CHAPTER 1596: CHAPTER 1597: NOT NECESSARILY

Of course, you won’t have any trouble in this regard. On one hand, your and Yan Zisu’s popularity in school is extremely high. On the other hand, just your academic achievements alone can make all the teachers view you with warmth like sunshine. Remember, in most schools, academic performance is still the primary criterion for a teacher’s, and even the administration’s, preferences.

Yan Zisu stepped into the classroom first, and in less than a minute, you wobbled in through the back door of the classroom.

As soon as you sat down, you heard Xiao Feng lean over and say, "Old Shu, I heard someone is transferring to our class today."

You yawned and asked Xiao Feng, "A guy or a girl?"

"Not sure, but I heard they’re from Tianjing."

Hearing that the transfer student is from Tianjing, you grumbled, "People from that place all have the same demeanor."

"Hehe, if it’s a guy, he might get ostracized by us. If it’s a pretty girl, it’ll be great. Strike while she’s lonely and helpless. If she’s half as good-looking as Sister-in-law, I’d pursue her relentlessly, even if it costs me everything I own."

By now, any girl with some charm has a boyfriend, even the new freshmen entering high school. After all, they’ve been through middle school, which is a cradle for budding romances.

You chuckled and, as usual, buried your head to sleep.

While in a drowsy haze, you suddenly heard Zhao Lirong’s voice: "Everyone, quiet down."

The classroom suddenly quieted down, and you slowly raised your head to look at Zhao Lirong.

"Today, we have a transfer student in our class. Let’s invite her to introduce herself. Welcome her, everyone."

After the applause, under the gaze of all the classmates, a quite pretty girl walked in from the doorway. Her attire wasn’t much different from the girls on Yuhang Street. She wore twin pigtails, and probably because she was new, her expression was slightly indifferent, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes.

Just as you said, most people transferring from Tianjing are like this. Back in the day, when you met Heavenly Fox, that guy had the same demeanor.

They think they’re from the capital and act all high and mighty as if the whole Earth revolves around them.

Of course, attractive girls are naturally more welcomed by the boys. Her appearance caused the previously lukewarm applause from the boys to become more enthusiastic.

You just lifted your head for a glance and then went back to sleeping. Honestly, you have no interest in this type of girl at all, and even find them a bit annoying.

"Hello, teacher. Hello, classmates."

The girl nodded in acknowledgment towards Zhao Lirong and all the classmates.

"People from Tianjing are really snobby," Xiao Feng said, looking at you. Seeing you lying on the desk, he decided not to disturb you and began discussing the transfer student with the classmate on his left.

"Let’s have the new student introduce herself to us."

As soon as Zhao Lirong finished speaking, the boys’ applause became even more vigorous.

The girl took a leader-like posture and glanced around. After taking in all corners of the classroom, her gaze finally settled on Bai Shu next to you. At this moment, Bai Shu had his head half-lowered, focused on his own things, completely ignoring the new classmate.

Seeing Bai Shu’s behavior, the girl smiled slightly and said in a somewhat clear voice, "I may not be the most beautiful, I may not be the smartest, I may not be the best..."

It was a peculiar opening. Hearing the girl’s words, people privately thought they had underestimated her. After all, her demeanor was indeed arrogant, rather annoying.

After a series of modest words, the girl then said loudly, "Hello, everyone. My name is Wei Bihui."

"Pff!"

Xiao Feng, having just taken a sip of warm water, heard this and couldn’t help but spray the water he hadn’t swallowed towards the desk in front of him.

It wasn’t just Xiao Feng; the entire class was choked by this new female student.

These days, we’ve seen plenty of conceited people, but never someone so shameless!

Zhao Lirong seemed to have anticipated Wei Bihui’s behavior, reacting with indifference. However, she clearly didn’t want to follow this "may not" farce any longer, so she said to Wei Bihui: "Classmate Wei, please sit by the platform for now. We’ll be rearranging seats this afternoon anyway."

Who would have thought that the moment Wei Bihui arrived, she’d start contradicting Zhao Lirong: "No, the only place in this world where I can sit is by Brother Bai’s side."

"What did she just say?" Xiao Feng quickly asked the person next to him.

"I didn’t quite catch it either," Xiao Feng’s deskmate shook his head.

At this moment, Wei Bihui disregarded the gazes of the entire class and walked slowly towards where Bai Shu sat, carrying a seemingly expensive shoulder bag.

"Hey, that bag looks like a Hermes winter limited edition. It was just released a few days ago. It’s not even on sale domestically yet!"

"No wonder she’s so snobby; turns out she’s a rich girl."

Xiao Feng’s deskmate nudged him with an elbow, laughing: "Madman, see how this chick has her eyes fixed on Bai Shu, hehe, it’s like she’s traveled a thousand miles for her lover, coming all the way from Tianjing. Tsk tsk, how touching."

Xiao Feng snorted, "Touching my ass! You fool have no foresight. Searching a thousand miles for her lover requires consent from the other side. Can’t you see Little White hasn’t even looked at her? It’s clear she’s pursuing a one-sided love. Whether it’s a thousand miles or light-years, it won’t matter."

For some reason, ever since Wei Bihui appeared, Xiao Feng felt that the big classroom suddenly only had him and Wei Bihui. Although he knew it was one-sided affection, somehow, Xiao Feng saw Wei Bihui as his future wife.

At this moment, Xiao Feng was more nervous than anyone else in the class. He was most concerned about Bai Shu’s reaction. If, as his deskmate said, Bai Shu and Wei Bihui were a couple, it meant Xiao Feng had no chance. However, if it’s just Wei Bihui’s wishful thinking, it means Xiao Feng still has a chance. Even if it’s a one-in-a-million chance, he would strive for it and fight for it!

Wei Bihui stepped gracefully to Bai Shu’s side. As she got closer to Bai Shu, she placed her previously outstretched hands behind her back, adopting a demure, adorable pose. With a sweet and charming voice, she said to Bai Shu, "Brother Bai, I’m here."

"What are you here for?" Bai Shu looked up and glanced at Wei Bihui. There was no emotional change in his eyes; if there was a difference, it was probably a sense of helplessness.

It was clear that Bai Shu not only had no affection for the wealthy girl but was somewhat repulsed. However, his demeanor kept him from making any crude gestures like you would.

"I’m obviously here to see you. Before I came, I also met Grandpa Bai and Brother Bai, and they specifically asked me to persuade you to come back early."

Bai Shu slowly lowered his head, saying softly, "I won’t go back, and besides, whatever you do has nothing to do with me. Just don’t disrupt my life."

Apparently accustomed to Bai Shu’s coldness, Wei Bihui giggled lightly and said, "It’s often said the landscape in Jiangnan is beautiful, and I also want to see it together with Brother Bai."

Bai Shu then remained silent.

Wei Bihui stood beside Bai Shu. She looked around and noticed that Bai Shu had a single desk, with nothing on his right side and you sleeping on the desk to his left.
