A boy sitting near the door saw Lu Ziyin standing there and, thinking of Tang Meng from his class, couldn't help but chuckle. He turned around and teased Tang Meng, who was sitting in the middle, loudly, "Tang Meng, your boyfriend is here! He's holding milk in his hand. Did he come to bring you breakfast?"
Hearing the boy's teasing, the students in the class who were doing their homework couldn't help but look up and head towards the door.
Tang Meng certainly saw Lu Ziyin, but she knew Lu Ziyin definitely wasn't there to see her...
Despite the stares of the students in Class 1, Lu Ziyin showed no discomfort and walked into the classroom without changing her expression.
Under Ding Kemeng's questioning gaze, Lu Ziyin walked straight to Ding Kemeng, placed the things in her hand on Ding Kemeng's table, opened the milk cap in advance, and said in a gentle tone: "Heat milk, and breakfast too. Eat some, it will make your throat feel better."
The group of people who thought Lu Ziyin had come to see Tang Meng were stunned by the scene before them. What was going on? Had Lu Ziyin come to the wrong person? Didn't he like Tang Meng?
Ding Kemeng glanced at the things on the table and hesitated for a moment: "I've already eaten breakfast, I'm not hungry, and I already have ginger tea, so there's no need to drink milk."
When Lu Ziyin appeared, Song Xingjie's attention shifted to him. Seeing Lu Ziyin walk straight towards Ding Kemeng as soon as he entered the classroom, Song Xingjie couldn't help but feel nervous. When he saw Lu Ziyin take out milk and breakfast, Song Xingjie's heart skipped a beat.
However, Ding Kemeng's next words made Song Xingjie relax a lot, and she refused Lu Ziyin's offer.
It seems that being the eldest son of the Lu family isn't always that useful!
"Is that so..." Lu Ziyin glanced at the black thermos on Ding Kemeng's table, turned around, accurately found the owner of the thermos, met Song Xingjie's smug gaze, and smiled disdainfully.
"Bang!"
"Ah—!" The girl at the next table was startled and screamed.
The thermos cup fell to the ground, and a whole cup of ginger tea was spilled!
"Oops, sorry, I didn't notice, I spilled it." Lu Ziyin looked at Song Xingjie's arrogant smile, then turned back to Ding Kemeng. Her expression instantly turned aggrieved: "Cute girl, are you alright? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Several students who witnessed Lu Ziyin's change of expression throughout the entire process: ...
How come the school bully has two faces?
Ding Kemeng didn't see Lu Ziyin's expression when she turned around. The ginger tea was spilled, but thankfully no one was hurt. "It's okay, I wasn't burned." Ding Kemeng bent down to pick up the thermos; it belonged to someone else, and she didn't want it to break.
How could Lu Ziyin let Ding Kemeng pick up the scalding hot thermos? She quickly stopped Ding Kemeng and said, "Mengbao, don't pick it up, it's very hot. I'll do it."
Lu Ziyin picked up the thermos and said with a smile, "The ginger tea has all spilled. You should drink milk instead; it's more nutritious!"
"But..." Ding Kemeng wanted to say that the cup wasn't hers and she needed to return it to someone else, but Lu Ziyin interrupted her in advance, "The thermos isn't yours, is it? Let me wash the cup for you first, and then I'll return it to him for you!"
"You don't really need to do this. I can wash myself." Ding Kemeng didn't know what to say. Lu Ziyin's attitude towards her was too strange, and she wasn't used to it!
"You eat your milk and breakfast first, I'll go wash the cup!" Lu Ziyin rubbed Ding Kemeng's head, stopping Ding Kemeng from getting up to wash the cup herself.
After putting the lid back on the thermos, Lu Ziyin turned around and walked out of the classroom. As she passed Song Xingjie, she couldn't help but smile slightly. Without making a sound, she took out a hundred-yuan bill from her pocket, gently slapped it on Song Xingjie's desk, gave a cold snort, and left the classroom without looking back.
As she left the classroom and walked to the corner of the corridor, stopping in front of the trash can, Lu Ziyin's smile gradually turned cold. She glanced at her thermos cup, then threw it into the trash can.
Only after Lu Ziyin had walked away did the students seem to be able to breathe again, and the quiet classroom gradually became quiet again.
"Tang Meng, what's going on? Doesn't Lu Ziyin like you?" Why is he suddenly being so nice to Ding Kemeng? Several gossipy boys couldn't contain their curiosity and had already gathered around Tang Meng, asking her all sorts of questions.
Having been frightened by Lu Ziyin, Tang Meng no longer dared to pretend to be Lu Ziyin's girlfriend. Faced with the boy's questions, she could only lower her head and remain silent.
The other girls who were also taught a lesson along with Tang Meng naturally knew the truth, but now that the main person involved didn't dare to mention it again, it was best for them, who were not involved, to mind their own business. After all, none of them could afford to offend the young master of the Lu family!
Tang Meng remained silent, and the boys couldn't get any information out of her, so they eventually had no choice but to give up.
The ginger tea that had spilled on the floor near Ding Kemeng's seat had already been cleaned up by a girl at the next table. Ding Kemeng felt bad and wanted to give the girl a piece of candy as a thank you, but the girl didn't dare to accept it and kept refusing her.
The thermos was given to her by Song Xingjie. Now the ginger tea has spilled, and Lu Ziyin has taken the thermos. Judging from Lu Ziyin's expression, she probably won't get the thermos back. Ding Kemeng took out her wallet from her schoolbag, pulled out a hundred-yuan bill, and got up to walk to Song Xingjie's side.
Seeing the hundred-yuan bill that suddenly appeared in front of him, Song Xingjie frowned and looked unpleasant. "What do you mean by this?" Did she look down on him like Lu Ziyin?
Seeing Song Xingjie's expression change, Ding Kemeng assumed he was upset because he hadn't given her enough money. She quickly took out two more hundred-yuan bills from her wallet and placed them in front of Song Xingjie, saying, "Class monitor, I'm sorry, the thermos was accidentally broken, and I didn't get to drink the ginger tea inside. It's such a waste of your thoughtfulness. This money is to compensate you. I don't know if it's enough. If it's not, just tell me and I'll make up the difference!"
Song Xingjie was furious at Ding Kemeng's words. His face turned from red to green, then from green to black. His eyes were filled with anger as he looked at Ding Kemeng, and his tone was no longer gentle: "Thank you, but I don't need it! I made the ginger tea for you voluntarily, not to charge you! That thermos isn't anything expensive, so it's fine if it's broken. I don't mind!"
"So, you should keep this money yourself!" After gritting his teeth and finishing speaking, Song Xingjie gasped for breath, stood up abruptly, and quickly left the classroom.
Even after walking to the corner of the corridor, Song Xingjie was still furious. Seeing that no one was around, he finally couldn't help but kick the trash can.
It was early morning, and there wasn't much trash in the bin when Song Xingjie kicked it. The bin, which wasn't even fixed in place, immediately tipped over.
