"Yes, I've never heard of the existence of a third specially recruited student before," Xia Zhiqing replied. "That's why this specially recruited student appears to be very special."
Xia Zhiqing's face was filled with excitement. The position of a specially recruited student at Canglan Academy was already extraordinary, and the identity of this particular student was even more special.
Baili Hongzhuang's eyes showed a hint of doubt. She had never heard of this specially recruited student before, and neither had Dongfang Yu and the others. She believed that they were also unaware of the existence of a third specially recruited student.
So, this third specially recruited student was indeed a special existence.
"But that's not the main point. The main point is that I heard this specially recruited student is not only powerful but also exceptionally handsome!" Xia Zhiqing raised an eyebrow, her eyes filled with excitement.
For a girl of her age, there was nothing more attractive than a handsome young man.
Seeing Xia Zhiqing's excited expression, Baili Hongzhuang couldn't help but smile helplessly. It seemed that this was the aspect that Zhiqing was most concerned about.
"But this third specially recruited student hasn't arrived yet. How do you know that he is handsome?" Baili Hongzhuang teased.
Xia Zhiqing blinked her eyes. "There are always some well-informed people in the academy, different from ordinary students and specially recruited students like you. Ordinary students are still very interested in gossip, especially girls."
"Now, everyone is curious about the identity of this specially recruited student! You know, among the specially recruited students, Gong Shaoqing and Liu Qinyue are very close, and Dongfang Yu has a great relationship with you."
"Many girls' hearts have been broken, and now there's only Bai Junyu left. Hearing that another outstanding and handsome young man is coming, wouldn't everyone be ecstatic?"
Baili Hongzhuang raised an eyebrow. "Dongfang Yu and I are just classmates."
It was true that Gong Shaoqing and Liu Qinyue had an ambiguous relationship, but she and Dongfang Yu didn't have anything like that.
"I know that," Xia Zhiqing nodded, then shrugged. "But other students don't know."
"Dongfang Senior is always gentle and amiable, and he's the most admired by the girls in the whole school. Since you and Dongfang Senior got acquainted, everyone has assumed that you have a close relationship. I heard that many senior sisters shed tears silently in the quiet of the night."
"Master, you've committed a great sin," Xiao Hei sighed.
Little Bai nodded in agreement. "If Emperor Beichen finds out, he will definitely be jealous!"
Baili Hongzhuang twitched her mouth. If it wasn't for Zhiqing's presence, she would have flicked these two pretending-to-be-profound furballs away!
"It's not that exaggerated," Baili Hongzhuang said helplessly. "It seems like I should be more careful in the future."
Xia Zhiqing shook her head, grabbing Baili Hongzhuang's hand and looking unusually serious.
"It doesn't matter. Dongfang Senior is a really good person. If you can be with him, I'll be happy for you!"
"As the saying goes, a good man should be firmly held in one's hand!"
