Chapter 24 The Swallow That Couldn't Be Caught

Upon seeing Yu Baiwei approaching gracefully, Xue Yan and Ren Yunpeng were instantly captivated, their hearts skipping a beat.

The land of abundance, Sichuan, has always been known for its beautiful women. However, in reality, the two of them had never seen a girl as beautiful as her before.

Whether it's facial features, figure, looks, or temperament, there's nothing about her that's imperfect, as if it were a gift from the Creator.

Ren Yunpeng began to speculate: "Yanzi, could she be Xia Ning, the one you and Zeng Cheng were just talking about?"

As Xue Yan just mentioned, Xia Ning is the most beautiful girl at Dezhou No. 1 High School.

The beautiful woman approaching them was about the same age as them.

Xue Yan shook her head: "Uh, she's not Xia Ning..."

Xia Ning is very beautiful.

Compared to the person in front of him, he is visibly inferior.

Even Xia Ning's most prized features weren't as exquisite as this girl's.

They have similar body types, but their temperaments are quite different.

In summary, that's at least a significant difference.

Xue Yan transferred schools in her second year of high school, so of course she didn't know Yu Baiwei.

However, she had heard of Yu Meiren's reputation—from what others had told her.

Xue Yan had a vague guess and looked at Zeng Cheng: "Could she be Yu Baiwei? That stunning beauty who transferred from Shanghai in our senior year of high school..."

Zeng Cheng nodded: "Who else could it be but her?"

Xue Yan couldn't help but exclaim, "She's absolutely stunning! No wonder she surpassed Xia Ning as soon as she transferred here and became the undisputed school beauty of Dezhou No. 1 High School. I heard her family is also very wealthy, and she's always chauffeured to and from school in luxury cars?"

Zeng Cheng nodded again: "The ultimate luxury car, the Rolls-Royce Phantom."

Judging from this, Yu Baiwei is also learning to drive here. Should I go and strike up a conversation with her? But she seems so aloof; she probably won't even acknowledge me.

As Xue Yan was pondering this, she noticed that Yu Baiwei was walking in this direction.

I couldn't help but feel nervous, my whole body tensed up, and even my breathing became cautious.

This is the true value of a femme fatale – she can charm both men and women.

If Xue Yan was so nervous, Ren Yunpeng was even more so; his palms were instantly covered in sweat.

A girl like her is like a goddess from heaven; even speaking to her would be a great desecration, wouldn't it?

At this moment, Yu Baiwei was holding a Häagen-Dazs ice cream cone in her hand, licking it as she walked, her delicate tongue appearing and disappearing intermittently.

Xue Yan and Ren Yunpeng both got caught in the crossfire of this scene.

Zeng Cheng's expression was also a little stunned—tsk tsk tsk, as expected of my good friend, this is too cute.

Yu Baiwei quickly walked to Zeng Cheng's side. Seeing him staring blankly at her, she was initially puzzled. After thinking for two seconds, she thought she had figured it out and handed the half-licked ice cream cone to Zeng Cheng's lips.

"Zeng Cheng, I've told you before, if you want to eat what I'm holding, just say so. Don't keep glaring at me like Dou Dou!"

Seeing the ice cream cone almost touching his mouth, Zeng Cheng chose to refuse.

There were two other people around, and it felt weird to eat an ice cream cone covered in Yu Baiwei's saliva.

Yu Baiwei was a little unhappy, and glared at Zeng Cheng with her eyes wide open, clearly wanting an explanation from him—why she wasn't eating.

Zeng Cheng rolled his eyes: "Yu, it's covered in your saliva!"

Yu Baiwei was even more displeased: "Zeng Cheng, don't you often eat my saliva?"

Zeng Cheng knew, of course, that she was referring to how the two of them often shared food when eating in the cafeteria, but such words could easily be misunderstood.

For example, Xue Yan and Ren Yunpeng's mouths were wide open at that moment.

What the hell!

Zeng Cheng knows Yu Baiwei!

Their relationship even progressed to the point where they would often spit on each other's food!

Need I say more about the relationship between these two?

But—this is neither scientific nor reasonable!

How blind must Yu Baiwei, a girl who radiates light, be to even consider Zeng Cheng?

After the initial shock came embarrassment.

They were just mocking Zeng Cheng, saying he was so ordinary yet dared to dream of winning Xia Ning's heart, but she ended up winning over Yu Baiwei...

At this moment, Yu Baiwei also noticed Xue Yan.

As for Ren Yunpeng, as a man who is simply a man, he is really easy to overlook.

"Zeng Cheng, do you know this short girl?"

No doubt about it, this is how our beautiful Yu usually talks. She'll get straight to the point and won't waste time with fancy tricks.

Xue Yan: "..."

Clearly, Yu Baiwei's straight punch had left him somewhat withdrawn.

Zeng Cheng tried hard to hold back his laughter.

[Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of you, Yu Baiwei, well done!]

Xue Yan's chest heaved with anger, probably about to explode.

Zeng Cheng didn't give her a chance and quickly chimed in, "Cough, I forgot to introduce her to you. Her name is Xue Yan. She was in our class in the first year of high school, but then she transferred schools."

Then he hypocritically criticized Yu Baiwei.

"Yu, it's not right for you to say that. Xue Yan is indeed not tall—especially compared to you—but how could you say that directly? That's so hurtful!"

Yu Baiwei stuck out her tongue, first giving Xue Yan an apologetic look, then asking her only good friend, "Um, Zeng Cheng, what should I say?"

"Of course, it's a euphemistic way of expressing it, for example—" Zeng Cheng said, giving Yu Baiwei an example, "You could say Xue Yan [is not obviously tall]."

Yu Baiwei frowned instantly: "Zeng Cheng, your description is not accurate."

"Is there?"

"Yes," Yu Baiwei said seriously, "[Short] and [not noticeably tall] are not contrapositives; they can directly replace each other. [Not noticeably tall] includes two possibilities—[Short] and [Neither tall nor short]—but Xue Yan is simply [Short]."

The beautiful woman here was not being sarcastic at all; instead, she was seriously discussing something with Zeng Cheng.

That's how academic geniuses are; they easily get hung up on these things.

But Xue Yan thought it was a completely different story—it sounded like the two of them were putting on a show!

I'm so annoyed.

They're about to explode on the spot.

Ren Yunpeng dared not utter a word—he was afraid of being splashed and injured.

Xue Yan is very short compared to Yu Baiwei, but isn't he also very short compared to Zeng Cheng?

Fortunately, it was now Xue Yan's turn to practice driving with Ren Yunpeng.

Xue Yan glared hatefully at the couple and stormed off.

"Swallow, wait for me—"

Ren Yunpeng quickly went after him.

Seeing this scene, Zeng Cheng inexplicably felt like laughing.

Dude, maybe we should just call it a day.

In this world, no one but Er Kang can catch up with Yanzi.

Besides, your name is Yunpeng, so you're even less likely to catch up!

After Xue Yan left, Yu Baiwei felt uneasy and looked at her only good friend: "Zeng Cheng, did I say something wrong just now?"

Zeng Cheng mimicked her speech: "No, not at all."

"Really not?" Yu Baiwei's expression gradually turned to doubt. "Then why did Xue Yan glare at me with those sidelong glances just now?"

"Well," Zeng Cheng stroked his chin, "I'm telling you, don't laugh at her, actually... Xue Yan is cross-eyed."

"How could I laugh at Xue Yan?" Yu Baiwei's empathy was overflowing, and her expression became serious and earnest. "Zeng Cheng, don't you think Xue Yan is pitiful? She's so short, and she has a visual impairment..."
