Shi Jing’s Enrollment
“We’ll know after the investigation,” Yi Zheng said as he patted the information on his chest and turned to leave.
Tang Zhe was left scratching his ears and cheeks.
He had to investigate again. Ah…
At this moment, Shi Man knew nothing about her identity being discovered by Yi Zheng.
She had enjoyed her school days without Shi Jing. When Shi Jing entered school, the peace of her school life would be broken.
Shi Man’s studious performance successfully made the teachers in Class F look at her in a different light.
Of course, the most important reason was that with Shi Man, the students of Class F did not dare to be rash. Although they were not listening seriously, at least no one dared to make a scene in class.
After teaching those classmates a lesson in Nightless City that day, Fang Han’s deskmate transferred schools and never came to Cassel Academy again. The boys and the girl who harassed Su Tang also stopped their bullying and did not continue to find trouble with Su Tang.
As for Fang Han, she seemed to have received some news from her deskmate or Song Zhi. She didn’t dare to cause trouble again. Shi Man had a few peaceful days.
Shi Jing had been assigned to Class D because she had performed well in the written test that Cassel had specially arranged for her.
When she heard this result, Shi Man couldn’t help but laugh. She thought that Shi Jing would be very strong, but she didn’t expect her to go to Class D.
Shi Jing was not too satisfied with this outcome. She looked for the teacher and principal several times, hoping that they would assign her to a better class on account of Shi Zhong.
But the principal of Cassel would not hear of it. It was already overboard for the Shi family to interfere, and now she actually wanted him to change her class.
Seeing that the discussion was fruitless, Shi Jing had no choice but to accept it. On second thought, Shi Man was still in Class F and was still inferior to her.
Shi Man didn’t care, but she felt a little disgusted looking at Shi Jing’s face.
“Xiao Man, I’ll go to the library to study before going home after school. Do you want to come with me?” Su Tang said to Shi Man.
Ever since she saved Su Tang again in Nightless City, the latter seemed to have automatically thought that she had become friends with Shi Man and started to take the initiative to invite Shi Man to do some things together.
Although Shi Man rejected her most of the time, she was never angry.
Shi Man did not know where she got the illusion that she was very good to her. However, sometimes, when she saw that Su Tang was bullied and in trouble, she would walk around the school with her a number of times. After a while, everyone in the school knew that Su Tang and Shi Man were “very close”, so they naturally did not dare to provoke Su Tang. Shi Man was happy to be at ease. After all, most of the time, it would affect her if others came to find trouble with Su Tang.
“No, I’m going home for dinner.” As expected, Shi Man rejected Su Tang again.
However, she was not lying this time. There was a small banquet at the Shi family today to congratulate Shi Jing and Shi Man on their successful enrollment. Shi Zhong and Shen Xian especially reminded them to go home on time.
“Okay, then I’ll go myself.” Su Tang was already used to Shi Man’s rejection. She continued, “These are today’s homework and notes. I’ve arranged them for you.”
Shi Man didn’t say much. She picked up the bag that Su Tang had packed for her and left.
“Xiao Man!” Shi Ke waved in Shi Man’s direction at the school gate.
It was her eldest brother’s turn to pick her up today. Ever since they had discussed putting in place a rotation, she had not gone to school alone. It was not that she had not thought of rejecting them, but her brothers had decided that she was amenable to coaxing and did not want to attract too much attention.
Therefore, under their continuous attacks, Shi Man finally compromised.
When she returned home, the food had already been prepared. Shi Zhong and Shi He were still busy with work and had not returned. Shi Jing would be a little late because she took the school bus.
Shi Man was in a daze on the balcony, looking at the scenery outside the window.
Then something strange caught her attention.
