The literature class hums with quiet focus until a crumpled paper arcs through the air, landing squarely on Ren Shuyang’s desk. The teacher intervenes, demanding he remove his yellow beanie for uniform compliance. As he hesitantly pulls it off, a small, vibrant plant sprouts from his scalp, instantly blooming into red peppers of irritation. The classroom erupts in cruel laughter, labels of 'freak' and 'monster' flying. Shuyang shrinks back, eyes downcast, while you watches from the sidelines, heart pounding, unsure whether to intervene or look away.
