Background / History
Meeting Lin Fan and Wang Dong
Xiao Xiao introduces herself to Lin Fan and Wang Dong after they report Zhou Yi’s threat to expel freshmen. She thanks them for getting the hundred-lap punishment canceled and asks whether they fear retaliation. Her legs are scraped because she became too tired to continue running and tripped 14.
The following day, the pair recruit her to help with Du Weilun’s tree-planting assignment. She readily agrees, preferring the work to listening to Zhou Yi, though she first asks whether leaving class will get her into trouble. With the three students dividing the digging, soil-filling, and planting, they finish the remaining fifty-odd saplings 17.
Recovery and Class Transfer
Exhausted after planting, Xiao Xiao accepts Lin Fan’s offer of a massage and accompanies him and Wang Dong to his dormitory. Initially nervous about being touched by a boy, she relaxes as he massages her neck, shoulders, and lower back. His closeness makes her blush, and she privately wishes the treatment could continue 18.
Concerned about Zhou Yi’s anticipated punishment, Xiao Xiao agrees to request a class transfer with her friends. Lin Fan gives her two herbal medicine packets; she uses one in her bath that night and reports the next morning that her exhaustion and running injuries have disappeared 19 20.
Du Weilun approves the trio’s transfer. Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong leave the choice of class to Lin Fan, who selects Class Nine under Mu Jin. They find adjoining seats, with both girls wanting to sit beside him. Xiao Xiao also meets Ning Tian and Wu Feng when the two approach the transfer students after class 20 21.
Life in Class Nine
Xiao Xiao repeatedly jokes about Lin Fan and Wang Dong cultivating together. After Wang Dong moves into his dormitory, she notices their dark circles and teases them about “fooling around.” They chase her toward the classroom, then retaliate by tickling her at their shared desk until she apologizes 21 24.
She participates attentively in lessons and raises her hand to answer questions. Despite her diligence, she also agrees to help Wang Dong copy the homework on Lin Fan’s desk when he refuses Wang Dong’s request 30 40.
Foot Injury and Infirmary Misunderstanding
Lin Fan later finds Xiao Xiao still at her desk after the other students have left. She is subdued and reluctant to reveal that walking hurts. She eventually lets him examine her feet and explains that the pain began after running; he suspects a strain and offers a massage 41 42.
The massage does not immediately restore her ability to walk comfortably, so Lin Fan supports her and then carries her to the infirmary with her agreement. There, he applies medicinal oil. When his pressure hurts her, their argument turns into a scuffle, and he restrains her against a wall 43 44.
Xu Sanshi brings Jiang Nannan to the infirmary, presenting the scene as evidence that Lin Fan is behaving improperly. Xiao Xiao confirms that he was treating her feet and that she tried to hit him because he pressed too hard. The medicinal-oil scent supports their explanation, and Jiang Nannan apologizes for believing Xu Sanshi 44 45.
Lin Fan carries Xiao Xiao back to the dormitory. Embarrassed by onlookers mistaking them for a couple, she hides her face against him, but also bites his shoulder in retaliation for his teasing. By their return, she says the massage and infirmary treatment have made her feel much better 45 46.

Her mischievous side appears in jokes about her friends’ private cultivation and shared dormitory. She enjoys provoking embarrassed reactions, but apologizes when their tickling retaliation becomes overwhelming 21 24.
Around Lin Fan, attraction and shyness coexist with a fiery temper.
