The Little Brat’s Sweet And Sassy

Chapter 71 - Pick Your Seats



Chapter 71: Pick Your Seats

This time around, besides Sun Huihui, the others around her who heard He Xiaochen were stunned.

Lin Zhouyang almost fell off his chair in shock. He asked in disbelief, “You said Ning Li never takes down notes? Are you for real?”

He Xiaochen looked at him and said affirmatively, “Yeah, all she does is go through the study materials. What’s wrong? Didn’t you know that?”

Lin Zhouyang was silenced.

Who would have known that? More importantly, the fact that Ning Li never took notes sounded outrageous.

Which third-year student never took notes?

Lin Zhouyang himself had already used up several notebooks in the first semester.

He Xiaochen realized that other than Lin Zhouyang, the others also seemed unaware of Ning Li’s freakish feat.

“Oh, right, you guys have never asked her for notes, so you wouldn’t know that.”

He Xiaochen had found out about it accidentally and had reacted no better than Lin Zhouyang back then. As time went by, she got used to Ning Li’s superhuman capabilities.

No matter what the subject or notes were like, all Ning Li did was focus on the study materials, and when she mastered the formula or theory, she would have no use for notes.

However, when He Xiaochen revealed that to the class, the atmosphere became strangely quiet.

Meanwhile, the other students were subtly glancing at Ye Ci.

If what He Xiaochen said was true, Ye Ci never knew about this because she had never asked Ning Li for notes before.

Ye Ci kept quiet and misled everyone to think she had asked Ning Li for notes, but the latter had refused to lend her.

Ye Ci tightened her grip on Pei Song’s notes, looking down as the expression on her face froze.

Lin Zhouyang anxiously bumped the boy beside him with a soft kick.

“Hey, you were in the competitive Physics class with Ning Li, weren’t you? Notes! Gimme your notes!”

“Oh, yeah!” The boy nodded in realization and took his notebook out. “Ahem, my handwriting isn’t good, so bear with it!”

His handwriting might have been horrible, but the notes were complete and at least they were still readable.

Ye Ci looked at the boy and forced a smile. She said softly, “Thank you.”

In response, the boy awkwardly scratched his head. “It’s nothing!”

Lin Zhouyang started to regret not signing up for the competitive Physics class.

Ye Ci then gave Pei Song back his notes.

As for the lessons that she had missed, she got notes from her other classmates instead of asking for Pei Song or Ning Li’s help anymore.

The second period in the afternoon was the class meeting.

Since the parent-teacher meeting was held yesterday, Geng Haifan chaired the class meeting succinctly with a swift conclusion.

He took a glance at the clock on the wall. “There are still 20 minutes on the clock, so let’s change seats.”

Previously, the seats should have been swapped two days ago right after the results came out, but due to some scheduling conflict and unforeseen circumstances, it was delayed until today.

The class erupted into excitement when they heard about the seat change.

The seats were changed according to the placing of results. The higher the placement, the higher priority one would get to choose their desired seat.

The students walked out of the classroom and waited.

Geng Haifan waved at Ning Li.

“Ning Li, you first. Where do you want to sit?”

A lot of the students looked at her in jealousy. Before the results were announced, no one could see this coming since they did not expect her to get first.

When she first came to the class, all she got was a corner seat that no one cared about. Now, after the monthly test, she earned the right to pick her desired seat ahead of anyone.

Ning Li said without a second thought, “Mr. Geng, I think my previous seat is fine. I would like to sit back at my own place.”

When she said that, everyone, including Geng Haifan, looked at her strangely.

What did she just say?

This was a huge opportunity, and yet she still chose the secluded corner seat? What was so nice about that little nook?

“Are you sure?” Geng Haifan asked.

“Mm-hm-mmm.”

Geng Haifan nodded without asking Ning Li why. After spending quite some time with her, he learned that Ning Li was a person with her own thoughts.

If she had made her own choice, she must have had a strong reason behind it, so it was best to just let her have her way.

“Then, who do you want sitting next to you?”

Although Ning Li might have been a loner, there was someone who wanted to sit beside her. After all, her ice-cold bearing and insane results were not enough to deter the person.

He Xiaochen raised her hand.

“Teacher, me!”

The rare opportunity had finally arrived and she ought to seize it.

He Xiaochen had said she wanted to sit beside Ning Li before. When Ning Li announced she wanted her old seat back, she thought that He Xiaochen would give up. However, she did not expect He Xiaochen to be so persistent.

Nevertheless, Ning Li simply agreed.

Geng Haifan looked rather pleased with the arrangement. He was actually worried about Ning Li not having friends in the class, but since the lively and smart He Xiaochen wanted to be with her, he could put his worries at rest.

“Okay, you two can go in.”

Ning Li chose the other corner seat, which was nearer to the back door exit. It would be more convenient for her to leave from the back.

Since her new place was on the same row but on a different side, all she had to do was move her things a few seats away.

As for He Xiaochen, she ran back and forth as if she was moving her entire house. Other than the pile of papers and study materials, Ning Li also saw He Xiaochen grab a novel, a mug, and a few bags of chips.

Ning Li was speechless.

The next one to choose would be Pei Song. He, too, chose his old seat and Ren Qian tagged along as well.

Their original seats were at the back, and now, they were sitting beside Ning Li.

It was not because the two guys did not want to pay attention to the lecture in front, but the two of them were around 180 cm tall, so sitting at the back would be more suitable.

Now, there was only a little walkway in between Pei Song and Ning Li.

He Xiaochen’s eyes were teary when she saw Pei Song sit beside Ning Li. ‘Is this heaven? The most beautiful girl and the most handsome guy in school are sitting next to me! Aaah!”

Ren Qian glanced at the girl. “You’re drooling.”

He Xiaochen unconsciously propped her chin up and glared at the guy. She could not help but grind her teeth furiously when she realized that Ren Qian had been enjoying the company of the most handsome guy and the most beautiful girl for a whole month.

She swore she would make up for her loss in the upcoming weeks.

The top four students had grouped themselves up, which left the other students outside speechless.

“Great. The top four just teamed up.”

“They are all sitting next to each other in the last row. There are basically no more places around them that we can choose.”

“I give up. I guess I’ll pick the front. I don’t have the brains to learn, so sitting beside the geniuses won’t help me much either!”

“What are you talking about? Can you be more confident in yourself? Do you even have a dream? Even if you don’t have the brains, sitting beside the geniuses and basking in their presence is good enough for me! Don’t you people snatch my place beside them!”

The others started to pick their seats, and everyone unconsciously picked a seat close to the top four.

When it was Ye Ci’s turn, there were only two more seats around Pei Song and Ning Li, which were the two seats in front of Pei Song.

She did not pick those though. Instead, she chose the third row in the middle.

Cheng Xiangxiang stuck to her best friend as well.

Their original seats were only a row away from Pei Song and Ren Qian, but now, their new seats were two rows away.

More and more students chose the front seats.

Lin Zhouyang struggled for quite a long time and ultimately chose the seat in front of Pei Song.

The moment he sat down, Ren Qian ridiculed him, “Oh, look at this! This is rare! Why has thy cometh to us instead of taking the front?”

Lin Zhouyang nervously covered Ren Qian’s mouth with his hand.
