Chapter 13 The kitten seems to be a little dead.
Shi Miao handed over the candy, ignoring Jiang Yingxu's frowning and indifferent rejection, and happily pulled out a chair to sit down in her own seat.
Class monitor Xia Hui and academic representative Ge Sitong went to the teachers' office and brought a brand new set of textbooks, placing them on Shi Miao's desk.
Shi Miao was a generous little cat; she thanked them sweetly while pulling out a handful of candy from her backpack.
This time it was just regular filled gummies, and they stuffed a dozen or so into the two people's hands.
Xia Hui didn't stand on ceremony, tearing open a piece and popping it into her mouth. She was pleasantly surprised by the slightly sour and sweet orange flavor. "No artificial sweetener taste, so delicious! What brand is this?"
Shi Miao smiled and said, "It was a gift from a friend. I don't know what brand it is."
Xia Hui felt a little disappointed, put it in her pocket, and planned to go home to get her phone to take a picture and search for it.
She pulled Ge Sitong, who was slowly eating candy, aside and said in a friendly manner, "The teaching pace at No. 1 Middle School is quite fast. If you have any questions, you can come to us."
Ge Sitong pushed up her glasses and said slowly, "Don't you even know who her deskmate is?"
Xia Hui: "Yuan Yuan will have to attend math competition training courses!"
Seeing that Shi Miao looked bewildered, Xia Hui enthusiastically introduced the situation.
"Your deskmate, Zou Yuanyuan, was second in the grade last semester and won first prize in the provincial math competition."
“Our friend, Ge Sitong, ranked third in the grade in the final exam last semester.”
certainly.
Xia Hui coughed lightly, winked, and whispered, "And there's that top student in the grade behind you."
"He has a cold personality and rarely interacts with others in the class. Yuan Yuan will be going to Mingde Building to prepare for the math competition finals, so if you want to ask questions, of course you should ask our kind, beautiful, generous, and gentle class monitor!"
Ge Sitong felt a wave of nausea from Xia Hui's words and pushed away Xia Hui's smiling face.
Shi Miao's eyes sparkled as she nodded earnestly.
After Xia Hui and Ge Sitong left, she touched the brand-new textbooks. Looking left, she saw the original book's clever female protagonist; looking right, she glimpsed Jiang Yingxu writing with his head down in the faint reflection of the glass window—the villain that the male protagonist tried every means to deal with.
The illiterate kitten felt as if it were bathed in the halo of a genius, baptized by knowledge.
The school bell rang.
The first class was math. Niu Chongtian walked onto the podium with a book rolled into a cylinder under his arm and a keychain dangling from his waist.
Shi Miao opened the book, full of enthusiasm and once again brimming with confidence—
"...?"
Shi Miao looked up at the blackboard, then looked down at her book.
As Niu Chongtian passionately solved the problem, a slow, bewildered, and desperate smile crumbled across his face.
What are you saying in all that chatter?
I can't understand it at all!
The kitten clutched its head and screamed.gif
Shi Miao couldn't believe it, but comforted herself that it must be because she had suddenly come into contact with human knowledge and hadn't adapted yet. She would get used to it soon.
So I perked up and listened to two lessons.
Shi Miao: ω
Oh no, I was diagnosed with hopeless illiteracy on the second day after transmigrating into the book.
The bell for the long break is a dynamic march for morning exercises, but the playground is now full of freshmen undergoing military training, so the morning exercises for the second and third year students have been canceled.
After two lessons of intensive learning, Shi Miao slammed her head on a book as soon as get out of class ended.
Zou Yuanyuan was startled, thinking she was unwell, and leaned closer to ask softly, "Miaomiao, what's wrong?"
Shi Miao, her eyes brimming with tears, clung to the edge of the table. "What did you think of these two classes?"
Zou Yuanyuan, puzzled, said, "It's fine."
She thought for a moment, then looked enlightened. "Do you feel the pace is a bit slow? It's mainly because it's the beginning of the semester, and the teacher's main goal is to get us into a learning mindset, so the focus right now is on overall review."
"After all, this semester is about reviewing the knowledge points from the beginning of high school and filling in any gaps in our understanding."
Shi Miao: "."
Shi Miao said weakly, "I can only give these two lessons an 8.6."
Because the kitten seems to be a little dead.
The long break between classes lasts a full half hour. The classrooms are bustling with activity as boys and girls run off to the school store in groups to eat snacks and fruit, chat, and play.
Shi Miao sat there for a long time, feeling dizzy from the weight of knowledge, and desperately needed to breathe some fresh air.
Zou Yuanyuan is diligently practicing her math problems.
Shi Miao grabbed the light-colored thermos cup from the corner of her desk, said, "I'll get you some water," and then slipped out of the classroom as if she were escaping.
The water dispensers are located next to the toilets on each floor.
Shi Miao watched the water splashing into the cup and sighed, thinking about the lessons she couldn't understand at all.
[Unified,] Shi Miao QAQ, [Is this school absolutely necessary?]
She's just a little kitten!
The system remained silent, but simply displayed a light screen in front of Shi Miao.
All courses from elementary to high school were neatly categorized and organized, with each course name followed by a bold, large bracket that read "Expert Explanation."
