Chapter 13: Three Steps Laugh Two Steps

"If I'm hungry, then I'm hungry. Why are you shouting?"

Liu Meilan came out of the room and glanced at Xin Tianyi.

She didn't want to do more, nor did she want Xin Tianyi to eat this snack, so she walked over and took Wang Mingjie's backpack and said, "Go in and change your clothes first, then we'll talk."

"I'm hungry." Wang Mingjie said seriously, "Why change clothes? I'll go to sleep right after eating."

"Just go if I tell you to!" Liu Meilan rolled her eyes at him and pushed him into the bedroom.

Seeing this, Xin Tianyi said good night to Xie Mei and returned to his room.

A staccato voice came from next door, as if someone was covering their mouth and saying, "It's just an egg."

"Then I don't want to do it either...eat and drink for free..."

After hearing these words, Xin Tianyi closed the door, turned off the lights and went to bed.

When going to school in the morning, I saw Bai Xue on campus. Bai Xue was holding something and running towards Xin Tianyi.

"Tianyi, I brought you your school uniform." When they got closer, Bai Xue could see that it was a school uniform. She handed the top one to Xin Tianyi, "This is yours."

Xin Tianyi quickly took it and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. I got mine anyway, and since you hadn't gotten yours yet, I signed and got yours too. By the way, the Academic Affairs Office told you to try it on right away, and if it doesn't fit, you need to exchange it. Why don't you go home and try it on at noon?"

Xin Tianyi thought for a moment and said, "How about going to the restroom to change? If it doesn't fit, just send it over directly. Otherwise, it will be delayed until the afternoon."

Bai Xue said, "That's fine. Let's go and try it together."

The two went to the toilet together.

There were very few people coming to school in the morning, and even fewer people in the toilet.

Xin Tianyi hung Bai Xue's schoolbag on himself and helped her hold the school uniform. "You try it on first, I'll hold it for you."

Bai Xue smiled at her and said, "Thank you."

Bai Xue changed into her school uniform, and then Xin Tianyi changed too. They looked at each other. Bai Xue's school uniform was just the right size, but Xin Tianyi's was a little too big for him.

"Yours is a bit too big." Bai Xue suggested, "It's better to change to a size smaller. You'll only wear it for half a year anyway, and then you'll stop wearing it."

"Forget it, I won't change it." Xin Tianyi looked at the school uniform on his body, "Let's leave it this way. I like wide and big ones, and they're not much bigger."

"Okay then." Bai Xue said, and prepared to take off her school uniform.

Xin Tianyi looked at her and asked, "Change it back?"

"Yeah, the clothes haven't been washed yet. Wear them after washing them." Bai Xue had already changed the top back into her own clothes.

After Bai Xue finished changing, she asked Xin Tianyi in surprise, "You're not going to change?"

"I won't change it. It's too troublesome." Xin Tianyi said, "This braid is so annoying. It gets loose every time I change it, and I have to tie it again."

"Then just tie it again. It looks so messy and ugly." Bai Xue said to Xin Tianyi with a smile.

Xin Tianyi is not a person who cares about details. His main concern is freedom.

She was free to wear clothes and to style her hair. In her previous life, she had never bought a pair of high heels, claiming that she also wanted freedom for her feet.

Just like her temperament in this life, her life will not be disturbed by these insignificant little things.

But Bai Xue is different.

She had already stuffed her school uniform into her bag and started to braid her hair again.

Bai Xue is different from Xin Tianyi, she has two pigtails.

One thick black line hangs down on each side of the chest.

When she was changing clothes just now, the zipper on her school uniform got caught on her hair, messing up several strands. Bai Xue touched her braid all the way down and actually touched the tangled part. She naturally began to unpick the braid and then braid it up bit by bit.

Xin Tianyi was stunned watching from the side.

Because they don't braid their hair standing still, but walk while they do it. With deft movements of their hands, half of the braid is done in an instant.

“Yoho!”

A cheer came from somewhere, and Xin Tianyi looked over immediately.

At the corner of the third floor, several heads immediately shrank back, and then laughter and whistles were heard one after another.

"Shameless!" Xin Tianyi cursed inwardly.

Bai Xue didn't take it seriously. She braided her hair and said with a smile, "Why bother with them?"

"Whistling in school," Xin Tianyi said. "How uncultured."

Bai Xue was used to this kind of thing, so she just smiled and said, "Your hair is messy too, tie it up again."

Xin Tianyi touched it casually and found it was true.

Seeing that she was too lazy to tie it again, Bai Xue could only hold out her hand and said, "How about I help you?"

"I'll do it myself." Xin Tianyi quickly tied her hair up again, and then thought to herself that she must cut her hair.

The two went to try on the school uniforms, and when they returned to the classroom, almost everyone was there.

Class monitor Wei Ran was writing something on the blackboard. Xin Tianyi took a look and saw that it was the answers to last night's math test paper.

Xin Tianyi quickly returned to his seat and took out his math homework.

Wei Ran turned around and said, "The first math class teacher is attending a teaching observation, so we're all studying on our own. I've written the answers to the math test papers on the blackboard. Everyone can exchange their tests with their deskmates and correct each other's mistakes. After correcting, check the answers on your own. After class, the math class representative will collect the tests."

Wei Ran said this to Xin Tianyi. It was obvious that he had said it once just now. When he saw Xin Tianyi and Bai Xue arrived, he said it again.

Xin Tianyi smiled gratefully at Wei Ran, then took the math test paper and exchanged it with his deskmate Yuan Dabao.

Yuan Dabao lay on the table, without looking at the blackboard, and just gave Xin Tianyi a pat on the back of his head, obviously not wanting to exchange.

Xin Tianyi could only call him softly: "Yuan Dabao, it's time to change the test paper."

After being called three times, Yuan Dabao finally sat up straight.

He took out a math test paper from his schoolbag and handed it to Xin Tianyi impatiently: "Can't you come a little earlier?"

Xin Tianyi smiled apologetically and said, "I'll definitely come earlier next time."

Yuan Dabao took Xin Tianyi's math paper and glanced through it before snorting, "This doesn't look very good. The last big question only took two steps? Zhang Yang can even write three!"

The author has something to say:

There will be another update in the evening.
