"Were Tang Zhizhou and Xie Sichen your junior high school classmates too?" Although Lu Ziyin knew the family backgrounds of most of the students in the class and they were junior high school classmates, Ding Kemeng could clearly sense that Lu Ziyin's relationship with these students was not very close.
“They’ve been my classmates since kindergarten.” Since Lu Ziyin started kindergarten, Tang Zhizhou has been by his side, and Xie Sichen has gradually joined him. They’ve been together and apart for a while, but these two have always been by his side.
"No wonder you two get along so well..." Ding Kemeng was a little envious of this friendship. If only her elementary school life could be this happy...
Seeing Ding Kemeng's expression, Lu Ziyin asked with some confusion, "Didn't you and Ye Nai grow up together?"
"No, Nana and I only met in junior high school!" Ding Kemeng couldn't help but smile again when she mentioned Ye Nai.
"Cute kids! Are you talking about me?"
They were so engrossed in discussing the sports meet that they didn't realize it was time for school to end. It wasn't until they heard Ye Nai's voice that Ding Kemeng snapped out of her reverie.
"Nana, are you up so early today?"
"Yeah, our homeroom teacher just finished talking about the sports meet and I ran out. I'll take you home today, Mengbao!" Since transferring classes, Ye Nai has rarely had a chance to talk to Ding Kemeng. Every time she wants to chat with Ding Kemeng alone, either Lu Ziyin is with Ding Kemeng or Tang Zhizhou sends her away. It's really infuriating!
“Okay, I’ll tidy up my homework. Wait for me a bit, I’ll be done soon!” Ding Kemeng hadn’t gone home with Ye Nai in a long time, so she nodded quickly.
"Okay, then hurry up and get ready!" Ye Nai said, and then waited on the side.
Although Lu Ziyin also wanted to take Ding Kemeng home, with Ye Nai there, he couldn't find a reason to intervene. He could only stand aside, watching Ding Kemeng put all her books into her bag, finally making room for her, and watching helplessly as she and Ye Nai left.
"Nai Nai, I'm all ready, let's go!" After saying goodbye to Lu Ziyin, Ding Kemeng ran towards Ye Nai.
After patting Ding Kemeng's head, Ye Nai glanced back at Lu Ziyin, smiled smugly, and said, "Let's go home!"
Lu Ziyin knew exactly what Ye Nai meant. From the very beginning when he wanted to get close to Ding Kemeng, Ye Nai had been on guard against him. Especially after Ding Kemeng became his deskmate, Ye Nai didn't say anything on the surface, but he probably had already stabbed him in the back!
"Tsk tsk tsk... Sigh... Brother Lu, poor thing!" Tang Zhizhou, seeing Ding Kemeng and Ye Nai leave, sidled up to them with a sly grin and said with great sympathy, "So what if you're classmates with that girl? You can't send her love letters, you don't dare to confess, and her best friend is wary of you. Sigh... You can only be classmates!"
"Tang Zhizhou, no one will think you're mute if you don't speak!" Lu Ziyin rolled her eyes at Tang Zhizhou, pulled her schoolbag out of her desk, threw down a sentence, and left the classroom without looking back.
So what if Ye Nai is wary of him? So what if he can only be classmates with Meng Bao now? Sooner or later, Meng Bao will definitely be his, and no one can stop him!
Xie Sichen watched Lu Ziyin storm out the door, shook his head, and said helplessly, "You know perfectly well that he can't handle your teasing, yet you still provoked him. You're really asking for trouble!"
Tang Zhizhou scratched his head and gave an awkward laugh. He just couldn't help it!
"It's getting late, let's go back. Let's play games together tonight!" Tang Zhizhou took out his backpack and prepared to go back as well.
But before he had gone far from his seat, a voice sounded behind him.
"Tang Zhizhou and Xie Sichen! You two, stop right there! Where do you think you're going?!"
That voice... Li Meilin!
"What? School's over, aren't we allowed to go home?" Tang Zhizhou turned around, looking impatient.
Li Meilin was also angry. She was supposed to be arranging cheerleading routines, but these two male trainees actually tried to run away!
"Lu Ziyin 'sold' you two to me before she left, so don't even think about running away! You two are boys and haven't done cheerleading before, so you two will be training with us tonight!" She had just found a dance studio, and the teacher gave her the key. It would be a waste not to take advantage of such a good opportunity!
"Are you crazy? I'm not going!" Tang Zhizhou immediately shouted, and tried to run away.
Li Meilin had long anticipated that these two would resist, so...
"Lin Changmao, stop those two and take them to the dance studio!" Li Meilin shouted towards the classroom door. Lin Changmao, a tall, dark-skinned man who had been waiting outside, immediately went into the classroom, grabbing one of them with each hand. Xie Sichen and Tang Zhizhou were completely powerless to resist and were dragged out!
"Lin Changmao, are you even human?!" Tang Zhizhou was being held tightly by Lin Changmao's hand, and he could barely breathe.
"There's no other way. Lu Ziyin specifically asked me to come and help Li Meilin before he left. I can't refuse to give face to Young Master Lu, can I?" Lin Changmao exerted his strength again, his dark face full of a triumphant smile.
"Lu—Zi—Yin! You beast! You have no humanity!" Tang Zhizhou's curses at Lu Ziyin echoed at the entrance of Class 10, but Lu Ziyin herself couldn't hear anything.
Since the students in Class 10 re-signed for the sports meet, they have suddenly changed from their usual carefree attitude!
For example, during physical education class, the boys in Class 10 didn't wander around. Instead, they gathered in small groups to watch Lin Changmao and the others train!
Students from the other two classes who had the same physical education class as Class 10 on the same day were somewhat shocked by what they saw.
Song Xingjie stood in Class 10's line for a long time, but he couldn't see Ding Kemeng. Instead, his gaze met Lu Ziyin's several times.
"Xingjie, what are those people from Class 10 doing? It's just a sports meet, why are they making such a fuss? Do they expect to get points from the sports meet?" A boy next to Song Xingjie couldn't help but speak up when he saw him staring in the direction of Class 10.
"They're really overestimating themselves. They think they can boost the class's total score by relying on the sports meet just because their grades aren't good!" Another boy glanced at the students in Class 10 and sneered.
Song Xingjie looked away and said in a gentle tone, "After all, Class 10 has always been the worst class. Apart from the sports meet, where they can earn some class points, they can't earn class points anywhere else."
"Honestly, I don't understand why the school had to create a Class 10. What can they do besides lowering Xiushui's college entrance rate?" The boy took off his jacket, sat on the bench, and looked disgusted.
"You can't say that. Those students in Class 10 are the cash cow for Xiushui!" Another boy smiled disapprovingly.
"You two, shut up! The school bully from Class 10 is watching you!" Song Xingjie felt Lu Ziyin's gaze, curled the corners of his mouth, and smiled at Lu Ziyin.
