Ming Jing had a book spread out on her knees. She flipped a page and said lightly, “Affectionate concern for the young is only human nature.”
As for the relationship between the three of them, Han Suwen didn’t feel it was her place to comment. All she could do was report the situation and let her young miss handle it herself.
Ming Jing glanced out the window. A row of luxury cars lined up outside the kindergarten gate, among which the white BMW didn’t stand out.
“Let’s go to school.”
Today was also the opening day of Shengde High School.
The second year was divided into liberal arts and sciences, and the first-year classes were disrupted and reclassified. The class lists were posted on the honor board in front of the second-year teaching building.
Today was just registration and book distribution, with formal classes starting tomorrow.
In Class 2A, students who hadn’t seen each other for a summer break excitedly gathered together, exchanging the latest gossip.
The campus forum was constantly updating, and it was bustling because they were about to have a big star in their school.
This big star was none other than the dark horse Zhu Mingjing.
Before, Qu Feitai was their untouchable idol, like the moon in the sky, always to be looked up at.
But now, one of their classmates had shared the stage with Qu Feitai and even lived and dined with him for three days. Their relationship seemed quite good — they might even be good friends. In other words, they were only one person away from their idol, Qu Feitai.
The moment Ming Jing walked in, the class fell silent for an instant.
Forty-nine pairs of eyes were focused on her.
There was only an empty seat next to Song Yinzhang, and Ming Jing walked straight over. In the past, nobody would have dared to sit with Song, but now, everyone was silently wishing they were him.
“You left early that day, and I didn’t have a chance to ask you how you did on the exam?” Song Yinzhang recalled that Ming Jing had already left by the time he finished his test.
“Not bad. Your and Liu Muxue’s notes were a great help.”
The top six students were selected for the CMO based on their scores in the integrated competition and the final exam of the training camp. The list would be announced at the end of October.
“That’s good. I wanted to go to Jingdu with you. Ziyan owes us a meal, and there’s also Xiao Fei…” Song Yinzhang paused, glanced at Ming Jing, and smiled.
“I’ve seen the show. In fact, Xiao Fei is very simple-minded, even in the entertainment circle, he still maintains his original intention. He’s a good friend worth getting to know. I’ve grown up with Ziyan and Xiao Fei since we were young, and they can’t hide anything from us.”
Ming Jing nodded: “You’re right. He’s very talented, and his singing is really good.”
Song Yinzhang grinned, “Is that all?”
Ming Jing thought for a moment, “He’s well-behaved.”
Song Yinzhang shook his head with a smile, thinking that Xiao Fei still had a long way to go.
At this moment, a bald middle-aged man who looked like Zhang Fei walked in. As soon as he entered, more than half of the students began to wail.
Class Two-1 was a top science class, and half of the students were from the previous Yi High School’s Class 1, so they were no strangers to the man in front of them.
This was the former Yi High School Class 1’s class teacher, Zou Wei.
Everyone had suffered under Zou Wei for a long time and thought they had finally escaped, but they had jumped from the frying pan into the fire.
They could almost foresee the hardships of the coming year.
Zou Wei glanced around and paused on Ming Jing. With a stern face, he said, “After a summer break, it’s time to get your minds back in the game. Huang Yue, collect the summer homework. Li Yan, take a few people and go to the Academic Affairs Office to get the new textbooks.”
Huang Yue was the former math class representative, and Li Yan was the class leader. Zou Wei was used to them, and as there were no new class cadres yet, he continued to use them for now.
Class 1-4 is the top liberal arts class. Thanks to Ming Jing, Tao Xingxing had the honor of entering the top class and was currently getting to know her new classmates. Naturally, the focus of their discussion was Ming Jing.Upon learning that Tao Xingxing was Ming Jing’s deskmate, several girls crowded around Tao Xingxing, asking her questions. Tao Xingxing smiled and said, “Don’t worry, don’t worry, let me tell you slowly…”.
More and more people gathered around Tao Xingxing, and everyone’s curiosity about Ming Jing was matched only by their eagerness to get close to Tao Xingxing.
It was unknown who said ‘Zhu Xiangxiang is here’; the noisy class suddenly quieted down, and you could hear a pin drop.
Tao Xingxing sneered – what are the odds of running into each other.
Rumors had already spread on the campus forum that Zhu Xiangxiang was taken back by her biological mother and was no longer the Zhus’ Miss. It was said that her mother was a supermarket cashier, and her stepfather was a construction worker. If she hadn’t stepped in dog shit and become the Zhus’ fake daughter, she wouldn’t have been able to step into Shengde High School in eight lifetimes.
Especially with Ming Jing as a stark contrast, the former Shengde High School flower had now become a joke.
Why bother coming to Shengde High School? Yi High School next door would be happy to have her.
Zhu Xiangxiang sensed the mocking gazes all around her, and though she had been prepared, she still stiffened.
Zhu Xiangxiang saw a sweet and cute-looking girl provocatively staring at her, surrounded by a group of girls as if the center of a gang. Zhu Xiangxiang felt that the girl was familiar – she seemed to be one of the girls who often followed Ming Jing around.
From Class 8?
The mere thought of falling down to the same class as those from Class 8 suffocated her.
Zhu Xiangxiang looked around and finally saw a familiar face – Wu Jiajia, her former deskmate.
However, Wu Jiajia already had a deskmate, and there was only one empty spot left in the corner of the class. Zhu Xiangxiang steeled herself and went to sit there.
“Jiajia, isn’t that your former deskmate? Let’s switch places, you two must have a lot to talk about,” said Wu Jiajia’s deskmate thoughtfully.
Wu Jiajia glanced in Tao Xingxing’s direction and whispered, “No need, it’s fine as it is.”
Her deskmate looked at her, smiled and said, “Alright then.”
From beginning to end, no one in the class spoke to Zhu Xiangxiang. Zhu Xiangxiang realized that she had been isolated.
As the once esteemed school flower, she had never experienced such humiliation. Zhu Xiangxiang clenched her fists tightly, holding back the tears in her eyes.
Just bear with it, Zhu Mingjing won’t be smug for long.
When that time comes, how dare any of these fair-weather, sycophantic bastards isolate me.
At this moment, Huang Liang walked in with a big smile on his face. From a bottom-ranked class to a top-ranked one, Huang Liang had experienced an impressive rise.
Unfortunately, his prized student Ming Jing had moved to Class 1. Nevertheless, waterflows down and people rise up, and he was glad to see Ming Jing with better prospects.
After a rather boring round of self-introductions, Huang Liang grinned and said, “Let’s arrange our seats first. My old classmates should know me well, I am a very democratic homeroom teacher. The pressure of study is already high enough, there are not many extracurricular activities, so having a deskmate can be the most beautiful memory of high school life. I still remember my high school deskmate, so gentle and pretty…”.
The class erupted in laughter, and someone yelled, “Teacher, was that your first love?”
Huang Liang pretended to scowl, “What nonsense! No dating is allowed in high school! I meant to say that you’re free to choose your deskmates, as long as the other party is willing to become your deskmate.”
A student joked, “Isn’t this like matchmaking? If the eyes match, it’s a success.”
Huang Liang laughed and scolded in reply.
Zhu Xiangxiang was used to Zou Wei’s seriousness and couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Huang Liang’s clownish, unserious demeanor.
However, of all the selections, Tao Xingxing was the most popular. Everyone wanted to be her deskmate, while Zhu Xiangxiang was left alone due to a classmate’s absence due to illness.
Zhu Xiangxiang’s face could only be described as the bottom of a pot.
