Soon, students from both classes came to the Academic Affairs Office on the fourth floor. The Dean of Studies first asked the students from Science Class 1 to move all their textbooks away.

Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan each picked up a dozen textbooks and stood outside the office waiting.

The other students walked into the classroom one after another, holding their textbooks.

Mo Yuanting came out of the office and saw the two of them still standing outside the corridor. She couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Why haven't you two left yet?"

Gu Siyuan replied with a grin, "We're waiting for someone. We'll be leaving soon."

After hearing this, Mo Yuanting said, "Don't waste too long, both of you." Then she walked towards the stairwell.

After a while, Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao came out of the office carrying two dozen textbooks. Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan saw them and hurried forward to take them.

"Youning, let me help you get it." Ruan Fuxi said.

"Yes, Sister Ning, Xiaoxiao, we can just come and get it." Gu Siyuan also said.

Lu Youning felt that she didn't take much, and the teacher was watching, so she quietly refused, "The teacher is watching, it would be bad if the teacher misunderstood me."

Ruan Fuxi took the textbook from her hand and walked towards the stairwell.

Seeing this, Lu Yixiao also handed the dozen textbooks in her hand to Gu Siyuan.

Two boys were walking in front. Although they were holding two dozen textbooks in their hands, they looked quite relaxed.

Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao followed behind. Lu Yixiao leaned close to Lu Youning's ear and whispered, "I think Ruan Fuxi looked so handsome when he took the things just now. He looked so manly and cool."

"Yeah, it's pretty cool." Lu Youning nodded slightly and responded.

The two girls walked slowly, and when they reached the second floor, Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan were already waiting in the stairwells of the two classes.

Ruan Fuxi glanced at Lu Youning's fingers, which were red from being tied with the rope, and said casually, "Take the textbook back first, then come over and get these."

Lu Youning nodded obediently and said, "Okay. I'll be right out."

Lu Youning quickly returned to the classroom, placed the textbook on the podium, and then returned. She took a few steps forward, took the textbook from Ruan Fuxi, and said with a smile, "Thank you, kind, handsome boy."

Ruan Fuxi chuckled at her funny tone and repeated playfully, "An enthusiastic handsome guy~? Hmm?"

The tone was low and magnetic. When Lu Youning heard it, her heart trembled inexplicably, and her fair cheeks quietly turned a light pink. She didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Ruan Fuxi looked at the well-behaved and shy girl in front of him, and suddenly felt his hands itching. He wanted to reach out and pinch her blushing face.

Fortunately, his rationality returned in time. He turned his face away guiltily, waved his hand and said, "I'm leaving."

Lu Yixiao watched the entire interaction between the two and couldn't help but sigh, "Master is really amazing. He even made our Ningning shy."

Lu Youning calmed down and said stubbornly: "I was just accidentally 'bewitched' by beauty."

Lu Yixiao nodded in understanding: "Yes, the master is really charming. Not only is he good at studying, he is also so handsome."

As he spoke, he gently nudged Lu Youning with his elbow and jokingly said, "Sister, I think you can try to take him down.

Lu Youning didn't answer. "Let's go. The books are not too heavy to hold."

After returning to the classroom, the two put their textbooks away and then sat back in their seats.

After a while, Dian Ge came back with other students holding textbooks. He began to arrange the textbooks and said, "First group of students, come up and take your textbooks in order."

As soon as he finished speaking, the first student stepped forward to receive the textbook, and then the textbooks were quickly distributed one after another.

The homeroom teacher instructed, "Everyone, prepare your textbooks first and don't make any loud noises. A teacher will be patrolling the classroom soon. If you're caught, each of you will have to write a 5,000-word self-criticism."

It was the first evening study session of the new semester, and the students were still not focused. Not long after Brother Dian left, sparse voices were heard in the classroom.

After all, for students who have just returned from vacation, it is really difficult to suddenly return to normal class time from a comfortable and relaxing vacation life.

Lu Yixiao originally wanted to chat with Lu Youning, but saw that she was preparing the textbook so seriously.

