Yan Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he stepped forward to explain, "You misunderstood. I was asking my uncle how to teach students, and he used you as an example, saying that you should teach according to the student's aptitude and prescribe the right medicine for the illness."

Linlin was skeptical, but since she hadn't done anything wrong, she let the matter drop.

Su Li's mouth was covered by her brother, and her eyes kept darting around.

Su Lang gave his son a meaningful look. Sure enough, he was a chatterbox; all he knew how to do was talk.

Lin Zhilan and Linlin left hand in hand, while Su Lang followed at a distance with her son, praising Yan Yuan, "You're quite something, kid! You're quick-witted and good at making up lies!"

Jiang Chengzhou patted him on the shoulder, "Not bad, not bad at all. You lie so convincingly without batting an eye."

The uncle and nephew were joking.

Yan Yuan couldn't laugh.

Is lying a virtue?

He's probably digging his own grave.

Having already slept in the school dormitory for one night, Linlin wasn't as nervous as on the first day, and was even able to comfort her parents with a few words.

Lin Zhilan and Su Lang were really out of time, and Su Li also had to go back to school. They had to take the train home the next morning.

The group took Linlin to school before heading back.

Linlin didn't dare to look back until she entered the dormitory building, at which point her eyes welled up with tears.

When we got back to the dorm, everyone was chatting.

As soon as Linlin entered, everyone immediately fell silent.

Tomorrow is their first time undergoing military training, and everyone is both excited and nervous. After a moment of silence, they went back to their previous conversation.

Linlin didn't participate in their discussion and took her toiletries to the public bathhouse.

Everyone could tell she seemed unhappy, but no one dared to go up and ask.

Sun Lina raised her eyebrows and laughed even louder.

When Linlin returned, Dong Xiaomin put down her book and did not participate in the discussion with the others.

She is introverted, speaks softly, and always carries a book with her wherever she goes.

Everyone was new to school and wanted to find someone to accompany them. Dong Xiaomin dressed simply and was too quiet and reserved, so she was easily left behind.

Of the eight people in the dormitory, all except Dong Xiaomin and Linlin are already in couples.

After taking a shower, Linlin sat on the edge of her bed and combed her hair.

Dong Xiaomin hesitated for a moment, then walked over to her and said, "Did you see the notice downstairs? We need to gather at the playground for roll call tomorrow."

"Hmm, I see," Linlin patted the seat next to her. "Sit down and talk."

Dong Xiaomin's hometown is a rural area in an arid region, where water must be conserved, and she only takes a bath every few days.

Su Li often said that her older sister was a bookworm, but in fact Dong Xiaomin was an even bigger bookworm.

She didn't care what others did, nor did she pay attention to how often they showered or washed their hair.

But she paid attention to Linlin.

On the first day, Linlin wore a white dress, and her nightgown was also white, clean and tidy, with a faint fragrance.

Moreover, Linlin wore the nightgown all night, and still washed it the next morning.

Since her friend is clean, Dong Xiaomin also started paying attention to her own hygiene.

She had just taken a shower and her clothes were clean. She only dared to sit next to Linlin when Linlin invited her.

Linlin wasn't in the mood to talk because her parents had gone back to the island.

Sun Lina and the others were talking about military training.

The weather in the capital is currently hot and humid during the day, but cool in the morning and evening, and sunny every day.

They were talking about their fear of getting tanned and discussing going to buy face cream and clam oil together.

Sun Lina said, "I don't use those things. I buy Pechoin and Xiafei from the mall. Using other brands makes my face uncomfortable."

The others exchanged smiles and did not provoke her.

Dong Xiaomin mustered her courage and finally found a topic to talk about, "Did you buy face cream? Your skin is so delicate, you're bound to get sunburned."

Linlin nodded obediently, "I have some, but I didn't buy them; my mom made them for me."

Sun Lina scoffed, "Made by yourself? That's hilarious. Don't ruin your face with that smear; you won't even have time to cry then."

Linlin pretended not to hear and grabbed Dong Xiaomin's hand. "My mom prepared a big jar for me. Let's share it, okay?"

"Dong Xiaomin, don't listen to her. Who's going to take responsibility if your skin gets ruined by those unbranded products?"

Sun Lina comes from a dual-income family with a relatively comfortable financial situation. In addition, she did well in the college entrance examination, which immediately raised her status in the family.

With the attention from her parents and elders, as well as the praise from her neighbors, Sun Lina became somewhat arrogant after the college entrance examination.

Moreover, she always considered herself a person from the capital and felt superior to others. After being repeatedly humiliated by Linlin, she would make sarcastic remarks to Linlin whenever she had the chance.

The more Linlin ignored her, the angrier she became.

Dong Xiaomin is also a stubborn girl. Just as Linlin ignored Sun Lina, she ignored Sun Lina in the same way.

Knowing that it was made by Linlin's mother and not bought, Dong Xiaomin felt less guilty and looked at Linlin earnestly, saying, "Don't mind her. I'll use it with you. I trust you."

Linlin then smiled.

Dong Xiaomin asked her softly, "Didn't you go out to play today? Why are you unhappy?"

Linlin bit her lip, looking a little aggrieved. "My mom and dad went back to their hometown, and I miss them a little."

Dong Xiaomin couldn't understand this feeling, and could only offer a dry reassurance: "It's okay, you can go home after the New Year."

Linlin nodded, her eyes looking somewhat blank.

Dong Xiaomin didn't know how to comfort her, but then she had a sudden inspiration and pulled out one of her books. "I have a question I can't answer. Can you help me with it?"

Linlin immediately perked up and started discussing it with her.

Sun Lina punched cotton again, and was furious.

The next morning, all the new students gathered in the open space of the school's large playground for roll call.

The counselors checked the admission notices one by one, registered the number of students, and counted all the new students in their class.

Linlin was selected by the counselor to be the temporary class monitor because she was the top student in her major.

After the mobilization meeting, Linlin had to go with her counselor to distribute military training supplies to everyone.

On the first day, the whole class knew that a super beauty had joined the class. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also the top student in the grade.

The counselor looked at the students, their faces flushed, and shook his head.

There's a girl like Lin Lin in my class. These kids have lost all interest in studying. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

After receiving the supplies, the students had to follow the instructors to their dormitories to learn how to organize their belongings.

Linlin was born into a military family; her father was a soldier and her mother was a military doctor. Although she was pampered at home, she was quite capable of taking care of herself.

She didn't need to learn the "tofu block" folding technique taught by the instructor; she could fold it perfectly without even trying.

Even the instructors praised her for being amazing.

After making her own bed, Linlin would also help Dong Xiaomin tidy up.

Others wanted her to help them, but Linlin didn't do it herself; she just gave them a few pointers.
