he fainted, no one would even notice.
Little Glasses answered softly, slowly stood up, hugged his books, and walked away little by little.
Back in elementary school, Duan Zhengyu had actually been quite lively and often played with them. But after entering middle school, for some reason, he had suddenly grown distant—or rather, Little Glasses seemed to have made studying the only thing in his life.
It felt a little obsessive.
“What’s going on with him?”
Gu Tang asked young master Gu. But the moment he turned his head, he saw the other boy looking blank and far away, clearly lost in thought.
Well, that made sense.
Even though Duan Zhengyu was also in the experimental class, with young master Gu’s personality, it would be a miracle if he paid attention to other people.
Sure enough, Gu Qinian replied indifferently, “No idea.”
Seeing the disappointment on Gu Tang’s face, Gu Qinian thought for a moment and added, “Maybe he’s under too much pressure.”
“That makes sense!”
Gu Tang suddenly understood. “Didn’t he mention coming in last just now? Could it be that he ranked poorly in the entrance exam for the experimental class?”
At the time of the entrance exam, everyone had only known their own rankings, not other people’s. With dozens of students in one class, it was normal to have high and low positions.
If there was a first place, there had to be a last place too.
The people at both extremes felt the most pressure. Everyone in the middle was just the quiet majority.
If Little Glasses had really been last, then it was not surprising that he was in such a hurry to study and wanted to turn things around in the placement test.
But young master Gu had been first place, so following that logic, did that mean his pressure was huge too?
No wonder Niannian had been in such a bad mood lately…
Since everyone released pressure in different ways, Gu Tang interpreted Gu Qinian’s unpredictable moods these past few days as the result of excessive stress.
Even after they got back to the dorm, Gu Tang still looked at young master Gu with concern.
“Gu Tang, you still have the time to sit there staring at Gu Qinian?”
Zhu Xu waved both hands in front of his face. “I’m practically dying of anxiety. I’m scared of the exam, and I can’t focus on studying. How are all of you so calm?”
Gu Tang and Gu Qinian had no problem publicly performing their routine of you look at me and I look at you, Xie Qian sat on the upper bunk stubbornly practicing imaginary piano with one hand despite his injury, Song Chen no longer stayed in the dorm, and in the whole room, only Zhu Xu remained the hardworking student truly studying.
Feeling wronged, Zhu Xu shoved his books away with both hands. “Forget it, I’m done. This is so annoying. Whatever grade I get, I get!”
Nothing in this world was hard—
as long as you were willing to give up.
“I really think you should keep studying.”
Xie Qian’s irritating voice drifted down from the top bunk. “After all, your trumpet still can’t reach the artistic heights of my piano. You can only rely on studying to turn your life around.”
Zhu Xu wailed, “What’s the point of studying? No matter how well I do, I still won’t beat the experimental class!”
“That may not be true. Song Chen told me he ranked top ten in the entire grade on the entrance exam. He joined the arts class because he likes drums.”
Xie Qian raised an eyebrow and looked meaningfully at young master Gu. “If the arts class crushes the experimental class, I won’t say who exactly would lose face.”
Zhu Xu instantly regained some fighting spirit. “Then I think I can beat Gu Qinian too. He never studies.”
Young master Gu, who had just been made the imaginary enemy, said nothing at all and climbed into bed to sleep.
Only Gu Tang looked at Xie Qian, then at Zhu Xu, and shook his head.
Gu Tang: You know nothing of danger.
On the day of the exam, the weather was bright and beautiful.
After finishing his test and walking out, Gu Tang saw young master Gu leaning against a flowerbed outside the examination room. Clearly, he had handed in his paper early.
The autumn breeze brushed across his face. Young master Gu looked even better than the flowers. From afar, his proportions were incredible—broad shoulders, narrow waist, long legs. If not for the face mask he wore because of his neat freak tendencies, that face could have earned another hundred points.
Looking at young master Gu, standing there in utter peace and ease, as if time were gentle and still—
Xie Qian shook his head and sighed. “So this is what a bad student looks like.”
Gu Tang: “…”
No.
This was a future top student.
Right after the exam, it happened to be the weekend.
The students all went home for the holiday, and once the results came out the following week, the school would start preparing for the parent-teacher meeting.
Since kindergarten, Gu Tang and Gu Qinian had always been in the same class, so Madam Su had always handled both of them together, attending both meetings alone in one go.
But now Gu Tang and Gu Qinian were in two separate classes.
Madam Su could not split herself in two.
Gu Quan, who had shifted his focus more toward family life, volunteered immediately. “I’ll do it!”
The moment he said that, he got a look of disgust from his biological son.
Gu Quan: “…”
Who outside would dare give the head of the Gu family that kind of face?
But there was nothing to be done with his biological son.
That was okay. There was still another kid!
Gu Quan turned and looked at Gu Tang with pitiful eyes, saying nothing, but saying everything.
Gu Tang instantly understood and hurriedly said, “Then Papa Gu can go to mine.”
“No.”
Su Mei elegantly smoothed back her hair. “I think the atmosphere in the arts class suits me better.”
The mighty head of the Gu family once again wore a pitiful expression.
Su Mei: “…”
After exchanging a look with her stepson, kind-hearted Madam Su gave in first. “Fine, fine. You go.”
In the end, it was decided that Su Mei would go to the experimental class for young master Gu’s meeting, and Gu Quan would go to the arts class for Gu Tang’s. This arrangement was also reported to Shen Ningqing, who was away filming.
