Qingteng's Mind - Middle School Era

Chapter 1358 Stingy
Wang Xiaoxiao had truly witnessed Ma P's skill.

During the fourth period, which was only halfway through self-study, Geng Xinyu patted Ling Mengchu and handed her a piece of paper.

"You finished writing so quickly, it's really well written."

Ling Mengchu was filled with excitement, and even her lowered voice couldn't hide her surprise.

Geng Xinyu laughed and said, "Look, no, I'll revise it again."

“No, no, no,” Ling Mengchu waved her hand as she read, “No need to change it, no need to change it, it’s perfect as it is. It’s really well written.”

Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but click her tongue. When did Ling Mengchu's flattery skills improve so dramatically?

She only remembered that Ling Mengchu was used to listening to He Shiling and habitually acting coquettishly towards her. She didn't remember Ling Mengchu flattering anyone!

Is this a sign that He Shiling's absence has drastically changed her personality? Or is it a genuine display of her true nature?

"You should do your homework first," Ling Mengchu said with a soft laugh. "I'll take a good look at this."

Geng Xinyu nodded.

Ling Mengchu turned around happily.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but rest her chin on her hand and fall into deep thought.

Geng Xinyu glanced at Wang Xiaoxiao out of the corner of her eye, then lowered her head with a slight twitch of her lips and began writing her homework.

She waited for their follow-up.

The classroom was quiet, with the occasional sound of turning pages and the constant ticking of the clock on the back wall.

When the bell rang, Wang Xiaoxiao glanced around discreetly. Xiaoyu was still diligently doing her homework, Ling Mengchu in front of her was also writing something attentively, and Fang Di in front of her to the right was quietly drawing.

Just as Wang Xiaoxiao was about to stand up, she suddenly saw Wang Xinyi turn around and look at her.

"Shall we go downstairs for a walk?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaoxiao immediately stood up and waved to Wang Xinyi: "Let's go, let's go through the back door."

Wang Xinyi walked over cheerfully, and the two of them left their seats one after the other, heading towards the back door of the classroom.

Geng Xinyu closed her notebook and pulled out a collection of essays by Xi Murong from her drawer to read.

Guo Wenwen gently patted the book in front of Ling Mengchu.

Ling Mengchu pretended not to see it and continued writing her homework.

Guo Wenwen leaned closer: "Want to go downstairs for a walk together?"

Ling Mengchu glanced at Guo Wenwen and said, "I thought you went downstairs with Wang Xinyi and the others."

Guo Wenwen smiled gently: "No, I'm waiting for you."

Waiting for her? Ling Mengchu lowered her head, then raised it again and smiled at Guo Wenwen: "I don't want to go."

"Oh," Guo Wenwen chuckled, "Alright then, I won't go either, I'll stay here with you."

Ling Mengchu was taken aback. What did that mean?
Did she overhear her conversation with Xiaoyu earlier? Did she know that Xiaoyu gave her the "love letter," or rather, the lyrical essay?

He abandoned her during recess, left her alone, and now he's back looking for her. He really doesn't do things without a reason!
Ha, I used to think she was someone I could befriend. I was so blind!

"I haven't done my homework yet," Ling Mengchu lowered her head and continued writing the homework in front of her. "I'll do my homework first."

She won't misjudge this time.

"Okay, I'm going to do my homework now," Guo Wenwen said softly, returning to her seat. "Call me anytime if you need anything."

Upon hearing the sound, Ling Meng glanced at Guo Wenwen, remained silent, lowered her head, and continued doing her homework.

Call her if you need anything? Ha!

What could possibly be wrong with her? Besides, if something really happened, would we need to call her? Before, both Xiaolingzi and Xiaoyu were busy, but now, Xiaoyu is free.

If she needs anything, she will naturally look for Xiaoyu.

Besides, Xiaoyu writes better lyrical prose than I do; do you think Guo Wenwen can do that?!
Ling Mengchu pursed her lips and turned to the next page of her book. "What did you say? Xiaoyu wrote a love letter for Xiaomeng?"

In the stairwell, Wang Xinyi let out a soft cry, attracting the attention of passersby.

"What love letter?" Wang Xiaoxiao tugged at Wang Xinyi's cheek. "That's a lyrical essay. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand it, or it will cause misunderstandings."

“Oh, oh, oh,” Wang Xinyi laughed, looking around, “I misspoke, it’s prose, prose.”

The next second, he leaned closer in and whispered, "Did you see what it said?"

Wang Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No."

“You really are something,” Wang Xinyi shook her head, pulled Wang Xiaoxiao around, and ran upstairs. “You’re so smart, but you’ve made a foolish mistake. Of course, we have to be the first to see this kind of thing.”

"Why did you go back?" Wang Xiaoxiao was pulled so hard she stumbled. "Didn't you say you were going downstairs for a walk?"

How are we getting upstairs now? She's waiting to use the restroom.

As we had agreed beforehand, going downstairs for a walk meant going to the restroom.

"not going."

"Why aren't you going?" Wang Xiaoxiao shook off Wang Xinyi's hand. "If you're not going, I'll go by myself."

"Okay, go by yourself." Wang Xinyi ran upstairs with a "thump thump thump".

"This is really unreliable." Wang Xiaoxiao muttered with a sigh, turned around, and suddenly saw a person appear out of nowhere. She couldn't help but take a step back and lean against the handrail. "It's broad daylight, how scary."

Where did this person come from? It was a jet-black head pointing directly at her, it scared her to death!
Tang Ji paused, looked up at Wang Xiaoxiao, glanced around, then looked back at Wang Xiaoxiao, and pointed to himself: "Talk to me?"

"Talking to a ghost?" Wang Xiaoxiao said irritably, clapped her hands, and walked downstairs.

What does this mean? Tang Ji turned around and looked at Wang Xiaoxiao's departing figure, raising an eyebrow. Had she taken the wrong medicine today?

He was walking perfectly fine, what did he do to deserve this?

Let her be. She's gone now, so there's no need for him to be so petty.

Tang Ji grinned and walked upstairs.

"Let me see it." Wang Xinyi leaned over the pile of books in front of Ling Mengchu, blinking at her.

Ling Mengchu pretended not to hear and continued doing her homework.

Geng Xinyu smiled and turned another page of the collection of essays in front of her.

Did Xinxin leave Xiaoxiao behind and run back on her own?

"Let me see it, let's share this beautiful writing," Wang Xinyi leaned over, grabbed Ling Mengchu's arm, and shook it. "It's not a love letter, what are you afraid of?"

Ling Mengchu paused, stopped writing, and looked at Wang Xinyi: "Stop fidgeting, you've written the words wrong."

After saying that, she broke free from Wang Xinyi's arm, took the tape, and stuck it on the homework: "Can you please stop making things worse? This is due."

"Then let me see it," Wang Xinyi said with a persistent laugh. "Let me see it, don't be so stingy."

Ling Mengchu stopped and looked at Wang Xinyi: "I'm stingy, this was written for me by Xiaoyu."

"Didn't you say it was for requesting songs?"

Geng Xinyu's voice came from behind, causing Ling Mengchu's expression to freeze, while Wang Xinyi instantly burst into laughter.

"Little Rain is the best."

After saying that, he reached out to Ling Mengchu, "Take it out. Let's enjoy this beautiful article together."

Ling Mengchu reached into the drawer, then paused, smiled, and said, "I haven't finished reading it yet. I'll give it to you when I'm done."

As soon as he finished speaking, the school bell rang again.

Wang Xinyi sighed and turned away.

Ling Mengchu smiled; the school bell had come at just the right time.
