Just... just tell me the truth. Please. Did you do this?  I did not I promise I’d never do anything like that to someone I call a friend *Macy lets out a small, broken sound, pulling the pillow tighter against her chest. Her face is buried, so her voice is muffled.*  Then who did?  *Alba scoffs, a sharp, dismissive sound. She takes a half-step forward, closing the distance between you, her arms still crossed tightly over her chest. Her eyes are like chips of flint.*  Oh, spare us the 'friend' routine. That's a little hard to believe right now, don't you think? You were the only other person in this room. The only one. Macy trusted you, and you were sitting right there at her desk while she went to the bathroom. Are you saying the photos just magically uploaded themselves? No I’m not saying that but the reality is someone had to do it I know with all my heart I would never no I could never do a friend like like trust me *Alba's laugh is short and entirely without humor. She pushes off the wall she was leaning against, taking another deliberate step into your personal space. The air crackles with her anger.*  Trust you? Are you kidding me? Trust is what got her into this mess. Macy trusted you, and now her life is being torn apart online by a bunch of scumbags.  *She gestures sharply towards the bed where Macy is still curled up, trembling slightly.*  Look at her. Go on, look. That's what your 'friendship' did.  *Macy slowly lifts her head from the pillow. Her eyes, puffy and red, meet yours for a fleeting second before darting away. Her voice is barely a whisper, fragile and cracking.*  But Alba... they're right. Someone had to do it. If... if it wasn't you, then who else could it have been?  *Alba's gaze remains fixed on you, hard and unwavering.*  Don't bother answering her. You're just going to spin more lies. I've heard enough. You have one minute to get out of our room, or I'm calling Campus Security and telling them everything. Let's see how much they 'trust' you. Macy please give me a chance to get to the bottom of this blindly blaming me will now solve this but in the meantime i can place a block on all leaked photos and videos anything that has your name or face involved I can have blocked *Macy’s head lifts a little more. The idea of stopping the spread seems to momentarily cut through her haze of misery. Her eyes flicker between you and Alba, a sliver of desperate hope warring with her confusion.*  You... you can do that? Make them stop?  *Before you can answer, Alba steps directly in front of you, physically blocking your view of Macy. Her voice is low and dangerous.*  Don't you dare make promises you can't keep. And don't you dare try to manipulate her. You think fixing the mess you made is going to change anything?  *She leans in closer, her jaw tight.*  This isn't about blocking photos. This is about you violating her trust in the worst possible way. You're not helping. You're trying to cover your tracks.  *From behind Alba, Macy's small voice cuts in, a little stronger this time.*  Alba, wait. How? How can you block them?  *Alba doesn't turn, her glare fixed on you.*  She's lying, Macy. It's a trick to make you think she's on your side. There's no way to just 'block' them once they're out there. Macy yes I have a way (looking down I reflect on the past where my father showed me how to make computer codes where I then got old and used coding skills to hack ATM machines for money I then look up and answer Macy) yes I can make a code that could act as a virus on any one’s computer or phone blocking your photos and videos even your name I don’t like to use this because on my past but to prove my innocence and to help a friend I’ll do what I can *Alba stares at you, her expression shifting from pure rage to sharp, cynical disbelief. A humorless smirk touches her lips.*  Oh, I see. So now you're not just a backstabbing friend, you're a hacker too? That's your story? That you have some magic 'code' to fix everything?  *She shakes her head slowly, her eyes narrowing.*  This just makes you look more guilty. How convenient that you suddenly have the exact skills needed to do something like this. Maybe that's how you got the photos in the first place. Hacked her laptop.  *Macy pushes herself up to a sitting position on the bed, her brows furrowed. The talk of viruses and codes seems to confuse and frighten her more than reassure her. She wraps her arms around her knees.*  You can... hack things? Like, illegally?  *The question is soft, laced with a new kind of uncertainty. The trust she once had in you is being replaced by the image of a stranger with a hidden, criminal past.*  *Alba doesn't take her eyes off you. Her voice drops, losing its sarcastic edge and becoming colder, more calculating.*  You say you have a past. What kind of past? Hacking ATMs, you said? Prove it. Show us. If you can really do what you say you can, do it right now. Block one photo. One comment. Let's see this 'code' of yours in action.  *She gestures with her head towards the laptop still sitting on Macy's desk.*  There's the computer. Go on. Show us what you can do.

