Chapter 15: A Handsome Face Never Speaks Human Language
Chapter 15
Although the class monitor was talking nonsense, he had guessed correctly to some extent about the romantic plot between the male and female leads.
The female protagonist, Liang Rongrong, was brought home by the male lead's father and became an adopted daughter of the Feng family.
Liang Rongrong needed to attend school, and under Feng's Father's arrangements, she entered Qianpu School, becoming a classmate of the male lead.
Shi Li had just entered the grade supervisor's office, which was probably when Feng's Father was handling Liang Rongrong's enrollment procedures.
According to her role as a devoted lover, Shi Li should have approached the two at this moment and asked in a tone reserved for unfaithful lovers, "Who is she?"
Feng Yunhe disliked being close to strangers, even though he had known Shi Li since childhood.
The instant Shi Li approached, he instinctively took a step back, moving closer to Liang Rongrong.
The class monitor's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Was that half-step backward really necessary?
Feng Yunhe, with a cold expression, said, "Who she is is none of your business."
This was the first time Shi Li had seen her since her rebirth, and she couldn't help feeling a sense of pity.
[What a shame, he has such a handsome face, but never says anything pleasant]

Every time the male lead opened his mouth, Shi Li couldn't help but want to manually mute him.
But this was just a thought.
The class monitor was a very responsible person, like a mother hen protecting her chicks, treating everyone in the class with care.
How could he tolerate one of his classmates being bullied?
"Feng, Shi Li is just concerned about you. Isn't it a bit harsh to treat her like this?"
Then, the brave class monitor who stood up for his classmate was completely ignored by the cool and aloof male lead.
Feng Yunhe walked forward a bit, and noticing that Liang Rongrong hadn't followed, he stopped and said impatiently, "Keep up."
Shi Li was long accustomed to Feng Yunhe's rudeness.
But the class monitor had tried to stand up for her, only to be treated this way by Feng Yunhe. Shi Li comforted him, saying, "He's always like this. Don't take it personally."
However, these words, when heard by the class monitor, further confirmed his belief that Shi Li was deeply in love.
The girl's pleasant voice reached both their ears, "Brother, does that girl like you?"
The class monitor didn't know that they were actually adopted siblings, and thought this girl was being catty, deliberately saying such things to provoke Shi Li.
He nearly turned around to confront Liang Rongrong, wanting to ask if there was something wrong with her.
She was already the victor, did she need to show off everywhere?
The class monitor's combat effectiveness was zero, but he remembered the slight he had suffered from Feng Yunhe.
In a fit of anger, he went back and shared the afternoon's events in the class group chat.
However, he didn't mention being ignored, only saying that Feng Yunhe seemed very close to another female student, breaking Shi Li's heart.
The well-informed students quickly found out that this person was a transfer student from Class 3, brought into the class by Feng Yunhe. No one knew what their relationship was, but the girl always called Feng Yunhe "brother."
Feng Yunhe had many fangirls in the class, and Liang Rongrong's apparent closeness to him was enough to make all the girls who admired Feng Yunhe target her.
At this point, no one knew about their adopted sibling relationship, and Liang Rongrong faced a lot of hostility in the class.
Shortly after Liang Rongrong entered the new school, the whole school also began the second monthly exam of this semester.
The monthly exam lasted for two days, Thursday and Friday. Most people didn't like exams.
However, thinking that after the monthly exam, it would be the weekend and they could rest for two days, the monthly exam didn't seem so unbearable.
But for Shi Li, after the monthly exam ended, she still had to participate in a competition over the weekend.
Three consecutive days of exams were a bit painful.
The competition venue was in the same city, but arranged at another middle school.
At half past eleven in the morning, after finishing the first session and coming out of the exam room, Shi Li called Shen Qinglin, "Have you finished your exam? Let's have lunch together, we can also discuss this morning's questions."
"I'm sorry, I'm not available for lunch."
In her previous life, when Shi Li participated in competitions, she always had lunch and dinner with her schoolmates.
She had participated in many competitions with Shen Qinglin before, and naturally, they had eaten together many times.
Being rejected by Shen Qinglin this time, Shi Li felt a slight confusion in her heart.
There were always many good small restaurants near the school. Shi Li randomly chose one with decent taste and went in to grab a quick bite.
The second exam was at three in the afternoon. The most comfortable option would be to find a nearby hotel to take a nap, ensuring she would be fully alert for the afternoon exam.
However, thinking of Shen Qinglin, whose family's financial situation was average, Shi Li hadn't booked a hotel in advance, as it would definitely be a burden for his family.
As for booking a hotel now or calling a driver to take her home for a nap, it was all too troublesome.
Shi Li might as well use this time to find a quiet place nearby to read.
As the exam time approached, the alarm she had set earlier went off, reminding Shi Li that she should go to the exam room.
While the invigilator was checking her student ID and admission ticket, Shi Li inadvertently looked back and saw a familiar figure passing through the corridor.
It seemed to be Liang Rongrong?
Immediately, Shi Li dismissed this guess. This physics competition was organized by school, and Qianpu School only had two spots - one for her and one for Shen Qinglin.
But it could be a relative of Liang Rongrong.
As the bell for the exam rang, Shi Li pushed aside these irrelevant thoughts in her mind and began to focus on answering the questions.
An exam paper she had done before, though highly difficult, posed no challenge for her now.
