Planning for Snow

January 19, 2015, evening self-study.

Chen Siyu had brought snacks—Spicy Konjac Snacks—and shared them with her best friends in the Four Great Connected Seats.

She even took a photo and messaged privately: "Saint Sister, do you want some? (snickering)"

She knew Yang Sheng could not handle spicy food, so she deliberately teased her.

Yang Sheng understood what Chen Siyu meant. She might fear spicy food, but she was not afraid of this idiot. Refusing to be outdone, she replied, "I do want some, but we're in class right now. How are you going to get it over here?"

Chen Siyu: "Just tell me if you want it or not."

Yang Sheng glanced back. Across more than half the classroom, she spotted Chen Siyu's smiling face.

Yang Sheng: "I'm not going to go out of my way to catch it."

Chen Siyu: "You won't have to."

After sending the message, she leaned close to Tongtong and showed her the chat history.

Xue Yuantong calmly said, "Leave it to me."

She used a small rubber band to tie up the konjac snack, stretched it taut, then brought out the Wooden Catapult.

She loaded the konjac snack and finished positioning it.

Then she pulled down the launch hook. The mechanism sprang, and the small packet of konjac snack instantly traced an arc through the air, crossing more than half the classroom before landing precisely on Yang Sheng's desk.

Yang Sheng was utterly stunned.

Students in the back rows, such as Wang Longlong, noticed the scene and felt deeply envious. With that catapult, they could throw whatever they wanted.

Chen Siyu sent another message: "Eat it, go on and eat it."

Yang Sheng was caught in a bind. Stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat, she said, "Fine, I'll definitely finish it before class ends!"
