Bai Ziyu’s soft, sticky voice was very light, yet at this moment it seemed especially powerful.
Luo Yunzhi was a bit stunned and couldn’t help looking at her.
That small body of the other girl seemed packed full of determination.
She opened her mouth, yet didn’t know how to respond at all.
The sunlight from outside the window spilled over her body, but right now Luo Yunzhi felt that the little loli’s words were even warmer than that sunlight.
It was something she had never experienced before.
Called care.
“Okay. I’m looking forward to it.”
The corners of Luo Yunzhi’s mouth curved into a slight smile.
She smoothed her hair, letting it hang by her sides.
“If that day really comes… I’ll definitely rely on you a lot.”
The hand she was holding tightened a little on its own.
She had to admit that most of the choices in her life had been wrong, yet sometimes a person couldn’t always be unlucky.
Just like right now.
She was very fortunate.
Dong dong dong.
“Come in.”
“Sorry to disturb you, Teacher.”
“It’s fine.”
Inside the classroom, a math class was still going on. Luo Yunzhi lightly knocked on the door.
Only after receiving a response did she push the door open and walk into the classroom.
The math teacher stood on the platform with chalk in hand.
Upon hearing the sound she glanced toward the doorway, then lost interest and pulled her gaze back.
Because she already knew about the leave request, of course she wouldn’t pursue the lateness.
“Go back to your seat. She can sit in that empty one.” The teacher pointed in a direction and spoke.
“Alright, thank you, Teacher.” Luo Yunzhi thanked her, then pulled the little loli toward her own seat, walking a bit hurriedly.
Only after returning to the seat did she let out a breath of relief.
The girl sat in her former place, while Bai Ziyu moved a stool over and sat beside her.
The little loli turned her gaze and looked around. Although it wasn’t her first time here, for some reason a few traces of curiosity still filled her.
But it quickly faded.
After all, most schools… weren’t that different. Aside from this position of “back row by the window, the king’s hometown” being a little interesting.
It was no different from an ordinary classroom. Above the blackboard still hung the classic slogan: “Study hard and make progress every day.” That kind of terrifying thing.
Bai Ziyu looked a bit disdainful, hummed lightly, and wanted to tip her chair back so the front legs hung in the air, rocking back and forth to play.
Then she fell silent.
She clenched her silver teeth.
As for the reason… it was very simple. The little loli wasn’t tall enough.
Sitting there, aside from swinging her own feet, she was almost raging powerlessly.
There was nothing she could do.
She could only jump down to the floor, gently move the desk over beside the girl, then flop onto the desktop and start sleeping soundly.
Luo Yunzhi looked at her and found it amusing, but this was school.
She lightly coughed and still put on a proper appearance.
She took off her outer jacket.
And gave it to her.
Very thoughtfully, after covering Bai Ziyu with the jacket, the girl raised her eyes and looked around the classroom once.
No students were casting looks her way… that immediately made her feel a lot more at ease.
Only at the very beginning had there been a little discussion.
Like who the little loli was, and the biggest surprise was actually when Luo Yunzhi had asked for leave—turns out no one knew at all.
This “invisible person” persona of hers.
Couldn’t be called unstable.
This was fine too.
She rubbed her cheeks, and her expression returned to calm.
She took out her book and flipped to the page the teacher was explaining.
This was what she wanted—a peaceful school life. Those romantic, passionate things completely didn’t suit the girl at all.
As for the future… she would leave it to chance. Anyway, as long as the black cat was with her… and the little loli was here, even if there really were any difficulties.
It wouldn’t matter.
She had confidence.
When the sun on the horizon began to set in the west, even the weather was no longer so hot. A breeze blew past, lifting the leaves on the ground toward the sky.
Bai Ziyu woke up.
It wasn’t that she had been woken, but that she had slept her fill.
She slightly opened her eyes. The classroom was still very quiet.
She raised her head. There was the continuous sha sha sha sound of chalk rubbing against the blackboard.
The teacher was writing something on it.
The little loli yawned.
She was a bit bored.
The clock on the wall had already moved several centimeters.
School was about to end soon, yet this period was still math class.
Bai Ziyu stared at it for a while and felt dizzy, almost unable to understand anything.
She was only a step away from mistaking those formulas for English writing.
After all, after university… she had returned almost all her knowledge to the school. Even now, she could only do middle-school problems.
The little loli’s eyelashes trembled.
Although it was useless, the math teacher’s words still harassed her like demonic sounds, so she helplessly gave up.
“This bad habit really can’t be fixed.”
Bai Ziyu muttered.
Feeling sleepy during class was something almost every student experienced.
But it was almost time for school to end.
She didn’t want to keep sleeping at school anymore, even if this felt like dreaming of the past and the sleep had actually been pretty comfortable.
The little loli shifted her gaze a little.
She looked at the girl.
Luo Yunzhi was still writing furiously.
The wind outside the window made Bai Ziyu a bit more clear-headed.
She felt a little curious and couldn’t help leaning closer.
Then she saw that the girl was solving problems, but those seemed to already be university-level questions, things that completely weren’t taught or needed in high school.
Yet Luo Yunzhi’s pen was still writing, with almost no pause at all, as if these things were especially simple for the girl.
The little loli felt a bit helpless.
This smart?
She used her small hand to knock on her own head, but unfortunately that couldn’t increase her intelligence, so she simply stopped doing such self-deceiving things.
It was also at this moment that Luo Yunzhi seemed to finally finish writing that problem.
The girl smoothed out the draft paper, revealing a slightly satisfied smile.
But when she turned her head and saw the little loli, the smile at the corners of her mouth grew even denser.
Bai Ziyu shook her head.
She stretched.
Although the desk was rather hard, she had long grown used to this kind of thing in her student days. “Not tired.”
“On the contrary, Luozi, you’ve already learned university material?”
Luo Yunzhi froze for a moment, looked down at the draft paper, then suddenly understood and nodded. “Yeah. High school courses are really too simple.”
Bai Ziyu was a bit speechless. Was this even human speech?
She glanced at the formula problems again, and the result was very obvious—those characters looked like they were dancing.
The little loli felt a bit of a headache.
She didn’t dare look any longer.
“Luozi, how are your grades?”
“Which subject are you asking about?”
“All subjects… you should be able to rank near the top of the whole school, right?”
Bai Ziyu was curious and quietly stared at her.
“Eh? I’m first place.”
“In every subject?!”
“Every subject.”
