Halfway through the class, the hopeless student Xi Xingjiang finally arrived. When he found that his books had been thrown to an empty seat at the side, imdiately infuriated, he bellowed, “Who ssed with my things?!”
The people around trembled and looked at the sleeping Lin Jingyuan.
Xi Xingjiang wanted to kick him, but the ntor reprimanded him solemnly from the front, “The Viscount is late again today, get seated quickly!”
Xi Xingjiang pouted as he moved his books back, and sat down beside Lin Jingyuan.
Lin Jingyuan was awakened by his movents and looked up at the person who woke him up angrily. The two glared at each other for a long ti. In the end, Xi Xingjiang figured that he should not be petty with soone younger than him, and changed the subject, “Isn’t Little Lu coming today? Where is she sitting?”
Lin Jingyuan answered impatiently, “Why do you care so much about my sister? What does it matter to you where she sits?”
Xi Xingjiang snorted and ignored the control freak. He swept his eyes across the room before him, and froze. He elbowed Lin Jingyuan, who sprawled down again, “Why is Little Lu sitting with Song Jinglan?”
Lin Jingyuan sat upright, and when he saw the two figures in front of him, he was aggrieved to death, “What? Why did he let Little Lu sit with him instead of ! How can Third Brother be like this!”
Lin Feilu, who was dozing off in class in front, had already woken up because of Xi Xingjiang’s arrival.
Song Jinglan watched the little girl lift her head, and touched the corner of her mouth, relieved to find that she was not drooling.
He could not help laughing, and then put down the hand he had been holding up. Lin Feilu straightened her back and asked in a hushed voice, “Your highness, I wasn’t discovered just now, right?”
Song Jinglan also replied in a hushed voice, “No.”
Satisfied, she yawned, and whispered in a small voice, “This ntor’s lecture is so boring, it’s not interesting at all.”
Song Jinglan encouraged her, “ntor Luo is older and respectable, so his lectures will sound dry. The other two ntors have experienced traveling around the world when they were younger, and thus they have gained and learned a lot, so they will include their experience and quotes from classics in their lectures, and so you won’t be bored.”
Lin Feilu felt her spirits heightened.
In the imperial school, there were also break periods in between the classes. The bell would ring every two hours for a break period for as long as a stick of incense.
(E/N: Around 5-10 minutes, incenses are made/done so that they actually burn with sowhat accuracy of timing)
There was also no issue with being held back in classes. As soon as the bell tolled, the class got up to leave without a salute before the ntor could even finish his sentence. The hall suddenly beca lively, but Lin Feilu was still flipping through the pages in her seat, while Lin Jingyuan rushed to the front in a hurry.
He did not speak, and only sat next to Lin Feilu and looked at her begrudgingly.
“…”
Xingjiang followed behind him, and teased him from the side, “Little bean, your Fourth Brother is aggrieved, comfort him with a few words.”
Lin Jingyuan glared at him fiercely, “Change seats! You sit here, and Little Lu will sit at the back with !”
Xi Xingjiang refused rcilessly, “No, then how can I sleep?”
Lin Jingyuan was heartbroken, “Is the imperial school a place for you to sleep?!”
Xi Xingjiang was speechless for a mont, “… Look who’s talking.”
The two of them were always bickering whenever Lin Feilu saw them, and one of them was her own brother, which was quite embarrassing. She stole a glance at Song Jinglan and found that he seed to be completely indifferent, minding his own business calmly.
The two of them were still bickering when a lofty voice suddenly interrupted them, “I heard that Fifth Sister is starting imperial school, why is she sitting here?”
