Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 34 She can only love one person in this life.

Having almost been late yesterday, Shi Sui woke up half an hour earlier this time. There weren't many people in the classroom when she arrived, but—

Shi Sui looked around at her seat again and again. Why were there so many gift bags on her desk? And under the desk too, why were there so many gift boxes? There was absolutely no room to put anything down.

Suddenly, she understood.

Yan Ze arrived at school very early, which was the earliest he had ever arrived at school, all in order to fulfill his mission and put the things on Shi Sui's desk in advance.

He secretly observed the girl's behavior behind him. He saw that she moved the things on the table without saying a word, then opened the table lid and rummaged through the drawer.

Yan Ze wondered: What was she doing? Shouldn't she be asking what these gifts were and who sent them?

He had already prepared a little drama in his mind. As soon as Shi Sui asked, he would immediately answer that it was given by the handsome and dashing Brother Chi, but since Brother Chi didn't get up early, he could only ask him to deliver it.

Then you'll see Shi Sui's tearful expression as she utters a long string of praises for Chi Yan, becoming increasingly infatuated with him.

But now—I see Shi Sui stuffing the books from the drawer into her schoolbag.

Yan Ze finally couldn't hold back any longer and turned around to ask, "Shi Sui, what are you doing?"

"Moving things around," Shi Sui replied matter-of-factly, then, as if remembering something, she looked into his eyes and said sincerely, "Yan Ze, although we haven't chatted much these days, you play basketball very well and are very loyal. Thank you for your consideration. I'm very happy to be your deskmate. Until we meet again."

"What do you mean?" Yan Ze was completely confused.

“There are so many things on the table that don’t belong to me. Doesn’t this mean I have to leave the international class as soon as possible?” Shi Sui said. “Although I don’t know which class I’ve been assigned to, I can tidy up my things first and then go to the teacher’s office to ask.”

Yan Ze finally understood Shi Sui's thought process and loudly told her, "Everything on this table is yours!"

"Huh?" Shi Sui asked in confusion, "Isn't it something from Chi Yan?"

“Don’t you take a good look? These are all women’s clothes. Do you mean Brother Chi would wear women’s clothes?” Yan Ze pointed to the orange bag.

"How could I possibly rummage through other people's things?" Shi Sui muttered under her breath, "I've only known Chi Yan for a few days, who knows if he really has some kind of special fetish."

Yan Ze took two deep breaths: "Luckily, Brother Chi isn't here. He would be furious if he knew you were talking nonsense like that."

Shi Sui shut her mouth. Of course she knew Chi Yan wasn't there, otherwise why would she have such wild fantasies about him wearing women's clothing?

Yan Ze finally revealed the answer: "Chi Ge bought all these things for you."

"You bought it for me?" Shi Sui expressed her firm disbelief.

"I only bought you a few clothes, they're not worth much."

"Oh, I understand."

"What do you understand?" Yan Ze asked, afraid she might overthink it. "It's just because I feel sorry for you and you don't have any clothes to wear. Don't have any other thoughts. Brother Chi won't pursue you."

"I see." Shi Sui finally understood. "I thought it was because I've been wearing my school uniform all week and he thought I was dirty. Turns out he just pitied me and didn't think I was dirty."

Yan Ze looked at her. The girl was still wearing her old-fashioned school uniform, but the cuffs and collar were very clean, so she must have changed it every day.

He said, "Anyway, Brother Chi must have disliked the fact that you wear your school uniform every day. He bought you new clothes, so just accept them. It's only the cost of a few meals."

Shi Sui wasn't sure about the price of the clothes, nor did she know how much these young masters spent on meals.

She hesitated before asking, "Has he always been this good to his younger brother?"

"What do you mean?"

“What I mean is,” Shi Sui looked at him and asked, “is he good to you?”

"Great, then no more nonsense."

"oh oh."

Shi Su stared at the gift bag for a while, then wondered: Are these clothes my little brother's work uniform?

If she can stay in the international class, she will work even harder to praise Chi Yan in the future, giving him water when he is thirsty and feeding him when he is hungry, improving herself and becoming a capable assistant among the younger brothers.

"By the way," Yan Ze lowered his voice and asked gossipily, "what's your relationship with Xu Chaomu? I saw you walking with him yesterday."

"My friend."

"Just ordinary friends?" Yan Ze pressed.

"Otherwise, we went to the bookstore together yesterday to buy study guides."

"How did you meet?" Yan Ze pressed further.

"We met on the street." Shi Sui thought for a moment and didn't hide anything. "We were both at the bookstore buying books, wearing the same school uniform, and that's how we met."

Yan Ze nodded thoughtfully, and after a while, he said, "Xu Chaomu is no match for our Brother Chi."

"Hmm?" What's there to compare?