Liu Yufei and Lin Muwan at the table in front of her were also preparing for class. She felt embarrassed to disturb them, so she also calmed down and started reading.

When the bell rang, many students breathed a sigh of relief and felt like they had gotten through another class.

During the ten-minute break, Lu Yixiao said, "Ningning, let's go to the supermarket and buy a cold drink. The classroom is so stuffy and I want some ice water."

"Okay, I'm thirsty too."

The two walked hand in hand towards the small supermarket. A gentle breeze blew through the campus at night, bringing a hint of coolness that contrasted sharply with the stuffy heat in the classroom.

On the way, they met many classmates who were also out to relax. Everyone had a relaxed and happy smile on their face, as if they were talking about something happy.

When we arrived at the small supermarket, it was crowded and bustling.

They were selecting cold drinks in front of the freezer. Lu Yixiao picked up a bottle of iced Coke and said, "Ningning, do you want some Coke?"

Lu Youning shook his head and chose a bottle of mineral water. "I'd rather drink this. It's more thirst-quenching."

Lu Yixiao hesitated for a moment, then chose iced Coke and said, "I kind of want to drink Coke."

Lu Youning took the mineral water and was about to close the freezer when a large, bony hand rested against the door.

She turned around and saw the familiar figure of Ruan Fuxi, and standing next to him was Gu Siyuan.

Gu Siyuan: "What a coincidence, Sister Ning, Xiaoxiao, you guys are here to buy water too."

Lu Youning leaned to the side and replied, "The classroom is too stuffy, so it's a good time to get some fresh air. We've made our choice, you guys take your pick."

Ruan Fuxi reached out and took a bottle of Wahaha mineral water. Seeing this, Gu Siyuan asked in confusion: "Don't you usually drink Coke? Why did you take mineral water today?" As he said that, he reached out and took a bottle of Coke.

Ruan Fuxi curled his lips slightly, looked at the mineral water in Lu Youning's hand, and said, "It's nice to change the taste occasionally."

After hearing this, Gu Siyuan shrugged his shoulders, looking as if he understood everything.

The four of them walked to the cashier together. While waiting in line to pay, Lu Yixiao quietly leaned over to Lu Youning's ear and said, "Ningning, the master is drinking the same drink as you."

Lu Youning gently nudged Lu Yixiao, signaling her to stop talking nonsense. "Look around and see how many people are buying the same thing as me," she said speechlessly.

Lu Yixiao looked around, scratched his head awkwardly, and said, "Uh... this does seem a bit much. But, the master must have chosen the mineral water because of you."

Lu Youning rolled her eyes helplessly: "Stop guessing, just pay the bill and go back to the classroom."

At this time, Ruan Fuxi and Gu Siyuan had already paid and were waiting for them. Lu Yixiao quickly pulled Lu Youning to pay, and then the four of them walked out of the supermarket together.

Several people opened some water and started drinking. As the cold water entered their throats, most of the restlessness in their bodies disappeared instantly.

"It's such a treat to have a bottle of ice cola in the hot summer." Gu Siyuan sighed comfortably.

Lu Yixiao agreed: "Drinking ice cola is indeed comfortable, and it makes me feel better."

"By the way, what were you doing during the summer vacation? Why don't I see you in the group?" Gu Siyuan asked the three of them.

Lu Youning thought for a moment and replied, "I just signed up for a math cram school, reviewed my high school textbooks, went to Hengdian to work as a pen substitute, and finally wrote a novel."

Ruan Fuxi raised an eyebrow when he heard this and said, "You had a very fulfilling summer vacation."

Lu Yixiao stopped, her eyes wide, her face filled with disbelief. "Sister, you're incredible! It's not enough to just enroll in cram school and preview your textbooks, but you even went to Hengdian to work as a pen substitute. And you even wrote a novel! So you're a writer now."

Gu Siyuan also showed admiration and nodded repeatedly, "Sister Ning, you really impressed us. My summer vacation was just spent at home playing games and occasionally hanging out with friends. Compared to you, my life is so meaningless."

Lu Yixiao: "Ningning, has your novel been published?"

Lu Youning nodded and said, "It's posted, and it's almost finished."
