Chapter 9: Mental Illness Encountered on Joyful Occasions

  Zhou Yun left the classroom and came to the flower pool at the school gate. In the past, he would wait for Xu Xuan here, usually without anyone approaching. Now that there were still ten minutes before school was dismissed, Zhou Yun thought that the goddess wouldn't leave early, so he squatted alone beside the flower bed, thinking about what had happened today.

  By coincidence, he got three wonderful candies from a strange old man who sells sugar. After eating them, his body seemed to have undergone a magical change. It can make people's minds clear and easy to learn anything. Could it be that he suddenly became the legendary genius as Xu Caiyue said? That's too ridiculous...

  Zhou Yun felt that the candy should have other effects, and there seemed to be a force in her body, constantly surging out...

  If it's really like that, can I be as happy as a pig? The sun rises in the east, and only I am invincible? Even if it's a noble and elegant beauty like Xu Xuan, would she willingly become my little wife?

  If everything is true, then the world is really too good...

  "Heh heh...... oh heh heh heh......" Zhou Yun sank into thought in the YY, unknowingly letting out a strange laugh.

  "Him again? He's standing there again. What's with that smile? Like a fool... Haha." Xu Xuan had just stepped out of the school gate when she ran into Zhou Yun, who was staring off into space like an idiot. Thinking back to the prank at noon, she probably thought it was funny, so she hopped over like a little white rabbit...

  "You're drooling." A pleasant voice sounded beside him, instantly startling Zhou Yun out of his reverie.

  "Ah!" Zhou Yun subconsciously wiped his mouth corner. No saliva?

  He found out he was deceived, so he quickly turned around to see which bastard dared to mess with him in broad daylight. But as soon as he looked, Zhou Yun's tongue became a egg roll: "Shh... shh shh shh... shh shh..."

  It turned out that the person who suddenly disturbed Zhou Yun was Xu Xuan, the student representative who had been on his mind and made him lose sleep. The young man had just thought about how to win over the beauty, but the beauty appeared right in front of him. Although his face was thicker than armor, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

  Xu Xuanfang had just finished her physical education class, so she was dismissed early. At this time, she saw Zhou Yun with a worried face and asked in confusion: "Huh? Do you want to go to the bathroom? Just walk straight through the school gate and turn left. Aren't you a student at our school?"

  Zhou Yun took a deep breath, calming his racing heart, and then immediately picked up his backpack and did something that Xu Xuan didn't expect. He quickly flipped out a notebook and pen, holding them up with both hands in respect: "Please sign an autograph for me!"

  "Hmph..." Zhou Yun's strange movements suddenly made Xu Xuan laugh. Looking at his silly expression, the girl found it hilarious from the bottom of her heart.

  She wasn't a celebrity or a star, what's the point of asking her for an autograph? Perhaps it was just for fun, Xun also solemnly accepted the paper and pen, and then, suppressing her smile, she began to scribble on the notebook.

  "Here." About a minute later, Xu Xuan returned the notebook. When Zhou Yun excitedly took it over to look, he found that this signature was not quite like what he had imagined.

  The notebook had no words on it, but only a drawing of an extraterrestrial creature that looked like both a mouse and a dog. Next to the creature was a small arrow, and following the direction of the arrow, Zhou Yun suddenly discovered his own signature on the notebook. It turned out that the beauty thought it was funny and had teased him for a while.

  Zhou Yun stared blankly at the signature, and Xu Xuan clapped her hands in front of him, saying: "So you're Zhou Yun, I'm Xu Xuan, nice to meet you! Little Cloud, do you come here every day after school just to look at pretty girls?"

  "Oh! Yes! Ah! No!" The awakened Zhou Yun's subconscious replied.

  Everything that happened today was really unbelievable, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that this was the most inexplicable day of Zhou Yun's life. Not only did he acquire mysterious powers, but he was also approached by his long-time secret crush. Was he dreaming or what...

  "Isn't it?" Xǔ Xuān saw Zhōu Yún nodding and shaking his head, and asked slyly. "Then what does Classmate Zhōu do here every day after school?"

  What is Zhou Yun doing here? Would Xu Xuan not know? The little girl was obviously asking with ulterior motives. Unfortunately, her question fell on deaf ears as Zhou Yun didn't hear it at all...

  Doubting whether she was dreaming or not, Zhou Yun stupidly started self-mutilation in front of Xu Xuan. The beauty saw it and felt confused, tilting her small head, unable to understand what Zhou Yun was thinking.

