065 The Melon-Seed-Eating Spectator
In Wang Heng’s mind, if he were to rank the four girls who had sent him to his yandere ending by their danger level, the least threatening would undoubtedly be Pei Ningle, followed by Lu Qi. Han Yixuan and Ye Xun, who had yet to appear in the second timeline, were tied for first.
In the first timeline, before Han Yixuan joined the battlefield of love, Wang Heng had only suffered from frequent headaches, with no threat to his life. But after Han Yixuan returned to his side, the conflicts began to intensify… This made him have to be on guard.
At the moment he saw the incoming call, the class meeting was in progress, and it was really inconvenient to answer the phone. So Wang Heng rejected the call and sent a text message: 【In a meeting.】
Less than ten seconds later, the other party replied: 【Okay, I’ll wait for you.】
After that, Wang Heng didn’t go up to the podium to volunteer for any more tasks, nor did he care much about who was elected as a class officer. Could the academic committee member or the life committee member be more important than this?
After a few rounds of voting, Teacher Liu announced, “Our first class committee has been decided. You can start your work later. At the end of the month, our school will hold a welcome party for you freshmen. If any students have a special talent, such as singing or dancing, you can sign up. Organizing students and liaising with the student union will be the responsibility of our class officers from now on.”
“Understood!” Among all the students, Sun Xingsi’s declaration of determination was particularly loud.
“Then the meeting is now adjourned.”
Wang Heng was just waiting for Teacher Liu to say ‘adjourned’.
Before the other students could get up, he had already walked out of the classroom, taken out his phone, and dialed Han Yixuan’s number.
The call connected, but both of them were silent for a long while.
Finally, Wang Heng broke the silence. “May I ask what you need?”
Han Yixuan asked faintly, “Are we being so formal?”
Wang Heng: “Sorry, I didn’t think too much about it. I was just asking casually—”
“Can we still be friends?”
Han Yixuan suddenly interrupted, catching him off guard.
Wang Heng thought for a moment. “Yes, we can be friends.”
“That’s great, heehee…” From the other end of the line came the girl’s light laughter, as crisp as a silver bell.
And then she hung up.
Wang Heng looked at the call log, which was less than half a minute long, completely bewildered.
What did Han Yixuan mean by that call?
He could never have imagined that in a pavilion less than fifty meters away, Han Yixuan was staring at him.
The girl was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, and was holding a pair of binoculars, so her face couldn’t be seen. And she had specially chosen a suitable location, using the lush green belt as cover, so she could see Wang Heng’s movements clearly, while Wang Heng couldn’t discover her at all. And with the binoculars, the girl could even see the bewildered expression on his face.
“This is really interesting… I suddenly feel like I’ve become a perverted stalker.” Han Yixuan muttered, then suddenly laughed.

In dorm 414, the hamster opened its cage.
The small door of the cage could hold an ordinary hamster, but not it. With a little force, it could exert a strength far beyond that of an ordinary hamster, easily lift the small door, and then nimbly squeeze out.
The cage was always placed on Wang Heng’s desk. There was a certain height from the desktop to the floor, but it was no obstacle for this Spacetime Administrator.
It first jumped onto the chair, then slid down the chair leg, its movements as smooth as parkour.
Stepping onto the floor, the hamster first walked a few steps on its hind legs, but felt that it was not quite right, so it lay down and returned to its normal four-legged walking posture. Then, it heard a slightly threatening…
“Meow!”
The hamster turned its head and glanced at the cat, its small, mung bean-like eyes filled with deep contempt.
Because there was no one in the dormitory, it simply started to speak human language. “What do you want, you little kitten? If you really want to die, be quick about it. Don’t sharpen your claws at me.”
Before being brought back by Tang Hexing, the little white cat had long been accustomed to humans and the sound of human speech—although it couldn’t understand it. For an animal smaller than itself to be able to make a human-like sound was a bit scary for a cat.
Seeing the little white cat frozen in fear, the hamster snorted and continued to walk forward.
The dormitory door was closed, but how could that stop a Spacetime Administrator?
It leaped up, its small body landing right on the doorknob. With a twist, the door opened. Landing back on the floor, it nimbly squeezed through the small gap.
However, just as the Spacetime Administrator was about to head to its destination, it heard a “creak” from behind. Looking back, it saw the little white cat following closely behind, squeezing out from the door and pushing it even wider.
Leaving the door open like this was too obvious. The hamster looked around. No one had noticed this side yet, but what if the door was left open? Several future possibilities had already flashed through its mind, all of them anomalies caused by the door of dorm 414 not being closed.
“I really can’t do anything with you, you idiot. You even need me to clean up your mess!”
The little hamster was very dissatisfied, but it could only turn back to close the door and then leave.
Logically speaking, it wouldn’t be able to get in itself this way. But again, as a Spacetime Administrator, there were naturally ways to get around a mere door.
As for that stupid cat? Well… if it couldn’t get back in, it couldn’t get back in. What did that have to do with the great Administrator? It was the one who had insisted on following. And looking at all the future possibilities, this stupid cat would eventually return to that Tang Hexing’s side anyway. It wouldn’t have any impact.
The little hamster sprinted to the top of the stairs and jumped down step by step with agile, parkour-like movements, at a very fast speed. In less than a minute, it had reached the first floor and run out of the dormitory building.
Throughout the entire process, no one saw it.
The reason it chose this time to break out was because it had calculated that there would be no witnesses at this moment. Even the dorm auntie was busy watching a drama. And after running out of the dormitory building, it was even harder to be noticed since it was already dark outside.
The hamster ran out of the dormitory area and came to a certain teaching building. It turned its head, and that little white cat was still following behind, step by step, like a newly recruited underling.
The white cat’s gaze was full of confusion and curiosity.
“…Be curious if you want. It has nothing to do with me.”
The hamster found a suitable corner, no longer looking at the little cat beside it, and began to watch the two people not far away with great interest. From where it was, it could see the bewildered Wang Heng who had just finished his call, and the stalker-like Han Yixuan with her binoculars.
It adjusted its posture, sat down steadily, and spat out the melon seeds stored in its cheek pouches.
After spending a lot of time and effort to finally get to such an excellent front-row seat, what should it do?
Of course, eat melon seeds and watch the show.
The hamster swung its two little feet, held a melon seed in its two front paws and gnawed on it, looked at the young man and woman, and couldn’t help but exclaim:
“Tsk, these melon seeds are really delicious!”
