Zhen Yu stopped clinging to Lu Huai and instead muttered to Han Mingyue in a low voice, "If I had known we could escape, you wouldn’t have had to go on stage in the first place."
Han Mingyue shook her head, "Even if I could escape, I wouldn’t! I have to stick with you!"
Lu Huai and Bai Xue suddenly exchanged a knowing glance and then quickly excused themselves.
Seeing that only Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue were left talking at the entrance of the classroom, Shen Qi, who had been keeping an eye on the situation from inside, really wanted to rush out and cause a ruckus, separating the two of them far apart!
But after listening to Zhen Yu’s brilliant speech, Shen Qi sohow felt she didn’t dare to face Zhen Yu anymore. It seed she lacked confidence...
—
Since Teacher Zhang required all the performance rehearsal participants to squeeze in an hour at the auditorium during lunch, the students involved only had half an hour left for eating!
Therefore, the commuting students participating in the performance had no choice but to temporarily eat lunch in the school cafeteria.
Who knows what Gu Qing was thinking! Just as Zhen Yu and Bai Xue had found a spot to sit down, Gu Qing ca over with her tal tray and sat down beside Bai Xue!
The first thought that flashed through Zhen Yu’s mind was — could it be that she had so issue with the cafeteria?! Why else would people pick on her two days in a row, and both tis in the cafeteria?!
Seeing Zhen Yu staring blankly, Gu Qing couldn’t help but sneer and slowly started to speak.
"I ca over to tell you so good news! My dad has nad our little brother!" Gu Qing emphasized the word "our" heavily, which sounded sowhat grudging.
Zhen Yu listened without comnt, her facial expression not showing the slightest change.
Seeing this, Gu Qing continued to speak on her own accord.
"Our brother’s na is Gu Qingcheng! How about it? Sounds nice, doesn’t it?!"
Gu Qing thought Zhen Yu would continue to pretend not to answer, but, unexpectedly, Zhen Yu opened her mouth this ti! "Do you really want to hear what I have to say!?"
Bai Xue looked at Zhen Yu, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes.
Wasn’t it said... that we would ignore this person from now on?!
Gu Qing’s face twitched slightly! A bad premonition seed to stir in her heart.
Still, not wanting to be outdone, she spitefully nodded her head!
"Speak, then! I would indeed like to hear what that mouth of yours, you dog—"
Zhen Yu had no desire to hear Gu Qing curse at her, so she simply interrupted, "Change it quickly! Naming it so ’grandiose’ might jinx his long life!"
"YOU!" Gu Qing stood up abruptly, slamming the table, causing several drops of soup from her tray to splash out.
Bai Xue, startled, quickly stood up to avoid the ss and shouted, "Just speak! Why are you slamming the table! If you stain my uniform, will you wash it for ?! Even if you do wash it, that’s not okay! I only have this one uniform, what would I wear if you clean it and it doesn’t dry?!"
Having been infuriated by Zhen Yu and enduring Bai Xue’s incessant chatter, Gu Qing was nearly driven mad! She completely forgot she was in a public place like a cafeteria and blurted out, "Shut the hell up!"
With a decibel-breaking roar, the entire cafeteria fell silent for a mont.
In that silence, Zhen Yu picked up her tray from the table and stood up. After exchanging a glance with Bai Xue, the two quietly moved to another table and hurried to finish their al.
However, Gu Qing, who was still standing in the original spot, felt the scrutinizing glances of everyone around, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into!
Alas, the cafeteria floor was made of concrete, without a single crack to be found.
Gu Qing, with nowhere to hide, handed in her al tray without eating a single bite and slinked away with her face covered.

The school performance rehearsal was still in its initial stages, with the group dancers either arranging formations or morizing movents. They all found it quite novel.
Zhen Yu, acting like a zombie, followed everyone as they ran and jumped, bending and waving her arms, all the while making deals with contacts from two different dinsions in her mind. After much to-and-fro, she finally managed to procure the antique zither she had promised Bai Xue.
Then, she accompanied Bai Xue to find the music, physical education, and art teacher’s office, just before the last class of the evening.
However, once they knocked on the door and entered the office, Zhen Yu imdiately fell silent! She believed that this was Bai Xue’s own matter, and Bai Xue had to stand up and solve the problem herself!
Zhen Yu could provide short-term support for Bai Xue, but she couldn’t let Bai Xue rely on her for life. Just like how she treated Zhen Yan, Zhen Yu wanted everyone around her to be truly independent!
Be yourself, and only yourself!
Originally, Zhen Yu didn’t even want to accompany Bai Xue! Unfortunately, Bai Xue was just too good at acting coquettishly...
Bai Xue, nervous and anxious, faced the puzzled looks of the teachers and bravely spoke up.
"Hello, teachers! I am Bai Xue from the tenth class of the freshman year. I have a favor to ask of the music teacher..."
Even though Bai Xue’s voice was shaky when she started talking, she beca more fluent as she continued.
Even the music teacher herself never expected it! A freshman girl who had grown wild in First High School actually wanted to audition for a music specialization!
You should know! Since the establishnt of First High School, there have been students with specializations in art and sports, but music specialization was a blank slate!
You should know! All the music teachers at First High School had been on the fringes!
So! Was this her opportunity now?
With a mix of excitent and awe, the music teacher didn’t hesitate at all before agreeing to Bai Xue’s request.
She was really curious to see how far this girl, who couldn’t even afford extracurricular classes, could go on her own! If this was a really good seedling, perhaps she could create a historical precedent...
Good things take ti! It’s only the start of her freshman year! Everything is still possible!
——
On Monday evening during the first study period, all freshman classes were holding class etings.
So horoom teachers gave brief speeches before encouraging students to co forward and run for election, while others imdiately had the students do anonymous voting. However, the horoom teacher for Class One... went straight to reading a list of nas!
"Xue Song, class president! Shen Qi, vice class president!... Zhen Yu, study committee mber!..."
"These students are our Class One leaders for the upper half of the freshman year! I hope that everyone will unite and progress under their leadership. Alright! That concludes our class eting! Now, let’s continue with self-study!"
Zhang Lei knew that the students needed so ti to digest his ’autocratic’ approach, thus as soon as he finished announcing the nas, he quickly threw out a few words and made a hasty exit.
As soon as he left, Class One erupted into chaos!
"They just appointed them directly? Is that how class officers are determined at First High School?"
"No way! I asked around specially, not all classes are like this..."
"That’s too outrageous! Why should these people be appointed directly?"
"..."
