During math study hall, Chen Siyu did not study. Instead, she held a classic in her hands and read.
She was reading To Live.
Jiang Ning asked her, "Have you finished One Hundred Years of Solitude?"
"Huh? I-I-I haven't finished it," Chen Siyu hurriedly answered.
The person who had read One Hundred Years of Solitude last time had actually been her older sister. She herself had never read it.
From Jiang Ning's words, she secretly rejoiced. So Jiang Ning really could not tell the sisters apart.
He could not even tell which one of them had been reading.
Didn't that mean there was much more room for maneuvering in the future? Chen Siyu's thoughts began to race.
Bai Yuxia scrolled through her phone for a while, then turned to look at Chen Siyu. "You're reading about living, while I'm studying something about death."
"What are you studying?" Chen Siyu asked.
"A movie, Final Destination. The movie itself isn't much, but it did make me realize that so many little details in life can kill people. Humans really are too fragile."
"For example, you could die from choking on a sip of water," Bai Yuxia said quietly.
Xue Yuantong silently set down her cup of water.
Bai Yuxia, Chen Siyu, and Jiang Ning all noticed her movement.
Chen Siyu smiled. "You're such a scaredy-cat."
Bai Yuxia could not help but smile.
Xue Yuantong felt underestimated. She grabbed her cup. "Hmph, what's so scary about that? I'm not afraid."
She patted Jiang Ning. "If the Grim Reaper has the guts to come, I'll have Jiang Ning beat it up!"
School let out at noon.
Cui Yu hurriedly finished eating and returned to the classroom, where he sat down with his phone in hand, waiting for Chen Qian to take the bait.
