“What was updated?”
Gu Chen lifted her eyelids.
To say she wasn’t interested at all would be a lie.
This School Beauty Rankings thing was, to put it bluntly, just a database of pretty female classmates compiled by boys with nothing better to do.
“Just take a look. With this ranking update, two freshmen girls made it onto the list.”
“Huh? Let me see.”
So, she clicked open that School Beauty Rankings post on the campus forum.
Sure enough, the second edition was updated.
After scrolling through it, she noticed it was different from last time.
“Holy crap, Chu Xiaomeng is on it too?”
A quick glance revealed that the little sister she had taken under her wing was also on the list, currently ranked tenth.
The description read: Super airhead attribute, gentle and lovely, absolutely a blessing for lolicon fans.
‘These guys are real beasts. Aren’t they just deliberately painting a target on her back?’
She used to get bullied and ostracized by other girls in middle school precisely because she was pretty, had a good figure, and was gentle and well-behaved.
Now she has to face this kind of situation again.
‘Thankfully, I’m around to look out for her now. Otherwise, it probably wouldn’t be much different from the miserable state she was in back in junior high.’
The other new entry was a girl from Class Five of the freshman year.
Ye Xinyan: Talented school belle, skilled in various instruments and singing, elegant demeanor, sweet appearance, fulfills boys’ fantasies about their first love.
“When did another school belle pop up?”
Gu Chen genuinely didn’t know this person and muttered to herself.
However, the post included a video of Ye Xinyan.
It was in a classroom, probably during a music lesson.
She was sitting in front of a piano, wearing a white long dress, her hair as black and straight as a waterfall.
She really did have a goddess-like aura.
“If I could hold you within me, I wouldn’t dare let you see, the tear that hasn’t yet fallen from the corner of my mouth, if this is the final page…”
In the video, Ye Xinyan sang a beautiful song while playing the piano.
Just her voice alone was captivating.
Gu Chen had to admit, this was the kind of school belle who possessed both beauty and talent.
So, she also left a reply in the comments: Take care, Prime Minister!
“So, what do you think, Big Brother? It’s rare to have such a high-quality junior. I almost can’t bear to doujinshi-fy her. Tsk.”
Guo Ming was also full of appreciation.
This kind of thing was just for a quick look.
She didn’t have the mental energy to focus on it much.
Right now, there was still the ticking time bomb of the Dean of Instruction hanging over her head. She really wasn’t in the mood.
“Do fewer of those immoral deeds.”
Gu Chen looked at him with disdain.
After a while, the lunch break finally ended.
The first class in the afternoon was P.E., but Wu Peng had already been arrested, so he definitely wouldn’t be coming.
As per usual, the class would probably be taken over by another teacher.
Before the class bell even rang, the homeroom teacher walked in with brisk steps and greeted everyone.
“Just as I thought.”
It seemed this P.E. class was going to be changed.
Fortunately, it was Li Yanqiu.
At least it would be nice to look at, which was better than a more boring subject.
“Class, the first period this afternoon is P.E. However, Teacher Wu has been dismissed, and the new teacher hasn’t arrived yet. So, I’ll be taking over this class for now.”
No one responded.
They had already guessed as much when they saw her, so they just took out their textbooks, preparing for class to start.
“But then again, having your P.E. class taken over probably doesn’t make you very happy. So, I’ve decided to temporarily act as the P.E. teacher, but on one condition: everyone must change into their gym uniforms!”
Li Yanqiu smiled, deliberately teasing everyone.
“Really!?”
“Awesome! Long live Teacher Li!!”
Hearing that it was still P.E. class and that Li Yanqiu would be in charge, everyone couldn’t help but cheer.
It was like a double treat.
So, they put away their textbooks and headed downstairs as a group.
Gu Chen hadn’t expected her to pull this move and was a bit surprised.
The clothes were all in the locker rooms.
The boys would all be changing there soon.
‘This is bad.’
Her chest had already started showing signs of being an A-cup.
She hadn’t changed into her gym uniform during previous P.E. classes.
If she had to change into it now and take her clothes off, someone might notice.
So, she could only quicken her pace, running ahead of everyone to get to the locker room first, hoping to change quickly and not be discovered.
But just as she got her hands on the uniform, she heard someone coming in and was furious.
‘Dammit, would it kill you to come a little later?’
Gu Chen held the gym uniform and looked around.
‘Forget it. I’ll just have to find another hidden spot to change. The boys’ locker room is definitely out.’
The others saw Gu Chen take her uniform and leave.
No one dared to ask, just moving out of her way.
‘Where can I change?’
She looked around.
There didn’t seem to be a suitable place.
The dormitory was no good; you couldn’t enter during the day.
The classroom wasn’t safe either.
After thinking for a while, she really couldn’t think of a place to change.
“Classmate Gu Chen?”
Just as she was troubled, Wang Meng’s voice suddenly came from behind.
She had already changed into her gym uniform and was waving at her.
“Um… haven’t you changed yet?”
Wang Meng looked at the clothes in her hand and probably guessed.
“Not yet, no rush, no rush.”
Gu Chen forced a smile.
“You don’t know where to change, do you?”
Wang Meng blinked her eyes, saying it for her.
She was the only one in the whole school who knew Gu Chen was a girl, so she was being extra attentive.
She had thought of this while changing herself and had specifically come to check.
Gu Chen looked embarrassed: “Uh…”
‘The feeling of having your secret known really isn’t great. Thankfully, Wang Meng won’t tell anyone.’
“How about this? Go change in the girls’ locker room. It’s fine.”
“Huh? Are you kidding? I’d get beaten to death if I was discovered!”
Gu Chen was startled.
This idea was way too outrageous.
Even if she was a girl, her public identity was still male! If she really went into the girls’ locker room, she’d be too embarrassed…
“Of course not right now. Wait until all the girls have finished changing, then you can sneak in. I’ll keep watch at the door and warn you if anything happens.”
Wang Meng wasn’t a fool; of course, she understood that.
“Oh, like that. Okay.”
After hesitating, Gu Chen had no choice but to agree.
‘This is absolutely not because of any perverted thoughts. I really can’t find a place to change…’
Waiting until the girls’ locker room was empty and sneaking in was indeed a solution.
While the boys’ locker room would be the same, all things considered, between being discovered by girls and being discovered by boys, she’d rather choose the former.
So, the two waited for a while.
After confirming all the girls had changed, Gu Chen finally mustered the nerve and walked in.
‘So this is the girls’ locker room?’
It was Gu Chen’s first time here.
She looked around and found it wasn’t much different from the boys’ side.
‘All this curiosity for nothing. Pretty boring.’
So, she quickly changed into the gym uniform.
She couldn’t stay too long, lest something unexpected happen.
Just after changing, before Gu Chen could slip out…
“Ah!? Teacher Li, why are you here?”
Wang Meng’s surprised voice came from the doorway.
She had thought of everyone, but she had completely forgotten that the homeroom teacher hadn’t come to change yet.
When the P.E. teacher was a man, this situation naturally never occurred.
With the sudden change, she really hadn’t thought of it…