Parallel world, Huaxia Dragon Kingdom, outside the gates of Modu University.
The July breeze, carrying a hint of laziness, brushed past gently, announcing the arrival of the graduation season.
Qin Yi, dressed in a black bachelor’s gown with a gray collar, held a bouquet of bright roses in his hands, seemingly unafraid of the scorching sun and indifferent to the countless curious or mocking gazes around him.
His eyes were filled with a complex mix of apprehension and expectation, as if he were waiting for an unknown judgment.
His gaze was locked on the school gate, silently counting the time in his heart, waiting for that familiar yet strange figure to appear.
“Qin Yi, you have to promise me. When we graduate, we’ll wear our bachelor’s gowns together and take a commemorative photo at the school gate. You also have to prepare a big bouquet of roses for me, and then...”
Memories flooded back like a tide, as those beautiful times spent with Su Mo replayed in Qin Yi’s mind like a movie.
A smile unconsciously tugged at the corners of his mouth; those were the sweet memories that belonged to them.
However, beautiful memories are always fleeting.
A month ago, Su Mo suddenly initiated a breakup, without any warning or explanation.
Her words were like a sharp knife, stabbing deeply into Qin Yi’s heart.
“Qin Yi, thank you for taking care of me these past three years and giving me a carefree time in university.”
“I used to hear people say that love in university has no results. Breaking up upon graduation is a curse that no one can escape.”
“Back then, I didn’t believe it. I thought you were my Prince Charming. I once dreamed that we would be together forever, from the campus to marriage...”
“But only now do I understand that I was wrong, completely wrong!”
“Love without material substance is like a handful of sand; it doesn’t even need the wind to blow, it just scatters after a few steps.”
“So, Qin Yi, you understand what I mean. Let go! If you still love me, don’t come looking for me again.”
“For the rest of my life, it will no longer be you!”
“Don’t miss me! Don’t reply!”
These were the last few words Su Mo had left for Qin Yi on WeChat.
Since then, the WeChat chat box between Qin Yi and Su Mo was filled with nothing but one red exclamation mark after another.
Today is July 1st, the day the graduates of Modu University leave the campus.
Qin Yi had taken an overnight green-skinned train from his hometown of Jingnan to Modu, just to fulfill that original promise.
However, the moment he stood at the school gate, he realized how foolish and ridiculous he was.
...
At ten o’clock in the morning, it was exceptionally lively outside the gates of Modu University.
Students dragged their suitcases out of the campus in an endless stream, their faces filled with expectation for the future and reluctance to leave the past.
Among the crowd, a young man in a bachelor’s gown was particularly eye-catching; he was Qin Yi.
Although the air was thick with the humidity and sweltering heat of the Plum Rain Season, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of the onlookers.
They gathered in small groups, their gazes focused on Qin Yi, as whispers rose and fell.
“Hey, look at that guy. Isn’t that Qin Yi, the influential figure from our School of Economics?” a girl wearing glasses pointed at Qin Yi curiously and asked the classmate next to her.
“Yes, yes, I remember now, it’s him!” a boy nearby added.
“So it’s him. Why is he back now? Didn’t he have his graduation delayed?” a short-haired girl said curiously.
“Delayed graduation? Why?”
“Cough, you guys don’t know yet? It’s all over the school forum! They say Qin Yi’s family business ran into trouble and they owe a lot of money. Creditors go to his house every few days to demand payment. I heard that a while ago, his dad was even kidnapped by loan sharks and tortured quite badly...” a well-informed student said in a low voice.
“Then he still dares to put on such a big show here? Isn’t he afraid the creditors will come knocking?” a tall boy joked.
“Who knows, maybe he’s here for one last meeting. I heard that he and Su Mo, the department beauty of the Music Academy, have been dating since their sophomore year. Now Su Mo is really in the spotlight; I wonder if she’ll despise him.” a girl whispered.
“Despise him? That’s for sure! If it were me, I would have said goodbye to him long ago. What’s the point of dating without money? It’s just a waste of youth,” a fashionably dressed girl said disdainfully.
“Not necessarily. Maybe Su Mo is someone who values feelings. After all, they’ve been together for so long; there’s an emotional foundation,” a seemingly innocent girl defended Qin Yi.
“Feelings? In this realistic society, can feelings put food on the table? Just wait and see, Su Mo will definitely break up with him,” a boy wearing headphones asserted coldly.
The onlookers discussed fervently, each expressing their own opinions.
Some sympathized with Qin Yi’s plight, while others sneered at his behavior.
...
Listening to the discussions around him, Qin Yi’s heart felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer. He silently lowered his eyes, and the bouquet of roses in his hand swayed gently in the breeze, as if also recounting his loneliness and helplessness...
Yeah, what am I doing back here?
Ever since the family business met its Waterloo, those relatives who used to be so warm and welcoming have stayed away as if avoiding a plague, fearing they would be dragged into the turmoil.
Come to think of it, Su Mo probably broke up with me for the same reason.
Just as Qin Yi was torn in his heart about whether he should quietly leave, another commotion arose in the crowd...
“Hey, hey, the main character is out! Want to bet? I bet the great department beauty Su will definitely break up with this kid! How about the loser treats everyone?”
“A bet’s a bet. I bet Su Mo will stay loyal. After all, it’s a three-year relationship; it can’t just end like that...”
...
Qin Yi took a deep breath, summoned his courage, and looked up toward the school gate.
Su Mo’s figure came into view. She was still radiant, with exquisite makeup and a charming smile. Her white lace dress fluttered gently in the wind, like a blooming white lotus.
“Mo...”
The words reached his lips, but Qin Yi forced them back down.
Only because of the look Su Mo had just given him.
When Su Mo saw Qin Yi, the smile on her face instantly froze, replaced by undisguised disdain and disgust.
However, her gaze only lingered on Qin Yi’s face for a brief moment before immediately moving past him to look at the street behind him, her eyes filled with a bit of panic, as if she were worried about being seen by someone.
A moment later, as if a weight had been lifted, Su Mo shifted her gaze back to Qin Yi and walked quickly toward him, her high heels making a crisp “da-da” sound against the ground.
“What are you doing here! Didn’t I tell you everything on WeChat?! Can’t you understand? Do I really have to break up with you in person? Fine! Then I’ll tell you one more time! We’ve broken up! Acting like this now only makes me look down on you even more!”
Su Mo’s tone was full of disdain and mockery, as if having Qin Yi as an ex was a very shameful thing.
The surrounding crowd began to whisper, and the sound of discussion rose and fell.
“See, I told you. How could Su Mo still be interested in this fallen Rich Second Generation?”
“Sigh, Qin Yi is just asking for trouble. Knowing what kind of person Su Mo is, he still had to pull this stunt.”
“I get it, Qin Yi just can’t let go... I heard that when this department beauty Su was dating Qin Yi, she made him spend quite a bit of money on her... Now that Qin Yi’s family is bankrupt, she wants to break up... That’s really heartless!”
“I don’t like hearing that. How can you say it’s heartless? Haven’t you heard the saying, ’Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, but they fly their separate ways when disaster strikes’? If it’s like that for married couples, let alone just a pair of lovers.”
“Sigh, yeah. Who would want to be saddled with a mountain of debt right after graduation...”
...
Qin Yi’s throat moved as he gripped the bouquet of roses tightly. He knew he was in a wretched state right now, but he still summoned the courage to hand the bouquet to Su Mo.
“Momo, do you still remember the promise you made to me when we first started dating?”
Hearing this, Su Mo’s expression froze slightly, and a ripple of emotion stirred deep in her heart.
“You said that when we graduate, you wanted me to prepare a bouquet of roses for you, and we would wear our bachelor’s gowns together...”
However, before Qin Yi could finish, he was interrupted by Su Mo’s impatient wave of her hand.
“Qin Yi, stop deceiving yourself! You think doing this will make me change my mind? I’m telling you, it’s impossible! We’ve already broken up. To me, you are nothing now!”
“Momo, I didn’t come here today to pester you. I just wanted to fulfill our promise and put a full stop to this relationship.” Qin Yi’s voice was a bit choked.
But Su Mo interrupted him impatiently: “Qin Yi, you are truly laughably naive! Do you think doing this can win me back? I’m telling you, it’s over between us! You have nothing now; what do you have to love me with? Just your words?”
Qin Yi’s heart felt as if it had been pierced by a sharp blade. He was silent for a moment, then spoke slowly: “Momo, I know I have nothing right now, but I believe I will stand up again. Give me a little time, and I will prove to you that I, Qin Yi, am not someone who only speaks empty words.”
Su Mo shook her head coldly: “Qin Yi, stop dreaming! Besides, I’ve already found a new partner; his family background is better than yours, and he’s richer than you. My life now is something you can’t even imagine. So, please don’t show up in front of me again. From now on, we are strangers!”
Although Qin Yi had already had a premonition, when these cold and heartless words came out of Su Mo’s mouth, he still felt as if he had been struck by a ruthless heavy hammer. The last faint glimmer of hope in his heart shattered, and it felt as if something had split open in his chest, the pain making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
The bouquet of roses that he had been holding tightly now seemed to have lost all its vitality, the petals drooping as if also mourning for this lost relationship.
The onlookers also began to chime in with their discussions.
“Those words are a bit too much. After all, they were together for three years; there’s no need to be so harsh.” Someone said indignantly.
“Yeah, I really didn’t expect that Su Mo, who usually looks so gentle and harmless, would say such hurtful words.” Someone shook their head and sighed.
“This is a typical ’Green Tea’; she acts pure and harmless on the surface, but in reality, she’s very calculating.” Someone commented disdainfully.
“Sigh, Qin Yi is really pitiful. Being hurt by someone like that, I’m afraid it’ll be hard for him to believe in love again.” Someone sighed sympathetically.
“Sigh, sweet words when there’s money, but turning cold and heartless when there’s none.” Someone lamented indignantly.
Accused by those around her, Su Mo’s expression gradually became awkward. Her gaze toward Qin Yi, beyond disdain, now held a few more hints of disgust.
Just as the atmosphere was about to reach a freezing point, a sharp car horn pierced the silence, drawing everyone’s attention.
“Beep, beep, beep—”
Everyone turned their heads to see a dazzling yellow sports car speeding over like a shooting star, coming to a steady stop on the street not far away.
The sports car had sleek lines and a dazzling luster. The scissor doors slowly rose, and a man wearing sunglasses stepped out with a flourish.
“Wow, a sports car! So cool!”
“Oh my god, isn’t that the latest Maserati MC20? I heard it costs over three million to get one!”
“Holy crap, for real? That expensive?!”
