Ding Yu was speechless.

Cheng Ling, who was second from the bottom, was still harping on him being first from the bottom?

“Don’t be arrogant. I can surpass you with just a few simple lessons.”

Cheng Ling lifted her chin at him. “Let’s wait and see.”

Then, she continued eating her melon seeds.

For some reason, when he saw Cheng Ling eating the melon seeds, he suddenly felt like eating them, too. Although he normally wasn’t interested in it.

“Give me a handful.” Ding Yu reached out his hand.

Cheng Ling grabbed a handful from her pocket and placed it in Ding Yu’s hand. Cheng Ling’s fingertips touched Ding Yu’s palm, and in that instant, Ding Yu felt as if he had been electrocuted.

He quickly withdrew his hand, and two-three melon seeds fell to the ground.

He quickly pretended to lower his head to pick up the melon seeds, taking the opportunity to hide his reaction just now.

Cheng Ling didn’t pay much attention to it.

She had just turned to the page about one of the herbs which she had only seen in ancient books but not in real life.

The seeds of this herb had been lost for a long time.

It was Purple Iris.

Cheng Ling silently read the name of this herb.

This herb was very effective for many ailments. Cheng Ling had always wanted to successfully cultivate it.

This herb was also very important to detoxify Lu Qi’s body.

However, if she couldn’t find it, she could only replace it with herbs with similar effects. But the efficacy would be greatly reduced.

Ding Yu had already opened his Chinese book. He was reading classical Chinese while eating melon seeds.

These melon seeds were quite delicious.

Ding Yu thought as he was eating.

The other students in the class accidentally caught a glimpse of this inexplicable harmonious scene.

“What’s going on? Young Master Ding not only came so early today, but he’s also reading now?”

“Is it a trend now to eat melon seeds while reading? Why are the two famous people in our class doing this?”

The two people who were being called the famous people by the class didn’t know what the classmates in the class thought of them at this moment.

Cheng Ling was thinking about how to cultivate this kind of medicinal herb, while Ding Yu was frowning while staring at the classical Chinese characters in the Chinese books.

What exactly were the words in the book? Why couldn’t he even read them?

Ding Yu didn’t go against her today, so Cheng Ling’s morning passed by smoothly.
