Gathering all the whispers, Yue Qingqing touched her nose, inexplicably feeling like laughing.
"It’s your first day of school, came to see how you’re doing," Jiang Jingze passed her a paper bag, the aroma of the meat floss cupcakes made Yue Qingqing sniff unconsciously.
"Smells good." Yue Qingqing took it, feeling a bit embarrassed, "I already had breakfast."
"You’re growing, you should eat more, consider it a snack."
Jiang Jingze’s smile was very tender, causing many junior high school girls, who already idolized high school students, to be unable to take their eyes off him.
Yue Qingqing wanted to refuse, but couldn’t resist the temptation and eventually accepted it.
Yue Qingqing cursed inwardly, why couldn’t she control her growling stomach!
Jiang Jingze casually ruffled her hair, "Why be so polite with me, I owe you my life, so I’ll take care of your breakfasts from now on."
Yue Qingqing hurriedly declined, "Please don’t, my parents would scold me if they found out." That really wouldn’t do at all.
Jiang Jingze expressed regret, "Is that so? I’ve recently learned how to make rice noodle rolls and shrimp dumplings, you know, with a crystal skin that’s thin and chewy, translucent appearance, with shrimp inside that’s crisp and tender, it only needs a bit of simple vinegar sauce."
As Jiang Jingze described, Yue Qingqing’s mouth started watering like crazy.
She ad only had breakfast before coming to school, but she felt hungry again.
Jiang Jingze asked again, and Yue Qingqing nodded frantically.
She didn’t dare to speak, afraid that if she opened her mouth, she’d drool all over the floor.
"There’s also egg-stuffed pancake, milk-flavored fried dough sticks, seafood congee, hot and sour soup, you can think ahead about what you want to eat, call me in the evening."
In the face of food, Yue Qingqing’s self-control was as flimsy as paper, easily punctured.
It took her a long time to finally swallow back her saliva, "Thank you, Brother Jiang."
Jiang Jingze left with content, while Yue Qingqing returned to her seat wishing she could pound the desk.
It had not been easy to repay her previous debts with the Safety Pendant, but how did her debt seem to be getting bigger and bigger?
It wasn’t until just before the morning reading bell was about to ring that Qu Ruorui sauntered in late.
After a summer of playing, Qu Ruorui’s complexion had darkened a bit more than before, turning into a healthy wheat color.
But her smile had grown even wider.
After coming in and scanning the room, she directly sat down next to Yue Qingqing.
"Qingqing, I missed you to death." Qu Ruorui threw herself into Yue Qingqing’s arms, leaving her surprised for a moment.
She quickly hugged her back.
Qiuqiu’s personality had become much more cheerful than before.
Just as they were about to catch up, the morning reading bell rang, and a young woman with glasses walked in.
"Hello, students, I’ll be your class teacher for the next three years." The woman pushed up her glasses, "My surname is Duan."
Teacher Duan wrote her name on the blackboard—Duan Wenzhen.
Although young, Ms. Duan was clearly not an inexperienced class teacher.
Roll call, attendance, distributing textbooks.
She arranged everything in an orderly manner.
Once all the students received their textbooks, Duan Wenzhen asked everyone to come up one by one and introduce themselves in three sentences.
The classmates were essentially divided into two groups.
One came from First Primary School, and the other naturally came from Experimental Primary School.
There were also a few from other schools, but they were so few they were almost negligible.
Just like the situation when they first entered First Primary, students from the two schools kept to themselves as if there was an undercurrent of competition between them.
Seeing the familiar scene, both Qu Ruorui and Yue Qingqing couldn’t help but smile at each other.
From primary school to middle school, it felt like they had begun a new stage indeed.
