After Becoming the Love-Brained Female Lead’s Best Friend - Chapter 24

“Is it normal to dream about almost kissing someone of the same sex?”

—Normal. I’ve even dreamed several times about doing it with my best friend.

—The OP is normal. As for the first comment, emmmmm.

—Normal. OP, don’t overthink it.

…

After Fang Shu finished reading the comments below, she glanced at Ye Wanyin. Ye Wanyin had just finished organizing a set of notes and pushed them in front of Fang Shu. “See if you can do these.”

Fang Shu: “…”

She was still straight.

On Wednesday, the homeroom teacher announced that the monthly exam would be held early at the end of the month, and that the sports meet would be held next Friday after the monthly exam.

In preparation for the monthly exam at the end of the month, the number of questions Ye Wanyin prepared for Fang Shu had clearly increased these past few days. At first, it was still fine, but before two days had passed, Fang Shu gave up.

She pushed the homework back. “Too much. I can’t finish it.”

With this much homework, she already felt like her brain cells had begun dying and no longer wanted to regenerate.

Ye Wanyin looked at Fang Shu lying on the desk, clearly wilted beyond belief, and finally realized that she had been too impatient.

The monthly exam announcement had reminded her that the system’s energy should be linked to Fang Shu’s grades. If she wanted to bring the system out, the best method was to raise Fang Shu’s grades as quickly as possible.

But clearly, she had put too much pressure on Fang Shu.

Ye Wanyin forced down her somewhat anxious mood and said to Fang Shu, “Sorry. I should have considered your situation more.”

Fang Shu snorted. The result of two days of high pressure was that she gave up for an entire afternoon.

By the weekend, Ye Wanyin restored Fang Shu’s previous pace, and only then did Fang Shu slowly continue studying.

The exam was on Monday.

This time, Ye Wanyin parachuted into the first seat in Class One. Nearby were basically students from the top class, Class Three. Sitting behind her was the second-ranked student in the grade, who was now frantically memorizing ancient poems and texts while there was still time before the exam began.

Ye Wanyin sent Fang Shu a message: “Did you remember any of the ancient poems?”

Fang Shu replied instantly: “I don’t want those points.”

Ye Wanyin: “…”

She now knew why Fang Shu’s Chinese score could not go up.

The two days of exams quickly ended. In order to accommodate everyone’s enthusiasm for the sports meet, the school did not release the results early this time, and the teachers also did not need to work overtime correcting papers.

And so, before the results came out, the students in class lived as if they were having a carnival before the end of the world. The sports committee member stood on the podium, holding the sign-up list and shouting loudly for people to register. After seeing that no one paid attention to him, he began going seat by seat and forcefully pressing people’s paws down to sign up.

The girls had it a little better. He was only embarrassed enough to pester a few he had slightly better relationships with. Among the boys, however, there was no need to be polite. Everyone was brothers, so he directly wrote their names down for them. No thanks needed.

For a while, the classroom was full of boys chasing each other around in chaos.

Fang Shu’s seat was near the aisle, and she was innocently affected several times. After being interrupted from reading comics for the fourth time, she finally could not take it anymore. She stood directly in the aisle and blocked the person running over completely.

Coincidentally, the person she blocked was Li Ming. He slammed on the brakes and nearly knelt in front of her. Li Ming was still avoiding the sports committee member and was so anxious he wanted Fang Shu to move aside.

Fang Shu did not move.

Li Ming nearly called her “great-aunt.” “Sister Fang, please move aside first! That idiot Zhou Le is about to catch up!”

Zhou Le was their class’s sports committee member. Usually, he was a quiet young man, but whenever the sports meet came around, he seemed to be injected with stimulants and ran around catching people everywhere.

Fang Shu pointed at her desk, which had been knocked crooked for the third time. “If you want to run, run outside.”

Li Ming nodded repeatedly, then looked at Fang Shu pitifully, hoping she would at least let him pass so he could get out from the front.

Fang Shu pointed toward the back door, showing not the slightest intention of letting him pass.

The sports committee member was blocking the back door.

Li Ming gritted his teeth. Fine, he would risk it!

Only after Fang Shu saw that they had finally moved the battlefield elsewhere did she return to her seat, her anger somewhat appeased.

Ye Wanyin was working on questions. These past few days, she had been focused on tutoring Fang Shu, so she had fallen a little behind on her own college entrance exam questions. Now, while the exam was over, the results had not come out yet, and the system had no movement, Fang Shu could rest for a while, and Ye Wanyin could also make up for her own lessons.

Not long after she started, a girl stood in front of her seat. At first, Ye Wanyin did not realize the girl had come to find her. After all, the exam was over, and the sports meet was coming up next. Everyone was anxious about the sports meet, so very few people had come to find her these past two days.

It was not until the other girl knocked on her desk a few times that she raised her head. The girl was not very familiar with Ye Wanyin and usually did not ask many questions either, so her expression looked slightly reserved. “Classmate, can you participate in the sports meet? Our class doesn’t have anyone for the girls’ 400 meters and 800 meters.”

Ye Wanyin: …Ah, this.

Seeing that Ye Wanyin did not directly refuse, the other girl pressed on. “There aren’t many girls in our class. After you sign up, even walking the whole distance is fine.”

The girl looked at Ye Wanyin with an earnest gaze.

Ye Wanyin: “…”

Since she had already said it like that, Ye Wanyin nodded.

The other girl immediately became happy and had her sign. After Ye Wanyin finished signing, the girl’s gaze locked onto Fang Shu beside her. “Sister Fang~~”

Fang Shu thought she had misheard. After taking a moment to recover, she continued doing her own thing as if nothing had happened.

She tried hard to endure for a bit, then dry-heaved.

However, the girl in front of her was not discouraged at all and continued pestering Fang Shu. “Can I sign you up for the 400 meters? You don’t need to run. Just walk to the finish.”

Fang Shu’s face was wooden. “I won’t.”

After grinding away for several minutes and realizing Fang Shu was still iron-hearted, the girl could only leave regretfully.

Fang Shu looked at Ye Wanyin. “Can you run 800 meters?”

Ye Wanyin shook her head and hesitated. “Didn’t she say I don’t need to run?”

Fang Shu looked at her with a slightly subtle expression, then nodded. “Mm. You don’t need to run.”

Ye Wanyin: “…”

Why did it feel like something was not quite right?

The next day, as soon as Ye Wanyin woke up in the morning, she felt that something was wrong. She lifted the blanket and discovered that her period had come.

Then she discovered an awkward problem. The sanitary pads she had bought last time had already been used up.

When Fang Shu opened the door, she was still a little dazed. Her eyes were so sleepy they could barely open, and her voice was slightly hoarse so early in the morning. “Is it already six-thirty?”

Ye Wanyin said with some difficulty, “No… It’s just that my period came. Do you have any extra sanitary pads?”

Hearing the first sentence, Fang Shu nearly wanted to raise her middle finger at her. Only after hearing the second did she somewhat understand and move aside. “They’re in the drawer of the bedside table. Find them yourself. I’m going back to sleep.”

Ye Wanyin nodded at her. Then she saw Fang Shu walk a few steps to the bed and directly throw herself onto it. Not long after, she fell asleep again.

Fang Shu was only wearing a thin nightdress, her slender white arms and calves all exposed.

Although it was almost June, the temperature still had not truly risen. Every day, it changed unpredictably with an attitude that made people impossible to understand.

Ye Wanyin had a habit of opening the window at night, so as soon as she woke up in the morning, she had felt the chill.

She pulled the blanket over, tucked Fang Shu’s whole body into it, and only then began looking for the sanitary pads in the drawer.