  "Ouch! Ahh!" Zhou Yun self-abused for a while, as if waking up from a dream. Then he stared at Xu Xuan with wide eyes: "...... What did you just say?"

  Zhou Yun had used a lot of force earlier and now his eyes were welling up with tears from the pain.

  "Why are you..." Xu Xuan didn't finish her sentence, but instead made a cute gesture on her face, implying to ask Zhou Yun why he pinched his own cheeks.

  Zhou Yun awkwardly scratched his butt with his hand and then said in a low voice, "You're looking for me to talk, I thought I was dreaming."

  "So you're pinching yourself?" Xǔ Xuān said with a smile, and Zhōu Yún also honestly nodded.

  Because Zhou Yun often secretly looked at her at the school gate, Xu Xuan also slightly inquired about his news while chatting with friends. From the mouths of many people, it was learned that Zhou Yun was originally a big bad guy in the school. In junior high school, he liked to cause trouble and fight, and even got a nickname called Whirlwind, which made people afraid when they saw him.

  But now it seems, the name doesn't quite match the reality. Xu Xuanfei didn't find Zhou Yun scary at all, but rather thought he was silly. She sized him up for a good while and couldn't connect him with being a bad person at all. It's really that hearing about someone is not as good as meeting them, and meeting them is not as good as hearing about them.

  However, Xu Xuan didn't dislike the current Zhou Yun. At least he wasn't like those pursuers in the past who would show off their abilities in front of her just because they had a little talent. But when real trouble came, they became soft and fled faster than anyone else. Compared to them, Zhou Yun, the youth who had been quietly waiting for her since high school, was obviously more reassuring.

  Xu Xuan saw that Zhou Yunlian didn't even dare to look at her, so she decided to tease this silly little tomboy who was known as the school's number one tyrant.

  Then, Xu Xuan immediately hugged her arms, raised an eyebrow, and pouted her small mouth, pretending to be angry: "I asked you just now! What are you doing here every day after school? Are you always absent-minded, thinking about unhealthy things?"

  Zhou Yun saw his heartthrob goddess getting angry, and he was suddenly scared to death, foolishly denying: "Ah? I'm not thinking of anything unhealthy right now!"

  He's just a bit wrong with what he said, isn't it true that you didn't think of it before? Can't be that you'll think of it in a while, right?

  "Not thinking about it now? That's what you'll think later!" Xǔ Xuě was barely holding back a smile, she was secretly pleased to have caught Zhōu Yún off guard.

  "No! Don't make me think about it! I'm just waiting for someone." Zhou Yun said flusteredly.

  He said it as if Xu Xuan was forcing him to think of unhealthy things. In fact, Zhou Yun wanted to say, don't wrong me. But seeing Xu Xuan get angry, he got nervous in his heart, and when he got nervous, he ended up saying "don't force me".

  "Ah... no one forced you, did they?" Xu Xiang smiled with a hint of flirtation: "I wonder which beauty is Little Cloud waiting for? If he says it out loud, maybe I can lend a hand."

  Help? Are you kidding me! That would only make things worse. Clearly knowing that Zhou Yun and the others were waiting for her, she still deliberately asked who Zhou Yun was waiting for, isn't this obviously making things difficult for Xiao Yun?

  "Hmm..." Zhou Yun was stunned, who was he waiting for? Did he need to ask? Wasn't it you?! But he didn't dare say this out loud, fearing that Xu Xuan would never speak to him again if she heard.

  Zhou Yun was relieved in his heart. There were many boys in school who had been alienated after confessing to Xu Xuan. He didn't want to become one of them. Now that he could be friends with Xu Xuan, Zhou Yun was already very satisfied.

  Facing Xu Xuan's question, Zhou Yun was speechless. He couldn't tell Xu Xuan that the person he had been waiting for was actually her. They had only just formally met today, so why would Zhou Yun wait for her? If he said he was waiting for another girl, that wouldn't work either. Wouldn't that be equivalent to giving up on pursuing Xu Xuan? He couldn't confess now, but that didn't mean he never could in the future. Only by taking things one step at a time would he have the chance to capture the beauty's heart.

  Fortunately, just as Zhou Yun was at a loss for what to do, a red sedan came over. From the license plate number, Zhou Yun knew that it was Xu Xuan's dedicated vehicle. In other words, the old butler who had come to welcome Xu Xuan back home had arrived...
