All the clothes for the girls were a combination of pink and white, and their outer coat even had a fluffy tail in the back.
Lu Qingyan blinked twice—was that a fluffy bunny tail sewn onto the back of the jacket?
She tugged the fabric skeptically. Yep. Definitely a tail.
She turned to inspect the boys' uniforms: a bold combination of red and black, sleek and dramatic, like they were cosplaying as a team of mildly rebellious backup dancers from a pop idol competition.
Together, the colors were strangely… coordinated. Too coordinated.
As soon as Lu Qingyan collected the uniform coat and short-sleeves that matched her measurements, the sports field's broadcast rang.
This was the announcement for the entire school to go participate in the opening ceremony of the sports competition.
Lu Qingyan changed her clothes and followed the rest of the students downstairs.
Special Class and Class 1 were close to each other, so the two groups encountered each other right after they left their respective classrooms.
However, the relationship between the two classes was delicate because there weren't a lot of differences between their academic performances, not to mention that Class 1 had won first place in the last sports competition.
They juxtaposed each other once again as they stood side-by-side.
Lu Qingyan heard from Peng Jianda that the two head teachers of the classes were also usually full of gunpowder when they interacted.
"This year, we must wash away the disgrace of last year," he whispered with an intensity that made it sound like they were storming Normandy. "We'll win. I can feel it in my soul."
Meanwhile, the hallway buzzed with other conversations.
As they walked, the two groups became disorderly. Lu Qingyan heard the conversations of the nearby boys.
"Did you see, did you see? That's the class flower of Class 1."
"She's really quite beautiful, what's her name?"
"It seems to be Lin Ruoyu."
Lu Qingyan, who was originally eating melons in peace, paused slightly when she heard the name.
Lin Ruoyu? Why does that sound so familiar?
Wait!
That name wasn't just familiar. It was plot relevant.
Her brain spun.
Wait.
Isn't that the love interest of Wang Jingyuan in the original novel?
She almost forgot that there was still a love interest!!
Lu Qingyan turned her gaze over.
As one of the important character's love interest in the novel, Lin Ruoyu's journey was one of inspiration.
If she remembered correctly, Student Lin Ruoyu will become a member of Special Class when the classes are rearranged next semester.
And as she studied in Special Class, she will fall in love with Wang Jingyuan and began to pursue him.
Although it was unknown whether her efforts bore fruit in the end. But Student Lin Ruoyu was someone that believed that as long as one worked hard towards their goal, they would achieve success — so her seemingly cold seatmate was probably defeated by this cheerful and hardworking girl.
But there was one point that made this female love interest unlucky.
When she was in the middle of pursuing Wang Jingyuan, she successfully caught the attention of her idiot brother, Lu Mingxuan.
It probably started out as a "Heh, this woman is interesting" situation, before miraculously developing further.
And then boom, romantic war declared.
Not out of love, but out of sheer competition. Because clearly, the only thing stronger than sibling rivalry was romantic rivalry between a smug fool and a stone-faced genius.
Lu Mingxuan, this nutcase, started to pester and harass the love interest in an attempt to pursue her.
It was unknown how sincere he was as it was highly likely that Lu Mingxuan simply wanted to compete with Wang Jingyuan.
But because this rival in love likes to target Wang Jingyuan more than people typically would in this type of situation, he, Lu Mingxuan, also caused him, Wang Jingyuan, a lot of trouble.
After she thought to this point, she didn't know why, but she suddenly felt that it was still Wang Jingyuan that was the most unlucky.
Her seatmate was really too miserable.
Lin Ruoyu also noticed that there were a lot of gazes that drifted towards her.
She ignored their glances as she nervously searched for a person within the group of Special Class students.
Her line of sight swept around in a circle, but she didn't find that person.
Her expression revealed a sense of loss.
Lin Ruoyu had a secret.
She was reborn.
In her last life, she was able to transfer to Special Class through her own efforts. Afterwards, she met Wang Jingyuan.
And she, who had always been very popular and well-received due to her appearance and personality, ran into a wall when it came to Wang Jingyuan.
It was as if all of her characteristics of being good at understanding others and being soft became unnecessary and awkward.
A single one of his indifferent gazes made Lin Ruoyu feel like she had lost her halo, even the pride she felt in her heart was scattered along with it.
Wang Jingyuan.
The cold boy. The untouchable iceberg. Her great wall. The only one who had never looked at her the way everyone else did.
She began to silently pursue him, believing that although this person appeared indifferent on the surface, as long as she worked hard, she would be able to move him without a doubt.
But what broke her heart was that even though she chased after him for a long time, there were barely any results.
Later, she happened to find out about Wang Jingyuan's situation.
She learned that his father had died early and his family was suffering from misfortune, and when he turned 12, her mother died, leaving him and his younger brother.
