“Enough about me, let’s talk about you.” If Ruan Mengmeng had to explain the reasoning behind her transfer to the school, she would have to talk about her mom.

“Aren’t you usually friendly with everyone? Why were those guys giving you a hard time?”

“Tsk, I’d rather not talk about it.” Mu Jingxing unhappily pouted his lips. “It’s all because of Gu Xuan. Ruan Jiaojiao and he make the perfect, most shameless pair.

“Oh, you’re in the same class as me? Alright, let’s go then.” Mu Jingxing’s head was somewhere else when Ruan Mengmeng told him that she wanted to go to class.

He looked over at Ruan Mengmeng but dropped his head. He took another glance at her and lowered his head again, still deep in his thoughts.
