Chapter 98: Eating Melon Seeds

Ding Yu was speechless.

Cheng Ling, who was second from the bottom, was still harping on him being first from the bottom?

“Don’t be arrogant. I can surpass you with just a few simple lessons.”

Cheng Ling lifted her chin at him. “Let’s wait and see.”

Then, she continued eating her melon seeds.

For some reason, when he saw Cheng Ling eating the melon seeds, he suddenly felt like eating them, too. Although he normally wasn’t interested in it.

“Give me a handful.” Ding Yu reached out his hand.

Cheng Ling grabbed a handful from her pocket and placed it in Ding Yu’s hand. Cheng Ling’s fingertips touched Ding Yu’s palm, and in that instant, Ding Yu felt as if he had been electrocuted.

He quickly withdrew his hand, and two-three melon seeds fell to the ground.

He quickly pretended to lower his head to pick up the melon seeds, taking the opportunity to hide his reaction just now.

Cheng Ling didn’t pay much attention to it.

She had just turned to the page about one of the herbs which she had only seen in ancient books but not in real life.

The seeds of this herb had been lost for a long time.

It was Purple Iris.

Cheng Ling silently read the name of this herb.

This herb was very effective for many ailments. Cheng Ling had always wanted to successfully cultivate it.

This herb was also very important to detoxify Lu Qi’s body.

However, if she couldn’t find it, she could only replace it with herbs with similar effects. But the efficacy would be greatly reduced.

Ding Yu had already opened his Chinese book. He was reading classical Chinese while eating melon seeds.

These melon seeds were quite delicious.

Ding Yu thought as he was eating.

The other students in the class accidentally caught a glimpse of this inexplicable harmonious scene.

“What’s going on? Young Master Ding not only came so early today, but he’s also reading now?”

“Is it a trend now to eat melon seeds while reading? Why are the two famous people in our class doing this?”

The two people who were being called the famous people by the class didn’t know what the classmates in the class thought of them at this moment.

Cheng Ling was thinking about how to cultivate this kind of medicinal herb, while Ding Yu was frowning while staring at the classical Chinese characters in the Chinese books.

What exactly were the words in the book? Why couldn’t he even read them?

Ding Yu didn’t go against her today, so Cheng Ling’s morning passed by smoothly.

During lunchtime, as usual, Cheng Ling packed her lunch and was eating alone in the corner of the canteen.

This table had almost become her regular dining table. She sat with her back facing everyone, completely immersed in her world.

Suddenly, there seemed to be a new group of people at the table behind her. Cheng Ling heard a familiar voice. It was Cheng Xiao and her group of besties.

“Xiao Xiao, is next Monday your grandfather’s birthday? My mother said that our family received the invitation.”

“Yes, it’s my grandfather’s 78th birthday. You’re all welcome to come over and play.”

“Okay, okay, definitely we’ll go! Who else did your family invite?”

“I’m not too sure about the details. All the big families in the capital have probably been invited.”

“Then you must have invited the Lu family and the Ding family as well. Xiao Xiao, I heard that Young Master Lu, Lu Xiu, went to the banquet especially for you the last time. Moreover, you have such a good relationship with Young Master Ding in school. I really envy you. Everyone likes you.”

Cheng Ling heard Cheng Xiao chuckle, but she did not deny the girl’s words.

Cheng Ling lowered her eyes and drank a mouthful of soup.

The soup in the cafeteria had always been like clear water, it was tasteless.

“Let’s not talk about me. Let’s talk about something else.”

“Oh yes, the selection for the physics competition is starting this Friday. Xiao Xiao, did you sign up?”

“How could Xiao Xiao not sign up? She is the little princess of physics. I have never seen a girl who can learn physics so well. Definitely, Xiao Xiao will be selected.”

Everyone recognized Cheng Xiao’s ability in physics. Sun Qi’s physics questions were very tricky, but Cheng Xiao could be the top three in physics every time.

“Well, I signed up. I’m still a little nervous. This physics competition is so formal. I hope I can win glory for our school.”

“Of course. Who else is in our class? Our school should have three spots.”

“Did Prince Charming Gu sign up, too?”

Cheng Ling recalled the Prince Charming Gu that they were talking about was probably Gu Nan, who came to her class last week.

She tidied up the table, wiped off a few drops of soup with a tissue, and stood up to dispose of it.

“Sister, you’re here, too!”

Cheng Ling ignored Cheng Xiao again and walked away.

“How can she behave in this manner!”

Cheng Xiao’s face darkened for a moment, but it resumed quickly.

“It’s okay, this is Sister’s personality.”

Cheng Xiao lowered her head and continued to eat.

Cheng Ling, the worse your performance was, the lower you would be trampled by me!

Next Monday, at Old Master Cheng’s birthday party, the candidates for the physics competition would be confirmed by then. She was confident that she could enter.

When that time came, Cheng Ling would be even more worthless!
