“Yes, yes!” Luo Chen nodded aggressively before he realized she had said something strange.
“Qiao Qing, we are in the same class.”

Qiao Qing, “…”
Qiao Qing glanced at him, pursed her lips, and didn’t speak anymore.
Luo Chen looked at her, a little scared, and asked her speechlessly, “Qiao Qing, there’s no way you don’t know who I am right?”
Why would anyone from the same class tell someone from that same class her class number?
Qiao Qing, “…”
Luo Chen walked to face Qiao Qing and said seriously, “Qiao Qing, what is my name?”
1
Qiao Qing squinted, “I’m sorry, I have face blindness.”

Luo Chen, “…”
So after she spoke with him for so long, she didn’t even recognize him!
Luo Chen rubbed his face. For the first time, he felt his confidence took a hit due to his appearance.
“If that’s the case, then let me introduce myself again.”
Luo Chen wasn’t angry. He slapped his chest and gently coughed.
“Qiao Qing, my name is Luo Chen, I am 18 years old and I am a representative of handsome boys in this school.”
Qiao Qing nodded without much emotion, “I am 17.”

Luo Chen, “…”

He suddenly felt a little burnt.
He felt like he will likely only be able to enjoy these past 18 years. He was going to die from being talked to like this.
“Then, let me call you Qingqing.”Luo Chen felt like as long as he doesn’t show it, he won’t feel awkward.
“It’s okay that you have face blindness. I will just show my face often to you. Oh right!”
Luo Chen then pointed to his eyes, “Everyone says my eyes look special. This should be a differentiating factor! Just look at my eyes in the future to identify me!”
Qiao Qing took a look into his light grey eyes. As if she remembered some kind of living organism, her lips twitched up and down.
Luo Chen’s heart uncontrollably hopped around, “Qingqing, you smiled again.”
Qiao Qing’s face immediately turned black. She flung aside the furry head that had inched closer to her and she walked into class.

As everyone watched Luo Chen and Qiao Qing enter the classroom together, their gossipy nature burned and flared.
1
Who in class 22 didn’t know that Luo Chen was affectionate towards Qiao Nian?
Other than Qiao Nian, he has been too lazy to talk to anyone else.
Yet he walked in with Qiao Qing. What did this mean?
Luo Chen didn’t mind anyone’s gaze here. He returned to his desk and cleaned it out.
He carried his now fully packed backpack and walked to the boy who sat in the row before Qiao Qing. He then placed down his backpack and said, “Switch seats with me.”
The students in the class exchanged glances with one another, not sure what Luo Chen was trying to pull here.
The student who was asked to switch seats was the studious type. He looked back to Luo Chen’s seat and shook his head.
“I don’t want to sit there.”
Luo Chen took out a stack of cash. He didn’t even count it before he waved it before the man, “Do you want to switch or not?”
Everyone around them inhaled sharply at once.
The person who was getting slapped by cash now held a blank expression on his face. He didn’t talk for a long time.

Luo Chen thought it was too little cash for him so he searched his backpack for valuables.
iPad, Gameboy, gold pen… he threw everything before him.
“Do you want to switch or what.”
Lin Xiyan’s deer-like eyes were wide open. She could only describe this man as, dumb but rich.
The boy finally snapped back to reality. Scared, he pushed back that pile of worthy products, “I don’t need all this. I will switch with you.”
Then, he cleaned out his stuff and left the seat.

As he wished, Luo Chen now sat in front of Qiao Qing. He turned around and posed in what he thought was his most attractive pose.
“How about that Qingqing? From now on, you can see me anytime you lift your head. It won’t take you long to remember me now.”
Qiao Qing lifted her head and looked at him, “What’s wrong with you?”

Luo Chen, “…”