Shi Miao: [。]
Shi Miao pretended not to see it, slammed the door shut, and continued sobbing, "[Then I can't learn all of this in such a short time.]"
The system remained silent, but simply retrieved a video from memory and played it.
That was a learning space specially created by the God of God for the illiterate kitten.
The fluffy calico kitten rolled on the ground, revealing its white belly, and slept soundly, purring softly.
Next to the screen above, where videos of renowned teachers' lectures were playing, a line of large characters was written in a flamboyant style by a cat—
The cat doesn't understand, so it's asleep.
It even pressed a cat paw print on it.
Shi Miao, who is extremely prone to procrastination, adept at wasting time, and who may now be cramming for exams at the last minute: [...]
Shi Miao walked along, head down, clutching her thermos.
Ugh.
I wish I had learned some of that back then.
If only we could do it again...
She kept delaying even when we did it again, hehe^^
Shi Miao entered the classroom through the front door this time, passed through the desks piled high with books on both sides, and placed the thermos on Zou Yuanyuan's desk.
Zou Yuanyuan looked up, her delicate eyebrows curving slightly, "Thank you, Miaomiao."
Shi Miao replied, "No need to thank me," but her gaze couldn't help but pass over her and land on Jiang Yingxu behind her.
The boy who was writing his test paper with great speed before leaving suddenly raised his head, his brows furrowed, as if he had encountered an extremely difficult puzzle. His dark eyes swept over the noisy classroom.
He placed his hands on the edge of the table, letting the cuffs of his school uniform slightly cover the backs of his hands, revealing only a small, reddish wound.
I promised her this morning that I would apply the medicine when I got to school.
Shi Miao lowered her gaze.
The candy is still in the same place.
Shi Miao didn't know what Jiang Yingxu was looking for, but seeing his suppressed and irritable expression, she moved slightly closer, pressed the candy with her fingertips, and pushed it towards him.
Why aren't you eating?
The kitten earnestly promoted, "It's really delicious, and it will make you very happy."
"..."
Jiang Yingxu's view was partially blocked. His expression was indifferent as he looked directly at the unfamiliar girl for the first time.
The transfer student I introduced during morning reading.
It was also the person who grabbed his sleeve in the cafeteria.
During the first two classes, he would occasionally look up and catch a glimpse of the ends of her hair swaying as she shook her head.
She is indeed beautiful.
Especially her eyes, with their rounded curves, clear irises, and thick eyelashes that seem to have built-in eyeliner, elongating the outer corners of her eyes, adding a touch of coquettishness to her innocent and naive appearance.
That delicate, pampered air of hers was almost like that of a kitten.
Jiang Yingxu abruptly shifted his gaze, realizing that he had inexplicably linked the strange girl to the cat demon at home, and that he had just seemed to hallucinate hearing the cat demon's voice—
Not only do they have round eyes, but their voices are also somewhat similar.
Jiang Yingxu, unusually agitated, pressed his lips into a straight line and coldly refused, "I won't eat."
Shi Miao had only ever seen Jiang Yingxu silently indulgent before, so seeing him frowning and resisting now was quite novel.
However, it's normal that other people don't like the foods she likes.
Shi Miao was a very tolerant little cat, and decided to make one last attempt to sell it. If Jiang Yingxu refused, she would take it back and eat it herself.
"Really not going to give it a try?"
Jiang Yingxu: "No."
All right.
Shi Miao flicked her finger and picked up the candy, "Then I'll eat it myself..."
Before she could finish speaking, two boys chasing each other in the aisle darted past, and the one behind, unable to turn around in time, bumped into Shi Miao.
Shi Miao's attention was entirely on Jiang Yingxu, and she didn't notice that she was being bumped into and stumbled, taking two steps toward Jiang Yingxu.
Before she could retract her outstretched hand, it almost touched the boy's cheek.
Jiang Yingxu's breath hitched, and like a hedgehog raising its quills in defense, he hastily raised his hand—
*Smack*
Shi Miao's hand was forcefully pushed away by his forearm, and the candy she was holding slipped out and fell to the ground.
The two boys hurriedly stopped in their tracks, blaming each other and apologizing repeatedly.
"I'm so sorry, we didn't mean to."
"Did the bump hurt you?"
Shi Miao steadied herself, looked down at the faint red marks on her hand from the impact, and then at the candy that had slid a distance on the ground.
Shi Miao: "..."
She's angry!
[Unification.]
She huffed and puffed, coldly annoyed, and announced, "I'm a little unhappy, and I'm going to have a cold war with Jiang Yingxu for a day."
The kitten has strong likes and dislikes, and is exceptionally fair.
She is now a stranger to Jiang Yingxu, so it's normal for him to be indifferent and defensive.
But she was unhappy when Jiang Yingxu bumped into her hand and knocked her candy away.
One day of the Cold War!
The system watched the whole thing. Despite the arguing, it unconditionally sided with its host, the little cat, and comforted her: "You're right, you truly are a gentle, bubbly little cat."
Shi Miao didn't care about the candy anymore. She puffed out her soft cheeks, shook her head at the two boys who were apologizing, and returned to her seat.
Zou Yuanyuan pulled herself out of the sea of questions and pressed for more details.
No one noticed Jiang Yingxu's suddenly raised eyes and his forearm, which was frozen in mid-air and trembling slightly.
