The backdrop can also be propped up.

Chapter 137 Hearing this question

Upon hearing this question, Qin Men smiled and said, "A holiday? I do have a big holiday with Luo Yingying, and I also suggest you stay away from her."

"Why?" Jin Youan asked, looking upset.

"Well... what exactly do you want to ask?" Qin Men asked. "I have an appointment, so I can't explain everything to you from beginning to end."

Jin Youan blinked and said, "Why did you and Luo Yingying have an argument at the library that day?"

“She wanted to get back together with me, but I didn’t agree,” Qin Men replied.

"Huh?" Jin Youan looked a little surprised.

"What's so surprising? That's the truth. What did she tell you?" Qin Men smiled, and the beauty mark at the corner of his left eye twitched slightly—it could be said to have added to the beauty of Qin Men's androgynous face.

"Let me guess, did she tell you that we have some issues, and I'm not willing to forgive her? And she's been humbly begging for my forgiveness?" Qin Men asked with a smile, arms crossed.

Everyone had left, and the students cleaning the classroom hadn't arrived either. The midday sun shone on the back of the Qin Gate, gilding its backlit front with a golden sheen.

Jin Youan looked at the imposing figure in front of him, and considering that what Qin Men said was true, he was speechless for a moment.

"Are you wondering why I know so much?" Qin Men asked with a smile, then answered himself, "Because she used the same line to trap me back then."

"She initially claimed to have a mental illness and that she would only be happy with me, so she hoped I would agree to date her. And I did." Qin Men looked at Jin You'an's face and said, "I guess this time she's using her broken leg to gain your sympathy in order to get you to date her."

Jin Youan fell even more silent; Qin Men was right again.

The student cleaning the classroom seemed to have forgotten that they were supposed to be cleaning as well. By now, most of the people in the teaching building had left, and the building was very quiet.

"So what exactly did she do to make you choose to break up with her and not want to see her again?" Jin Youan finally managed to squeeze out this question.

“Txc. Qingyou.” Qin Men suddenly uttered this word.

"What?" Jin Youan didn't hear clearly.

Qin Men looked up at the clock in the classroom. They had already been delayed for a long time. If they waited any longer, Jiang Qiuyue would probably get impatient.

Qin Men took out his phone, opened the short video app with the camera, and entered Txc.Qingyou in the search bar.

A username popped up, and when Qinmen clicked on it, the first video that appeared was Luo Yingying's selfie.

Jin Youan stared at the account in silence—it was different from the video account Luo Yingying had shown him; this must be Luo Yunyun's alternate account.

"Go back and see for yourself, I have an appointment," Qin Men said with a smile. "If you have any questions for me, I suggest you come find me next time when we're in the same classroom."

After saying that, Qin Men flipped over the table and walked out of the classroom.

As Qin Men went downstairs, he saw Jiang Qiuyue, who had been looking around the entrance of the teaching building.

Qin Men waved his hand and called out, "Qiu Yue!"

Jiang Qiuyue heard Qin Men's voice and looked in the direction from which the voice came, only to be suddenly pulled into someone's arms.

"Let's go eat." Qin Men leaned lazily against Jiang Qiuyue and said, "Can you give me a ride on your bicycle?"

"I can't climb it," Jiang Qiuyue said helplessly.

"Okay." Qin Men immediately straightened up, unlocked the bicycle, sat on the bicycle seat, and patted the back seat, gesturing for Jiang Qiuyue to sit on it.

Jin Youan stood silently by the window watching Qin Men drive away with her friend before turning around and going to find Luo Yingying in her classroom.

Because she had brought an extra person, the bicycle was moving a bit slowly, but Qin Men wasn't worried at all. She didn't seem to realize that all the cafeterias would be packed with people at lunchtime. She leisurely asked Jiang Qiuyue, "What do you want to eat? Point me in the right direction. Anyway, we don't have classes in the first two periods this afternoon."

"Hmm? I said yesterday that we'd eat mala tang (spicy hot pot)." Jiang Qiuyue hugged Qin Men's waist, seemingly a little dissatisfied.

"I'm just confirming again. Didn't you dislike spicy hot pot before? You said the flavor was too strong." Qin Men released one hand and scratched his head.

"I suddenly felt like trying something different today. Besides, there are also spicy hot pots that aren't too flavorful." Jiang Qiuyue pointed in a direction and said, "Let's ride that way."

"Okay," Qin Men said, then turned his bicycle around and rode off in the direction Jiang Qiuyue pointed.

Jiang Qiuyue turned her head and gave the boy crouching in the grass a cold, sidelong glance.

