The classroom door was flung open without warning,accompanied by a low,impatient curse.The wooden door shuddered from the impact.Jesee was lying lazily on her desk,trying to catch a glimpse of the newcomer through her half-closed eyes.Upon seeing the familiar figure,her heart dropped,and the sigh that had been caught in her throat turned into a barely audible murmur.
At the same time,another little drama was unfolding at the end of the corridor.
"Quite bold of you,young man,"Professor Zen said,one hand on his hip,the chalk in his other hand spinning on the podium."Only three days into the semester and you dare to be late?Let me see...I'll note that down."He tapped his index finger on the attendance book,his gaze sweeping over the silent students with a hint of helplessness.
Vsa scratched the back of his head,avoiding eye contact."Uh,Professor,I won't be late again."He felt triumphant inside but kept up a sincere front.
Professor Zen flipped a page."What's your name?I'll write it down.From now on,I'll call your name every time I take attendance,"he said in a way that was harsh for Vsa.Teachers usually called a few random names,but if Zen called Vsa's every time,it meant Vsa couldn't afford to be late again in Zen's class.
"My name's Vsa,"Vsa said with a pained expression.His happy college life was over,he thought.Oh God!
"Got it,Vsa.Don't be late again,"Zen warned,his face showing a bit of sternness.Punishing one to warn others—like killing a chicken to warn the monkeys,as they say in the East.
"Take your seat now,"Zen waved his hand.
Vsa scanned the classroom and spotted an empty seat on the right.His roommate was frantically signaling that there was a seat there.
As he was about to go over,he locked eyes with someone.Those eyes sparkled but held a hint of shyness.
"This must be Jesee,"Vsa thought.She quickly looked away,her long lashes fluttering like scared butterflies.Yet,her peripheral vision couldn't help but steal quick glances at Vsa,swift as illusions.
Vsa headed for the seat and sat down.Jesee immediately rolled her eyes,her fine eyebrows knitting into a frown,her gaze sharp enough to pierce ice.But deep in her eyes,there was a flicker of panic,like ripples on a calm lake after a stone was thrown in.
"Humph,turn to page twenty,"Jesee said,pointing at the textbook,her tone edged with annoyance.
Before Vsa could reply,a system message echoed in his mind:"Please choose one of the three options."
（1:I was held up on my way back.You're not upset,are you?）
（2:Jesee,were you worried about me?So you were!I'm truly honored!Next time,I won't let my princess worry.）
（3:What?Never seen a handsome guy before?）
He chose the second option and said to Jesee,"Jesee,were you worried about me?"His tone carried a hint of teasing.Jesee rolled her eyes again,her lips curling in disdain,as if to say,"Humph,think you can impress me with that?"But her ears turned pink,a spark of light flashing in her eyes.
"So you were!I'm truly honored!Next time,I won't let my princess worry,"Vsa muttered to himself.Jesee's ears were now quite red.She raised her chin arrogantly,her eyes darting over Vsa's face like restless little fish,never quite meeting his gaze.
Vsa felt a secret joy.It seemed he'd passed the test.He noticed Jesee's outfit—a mint green dress that covered her snow-white legs.Alas,no view of the scenery today.
Jesee suddenly felt his gaze and instinctively shrank back.The dress,already covering her thighs,now outlined them even more.Beneath the dress lay legs she'd carefully shaped—full,round,yet shyly beautiful.
Vsa naturally noticed this too.Big,round,so big and round.But he quickly shifted his gaze.This action caught Jesee's attention.Her eyes sharpened,as if they could scorch,yet her pupils fluttered like startled birds,her bold posture on the verge of collapsing in the wind.
"Humph,pervert,"Jesee said,pretending to be annoyed.But in my heart, I had already figured out how to deal with Vsa, and when I thought about it, I felt a little amused.
"Since you're so interested in the class,Vsa,"Professor Zen raised an eyebrow,his finger tapping the attendance book rhythmically,"why don't you explain what's on page twenty?"
As Vsa stood up,Jesee's slender hand pinched his thigh.
Vsa's face instantly twisted,hissing like a snake.But he forced himself to say to Professor Zen,"I don't know."
"Since you don't know,you should focus on the lecture instead of whispering,"Professor Zen said,addressing Vsa but also warning the entire class to stop passing notes.
Jesee's lashes cast shadows under her eyes.Her fingers absentmindedly fiddled with the hem of her dress.She wanted to laugh but bit her lip until the taste of iron filled her mouth.Under the dress,her smooth calves swayed happily with her suppressed laughter.
Vsa was really annoyed.Both Jesee and I had spoken,so why was I the only one being called out?Well,mainly because Jesee had just pinched me.
When I sat down, I watched her silently smile and her body sway slightly. Helplessly, I shook my head and chuckled softly.
Vsa is shouting in his brain about how much the Jesee system likes me, after all, she used to have some unfamiliarity with me, but now she dares to joke with me.
Congratulations to the host, Jesee's favorability towards the host has reached 50 points. "
How fast? I remember it was only 22:00 when I watched it this morning
Mainly because it keeps increasing while waiting for the host at noon
Vsa looked at Jesee with complex eyes.My love for her is also rapidly growing in my heart.
