Kapitel 365: The Next Exam

After the girls and I were all ready, we set off for school. We weren't exactly late, but we were nowhere near early either.

On the way, Feng Mian and I kept our distance, refraining from participating in the other girls' conversations. This was normal for me, but Feng Mian was different. The other girls noticed her unusual quietness, but chose not to bring it up.

Once we got into class, we settled down in our respective seats. We arrived just in time before Ms. Cai began her lesson.

"Good morning, class…"

"Good morning, Ms. Cai…"

"So today, I have a few announcements…" she said, glancing down at a sheet of paper in her hands and rubbing her eyes. "Firstly… congratulations on placing 4th in the first special exam of the year."

She said this with her usual monotone voice, making it sound extremely sarcastic. She probably intended this, in all honesty. 4th was last, after all.
