This event caused quite a stir at the school. Lin Xue initially thought the teacher would reprimand Lin Yun and Sun Bing and then order them to break up or sothing, but after waiting several days, there was no news.

Unexpectedly, the horoom teacher ca in during the last class in the afternoon and announced that seating arrangents would be changed.

In the end, after the adjustnts, there were only nine girls in the class, and all were paired with boys; Lin Xue and Lin Yun were separated.

"Hello, Comrade Lin Xue! We’ll be desk mates from now on! Looking forward to working with you!"

Liang Mancang smiled straightforwardly and extended his hand to greet Lin Xue. Although he was smiling, he couldn’t hide his nervousness.

Liang Mancang was from Chenxi County and was nineteen years old when he started high school, not because he started late, but because after middle school graduation he initially planned not to continue schooling. After working at ho for two years, he decided to resu his studies.

Now, since university entrance exams were no longer allowed, a high school diploma counted as high education. After obtaining it, it was easier to find jobs, and positions in factories could be higher.

Though his smile might give a goofy impression, he was quite smart, with good looks, and thus was popular among female classmates.

"Hello!" Lin Xue greeted him nonchalantly.

She initially didn’t want to change seats, but since the horoom teacher arranged it, and other classes were similar, she had no choice.

There were only nine girls in the class, and one hadn’t been attending school at all. There were just the three sisters, Sun Qianqian, Xu Hui, Wang Xiaofang, Bai Ling, and Lin Yue’e, so it was impossible for two girls to sit together.

However, seeing the boys paired up, all gleefully watching the drama unfold, Lin Xue understood that this was the reaction of people from this era.

They certainly didn’t envy those paired with girls; instead, they gleefully watched the spectacle.

Those sitting with female classmates were definitely not happy, all looking troubled, and there were few like Liang Mancang who happily greeted their new desk mate.

Sun Bing didn’t get his wish to sit with Lin Yun; instead, he was paired with another male student. Lin Yun was paired with the youngest boy in the class, only fourteen years old, reportedly admitted through an accelerated exam, very good at studies, ranking second. Because there’s a future soul, Lin Xue, he couldn’t surpass her.

Seeing Lin Xue’s indifferent deanor, Liang Mancang decided not to continue the conversation, placed his backpack down, and carefully sat.

Soon, it was ti to leave school. Lin Xue packed her backpack and stood up, only to see Liang Mancang quickly stand up as well.

"Lin Xue, I have a bicycle. Would you need a ride ho?"

Lin Xue was quite surprised. This person was quite bold; there weren’t many who openly started conversations like this, particularly saying they would take her ho in front of the entire class.

"No, thanks! It’s inappropriate!" Lin Xue clearly refused, and told him it was inappropriate, indicating she didn’t like him, right? Lin Xue thought, if he liked her, he would stop after hearing this.

"We’re desk mates! It’s only right to look after each other! Don’t misunderstand ! Everyone shouldn’t misunderstand either!" Liang Mancang exhibited a self-righteous posture, unafraid of rumors, which made Lin Xue feel a bit embarrassed.

This auntie-like heart assud he wanted to pursue her? Such thoughts weren’t desirable in the future!

After so internal reflection, Lin Xue looked at Liang Mancang and spoke up.

"Desk mates are just classmates after all! We’re not familiar enough for you to take ho! Besides, I have a bicycle!"

This speech made herself feel a bit distant and too formalizing, considering they’ve been classmates for so long, saying they weren’t familiar didn’t sit well. Yet, Liang Mancang’s reaction was jaw-dropping.

"Comrade Lin Xue! You’re mistaken!" Liang Mancang said seriously, his expression serious and earnest. Lin Xue pointed to herself, mistaken? Mistaken about what? She quickly got her answer.

"I’ve looked at the student data from the horoom teacher; you’re only eighteen, while I’m nineteen! So you shouldn’t call yourself my elder sister. If anything, calling Brother Liang is also acceptable!"

Lin Xue was flustered in the wind! What kind of person was this? Couldn’t even find people’s main points.

"Liang Mancang! Why aren’t you heading ho now that school’s over?" At this mont, Sun Bing ca over to rescue Lin Xue.

"Comrade Sun Bing, wasn’t I just about to take my desk mate ho? Why haven’t you gone to eat yet?" Liang Mancang replied earnestly, not seeing any issue with himself.

"She has her own bicycle, does she need you to take her? Hurry up and leave!" Sun Bing already knew the guy’s personality well, knew that he never found the main point in conversations. Not to ntion any implications would be impossible for him to grasp, so he straightforwardly hooked his arm around his neck and started heading out.

Lin Xia ca over, covering her mouth to stifle a laugh. Seeing her eldest sister paired with Liang Mancang as desk mates had amused her, and seeing this situation only made her chuckle more.

"What are you laughing about?" Lin Yun ca over with a flushed face because when Sun Bing had just pulled Liang Mancang out, they exchanged glances.

"I’m laughing that our elder sister hit the jackpot with such an extraordinary desk mate! Second sister, you don’t know, this Liang Mancang is incredibly stubborn. He’d refuse to change his mind even if ten bulls tried pulling him away!" Lin Xia couldn’t help but laugh more as she spoke.

Her personality was lively and cheerful. Even though boys and girls rarely interacted at this ti, she could still chat a little with the boys in class.

Thus, she knew this Liang Mancang was quite smart, pretty good at studies, just a bit straightforward. Just now, he probably considered her eldest sister as part of his own group! Hence, there was this scene of him claiming it was his duty to take her ho.

"Don’t say nonsense; we’re just desk mates, all classmates. How he is doesn’t concern our elder sister!" Lin Yun glanced at Lin Xia with warning.

Lin Xia quickly zipped her mouth shut. She shouldn’t speak recklessly; if soone misunderstood, then what?

"Let’s go! I’ll make cold noodles for you tonight. It’s so hot, eating cold, chilly noodles is the most comfortable!" Lin Xue didn’t take it to heart. After all, they’re just desk mates! What was there to it.

By this ti, most of the boarding students had left, and the day students were eager to head ho; only a few of them were left in the class, including Sun Qianqian.

"Alright! Hurry up! Let’s have a race to see who gets ho first!" Lin Xia now grinned, eager to dash out.

"Qianqian, do you want to go have cold noodles? I’ll take you!" Lin Yun, as the soon-to-be sister-in-law, extended an invitation to her little sister-in-law.

"I won’t go, even though I really want to eat the cold noodles that elder sister made, but I’d have to co back tonight, that’s a bit troubleso!" Sun Qianqian giggled as she clung to Lin Yun’s arm.

Her expression showed her craving, which made Lin Xue shake her head, "Let’s go! Don’t co back tonight, stay at our place, and we can go to school together tomorrow!"

"Right! Hurry! I’ll take you! Second sister might not be able to ride with you, hurry up, I’m already hungry!" Lin Xia ran back, pulling her along without further ado.

Sun Qianqian, having wanted to go initially, now half-heartedly went along.

On the way, Lin Xia cycled fast, cheering behind for Lin Yun to catch up.

Lin Xue rode lightly and freely, certainly taking the lead, pondering in her heart that Wang Cheng should co soon too. She had already prepared warehouse spaces here.

If she didn’t leverage these famine years to earn more money, there wouldn’t be funds to build once the economy opened up.