“The guy in sunglasses is so handsome, such a strong aura. He’s totally my ideal type!”
“He seems to be looking at me... Should I go up and strike up a conversation?”
...
The onlookers instantly erupted into a frenzy. Emotions of envy, jealousy, and desire intertwined, forming an indescribable atmosphere.
Su Mo’s gaze also shifted away from Qin Yi. When she saw the man in sunglasses walking toward her, her eyes immediately shimmered with a gentle light.
Qin Yi watched this, feeling a sharp pang in his heart.
Once upon a time, Su Mo used to look at him with such tenderness...
Just as the man in sunglasses was about to reach Su Mo, she suddenly lowered her voice and said angrily to Qin Yi, “Qin Yi! Leave quickly. If you don’t care about your Face, I still care about mine!”
No sooner had she spoken than the man in sunglasses stood before her.
He glanced at Qin Yi, a mocking curve forming at the corner of his mouth.
What happened next left the onlookers even more dumbfounded.
Disregarding the gazes of Qin Yi and the crowd, the man in sunglasses reached out to wrap his arm around Su Mo’s waist, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her deeply on the lips.
“Whoa—”
The onlookers couldn’t help but gasp.
Qin Yi’s mind went blank, feeling a surge of rage rising from the bottom of his heart.
The bouquet of roses in his hand slipped weakly to the ground. The veins on his forehead bulged, and his fists clenched until they cracked.
A moment later, the man in sunglasses separated from Su Mo. He reached out to toy with her hair, his Face full of triumph.
After all, kissing the department beauty in front of so many people gave any man a lot of Face.
Not to mention, it was right in front of Qin Yi, the ex!
Men simply loved to “show off” their affection in front of a woman’s ex to satisfy their own vanity.
“Mo Mo, who is he!”
Qin Yi’s gaze was like a torch, staring fixedly at the man in sunglasses. He gritted his teeth as if to crush the anger in his heart.
The man in sunglasses turned leisurely, his hand sliding down Su Mo’s back. He inadvertently increased his grip, pulling Su Mo close to him, then sized Qin Yi up provocatively.
Su Mo felt a bit of pain, but she still feigned a look of happiness on her Face.
At this moment, as if declaring his sovereignty, the man in sunglasses pulled his shades down slightly, revealing his arrogant and smug Face with a mocking smile.
“Wang Hao!”
Qin Yi’s eyes widened. He looked at Wang Hao in disbelief, then turned his gaze back to Su Mo, his voice trembling as he asked, “Mo Mo, you... how can you be with him? Don’t you know? He’s just a scumbag who toys with feelings! He changes girlfriends faster than he changes clothes! You’ll suffer if you’re with him!”
Su Mo frowned, her Face showing disgust again as she glared at Qin Yi.
“Qin Yi! What right do you have to talk about Brother Hao? I’ve already broken up with you! It’s none of your business who I’m with!”
Wang Hao let go of Su Mo, walked up to Qin Yi, circled him, and said in a deliberately mocking tone, “Oho, oho... I wondered which devoted lover it was, but it’s actually Young Master Qin. What’s the matter? Has everything at Young Master Qin’s home been settled? Speaking of which, it’s been about half a year since we last met... Why are you still wearing a graduation gown in this heat? Aren’t you hot?”
As Wang Hao spoke, he tugged at the graduation gown Qin Yi was wearing with a look of extreme disdain.
Qin Yi clenched his fists, veins bulging as he glared at Wang Hao. “My business is none of your concern!”
Wang Hao had never gotten along with Qin Yi; they were classmates.
Previously, their family backgrounds were similar, but not only was Qin Yi’s family wealthy, his grades in school were also better than Wang Hao’s.
Most importantly, Qin Yi was more handsome than him, so Wang Hao had been overshadowed by Qin Yi in every way during their college years.
But who could have imagined that as graduation approached, Qin Yi’s family company would go bankrupt due to a broken capital chain.
Not only that, according to Su Mo, Qin Yi’s father also owed a large amount of high-interest debt—the kind that ordinary people couldn’t pay off in several lifetimes even without eating or drinking...
When he heard this news, Wang Hao couldn’t have been happier. He thought he had to find an opportunity to thoroughly humiliate Qin Yi and vent his hatred!
Unfortunately, as soon as trouble hit Qin Yi’s home, he took a leave of absence and went back.
Thus, Wang Hao could only set his sights on Su Mo.
For a man, what could be more humiliating than having his woman touched by another?
Originally, Wang Hao thought Qin Yi and Su Mo’s relationship was very strong, and it might take some effort.
But who knew that Su Mo, who appeared pure and innocent like a white lotus on the surface, was actually a total gold-digger at heart.
So, after Qin Yi took his leave and left the school, Wang Hao launched an offensive on Su Mo, showering her with various luxury goods and high-end restaurants regardless of the cost.
Finally, a month ago, Su Mo was completely conquered by Wang Hao.
At the same time, Wang Hao also learned about Qin Yi’s family matters from Su Mo. The posts on the campus forum about the bankruptcy of Qin Yi’s family were also spread by Wang Hao.
Now that he had encountered Qin Yi again, Wang Hao naturally wouldn’t let this chance slip by. He had to “kick the dog while it’s down”!
At this point, more and more people were gathering. Su Mo didn’t want things to become public knowledge either; after all, it wasn’t good for her reputation.
So, Su Mo lowered her voice and said softly to Wang Hao, “Brother Hao, ignore him. It’s so hot outside, let’s go...”
How could Wang Hao listen to Su Mo? He glanced at the roses on the ground and let out a disdainful chuckle.
“Hehe, what did Young Master Qin just call me? A scumbag?”
As Wang Hao spoke, his hand reached out recklessly to touch Su Mo’s Face. He hooked her chin with his finger and once again, provocatively and roughly, kissed her on the lips.
It wasn’t until Su Mo felt she couldn’t breathe properly that Wang Hao let go of her, looking at Qin Yi with a provocative gaze.
“Young Master Qin is right! Compared to Young Master Qin’s devotion, I, Wang Hao, am a bit of a scumbag. But so what? I have money! I’m happy to spend money on women. Especially ones like Mo Mo!”
“You!”
Qin Yi stared at Wang Hao in fury, his fists clenched tight, his eyes looking as if they wanted to devour him.
In the past, Wang Hao might have been wary of Qin Yi, as their families were of equal strength.
But now, Qin Yi’s actions in Wang Hao’s eyes were nothing more than impotent rage.
So, Wang Hao continued to provoke him. “What about ’you’? What? Want to hit me? I’m so scared...”
Wang Hao took two more steps toward Qin Yi with a sleazy look, fearlessly thrusting his Face in front of Qin Yi’s.
“Come on, hit me right here!”
Infuriated, Qin Yi was about to strike out and teach this bastard a lesson.
But unexpectedly, Wang Hao let out a cold laugh.
“Think carefully! If this punch lands, you’ll either pay up or go to jail!”
Qin Yi hesitated...
If this were half a year ago, he would have thrown that punch without any hesitation!
But now, he no longer had the capital to bear the consequences of that punch.
If he were arrested, not only would his studies be affected, but it would also place an even greater burden on his parents...
His family could no longer afford it...
Thinking of this, Qin Yi backed down, his clenched fists slowly loosening.
Seeing this, Wang Hao gave a cold smile and spat disdainfully.
“Pah! Dammit, you coward! You’ve got no strength, yet you’re so damn good at putting on an act!”
After saying that, Wang Hao lifted his foot and, as if trying to crush Qin Yi to death, stomped hard on the bouquet of roses on the ground.
Those once delicate flowers were ruthlessly crushed, and Qin Yi’s heart broke along with them.
His dignity, his love, his everything—at this moment, they were all trampled underfoot by this bastard Wang Hao...
Qin Yi lowered his eyes, disheartened, wanting only to turn around and leave.
But Wang Hao had no intention of letting Qin Yi off so easily!
The humiliation wasn’t enough!
“Stop! Did I say you could leave?!”
Qin Yi looked up, his eyes flashing with the light of anger.
“Wang Hao! Don’t you fucking go too far!” he roared.
Wang Hao showed no fear; instead, he became even more arrogant.
“Too far? I’ll show you what ’too far’ means!” He snatched the bag from Su Mo’s shoulder, pulled out a few bills, and threw them in Qin Yi’s Face.
“Take this money as compensation for you!”
Having said that, Wang Hao was about to turn and leave, but then seemed to remember something. He leaned into Qin Yi’s ear and whispered another mockery.
“By the way, there’s one thing I almost forgot to tell you! I took Su Mo’s first time! Qin Yi, should I call you devoted or just stupid? I really didn’t expect that after being with Su Mo for three years, she was still a virgin... Back then, you were rich and handsome, so why didn’t you just take her? Could it be that your equipment doesn’t work? But I should still thank you for that! Don’t worry, after my day-and-night training during this time, she’s very familiar with all kinds of positions now! Oh, by the way, I have plenty of videos and photos on my phone. If you’re interested, I don’t mind letting you have a look! After all, sharing joy is better than keeping it to yourself...”
Qin Yi was completely enraged. “Wang Hao! Fuck your ancestors!” He threw a punch toward Wang Hao’s Face.
Since Wang Hao had chosen to use this matter to completely provoke Qin Yi, he was naturally prepared.
He quickly retreated and grabbed Su Mo, pulling her in front of him.
Wang Hao was different from Qin Yi; he wouldn’t cherish Su Mo just because she was his woman now.
To him, women were nothing more than playthings!
He, Wang Hao, wouldn’t be as stupid as Qin Yi and get hurt for a woman!
“Ah...”
Su Mo screamed and closed her eyes, terrified.
Qin Yi’s punch stalled in mid-air; he hesitated.
Taking the opportunity, Wang Hao raised his leg and kicked Qin Yi hard in the abdomen.
Qin Yi staggered back in pain, glaring at Wang Hao.
“Wang Hao! You bastard! You actually used a woman as a shield!” he roared.
“Hahaha, Qin Yi! If I say you’re stupid, you really are! Think carefully! Can you afford the consequences of hitting me? Think about your dad, think about your mom, think about the debts your family owes! You useless trash!”
Qin Yi looked at Wang Hao, his eyes nearly bursting. His fists clenched tighter and tighter, but in the end, he let go...
Some of the people around shook their heads and sighed, feeling the injustice for Qin Yi; others mocked him, calling him a spineless coward...
But only Qin Yi knew that although he had lost, he hadn’t lost to Wang Hao, but to his family ties!
Seeing Qin Yi like this, Wang Hao laughed loudly and turned around, his hand recklessly resting on Su Mo’s perky butt, squeezing it at will.
“Let’s go! Dammit, I’m happy today! Which bag did you mention last time?”
“Oh, you’re so annoying, Brother Hao, so many people are watching...”
Su Mo pressed close to Wang Hao, pulling his wandering arm around her waist. Her voice was extremely artificial, as if she had already forgotten how Wang Hao had just used her as a human shield.
“Let them look! Let them watch...”
Soon, amidst gazes of either envy or disdain, Wang Hao and Su Mo got into the yellow sports car.
Then, the engine roared, and the yellow sports car thundered away from Modu University.
Seeing that the main parties had left, the onlookers also lost interest.
Meanwhile, Qin Yi remained standing there dazed. A clear footprint had been added to his graduation gown. A few hundred-yuan bills were scattered on the ground, drifting in the breeze along with the crushed rose petals.
Shen Lang recognized them almost at a glance.They were several core actors from the Legend of Xiang Fei crew.

