Highly enjoyable class

This lesson was highly enjoyable as compared to the last one. The female teacher told them that though the painting room was not yet available, they could paint anything by their imagination in an hour that was left of the hour and the half.

Ying Xuan felt like painting a night scene. So she made a clear star-filled sky with a full moon. She also drew a forest and river, reflecting the beautiful moon and the stars in a still night.

The students sitting close by peered into her painting and complimented it, and Xuan saw their paintings and was hearty with her praise. Some of them were good, really good. They did not seem to mind that Xuan could not speak and did not once put her on a pedestal due to her beauty. Ying Xuan liked them. They were nice and genuinely cared for talent.

At the end of the class, the teacher asked them all to finish their paintings by tomorrow. She said that this would be their homework.

Xuan was happy, because she would anyway have sat down to finish it in the night.

Ying Xuan was beaming as she exited the class. She had a fun-filled class and was looking forward to lunch. A boy who had been sitting opposite to her seat approached her as she was about to go out the door.

He called from behind, "Hey, Ying Xuan. Wait!"

Ying Xuan turned around.

The boy caught up at the door and said, "Umm....I was wondering if...you would....umm...maybe like to....have lunch together?" He looked up hopefully as he finished her sentence.

Ying Xuan saw that the boy looked really sincere. She thought for a moment about declining but decided that a lunch would not hurt. She took out her phone and typed, "If you don't mind having lunch with my friends."

The boy looked very excited as he nodded his head like a chicken. "Of course I don't mind. Wait a minute, let me get my stuff."

Ying Xuan typed, "Let's meet up at the cafeteria. I have to put my things in the locker."

The boy almost jumped up with excitement. He said, "Of course. Of course. Thank you."

He then ran away to pack his stuff. The boy could not believe that this beautiful, angel-like goddess had agreed to have lunch with her.

Ying Xuan also exited the classroom. She did not see a person with a very ugly expression sitting on the closest bench, nor did she hear the cracking of a paintbrush.

The boy packed up his stuff hastily and started walking out. Just as he was at the door however, the boy felt a chill down his spine. He turned around to see Wei Jingyu looking like he wanted to murder someone.

The boy gulped as he said, "You-young master Wei, do you....do you need anything?"

Wei Jingyu looked at him, his face dark.

The boy suddenly had the sensation that if he did not run, the person who would die would be him.

The boy hastily said, "If there's nothing. I'll... I'll be going." Saying this he ran out before Wei Jingyu had the chance to say anything.
