Having been given a second chance at life, who would still want to pursue her?

The students in the class, who had initially been watching Chen Jianji make a fool of himself, were now watching him make a fool of himself.

Everyone turned to look at Zhang Xinyi.

They seemed to be anticipating her reaction.

Feeling the gazes coming from all around.

Swish it!

Zhang Xinyi's ear tips turned red.

"What...what are you doing?!"

She cursed under her breath.

Chen Jianji stood still, still holding the bag of snacks in his hand.

"Didn't you say you didn't know him?"

"Young Miss, please do me the honor of accepting this; it will be considered that we've become acquainted."

"My foot is still injured, I can't hold on for much longer."

"What does this have to do with me?!"

Zhang Xinyi spat, but when she looked down, she saw the bandage wrapped around Chen Jianji's right calf.

There was also a faint smell of liniment.

"This is such a hassle, never mind!"

Zhang Xinyi impatiently turned her head away, refusing to look at Chen Jianji's smug face, and reached out to take the snacks from his hand.

"What kind of snack is this? And it has such an awful name like 'Shrimp and Egg'."

"Does this even have shrimp or eggs? You have the nerve to give me this substandard, counterfeit product that doesn't match the description."

She muttered a low, sarcastic remark, but her hands kept unpacking the packaging.

"Hiss~!"

Upon witnessing this scene, the entire class gasped in shock.

"Seriously? We were just at loggerheads, and things have calmed down already?"

"You make it sound so easy, but you'd have to have Brother Ji's thick skin to do that."

"Exactly! If it were you, and a new classmate yelled at you, wouldn't you have slunk away crying?"

"Bullshit, who ran away crying?!"

"But to be honest, not everyone has a childhood sweetheart like the class monitor, so it's impossible to win her over."

"If this new classmate were to face an offensive like that from Brother Ji, he'd probably have a hard time holding his own."

......

Lin Qingxue, who was receiving the third row of assignments, stood still.

Chen Jianji's self-introduction was still echoing in her ears.

The memory of their first meeting gradually surfaced in Lin Qingxue's mind.

[Hello Qingxue, my name is Chen Jianji. My parents raise chickens, and Jianji means that all the chickens in our family, including myself, will be healthy!]

[My home is in a town about ten miles away, isn't that close to you?]

[Don't be so serious, I have some food here, do you want some?]

......

The boy's bright and enthusiastic smile still seems so vivid in my mind.

His eyes were fixed on me, with undisguised arrogance and an unruly smile.

He is like this right now.

It is unpleasant and disgusting.

It's...

It makes me angry just looking at it.

Bang!

Lin Qingxue stepped forward and, expressionless, snatched the notebook from the student who was frantically copying homework until the last second.

The student behind him felt a jolt of fear and hastily finished his work.

Just as I was about to breathe a sigh of relief after barely finishing copying the last question, I picked up my notebook and handed it in.

Lin Qingxue, however, was carrying a thick stack of notebooks that she had carefully put away. She didn't even glance at him and walked straight past him.

The man's hand holding the notebook was still suspended in mid-air, and the wind created by the man's rapid passing made his hair disheveled.

He froze in place.

Why not accept his offer?

Even more stunned than him was the person whose notebook had just been taken from him.

Why didn't you accept him?!

......

the other side.

Chen Jianji was still joking with Zhang Xinyi, whose attitude remained the same but had obviously softened.

"Even though it's not what you expected, it's actually quite delicious."

"Tch, junk food."

"You want to eat it? The convenience store at your school in the city doesn't sell it yet."

"Pshaw, this kind of substandard product wouldn't even be allowed into my school!"

"Oh right, just tell me if it's delicious or not."

...

Zhang Xinyi took a bite.

The sweet and spicy sensation filled her taste buds.

She looked at the thing in her hand with some surprise.

Then, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of Chen Jianji's face, which seemed to be smiling but wasn't.

Zhang Xinyi blushed, then forced herself to remain calm.

"Well... it's just so-so!"

Just as Chen Jianji was about to speak with a smile.

Sudden.

A cold voice came from the side.

"Homework is due."

Chen Jianji and Zhang Xinyi were both slightly taken aback.

