Unveil Her Secret Identities-Chapter 19 - 0 If you’re not in class one... _1

"You can’t eat spicy food?"

No matter how well Xu Boyan tried to disguise it, Lu Qingyi could tell in an instant that something was off.

She was good at watching and observing.

"No, it tastes really good."

Although his cover was blown, Xu Boyan maintained his composure while speaking.

For the first time, he found it embarrassing to be unable to handle spicy food.

Lu Qingyi looked at Xu Boyan and frowned slightly.

"Eat this."

Lu Qingyi got a bowl of clear soup, rinsed the meat skewers in it, and handed it to Xu Boyan.

Xu Boyan cracked a smile, "Thanks, kid."

The kid seems to be observant.

Without saying a word, Lu Qingyi continued eating and preparing skewers for Xu Boyan. The time at the hotpot restaurant swiftly came to an end.

Xu Boyan was in a good mood.

"You could have told me you can’t handle spicy food. There’s no need to tough it out for me. I could have ordered a half spicy, half mild soup base."

Only once they were in the car, Lu Qingyi decided to speak up.

She was secretly touched. Other than her grandmother, no one would accommodate her for simply being Lu Qingyi.

Xu Boyan chuckled lightly, "Okay, I’ll remember to tell you next time."

The kid is pretty caring.

"Kid, tell me what you like, and I’ll get it for you."

Driving past a shopping mall, Xu Boyan stopped the car and turned his head to look at the girl.

Lu Qingyi shook her head, "No need, let’s just go back to school."

She could afford to buy the things she liked. She had the means to buy what she desired.

"Okay."

Xu Boyan did not insist, although he really wanted to buy something for the kid.

"Fourth bro, fourth bro, you guys are finally back."

Lin Yuanhang was whining all the time and looked like he was about to burst into tears the moment he saw Xu Boyan and Lu Qingyi.

There was only one car, and when Xu Boyan drove off, he was left stranded.

Getting back to school from the roadside was quite a trek.

As a wealthy lad from Kyoto, he had never hailed a taxi and didn’t even know how to go about it.

Lu Qingyi stared at Lin Yuanhang for a few seconds, "You’re not fat."

Damn right, he knew that he wasn’t overweight and never considered losing weight!

Lin Yuanhang was yelling in his mind, but held his tongue when he saw Xu Boyan’s calm face and simply swallowed his complaints.

"Haha, Qingyi is right, but... I still want to be a bit skinnier."

Lin Yuanhang laughed awkwardly and backed down under Xu Boyan’s gaze.

"Is the kid ready to leave now?"

Xu Boyan took out a bag of White Rabbit Creamy Candy from the drawer and handed it to Lu Qingyi.

"Thank you." With no hint of modesty, Lu Qingyi accepted his offer. "I’ll be heading back to the dorm first."

——

The atmosphere in dorm 202 was lively, filled with music and laughter.

Lu Qingyi frowned, hesitating to open the door.

It was far too noisy.

"Lu Qingyi, you’re back?"

Lin Yiran suddenly opened the door from the inside and locked eyes with Lu Qingyi.

Lu Qingyi nodded, "Yeah."

She paced to her own bed.

A fluffy carpet was spread out on the floor, where Qi Zhen and Luo Jia sat with a small table covered in snacks between them, their phones playing music.

"Want to join us?"

Seeing Lu Qingyi, Luo Jia habitually offered an invitation.

Ever since they moved in, Lu Qingyi had kept to herself, always coming back to the dorm to rest at set times in the afternoon and evening.

She always sat alone with a book without saying a word; there was virtually no interaction between her and the rest of them.

Lu Qingyi gave them a flat, noncommittal glance before putting on her headphones, "No need."

"The Lu family’s genes are predictable."

Qi Zhen crossed her arms, a sarcastic look in her eyes as she stared at Lu Qingyi.

She didn’t like Lu Qingyi very much.

Upon hearing that, Lu Qingyi looked up at Qi Zhen.

Indeed.

The Lu family had pretty good genes. Lu Yao and Yao Meishu were both university graduates and their kids were no slackers either.

Even those who didn’t study still had good genes.

Genetics is a formidable thing.

"To be honest, I don’t like you."

Qi Zhen was brutal in her honesty, a smirk cornering her lips.

With a slight curving of her lips, Lu Qingyi didn’t seem overly perturbed.

She had plenty of detractors. One more or one less Qi Zhen didn’t matter.

She admired Qi Zhen’s plain-spokenness. At least she had the guts to speak her mind.

Unlike Lu Jiayue who was all saintly and pretentious.

"Zhen Zhen..."

Lin Yiran frowned and pulled at Qi Zhen’s sleeve.

She didn’t really like a person who didn’t fit in either. But she didn’t detest Lu Qingyi.

They were dorm mates after all. Certain words could ruin the harmony in the dorm.

"You’re allowed to dislike me, but I hope you won’t disturb me. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m not lonely and I don’t need any friends."

Lu Qingyi took off her headphones, her lips pursed as she spoke.

Others’ feelings about her were their business and had nothing to do with her.

As long as they didn’t bother her, they could feel however they liked.

"Lu Qingyi, you’re really strong in biology, chemistry, and physics. Could you share some study tips?"

After a few seconds of silence, Luo Jia couldn’t keep it in any longer and asked.

The first time she saw Lu Qingyi’s grades, she wanted to ask her about her study methods. But she never found the right opportunity.

"You should ask Lu Jiayue."

She had a good memory. Even though she rarely interacted with others in the dorm, she could still remember their names and classes.

She knew that Luo Jia was in class one.

Anyone related to Lu Jiayue didn’t interest her much.

Luo Jia pursed her lips, "She said she doesn’t have any study tips."

Although she was in class one, her grades were the worst there.

She’d thought about studying harder, but how simple could science subjects be? Each day she spent grinding through problems, but her grades hardly improved.

Lu Jiayue had good grades and was easy to talk to. Luo Jia had asked her before, but Lu Jiayue said she had no particular study methods — she claimed she just understood everything after the lesson.

"If she doesn’t have any, why do you think I could have any?"

Lu Qingyi chuckled softly.

No study tips?

Ha, she clearly just doesn’t want to teach.

Even geniuses need a good study method.

Luo Jia bit her lip and kept silent.

It was Lu Jiayue who suggested it.

She’d said that Lu Qingyi must have a good studying method to turn her grades around in such a short time.

Lu Jiayue had shown her Lu Qingyi’s old report cards.

From the time she entered school, her grades were always in the single digits. Then, they were all zeros—incredibly striking.

She could hardly get anything right even from guessing.

"Jiajia, what study methods could she have? She’s always engrossed in romance novels. Even if Lu Jiayue had studying methods, she wouldn’t share."

Qi Zhen saw things pretty clear. She knew that Lu Jiayue wasn’t a generous person.

Lin Yiran glanced at Lu Qingyi, "Lu Qingyi, didn’t our teacher always tell us to help each other?"

Good things could be shared after all.

"If you weren’t in class one, I believe I’d be more than happy to share my study methods with you."

Leaning against the iron post of her bed, Lu Qingyi slightly hooked the corner of her mouth, jokingly saying.
