Chapter 73: Qin Yanran Was Not Happy

  "It seems that Liu Yuanfeng's hand has reached too far, and he actually secretly troubled my parents over the matter between us. It looks like if we don't get rid of him, our family won't be able to rest in peace!"

  After lunch, Su Lin carried his backpack and headed to Jian'an No. 1 Middle School, thinking about this problem all the way.

  "The account book that was copied from the Longhu Gang's underground base yesterday lists many illegal transactions between Liu Yuanfeng, his father Liu Jianguo, and the Longhu Gang. This account book should have been handed over to the police by Han Xiaoxiao by now, and I believe it won't be long before their crimes are exposed to the world. Hmph! Liu Yuanfeng, your good days are coming to an end. Just wait and see what happens to you and your evil father!"

  For corrupt officials, Su Lin has been deeply resentful since childhood under the influence of his father Su Guorong. Yesterday, he saw those shocking numbers on the account book, and Su Lin saw that the bribe amount received by Municipal Party Secretary Liu Jianguo added up to tens of millions of RMB, all of which were the people's hard-earned money!

  "After school this afternoon, I'll give Captain Yan of the criminal police team a call to ask about the progress of the case. However, this time it involves so many officials, and there are over a dozen named officials recorded in the account book that I've roughly flipped through. If we really investigate thoroughly, I estimate that half of Jian'an City's political circle will be implicated..."

  Recalling the names seen in the account book yesterday, many of them were municipal leaders often seen by Su Lin on the city TV station, such as bureau chiefs and deputy bureau chiefs. Fortunately, Su Lin did not see Fang Lianping's name in the account book.

  "Mayor Ping is a good official and a good mayor. Of course she won't collude with those people."

  Actually, yesterday when flipping through the account book, Su Lin also had a moment of worry about what to do if he really saw Fang Lippin's name on this account book. Fortunately, there was no Fang Lippin's name on it, indicating that Fang Lippin and Longhu Gang had nothing to do with each other.

  "Whatever! This isn't something I can consider, catching underworld gangs is the job of criminal police. Investigating corrupt officials is the job of the discipline inspection committee. I'm just an ordinary high school student in my third year, what's the point of thinking about so much? I'd better focus on preparing for tomorrow's college entrance exam instead."

  Su Lin really felt that he was now somewhat overly worried about the world, he was just a student, how could he control so many major events?

  Finally arrived at the gate of Jian'an No. 1 Middle School, with the college entrance examination approaching, the entire school has a pre-war atmosphere, especially that high-three teaching building, almost no noise, everyone is making a final sprint before the exam.

  "Sulin! What's wrong with you again today? You didn't come to class again? The college entrance exam is just around the corner, and everyone is making every second count, but you're still so carefree, thinking that doing well on one test will guarantee everything?"

  Su Lin hadn't even reached the classroom door when he was caught by his homeroom teacher, Lin Qingxue. Needless to say, he was scolded from head to toe.

  "Teacher Lin, I...I really have something going on. You see, my mom also called you to ask for leave, didn't she?"

  Feeling Lin Qingxue's anger, Su Lin felt guilty and lowered his head, not daring to meet Lin Qingxue's eyes. However, Su Lin's gaze was not idle, glancing from head to toe at Lin Qingxue's body.

  Today, Lin Qingxue's outfit was still a very uncreative professional attire, a small suit, white shirt, black leather skirt with flesh-colored silk stockings, high heels that were always polished to shine, and made a loud clicking sound when she walked.

  Although he knew that Lin Qingxue was dressed like this every time, Su Lin still couldn't help but look at her repeatedly, especially the full pair on Lin Qingxue's chest, which seemed to be getting bigger and bigger lately. Otherwise, why did Su Lin always feel that the white shirt was about to burst open?

  "Anything wrong? Nothing is more important than the college entrance exam! Su Lin, it's not what your teacher said, but with your current grades, you absolutely have hope to get into a top-tier university. If you work even harder, you might even be able to get into Tsinghua, Peking or Yanjing University. Now, all you need to do is put all your energy into studying and stop being so lazy and indulgent. Otherwise, the good grades you've worked hard for will all go down the drain in the college entrance exam..."

  As for Su Lin, Lin Qingxue doesn't know what she feels about him now. This morning, not seeing Su Lin made her feel empty inside, so before the afternoon class, she kept pacing back and forth in the corridor outside Class 3(2), hoping to catch a glimpse of Su Lin.

  However, Su Lin is not aware of Lin's thoughts about himself at the moment, and instead feels a bit annoyed by Lin Qingxue's nagging, although Su Lin knows that Lin Qingxue is doing this for his own good. But Su Lin doesn't worry about his college entrance exam at all, having consolidated and absorbed the knowledge points from Qin Yanran's notebook, Su Lin has already got everything under control.

  After being "cared for" by Lin Qingxue for a while, Su Lin was finally allowed to return to the classroom. As soon as he returned to his seat, Li Hao, who sat next to him, curiously came over and said: "I say, Linzi, you're really something now. In the past, you were late by at most half an hour, but now you didn't even show up for the entire morning! Did you know that many girls came to our class looking for you this morning?"

