3rd POV:

"Baby..you know i love you.."

The random girl Mu Qing cringed at earlier when he was walking down the hallways had pulled down her fake schoolgirl uniform, making it formal and non-revealing..still, it made Mu Qing's blood boil, it wasn't just the girl that was cringing him, it was the whole shit relationship..if killing wasn't a crime, he would've had 2 dead bodies by now. Mu Qing covered his ears.. trying to make him brain turn off to not hear the reply of the drug-addict looking guy that looked sleep deprived.

"Love you too honeypie, be my good girl tonight,hm?"

"They're both ugly..wow, matching."
Mu Qing spoke proudly in his head, having no regrets at all, rolling his eyes out of confidence. To be fair, it was true..the girl had damaged and dry hair from all the dyeing maybe? and her lipstick didn't really match her sharp-ish look..it was pink, fushia pink. The girl had.. decent features and terrible facial harmony, Mu Qing scoffed, pissed off at the girl for not even choosing colors that suit her..the boy on the other hand..had eyebags, one eye bigger than the other, he had those messy hairstyles that were popular back close to 40 years ago, It was okay but then again..it didn't match the face, both of them had terrible style, terrible looks, terrible personality, terrible relationship, TERRIBLE SMELL, TERRIBLE MAKEUP, TERRIBLE FUCKING RELATIONSHIP.

10 minutes later, the teacher arrived. A tall guy that looked okay, Mu Qing couldn't roast or judge him in his mind.

"Good morning class. No need for introduction, i know you all already. You kiddos can call me Mr. Pei."

The man introduced himself calmly, he paused. Somehow this man had an internal -dar thing..He looked at Mu Qing for a second, he was sure his gut was telling him that this guy had some secrets. Pei Ming sat down on the teacher's table.

"he seems like a chill teacher, at least."
Mu Qing thought before fixing up his posture to look at the board. He noticed the short stare but paid no mind to it

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Xie Lian?"
Mu Qing called out for his friend at the cafeteria as it was now lunchtime, he got no answer. He looked for his friend quietly, just to spot him with..a guy he wasn't in great terms with?.Mu Qing rolled his eyes. "That simp!-" he didn't want to cause trouble, he wasn't in the mood for any unnecessary arguments.. that'll just cause him stress and white hair which would cause him to look ugly. He cared about his appearance a lot, hence taking care of his body like a woman, skincare products and stuff, that's where 20% of his savings go.

He looked for another table, feeling a bit hurt that he wasn't able to have lunch with his closest and only friend..still, he knew that Xie Lian was pretty famous around and had many friends, so he couldn't just keep Xie Lian all to himself. He sat down on the free seat, taking out his lunchbox.

-

Mu Qing was in the middle of eating, all this time he didn't notice who was around him.
Not even halfway finished with his food it was shoved on his face by Feng Xin, who else would dare?
...
Mu Qing wasn't some highschool girl type that went emotionally unstable just because of one bad incident, he was more annoyed than hurt..he looked at his food on the floor, then to Feng Xin

"What the hell is your problem?"

Mu Qing stood up, pulling Feng Xin by the collar who was laughing. He didn't even wait for Feng Xin's reason, knowing that it would just be 'i wanted to' before punching him on the chest, thankfully..nobody saw him do so.

"Oh im so sorry miss stay beautiful, is your face too special? too bad it's ruined now."

Mu Qing rolled his eyes and cleaned his food off the floor, he didn't want to get in trouble for making a mess..that would be humiliating for him. "What a waste, if that bitch didn't have to mess with me I would've had a full stomach and a fine mood." He thought in his head..he promised himself that he'll be the best, he's done that before and is will to keep up, just to beat Feng Xin.

"Its not ruined, i just need to wash it dickhead."

He replied. Feng Xin just scoffed at him, the feeling was definitely mutual in wanting to kill eachother, He kicked Mu Qing's shin, knocking him down as revenge for being punched. Feng Xin had a larger and more manly body than Mu Qing, making him the stronger one..Mu Qing was surpassing him in grades. Feng Xin had a huge frown on his face after he got punched, he refuses to say that he was inferior of Mu Qing..then that started the whole rivalry between them.

Mu Qing left to go to the bathroom, he just washed his face to make him look presentable for the next two subjects..He wanted to go home already.

---

3 hours later, all classes were done.

"Thank the Lord.."

Mu Qing spoke to himself, he was lonely anyway and there was no one to see him..Xie Lian seemed busy with the guy in red, he'd always known that Xie Lian was a homosexual so he wasn't surprised at all.
His stomach grumbled, He walked to the path  towards his house, In short..he ignored his hunger, not wanting to waste money.

Feng Xin POV:

"Knowing that dumbass, he'd probably go home with an empty fucking stomach just because he doesn't want to waste money..pft, he would only waste his money on stupid beauty products.. what's even so special about them? sure Mu Qing looks really neat and well managed, his hair always looks soft, his skin flawless..but that's all there is to it, nothing more.."

Wait..go home with an empty stomach..shit that might just worsen his current health. Maybe don't do that again next time Feng Xin, you guys are only rivals and not enemies that try to murder each other literally..

Why do I keep talking to myself in my head..maybe I could just communicate better in here. Oh well..how could i make it up to him?..think think..i can't tell him that im below him, that shit would tell him that he won..maybe treat him for food? low chance..but might work..okay that's plan A..plan B is to force him..plan C is to apologize..bullshit! I forgot that this motherfucker had terrible mental health despite his attitude. I guess i am His rival, but  i could say that i know a lot about him. One thing was he hated opening up to others, or showing weakness. If Mu Qing ever got misunderstood, he'd just accept his fate..why is he so brainless!?!

3rd POV:

Feng Xin continued to cuss at Mu Qing's stupidity, he should've predicted the future that Mu Qing would skip his hunger..why can't his rival take care of his mental health more than his appearance? Mu Qing's good things are only appearance and grades. Feng Xin could tell that Mu Qing was just being forced to do this, most obviously because of their rivaly that seemingly never ends.
Whenever Mu Qing and Feng Xin were together, no conversation could pass without them two bickering with eachother.

They argued every-single-day even through the phone, in all communication apps, but despite that they hate eachother to the core, they couldn't leave eachother without worrying in their own way..both wouldn't make it obvious that they were worried about the other since they didn't want to ease down the rivalry or get teased with enemies to lovers booktrope, which was currently well known with book-lovers..Mu Qing, Feng Xin, both have made sure that they were as straight as a pen.