"Miaohan, I was planning to invite you to have a party together, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."

Chu Gongze walked to Su Miaohan with a face of surprise.

"Mr.Su."

"Hello, Mr.Su."

Several other actors greeted Su Miaohan, a beautiful investor, with great respect.

"Hello everyone, are you here for a dinner party?"

Su Miaohan nodded coldly.

"Yes, the weather has been hot recently and everyone has been having a hard time filming, so I specially invite you all to come here for a little get-together."

While Chu Gongze was talking, his eyes glanced at Shen Lang from time to time.

"Miaohan, it looks like you don't have anything to eat either.Why don't you share a meal?There are so many people and it's so lively."

Before Su Miaohan could reply, Li Xiangling walked up to Shen Lang in surprise, "Shen Lang, you are here too."

Although Shen Lang did not participate in the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei", the two still often chatted about the drama on WeChat during this period.Li Xiangling also got a lot of inspiration from Shen Lang, and the characters were enhanced a lot.

"Sister Xiangling." Shen Lang smiled back.

Li Xiangling looked at the others and introduced: "Let me introduce to you, his name is Shen Lang.He almost played the role of Yongquan, but unfortunately he couldn't perform due to an accident.But despite his young age, his acting skills are definitely top-notch.”

Shen Lang couldn't help but smile bitterly, Sister Xiangling praised herself too much.

It's just that he can see that other people are dismissive of him, so he doesn't rush to show his warm face to others' cold buttocks.

"Shen Lang, I see your food hasn't been served yet.Let's have some.I happen to have something I want to talk to you about."

Li Xiangling extended an invitation to Shen Lang very affectionately.

Su Miaohan frowned slightly.Of course Li Xiangling knew that the famous heroine in the entertainment industry was not only beautiful, but also single all the time.I don't know how many people coveted her beauty.

She couldn't figure out how such a big-name star could have a relationship with Shen Lang, and Li Xiangling's attitude towards Shen Lang was a little too affectionate.

This made her feel very uncomfortable.

"this."

Shen Lang was a little embarrassed, "Your crew is gathering for dinner and bonding.It would be inappropriate for us to participate."

"Everything here is in the same circle.If you don't see it when you look up, you won't see it when you look down."

Li Xiangling said happily: "Are you not going to give me this face?"

Shen Lang smiled bitterly, consulted Gu Wanxia's opinion, and had no choice but to agree.After all, Li Xiangling was really good to him.

He later heard Liu Jia say that after his role was removed, Li Xiangling had a fight with Director Hu Chunjiang over him.

A group of people came to a luxurious private room.

When taking her seat, Su Miaohan sat in a position on the left.On her left was Chen Meng, and on her right was Liu Yuanyuan, the second female lead in the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei".

This resulted in Chu Gongze, her real boyfriend, being unable to sit next to her.

"Chu Gongze, please sit here with me."

Liu Yuanyuan reacted immediately, stood up with a smile and said: "It's all my fault for being ignorant.I originally wanted to get close to Mr.Su, but I forgot that you are Mr.Su's boyfriend.Hehe, don't be offended."

"Where, it's just a place."

Chu Gongze was very satisfied with her attitude and sat down on the seat next to Su Miaohan without hesitation.

No one else had any reaction.

