Chapter 4 Chapter 3 Four Handsome Four Beauties

  "Yīng Bīng, congratulations to you, you've become the class monitor again." I said to her. At this moment, we were enjoying our lunch on a stone bench in the campus garden path. The morning classes had unknowingly come to an end like that. Thinking of the embarrassing scene from this morning, I really wanted to leave there as soon as possible.

  "Right, Yu Bing, congratulations!" Wei Er also congratulated Yu Bing.

  "Thanks." Zheng Yubing had an indifferent expression, lowering her head to eat her bento.

  Zheng Yubing's grades are very good, from elementary school to now she has always been the class monitor, many people are curious, how can someone with such good grades like Zheng Yubing be so close to Lin Wei'er and me who have bad grades? Hehe, actually I'm not very clear about it either, in short, the three of us are really good friends.

  "By the way, Yubing, where are you working now?" Wei'er asked while eating. Zheng Yubing has been working part-time since junior high school, and her grades are still so good, I really don't know how she does it, thinking of this, I sent a big mouthful of rice into my mouth.

  Now working in a flower shop called 'Huan'.

  "'Illusion'? What a strange name." I looked at Yīng Bīng with curiosity.

  "Yeah, it's because it's weird, so it attracts a lot of curious people."

  "Take me with you after school, okay?" I said, tugging on Yīng Bīng's sleeve.

  "Missy, that's not a place for you to play."

  "I know, take me to see it, I also want to know what your workplace is like. You've never taken me there before." I said with a pitiful expression.

  "Yes, yes, take me too." Vi also chimed in with me.

  "But no..." Just as Yu Bing's words were cut off halfway, a girl let out a loud shriek not far from us.

  "Ah......, it's Ou Yang Luo and Yang Zhen Yu ah, they're so handsome!" The girl exclaimed with hearts in her eyes.

  "Yes, yes, but I still like Ou Yang Luo better. He was just looking at me, oh my god... hurry up and hold me." Another girl said even more exaggeratedly. They really have a problem, someone like Ou Yang Luo is actually liked by people. The world is really chaotic!

  Just then, those two familiar people had just walked past the girls. I quickly lowered my head and covered my face with my hand, so I shouldn't be seen now. After a while, I peeked through my fingers to see if they had left. They had already passed in front of us.

  "Phew..." I let out a sigh of relief. I didn't want to be seen by that devil.

  But just as I was watching their receding backs, Ouyang Luo suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around to stare at me with a blank expression. As if I had seen a ghost, I turned my head to the side again. Yu Bing seemed to have noticed something was off about me too, and asked "What's wrong?"

  "It's nothing."

  Yang Zhenyu might have seen me too. He stood still and waved at me: "Hi, Xiao Yue." He smiled charmingly at me.

  "Hi, what a coincidence!" I awkwardly greeted him. Looking at the person next to him, our eyes met, and I quickly shifted my gaze elsewhere.

  "Look, who is that girl? Why is Ou Wangzi talking to her?" It's one of those girls from just now.

  "Right, what's their relationship?" Don't get us wrong, we're just friends.

  "Ugh... My Ouji-sama!" What's with this, it's like you're aiming a gun at me.

  "Let's go," he said.

  "Um, then we'll go first, Little Yue, goodbye." Yang Zhenyu said and turned around to leave with Ouyang Luo.

  "Hurry up, what's your relationship with them? I didn't expect it, Ouyang Yue, you actually know two of the four school heartthrobs. Quick, say it! If not, humph... be careful or I'll...". Wei'er grabbed my clothes and interrogated me like a police officer questioning a suspect. Hmm... why did I compare myself to a 'suspect', I'm not one after all.

  "Uh... Yīng Bīng, take a look at Wei Er, she's so fierce!" I put on a pitiful expression and sent out an SOS signal to Yīng Bīng.

  "Must make it clear." Yīng Bīng completely ignored the distress signal I sent out. Her eyes stared at me as she spoke.

  "It's actually...not what you guys think it is." Looks like I have no choice but to clarify.

  "What's going on? Don't tell me you're just ordinary friends. Look at the way Ouyang Luo looked at you just now. Your relationship is not simple." Wei'er asked with a look of determination to get to the bottom of things, staring at me.

  "Actually... Ou Yang Luo is my brother, and as for Yang Zhen Yu, he often came to our house to play when we were young, he and Ou Yang Luo are good friends." I explained hastily.

  "Ouyang Luo is your brother? How is that possible, and besides, I've never heard you mention him before?" Viya grabbed my clothes, with an 'I-have-the-evidence' expression staring at me dead on, as if she was afraid I'd run away.

  "You didn't even ask me, why am I telling you these boring things. Yu Bing..." once again sending out a distress signal to her.

  "Uh, they both have the surname Ouyang, she shouldn't be cheating us. Wei'er, you can let go first." Yu Bing, you're really great. I'm touched.

  Ying Yu said that Wei Er indeed let go, but still wouldn't give up and continued to say: "Are you two really siblings? I've only heard that he has a twin sister who is one of the top 4 beauties in our school, named Ouyang Ye. Don't tell me she's your sister, you two don't look alike at all." Many people have said since we were young that the three of us look very different, and Wei Er saying this didn't make me feel anything out of the ordinary.

