At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?

"It's the school beauty, Lin Xinyue! What's she doing here?"

"Wow! Did you hear that? Is this guy Lin Xinyue's boyfriend?"

"Shocking! Dude's in a relationship! Lin Xinyue actually has a boyfriend now!"

"Hurry, snap a photo and post it on the confession wall! This is blowing up!"

"Jealous much! Our Haidong top beauty has been swept away!"

"..."

Because only the boys who had taken shelter from the rain at the basketball court yesterday knew Lin Xinyue had a boyfriend, the news had not yet spread.

Even if a small number of people had heard, they just thought it was a rumor!

After all, as the campus number one goddess, Lin Xinyue was naturally no stranger to gossip!

And now, everyone saw everything for themselves!

The atmosphere among the onlookers exploded in an instant, everyone had just been focusing on the on-court conflicts and barely noticed Lin Xinyue behind them.

Even if a few people had spotted her, they were just secretly admiring the beauty of the school beauty.

They simply thought Lin Xinyue was just there to watch the fun.

But the first words Lin Xinyue said upon entering the scene were stunning!

My boyfriend is only gentle towards me!

Definitely an official announcement! She just declared her love rights!

"Wuuwuu... Lin Xinyue is so badass! Totally love it!"

Some junior girls looking at Lin Xinyue had stars in their eyes! That's just like those lady boss jokes on Dou Ying!

With that forceful declaration, Lin Xinyue had captured the hearts of all the young girls present!

Now, not only were the boys envious and resentful of Gu Yu, the girls looked at Gu Yu as they would a love rival!

Faced with everyone's intense gazes, Gu Yu smirked, wondering if this was the celebrity effect.

But his heart melted a bit, and he gently pinched Lin Xinyue's cheek, softly saying, "Yes, that's right, I'm only gentle towards you!"

The crowd went wild again!

"Damn damn damn! The drama I held in my hand turned into dog food!"

"Oh heavens! I'm just a passerby here for the drama, why turn me into a dog, too!"

"It's so sweet! Suddenly, I'm not even mad anymore! I ship this couple hard! Please keep spreading the love!"

"..."

Just then, Ying Hong suddenly spoke up, interrupting everyone's sentiments.

"That's disgusting! Making out in public, aren't you embarrassed?"

"Give me back my pen! I'm leaving! Standing in front of you two dogs, I feel humiliated!"

Ying Hong looked at the handsome guy and the beautiful girl in front of her, feeling utterly uncomfortable!

She was surrounded by people right now!

Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue were flaunting their affection, wasn't she just a bright shining lightbulb?

Moreover, Lin Xinyue's words just now were clearly a slap in her face!

She had never liked beautiful women like Lin Xinyue, and being slapped in the face by her just made her mark Lin Xinyue as an enemy!

In her heart, Lin Xinyue was nothing but a vixen who seduced men with her beauty!

Everyone was already not very happy about the school beauty being taken, but seeing Gu Yu and the school beauty so affectionate, they were forced to accept the fact!

But now, the thief who stole things even dared to speak rudely to their school beauty!

Immediately, a few boys rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward, prepared to teach Ying Hong a lesson.

Seeing the menacing guys, Ying Hong quickly hid behind her best friend.

Luckily, her best friend was somewhat brave, immediately spreading her arms in front of Ying Hong, shouting at the boys, "What are you trying to do? A group of big guys bullying a weak woman? This is right at the school gate!"

Gu Yu was insightful, although he too wanted to punch Ying Hong.

But he knew he shouldn't take action, especially since this was the school's main gate.

If these boys started a fight and the security guards stopped them, it would be fine, but if they didn't, with this woman's character, she would definitely bite back!

Being the subject of her revenge was not worth it!

"Everyone, calm down a bit, there's no need to get into a fight with such a woman, it's not worth it!"

Gu Yu hastily calmed the few hot-headed guys while Lin Xinyue also softly advised, "Yeah, everyone, don't be impulsive!"

The school beauty spoke, and the guys looked at each other, realizing their impulsiveness, and retreated back into the crowd.

"Fine, you can leave, but you need to return this student's pen!"

Ying Hong gave a cold laugh, crossed her arms over her chest, and pointed at the boy next to Gu Yu:

"Why should I? This is my pen! What proof do you have that this pen is his?"

Ying Hong was thinking that if she could find a way out, she would just take the pen and leave!

But hearing that this Lev Tolstoy pen was worth over nine hundred US dollars, she was tempted!

Getting the pen back would not only net her a tidy profit but also irk the couple in front of her!

Gu Yu looked at her defiant attitude and couldn't help but laugh.

"Fine! If you won't take the way out I'm giving you!"

He immediately activated his Golden Eyes, looking at the pen in front of him, and felt a flood of information entering his mind.

After quickly sorting through the information, Gu Yu capped the pen and lifted it up for everyone to see.

"Let me introduce the identity of this pen to everyone!"

"This pen, as you've just heard, is called Lev Tolstoy, and it is one of the Montblanc Writers Edition commemoratives."

"Everyone might not be very familiar with Montblanc, which was established in Europe in 1906 as a luxury brand, famed for its high-end writing instruments,"

After a brief introduction about the origins of the pen in his hand, Gu Yu removed the cap and began explaining the construction of the pen to the audience.