Both of them turned their heads to look at it.

It is Lin Qingxue.

"laugh."

Zhang Xinyi pursed her lips and habitually scoffed.

Chen Jianji looked up at the person in front of him who was holding a thick stack of exercise books, and frowned.

"I've put it on the table, you can go and get it."

Lin Qingxue's cold face showed no emotion; she simply spoke softly.

"Your desk is too messy, I couldn't find it."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianji narrowed his eyes slightly, just as he was about to speak again.

Zhang Xinyi chewed on a shrimp and tore off an egg, looking somewhat impatient.

"Alright, stop blocking my way. You're all sweaty and stinky."

Chen Jianji's expression froze.

He is prone to sweating, and since it's summer and the classroom only has a few fans running, he naturally sweated quite a bit.

But it shouldn't smell too strongly of sweat.

Clearly, this girl is picking a fight with me again.

"Fine, you decide."

Chen Jianji gave her a thumbs up.

Then he got up and brushed past Lin Qingxue.

Lin Qingxue didn't turn around to look at him, her cold eyes fixed on Zhang Xinyi, who was almost finished with her snacks.

"Cough...cough..."

"This product, which has no manufacturer, product information, or production date, is also a bit spicy. It's so annoying; it almost made me choke."

Zhang Xinyi coughed twice and quickly took out her water bottle from her schoolbag in the drawer.

He gulped down a few mouthfuls.

That made me feel much better.

After Zhang Xinyi put down the kettle, she realized that Lin Qingxue was still there.

The two of them locked eyes.

"What's up? Is there something else?"

Zhang Xinyi's tone was impatient.

Lin Qingxue's eyes flickered slightly as she slowly spoke.

"The teacher just asked me to order a school uniform for you. If you have time, just give me the size and the cost of the uniform."

"Okay, I understand."

Zhang Xinyi mimicked her tone and coldly retorted.

He then shrugged and chuckled.

Lin Qingxue frowned, thinking she was unhappy about buying school uniforms.

"Although you will only be studying here for about half a month until the college entrance examination, you don't feel a sense of belonging to the school."

"But students should look like students, and wearing school uniforms helps to maintain a unified image and manage students."

"I believe your school in Haicheng should be even stricter in this regard."

She stopped talking.

Because Zhang Xinyi's impatient expression was quite obvious.

"I think you should listen to what others have to say."

After Lin Qingxue finished speaking, she turned to leave.

Zhang Xinyi watched her retreating figure and scoffed coldly.

Who would listen to someone who starts off by speaking coldly and lecturing?

She's not like Chan Kin-kei, who's crazy and likes to fawn over someone who doesn't reciprocate.

Thinking of this person.

Zhang Xinyi couldn't help but look at Chen Jianji, who was about to return to his seat.

I recalled his actions just now.

Zhang Xinyi couldn't help but spit out another light spit.

"That's insane."

Then, she glanced at Lin Qingxue's retreating figure as she walked back to her seat.

Zhang Xinyi's eyes shifted slightly.

He then shouted at Chen Jianji.

"That guy."

A crisp, melodious sound echoed in the classroom.

Almost everyone looked at her.

Even Lin Qingxue stopped in her tracks, but didn't look back.

Chen Jianji also looked at her, pointed to himself, and asked.

"Did you call me?"

Zhang Xinyi tilted her head slightly.

"Didn't you want to add contact information?"

Chen Jianji looked at her holding up the phone with the pink cartoon case and couldn't help but say speechlessly.

"You were the one who kicked me out, and now you want me to join?"

"Do you want it or not?"

The pink cartoon phone wobbled, and the metal logo of the bitten apple seemed to gleam in the sunlight.

Chen Jianji rubbed his forehead.

Fine, I'll tolerate you this much.

But just as he was about to get up...

Bang!

A soft sound.

Lin Qingxue sat down in her seat.

The chair was placed so far back that even moving the table behind it wouldn't allow them to get out.

Chen Jianji looked at her, somewhat puzzled.

Lin Qingxue stared blankly at the blackboard in front of her and said calmly.

"Recess is over, class is about to start."

......
