A Game in the Classroom in the Middle of a Storm

01.
Going to an Empty School to Finish the Assignment

In order to complete the group assignment handed out by their demonic Teacher Li, Zan You’er — in her capacity as the group leader — had to ask her four other group members to come to school to discuss their work.

Why hadn’t she picked a cafe or another location? Because two of her group members were particularly noisy and also happened to be the two most talkative people in their class.

Ever since the last time they had gone to KFC and wound up having the big sister at their neighboring table stare at them in bafflement, You’er did not dare to meet up with her group members in any places of recreation, regardless of whether it was a KTV or a dinner party.
One had to know that her face was particularly thin,1 not to mention the fact that it was bad conduct to disturb others.

After pondering over the matter, it seemed as though the classroom during the weekend was the most suitable for completing the task.
After informing the four other members one day in advance, You’er headed out early the next day so that she could prepare the materials.

Their group assignment this time was to observe an ant nest.
She had already ordered an ant ecology box through the internet, but all four of the others had never joined her to work on the project on the basis of not having time, so the initial observations were all completed by herself.

Nevertheless, it was impossible for her to write down their entire group’s observation result by herself.
After placing the ant ecology box on top of the podium, she gave water and food to the ants before sitting down at her desk and waiting for the rest of the group members to arrive.

After feeling that some time had passed, Zan You’er wanted to take out her phone and check the time, however, she was unable to find it.

“Where did my phone go aaahhh! It can’t be that I lost it…”

She placed her school bag on her lap and opened it before rummaging through the contents, throwing everything in disorder.

You’er clutched her head as she muttered resentfully before smacking her head against the table a few times in frustration.
In the end, she decided to retrace her steps and check whether she had dropped it somewhere on her way to the class.

The classroom was on the third floor.
As soon as she reached the second floor, she caught sight of Song Luan and Ke Hongming arguing about something at the corner of the stairs.
Both of their expressions were extremely fierce, and it seemed as though they could come to blows in the next second.

Zan You’er sighed helplessly.
Although these two people were in the same group, the both of them were at odds with each other and had frequent conflicts for all sorts of reasons, leaving her responsible for mediating the relationship between the two.
She was so tired that she wanted to give up.

“Did you two make me wait so long in the classroom by myself so that you could quarrel intimately over here?”

She leaned against the wall and amplified her voice to speak to the two men who had already clenched their fists.
Hearing her voice, Song Luan was the first to turn towards her:

“You’er, why did you come down?”

His expression became warm and gentle in an instant, as though the guy who had been scowling with his body full of hostility just now was merely an illusion.

After witnessing his rapid face changing act, Zan You’er did not react at all.
She squatted down on the steps and held her small face in both hands as she frowned gently:

“I came to look for my phone, I think I might have dropped it on my way…”

“Your panties are showing, idiot.”

Ke Hongming folded his arms in front of his chest and leaned against the wall as he glanced lightly at Zan You’er and spoke disdainfully;

“How come you run over every time I’m about to beat this guy? Did you put a camera on me?”

“I’d rather put a camera at the back door of the school and watch people smoke all day, I don’t want to look at you.
Putting on such a stinky face e
