Chapter 31 is about someone she might have forgotten.

It was her?

This time, Ning Yanzhao had only been in the world for a short time when she unexpectedly met the person she hadn't seen for nine years. The girl she had hurriedly bumped into outside was also the person she had seen at An Nianyu's funeral. Unexpectedly, she was also a student at No. 1 High School and even in the same class as An Nianyu. However, she had never paid attention to her before and had no memory of seeing her at school.

She had actually appeared nine years ago, but Ning Yanzhao didn't know her and forgot about her. Or was it because of a change in fate that she appeared here for the first time, just like how she had influenced Xu Yongqing by attending the full moon celebration on a whim?

However, it's quite normal that so many students at No. 1 High School haven't seen it before.

Regardless, Ning Yanzhao still needs to go back to class for the time being, as there are some things that need to be discussed in detail.

"It's class time now, what are you doing standing here? Hurry up and go back to class, or I'll deduct points from your grade."

"Excuse me, teacher, I was feeling unwell just now."

"Alright, I'll let you off this time. Go back now, and don't let it happen again."

"Thank you, teacher."

The sudden "catch" by the grade director startled Ning Yanzhao. She quickly apologized to the grade director and returned to her classroom.

It would be a lie for Ning Yanzhao to say she doesn't feel ashamed that she always suddenly appears after transmigrating and then does some inexplicable things. It seems she still needs to learn to be immune to it.

"Report."

"It's Ning Yanzhao, come in quickly."

"Thank you, teacher."

When Ning Yanzhao returned to the classroom, the Chinese teacher and her classmates were not surprised that she was not in the classroom during class time and then suddenly returned. As expected, the Chinese teacher was more gentle.

Although it was indeed Ning Yanzhao's fault for missing class for a period of time without permission, and even though she didn't know why she had "just" appeared, if every day was like today, with her "accidental" appearances being seen by the grade head, it would really be bad for her heart.

Because Ning Yanzhao was preoccupied with her own thoughts, and there was simply too much new knowledge to learn in class, most of the morning's study time passed quickly.

At the same time, Ning Yanzhao observed the classroom as a whole. Apart from Xu Yongqing, who had already transferred schools, she did not see He Shenmo. She guessed that, like what happened to Xu Yongqing, except for the worst-case scenario, He Shenmo might have already gone somewhere else.

It was time for the morning's long break exercises. Ning Yanzhao took the opportunity to observe Class 1. In addition to An Nianyu, who was always at the front of the class leading the exercises, she also started to pay attention to the girls at the back of the class today. Sure enough, she saw a girl who was not very noticeable.

"Yanzhao, what are you thinking about? You seem to be in a bad mood lately." During the break between classes, Jing Yiran noticed Ning Yanzhao's heavy expression and secretly asked her this while the student council members checking discipline had walked away.

"Yiran, do you know the girl in the next class who has a yellow hair tie in her hair?"

"Which one? Let me see."

"Oh, I don't know her. Why? Why are you asking about her?"

"It's nothing." Ning Yanzhao simply shook her head. Since Jing Yiran didn't know, she would have to ask someone else herself.

Besides, Ning Yanzhao's various worries and doubts were still not convenient to tell Jing Yiran, who was an "outsider." It wasn't that she was unwilling, but she didn't know if doing so would cause any variables that she couldn't control. The fewer people who knew that she could travel through time, the safer it would be.

"You really are under too much academic pressure. If I had grades like yours, I definitely wouldn't be so anxious. Actually, I heard that your aunt and uncle aren't that strict with you. You still need to balance work and rest, and get some proper rest..."

"I understand, thank you for your concern."

"You're welcome. I should thank you even more for getting my lunch every day."

"You're still the best."

"You're still the best."

The two said it at the same time, and then they both laughed. It's truly a blessing to have a good friend with whom you've had a long-standing relationship.

It was noon, and Ning Yanzhao, as usual, rushed out of the classroom first to get lunch with her and Jing Yiran.

Even though Ning Yanzhao thought she was very fast, there were still many people ahead of her in the cafeteria today. While waiting in line, she thought of that girl from Class 1 again.

Regardless, Ning Yanzhao still cared a lot about this girl in Class One.

Ning Yanzhao was still thinking about how to find a suitable opportunity to get to know that girl, but before she could think of anything, the opportunity was presented to her.

Because the cafeteria was crowded today, Ning Yanzhao had to search for empty seats with difficulty, or at most two seats in a row. Fortunately, she found a row after a short while.

As if the incident were repeating itself, Ning Yanzhao was in such a hurry to grab a seat that her movements were too exaggerated. When she placed the plate on the table, she accidentally shook the bowl of soup on it, spilling it onto the school uniform jacket of a girl who had suddenly sat down opposite her. How awful.

"I'm sorry." Ning Yanzhao immediately apologized, and after carefully placing the plate down, she took out a few pieces of paper from her pocket and handed them to the girl opposite her.

"It doesn't matter."

That voice? It sounds somewhat familiar.

When Ning Yanzhao looked up, she found that it was indeed that girl. What a coincidence! However, this time she wasn't in a good mood either. She spilled soup on Ning Yanzhao's school uniform jacket, which seemed to be more serious than the last time she bumped into her.

"Excuse me."

"It's alright, I just sat here without permission. Is this seat taken?"