  Saying that, Li Hao mysteriously took out a thick stack of various fancy envelopes and placed them on the table. "Take a look at these, they're all love letters from those girls to you. Now you can really be considered popular, becoming the white knight prince of the whole school."

  "A love letter for me? No way! So many?"

  Su Lin was also stunned, this thick stack, there must be fifty or sixty love letters? He had never thought that his speech would cause such a sensation and so many girls would write him love letters.

  "Now you can be happy. Not only does our class leader have a crush on you, but also so many young girls adore you, Linzi, what great god did you worship recently? Tell me, I'll go burn some incense too..."

  Li Hao said this with a sour tone, and it's simply that he's jealous to death of Su Lin. If one day he also suddenly has good luck with women, like Su Lin having so many girls write love letters to confess their feelings to him, wouldn't he be over the moon?

  "Alright! Haosan, you'd better lose some weight first. Otherwise, with that big belly of yours, the girls will be scared away at first sight."

  Su Lin also smiled and teased Li Hao, then casually opened a few love letters and started reading them.

  Exquisite envelopes, gorgeous letter paper, beautiful handwriting, and even a faint scent after opening the letter. It was Su Lin's first time receiving love letters from girls since birth, but he didn't expect to receive so many at once.

  "Hehe..."

  After reading several letters, Su Lin couldn't help but feel a bit fed up. At first, she had a little vanity and pride, but after reading more, most of the love letters to herself were similar. They all basically expressed their approval of her speech that day, liked her very much, and hoped to be friends with her.

  What's more, the same senior three girl also revealed in the letter that she wanted to go to the same city university with Su Lin and asked Su Lin what volunteer she wanted to fill out for the college entrance examination.

  "How about it? How about it? Lin Zi, among these girls, is there anyone very pretty?"

  Li Hao looked at Su Lin with a face full of expectation, but Su Lin just smiled and waved the letter in his hand, "I can only see if the words in this letter are beautiful or not, as for people, they didn't even include photos, how would I know?"

  "Is it? Well... are you going to write back to them?"

  "What's with all these messages? I'm exhausted from responding to each one. They're just young girls being silly, not worth paying attention to."

  Before this speech, Su Lin was just an ordinary boy, unknown and unremarkable. Which girl would like him and write him a love letter? In Su Lin's opinion, these girls were just infatuated with him temporarily, admiring him out of youthful passion.

  True love isn't like this, where can you fall in love with someone just because of a brief encounter?

  Put these love letters away properly. Su Lin didn't have any interest in looking at them again, so she threw them all to Li Hao and said: "If you want to return them, you go return them, anyway I won't."

  "What am I supposed to say? It's not like they wrote it for me. If it were for me, that would be great, even if there were 100 letters, I'd definitely respond to each one."

  With a sly smile, Li Hao suddenly pulled Su Lin over and whispered, "However, Linzi, our school flower class leader seems to be a bit off today."

  "What's wrong with her? What's going on?"

  Su Lin's expression changed slightly as soon as Li Hao mentioned Qin Yanran.

  "Do you still remember the last time you didn't come to class? The school flower would occasionally glance at your seat, obviously missing you, and couldn't calm down when she couldn't see you. But today, as soon as class started, the school flower hasn't looked over here even once."

  Everyone says that fat boys are meticulous and subtle, which is absolutely right. Li Hao is such a meticulous and subtle fat boy. In the four classes in the morning, Su Lin didn't come, and Li Hao didn't have the heart to attend class either. He spent the whole morning observing school flower Qin Yanran.

  Under his tireless observation and comparison, Li Hao found that today's Qin Yanran was quite off.

  "What's wrong with that? The college entrance exam is coming up soon, and Yanran must be studying hard. Do you think everyone is as careless as you are, not even listening in class?"

  Although he said so, Su Lin raised his head and looked at Qin Yanran's seat, and he also had some doubts in his heart: "It seems to be true what Haozi said. When I just came into the classroom, Yanran only glanced at me once and didn't look at me again."

  "Really! Lin Zi, could it be that our school flower is jealous because too many girls are confessing to you?"

  Li Hao's face twisted into a wicked grin, but in his heart, he was also filled with envy, jealousy and hatred towards Su Lin.

  "Don't spout nonsense, Haozi. I'll go take a look..."

  He remembered that there were still a few notebooks borrowed from Qin Yanran in his backpack, and Su Lin had taken the opportunity to return them to her after finishing reading them with his instant memory.

  Su Lin took out those notebooks from her backpack, taking advantage of the fact that the afternoon class had not started yet. She walked to Qin Yanran's seat, put them on her desk and said with a smile: "Thank you so much, Yanran! Your notes are great, I've finished reading them all."

  "Hmm!"

  Su Lin was about to say a few more words to Qin Yanran and also ask her about filling out the college application form after the Gaokao, but he didn't expect that Qin Yanran wouldn't even lift her head to look at him. She just hummed softly with her nose and then put several notebooks into her backpack, ignoring Su Lin from then on.

  "This..."

  Once again, Su Lin felt the cold attitude from Qin Yanran, the Iceberg Goddess and school beauty, and his heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Qin Yanran was unhappy.
