It's 9 PM, and evening self-study ends.

Wang Peng started packing his schoolbag. "Mengjiao, let's go. Xiaojing, are you coming too?"

"You guys go first, I haven't finished my homework yet." Chen Xiaojing continued writing furiously.

"Wait a minute, why did you leave your homework so late?" Wang Peng said. "It's already dark, can't you go back by yourself?"

"I'll have Du Lei take me later." Chen Xiaojing still didn't look up.

Du Lei was a little confused, pointed to his nose, and looked completely innocent.

Li Mengjiao had already packed her schoolbag and walked out of the classroom with small, quick steps.

Wang Peng had no time to think and picked up his schoolbag to chase after her.

The two walked down from the teaching building, and Wang Peng rode his bicycle to take her back to Xiaowangzhuang.

Leave the main road and enter the dark alley.

"Mengjiao, Chen Xiaojing is acting strangely. Is there something shady going on between her and Du Lei?" Wang Peng then asked.

"You're the one who has things you can't show to anyone, and you're already talking about dating?" Li Mengjiao sneered.

"We're not dating, Li Mingzhu and I are just pen pals," Wang Peng said, both amused and exasperated.

Of course, there is romance involved, but that's someone from a past life whom I must marry in this one.

"Wang Peng, I'll call you big brother. Don't always think about dating. The most important thing for us is to study."

"Alright, girl, I understand all these big principles," Wang Peng said, both amused and exasperated.

“My studies won’t be affected, but you’re always daydreaming. Be careful it doesn’t affect your studies,” Wang Peng said with a smile.

"Wang Peng, do you think boys are smarter than girls? I've been working really hard, so why are my grades still not as good as yours?"