"No, there's no such thing as unauthorized seating. It's a public area on campus, and everyone can sit there."

"Thanks."

"You're too kind. By the way, could you please take off your school uniform jacket and give it to me later? I'll wash it and take it to your classroom. Otherwise, I'll feel really bad and won't be able to sleep tonight."

"How can you do that? You're being too polite."

"It's okay. What's your name? Which class are you in? If I come looking for you and you're not in the classroom, I can ask your classmate to transfer you there."

"Me? Since you insist, then fine. My name is Zhou Luoyin. Zhou is the Zhou Dynasty, Luo is the Luoyang, and Yin is the Yin of music. I am from Class 1, Grade 11."

"I understand. My name is Ning Yanzhao. Ning is the Ning of tranquility, Yan is the Yan of beauty with the water radical next to it, and Zhao is the Zhao of the Zhao of sun and summoning. I am in Class 2 of the second year of high school."

"So you're from the class next door? We've never met before."

"That must mean you don't often walk around in the hallway outside the classroom, otherwise you would definitely see me wandering around in the hallway all the time."

"Haha, you're joking."

Jing Yiran quickly joined them, and then Jing Yiran and Zhou Luoyin got to know each other again.

After Ning Yanzhao insisted on washing Zhou Luoyin's school uniform jacket that she had soiled, Zhou Luoyin handed the jacket over to her. In the end, this "first acquaintance" lunch ended peacefully. Zhou Luoyin said she was going back to the dormitory to get a new school uniform and left first, while Ning Yanzhao and Jing Yiran went to empty their respective plates.

"Yan Zhao, isn't this the girl you asked me about during recess today? So you two knew each other all along?"

"I don't know her. I just accidentally dirtied her school uniform jacket and we met by chance."

"Oh, I see. She seems like a pretty nice person. She wasn't very angry when you got oil stains on her school uniform jacket."

“Yes.” Ning Yanzhao watched Zhou Luoyin’s figure disappear from sight, then turned around and emptied her plate.

For some reason, Ning Yanzhao felt that there was some mystery behind the two events of attending An Nianyu's funeral nine years later and meeting Zhou Luoyin again near her home.

Meanwhile, Zhou Luoyin, after walking out of the cafeteria for a while, looked back at it again, her expression gloomy and unclear.

On the route between the cafeteria and the dormitory, many students walked and stopped frequently. Occasionally, they would see Zhou Luoyin standing by the roadside "dazed" and feel a little strange. However, because they were too busy with their own things, they would only glance at her briefly before hurrying on.

However, Zhou Luoyin didn't stay long before leaving, and then walked back downstairs to the dormitory building with her expressionless face.

The next day, the monthly exam at No. 1 Middle School began. Ning Yanzhao only discovered this important matter during evening self-study the previous night. She studied all night without daring to stop for a moment. So when Jing Yiran saw her face early in the morning, she was startled.

"Yan Zhao, you didn't stay up all night studying last night, did you?"

"Hmm...more or less."

"Oh my god, does that mean this exam is really difficult? Even you need to study so hard. What am I going to do?" Jing Yiran picked at her fingers, feeling uneasy.

"It's okay, I believe in you." Jing Yiran has learned more than her, who just learns here and there on the fly. If she weren't so unsure, she wouldn't be in this situation. She always forgets things she's learned as soon as she opens her eyes. Plus, she sometimes has to travel back to real life to work. She's not kidding, but lately she feels like she's about to have a mental breakdown.

"Don't believe me..."

Amidst Jing Yiran's sighs, the first exam of the month began, and the two days and four exams passed by painfully yet quickly.

"Finally finished the exam, I'm so tired. I don't know why I'm so tired, because I've never finished a math test since I started high school. This time, as expected, I 'made a spectacular exit'." Jing Yiran and Ning Yanzhao took the monthly exam in the same classroom. After the proctor collected the papers and left, she pulled Ning Yanzhao out of the classroom together.

"It's okay, me too. Most people can't solve the second sub-question of the last few big questions, it's not our problem."

"That's what I was thinking too, hehehe, let's go eat."

Let's go.

The two were walking to the cafeteria when they saw Zhou Luoyin, whom they hadn't seen for several days.

"Zhou Luoyin, Zhou Luoyin!" Jing Yiran greeted Zhou Luoyin loudly.

"It's you, hello." Zhou Luoyin heard someone call her name, turned around and saw Ning Yanzhao and Jing Yiran.

"Zhou Luoyin, when I went to your classroom today, your classmate said you had already left for the exam room, so I put the bag containing your school uniform jacket in your bookshelf. I'm sorry, the weather hasn't been very good these past few days, and my clothes dryer at home just happened to break down, so I delayed returning your school uniform jacket to you for another day."

At the very back of the classroom at No. 1 Middle School, there is a row of cabinets, each with a name written on it, which can hold some books.

"Okay, I understand. It's alright, these are all minor matters."

"How can you say this is a small matter? I'll be inconvenient for you if you need to change your clothes."

"It's alright."

"By the way, shall we go to the cafeteria for lunch together?"

"No need, my mother brought me lunch at school today, she should be waiting for me in the dormitory now."

"In that case, we'll be going now."

"Okay, you can go now."

After returning to her dormitory, Zhou Luoyin came out again not long after. She carefully observed that she did not recognize anyone around her, so she headed towards a less popular cafeteria on campus.
