58 Assertiveness (1/2)

Zhou Zhenya followed her brother as he walked to the bus stop. Soon enough, both of them arrived.

Zhou Lei sat down on the bench as he waited for a bus to come. Meanwhile, Zhou Zhenya hid behind the signpost as she spied on her brother.

After a while, the bus arrived, and Zhou Lei stood up and got on. Zhou Zhenya was thinking.

I can't get on the same bus as him, otherwise, he would spot me in a breath. Let's just wait for the next bus.

Fortunately, another bus arrived as soon as the last one left. She got on that one as she laughed silently.

Huhuhu, I feel somewhat luckier today.

.....

Zhou Lei felt that someone was following him. He shuddered at the thought, however, he quickly brushed it off afterward.

Soon enough, he arrived at his school. He took a deep breath, readying himself should he meet Wen Hui right away.

...Nope, I can't do this!

He went through the other, obscure entrance, quickly making paces towards his classroom. He wanted to take a nap on his desk as soon as possible.

Zhou Lei didn't think that Wen Hui should already be there. After all, he arrived unusually early today. Normally, Zhou Lei would wait for the last possible second to start readying for school.

Sure enough, when he opened the classroom, his teacher wasn't there yet. He let out a sigh of relief. Walking to his seat, he quickly sat down and put his head on the desk.

He didn't expect to fall into deep sleep, just enough so that it would give him enough energy for later... ahem, enough talking about that.

Seeing his arrival, almost all of his classmates stared at him as he lied his head down on his desk. All of them were still pretty much infatuated by his face.

One actually stood up and brought out a pillow from her backpack! Why did she have a pillow in her backpack, you ask?

Because she was the well-known student, the Sleeping Princess! Her name was Ma Xiaoli, and she always slept during classes. However, even though this was the case, her teachers never reprimanded her, even when she was seated at the front of the classroom. This was because she was also well-known by another name. She was the number one ranking student in the whole school. She was also very beautiful, the reason why the students call her the ”Sleeping Princess”.

Ma Xiaoli stood up, bringing a pillow with her. She walked to where Zhou Lei was resting and spoke, albeit timidly. ”Do... you want a pillow?”

Zhou Lei, however, didn't budge at all. Almost as if... he was asleep! Seeing that Zhou Lei didn't react in the slightest to her offer, Ma Xiaoli was filled with sadness.
