Su Meimei took Ling Tiantian to a small private gathering. The private gathering was hosted by Su Meimei's good friend, Yang Ruojia, and it was held at a private swimming pool under her ownership. Ling Tiantian's family was just moderately well - off. Facing such a large swimming pool, her mouth watered instantly.
Yang Ruojia was two years older than Su Meimei and already a college student. The two families had been in close contact, so they had a good relationship. "Meimei, long time no see!" Yang Ruojia hugged Su Meimei. "And this is?"
"She's my classmate. Her name is Ling Tiantian." Su Meimei replied.
"Oh, hello."
Ling Tiantian nodded to her shyly. "Hello."
Yang Ruojia led them around the pool. "Help yourselves to the food here, but first... you have to change into swimsuits."
"Sure!"
Ling Tiantian looked a bit embarrassed. "Do I... have to change too?" She looked at the handsome men and beautiful women in and around the pool. They all seemed to have great figures, and she had no confidence in her own body!
Su Meimei, of course, knew what she was thinking. "What does it matter?" She smiled casually. "You can just enjoy the food, and then the handsome guys around will naturally come to chat you up."
"Okay... fine..."
The Next Day
When Ling Tiantian went to school, she was beaming. It was obvious that she was in a great mood. How could she not be? She had had so much fun last night!
Su Meimei saw her and greeted her charmingly. "Hey, chubby girl, good morning."
"Good morning, Meimei." Ling Tiantian greeted her with a big smile. It felt like her relationship with Meimei had gotten closer since last night. And most importantly, she seemed to have successfully entered Su Meimei's circle. If she could make good use of it in the future, it would bring her a lot of benefits!
"Has the dog made up with its master?" A classmate whispered nearby.
"Such a loyal dog!"
Su Meimei, with her sharp ears, heard it and a faint smile appeared on her lips. Dog? Hehe, it was really apt! Yang Ruojia had called her yesterday. "Meimei, why has your taste gotten so bad?"
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"That fat girl. Why are you friends with someone like her?" Yang Ruojia was puzzled. Su Meimei was usually very concerned about her reputation. How could she be friends with someone as... timid as Ling Tiantian?
Su Meimei giggled coquettishly. "Don't you think that making an ordinary friend once in a while can better set off my beauty?"
Yang Ruojia also laughed. "That's true."
Su Meimei sat back in her seat. Exactly! Didn't Ling Tiantian's timidity just make her look more and more beautiful?
...
Ling Tiantian came to borrow Su Rou's notes again. But Xiao Yun and Yu Fei were already fed up with Ling Tiantian.
"Su Rou, can I borrow your notes?" Ling Tiantian walked into Class One casually.
Su Rou took out a beautiful notebook from her desk, flipped through a few pages, and said to Ling Tiantian, "These are the parts I added later."
Ling Tiantian took a look. "Okay."
"Um, there will be a monthly exam this week. Please return it to me after you finish copying. I still need to review." Su Rou said gently. The rule in No. 1 Middle School was that there would be a monthly exam every month.
Ling Tiantian nodded. "Sure, I know. I won't delay your review. Don't worry!"
Su Rou gave her a sweet smile. "Okay."
After Ling Tiantian left, Xiao Yun curled her lips disdainfully. "She just comes to borrow your notes so casually? She really thinks too highly of herself!"
Yu Fei also said disdainfully, "Exactly. She's so natural, without any manners at all... And have you noticed? Ling Tiantian just called Su Rou by her name directly!"
Xiao Yun frowned and nodded. "I heard it too." Calling Su Rou by her name so openly and confidently. This was not the attitude of someone asking for a favor!
Su Rou pursed her lips. "It's just borrowing some notes. Don't talk like that."
"But don't you think Ling Tiantian has started to change?" It wasn't an illusion. Both Xiao Yun and Yu Fei felt this way. Since Ling Tiantian started hanging out with Su Meimei, even the way she looked at them had changed. It felt a bit strange!
"Not really. She just comes to borrow notes and never talks to me otherwise." Su Rou shrugged. "Maybe she wants to study hard!"
"Hehe, if only that were true."
On the other side, Ling Tiantian took Su Rou's notebook and went back to her own class. "Meimei, I'll give it to you after I finish copying."
Su Meimei smiled beautifully. "Okay."
Ling Tiantian spent an afternoon copying Su Rou's notes and then handed it to Su Meimei. "Meimei, please copy it quickly. I have to return it to Su Rou tomorrow morning. There will be a monthly exam this week." After all, Ling Tiantian had borrowed someone else's things. If she didn't return it in time and delayed Su Rou's review, it would be her fault!
Su Meimei gave her a coquettish look. "Of course I know!" Hehe, she had been waiting for this moment!
Ling Tiantian naturally trusted Su Meimei whole - heartedly. "Okay."
"Do you want to go out and have fun with me again tonight?" Su Meimei tempted her.
Ling Tiantian got a bit excited. "Really?"
"Sure..."
"Great! I'd love to go!"
