Reborn and awakened, this time I won't be a love-struck fool.

Lin Wu felt even more depressed.

It's like punching cotton – a feeling of utter helplessness.

She held a page in her hand and said, "My mom said that if I do well on the midterm exams, she'll take me to the aquarium. So I need to study hard and strive for improvement."

Song Shibai: "Oh, I see."

He lowered his head and took a bite of the steamed bun, then thought for a moment and realized something was wrong. "Wait a minute, you've been to the aquarium so many times before, didn't you say you were already tired of it?"

Lin Wu: "…………"

In fact, she was just making things up and deliberately saying it to Xu Jing to misunderstand.

She paused for a moment, then said, "This time is different."

Song Shibai: "How is it different?"

"My mom isn't going this time," Lin Wu suddenly raised her voice and said. "This time, Mom said she wants me to go alone, and I can bring my best friend along."

"I see." Song Shibai understood, then asked, "So, who are you planning to take with you?"

"Of course it's my good friend, Bo Shan is definitely going." Lin Wu said, arms crossed. "Whoever performs better, you or Xie Yanhuai, I'll take them."

Song Shibai glanced at Xie Yanhuai, whose seat was on the other side of the classroom, far away, and he couldn't hear them talking.

He still instinctively said, "Can't I bring both?"

"Mom only gave me three tickets," Lin Wu said, her eyes still fixed on Xu Jingwang. "If both of you go, I won't be able to bring anyone else."

"Isn't that perfect?"

Song Shibai asked, "Or are you bringing other people along?"

Lin Wu pursed her lips.

Her fingers rubbed the corner of the page back and forth, until they curled up from her torment.

Her tone was fierce, but she was actually offering a way out, "Hey, are you going or not?"

Names and surnames will not be mentioned.

Song Shibai subconsciously looked at Xu Jingwang.

"I'm not going."

Very cold and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

Lin Wu pursed her lips, "Go if you want, or don't. It's fine if a few of us go."

She felt even worse now, so bad that she felt like crying.

Today is the saddest day for Lin Wu since she started school.

After finishing their exercises during the long break, a few of them gathered together to play "Eagle Catches Chickens".

Tan Sui quietly leaned close to Lin Wu's ear and asked, "Hey, why did Xu Jingwang go back?"

Lin Wu followed her gaze and saw the people at the entrance of the teaching building.

"Why are you asking me?" Lin Wu said. "I'm not surnamed Xu."

Tan Sui immediately understood, "Oh~ you two had a fight."

"No," Lin Wu said, arms crossed. "I'm not going to argue with such an annoying guy."

Tan Sui nodded in deep agreement, "He really is quite annoying."

She held up three fingers. "It's been three semesters, and I've written down my QQ number for him countless times, but he still refuses to add me. It's an absolute disgrace."

Lin Wu gave her a strange look. "If someone doesn't want to add it, they can't. Is that their fault?"

Tan Sui: "Pah!"

She cursed and decided to stay away from Lin Wu.

Lin Wu could only cling to the thin fir.

Bo Shan patiently let her pester him.

The group played until class started before they dispersed.

The warm sun at the end of October was still quite strong. Lin Wu ran around wildly during a break, her forehead covered in sweat.

She rummaged through her bag, but couldn't find any wet wipes, so she instinctively barked, "Woof..."

It stopped after just one word.

She bit her lip in regret and poked Song Shibai's back. "Give me a wet wipe."

"Give."

Song Shibai sweated even more than she did.

The day passed quickly, and Lin Wu returned home listlessly with her schoolbag on her back.

She had a simple dinner and then went to Boshan's house.

When she arrived, Lin Ying was arguing with Song Shibai.

"You're talking nonsense. I don't stink."

"It stinks, it stinks even worse than poop," Lin Ying said angrily.

It's that familiar topic again.

Lin Wu looked around, and when she didn't see anyone familiar, she froze and subconsciously looked at Bo Shan.

Bo Shan said, "He messaged me saying he's not coming."

Lin Wu said sullenly, "Oh."

In fact, Xu Jingwang usually only had more contact with Song Shibai, since they were related by blood.

He joined this group because Lin Wu dragged him there.

Now that he has fallen out with Lin Wu, it is naturally not appropriate for him to come back.

Han Qi turned to Song Shibai and Xie Yanhuai and started talking about the games they had been playing recently. The two of them did their homework while chatting.

Bo Shan handed Lin Wu a box of freshly baked cookies.

Lin Wu happily took a bite. It contained chocolate chips and cranberries, and tasted sweet and sour, but Lin Wu felt a bit depressed.

She wanted to reconcile and reminisce about the old days.

But I can't bear to lose face.

She clearly offered a way out this morning.

However, Xu Jingwang had no intention of coming down and refused outright, making her lose face.

It seems he doesn't care at all.

In his heart, he probably only regarded her as a good friend who was slightly better than a regular friend.

While she's feeling sad and down here, the other person might not care at all and is happily doing their own thing.

Perhaps he had already found her annoying.

Lin Wu angrily wrote a single character, its force penetrating the paper.

Bo Shan glanced at her. "There's juice in the fridge, want some?"

"Drink!" Lin Wu put down her pen and said, "I'll get it myself!!!"

Their cold war lasted for half a month.

No one paid any attention to anyone else.

Every time the teacher asked them to have a group discussion in class, the two of them would have a cold, poker face, neither of them would look at the other or say a word.

Two weeks later, the whole class knew that they had broken up.

After the midterm exam results were released, Ms. Yan held a meeting with the class leaders.

Finally, he let everyone else go first, while Lin Wu stayed behind.

Lin Wu, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong?"

Ms. Yan sighed. "It's like this, I've heard quite a bit about what happened between you and Xu Jingwang. His grades are very stable this time, still first place, and you've also made great progress. I didn't originally plan to separate you two, but if you have conflicts, it's not suitable for you to be deskmates..."

Lin Wu panicked a little, "Teacher, are you... planning to transfer us to another class?"

"Yes." Teacher Yan stared at her, "But we need to ask both of your opinions first."

Lin Wu pursed her lips.

Since becoming deskmates with Xu Jingwang, she has never changed deskmates again.

I'm already used to it.

The class is having self-study at this time.

Song Shibai's deskmate is the vice class monitor.

Song Shibai muttered under his breath, "Why hasn't Lin Wu come back?"

My deskmate replied, "It seems like Teacher Yan has something to ask her."

The person in the back row paused while writing.

Ten minutes later, Lin Wu finally returned. She walked to Xu Jingwang's side, but this time she didn't go straight in. Instead, she paused and said, "Teacher Yan wants you to go to her office."

Xu Jingwang put down his pen. "Okay."

This was the first time they had spoken in the past two weeks.

……

Xu Jingwang pushed open the office door.

Teacher Yan was staring at the computer screen, which displayed the seating chart.
