A Young Woman's Heart

"I'm from Class 3 of Grade 11. Next week is your class's duty week, so I'm handing over all the duty roster items to you now."

"Oh, okay, where's the stuff?"

The girl blinked at Li Hongran a few times, then hurriedly handed over the two plastic bags.

One contained armbands and sashes, while the other contained a notebook for recording demerit points.

Is there anything else?

“That’s all—” The girl shook her head vigorously. “Then, you guys arrange each student’s position yourselves. The week’s duty roster will officially begin next Monday.”

"Don't worry, we know that perfectly well." Li Hongran waved her hand, indicating that she knew. "Thanks."

"You're welcome……"

"Hey." Watching the girl walk around the corner, Le Tingfeng came up and nudged Li Hongran's arm playfully. "Your junior seems to like you, huh?"

"What do you mean by 'meaning'? Even if it means something, so what? We're almost graduating, you know."

"Hey, damn it, Lao Li, you didn't actually have any other ideas, did you?"

"You little brat, you dare come any closer?" Li Hongran's arm clamped around Le Tingfeng's neck like an iron clamp. "You're finished!"

"Damn it, I'm outta here!"

"Trying to run? Impossible!" Li Hongran grabbed Le Tingfeng tightly and then scooped him up from the bottom of the sea.

Ye Wen, who was passing by the classroom door, saw this scene and shook her head helplessly: "You guys, don't cause any trouble later, or you'll have to be responsible for it for the rest of your lives."

"Oh dear, I'm injured, Lao Li, you'll have to take responsibility for me for the rest of your life~" Le Tingfeng deliberately said in a coquettish voice. Before Li Hong could even get goosebumps, he gagged a few times because he was disgusted. "Ugh—disgusting."

"You fucking—something's not right with you." Li Hongran punched Le Tingfeng on the shoulder. "Go away, stop messing around, I'm going downstairs to buy a drink."

"Come on, come on, it's on me." Le Tingfeng walked ahead generously. The two who were just fooling around were now arm in arm, looking like best buddies.

"Lele, do you want to go to the toilet?"

"hold head high."

Hua Yinyin waited for Wang Jiale to put the textbooks in the drawer, one hand in her skirt pocket: "I wonder what Xiao Yaoyao is doing right now."

"It must be very pleasant."

"Just let me enjoy it once, please—"

"Yinyin's grades are about the same as mine, right?"

"Hmph, my Chinese is way better than yours!"

"...It's like you're saying she got a much higher total score than me." Wang Jiale took her arm, just like the other girlfriends walking together on the road, "Don't let it be that you finally get a high score, only to have to go on a school trip instead."

"...It can't be that unlucky, right?" Although she said that, Hua Yinyin couldn't help but start counting the days. "May 1st...I think that's a Wednesday?"

"Hmm—it should be?"

"The results are announced on Wednesday? No way, there's a real possibility!"

"Right, I hope you're not so unlucky."

"Ah Wen seemed to have said that there are no holidays for school trips."

"Yes, we have classes every day, but there are no evening self-study sessions."

"Actually, the time should be about the same, but it feels like I'll be so tired."

Wang Jiale gently stroked the railing with his other hand, nodded, but didn't continue the topic: "By the way, next week is duty week, Yinyin, what position do you want?"

"Wasn't this something arranged by Awen or Wanyan?"

"We have such a good relationship with the class monitor, so there's definitely no problem for us to choose the positions we like."

"There's nothing particularly special to choose from, right? Just the kind where they check at the door of each classroom during eye exercises. It feels the easiest, and you don't have to do eye exercises."

"I'm planning to work as a hostess/usher."

"Huh, when did Lele become so fond of being the center of attention?"

"After all, this is the last time I'll be on duty during my high school year, so I should leave a lasting impression, right?"

"Want to make a lasting impression? That's easy, just spend the night at school!"

"People are different..."

"What's the difference?" Hua Yinyin pouted. "Staying overnight at school is really fun. Want to come along next time?"

“I—reject—” Wang Jiale took a deep breath and said 'righteously'.

Lunch is also served on Saturdays, of course.

The cafeteria was open as usual. Since only senior high school students came, it wasn't crowded, and there was plenty of time to eat.

The only downside is that although all the cafeteria windows are open on Saturdays, they only offer the same set meal.

Sometimes, when faced with dishes I don't like, I have no choice but to buy instant noodles from the convenience store if I really don't want to eat them.

—The boss is probably the happiest person about this.

"Ah, Xiao Yaoyao, you're here so early! It's so nice not having to go to class..." Hua Yinyin and the other girls had just entered the cafeteria when they saw Mo Xueyao already sitting by the window, Li Wanyan had just sat down with her plate, and Mo Xiaoxiao and Chali were still getting their food in front of them.

"Then you should do better on the test next time. Hurry up and get your food, we've saved you a seat."

"What are we eating today?" Hua Yinyin asked curiously, looking over there.

"Cod fillet, curry potatoes, and beef tenderloin with green peppers."

"Not bad at all!"

"Yes, there are fruits and snacks. The fruit is star fruit and the snack is egg tarts. Hmm, I don't know if there will be any left when it's your turn. Anyway, we all took egg tarts, but Xiaoxue seems to want star fruit."

"Ugh—damn it, I want to cut in line! Xiaoxue—! Let me cut in!" Hua Yinyin ran over quickly without any attempt to hide it, and naturally moved in front of Mr. Xue.

“Cutting in line is wrong,” Mr. Xue said with a serious expression.

"What's wrong? Just once!"

"No."

"So what do you want?"

"You can have this spot; I'll go to the back."

"...Hello, Xiaoxue?" Hua Yinyin was a little confused.

"What an upright Mr. Xue!" Mo Xueyao gave a thumbs up.

Chapter 236 Ye Wen's Request

"Wanyan? Are you writing down next week's duty roster?"

"Mm." Li Wanyan nodded gently, traced a line on the paper with her pen, and then wrote Mo Xueyao's name behind the etiquette station.

"Ugh... why am I assigned to the etiquette position again?"

“Of course, the etiquette position should be filled by students with good looks.” Li Wanyan’s logic was quite rigorous, leaving Mo Xueyao at a loss for where to begin her rebuttal.

"Same as always, three boys and three girls?"

"Ah."

"I think Lele mentioned at noon that she wanted to stand guard at the ceremonial post?"

"I wrote it for her."

"Who else are you planning to side with?"

Li Wanyan didn't answer, but glanced at the list next to her and quickly searched for a suitable candidate.

"Xuan Anyi".

"...The three of us standing together feel like a cell phone signal bar..."

"That's just right."

Where are the boys?

"Li Hongran, An Ruosu."

"There's one more?"

Li Wanyan hesitated for a few seconds in silence before writing Chen Cheng's name on the back.

There is no evening self-study on Saturdays; school ends after the fourth period.

And at this moment, it was almost time to get out of school.

Forty minutes might be a long time for students in class, but for Mo Xueyao and her friends who have free time, it passes in the blink of an eye.

Before the school bell rang, a series of hurried footsteps echoed down the corridor.

Li Hongran, slightly out of breath, leaned against the door frame with one hand and called out into the band room, "Class monitor! Wen wants you to go to her office; she needs to talk to you."

"Now?" Mo Xueyao asked.

"Yes, now, I'm going downstairs first, class is about to start." Li Hongran said, turning around and running away. The class bell rang at that moment, which made him quicken his pace even more.

"I guess it's some arrangements for the week's duty?" Mo Xueyao guessed, but she remained lazily lying on the table, not intending to go with Li Wanyan.

Anyway, it's obvious that it will be some troublesome things.
