In elementary school, we only learned Chinese, math, and English, which was enough. But in junior high, the curriculum changed drastically. The first time the school divided students into classes, it wasn't just based on their grades; it was mostly random.
So, Class 1 isn't exactly a top-performing class, but compared to other classes, it definitely has a slight advantage.
On her first day, Lu Qingyan casually found a place to sit down. After a while, three pretty young girls came over and sat down next to her.
The tall one in the lead asked enthusiastically, "You're in this class too, right? My name is Xiao Xin, what's your name?"
Lu Qingyan replied, "My name is Xiao Xin'er."
From Xiao Xin'er's memory, she naturally knew that this person was called Xiao Xin, and that the two people next to her who looked a bit older were called Zhou Jing and the one who looked a bit younger were called Bai Tingyu.
After Lu Qingyan spoke, Xiao Xin's expression turned very ugly.
Zhou Jing was quite surprised: "Hey! Xiao Xin, her name sounds so similar to yours. If it weren't for the fact that her name has one more character than yours, you would have called out to both of them at once."
Zhou Jing is a very easygoing person, while Bai Tingyu is much more observant. She could tell from Xiao Xin's expression why Xiao Xin was angry—it was because the name bothered her.
Xiao Xin, be careful.
Xiao Xin'er, message, be careful.
Just by listening to it, you can tell that the latter sounds much more intimate and comfortable than the former.
Regardless of what she was thinking, she quickly regained her composure and smiled as she pulled Lu Qingyan along, saying, "Yes, we are quite destined to meet. I wonder what year and month you were born? If you don't mind, let's follow the ancients' example and become sisters?"
Lu Qingyan pulled her hand away and refused, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, but I already have a younger sister, and I'm really worried that she'll take my things when she grows up."
Not to mention that you were originally a wolf in sheep's clothing, wanting to steal my fortune.
Lu Qingyan glanced at Bai Tingyu, the little girl beside her, and happened to meet Bai Tingyu's meaningful smile.
Lu Qingyan felt a little scared. She had expected this scene, but in the end, she was the one who wanted to back down. She really didn't understand Taoist magic, and she could imagine how difficult it would be to fight against Bai Tingyu.
Regardless of what she was thinking, Xiao Xin appeared calm on the surface.
She said regretfully, "That's a real pity. I don't have any sisters in my family. I was thinking of finding a few more sisters for my family in the future, but Xin'er, you're the first one to not give me face."
Haha, how close could we be after meeting only yesterday? Why should I give you face?
Lu Qingyan, with a cold expression, subtly moved a little further away from Xiao Xin.
Bai Tingyu noticed it with her sharp eyes. She was young and had a cute, doll-like face. When she pouted and acted coquettishly, she had a very alluring charm: "Sister Xin'er, really, Xiao Xin just wants to have more friends to play with. What are you doing?"
Lu Qingyan was dumbfounded: What did I do?
I didn't do anything, yet you're all staring at me like I did something to offend you. Is that really necessary?
Is it unacceptable to speak the truth these days? Or have you all watched too many palace dramas and have to interpret three or five meanings from a single sentence?
"Let's go, now that everyone's here, let's clean up first before getting the books," a tall, thin boy commanded from above.
Lu Qingyan knew that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the person above would be the class monitor.
