While out playing, Ding Kemeng was nagged by Ye Nai for not getting close to Lu Ziyin's group. In order not to make Ye Nai angry, she could only nod repeatedly. In the end, she didn't even remember what she had been looking at before going home.
The homework for Class 10 wasn't much, and Ding Kemeng finished it all in one day at home. Seeing that his daughter was recovering from her illness and in a good mood, Ding's father simply booked plane tickets and took his wife and daughter on a trip to Hawaii for a few days, only returning on the last day of the National Day holiday.
The holiday is over, and school starts again.
"Want some cookies?" As soon as Ding Kemeng sat down, Lu Ziyin took out a small box of cookies from the desk drawer.
Ding Kemeng took the cookie box, opened it, and ate a cookie. It was soft, chewy, and tasted great!
"Thanks."
Seeing Ding Kemeng eating happily, Lu Ziyin was also happy. His eyes were filled with a doting affection that he himself did not realize: "Eat more if you like it. I have more here."
"Brother Lu, what are you eating? I want some too!" Tang Zhizhou and Xie Sichen walked in from outside and reached out to grab the cookies on the table.
Lu Ziyin would never let Tang Zhizhou take Ding Kemeng's things, so she slapped him across the face, making Tang Zhizhou's hand red.
"Lu Ziyin, are we still brothers? What's wrong with me eating your little cookie!" Tang Zhizhou rubbed his reddened hand, feeling extremely aggrieved. This Lu Ziyin guy is simply heartless when it comes to women!
"What kind of grown man eats cookies? Go eat air!" Lu Ziyin showed no remorse for hurting Tang Zhizhou's young heart and even rolled her eyes at him.
"Here, take this and eat it." Ding Kemeng thought Tang Zhizhou really liked this kind of cookie, so she quickly handed the cookie to Tang Zhizhou.
How could Tang Zhizhou possibly accept this!
It was just a joke, and he doesn't even like cookies. Besides, it would be shameless of him to fight with a little girl for food! Tang Zhizhou quickly refused Ding Kemeng.
Seeing Tang Zhizhou's awkward expression, Xie Sichen smiled helplessly and was about to sit down when a very tall and steaming shadow appeared in front of him.
"Xie Sichen, have you finished your math test? Can I copy it?"
Just as Ding Kemeng was about to take the cookies back, everything suddenly went dark. She looked up in confusion and saw a dark wall in front of her!
"Holy crap! Lin Changmao, what did your family feed you to grow so tall!" Tang Zhizhou turned around upon hearing the voice and almost bumped into Lin Changmao, quickly taking two steps back.
"There's no way around it, we're rich, we eat corn grits by the ton!" Lin Changmao, who is 1.96 meters tall, glanced at Tang Zhizhou, who is only 1.79 meters tall, and smiled very smugly.
Lin Changmao held up his hand to compare his chest to Tang Zhizhou's head, and said with feigned "sympathy," "Tang Zhizhou, it's been over a year, and I haven't seen you grow much taller!"
"Get lost, go eat your corn grits!" Tang Zhizhou really didn't want to see Lin Changmao, that big dark guy!
"Good morning, Brother Lu!" After teasing Tang Zhizhou, Lin Changmao also greeted Lu Ziyin, who was sitting next to him, with a smile, and then his gaze shifted to Ding Kemeng next to Lu Ziyin.
"Hello new classmate, my name is Lin Changmao, and I'm the new sports committee member of Class 10!"
Ding Kemeng was sitting while Lin Changmao was standing, so in order to see Lin Changmao's face clearly, she had to tilt her head almost to a ninety-degree angle! But when she actually saw Lin Changmao, Ding Kemeng was a little stunned, because she had never seen any Chinese person as dark-skinned as Lin Changmao!
He's so dark-skinned that you can barely make out his features!
"Hello, I'm Ding Kemeng." Her neck was so sore!
"I've heard Ye Nai mention you before. She bragged to me every day about how pretty you are. I didn't really believe it then, but now that I see you, you really are pretty, like a doll!" Lin Changmao looked Ding Kemeng up and down. She really is so small!
Is he as tall as his waist?
Upon hearing Lin Changmao say that Ye Nai had boasted about her to him, Ding Kemeng blushed instantly. Such boasting about her good looks was indeed something Ye Nai would do!
"Cute baby has always been beautiful, you have good taste!" Hearing Lin Changmao praise Ding Kemeng's beauty, Lu Ziyin couldn't help but straighten up, her expression full of pride.
Ding Kemeng was already shy when Lin Changmao praised her for being pretty, but now that Lu Ziyin was seriously echoing Lin Changmao's words, Ding Kemeng was even more embarrassed!
"I'm telling you, isn't your focus on your homework?" Xie Sichen couldn't stand the sight of a group of boys staring at Ding Kemeng anymore. Didn't they see that the girl's face was burning up?
"Right, I haven't finished my homework either!" Hearing Xie Sichen's reminder, Tang Zhizhou came to his senses, quickly opened his schoolbag, and took out several brand-new test papers.
"Sister Meng! Help!" Ding Kemeng was from Class 1, so it was impossible for her not to do her homework. Therefore, Tang Zhizhou cleverly turned his pleading gaze to her!
"Um..." Ding Kemeng wanted to say that copying homework was wrong, but when she met Tang Zhizhou's pitiful eyes, she suddenly felt a little sorry for him.
Ding Kemeng pulled the completed test paper out of her schoolbag and handed it to Tang Zhizhou, saying seriously, "Copying homework is wrong. You should do your homework properly next time. It's okay if you don't know how to do it; at least you tried to do it yourself, and the teacher won't make things difficult for you!"
Tang Zhizhou, who never uses his brain: He was so touched... but he still wouldn't do it!
Everyone who had borrowed the homework had already gone back to copy it, but Lu Ziyin, the big spender who didn't do homework, remained completely unmoved.
Thinking of Lu Ziyin's last place ranking, Ding Kemeng asked with concern, "Have you done your homework? If there's anything you don't understand, I can teach you."
Lu Ziyin straightened his face and said, "No, I don't need it." Even if he were beaten to death, he would never copy Ding Kemeng's homework!
Seeing that Lu Ziyin refused, Ding Kemeng assumed that he had already done it, so she didn't say anything.
Only Xie Sichen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he heard this. If he remembered correctly, Lu Ziyin didn't seem to have brought her holiday homework home at all!
The pre-class homework completion session for Class 10 ended, and everyone finally handed in their homework amidst the hoarse voices of the subject representatives.
In the first physics class, the physics teacher walked into the classroom with the textbook. After several angry shouts from him, the classroom of Class 10 finally quieted down.
Then the formal classes began.
Although physics class wasn't very engaging, at least it wasn't as soporific as language arts class.
Since the start of the semester, Lu Ziyin had never attended a single physics class. Listening to the physics teacher's lecture now felt like listening to gibberish.
After stealing a glance at Ding Kemeng's book, Lu Ziyin quickly flipped to that page in her physics book, sat up straight, and looked at the blackboard.
