“Hurry up, and let’s go! It’s time for our lesson. We'd be punished if the Dean catches us here!”
As the bell rang again, the loitering students reluctantly left Class A.
Lynette Batton stared at Leon Batton with a strange look in her eyes. She wanted to lean forward to find out what happened, but she couldn't risk disrupting the lesson when the bell had already rung.
So, she sent Leon a text message.
“Why do you keep staring at the toast and smiling down at it, Leon?”
Feeling his phone vibrate from an incoming notification, he glimpsed at the screen and read her message. He merely cocked an eyebrow after turning around to look at her wordlessly.
Lynette began spamming him with even more text messages when she realized that he wasn't going to reply.
“Leon, hurry up and tell me, please?”
“Did that girl from before give you the toast?”
“I might be able to help you if you can share what happened. ”
His phone kept vibrating, and he couldn’t ignore it. He had no choice but to open and read each message as it came.
He was at a loss for words upon realizing that his sister had sent him over twenty text messages. He had to type a brief reply as he worried that she would start causing trouble if he continued to ignore her questions.
“Yes. It was the girl from before.”
After sending his reply, his eyes slid back to the slice of toast in front of him, his lips curving into a smile without him realizing it.
The girl hadn’t given up as it would seem. There was still a possibility of a blossoming relationship between them.
Students from Class A arrived at the basketball court, where Class C students were to have their physical education lesson.
The two classes occupied half of the sports stadium, one on each side. Everyone began carrying out simple warm-up exercises under the guidance of their coaches.
Leon followed along. He had a unique presence that made him the most attractive person in the crowd.
“Isn’t he so handsome? I think I’m going to die. I wish he’d just make his debut already!”
“Oh my god! We’re so lucky to be having physical education at the same time as Leon! That’s Leon, the most handsome guy in our school!”
“Yeah. Fortunately, our language teacher swapped lessons with our physical education coach. Otherwise, we’d never get an opportunity like this!”
The female students from Class C were naturally attracted to Leon, while the remaining male students could only glower in jealousy.
