Seeing Qin Siting sit down, Shi Niange turned to look at him, using her eyes to trace his handsome features. She said, “Will the new semester teachers rearrange the seats? I don’t really want to change seats. Can we not change seats?”


  Qin Siting raised his brows slightly and turned to look at her.

  Shi Niange smiled at him. “Can I? Can I not change seats?”


  He did not answer, but his gaze that seemed to have seen through her made her feel strangely ashamed. However, she did not want to retreat. Her heart was burning hot, but she maintained her composure.

  Regarding the change of seats, it was true. She had heard that their class would change seats once every semester. However, Qin Siting had always been sitting here. Even if others changed seats, he would still be alone. Firstly, he did not like to sit with others. Secondly, no one dared to sit by his side and be frozen by an ice mountain all day long.

  Even if the teacher requested to change, it might not be possible.

  Early in the morning, her worry turned into joy, and then into worry.

  It wasn’t until Teacher Zhao, the form teacher, entered the class and asked about the situation during the winter break and if anyone had any thoughts about changing seats that more than half of the students said they could change seats, regardless of whether they were sitting together or with friends. The teachers thought that those who were too close could not be together. Otherwise, it was easy to chat with each other during class and affect their learning progress.

  Under the teacher’s arrangement, everyone was changing their seats. Almost everyone was walking around the other tables with their bags and books.

  Shi Niange sat there unmoving and did not make a sound. It was as though Qin Siting was not affected at all. Everyone else was moving around. He closed his eyes and sat quietly while taking a nap while everyone changed seats.

  Finally, when Teacher Zhao noticed that there was no response from them, he asked from the podium, “Shi Niange, Qin Siting, aren’t the two of you changing?”


  In fact, Teacher Zhao was very surprised that Shi Niange could actually sit by Qin Siting’s side for a full term. Now that there was a chance to change seats, with Qin Siting’s temper, she would definitely get up and find another seat.

  However, neither of them stood up.

  Shi Niange wanted to openly say that she didn’t want to change, but the teacher was looking at Qin Siting, so she couldn’t say anything. She only smiled at the teacher and brushed it off.

  “Nian Nian, aren’t you going to change?” The class monitor happened to walk over from the front. He turned back to look in Shi Niange’s direction and pointed at the seat beside him with his eyes, indicating that she could sit next to him.

  Shi Niange shook her head.

  The class monitor seemed a little surprised. After all, although she had sat with Qin Siting’s for a term her impression of her and Qin Siting was that they rarely interacted. The atmosphere between them was still very cold. With Shi Niange’s cheerful and lively character, she shouldn’t be very happy under such an ice-cold atmosphere. She actually didn’t plan on escaping from that ice mountain?

  “I can sit here. Last time, I ranked seventh in the mock examination. I’m not bad either. I can help you with your studies. I can even tutor you.” The class monitor placed his bag on the seat next to him, indicating that he did not want anyone else to sit there. His eyes were still looking in Shi Niange’s direction, clearly insisting that she sit there.

  The class monitor was a tall and handsome boy. He had a buzz cut and seemed to carry the heroic spirit of a student. Shi Niange had not interacted much with him. It seemed their only closed interaction was when they took Haoi Xiusei to the infirmary and then the hospital when he was feeling uncomfortable. Afterward, they had only interacted in terms of studies and did not contact each other in private.

  Seeing that the class monitor seemed to want her to go, Shi Niange didn’t want to go, but Qin Siting’s completely cold attitude made her feel embarrassed.

  Mr. Zhao was still watching, signaling to her with his eyes that he wanted her to sit with the class monitor.

  After all, Shi Niange’s grandfather had told him that he hoped that there would be someone to help Shi Niange when she was promoted to Year Three. Teacher Zhao had told her last semester to sit somewhere else, but this child was really stubborn. She had not changed for the whole semester, and now she was not planning to change?

  Seeing that Shi Niange was still sitting there firmly, Teacher Zhao looked at Qin Siting, who had been sitting there with his eyes closed, pretending to sleep. “Student Qin, do you plan on maintaining your original seating arrangement with Shi Niange, or do you want to change seats?”


  Everyone was busy moving their books and things. Only a small portion of people noticed the situation there, but they only took a glance before they went to chat happily with their new deskmate. The class sounded boisterous, and Shi Niange’s heart was also loud.

  The class monitor directly walked over to move Shi Niange’s book over. When Shi Niange saw that the teacher and class monitor were both planning on taking her away from Qin Siting, she couldn’t help but wonder if Qin Siting had privately requested it from the teacher. Was it because Qin Siting didn’t want to sit together anymore?

  Her heart was in a mess. Her hand subconsciously reached under the table and gently tugged on the sleeves of the person beside her habitually.

  Qin Siting opened his eyes and turned to look at her. Shi Niange also turned to look at him.

  “Nian Nian, give me your bag. I’ll bring it over for you.” The class monitor had just picked up a few of her books. He glanced at her bag on the seat and reached his hand out.

  Before his hand could touch her bag, Qin Siting’s gaze finally turned to him. He glanced coldly at the class monitor. “She won’t change.”


  Teacher Zhao was still thinking about how to help Shi Niange improve the learning atmosphere in the last semester of high school. The class monitor she arranged to go over was indeed pulling her along.

  She never expected Qin Siting to speak up.

  The class monitor was also startled. His hand was still suspended in midair and did not touch her bag.

  At this moment, Shi Niange quickly placed her bag on the other side where his hand could not touch it. She subconsciously moved closer to Qin Siting. Although her movements were very subtle, Teacher Zhao, who was standing on the podium, could see it clearly. His eyelids twitched, and at the same time, he saw that Qin Siting did not seem to be disgusted.

  She understood.

  Aiyo, these young children.

  The Qin family and the Shi family were not people who HE could afford to offend. However, it was rare for Qin Siting to accept someone by his side. Furthermore, he refused to change seats after a semester. Since Shi Niange was so willing, then forget it.

  “All right, Lin Xu, go back to your seat.” Teacher Zhao finally spoke.

  The class monitor responded and then looked thoughtfully at Qin Siting’s indifferent side profile. He then looked at Shi Niange who was focused on protecting her bag and left helplessly.
