Shen Mochen was searching through the bookshelves without turning his head, and said indifferently, "It's just boring gossip. So what?"
Catherine rolled her pen idly, "Just curious."
"Perhaps," Shen Mochen admitted, "no one has come to verify it with me."
Finally finding a reference book he liked, Shen Mochen returned to his desk with satisfaction. This was his first visit to the First Middle School's library. He had assumed the library stocked only leisure reading, but he found plenty of study materials and even some top students' "Top Scholar Notes."
"In fact, you don't need to hide your face; not so many people are out to get you."
Catherine looked up at him and gestured with her eyes for him to sit directly opposite her.
Shen Mochen pulled out a chair and sat down, "I just find it annoying. I just want to study quietly here at First Middle School."
