Chapter 749: Returning to One’s Ancestral Roots (5)_1
The two of them playing off each other like that made it plain to see they were mocking Qi Weixin. The other students who had been looking at the rankings alongside them felt sick to their stomachs upon hearing their conversation. At this point, they couldn’t help but laugh out loud, their laughter getting louder and louder.
Qi Weixin’s face turned both green and white, she was practically about to explode with anger.
Her eyes glaring at Ruan Lei and Lu Zishu, she wished she could bore holes into them with her gaze.
Little Fatty imitated her shy behavior, twisting his plump body with a bashful look, "Oh my, don’t look at me like that, it makes me so scared." After saying that, amidst Qi Weixin’s frantic shrieks, he ran off with Lu Zishu, both of them bursting into laughter.
Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi were not the type to join in on such commotion. With the time it took to engage in it, Xiu Xi would rather spend reading a book, whereas Ruan Jiaojiao preferred to drink more milk. Given the hot weather, milk went bad easily, so she usually finished it before the third period.
When Ruan Lei and Lu Zishu returned with the news, Ruan Jiaojiao had just finished her milk and was about to casually wipe her mouth with the back of her hand when Xiu Xi stopped her. He steadied her little head and carefully wiped her mouth with a handkerchief.
Though Little Fatty had watched these intimate actions for several years, he still found them glaringly annoying each time.
But he dared not speak his anger and could only hold it in, as he took a seat in front of Ruan Jiaojiao’s desk.
"Hey, congratulations, you and my desk-mate are tied for first place. It looks like the two of you will be the ones going to the provincial capital for the math competition," Little Fatty said.
Upon hearing this, Xiu Xi paused, and Ruan Jiaojiao turned to look at Ruan Lei, "Then what place am I in?"
"As for you, you’re tied with your brother for third place!" Little Fatty revealed his big white teeth with a joyous expression.
