Chapter 23: First Place Is Mine

Qin Jiatong’s expression turned ugly in an instant, and a trace of sadness gradually appeared on her face.

However, she didn’t say anything else. She just sat down and tidied up her school bag with her head lowered.

Lu Jinwan, who was sitting at the front table, was very angry. She slapped her book so hard that it made a ‘pa pa’ sound,

it was all Qin Jiatong’s fault that they were so far away from one another!

There were no empty seats at the back.

She couldn’t follow her even if she wanted to.

Forget it, forget it.

Compared to the fact that she was a few seats away from Qin Yi Yi, she was more curious about Qin Jiatong’s transfer!

The next morning, after class, Qin Jiatong’s transfer caused a huge uproar.

The break between classes was of twenty minutes.

Lu Jinwan lay on the table beside Qin Yiyi with a look of despair on her face.

“Yiyi, you and I have been separated.”

Qin Yiyi glanced at her and used her gaze to measure the distance between her and Lu Jinwan’s seats.

Less than two meters?

She lowered her gaze and continued to look at her phone. She didn’t know what she was doing, but her fingers slid quickly.

Lu Jinwan didn’t mind. She sat next to her and muttered. In the end, she directly tried to snatch Qin Yiyi’s phone.

“Yiyi, did you hear what I said?”

Qin Yiyi clearly didn’t look, but she avoided her hand as if she had eyes on her head.

However, she also turned off the phone screen and looked up. Her tone was indifferent as she spoke. “What did you say just now? I didn’t hear it clearly. Say it again.”

Lu Jinwan glared at her, then slammed the table angrily.

“I was talking to you about Qin Jiatong. She was doing fine in Class 2. Why did she suddenly transfer to Class 3?”

Qin Yiyi felt that this question was a little difficult. She needed to think about it carefully.

Lu Jinwan patted her head. “Let me tell you. This time, you can’t be foolish enough to be coaxed by her. I’ve already told you that she’s as detestable as your mother. Yet, you don’t believe me. She said that she’s good and that she wholeheartedly treats you as her elder sister. Bah, bullsh*t.”

“So I was that stupid in the past?”

These words made Lu Jinwan gasp, and then she instantly retorted, “Nonsense, who said that? My Yiyi is the best. She’s the smartest in the world.”

Qin Yiyi laughed when she heard these words. She even forgot about the trouble that she would have to face every day because of Qin Jiatong’s sudden transfer! Since she felt that this was a little happy girl in front of her, Qin Yiyi secretly decided in her heart that she would definitely urge this little girl to study hard and do the questions later so that she could enter the same school as her!

What a good girl!

Just looking at her made her happy!

Yes, it was a happy decision just like that.

Lu Jinwan still did not know that her future days were about to be in deep trouble.

She looked worried. “Why don’t we think of a way to get Qin Jiatong to transfer back?”

“Do you think that this class is yours or that the teacher is someone you know?”

Turning back just like that?

She stood up and patted Lu Jinwan’s shoulder. “Don’t think about it. It’s just a matter of time.”

Besides, Qin Jiatong was the one who should be worried!

At the classroom door, Qin Yiyi and Qin Jiatong walked in and out one by one. Qin Yiyi looked at Qin Jiatong, who was walking into the classroom, with a straight face.

“You’re blocking my way.”

“Ah, Sister, I’m sorry, but the class is going to begin soon. Where are you going?”

Qin Jiatong’s big watery eyes rolled twice with a worried expression.

“Sister, the next class is math class. If you don’t have anything important to deal with, you should not go out, right?”

These words directly determined Qin Yiyi’s decision: skipping class!

Lu Jinwan, who was following behind, jumped up when she heard these words. “What do you mean? Didn’t you hear her when she told you to move aside? Also, what do you mean by ‘don’t go out if you don’t have anything important to do’? We’re going to the washroom. Next time when you want to go, I’ll let you directly hold it in your pants, okay?”

Qin Jiatong’s face flushed red.

Angered by Lu Jinwan’s words, she bit her lower lip tightly. Her somewhat aggrieved eyes swept over Qin Yiyi. Finally, when Qin Yiyi’s patience ran out, Qin Jiatong caught sight of the figure not far behind from the corner of her eyes. Her eyes flashed as she gently made way. “Sister, if you go out, remember to hurry back. Class is about to start. You can’t delay.”

Qin Yiyi raised her eyebrows and glanced at her. Her voice was crisp and cold, like pearls colliding with jade.

“You’re in charge of the washroom or what?”

Behind her, Lu Jinwan burst out laughing. “Aiyo, this person behaves as though she is in charge of the world. There’s actually someone who wants to control whether someone else goes to the washroom or not.”

“I didn’t mean that. Sister, you’ve misunderstood me. I just wanted to remind you that class is about to start soon…”

Qin Yiyi saw the mathematics teacher approaching and shook her head as she walked out.

Lu Jinwan, who was behind her, paused for a moment before following Qin Yiyi out. “Yiyi, wait for me.”

When she was returning to the classroom, Lu Jinwan’s heart was still in her throat.

“Yiyi, will the mathematics teacher make the two of us stand there as punishment?”

“Why did you come out with me if you were afraid?”

Lu Jinwan’s eyes widened. “I’m your companion. How boring would it be for you to be punished alone?”

Qin Yiyi, “…”

She reached out and stroked her short hair. She smiled so warmly that her eyes were soft.

“Don’t worry, I won’t be punished.”

This class was an exam, so it shouldn’t have started yet.

Sure enough, just as the two of them returned to their seats and sat down, the math exam papers were handed to them.

The teacher stood on the podium and looked at Qin Yiyi and Lu Jinwan for a while before finally knocking on the blackboard.

“All done, begin to answer the questions…”

An hour and a half later.

The exam ended.

When the teacher who had collected the papers left, someone couldn’t help but approach Qin Jiatong.

“Goddess, the questions this time were a little difficult. How much can you score this time?”

“Do you even need to ask? She’ll definitely be the first in our class.”

Qin Jiatong had an obedient look on her face. “The results haven’t been declared yet. Don’t say that. There are many people who are much better than me in studies.”

On the other side, Lu Jinwan muttered, “Look at her. It’s as if the first place really belongs to her.”

“It makes me angry just by looking at her.”

Qin Yiyi had already packed her school bag. When she heard this, she finally raised her head and looked at Qin Jiatong. “There’s really no need to be angry.”

After pausing for a moment, she continued in a calm voice that carried no hint of uneasiness. “The first place will definitely not be hers.”

“Ah, how do you know?” Lu Jinwan was very curious. She almost leaned toward Qin Yiyi. “Then, who will be in the first place?”

Qin Jiatong was really good at studying!

“The first place will be mine.”

She blinked, her face calm and serious. As long as she was there, Qin Jiatong would not get the first rank!
