Although the Tree of Life was determined, the operation was quite difficult. Of course, it is also possible that during the process, Emerald's unseemly screams attracted the attention of Old John and the others, which forced the Tree of Life to give up!
Fortunately, this time Jade didn't continue with her scheming; she kept her word and obediently returned to the Tree of Life.
Sitting on the trunk of the Tree of Life, her face no longer showing any pain, Emerald swung her legs and asked again, unwilling to give up, "You really, really aren't going to go find Xu Ling?"
There was no wind, yet the green leaves swayed, and the Tree of Life pretended not to hear her words.
That's impossible!
It will definitely go, but even if it does, why should it bring jade with it?
She had to keep her promise to Xu Ling, so she should stay here obediently and guard this place properly!
As for it...
The Tree of Life carefully concealed the fruit hidden among the dense leaves on the right side of the emerald, then covered it up again, still feeling uneasy.
Soon, it will be able to go find Xu Ling!
——
The bell finally rang, and although Bishop Miller was still standing on the podium, slowly tidying up his things, Xu Ling could finally relax after straightening her back for the entire class.
In an instant, she felt as if she had no bones left, collapsing limply onto her desk, and whispered a sigh of relief: "Finally over!"
Perhaps it was the strong sense of smugness in her voice that made her deskmate, who was diligently organizing her textbooks, turn and look at her.
Sisi Sanchez looked at Xu Ling, who seemed to have lost her soul even though she had only attended one class, and couldn't help but find it amusing, a smile creeping onto her lips.
"Going to Bishop Miller's class isn't that bad, is it?" She leaned towards Xu Ling and asked curiously in a whisper.
Based on her own experience, she said that Bishop Miller's classes were like heaven!
You don't have to be constantly worried about being called on to ask questions, nor do you have to sing hymns for no reason. You can just sit quietly, bow your head and pretend to pray, or do nothing at all and listen attentively to Bishop Miller's Bible sermons to get through a class peacefully.
It can be said that this was almost the most relaxed of all of Sisi's classes, and naturally it became her favorite class!
This is why she was curious when she saw Xu Ling looking so bitter and resentful.
"Could it be—that the witch's lessons are even simpler than this?" Even though it was just a guess, Sisi's tone couldn't help but reveal a hint of jealousy.
As a former Ye Xi who has become much younger after transmigrating, no one can understand the pain of Sisi Sanchez, who has been a corporate slave for many years and has returned to school!
Of course, it's not that school life is bad, but she really doesn't want to continue receiving education! Especially this kind of education that she finds completely incomprehensible!
Before she thought of Phil College, her brother Aaron Sanchez had sincerely asked for her opinion, saying that if she didn't want to go to school, she didn't have to.
But she felt that since she had just arrived in this world and knew nothing about it, it was still necessary for her to go...
I really want to give my past self a good whack on the head!
These leisurely days are too easy; they're forced to endure hardship when there's none!
Thinking about the classes I'm taking now, I understand every single word the teacher says, but when they're put together into a sentence... it's just...
Sisi couldn't help but sigh for herself.
It would be one thing if I just couldn't understand the lessons, but even the relationships between classmates—
I don't know if it was because everyone had done bad things to her before she came into the body of Sisi Sanchez, or because she joined the class midway through?
In short, she could clearly feel that her classmates kept their distance from her, as if they wanted to stay as far away from her as possible!
However, although Sissi Sanchez seemed to be isolated by them, she actually didn't care much about their attitude.
To put it bluntly, she doesn't care at all whether she makes friends with them or not!
However, although she held such an indifferent attitude, she really didn't expect that such thoughts would disappear instantly on just the first day of school.
She had just entered the classroom and glanced around casually when she immediately noticed the black-haired girl standing out from the crowd in her white and silver robes.
Even though the other person was sitting in a very secluded corner of the classroom, why did she stand out so much because she was so dark from head to toe?
It's hard not to attract other people's attention!
Anyway, Sisi noticed that not only her gaze involuntarily turned over, but also that other people's gazes followed it unintentionally.
But of all the people, she was the only one who boldly and purposefully walked towards the girl.
Undeniably, the other person's long, black hair deeply attracted her attention.
As she approached, the familiar bone structure caught her eye unexpectedly, and Sisi began to feel glad that she had come over without any hesitation!
Although the girl's appearance could be described as bland, or even slightly strange, in a world where the general public tends to have Western-style, deep-set features, this was not the case for Sisi!
This is the face she is most familiar with, and the one that she finds most comfortable to look at!
Sisi couldn't contain her excitement, and her mind was instantly filled with only one thought—how could she naturally and amicably flirt with the other person... no, no, how could she become good friends with them?
Although her brain was still racking its brains for a solution, her body had already taken matters into its own hands. Her steps did not stop at all, and she even took a breath imperceptibly along the way to make herself appear calm and composed.
She walked decisively toward the black-haired girl, then stopped beside her, casually pulled out the chair next to her, and sat down as if she had just found an empty seat.
Throughout the entire process, Sisi subtly observed the black-haired girl's every move out of the corner of her eye.
When she noticed the other person slightly raise their eyes, a fleeting look of surprise crossing their face, she immediately thought to herself—the opportunity has arrived!
As if she had only just noticed the other person's gaze, Sisi turned her head and asked with a hint of embarrassment, "Is anyone here...?"
As if startled by her gaze, the black-haired girl immediately shook her head: "N-no!"
Seeing her flustered denial, Xixi suddenly found her somewhat adorable and couldn't help but smile: "Then you don't mind if I sit here, do you?"
"You really want to sit here?" the black-haired girl asked in surprise, in a low voice. "Aren't you going to sit with the others?"
As she said this, her gaze cautiously swept over the crowd around her, silently indicating that she was clearly different from them. Wasn't she afraid of being isolated sitting here?
