But the blue-haired girl beside her? She was no fool.
She looked at Qiao Li for a long moment, then gave a soft sigh.
"You know," she said slowly, "I have a feeling this 'friend' you're talking about… is you."
Qiao Li stiffened.
The blue-haired girl smiled, not in a teasing way, but like she just knew. Still, she didn't push.
"Anyway," she said, stretching her arms, "a new professor is coming to our class today. You should definitely attend."
Qiao Li blinked. "Why?"
The girl grinned. "'Cause he's supposed to be suuuper handsome."
Qiao Li rolled her eyes hard. "I'm not interested."
"Oh come on," the girl groaned. "Just because one fish in the ocean bit you doesn't mean you throw away the whole ocean!"
Qiao Li blushed. "I didn't—! I'm not throwing anything away!"
The blue-haired girl, who had decided her name should be Yoyo, didn't even listen. She grabbed Qiao Li's wrist and stood up.
"Nope. You're coming with me," Yoyo said. "Cute boys heal all wounds."
