Chapter 231: Famous Alumnus Senior Lin Tian
Before Lin Tian and Gan Yan Yu could snap back to reality, a group of students walking toward the school nearby began to chatter.
“Has this banner really been up for half a month without coming down?”
“Come on, don’t be ridiculous! Have you seen if Moonlight and that Cat still recognize your school? They might not even show up for the college entrance exam!”
“LOL! What does it matter if they won a championship? Does our school even teach cello or piano?”
“Not to mention actually meeting Senior Lin Tian and Senior Gan Yan Yu in person would feel like a dream come true!”
“I heard a bunch of outsiders have been coming to our school just to check out Senior Lin Tian’s seat for a photo op.”
“…”
They’re really taking selfies now?!
A bad feeling crept into Lin Tian’s mind. He turned to Gan Yan Yu, gripping her shoulder seriously.
“Teacher Gan, the plan has changed.”
“Hmm?”
“Put this on first!”
Lin Tian pulled out two masks from his bag.
If they didn’t do this, getting through the school gate to the classroom was going to be a gamble.
“Oh, okay.”
Gan Yan Yu was quite used to this kind of disguise and donned the mask, as they both stepped onto the school grounds.
Two whole months without feeling the breeze of campus life; returning as a student felt surprisingly pleasant.
Walking across the playground, Lin Tian enjoyed the gentle winds brushing against him.
Once upon a time, Lin Tian was just a model student who didn’t care about anything outside of studying and part-time jobs.
Now, as a high school student, he was doing everything except studying.
This fun didn’t last long though.
At the entrance of the teaching building, he noticed a group of students gathered around a poster.
Curiosity piqued, Lin Tian moved in for a closer look and, lo and behold—he found himself at the center of attention.
The poster had a bright headline:
[Famous Alumnus: Lin Tian
Renowned pianist and composer of Tianchao, created numerous outstanding works during his senior year at Qingzhou No. 7 High School, including “E minor Cello Concerto” and the “Spanish Bullfighting Song”! ]
Lin Tian’s student photo was boldly displayed, including a resume detailing his achievements.
It was right at the entrance of the senior classroom, the most eye-catching spot!
Every senior student returning to class had to see it.
Lin Tian had officially become one of only two students in the history of Qingzhou No. 7 High School to be featured on the alumni board before graduation.
The other one was—Gan Yan Yu.
Teacher Gan’s poster was just a few meters away from Lin Tian’s.
She had a crowd around her too.
Her page was filled with various accolades.
Compared to that, being the top scorer in the 2025 Qingjiang Provincial Music Unified Examination seemed trivial!
At this time, there was still a bit of a gap before early study began.
A lot of students had gathered by the two posters, doing what many Qingzhou No. 7 students love most—reminiscing about their “Moonlight and Cat” encounters, commonly known as bragging.
“Ah! I remember during finals, I was lucky enough to share an exam hall with Senior Lin Tian; he was sitting right in front of me! He was SO handsome!”
A boy sighed dramatically facing his friend’s phone camera.
Nearby classmates quickly shot him envious glances.
Don’t underestimate such a memory; it was enough for this guy to make a TikTok that could last over ten minutes — guaranteed audience!
Such was the current heat around Moonlight and Cat on TikTok.
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
Another classmate quickly interjected dismissively, “I went to the restaurant where Lin Tian worked! He personally took my order! Who else is getting that kind of treatment?”
His words drew gasps of jealousy from the group.
“d*mn! That’s unfair; that’s seriously impressive!”
“That’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience!”
“I’ll never get Lin Tian to serve me once in my life.”
The student speaking puffed up his chest, soaking in the compliments.
“…”
However, amidst everyone’s awe…
A bespectacled boy in the crowd simply adjusted his glasses and said, “You guys… can’t even compare!”
Everyone turned their attention to him, wears puzzled expressions.
Wait, even being served by Moonlight isn’t enough?
What, did you sleep with him?
The glasses guy calmly continued, “Once, while I was in the restroom, I had the honor of standing next to Senior Lin Tian at the urinal.”
“When he unzipped his pants, I accidentally caught a glimpse…”
At this point, all the students held their breath, eyes wide in shock.
The glasses boy revealed a devout look, saying earnestly, “Have you ever… seen the real Dragon?”
Suddenly, the crowd exploded with unparalleled fervor, everyone got hyped up!
What a weirdo!!
Lin Tian couldn’t take it anymore. He grabbed Gan Yan Yu’s hand and headed upstairs.
So everything online about fame was true.
Once you’re famous, all sorts of ridiculous things from your past are unearthed.
Fortunately, Lin Tian had kept a low profile in school, so there weren’t many skeletons in his closet.
Getting exposed like this was already light!
“…”
When they returned to the senior floor.
By this time, with the early class bell ringing, thankfully, there weren’t many students acting up.
After all, seniors were busier with upcoming finals and didn’t have time for silly TikTok antics like the younger kids.
Lin Tian finally relaxed and took off his mask.
He and Gan Yan Yu parted ways, with him heading toward Class A.
Just as he approached the door, a ruckus erupted from inside the classroom.
“Su Ran, I’ve told you several times now, can you PLEASE stop using that cutesy voice in your videos? It’s so disgusting! Do you really like acting all flirty with guys that much?”
“What I like is none of your business! Who are you to call me flirty? Who do you think you are to define us girls!”
“Gag! A chicken is still a chicken, no matter how colorful the feathers!”
“…”
It was hard to imagine such a conversation happening in a senior class, coming from two high school students.
Lin Tian stood in the hallway, dumbfounded.
Two classmates near the window, wearing an ‘I-love-this-drama’ expression, said, “Oh boy, they’re at it again.”
“What kind of girl can tolerate being called a chicken every day by a guy?”
“Xu Yong is something else. He gets called a smelly dude daily and doesn’t even bat an eye. I’m starting to lose my crush on Su Ran, she used to be my goddess.”
“The best part is they fight every day, but it doesn’t stop them from walking home together. How wild is that?”
“…”
As they were caught up in their chat, they turned and caught Lin Tian eavesdropping.
Just as one of them was about to tease him, the other’s eyes went wide.
“Whoa, it’s Lin Tian!”