"Xu Chaomu is only good at academics. As for his personality, he doesn't like to talk and seems difficult to get along with. His family is poor, and he's not as handsome as our Brother Chi. Not to mention his health, he's sickly and looks like he'll die young—"

Shi Sui interrupted him: "You're not allowed to say that about him."

She was getting angry, and even if the person opposite her was Chi Yan's underling or colleague, she felt an urge to hit him.

Yan Ze was taken aback. He wanted to ask, "Is there something you can't say?" But then he thought that it was indeed wrong to speak ill of Shi Sui's friend in front of her.

But he still had to ask: "Anyway, Xu Chaomu is not as good as our Brother Chi, you agree with that, right?"

“Definitely,” Shi Sui agreed.

After all, he had already taken money from them before, and now he's taken the work clothes too. From now on, he'll be a staunch supporter of Chi Yan.

Big brother, you are heaven and earth, big brother, you can stand tall and upright.

Big Brother is like the wind and the rain; Big Brother can command the wind and rain.

Yan Ze looked at Shi Sui approvingly and nodded. He found it quite easy to chat with her, as they had common topics. He then asked, "Do you know who the school's most handsome guy is?"

"Then it must be Chi Yan." Even if it isn't, she will definitely support Chi Yan as the new school heartthrob.

“Chi Yan is one, but there are others.”

"Anything else?" Shi Sui suddenly thought, "Just like there are two school beauties, are there several school hunks too?"

"Yes. There are four heartthrobs at our school."

"?" Oh ho, the F4 of an old-fashioned aristocratic academy?

Yan Ze then showed a disgusted expression, "Xu Chaomu, whom I just mentioned, is the school heartthrob among some tasteless girls. Those girls just like his aloof and poor appearance. They're blind, they have no taste at all."

"..." Don't say anything bad about Xu Chaomu in front of me anymore, my fist is really going to come hard.

"And then there's Gu Chenyi. He looks like that and his personality is the same, but he's inexplicably popular in the regular class and can be considered the school heartthrob."

Shi Sui fell silent: Does he even deserve it?

"There's another school heartthrob, Pei Shuoxun from the next class. He's the student council president, has a gentle personality, and is the kind of person you can talk to. He's very popular with the girls, and he and Shangguan Ying are a tacitly acknowledged couple. Although they haven't made it public, everyone thinks so. But actually—"

"Actually?" This couldn't help but arouse Shi Sui's innate Chinese gossip instinct.

"Actually, Pei Shuoxun has always had a white moonlight in his heart. He has never given up on it all these years and has been searching for the white moonlight without telling his family. However, no one knows who his white moonlight is. They only know that it is a man."

"Wow." Shi Sui was stunned. She composed herself and exclaimed, "He's quite devoted."

"Who knows? Maybe his family has already taken care of that white moonlight. After all, wealthy families value matching social status. It's already difficult enough that his mother accepted him back home. She'll definitely take advantage of his value and eventually arrange a marriage between him and the Shangguan family."

"But isn't Pei Shuoxun gay?" Would the Shangguan family agree to that? How miserable would that be for Shangguan Ying?

"I think it should be two," Yan Ze whispered.

Seeing that the conversation was getting more and more heated and was interfering with her studies, Shi Sui decided to end the topic.

She said, "Anyway, there's only one school heartthrob in my heart, and that can only be my deskmate."

Before Chi Yan even entered the classroom, he saw his deskmate and Yan Ze huddled together, whispering something.

What's going on? How come she and Yan Ze, that gossipy old woman, have so much to talk about?

Chi Yan approached with a stern face and strode forward.

As a result, I heard Shi Sui say, "Anyway, no matter what, there is only one school heartthrob in my heart, and that can only be my deskmate."

His cheeks immediately turned bright red, followed by a suspicious pinkish hue that quietly spread across his face.

Chi Yan scratched the back of his head, coughed lightly, pretended not to hear, and asked casually, "What are you talking about?"

Upon hearing the voice, Shi Sui realized that there was another person beside her. The boy turned his face slightly, revealing a perfect jawline, thick and long eyelashes, and deep and beautiful eyes. There was a light red beauty mark at the corner of his eye that was extremely difficult to notice. He squinted his eyes, looking like a lazy big cat that hadn't woken up yet.

"Thank you, deskmate," Shi Sui said. "Yan Ze told me all of this, saying that you bought all these things for me."

"Don't think too much."

Shi Sui knew, of course, that he was pitying her, but she wasn't the kind of stubborn, self-respecting girl who would accept these gifts; she was actually hoping that the rich man would pity her a little more.

"I know what you mean, I didn't think much of it. I'm very happy to receive these." Shi Sui smiled sweetly and sincerely praised, "Classmate, you look especially handsome today."

Although Yan Ze turned around and pretended to play on his phone, he was secretly listening. He felt that he was doomed. Shi Sui had met the perfect Chi Ge, and everyone else was just a passerby. She could only love him for the rest of her life.
