Mrs. Lu was indeed as enthusiastic and hearty as Lu Li had said. Shen Xian felt that she could get along with her after seeing her.
The two women quickly progressed from the stage of politeness to the game of cards and chatted happily for a moment.
Shi Man had been paying attention to the commotion here. She was relieved when she did not see Shen Xian looking uncomfortable.
Yi Zheng walked to her side with a glass of wine and tilted his head to say something to her.
This scene happened to be seen by Tong Su.
She grabbed Chu Yue’s arm excitedly and shook it desperately. “Sister Chu, that man is President Yi, right? He’s even more handsome than on television!”
“Of course.” For some reason, Chu Yue felt a little smug when she heard others talk about Yi Zheng like this.
However, this smugness quickly disappeared under Yi Zheng and Shi Man’s intimate whispers.
Tong Su saw the smugness and jealousy in her eyes clearly. She had some more ways to deal with Shi Man.
It was a pity that Chu Yue had taken a fancy to such a handsome man. Otherwise, she would have fallen in love with him and snatched him over.
The next day, after Shi Man finished her meal early in the morning, she was sent to school by Yi Zheng and Shi Mu. Bai Xue and Su Tang were with her.
The two of them originally only needed to study in other humanities universities in the capital, but they insisted on accompanying Shi Man, especially Su Tang.
It was not that she was worried about Shi Man entering the new school alone. She just wanted to stay by Shi Man’s side. Otherwise, her heart would always be empty and uneasy.
As the three of them were personally introduced by Lu Jun and had not gone through the entrance examination, they were placed in the best class in the cohort, Class S.
Many of the students in the class had personally participated in the welcoming banquet last night, so they naturally knew the three of them. After the teacher briefly introduced the three of them as usual, he had to arrange seats for them.
The class monitor, Tong Su, raised her arm enthusiastically and suggested with a smile, “Teacher, let Manman sit beside me! I heard that Shi Man’s academic results are especially outstanding. I want to consult her more!”
Tong Su was the principal’s daughter, so the teacher naturally had no objections.
However, Tong Su already had a deskmate by her side…
The teachers of this military academy were also in the military. They were basically all subordinates of the army. Although they were respectfully addressed as teachers in school, only they knew that the identities of these students in school were more than a little higher than theirs.
This military academy was different from Cassel Academy.
Cassel could still accommodate students with good academic results but ordinary family backgrounds, but this military academy was a place specially designed to nurture talents for the army. The identities of every student were not simple.
Therefore, it was impossible for the form teacher to take the initiative to ask her to change seats. Anyway, with Tong Su’s personality, she would definitely do what she wanted.
As expected, when Tong Su saw that Shi Man’s face was expressionless, she automatically tacitly agreed that Shi Man had agreed to be her deskmate.
She turned to look at the boy who was still stunned beside her. He clearly had a pair of lovable peach blossom eyes, but the gaze that shot out of his eyes was not charming at all. Instead, it was extremely threatening.
The boy immediately reacted and hurriedly packed his things. He decisively moved to the empty seat in the last row and handed his seat over without saying anything.
Only then did Tong Su retract her gaze in satisfaction and continue to look at Shi Man with a smile. “Student Shi, please sit.”
Everyone in Class S knew Tong Su’s character. At this moment, they looked at Shi Man with some sympathy and schadenfreude.
Shi Man glanced at them indifferently and finally landed her gaze on Tong Su. She said slowly, “There’s no need. 1 like to sit in the last row.”
With that, she ignored Tong Su’s change in expression and actually held Su Tang’s hand. She openly walked to the two empty seats in the last row and sat down.
Bai Xue quickly reacted and hurriedly sat beside the boy.
This was the first time Tong Su had been disrespected in public. Her expression was so dark that even the form teacher could not help but sweat for Shi Man.
Fortunately, the bell rang at this moment, barely saving the students in the classroom who did not even dare to breathe.
Su Tang leaned to Shi Man’s ear under the cover of the ringtone and asked worriedly, “Manman, actually, you don’t have to be my deskmate. We offended our classmates as soon as we arrived. I’m worried…”
“What are you afraid of?” Shi Man interrupted her indifferently. She flipped open the newly issued textbook and said casually, “I like you to be my deskmate. I’m not used to it if it’s someone else.”
Su Tang was stunned for a moment. Then, she remembered that when she and Shi Man were in Cassel Academy, she actually felt as if a lifetime had passed. She pursed her lips and chuckled. She also read her textbook and stopped talking.
Forget it. She didn’t want to be separated from Shi Man anyway. As long as Man Man was around, she wouldn’t be afraid even if she became enemies with everyone in this school..
