Chapter 8 Chen Yuan, Someone is Looking for You
```
Unlike in anime and comics, where transfer students grab attention due to some unique identity, in reality, transfer students are popular for just two reasons: novelty is one of them.
The other requires unlocking with high attractiveness.
Girls who look like Zhou Fu do exist in the class, but only she can be considered a true Sona.
This maturity beyond her years and the freshness of a blossom about to bloom can easily stir up the desires of wholesome adolescents—it's downright criminal, a seductress.
To the locals in the class, this is an opportunity to reinvent their character settings; All the stupid things they've done and the stupid people they've lost can be swept under the rug. Moreover, since the newcomer is such a 'big' beautiful girl, the boys in the class naturally strut around like peacocks, arching their backsides and subtly emitting mating calls.
For instance, posting up against the classroom wall, suddenly exclaiming 'What are you doing, ouch,' or spinning a basketball.
Indeed, very amusing courting psychology.
"Also, peacocks don't literally arch their backsides, Zhou Yu, calm down."
"This girl seems easy to get along with," Zhou Yu continued, leaning on his desk and striking up a conversation with Chen Yuan: "Just now her deskmate called her to go to the toilet, and she went with her. She even let her deskmate link arms with her, just like best friends."
"Achieving toilet diplomacy with girls on her first day, looks like she won't be subjected to bullying."
"I've got a secret for you," Zhou Yu whispered into Chen Yuan's ear, his hand covering his mouth, "During class, she kept sneaking glances at me."
"Pfft."
Chen Yuan couldn't hold back his laughter.
"What are you laughing at, your mommy? Jealous, aren't you? Can't stand to see your brother doing well?"
"Not at all, I'm happy for you."
Poor Zhou Yu, stricken with strabismus at such a young age.
She was clearly looking at me.
"Do you believe that once Zhou Fu comes over, just by greeting her, she will definitely respond?"
"Any normal person would respond,"
"With a shy smile."
"For real, bro? You're playing that big?" Chen Yuan feigned concern and advised, "How about adding her on QQ first, stalking her Moments, sneakily liking her info-card, pretending to send holiday blessings to everyone on a public holiday to trick her into replying, and then squirming in your bed like a larva under the quilt."
"No, this might be my only chance in this lifetime. Haven't you seen those shameless boys in our class competing without any bottom line? Time waits for no one… Wait, are you making fun of me?"
Of course, I am.
Zhou Yu, this is what Chen Yuan knows best about you: a giant in boasting, a dwarf in action. Every time you say you're going to hit on a girl, you add her on QQ but don't dare to greet her. When you see her, you tuck your head into your neck as if you're trying to disappear. You're all about 'we all love crazy fantasies.'
"Alright, you go for it, I'll also say hello to her later."
Of course, at this time, Chen Yuan is always encouraging.
It's these bits of fun that sustain the tedious daily campus life.
"Here she comes."
Chen Yuan whispered a heads-up.
Zhou Yu nodded, his expression focused as he waited for her to approach.
But as she passed by, his hand suddenly stiffened, not lifting it up at all, his gaze involuntarily dodging before she had completely passed. He then somberly turned around, pretending to write and draw in his notebook.
"What happened to him?" puzzled by this reaction, Zhou Fu couldn't help asking Chen Yuan with curiosity.
"It's nothing, Batman tricked him into thinking that if he went back to Gotham, he wouldn't get beaten up, so he really went back."
Chen Yuan wanted to howl with laughter.
"Uh..."
Zhou Fu pushed up her glasses, looked at the slightly sly Chen Yuan, then glanced at the bullied and meek Zhou Yu, her cheeks suddenly blushing. Then, she pushed her glasses again and changed the subject: "I heard that you're also a day student, right?"
"Yeah, I rent a place outside."
"I want to rent a place to live too, that must be really nice."
"Why? Aren't your parents local?"
"No, I live at home, that's why I want to rent a place outside."
