Today was the first day of class, so Qiao Qingya sent Wang Qingquan, the chauffeur, to send her to school.

There weren't many people in the school yet, and the small tree that was just planted greeted her with a bit of a listless look. The birds were chirping happily, and Qiao Ruo Chu smiled at them as she walked to the side of the classroom and leaned on the railing, swinging her legs while waiting for someone to open the door.

After a while, the homeroom teacher, Meng Xiaoyao, arrived. When she saw Qiao Ruo Chu, she was a little shocked, "Classmate Qiao Ruo Chu, good morning."

"Good morning, Teacher Meng." Her voice was sweet and soft.

Qiao Ruo was just about to go to Xi Nuo's World Divine Swamp, but she didn't notice that someone had come.

Soon after, more and more students came one after another, and the girls' school's morning instantly became clear.

Just as Qiao Ruo sat down, Yao Sin Tong appeared out of nowhere and sat beside her. "Ruo Ruo, you came really early." "No," she said.

"It's my first day of class, I'm nervous."

Today, Yao was wearing a dark purple dress with lilies embroidered on the right shoulder. Instead of being low-key yesterday, she was generous and noble. People suddenly realized that she was also a famous beauty.

After the bell rang, Meng Xiaoyao left. The first section was the math class, where a female teacher wearing a blue qipao with a pale orange tasseled shawl walked in. Her high heels made the classroom floor ring, and she smiled amiably at the students when she got on the podium.

"My surname is Wang. I'll teach you guys arithmetic." she said simply.

Qiao Ruo Chu was slightly surprised.

She didn't have anything else to say, so she just gave a lecture. Honestly speaking, her lecture was really good. It was simple and profound, and it was able to arouse a girl's interest in arithmetic.

The students listened very attentively, and the class ended without them noticing. Qiao Ruojie had never felt that time passed so quickly.

Fast and happy.

This was Qiao Ruo Chu's feeling after the first day of class. When she walked out of the school in the afternoon, her steps were light.

The familiar Buick stopped at the opposite side of the road. The elegant and graceful man got off. The girls who had just started school were all envious of him when they saw his appearance. They didn't know who he was looking for.

Qiao Ruo Chu saw Gu Jun, and he saw her.

There were too many people, and she didn't want to talk to him, so she walked in the opposite direction.

"Ruo Ruo, I was looking for you."

He was not reserved at all.

The gazes of everyone in the surroundings turned to Qiao Ruozhu, causing her to feel very, very unnatural.

"Hello, Young Master. My name is Yao Sitong." Yao Sitong mustered up the courage to interrupt her awkwardness with Gu Jun.

"Hello, Miss Yao. Nice to meet you." Seeing a bright and beautiful girl take the initiative to talk to him, Gu Jun hurriedly turned around and politely responded.

Yao Sitong's face immediately turned red like the morning glow.

When the other girls saw that he had turned around to talk to another girl, and that there were no romantic scenes from a movie in their minds, they scattered.

"Brother, why are you here? "Did you come to pick me up after school?"

Gu Wanjia saw Gu Jun from afar and walked over with large strides. There were a few fashionable girls by her side.

"Wan-jia, you finished school?"

Gu Jun felt a little awkward.

Gu Wan Jia swept a glance at Yao Sitong, smiled, and then used her eyes to find Qiao Ruo Chu. Her pretty little mouth moved as she asked, "Big brother, you're not here to ask her out, are you?"

Behind her, several fashionable girls turned Qiao Ruo Chu over and over.

"Is she your future sister-in-law?" a girl in a tight qipao whispered.

Gu Wanjia rolled her eyes at her.

"Wanxia, are you coming home? Are you leaving?"

Gu Jun looked at Qiao Ruoxi affectionately, then turned around and spoke to his little sister as if he was his elder brother.

He knew that today's date was hopeless. There were too many people here to mess things up, and if he did not leave soon, it would embarrass Qiao Ruo Chu.

Gu Wan Jia arrogantly glanced at Qiao Ruoxi, said goodbye to the girl that was following her, and pulled on Gu Jun's sleeve as they walked away.

The Yao and Qiao families hadn't sent a car to pick up anyone today, so they could only walk back.

"Ruo Chu, so he's the first young master of the Gu family." Yao Sin Tong said in a daze as she walked.

"Yes, the eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Jun." Just now, Qiao Ruo Chu was feeling very uncomfortable under Gu Wanjia's gaze, and her tone was a little cold.

"He's a good gentleman." Yao Sitong did not try to conceal her adoration.

The girls' school was a little far from Yanzhou Garden. After walking for a while, Qiao Ruo didn't want to walk anymore, so she hailed a rickshaw, bid farewell to Yao Sian Tong, and went straight back.

As soon as she entered, Feng Yan came out to welcome her. "The talented girl is back?" She teased Joe with a mischievous smile.

Qiao Ruo gave her a wink for the first time. "Big Sister Yan Er, wait for me, Bu Fang, to come back on my big horse and throw a ball for my husband."

The women in the room laughed.

"My daughter, Young Noble Zhi just called to find you. He was waiting for you to throw the ball of silk, hurry up and give him a call." Aunt Yu was grinning from ear to ear, even Qiao Qingya felt a little younger.

"Big Sister Yan Er, when did you arrive?" Qiao Ruo first ignored Gu Jun's matter, washing her hands and chatting with Feng Yan.

"I thought you left school, so I came." Feng Yan said happily.

Qiao Ruo was sure that she had some good news to share with her, so after greeting her father, she pulled Feng Yan upstairs.

"Tell me, is the wedding date set?" she asked eagerly.

Feng Yan Er shyly nodded her head, "The 6th Emperor came back early in November to get married."

Qiao Ruo Chu counted with her fingers. There were still nearly two months left. She happily held Feng Yan Er's hand tightly. "Big Sister Yan Er, it's finally settled. This is great."

It was said that the two families were distant relatives and were linked by an old lady. At first, the old lady was against it, but when they met later on, seeing that the woman was gentle and demure, and also looking like a beauty, she stopped tormenting herself and even agreed on the blunder.

She took out a small bag made of fine silk from under the carved dressing table and placed it in Feng Yan Er's hands. "Big Sister Yan Er, give me your wedding present in advance."

Feng Yan Er pinched a pretty thick stack of money.

She opened it and counted. A full five hundred yuan. She asked Qiao Ruoxi in surprise, "That much?!"

It was a full half a year's worth of income for the Feng family.

Feng Yan looked suspiciously at Qiao Ruo Chu, not knowing where she had gotten so much money.

"Big Sister Yan Er, this is the money I saved over the years to buy clothes." She averted her eyes and lied a little.

Feng Yan Er's eyes became misty, "Ruo Chu, thank you." She squeezed Qiao Ruoxi's hand.

The two girls continued to discuss some matters regarding their boudoir. The lanterns were about to be lit during the new month, so Feng Yan dismissed the Qiao Family and returned.

"Every time I come, I don't eat at home. Would her family call us stingy? " During dinner, Auntie Yu talked about Feng Yan Er.
