My Whole Class Isekai'd to a Xianxia? Good Thing I Can Do Mind-reading

After assessing the situation, the elders didn't stay long. They left as quickly as they had come, leaving Feng Fan alone by the lake.

'Seriously? These elders are heartless. Couldn't they at least give me a ride back to the main peak?'

Feng Fan was about two or three kilometers from his room, and it was already late at night.

If he weren't injured, the journey would have been easy, but his right leg was still hurt from his fight with Zhang Qi. The walk back would take longer than he liked.

Sighing, Feng Fan decided to limp his way home. By the time he arrived, the sky had already brightened—it was morning.

'Well, at least I don't have to wake up early,' he thought with a bitter smile.

Without bothering to change or even clean up, he collapsed onto his futon and fell asleep, completely unconcerned about the world around him.

A few hours later, Feng Fan woke up groggily, slowly taking in his surroundings. His gaze shifted—and then froze. Beside his futon, seated on her knees, was a figure that absolutely shouldn't be there.

When he met the figure's cold smile, his heart nearly leaped out of his chest.

"Qi-Qinqin, w-what are you doing here?" he stammered.

"Oh, Fanfan, I was just waiting for you to wake up. I hope you don't mind," she replied, her voice soft and gentle. But her cold smile and the murderous intent blazing in her eyes told a different story.

"It's getting a little hot in here, no?" Feng Fan said as the temperature around Xue Qiang was slowly rising.

It didn't take long for Feng Fan to figure out why she was there.

'Why? Why was Huang Xue visiting you late at night, Feng Fan... WHY?' she thought, fury bubbling beneath her calm exterior.

Feng Fan heard her thoughts and couldn't help but curse internally. 'Damn that nosy, gossiping master of hers! Why does one problem show up right after the other? God, please, give me a break!'

Outwardly, he forced a warm smile. "Of course not, you can come here anytime you want, Qinqin. But why were you waiting for me to wake up?"

Xue Qiang tilted her head, her chilling aura intensifying.

'I just wanted to decide whether to kill Huang Xue and lock you inside my room from now on… Hmm, maybe that's too extreme. What should I say?' she mused silently, sending an involuntary shiver down Feng Fan's spine.

"My master told me something interesting yesterday," she said, her tone casual. "Apparently, Huang Xue from our class came here to visit you late at night. She got captured, and you risked your life to save her. How touching. But tell me, Fanfan... why was she here in your room? Are you betraying me?"@@novelbin@@

'Betraying you? How could I betray you when we don't even have a relationship to begin with?!' Feng Fan screamed internally, but on the outside, he maintained a calm demeanor.

Still wearing his fake warm smile, he locked eyes with her and said, "Qinqin, don't misunderstand. Huang Xue is just a friend. She happened to be passing by and decided to stop for a quick chat. That's all."

Xue Qiang's eyes narrowed, a smile no longer on her face. "Oh, really? Since when do you have female friends? Back on Earth, you didn't seem close to any girls at all… Could it be, now that you're in this world, you're planning to build your own harem?"

Her voice grew colder with each word, and her smile was replaced by an icy expression that chilled Feng Fan to his core.

'Why the hell did I even bother trying to explain myself?' Feng Fan thought, frustrated.

Realizing that no explanation would penetrate this crazy woman's head, he decided to take a different approach. Without hesitation, he grabbed Xue Qiang's wrist and pulled her closer to him.

"Ah!" Xue Qiang let out a startled gasp.

His face was so close to her that she could feel his warm breath against his skin.

The sudden proximity made her heart race, not from anger this time, but from being so close to the person she loved.

Feng Fan's intense gaze and the closeness of his lips left her blushing uncontrollably, her tough demeanor melting into an embarrassed expression.

"Qinqin," he said in a low, serious tone, "you're the only one I've ever kissed. I've never kissed anyone else."

Before she could react, Feng Fan closed the gap between them, pressing his lips softly against hers.

This time, Xue Qiang was as timid as a rabbit. Feng Fan invaded her mouth with his tongue, and she just silently responded to his advances.

This kiss didn't take long, thought. After a few seconds, Feng Fan separated from her.

"Y-You better not be lying to me…" she muttered weakly.

Her embarrassed expression was so adorable that Feng Fan couldn't help but feel the urge to pinch her cheek. 'This crazy girl is way too cute!'

Unable to resist, he reached out and gently pinched her left cheek.

"Ah!" she yelped in surprise, pulling back slightly.

"What was that for?" she asked, her face puffed up in an indignant pout.

Feng Fan chuckled at her reaction. 'Looks like I found her weakness. When I take the initiative, she's as timid as a rabbit.'

"Sorry, Qinqin, your face was just too cute. I love it when you look at me like that," he admitted without thinking.

Xue Qiang's eyes lit up, and a wide smile spread across her face. "R-Really? You love it? I'll do it more for you, then!"

'HE SAID HE LOVED SOMETHING ABOUT ME! HE LOVES ME?!' she screamed internally.

Feng Fan, meanwhile, froze. 'What the hell? When did I say I love her?!'

Before he could process her reaction, Xue Qiang moved closer, wrapping her arms around him and resting her head on his shoulder.

"Sorry, Fanfan," she murmured softly. "I just get too jealous when other women come near you… Don't hate me. I'll try to hold back more from now on, okay?"

Feng Fan, surprised by the sudden embrace, found himself enjoying it. He gently stroked her hair. "It's okay. Just don't try to kill anyone out of jealousy, alright? Promise me."

'No,' she thought without hesitation.

"Okay, I promise," she said with a sweet nod.

"…"
