Eva stood there petrified.

She didn’t know what to say.

Zayn didn’t wait for her to answer, turning to Laura with a tone that barely concealed his disdain, “Don’t accept such suggestions, unless you’re the heroine.”

With that, Zayn turned and walked away.

Janelle watched his retreating figure with admiration, sighing, “Zayn seems even more handsome than on TV.”

Sheryl nodded and then suddenly alerted, “You can’t fall for Zayn. He belongs to Lala.”

Janelle frowned, “I wouldn’t. He’s not my type at all. I prefer guys who are gentle and refined, like Xander.”

They looked at each other and then turned back, smugly eyeing Eva.

“Eva, I’m sorry to say that, but everyone who watches the variety show knows that Zayn only likes Laura. He’s willing to be Laura’s prince, not yours. You’re not upset, are you?”

Eva bowed her head, standing still without any expression on her face.

Laura tugged at their sleeves, “Zayn doesn’t usually like performing on stage. He’s only doing it because he knows me well.”

Eva interjected unexpectedly, “I see. Zayn does make exceptions for you.”

Laura looked at her in surprise.

Eva stood in place without any expression, “I’m envious that you have such a childhood sweetheart.”

After saying that, she looked up with a smile, “Then let’s go back to class together.”

Laura was puzzled to hear this and thought, ‘Eva changed so quickly. Or was she never angry?‘

Eva walked over to her, amiably taking her hand, “How about I treat everyone to milkshake at lunch? After all, I’ve just arrived here and I’m not familiar with many things in Hestrya, and I only drank a strawberry milkshake. I heard there are many different kinds of milkshakes, can you tell me which ones are good?”

Laura agreed and said, “Of course.”

Sheryl and Janelle exchanged glances, bluntly saying, “You were rejected by Zayn. Aren’t you upset?”

Eva blinked innocently, countering with a question, “Why should I be upset? I just like talented people who are fit for the stage and it was purely because of that, not for Zayn.”

The three girls were taken aback by her response.

Laura thought and glanced at Janelle, ‘Eva was not as bad as they said.

Janelle also felt that she had misunderstood and said awkwardly, “Alright then, since you had no such intentions, let’s just be friends. After all, I’m new here today as well, so I’m trying to fit in.”

Eva smiled. She clasped her hands in front of her chest, “Great. With you guys here, I’ll feel at ease.”

Eva eagerly took Laura’s hand again, “We have gym class later this afternoon and I love gym class. It’s a chance to chat with other girls, which just makes me so happy.”

Laura smiled and nodded to Eva.

Soon it was time for gym class.

Janelle and Sheryl had already changed their clothes ahead of time.

As Eva was changing, she suddenly clutched her stomach and wailed, “Oh no, my stomach hurts. Can you wait for me a bit?”

Laura, who had already changed into her sportswear, looked at the time and said, “Class is about to start. Wouldn’t it be bad to be late?”

Eva held her stomach in agony, “But I can’t take it because my stomach hurts so much.”

Eva lifted her eyes towards the three, “Who can help me ask for leave, and who can stay with me? I don’t want to be alone.”

Saying so, her plaintive eyes locked onto Laura.

Touched by her gaze, Laura raised her hand, “Then I’ll stay with you. Sheryl and Janelle, could you guys please ask for leave on our behalf?”

Janelle and Sheryl nodded and left. Soon the bell rang, and ten minutes passed but Eva had not emerged from the restroom.

Laura began worried.

Laura had never been late before and urged, “Eva, how much longer will you stay?”

Eva’s pained voice came from the restroom stall, “I’m feeling a bit unwell. You go ahead and don’t wait for me anymore.”

After hesitating several times, Laura nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll go ahead, but you should hurry over.”

Laura couldn’t afford to be late.

The opportunity for education had not come easily, and Laura didn’t want the teacher to get a bad impression of her.

Laura quickly returned to the gym, “Teacher, I’m back.”

Seeing her alone, the female gym teacher frowned, “Where is Eva?”

Laura explained, “She’s still feeling unwell in her stomach. Since we were already late, she told me to come

back first.”

A flicker of concern crossed the teacher’s face, “How could she stay so long?”

It had been 15 minutes already.

The teacher instructed, “You all can play freely, but no one is to leave the gym. I’ll go see her and be right back. Anyone who leaves will lose points.”

The students nodded in agreement.

Janelle and Sheryl approached Laura, “Did Eva Get an upset stomach?”

Laura shook her head, looking worriedly toward the door.

Soon after, Eva returned with the gym teacher, tears streaming down her face, and she seemed very uncomfortable, leaning on the teacher.

Laura’s heart clenched, and she asked her, “Eva, why are you crying?”

Eva was sobbing with puffy eyes, rubbing them and not speaking.

Laura reached out to touch her face, “You must be so uncomfortable.”

Just then, the gym teacher reprimanded Laura while holding Eva back, “Laura, did you lock her in the restroom?”

Laura was stunned.

Janelle and Sheryl were also shocked, “What?”

Eva continued to cry without speaking, casting a fearful glance at Laura.

The teacher’s expression grew even more displeased, “When I found her, she was crying in the restroom, and the door had been blocked on the outside with a mop. Did you lock her in there?”

The class was stunned, all turning to look at Laura.

Bewildered, Laura responded, “No, it wasn’t me.”

Eva still accused, “Laura, you were the only one with me at that time, if not you but who? I didn’t mean to go after Zayn. I explained everything clearly to you, but how could you pretend to be my friend and then lock me up?”

With that, Eva collapsed onto the ground in a heap, wailing.

Laura, more bewildered than ever, faced the suspicious glances of her classmates and shook her head, “It wasn’t me. I was waiting outside the restroom the whole time.”

The gym teacher, with a stern expression, showed her the security footage, “The video shows you going into the restroom with Eva, and you didn’t come out until ten minutes later. There’s no surveillance in the restroom, but what exactly did you do during that time? Explain yourself.”

Laura was struck as if by lightning and thought, “There was no surveillance of the restroom to explain to me. How was I supposed to explain this?‘
