Chapter 87

Among these people, Yao Jina runs the fastest.

Xiao Fei did not sit next to her as she had hoped, which made her quite disappointed. How could he do this? I am a beauty adored by all; how many boys would eagerly please me with just a hint from me. He actually ignored me and didn’t take my hints to heart. How can I bear this?

Xiao Fei's coldness only fueled her determination.

After Xiao Fei sat at the back, she took a few books, got up from her seat, and stood in the aisle. As soon as Li Tangqiu left, she ran to the back of the classroom to claim the empty seat next to Xiao Fei.

Clearly, there were others with the same idea.

This included Yan Zhang and You Gui, who were sitting a bit further back but reacted a bit later.

In the end, it was still Yao Jina who first reached Xiao Fei's desk. She slammed her books on the table, securing her position and blocking Yan Zhang, You Gui, and others behind her.

Yan Zhang slapped his forehead in frustration. He couldn’t even beat a girl, how embarrassing! After all, he was a sports star who ran like the wind on the basketball court.

You Gui and the other two were also a bit dejected but didn't give up, waiting to see how things would develop.

Yao Jina's reputation in school was terrible.

She had just had a relationship with Wang Lika.

They didn’t believe that Xiao Fei would be content to be a nobody, a laughingstock. So what if she was a beauty? Who could really handle someone like Yao Jina?

Xiao Fei looked at the few people who had run to his side and then at Yao Jina standing next to him, asking in confusion, "Yao Jina, what are you doing?"

He was pretending not to understand. Of course, he knew she wanted to sit next to him.

In fact, the seats around and near the top students were always very popular. Students with ambition but poor grades were willing to sit closer to the top students, making it easier to ask questions, build relationships, and get some academic guidance, which greatly benefited their studies.

But Xiao Fei believed that Yao Jina wasn’t sitting next to him for any of these reasons.

This girl was just subconsciously choosing the boy who looked the most excellent to be her friend to satisfy her vanity.

She craved attention and wanted to stand out.

Well, or perhaps she had the subtle thought of grabbing a potential stock in hand.

In short, she definitely wasn’t approaching him because of his looks and charm, nor because of genuine affection. If she sat next to him, she would probably drive him crazy.

Xiao Fei had already made up his mind: no matter what, he couldn’t let her sit next to him.

"Xiao Fei, I want to sit next to you and have you tutor me more. Do you think that’s okay?" Yao Jina said in a sweet, coquettish voice.

Her eyes were fixed on Xiao Fei.

Her face was adorned with a seductive smile.

Xiao Fei couldn’t understand how an inexperienced girl could smile so seductively.

Beside her, Yan Zhang, You Gui, and many others were watching with wide eyes, eager to see how Xiao Fei would handle the situation. Would he agree or refuse?

Most people thought that Xiao Fei was more likely to agree.

Having a beautiful girl sit next to you, chatting and laughing, was something many men dreamed of.

Even if this woman was terrible.

Refusing would be very difficult.

"Bitch!"

Wang Fei turned his head and muttered under his breath. A few days ago, Yao Jina had been flirting with him and even invited him to the playground for heart-to-heart talks twice.

Today, she was fawning over Xiao Fei, trying to sit next to him. It was truly disgusting.

Wang Fei had also heard some of Yao Jina’s sordid stories. He had only been playing along with her, using her to amuse himself.

Even so, seeing Yao Jina fawn over Xiao Fei made him uncomfortable.

In fact, he found Xiao Fei a bit annoying.

He believed he was the true top student in Wenfu No. 1 High School, and Xiao Fei had just gotten lucky in the college entrance exam.

He had also heard from Li Peizhen and Zhu Xiling that Xiao Fei was a one-sided student with very poor math scores.

And he, Wang Fei, excelled in math.

In Wang Fei’s view, the other subjects in the liberal arts were just about memorization. As long as you put in the effort, getting high scores in Chinese, English, history, and politics was easy.

In summary, Wang Fei felt his strength was much greater than Xiao Fei’s, and he had more potential. He deserved the most resources from the head teacher.

But now, Li Tangqiu clearly favored Xiao Fei more.

This was the main reason for his dissatisfaction with Xiao Fei.

"Indeed, she’s a bitch. If Yao Jina sits next to Xiao Fei, I think Xiao Fei will be done for this year. That woman is a curse; whoever gets close to her will suffer." Li Peizhen, who sat next to Wang Fei, said with a hint of schadenfreude.

Li Peizhen, Zhu Xiling, and Wang Fei shared a dormitory. After some time, they had become quite close, often studying and playing together.

"Yao Jina, I’m really sorry, but I’m not really used to sitting next to a girl. I think it’s best if you don’t sit here, okay?" Xiao Fei said with a calm smile.

"Huh?"

The onlookers were quite surprised.

He refused? And refused without any hesitation, leaving no room for negotiation.

What? He actually said he didn’t want her to sit there? He actually refused her? Yao Jina bit her lip, feeling a bit wronged and ashamed.

No one had ever refused her like this before.

And to be refused in front of so many people, it was so embarrassing.

She had the impulse to cover her face and run away.

But she didn’t leave. She adjusted her mood and still smiled seductively, saying, "I’ll be very well-behaved. I’ll sit quietly next to you and won’t disturb you at all. Can I, Xiao Fei?"

She looked at Xiao Fei pitifully.

Her eyes were moist, as if she might start crying at any moment, perfectly embodying the phrase "pitiful and helpless."

I’ve lowered myself to the dust, can you bear to refuse me again?

"Yao Jina, I’m really, really sorry. You’re so beautiful, and I’m afraid I’ll get distracted if you sit next to me. This year’s retake is very important to me, and I can’t afford any mistakes. So, do you understand what I mean? It’s best if you don’t sit next to me." Xiao Fei wasn’t swayed by her appearance and remained firm.

Life is a cultivation in the mortal world. Xiao Fei admitted he wasn’t fully cultivated and still harbored significant resentment towards this girl.

However, he tried to be tactful, hoping to avoid offending her too much.

They were classmates, after all, and there was no need to make an enemy.

"Alright, then I won’t disturb you." Yao Jina bit her lip, tears rolling down her face, and she turned to leave with her books.
