Chapter 59

If possible, please put the book on the bookshelf. It will be convenient for you and also support me. Thank you!

After lunch, a nap is really necessary. Even after a one and a half hour nap, many students were still drowsy during the first class in the afternoon.

To be honest, the academic affairs office really didn't think it through. For the first class in the afternoon, why not schedule more interesting subjects like history or politics, or even music and physical education? Instead, they always schedule boring subjects like math and physics.

In the summer, the dormitory is actually quite comfortable. There are many large trees behind the building, and the dormitory is about six meters high with four large windows and a door, providing excellent ventilation, making it quite cool inside.

The only downside is that four students have to share one bed, which is quite crowded.

There are two or three people who don't take a nap at noon, such as Huang Jingping and Wang Jinju, and a couple of male students who continue to study during lunchtime.

One noon, after finishing lunch, everyone gradually returned to the dormitory for their nap. Feng Yiping, seeing no one in the classroom, decided to lie down on the three desks in his row, too lazy to go back to the crowded dormitory.

Surprisingly, it wasn't bad, except for being a bit hard. But he was young, or rather, he was still a kid, so he could adapt to sleeping on a hard surface.

So for the next few days, even when some classmates were still studying in the classroom during nap time, he continued to sleep there. After all, he didn't need to take off his clothes.

One noon, he fell asleep peacefully amidst the croaking of frogs. The cool mist from the pond outside was carried by the breeze, making him sleep soundly and comfortably until he was woken up by Wen Hong.

He sat up groggily and saw students walking from the dormitory to the classroom. He asked Wen Hong, "What time is it?"

"Ten minutes to one and a half."

Feng Yiping found it strange that the usually bold Wen Hong now dared not look at him. After speaking, she hurriedly walked to her seat at the back, her face flushed and her head turned away.

What's going on? Feng Yiping looked at Huang Jingping and Wang Jinju and found that they were also turning their heads away, almost facing him.

This is really strange, he thought. He propped himself up on the desk, preparing to get down, and inadvertently saw that he had pitched a tent below!

He instantly woke up, feeling the blood rush to his face. He quickly slipped off the desk, tightly clamping his legs together, and dared not lift his head.

No wonder they were acting strange! The more nervous he was, the more restless it became. He sat there awkwardly for about four or five minutes, feeling it was safe, and secretly looked down before fleeing the classroom to wash his face with cold water.

As he ran out of the classroom, he heard suppressed laughter from the girls inside, causing him to stumble.

Oh, how embarrassing!

From then on, he never dared to nap in the classroom again.

For the next few days, he felt a bit embarrassed when he saw Wen Hong, Huang Jingping, and the others, always feeling that there was something meaningful in their eyes.

Of course, in the face of heavy academic pressure, this incident was gradually forgotten by the people involved, or buried deep in their memories.

Not long after, Feng Yiping strangely noticed that the girls in the class had suddenly become much more united. Not only did they talk more across different circles, but they also often walked together after class.

To be honest, female students were never as united as male students. They always had clear boundaries between different circles, like rivers and wells not interfering with each other.

While male students might start a verbal or physical fight over a few words, they would reconcile after a few days.

Female students were different. Many of them were very easy-going and rarely had a falling out with anyone. However, if one day, a girl wore a new hair clip that didn't meet another girl's aesthetic, and the other girl laughed a bit, the first girl would not talk to her for the next month. Her attitude would infect the girls around her, and a few girls would then not talk to the one who laughed.

Such small incidents often created rifts between girls. So, while the girls in the class seemed to get along well on the surface, there were actually many hidden tensions beneath.

The girls' circles were generally formed like this: a pretty girl would have one or two less pretty girls around her; a high-achieving girl would have a few less high-achieving girls following her; classmates from elementary school who were still in the same class in junior high would naturally form a small circle; and some would form a small circle because they were desk partners, like Huang Jingping and Wang Jinju.

There were also some who chose to be alone, either voluntarily or involuntarily, such as Zhang Qiuling, Wen Hong, and Lin Hui.

Zhang Qiuling and Lin Hui did not live or eat with the other students, so they were not very close to the other girls in the class.

Zhang Qiuling was the daughter of the vice-principal, who had grown up on campus and was familiar with all the teachers. Moreover, because of her father's position, she received constant greetings as she walked from the principal's garden to the classroom.

She was very mindful not to act arrogantly, but as a princess descending to the common people, her sense of superiority would sometimes show. For example, when she talked about what the principal did or what gifts the head of the teaching office gave her, these were ordinary things in her daily life, but to ordinary students, they sounded like boasting.

As for Lin Hui, well, she didn't take studying seriously at all. If she could get a junior high school diploma by taking a leave of absence, she would definitely do so. So she just passed the days, waiting to get her diploma, and occasionally dated to enrich her emotional history. She really didn't have much in common with the other girls.

Therefore, they were often excluded from the circles. Additionally, Wen Hong was also a loner.

Wen Hong was quite pretty, had a lively personality, and sang well, making her popular among the boys. She didn't care much about studying but was very particular about her makeup, often taking out a small mirror to touch up her makeup after class. Her family was well-off, and she dressed well, even daringly. She would wear a skirt whenever possible, and she was one of the few who dared to wear dark undergarments under light-colored shirts or T-shirts in the current weather. Many boys dared not look at her directly but would stare at her after she passed by.

Such a girl had a bad reputation among the girls, so no circle was willing to accept her.

Of course, these three didn't care about these things and might even think that those who formed cliques were immature. They enjoyed their solitary lives.

But these days were different. Not only were the interactions between the circles more frequent, but even Lin Hui and Wen Hong were included.

Feng Yiping observed several times and found that after class, a few pieces of paper were being passed and exchanged among the girls.