"As we can see, the silver nib is engraved with the number 4810, which represents the height of Mont Blanc, the highest peak in Europe. And do you see the six-pointed white star on the top of the pen? That's the overhead view of Mont Blanc."

"Since the beginning with Montblanc's Meisterstück, all nibs are engraved with the number 4810, which has become a signature feature of Montblanc pens!"

"Of course, not every nib is the same. This particular nib is rhodium-plated. Do you see the design beneath 4810 that resembles a pair of crossed wings and swords? That's the coat of arms of the Lev Tolstoy family!"

"Below that, the number 'AU750' isn't anything special. If you've paid attention to jewelry materials before, you'd know this means it contains 75% gold, commonly known as 18K gold!"

"Having said this, I'd like to ask the two of you, since you both claim this pen as yours, you should know what type of nib this is, right?"

As Gu Yu spoke, he seemed like an extremely professional luxury goods seller, smiling as he looked towards the two "pen owners."

He first looked at Ying Hong. Ying Hong was taken aback, then bit her lip and dismissively said, "Who pays special attention to the nib of a pen? There's no difference; as long as it works, right? I don't remember!"

Gu Yu shook his head slightly, speaking seriously, "No, you are wrong. For those who regularly use pens, the difference is significant!"

Without arguing with Ying Hong, he then turned his gaze to the young man.

The young man nodded at Gu Yu's questioning look, "Yes, this pen nib is an F nib because I prefer using a finer point."

After hearing the young man's reply, Gu Yu snapped his fingers.

"Bingo! Correct answer! This pen's nib is an F nib, which means it's a fine point. It's even finer than the usual fine-point ballpoint pens we commonly use. Another common type is the M nib, which is about the width of a 0.38mm ballpoint pen tip!"

"For those who frequently use fountain pens, there's a significant difference in feel between the two types of nibs!"

Gu Yu explained in simple terms, and everyone immediately understood the difference.

Thus, they looked down on Ying Hong even more as the evidence was clear as day.

She still had the nerve to claim the pen as her own!

Incredible! With no shame, she was unstoppable!

Ying Hong's face turned very ugly, and although she didn't want to leave just like that, she continued, "Anyway, I forgot, he guessed it! There are only two types of pen nibs, it's easy to guess right with a random guess!"

Gu Yu disdainfully glanced at her, "Sorry! There are actually five standard sizes for pen nibs. As for which five they are, I suggest you go look it up yourself!"

Ying Hong's face shifted from red to pale, then back to red, and she only thought about turning around and leaving, but she was not willing to let it go so easily.

So, she folded her arms in front of her chest and glared at Gu Yu coldly, looking unshakable no matter what he said.

"You're not convinced, are you?" Gu Yu shrugged.

She had the opportunity to leave, but didn't. No one could blame him for continuing to make her face reality.

Gu Yu then took the cap of the pen in his right hand, clutching it in his fist.

"May I ask, what number is engraved on this pen cap? Friendly reminder, this pen is one of a limited edition of 9000, so the number is between 1 and 9000. Please, take a serious guess, miss!"

Watching the ashen-faced Ying Hong, Gu Yu's face broke into a teasing smile.

Given a one in 9000 chance, he truly didn't believe she could guess it right.

As expected, Ying Hong clenched her fists, nearly biting her lips bloody, and ultimately chose to give up.

Visibly annoyed, she glared at Gu Yu before pulling her friend and squeezing out of the crowd.

Watching her concede voluntarily, Gu Yu couldn't resist calling out jokingly, "Hey! Classmate! Don't you want the pen anymore?"

Ying Hong paused, then hurriedly quickened her steps to walk away quickly.

"Alright, I'm giving your item back to you!"

Having driven away the thick-skinned woman, Gu Yu turned around and handed the pen to the young man whose pen had been stolen.

The young man quickly said, "The number is 1998, my birthday... if you don't believe me, I can go back to the dorm and get the purchase receipt right now!"

Gu Yu smiled slightly, "Yes, you are right again, but it's already yours, so why prove anything?"

The young man's face lit up as he eagerly took the pen, thanking him profusely.

"Thank you, thank you so much! My name is Ma Tengyun! I'm a student of class 2, finance major, class of 2019. Please feel free to seek my help with anything in the future as long as it's within Modu—my dad still holds some influence there!"

Gu Yu nodded, indicating he had taken note.

"Let's go, let's go! Let's hurry to the subway!"

Seeing the matter resolved, Lin Xinyue playfully tugged at Gu Yu, gently swaying.

The ice-cold school beauty playing coy!

Unprecedented!

The bystanders who had just witnessed the drama burst into a commotion once again.

"What a sin! Why did I leave my dorm today?"

"Tell me this isn't real!"

"No, this is real…"

"Die already! Darn it, you're no help at all!"

"…"

Amidst the crowd's lamentations, Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue left side by side, hand in hand.

"Ah, senior, I forgot to ask your name!"

Realizing he hadn't asked the name of the person who helped him as he watched his savior walk away, Ma Tengyun quickly called out.

"Gu Yu, 'Gu' from the Gu Family, 'Yu' as in feather!"

Gu Yu answered without turning back.

"Gu Yu, Gu Yu... okay, I've got it."

Ma Tengyun repeated softly twice, then slapped his forehead:

"Damn! I forgot to add to FriendX!"

But seeing Gu Yu enter the subway, he had to give up the idea.
