The morning study sessions swiftly passed.

Finally, it was Lin Yu's favorite time of the day.

The joy of mealtime!

After getting his food at the cafeteria window, Lin Yu eagerly found a spot to settle down and eat.

Midway through his meal, Lin Yu suddenly felt a peculiar sensation, as if someone was watching him.

Curiously glancing around, he saw no one staring in his direction.

Just my imagination?

Lin Yu pondered briefly, then shrugged it off.

Back to eating!

After his meal, following his usual routine, Lin Yu decided to head to the campus store to buy a drink and take a walk to aid digestion.

On his way to the store, he once again sensed that feeling of being watched. He instinctively looked back, but with the crowd behind him, it was impossible to pinpoint the source.

Scratching his bandaged head, Lin Yu decided not to dwell on those distractions.

Off to get a drink!

Exiting the store, Lin Yu headed towards the academic building.

On the way there, he passed through the bike shed area, a place not only for parking but also a notorious bullying hotspot.

Especially recently, the bullying had intensified, primarily linked to Tang Manman. Or more precisely, because of the purple-haired Gu Yue.

Following a public bullying incident involving her, the school’s administrators resolved to strictly enforce rules and disciplines.

The homework collection that morning was part of this new crackdown. Rumor had it that the school planned to drag not just the students but their parents to stand in the hallway as a punishment for not doing homework, forcing them to complete the assignments together.

But with so many students neglecting their homework, there simply wasn’t enough space in the hallway, let alone bringing in parents as well. Thus, the plan was abandoned.

Yet, focusing on homework was secondary. The school's primary goal was curbing the bullying. To this end, they installed surveillance cameras across campus, with staff monitoring around the clock, ready to expel anyone caught in the act.

Therefore, the bike shed area, beyond the camera's reach, became a prime bullying spot.

Lin Yu had no time or interest to intervene in these countless bullying incidents. Many weren’t as straightforward as they seemed. For instance, it might start with Student A bullying Student B, leading B to retaliate with help from an older sibling or friend. Was it bullying or vengeance?

Intervening without knowing the full story could mistakenly make you an accomplice to the aggressor and attract unnecessary trouble.

Feeling uneasy from that lingering sensation of being watched, Lin Yu quickened his pace, then suddenly turned to look back. Although he didn’t spot the observer, he did see a familiar yet timid figure resembling a certain Bull De Niu.
