Hawke and Gwen exchanged questions and answers.
Their tone was natural.
Their expressions were relaxed.
The two walked side by side toward the rest corridor as they talked.
Behind them Mary Jane's mouth was agape as wide as it could go.
Oh my god!
What did I miss this summer?
Peter was also a little dazed.
He felt like he understood something, but at the same time, he felt like he understood nothing.
Harry, on the other hand, looked at Mary Jane and tried to greet her.
Mary Jane was Peter's neighbor. Before he went to England, Mary Jane was sometimes present when he went to see Peter.
So Harry knew Mary Jane.
Harry thought for a moment, then patted Mary Jane on the shoulder.
"Hey, Mary, long time no see."
"...Hey, Harry."
Mary Jane turned around, glanced at Harry, gave a casual greeting, and then turned to Peter with a swift look: "Peter, do you know about this?"
Harry was stunned.
Wait, this reaction isn't right.
Is this how you'd react to seeing an old friend? It's too indifferent.
Peter was equally stunned.
He met Mary Jane's bright gaze and hesitated.
"What?"
"Gwen and Hawke."
Mary Jane tried her best to suppress the gossip in her tone and resist the urge to scream, and said urgently to Peter, "Aren't you Hawke's only friend at school? You should know, when did this happen?"
Peter was completely dumbfounded.
"When did I become Hawke's only..."
"Never mind, I can't be bothered to ask you."
Mary Jane looked at Peter's unconvincing answer, her curiosity completely overriding her reason, and said this directly before walking after Gwen, who had already walked ahead.
She intended to listen to the gossip up close.
But just then,Mary Jane suddenly stopped, as if she had thought of something, turned her head, and saw Harry, who was also looking bewildered and felt like he might become invisible.
The next second
"Ah!"
Mary Jane screamed after seeing clearly, quickly running to Harry and hugging the still sullen-looking boy. "Harry, Harry, when did you get back?"
Harry was overjoyed.
He looked at Mary Jane, who had just released him, and smiled, about to continue the conversation, when Mary Jane hugged him again. "I have something to do now, I can't talk to you anymore, see you later."
Clearly, at this moment, her best friend's return from England was less important than Mary's desire to get some gossip about her best friend and the school's coldest-faced guy.
Therefore, after saying that, Mary Jane turned around again, saw Gwen almost walking into the lounge corridor in the distance, and quickly ran after her.
Mary obviously couldn't chase after Hawke to ask about gossip.
So for the whole morning, Mary chased after Gwen, pleading with her.
The main idea was one thing:
"Please, tell me more, just more, more details, please, Gwen."
"..."
Because it was the first day of the new semester, things were a little more relaxed, and there weren't even any classes scheduled for today.
Everyone was busy with their own things, picking up their class schedules, or seeking advice from their advisors for their final semester.
Gwen was thoroughly annoyed by Mary all morning.
Finally, as they headed to the cafeteria, Gwen, seeing Mary still pitifully pleading beside her, eager to hear more gossip about her and Hawke's relationship, couldn't hold back any longer.
Gwen sighed.
"No, is it strange that I'm with Hawke?"

"Mmm."
"What's strange about it? Since ninth grade, I've been his deskmate in physics class, and we even had the same tutor."
''Come on, Gwen, that's Hawk."
"So?"
"You really don't know what people say about Hawk?"
"What?"
Now it was Gwen's turn to be curious.
Mary looked around and lowered her voice: "Everyone's saying that either Hawk is a pure, unadulterated straight man, or Hawk is gay."
Gwen rolled her eyes: "How could that be?"
She suddenly thought of Hawk standing in the water wearing only shorts at that waterfall in Maryland.
Gay?
Hawk is very straight.
As straight as a baton.
No.
What am I thinking?
Gwen shook her head, subconsciously shaking off the image of the baton in her mind, and then said to Mary seriously: "Hawk isn't gay."
Mary was stunned, then seemed to realize something and winked at Gwen.
Her smile became somewhat ambiguous.
"You've tried it?"
"..."
Gwen was stunned for a moment, then looked at the ambiguous smile on Mary's face and took a deep breath.
The next second,she turned and left without a word.
No wonder she studied dance.
So dirty.
Too dirty.
Mary watched Gwen walk away without a word and quickly chased after her.
"I'm sorry, Gwen, please forgive me."
"..."
When Hawke arrived at the dining hall, Mary was still trying to extract information from Gwen.
But Gwen ignored her.
Seeing that Gwen was immune to her pleas, Mary sighed, then saw Harry arriving at the dining hall with Peter.
Her eyes lit up instantly, and she said to Gwen beside her, "If you won't tell me, I'll go find Peter."
As she spoke, Mary Jane got up and, before Gwen could react, took her tray and ran to find Peter and Harry.
By the time Hawke sat down opposite Gwen with his tray, Mary Jane had already left.
"Mary's finished eating?"
"Obviously, she couldn't hear any gossip from me, so she went to find Peter."
Gwen glanced at Mary, who had already pulled Peter to sit down, and shook her head helplessly.
Hawke, hearing this, asked, somewhat puzzled, "What does this have to do with Peter?"
Gwen shrugged.
"Maybe because you and Peter spent time together in the old gym last semester, everyone thinks Peter is your friend this semester."
"...Okay."
Hawke chuckled after hearing this, but was too lazy to argue, and picked up the hamburger on his plate to eat.
Because she had arrived at the restaurant early, Gwen had already finished eating.
Gwen crossed her arms and leaned on the table, watching Hawke eating his hamburger.
"By the way, did you call Dr. Connors to thank him?"
"Yes, I did."
Hawke nodded, swallowed the hamburger, and then thought of something and said to Gwen, "When I called, Dr. Connors said it seemed there was a breakthrough in the experiment, and he sounded very happy."
Gwen blinked.
"Progress?"
"Impossible."
