Chapter 47

On the first day of school, Li Xiang came to Yu Nian’s house as usual, waiting for her. However, just as he was about to ring the doorbell, the door swung open from the inside.

“Dang, dang, dang! Didn’t expect me to be early today, huh?” Yu Nian tilted her head and smiled at Li Xiang.

In reality, as she was packing things in the living room, she spotted Li Xiang through the balcony. She hurriedly grabbed her backpack and rushed out of the door.

“You…” Li Xiang was about to say something, but upon seeing Yu Nian’s new hairstyle, he held back his words. He silently looked at the person in front of him.

She stood straight on the steps, beneath the blue and white school uniform. Her shoulder-length black hair was neatly cut, and her big watery eyes blinked nervously, with a hint of tension.

Seeing Li Xiang silent for a while, Yu Nian touched her now short hair that trailed over her shoulders. Her legs unconsciously pressed together, feeling a bit awkward. She tentatively asked, “How is it? This hairstyle… is it okay?”

Yu Nian herself actually preferred long hair. The wavy curls she deliberately kept for three years in reality were now a thing of the past. After transmigrating into a high school student, time suddenly became tight, and every morning she woke up resembling a lion with blown hair. She simply didn’t have the time to manage it, so she cut it for the sake of convenience.

Li Xiang nonchalantly responded with an “en” without much reaction. “Let’s go, it’s time for class.”

After a holiday break, the tranquil and chilly campus returned to its former vitality. Students were bustling around the campus, chatting and laughing, clearly still carrying the excitement of the vacation.

“Ai, why did you guys take so long to get here ah!”

As today was the first day of school, the traffic on the road was extremely congested. Li Xiang and Yu Nian took an extra fifteen minutes to reach the school. Before even reaching the school gate, they saw Zhang Chuanze waving at them from not far away.

As they approached, Yu Nian raised her hand and greeted with a smiling face, “Morning ah, Da Chuan.”

“What morning ya. You guys are late, the bell is about to ring. Hurry to the classroom. I think almost everyone is here,” Zhang Chuanze urged.

As Zhang Chuanze had predicted, when they reached the entrance of Class One, it was already nearly full.

Yu Nian peered inside from behind Li Xiang’s shoulder.

Well, it’s worthy of being Class One. On the first day of school, there are already people who are completely oblivious to the outside world, devoting themselves entirely to solving problems.

Yu Nian could already imagine the days to come, how she would be caught up in the storm of intense studying.

All for the sake of the male and female lead in the novel, I’m truly sacrificing myself.

Yu Nian couldn’t help but be moved by her own dedication once again.

Liu Manman arrived earlier and was already seated by this time.

Sitting beside her was a girl whom Yu Nian vaguely remembered. It seemed that her name was Xue Xue, a xueba who ranked in the top ten in the previous semester.

The two of them were chatting happily, and the scene looked very harmonious.

Due to the arrival of the three, especially with Li Xiang, the scattered gazes in the classroom instantly turned towards the door.

“Feels like there’s not much seats left.” Faced with the curious and assessing looks of everyone, Zhang Chuanze was accustomed to it. Muttering to himself, he walked in and began to look around for a seat.

Li Xiang followed calmly, while Yu Nian trailed behind him slowly, resembling a little tail.

At this moment, noticing Li Xiang searching for a seat, some girls with available seats beside them blushed and, with a hint of shyness, they gathered the courage to invite him.

Witnessing this, Yu Nian, who had no one inviting her as she walked behind, couldn’t help but sigh, “Damn protagonist halo.”

Liu Manman naturally noticed the three when Yu Nian passed by. She took the initiative to greet her, her words carrying a hint of apology, “Nian Nian, why did you guys just arrive ah? Sorry ah, I forgot to save you a seat.”

Liu Manman looked genuinely remorseful, and every word she spoke was sincere, making it hard not to be convinced.

Being remembered by Liu Manman like this, Yu Nian was a bit flattered. She waved her hands repeatedly and smiled at Liu Manman, saying, “It’s okay, it’s okay. It was me who was late.”

However, as she walked past, a trace of shrewdness flashed in Liu Manman’s eyes. She stood up and pretended to be enthusiastic, saying, “Nian Nian, let me help you find a seat.”

Yu Nian was about to refuse as she didn’t want to trouble Liu Manman with such a small matter. However, before she could speak, Liu Manman had already stood up and started looking for a seat on her own.

She glanced around, and as if casually, she noticed the almost deserted seats in the last row of the classroom, nearly accompanied by a trash can. Turning back with joy, she said, “Nian Nian, there’s still a seat. Do you want to sit there?”

Li Xiang, not far away, subconsciously followed Liu Manman’s direction with a glance, furrowing his brows slightly, seemingly disapproving.

However, when Yu Nian saw that seat, her eyes lit up. She hurriedly walked over, afraid someone else might take it. Before sitting down, she thanked Liu Manman sincerely.

After sitting down, the joy in Yu Nian’s heart was evident. Even Liu Manman, who had initially intended to embarrass her, couldn’t help but wonder if this person was genuinely stupid or just pretending.

After all, who wouldn’t want to sit in the front row of Class One? They didn’t come here to slack off.

In the eyes of these high-achieving students, the last row was undoubtedly reserved for those who didn’t want to study.

Even though it was the only option left and recommended by Liu Manman, once Yu Nian took her seat, those onlookers would display an expression of disdain that said “It’s really like that”, thinking that her placement in Class One was purely a stroke of luck.

However, Yu Nian didn’t care about what they thought. She was quite satisfied with her seat.

From here, looking out of the window, she could see the expansive sports field. With a broad view and a pleasant scene, she could observe the entire class. Occasionally, if she wanted to be secretly lazy, she wouldn’t be easily discovered.

Yu Nian was happily envisioning her future lazy life when suddenly a black school bag dropped in front of her.

Yu Nian’s initial reaction was that it looked familiar. When she looked up again, Li Xiang was standing next to the empty desk beside her, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.

Now it was Yu Nian’s turn to be surprised. Pointing at Li Xiang, she stammered, “Yo-you, you’re not planning to sit here, right?”

Oh my goodness, if that’s the case, how can I happily slack off in the future ah!

Please, no! Please, no!

Yu Nian prayed wildly in her heart.

Li Xiang, who had some discomfort in his heart, felt instantly refreshed seeing Yu Nian’s dumbfounded expression.

He slowly sat down, picked up his own school bag, and leaned over. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, he casually said, “If I don’t sit here, how can I supervise you? Don’t even think about slacking off.”

Yu Nian, who really wanted to slack off: …

For a moment, Yu Nian seriously suspected that this male lead was here to restrain her.