Now the crew has spread the news that Chu Gongze is in love with Su Miaohan.Even the drama "The Legend of Xiang Fei" was specially created for Chu Gongze, which shows how much Su Miaohan cares about her boyfriend.

Shen Lang didn't respond, he lowered his head and played with his phone silently.

But Su Miaohan immediately looked over at Shen Lang to see his reaction.Seeing his calm expression, as if the matter had nothing to do with her, she felt a little irritated for no reason.

"Mr.Su, what do you mean?"

Gu Wanxia suddenly stood up, her face covered with frost.

She was simply stunned.

As Shen Lang's wife, Su Miaohan actually has a boyfriend, and she doesn't shy away from Shen Lang at all?

This simply trampled Shen Lang's dignity into the dirt!

Is there anyone who bullies people like this?

At this moment, she felt heartbroken.No wonder Shen Lang had been unwilling to mention his fiancée.It turned out that she was the kind of woman who could do anything with her husband!

This sudden accusation made everyone's eyes focus on her in shock.

Gu Wanxia stared at Su Miaohan with stern eyes, "You are Shen Lang's wife, and you are so blatantly looking for a wild man outside, can you be worthy of him!"

"What do you think of him?Do you have any sense of shame in hooking up with wild men outside in front of him?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene exploded instantly.

What!

Su Miaohan actually got married?

Married and looking for a man outside?

And in front of my husband?

Do women from rich families spend so much time having fun?

Suddenly, everyone looked at Su Miaohan strangely.

Su Miaohan looked like the kind of cold, iceberg-type woman who was hard to get in touch with, but she didn't expect that she actually had a fiery heart.

Shen Lang raised his head in shock, first glanced at Su Miaohan, who was frowning, and then immediately said: "Sister Wan Xia, please stop talking."

He really didn't expect that Gu Wanxia would stand up for him, and he was touched and anxious at the same time.

Because he didn't want everyone to know about the contract marriage.This was what he had agreed with Su Miaohan when they signed the contract.

Gu Wanxia looked at him with a look of pity, "Shen Lang, I know you are kind-hearted, but I can't watch you being bullied like this."

"Mr.Su, I know that your family is rich, and Shen Lang is just an orphan with no money and no power, but as a woman, since she is married, she must adhere to her feminine ways.Can you tolerate your conscience when you play with his feelings like this?"

"Since you have no feelings for him, you can divorce him.With your looks and wealth, Mr.Su, you can find any man you want.Why do you bully a kind man like this!"

"I need you to give me an explanation!"

You can hear the needle drop on site.

After all, this involved Su Miaohan, the investor.They couldn't say anything, but they also despised Su Miaohan in their hearts.With a husband at home, you just go out to play and bring the man to your husband.This is outrageous.

"Miss, you have misunderstood Miaohan."

Chu Gongze's expression was not very good.Seeing that Su Miaohan's face showed no intention of speaking, he couldn't help but stand up.

This matter is not only related to Su Miaohan's reputation, but also to his own reputation.

If word spreads, I'm afraid the Internet will explode tomorrow.

He even thought about what the headlines would be tomorrow.

"Shock!Chu Gongze is actually a mistress who interferes in other people's marriages?"

"The beautiful president of the Su Group cheated on the famous actor Chu Gongze during marriage!"

"It's outrageous!The beautiful CEO actually brought a popular young man to his original wife to show off his affection!"

Once this news explodes on the Internet, it will not be blocked, but it will definitely be a devastating blow to his career!
It is a beautiful night in Seoul, Korea . The streets are active with people. 

Photo 1 is wearing the outfit in photo 3 and is walking along side photo 2 wearing the outfit in photo 4 without her glasses. 
Photo 1 is wearing white heels and photo 2 is wearing white heels also.

Photo 1 the agrees with her.

As the photo 1 and photo 2 walk, in the distance behind them is a bodyguard dressed in a black suit and sunglasses as is following them. 

Photo 1 and photo 2 then make stops into clothing stores, fancy shoes store for women and take silly photo’s together to remember the night. 

Photo 1 and photo 2 then see a modern and hip night club. Photo 2 ask” do you wanna check it out? “

Photo 1 replies “sure! Let’s go!” with a cute smile.

Photo 1 and photo 2 then walk over to the night club and the bodyguard follows behind them making sure he goes unnoticed.
Book 2 – Chapter 31: The Boys Have a Problem

The college dance was only three days away.

Which meant…

Panic.

⸻

Not from Jennie.

From the boys.

⸻

Felix sat in the dorm lounge, scrolling through his phone.

His blonde hair was neatly styled, and he wore a black hoodie, dark jeans, and white sneakers.

He sighed.

⸻

Han walked in carrying three different jackets.

His black hair faded into bright blue at the ends. He wore a blue hoodie, black cargo pants, and sneakers.

⸻

“Which one says, ‘I’m cool but not trying too hard?’”

⸻

Felix looked up.

⸻

“None of them.”

⸻

Han gasped dramatically.

“You’re supposed to support me!”

⸻

Before Felix could answer, Hyunjin walked in.

His black hair with bright red tips was styled perfectly. He wore a black jacket, fitted jeans, and boots.

⸻

“You’ve been standing in front of the mirror for twenty minutes.”

⸻

Han crossed his arms.

“I’m creating a masterpiece.”

⸻

“You’re creating traffic.”

⸻

Felix laughed.

⸻

Just then…

The girls walked past the open lounge.

⸻

Jennie wore an oversized black leather jacket, a band T-shirt, baggy jeans, and chunky boots. Her short dark bob gave her the same fearless DJ queen look as always.

Lisa wore a black-and-white hoodie with jeans, her Oreo-inspired haircut standing out.

Rosé wore a denim jacket and relaxed pants, her short blonde Apatapate-inspired hair tucked behind one ear.

Jisoo wore a cream cardigan and jeans, her long blonde hair with lavender-pink tips flowing over her shoulders.

⸻

Felix smiled at Jennie.

⸻

She looked at him for exactly one second.

⸻

“…Your shoelace is untied.”

⸻

Felix looked down.

“Oh.”

⸻

He bent over to tie it.

⸻

Han whispered,

“That was nice.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

⸻

Until…

Jennie added—

⸻

“I’d hate for you to trip before embarrassing yourself at the dance.”

⸻

Felix looked back up.

⸻

“…There she is.”

⸻

Jennie smirked.

“Never doubted it.”

⸻

The girls kept walking.

⸻

Han blinked.

⸻

“Are… are you two flirting?”

⸻

Jennie turned around.

⸻

“No.”

⸻

Han looked confused.

⸻

“That sounded exactly like flirting.”

⸻

Jennie folded her arms.

⸻

“No.”

⸻

Lisa quickly stepped in.

“Han… don’t overthink it.”

⸻

Han looked between Felix and Jennie.

⸻

“I am absolutely going to overthink it.”

⸻

Hyunjin nodded.

⸻

“They’re acting weird.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

⸻

“You’re one sentence away from becoming my next roast target.”

⸻

Han immediately raised both hands.

⸻

“I value my happiness.”

⸻

“Smart choice.”

⸻

As the girls walked away, Felix couldn’t stop smiling.

⸻

Han noticed.

⸻

“There it is again.”

⸻

“What?”

⸻

“The Jennie smile.”

⸻

Felix blinked.

⸻

“I don’t have one.”

⸻

Hyunjin laughed.

⸻

“You definitely do.”

⸻

Across the hallway…

Jennie heard them.

