"So many scholars in the academy admire Su Muqing. If you manage to win her over, remember to get me an autograph."
I was speechless.
I couldn't even begin to imagine it.
Now when I looked at Su Muqing, it felt like I was staring at a cross-dressing master.
No, she was definitely a cross-dressing master.
In the academy, I exchanged glances with Su Muqing.
It felt a bit terrifying.
After all, I now knew her secret.
I quickly averted my gaze and sat down.
I patted my chest; that scared me to death.
When class ended, I returned from the restroom.
I found a note tucked inside my textbook.
I glanced around but didn't see anyone watching me.
Cautiously, I unfolded the note.
It read: "After school, behind the third flowerbed of the school building, don't be late."
At the bottom of the note was a small drawing of a plum blossom.
I clutched my chest, feeling my heart race.
Which girl wrote this for me?
How romantic.
After school, I decided to go meet her.
However, I planned to reject her confession.
After all, for me, discussing marriage was still too early.
This could affect my chances in the Imperial Examination.
However, I must admit that there is a hint of pride swelling within me. Yet, I remain clear-headed. As a candidate with hopes of excelling in the Imperial Examination, how could I allow myself to be distracted by matters of love? I must focus on performing well in the Imperial Examination first. Once I achieve Successful Admission to the Imperial Examination, then I can discuss such things.
Nonetheless, I can use this opportunity to send a message to my fellow students. I, the top scholar of the academy, Lin Changzhe, am quite popular. But I will absolutely remain single-minded for the sake of the Imperial Examination!
After school, I dashed out of the classroom as quickly as possible and hurried to the third flowerbed in the academy's backyard. With my back to the path I came from, I adjusted my hair bun. Using saliva. There was no other choice; time was tight, and this would have to do. However, my hairstyle is truly unique—one that cannot be found in any illustrated book on the market. Even though the academy has regulations regarding hairstyles, I would never compromise.
Once I had tidied up my bun using my secret techniques, I grabbed an Azure Silk Cloak and draped it over myself. A White Jade Twin Fish Pendant hung from my waist. I looked utterly dashing.
I plucked a White Jasmine flower and held it in my hand. Soon, I would use this flower to comfort the heart of the girl I had rejected. Unconsciously, I began to hum a tune—one that was improvised on the spot.
As the girl approached within ten steps, I began to speak.
"As students, we should focus on our studies, not on private matters..."
Before I could finish my sentence, a cold glint flashed, and a dagger pressed against my neck.
I froze in fear, unable to move.
"You brat, have you been following Su Muqing?"
"Do you know the secret she carries?"
A stranger's voice demanded.
I shook my head vigorously, like a rattle drum. "Spare me, good sir! How could I possibly follow Su Muqing?"
"Speak quickly! Do you know her secret or not?"
"I... I don't know."
The man snorted coldly. "Listen here, whether you know or not..."
"If you dare to reveal Su Muqing's secret, I'll make you disappear."
I nodded fervently, like a chick pecking at grains. "Alright, I won't say a word."
The man sheathed his dagger and turned to leave.
I glanced back at the distant figure of the girl in white.
Her long hair flowed gracefully, and her attire was as white as snow.
It was... Su Muqing!
Could it be that she was about to confess her feelings to me?