The mother, currently out there working hard, expressed that if she were not trying to win an Oscar, she would have wanted to attend the boys’ parent-teacher meetings too!
That night, just before bed—
Gu Qinian once again began feeling uncomfortable all over.
The dorm bed was small, and he and Gu Tang had not slept together in a long time. Most likely, Gu Tang would come looking for him tonight.
While thinking in his heart that the little milk dumpling was so clingy, young master Gu very carefully went to wash up, changed into clean, comfortable pajamas, then lay down on the bed and shifted slightly to the left.
Leaving the spot on his right empty.
Quietly waiting.
“Niannian!”
Your little darling suddenly appeared.
Gu Tang had just finished washing and drying his hair. He came in with a fluffy head of soft hair, with two little tufts sticking up on top that bounced as he moved.
He was hugging his own little pillow, and his eyes curved in a smile. “Do you want to sleep together?”
Gu Qinian did want to.
But because he had spent his whole life being used to saying the opposite of what he meant, he answered automatically, “No. Go back to your own room.”
Usually, when he said that, Gu Tang would get even more excited and jump onto his bed to bother him. The two of them would fool around until they were sleepy and then go to bed.
Young master Gu’s heartbeat sped up, and he found himself faintly looking forward to it.
Who would have thought Gu Tang would freeze for two seconds, then say “Oh,” and actually leave obediently…
Leave…
Gu Qinian: “?!!!”
Gu Tang’s thinking was very simple.
The child was grown now and should have his own space.
Thinking about how young master Gu’s moods had been swinging lately, Gu Tang felt that Gu Qinian was probably entering puberty. He really did need some private space of his own.
But the moment Gu Tang stepped out the door, the system notification rang—
[Congratulations, Host. You completed the achievement “Let the Male Lead’s Expectations Fall Through,” reward: 20 life points and 1 plot coin!]
Gu Tang: “???”
Young master Gu had never liked sleeping with him in the first place.
How could he possibly have been expecting it?
Gu Tang guessed the system was bugging out again, so he ignored it, yawned, and went upstairs to sleep.
The next day, Gu Tang woke up full of energy.
Young master Gu appeared slowly, carrying a pair of panda eyes.
Gu Tang was startled. “Niannian, what happened to you?”
“…”
Gu Qinian did not want to talk. He viciously bit into a piece of bread.
Gu Tang could only lower his head and continue taking little sips of milk. He wanted to grow taller faster.
When he saw Grandma Mei coming downstairs, Gu Tang obediently greeted her. “Good morning, Grandma!”
“Ah, good morning, my good little darling.”
Ever since the children had gone to live at school, Su Mei had felt very lonely.
Hearing her good little darling’s voice in the morning always put her in a good mood for the whole day. But then she turned and saw her grandson sitting there, gloomy and chewing bread with two dark circles under his eyes.
One child was sunshine and brilliance, the other had a thundercloud over his head.
Su Mei said worriedly, “Qinian, what have you been doing at night? At such a young age, how can you already have dark circles? If you get ugly, no one will want you. Don’t learn from your uncle and stay up late all the time. He still doesn’t have a partner even now.”
Gu Qinian: “…”
He really did not want to speak.
Gu Tang secretly glanced at young master Gu. He was not ugly at all.
“Why are you looking at me?”
Gu Qinian suddenly turned his head and caught the sneaky little look.
Gu Tang swallowed the milk in his mouth and grinned. “Niannian isn’t ugly. Even Niannian with dark circles is still handsome!”
There was still a white ring of milk on the boy’s lips, and he smiled brightly, carefree and sunny.
For no clear reason—
Gu Qinian’s gloomy mood, which had lasted for ages, suddenly improved.
The results of the placement test were posted on Monday.
As students entered the school gate, they would all stop for a moment in front of the red honor board, find their own names, and check where they ranked.
Xie Qian found his own name immediately—right in the middle, neither good nor bad.
He found Zhu Xu’s name not far behind his. Brothers in misfortune, not much difference between them.
Song Chen had good grades. This time he had climbed to eighth in the grade.
Gu Tang’s results surprised him. He had actually ranked ahead of Song Chen—fifth in the entire grade!
With results like that, why were all of you messing around in the arts class instead of going to the experimental class?!!
Xie Qian could not understand it. Xie Qian was deeply shaken.
But the experimental class had its own disappointing students too. Let him see where that famously never-studies Gu Qinian ranked…
Xie Qian started looking from the middle. Nothing.
He checked farther down. Still nothing.
Tired of looking, Xie Qian decided to give up and just admire the name of the great first-place master before heading back to class.
“Gu Qinian?!!!”
He shouted it out loud, drawing looks from the students around him.
Xie Qian quickly covered his mouth and stared at that glaringly obvious name in first place in total disbelief.
After a long while, he finally accepted reality and muttered sourly, “The student who was first place on the entrance exam was way too useless, to actually get overtaken by someone who never studies!”
“Has it occurred to you that the person who came first before was him too?”
A clear, bright voice said slowly beside him.
When Xie Qian turned his head, he saw Gu Tang wearing a radiant smile so dazzling it could ruin kingdoms.
***
Author’s Note:
Little Xie Qian: Let the previous first-place student come out and defeat the great demon king!
Tang Tang: Sorry about that. This time it was Niannian, last time it was also Niannian, actually it’s always Niannian~ (proud face)