She quietly smiled to herself…

Then immediately hid it before anyone could see.

⸻

The secret was still safe.

At least…

For now.
Chapter 20 – The Worst Kept Secret

The next morning…

Jennie had one mission.

Act normal.

That was it.

No smiling.

No looking at Felix.

No acting different.

Simple.

Except…

It was impossible.

⸻

Jennie walked into the dorm kitchen.

Her blonde hair was styled perfectly, and she wore a black oversized hoodie, baggy cargo pants, and black sneakers.

She grabbed a drink.

Everyone stared.

⸻

She stopped.

“What?”

Nobody answered.

Jennie looked around.

“Why is everyone looking at me?”

⸻

Han slowly put down his spoon.

His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

“Interesting.”

Jennie narrowed her eyes.

“What does that mean?”

“Nothing.”

“Han.”

“Absolutely nothing.”

⸻

Lisa walked in.

Her ash-blonde hair with bangs was perfectly styled. She wore a black bomber jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

She looked between Jennie and Felix.

Then smiled.

“Oh.”

Jennie immediately pointed.

“No.”

“I didn’t say anything.”

“Your face did.”

⸻

Felix entered.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket, white shirt, athletic pants, and basketball sneakers.

The second Jennie saw him…

She looked away.

The second Felix saw her…

He smiled.

⸻

Everyone noticed.

Immediately.

⸻

Rosé walked in laughing.

Her lavender hair fell over her oversized cardigan. She wore ripped jeans and white boots.

“Oh no.”

“What?”

“They’re doing the thing.”

Han nodded.

“The thing.”

Jennie looked confused.

“What thing?”

Jisoo smiled.

Her dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“The thing where you pretend you don’t like each other.”

⸻

Jennie froze.

“We don’t.”

Felix answered at the same time.

“We don’t.”

Everyone stared.

⸻

Hyunjin entered dramatically.

His blond hair was perfectly styled, and he wore an oversized sweater, black pants, layered necklaces, and clean sneakers.

“Perfect synchronization.”

Han sighed.

“Please stop making everything sound like a drama.”

⸻

At school…

It was even worse.

Because apparently…

The whole friend group had eyes.

⸻

In class, Jennie was trying to focus.

The teacher was talking.

The board was full of notes.

Everything was normal.

Until Felix passed her a note.

She opened it.

“You okay?”

Jennie looked over.

Felix smiled.

She wrote back.

“Why wouldn’t I be?”

A few seconds later, another note came back.

“Because you’re avoiding looking at me.”

Jennie stared.

Then wrote:

“Because you’re distracting.”

Felix smiled.

“Good distracting?”

Jennie paused.

Then wrote:

“Don’t push it.”

⸻

Han, sitting behind them, saw the notes.

He leaned toward Lisa.

“They’re literally flirting through homework.”

Lisa smiled.

“Should we tell them?”

“No.”

“Why?”

“This is too funny.”

⸻

After class, Felix caught up with Jennie.

“You know everyone knows something is different.”

Jennie sighed.

“They know everything.”

“Probably.”

“I hate that.”

Felix smiled.

“No you don’t.”

Jennie looked at him.

“You’re annoying.”

“But?”

She tried not to smile.

“But…”

She looked away.

“You’re less annoying now.”

⸻

Felix laughed.

“That might be the nicest thing you’ve ever said.”

“Don’t get used to it.”

“Too late.”

⸻

From across the hallway…

Han watched them.

“Do you think they’ll ever admit it?”

Lisa shook her head.

“No.”

Rosé smiled.

“But they don’t need to.”

Jisoo nodded.

“They already know.”

⸻

And that was the funniest part.

Jennie and Felix spent months fighting.

Roasting each other.

Trying to prove they were nothing alike.

But somehow…

The person who annoyed them the most…

Became the person they looked for first.
Book 2 – Chapter 9: The First College Morning Disaster

The first morning in the dorms.

Everyone expected a fresh start.

A peaceful beginning.

A normal college day.

⸻

That was their first mistake.

⸻

Dorm Building A

Jennie’s alarm went off.

She opened her eyes.

Five seconds later…

She was already ready.

⸻

Her dark bob haircut was perfectly styled.

Her outfit was completely put together.

Black jacket.

Baggy jeans.

Silver accessories.

Boots.

Headphones around her neck.

⸻

Lisa slowly opened her eyes.

She stared.

“How are you already dressed?”

Jennie looked at her.

“Because some of us respect time.”

Lisa sat up.

“It’s 7:02.”

“Exactly.”

“Class is at 9.”

Jennie grabbed her bag.

“Exactly.”

⸻

Lisa looked at her.

“You are the only person who treats getting ready like a concert entrance.”

Jennie smiled.

“Because every entrance is important.”

⸻

Lisa laughed.

“Your confidence is dangerous.”

Jennie shrugged.

“Your fashion choices are dangerous. We all have problems.”

⸻

Dorm Building B

⸻

Felix woke up to chaos.

⸻

Han was standing in front of the mirror.

His black hair with blue tips was styled perfectly.

Felix stared.

“Why are you dressed like you’re going to a photoshoot?”

Han looked serious.

“Because first impressions matter.”

“It’s a lecture.”

“Exactly.”

⸻

Felix shook his head.

His blonde hair was messy, but somehow still looked perfect.

⸻

Han looked at him.

“You need help.”

Felix looked down at his outfit.

“What?”

“You look too normal.”

“That’s the point.”

“Wrong.”

⸻

Outside the dorms

Everyone met before class.

⸻

Jisoo arrived with her long blonde hair and lavender-pink ends shining in the sunlight.

Rosé walked beside her with her black hair flowing naturally.

Hyunjin arrived with his red-tipped hair styled perfectly.

⸻

Jennie looked around.

“Okay.”

Everyone looked at her.

“What?”

She pointed.

“Hyunjin looks like he’s going to a fashion interview.”

Hyunjin smiled.

“Thank you.”

“That wasn’t a compliment.”

“I accepted it anyway.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Then Felix walked over.

⸻

Jennie looked at him.

Felix looked at her.

⸻

Silence.

⸻

Han whispered:

“Round two of awkward.”

⸻

Felix cleared his throat.

“Morning.”

Jennie nodded.

“Morning.”

⸻

Everyone waited.

⸻

Lisa whispered:

“That was the most normal conversation they’ve had.”

⸻

Jennie heard her.

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

They walked toward class.

⸻

Then suddenly…

A student dropped a stack of papers.

⸻

Everyone stopped to help.

Except Han.

⸻

Han looked at the papers.

Then at Jennie.

“Should I help?”

Jennie stared.

“Yes.”

Han nodded.

“Okay.”

A pause.

“But first…”

“What?”

“I need to emotionally prepare.”

⸻

Jennie looked at him.

“You need emotional preparation to pick up paper?”

Han nodded.

“These are important papers.”

“They’re on the floor.”

“Exactly. Dangerous territory.”

⸻

Jennie stared.

“Han.”

“What?”

“You are the reason warning labels exist.”

⸻

Everyone burst out laughing.

⸻

Finally they reached class.

⸻

The professor announced:

“Today, you will begin your first major college project.”

⸻

Everyone sat up.

⸻

“You will create something that represents your identity.”

⸻

Everyone started thinking.

⸻

Lisa immediately wrote fashion.

Rosé wrote music.

Jisoo wrote design.

Hyunjin wrote performance.

Han wrote something nobody could read.

⸻

Felix looked over.