"You shouldn't; what's the point of renting if you have a home? It's so much better to have home-cooked meals. Cooking for yourself, cleaning, and making the bed is just torture." If it weren't for the county's mistake-filled collection of problems, who wouldn't want to live the life of a pampered young master?
The only advantage of living alone is that you can confidently hold...
Exports videos to platforms as an up-and-coming content creator.

"Uh, sure, haha." Zhou Fu gave an awkward laugh and nodded, then took out her cellphone, "So, since we're all day students, if I have any unclear questions, can I ask you?"
"Ok."
Chen Yuan casually took out his cellphone and let her scan the QR code. Then, he noticed she was adding him on WeChat, not QQ.
It must be a matter of habit.
But other than Zhou Yu's, he had never added anyone else's WeChat from the class.
After all, for Chen Yuan, WeChat was just a platform for transferring money to ask the Old Man for some money.
After adding on WeChat, Zhou Fu was called over by a class officer, so she trotted off.
Pudding, pudding.
"Fuck, how did you start chatting, and even added each other on WeChat? Son of a bitch, are you going to steal this from me too?" Zhou Yu, with his arm around Chen Yuan's neck, acted like a brother robbed of his love in a fit of anger.
A moment ago, it was a black and white clown, and now it's a clown with a warmer hue, making a perfect pair of jokers.
"Calm down, calm down, maybe she just wants to get close to you through me. Didn't you see she didn't even shyly smile at me?"
"..." After being comforted like this, Zhou Yu seemed to suddenly come to his senses, lifting his head to look towards Zhou Fu.
And just then, his gaze met Zhou Fu's.
This exceptional, slightly chubby girl had a touch of pink on her cheeks, stealing glances back at him and revealing the shy, tender smile seen in class.
Chen Yuan, you're really a damn genius!
So this was the plan, the new transfer student is quite something!
With a ripple of laughter on his face and eyes shining as if greased with pork fat, Zhou Yu was meanwhile completely besotted.
And there was a long line of boys with the same affliction,
savoring the transfer student's stolen glances and shy smiles.
Yeah, she likes me.
Ah, the joys of youth.
Who is she really looking at, don't I know, sitting in front of her?
"..." Watching as his demeanor suddenly became more refined, filled with an air of confidence, He Sijiao could only sigh inwardly.
Poor boys, all toyed with by the E-Cup girl.
After a whole morning's classes and intermingling during breaks, the transfer student's popularity gradually decreased.
At lunch break, with the first-year students who had just finished military training about to descend en masse on the canteen, the students rushed there to grab a hot meal.
"Let's go, time to eat!" Zhou Yu urged.
"Didn't get to eat breakfast this morning, I'm starving. I could eat a whole pig raw," Chen Yuan said as he closed his notebook and stood up, ready to devour his meal.
"Youyou's mom brought her lunch... Can I join you guys?"
After a morning's interaction, besides getting along well with her desk mate, Li Youyou, Zhou Fu had the most communication with her front-row classmates, Chen Yuan and He Sijiao, so she took the initiative to ask to join.
The saying, "Those who live near the water know first when the moon appears," wasn't wrong.
Facing her request, before Chen Yuan responded, Zhou Yu was incessantly poking him with his hand—say yes, c'mon say yes, you got mute or what?
Clearly, Zhou Yu was quite eager to play stepdad.
Enough with the matchmaking, let's just keep the normal classmate friendship, even though she seems quite attentive to me in secret.
"Alright, then let's rush, make it quick, make it quick."
Seeing Chen Yuan agree, Zhou Fu glanced at Zhou Yu next to her, who appeared quite petite, and her glasses sparkled with an intelligent white light.
Of course, she positioned herself beside He Sijiao.
He Sijiao: "?"
Huh?
I'm not having lunch with Chen Yuan, what's going on?
"Chen Yuan, someone is looking for you."
At this moment, a classmate suddenly called out from the doorway.
Then, a strand of black long hair entered his sight, followed by a girl carrying a large lunch box, cautiously peeking in, revealing only half of her delicate face.