  "Is it true? Do you want me to show you my family's household registration book or something?" Wei Er, why do you have to ask so thoroughly?

  "No need for a household registration book, haha. Just bring me to your home and take a look another day." Oh my god, is she joking? If Ou Yang Luo finds out, I'll be dead meat, I don't want to get into an argument with him because I'll definitely end up losing. Looks like I need to think of a plan.

  "That... Oh, right, I have something to ask you, what did you just say about 'four handsome and four beauties'? I heard someone else talking about it this morning too. Is 'four handsome and four beauties' a name or a code?" A flash of insight, diverting the conversation, finally understanding what 'a narrow escape' means. But I really do want to know what they meant by 'four handsome and four beauties'."

  "My god, Ouyang Yue, you don't even know the Four Greats and the Four Beauties, you're simply a shame to Jialin High School." Wei'er looked at me with disdain, as if she knew all about this. Next to us, Yubing seemed to be treating us like we were transparent, quietly reading her book after finishing her snack. This Yubing, always so diligent wherever she goes.

  "Then you tell me and see." To avoid her asking me to take her home, it's still better for me to pretend to be very interested.

  "Okay, let me tell you about the four school idols. They're all super popular guys! The first one is Ou Yang Luo. You said he's your brother? I didn't acknowledge that! He's really handsome to the point of being unreasonable. Ou Yang Luo, male, 17 years old, born on September 5th, height 182cm, weight 52kg, likes basketball and piano. His favorite colors are black and white, and he loves drinking caramel macchiatos. He likes girls with long hair, but so far, I haven't heard of him dating anyone. As for his family background, his dad is one of our school's board members!"

  Good grief, Wei Er said all that in one breath! Is she reciting from memory or something? Even checking someone's household registration wouldn't require being this thorough!

  I stared at Wei Er with my mouth agape, asking in surprise: "How do you know so clearly?" As Ou Yang Luo's sister, I didn't even know his height, weight, or hobbies. It seems that as a sister, I'm quite a failure.

  "This doesn't count for anything, I had already found out everything on the school's BBS website before coming to Jialin. And if you randomly ask a girl at school about the Four Greats and the Four Beauties, they'll give more detailed answers than me."

  "But this is really an exaggeration."

  "It's just what you think, okay? Next, let me tell you about the other three. The second is the president of the news agency - Gu Yue Xuan, I heard he's a very mysterious person. The third is the new student union president - Yang Zhen Yu, who was the one who greeted you earlier. The fourth is the former student union president - Shu Yi, but he has already graduated, so the position of fourth is currently vacant."

  "So what if it's empty?"

  Wei'er patted my head: "You're silly, of course we'll choose another one. This year's competition will be fierce though, because everyone thinks our classmate Shan Ruofeng will win. He's your Prince Charming!"

  "Prince Charming? No... it's not that, you're saying Shan Ruofeng is very likely to be chosen as one of the 4 most handsome?" Actually, someone as handsome as Shan Ruofeng being chosen isn't strange at all.

  "Yes, it's being discussed very heatedly on the school forum."

  "Then who is Si Mei?"

  "It seems you're still quite interested, so let me tell you then." Wei'er said with a 'know-it-all' expression. "The first of the four beauties is Ouyang Ye, who's not only beautiful but also excellent in her studies and is even the president of the dance club. She and Ouyang Luo are twins, our school's publicly acknowledged beauty and handsome boy!"

  It's not strange at all that Yezi is the first of the four beauties to me, she has been excellent since childhood. As for Ou Yang Luo, he is obviously very demonic, why are those girls so infatuated with him? Wait until one day they know his true nature, haha, I don't know how much regret they will have then.

  "And then there's the second beauty, she's the vice president of the student council - Bai Mengxi, the third beauty is the deputy director of the news agency - Zhao Yinniang, and the fourth beauty is also from the news agency, named Shi Yujia. I heard her dad is a triad boss in Haichuan City and has a lot of influence."

  "Oh, I see, ah, why didn't you mention their height, weight, and hobbies?"

  Wei'er rolled her eyes at me, "They're girls, why would I bother to remember those things about them? Besides, girls only care about handsome guys."

  She suddenly leaned her face close to me and said with a serious expression: "Do you really want to know? Or are you... GAY?"

  "Shoo shoo shoo, what nonsense are you talking about?" Honestly, I was just curious and asked, no need to be called GAY.

  "Hahahaha... I was just kidding you, look at how anxious you are! Hahahahaha..." Viola seemed to have heard some super funny joke and couldn't stop laughing.

  "Alright, stop laughing." I said irritably to Viola.

  Yi Bing, who was reading a book on the side, suddenly stood up and said to us: "Alright, stop messing around, we should head back to class now, let's go."

  "There's still some time before class, let's sit for a while longer. Oh right, Yuer, you haven't made it clear what your relationship with Ouyang Luo is, hurry up and tell me." Wei'er said, pulling on my hand.

  She's not giving up yet, thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy. "Hehe, Yubing, you're right, we need to go to class, let's go." After finishing speaking, I pulled Yubing's hand and ran away, without caring about Wei'er chasing after us and shouting something.
