“Hey.”

Ding Yu called out, but Cheng Ling didn’t turn around. Her ponytail was swaying left and right along with her footsteps.

Ding Yu had no choice but to run faster to Cheng Ling’s side.

“You don’t even greet your classmates. You’re indeed unfriendly.”

These two persons were the subject that the students loved to discuss. Now that the two of them were walking side by side, they naturally attracted attention from everyone.

But Cheng Ling didn’t care.

“You blocked me on the first day after school, was that friendly?”

Ding Yu also felt a little embarrassed about what happened that day. After returning home, Ding Shun scolded him for a long time, saying that it was too embarrassing for him, as a boy, to find trouble with a girl.

Even though in the end, Cheng Ling had beaten him down.

“The incident that day was my fault. You wouldn’t know how embarrassed I was.”

Cheng Ling smiled and did not continue with the topic.

Besides gossiping, the students of Yuya First High School were also good at their studies. When Cheng Ling and Ding Yu had just entered the school, many students had already started studying and memorizing seriously besides the railings.

After all, they were in their third year of high school, so everyone was very focused on their studies.

“Why are you here so early today? It is the first time. Is it because I woke you up from my scolding last time, and now you want to study hard?”

Ding Yu snorted disdainfully but he didn’t deny it.

These two days, he locked himself in his room to play games, and suddenly he thought of what Cheng Ling had said to him.

Indeed, was he going to play games for the rest of his life? There would be a day when he finished playing all the games. But when that time came, what would he do with his life?

Last night, he was lying in bed and thought about it for a long time. In the end, he decided to give it his all in the last year of his senior year. At least, he didn’t want to feel regret.

This morning, when he woke up early to have breakfast, he actually frightened Old Master Ding. He thought that Ding Yu had a fever.

After knowing that he was going to school, Old Master Ding was even more surprised. He wanted the family doctor to come over, and Ding Yu talked to him for a long time before Old Master Ding believed that Ding Yu was the prodigal son who was now repentant for his behaviors in the past.

The two of them walked into the teaching building. When the other students saw them walking side by side, they poked their heads out to gossip.

It was past eight in the morning, and the sun was rising. Ding Yu was very tall, and he completely blocked the sunlight shining on Cheng Ling.

Cheng Ling turned her head to look at him.

Ding Yu noticed Cheng Ling’s gaze on him, and he was a little nervous.

Why was she looking at me?

Did she discover that I was very handsome?

The left side of my face looked better. Should I walk to her right side?

“Your hair is so yellowish,” Cheng Ling said.

This made Ding Yu very upset.

Cheng Ling looked at Ding Yu, who suddenly walked quickly and shook her head.

The man’s mood was like the sky in June, it changed as it wished.

The two girls whom Ding Yu had just dissed were from Class 7. They had just gone upstairs when they saw Ding Yu leave Cheng Ling behind with an unfriendly look on his face.

“See, I told you that Young Master Ding was not defending Cheng Ling just now. The moment we mentioned Cheng Xiao just now, Young Master Ding got angry. He must be on Cheng Xiao’s side, and he didn’t want Cheng Xiao to be gossiped about.”

“Is that so? But I hardly see Young Master Ding and Cheng Xiao have any interactions between them.”

“What do you know? In the entire school, which girl would get the response from greeting Ding Yu? Isn’t it Cheng Xiao? Young Master Ding is too protective. We merely mentioned Cheng Xiao’s name and he immediately protected Cheng Xiao. He’s really the ideal boyfriend.”

Ding Yu did not know that he had been misunderstood to such an extent.

At this moment, the boys from Class 10 were surrounding Ding Yu and chattering.

“Young Master Ding, why are you here so early today? Did you take the wrong medicine?”

Ding Yu pushed them away as he walked to his seat, and Cheng Ling followed closely behind him.

Therefore, everyone quickly walked away from the two of them. Otherwise, if the two happened to quarrel, they might be implicated.

As usual, Cheng Ling put away her empty school bag in the drawer and took out the book on herbs that she had not finished reading.

As there was no class, the morning reading session had not started, and there was no teacher here to supervise, Cheng Ling took out the handful of melon seeds that she picked this morning from her school uniform pocket and began to read while eating them.

Ding Yu looked at the brand new books in his desk drawer and wanted to study hard. However, he did not know where to start.

He glanced to the side and found Cheng Ling eating melon seeds while reading a casual book.

“You told me to study hard but you’re eating melon seeds yourself. Shouldn’t you lead by example?”

The way Cheng Ling ate melon seeds was clean and neat, not a single sense of unrefined.

She put the shells of the melon seeds into the garbage bag she brought.

“Even if I’m eating melon seeds here, I could still be second from the bottom..”