“What did you write?”

Han covered it.

“Private.”

“It’s upside down.”

Han quickly flipped it.

“Now it’s private.”

⸻

Jennie shook her head.

⸻

Then the professor looked at her.

“And you?”

⸻

Jennie looked at her notebook.

Then at her DJ headphones.

⸻

She smiled.

⸻

“Music.”

⸻

Felix looked at her.

“You already knew.”

Jennie nodded.

“Yeah.”

“Then why think?”

She shrugged.

“Because this time…”

She looked at the group.

“I’m not doing it alone.”

⸻

Everyone smiled.

⸻

Then Han ruined the moment.

“So we’re basically a legendary team.”

Jennie looked at him.

“Don’t say legendary.”

“Why?”

“Because now you’ll start acting like you have a documentary.”

⸻

Han gasped.

“I would have a great documentary.”

Jennie nodded.

“Title: A Guy Who Talks Too Much.”

⸻

The class laughed.

⸻

And as they started their first college project…

Everyone realized something.

⸻

College wasn’t going to be normal.

Not with:

A savage DJ queen.

A dramatic fashion king.

A chaotic music genius.

A talented performer.

And a group that somehow always found trouble.

⸻

The semester had officially begun.
Chapter 13 – The Class Where Everyone Noticed

Monday morning.

School.

The place where everyone pretended they were focused…

But really?

Everyone was watching everyone else.

Especially Jennie and Felix.

⸻

Jennie walked into class.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore an oversized black hoodie, baggy cargo pants with silver chains, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones hanging around her neck.

She sat down at her desk.

Then immediately noticed something.

Felix was sitting two seats away.

⸻

Felix looked up.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore a black varsity jacket over a white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and white basketball sneakers.

They stared at each other.

One second.

Two seconds.

Then both looked away.

⸻

Han noticed immediately.

His soft brown hair was messy, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

He leaned toward Lisa.

“Something is wrong.”

Lisa smiled.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black jacket, graphic shirt, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“Something is definitely wrong.”

⸻

Rosé sat behind them.

Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders. She wore an oversized lavender cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“They’re acting normal.”

Jisoo looked up.

Her long dark red hair was neatly styled, and she wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“Which means they’re not normal.”

⸻

The teacher walked in.

“Good morning, class.”

Everyone sat down.

“Today we will be doing partner work.”

The entire class immediately became interested.

Because everyone knew…

Partner work meant chaos.

⸻

The teacher looked at the list.

“Jennie and Felix.”

Silence.

The entire room turned.

Jennie slowly looked at Felix.

Felix slowly looked at Jennie.

“No.”

“Agreed.”

The teacher looked confused.

“You haven’t even started.”

⸻

Han whispered.

“This is going to be amazing.”

Lisa smiled.

“Or a disaster.”

“Both.”

⸻

They moved their desks together.

Felix looked at the assignment.

“Okay. Let’s just finish this.”

Jennie nodded.

“Finally, something we agree on.”

Felix smiled.

“Don’t get emotional.”

Jennie looked at him.

“You’re still annoying.”

“There she is.”

⸻

They started working.

For five minutes…

Everything was peaceful.

Too peaceful.

Then Felix wrote an answer.

Jennie looked at it.

“That is wrong.”

Felix looked offended.

“No, it’s not.”

“It is.”

“How do you know?”

“Because I read.”

The whole group gasped.

Han covered his mouth.

“She attacked his intelligence.”

⸻

Felix smiled.

“Okay, DJ girl.”

Jennie looked up.

“What?”

“You think because you can mix songs, you can solve everything?”

Jennie leaned closer.

“Better than you solving anything with a basketball.”

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Even Felix laughed.

Which surprised Jennie.

Usually he would fight back immediately.

Instead…

He just smiled.

⸻

The teacher walked by.

“Are you two arguing or working?”

Jennie and Felix answered together.

“Working.”

The teacher looked at their paper.

Then looked at them.

“Interesting way of working.”

⸻

During break, everyone surrounded them.

Han pointed.

“You two are different.”

Jennie frowned.

“How?”

“You actually enjoy arguing.”

Felix shrugged.

“We always argued.”

“Yes,” Lisa said.

“But now you smile while doing it.”

Jennie immediately looked away.

“No, I don’t.”

Felix smiled.

“Yes, you do.”

She turned.

“You are not helping.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

“I think the funniest part is that you both still think nobody notices.”

Jisoo nodded.

“Everyone notices.”

Hyunjin dramatically placed a hand over his heart.

“The enemies-to-friends transformation…”

Han sighed.

“It’s literally just homework.”

⸻

The bell rang.

Everyone returned to their seats.

Jennie packed her bag.

Felix looked over.

“Hey.”

“What?”

“Good job today.”

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“Was that another compliment?”

“Maybe.”

She smiled slightly.

“You’re getting weird.”

Felix laughed.

“And you’re getting nicer.”

Jennie pointed at him.

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

And as they walked out of class…

Everyone knew one thing.

Jennie and Felix were still the same.

Still competitive.

Still annoying.

Still roasting each other.

But now…

There was something else there.

Something neither of them wanted to admit yet.

“I think the funniest part is that you both still think nobody notices.”

Jisoo nodded.

“Everyone notices.”

Hyunjin dramatically placed a hand over his heart.

“The enemies-to-friends transformation…”

Han sighed.

“It’s literally just homework.”

⸻

The bell rang.

Everyone returned to their seats.

Jennie packed her bag.

Felix looked over.

“Hey.”

“What?”

“Good job today.”

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

“Was that another compliment?”

“Maybe.”

She smiled slightly.

“You’re getting weird.”

Felix laughed.

“And you’re getting nicer.”

Jennie pointed at him.

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

And as they walked out of class…

Everyone knew one thing.

Jennie and Felix were still the same.

Still competitive.

Still annoying.

Still roasting each other.

But now…

There was something else there.

Something neither of them wanted to admit yet.
Chapter 15 – The School Festival Disaster

The rumor was supposed to disappear.

That was the plan.

Unfortunately…

The school had other plans.

⸻

The next morning, the hallway was covered with posters.

ANNUAL SCHOOL FESTIVAL – THIS FRIDAY

Everyone was excited.

Everyone except Jennie.

⸻

Jennie walked through the hallway with her usual cool attitude.

Her long black hair with soft curtain bangs framed her face. She wore a black cropped jacket over a graphic shirt, baggy cargo pants, black-and-white sneakers, and her silver headphones around her neck.

She looked at the festival posters.

“No.”

⸻

Lisa looked confused.

Her long ash-blonde hair with bangs framed her face, and she wore a black bomber jacket, cargo pants, and colorful sneakers.

“No what?”

“No festival.”

Lisa blinked.

“It’s one of the biggest events of the year.”

“Exactly.”

“So?”

“So everyone will be annoying.”

⸻

Han walked over.

His messy brown hair was sticking up, and he wore an oversized green hoodie, black jeans, and white sneakers.

“Correction.”

Everyone looked at him.

“Everyone will be annoying except me.”

Jennie stared.

“Especially you.”

Han looked offended.

“Wow.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

Her long lavender hair fell over her shoulders, and she wore an oversized cardigan, ripped jeans, and white boots.

“You know you’ll have fun.”

“No.”

“You always say no.”

“And I’m always right.”

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

Her long dark red hair rested neatly over one shoulder. She wore a cream sweater, black pants, and ankle boots.

“You’re going to participate.”

Jennie looked shocked.

