My Youth Began With Him

After Ms. Yao announced this, the expressions in the entire class were rather complicated.

A lot of people wanted to see Huo Mian make trouble for Qin Chu. They wanted to see her yelling or mocking him.

However, that wasn't Huo Mian's style.

Moreover, this person was Qin Chu…

When it was afternoon, Huo Mian and Zhu Lingling went for lunch.

After collecting their food, the two sat down in the corner, but Huo Mian didn't eat.

Qin Chu and Gao Ran walked over.

Initially, Huo Mian had someone sitting across from her.

But…

"Hey, classmate, get up and change seats."

Gao Ran said as he carried his tray.

The boy and girl opposite them quickly got up, unwilling to get into trouble.

Qin Chu and Gao Ran sat down.

"You still have the cheek to sit with us? Look at what you've done to Mian."

Zhu Lingling couldn't take it anymore and scolded Qin Chu.

Qin Chu didn't say anything, but Gao Ran was surprised.

"What's going on? Is there something that I don't know?"

"You're in class eight, stop meddling in our class' affairs…" Zhu Lingling retorted.

Gao Ran: "…"

Qin Chu was sitting across from Huo Mian. He glanced at her; she was eating quietly with her head lowered.

Huo Mian liked meat, so she often ate meat and vegetables.

In order to maintain her figure, Zhu Lingling rarely ate meat. Most of the time, she ate vegetables.

The girls didn't eat much, so their plates had just the right amount of food.

Gao Ran, on the other hand, had a plate full of food.

There was also a big bowl of soup. He would eat whatever was delicious.

Sweet and sour pork, green melon shrimp, steamed meat, and braised carp.

Gao Ran almost ate a full meal…

In comparison, Qin Chu's dishes were less heavy. He only took some vegetables and a small plate of stir-fried beef.

"Not happy?" Qin Chu asked.

"Why would I be?" Huo Mian didn't look up as she spoke.

"You're upset about getting second place for the first time, aren't you?" he continued.

"Qin Chu, aren't you stating the obvious? Do you want to fight?" Zhu Lingling was furious.

She almost overturned the table…

"Hey, hey, hey, let's talk nicely… We're still eating," Gao Ran quickly stopped her.

"Look at him, he's a classic example of someone who takes advantage of others but still refuses to admit it… I don't get it. Isn't it good to be ranked first together? Why do you have to pick a fight and ask the teacher to give Mian a second place? Qin Chu, I used to think that you were a man, but I didn't expect you to be someone who would do anything for higher rankings. Hmph… bad review for you… No, I think I'm changing from being your fan to an anti-fan."

Zhu Lingling rambled on, clearly unhappy with Qin Chu.

Qin Chu didn't explain; he only glanced at Huo Mian.

Then, he said in an extremely formal tone, "Didn't you say… that she likes people whose grades are better than hers?"

Huo Mian froze…

Zhu Lingling was also stunned.

Gao Ran tilted his head and looked at Qin Chu, wondering what he was up to.

"Chu… what do you mean?"

"From today onwards, Huo Mian is my girlfriend." Qin Chu smiled and lowered his head to eat.

"Don't talk nonsense," Huo Mian immediately denied.

"You said that if I surpass you, you'll be my girlfriend…"

"I never said that…"

"Don't deny it… Anyways, you will be in the future… But don't worry, I won't bully you anymore… I won't be better than you either, just this once."

Qin Chu finished happily and continued eating.

"Qin Chu, are you shameless? You make it sound like you'd lose to me on purpose.." Huo Mian rolled her eyes.