Gu Changlin realized he had been discovered and was initially startled, but then he thought he didn't need to be afraid of the girl. So, ignoring the girl on the back of the bicycle glaring at him, who was practically spitting fire, he continued following Qin Men.

Qin Men had actually seen Gu Changlin a while ago, but she didn't say anything. She just pedaled her bicycle a little faster.

The thumb camera won't arrive for a few more days, so it's best not to confront him directly. Qin Men thought.

After following for a while, Gu Changlin wondered if he had been squatting in the bushes for too long and was hallucinating.

Why does it seem like Qin Men's bicycle is getting faster and faster as he pedals?

Soon, Gu Changlin realized that this was not an illusion; the Qin Clan was moving away from him at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Sitting on the back of the bicycle, Jiang Qiuyue could feel Qin Men pedaling much faster—she knew Qin Men had also seen the boy, so she hugged Qin Men's waist tightly to prevent herself from falling off.

Finally, after several turns, Gu Changlin was defeated—two legs can't outrun two wheels after all.

Qin Men successfully shook off Gu Changlin and even had a free hand to pat Jiang Qiuyue's head: "Weren't you scared?"

Jiang Qiuyue slapped Qin Men's hand away and said irritably, "Just ride your bike properly."

"Hey~"

We finally arrived at the cafeteria.

The cafeteria was crowded. Jin Youan finally found a seat, helped Luo Yingying sit down, and then put his bag on the seat next to Luo Yingying.

After asking Luo Yingying what she wanted to eat, Jin Youan went to get the food.

While waiting in line, Jin Youan couldn't help but think of what Qin Men had told her before.

And that account... Jin Youan inexplicably took out his phone, clicked on the video-watching app with the camera, and searched for Luo Yingying's alternate account.

Txc.Qingyou has over 500 videos. Jin Youan randomly clicked on one and watched the content, only to feel uncomfortable all over.

The voice inside was indeed Luo Yingying's voice, and few of the things she said were pleasant to hear.

Jin Youan grew increasingly disheartened as she listened. She suddenly realized that Luo Yingying had two faces: one in person and one online.

Luo Yingying's online persona is a collection of all her malice.

Jin Youan turned off the sound and watched three or four videos in a row. Later, he couldn't watch anymore, so he turned off the phone screen and put it back in his pocket.

Maybe she used to be like this. Jin Youan thought to himself, maybe I can change her.

After waiting a while longer, the person in front finally took a few steps forward.

After waiting in line for a long time, Qin Men finally got to the place where they could eat mala tang (a spicy hot pot dish). She and Jiang Qiuyue each got a bowl of mala tang.

After putting their bags away, the two immediately ran back to their seats and waited for the hot pot to cook.

After chatting for a while, Jiang Qiuyue finally couldn't help but express her concern: "Qin Men, that boy..."

"I know, I saw it," Qin Men replied. "I was riding so fast just now to shake her off, I know you noticed."

"Should we go and tell the teacher?" Jiang Qiuyue asked.

“No rush,” Qin Men said. “My thumb camera will arrive in a few days, and I can record evidence of him stalking me.”

"And ah..."

Qin Men pulled a small wooden sword from his pocket and said, "I still have something to defend myself with. Look, I bought it at the scenic spot last time. Doesn't it look impressive?"

As he spoke, Qin Men gently waved the small wooden sword twice in the air, causing the tassel at the bottom of the sword to sway.

Jiang Qiuyue saw it and couldn't help but laugh.

Qin Men laughed even harder, put the little wooden sword away, and said, "So, you don't need to worry too much about me. I've trained myself. Maybe I can even beat that boy!"

"Hey, what's with that expression?" Qin Men said, noticing Jiang Qiuyue's narrowed eyes. "Are you looking down on me?"

“Yeah, so confident all the time.” Jiang Qiuyue had barely finished speaking when Qin Men grabbed her left cheek.

"Don't look down on me," Qin Men said with a smile.

When Qin Men went to pick up his hot pot, his number was called, and he unexpectedly saw two girls who had been kissing in the library earlier.

The two people now seemed like complete strangers, standing about ten feet apart.

Oh dear, they broke up? Qin Men thought to himself.

Qin Men walked to the hot pot area and found three plates of hot pot on the table. Two of the plates looked similar in color. Qin Men frowned, but finally recognized his own by the two large lettuce leaves he had put in it.

Qin Men picked up two bowls of spicy hot pot and was about to leave when he saw the girl in the pink dress from a few days ago come over to get her own spicy hot pot.

Qin Men thought for a moment and realized that he had seen her on the confession wall yesterday; her name seemed to be Chen Weiran.