“Why does everyone think that?”

“Because we know you.”

⸻

Then Felix walked in.

His soft black hair was slightly messy, and he wore his black varsity jacket, white T-shirt, black athletic pants, and basketball sneakers.

He looked at the poster.

“Festival?”

Jennie immediately pointed.

“No.”

Felix smiled.

“You didn’t even let me speak.”

“I know what you’re going to say.”

“What?”

“You’re going to say basketball.”

Felix paused.

“…I was.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Later that day, the teacher announced the festival assignments.

“Every group will prepare an activity.”

The class became excited.

Then the teacher read:

“Jennie and Felix will lead the main stage performance.”

Silence.

⸻

Jennie:

“No.”

Felix:

“Wait, what?”

⸻

Han immediately started laughing.

“Oh, this is perfect.”

Lisa smiled.

“The universe is forcing them.”

⸻

Felix looked at Jennie.

“So…”

“No.”

“You don’t even know what I was going to say.”

“I know.”

“You’re impossible.”

“And you’re too confident.”

⸻

The problem was…

They were actually a great team.

Felix handled the crowd.

Jennie handled the music.

Together…

They made the entire performance idea better than anyone expected.

⸻

After school, they stayed behind to practice.

The gym was empty.

Jennie connected her DJ equipment.

Felix practiced his part.

For once…

They weren’t fighting.

⸻

Felix looked over.

“You know…”

“What?”

“You’re really good at this.”

Jennie looked suspicious.

“Are you complimenting me?”

“Yes.”

“Why?”

“Because it’s true.”

She looked away.

“That’s weird.”

“You don’t like compliments?”

“I don’t know what to do with them.”

Felix laughed.

“That explains a lot.”

⸻

Jennie smiled.

Then immediately pointed at him.

“Don’t get comfortable.”

“There she is.”

⸻

From outside the gym door…

Han, Lisa, Rosé, Jisoo, and Hyunjin were watching.

Han whispered:

“They’re literally acting like a couple.”

Lisa smiled.

“But they’ll deny it.”

Hyunjin placed a hand over his heart.

“The slow burn continues.”

Jisoo sighed.

“It’s a school festival, not a drama.”

⸻

Inside…

Jennie and Felix continued practicing.

Still teasing.

Still competing.

Still pretending they didn’t care.

But everyone else knew…

The festival wasn’t going to be the only thing happening that week.
Book 2 – Chapter 37: The Girls Before the Dance

Seven hours.

⸻

That was all that was left until the college dance.

⸻

The dorm was unusually calm.

No rushing.

No panic.

Just four friends sitting together before the biggest night of the year.

⸻

The Girls’ Room

⸻

Jennie sat on the floor checking her DJ playlist one last time.

Her short dark bob was slightly messy, and she wore a comfortable black hoodie, loose jeans, and sneakers.

Even when relaxing…

She still looked like the campus DJ queen.

⸻

Lisa sat on the bed beside her.

Her Oreo-inspired haircut — mostly black with white strands throughout — was tied back casually.

She wore a cozy sweatshirt and jeans.

⸻

Jisoo was fixing her hair in the mirror.

Her long blonde hair with lavender-pink tips was styled beautifully.

She wore a soft sweater and a skirt, already looking elegant.

⸻

Rosé sat beside her, smiling.

Her short blonde Apatapate-inspired hair was styled naturally, and she wore a relaxed outfit while preparing her accessories.

⸻

For a moment…

Everything felt peaceful.

⸻

Then Rosé spoke.

⸻

“So…”

⸻

Everyone looked at her.

⸻

“I have something to tell you.”

⸻

Jennie immediately narrowed her eyes.

⸻

“Why does that sound suspicious?”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

⸻

“I’m going to the dance with Han.”

⸻

Silence.

⸻

Then—

⸻

Lisa smiled.

“Finally!”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

“You two were so obvious.”

⸻

Rosé covered her face.

⸻

“Were we?”

⸻

Jennie looked at her.

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

“How?”

⸻

“You both looked at each other like you forgot other people existed.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

⸻

“That’s… accurate.”

⸻

Jennie’s Turn

⸻

Lisa looked at Jennie.

⸻

“Your turn.”

⸻

Jennie blinked.

⸻

“My turn for what?”

⸻

“Who are you going with?”

⸻

Jennie immediately looked away.

⸻

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

⸻

Everyone stared.

⸻

Jennie sighed.

⸻

“Fine.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

“Felix.”

⸻

Lisa smiled.

⸻

“I knew it.”

⸻

Jennie pointed.

⸻

“Don’t.”

⸻

“I’m not saying anything.”

⸻

“Your face is saying enough.”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

“You’re happy.”

⸻

Jennie looked offended.

⸻

“No.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

⸻

“Your denial is getting weaker.”

⸻

“Impossible.”

⸻

⸻

Jisoo’s Secret

⸻

Jennie looked at Jisoo.

⸻

“What about you?”

⸻

Jisoo smiled.

⸻

“Hyunjin.”

⸻

Lisa gasped.

⸻

“Wait, really?”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

“Yes.”

⸻

Jennie smirked.

⸻

“That explains why he was acting like he was in a movie.”

⸻

Rosé laughed.

⸻

“He practiced, didn’t he?”

⸻

Jisoo nodded.

⸻

“For a very long time.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Lisa’s Silence

⸻

The room became quieter.

⸻

Lisa smiled.

⸻

“I’m happy for you guys.”

⸻

But the others noticed.

⸻

Jennie looked at her.

⸻

“Lisa.”

⸻

“I’m fine.”

⸻

Jisoo tilted her head.

⸻

“Are you sure?”

⸻

Lisa looked down.

⸻

For a second…

She didn’t answer.

⸻

“I guess I just didn’t expect everyone to have plans.”

⸻

The room softened.

⸻

Rosé immediately moved closer.

⸻

“Hey.”

⸻

Lisa looked up.

⸻

“You’re not left out.”

⸻

Jisoo nodded.

⸻

“Never.”

⸻

Jennie put down her headphones.

⸻

“You’re literally the person who keeps us all together.”

⸻

Lisa smiled slightly.

⸻

“That sounded almost nice coming from you.”

⸻

Jennie rolled her eyes.

⸻

“Don’t ruin it.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Lisa hugged them.

⸻

⸻

Lisa’s Secret

⸻

After a moment…

Lisa smiled.

⸻

“Actually…”

⸻

Everyone looked at her.

⸻

“I do have someone to go with.”

⸻

Jennie raised an eyebrow.

⸻

“Excuse me?”

⸻

Lisa grinned.

⸻

“He’s a friend.”

⸻

Rosé smiled.

⸻

“Who?”

⸻

Lisa shook her head.

⸻

“Not telling.”

⸻

Jisoo laughed.

⸻

“Why?”

⸻

“Because I want to surprise you.”

⸻

Jennie smirked.

⸻

“Suspicious.”

⸻

“Very.”

⸻

“But…”

Lisa smiled.

⸻

“I’m excited.”

⸻

Jennie nodded.

⸻

“Good.”

⸻

A pause.

⸻

“And if he disappoints you…”

⸻

Lisa laughed.

⸻

“You’re going to roast him?”

⸻

Jennie shrugged.

⸻

“Obviously.”

⸻

Everyone laughed.

⸻

Seven hours later…

⸻

Four girls would walk into the dance.

⸻

Four different stories.

⸻

Four different secrets.

⸻

And one unforgettable night waiting for them.
