Chapter 153 – Seating Arrangement
The remaining students who were still in the area were startled by the sudden shout.
“Get to your classes, you dare skip classes in front of me? Don’t want to live, huh!”
Everyone: ???
Weren’t you just happy a moment ago? How did you change your attitude so suddenly?
“Still not moving?!”
“Tsk, let’s go, let’s go, the little chubby is angry~”
Chen Ling and Sui Sui followed the mentor and left the main hall. They entered a small building located behind the main hall, among a group of short, flat buildings.
Although those buildings appeared a bit worn on the outside, they were quite modern inside. Even the smaller-looking buildings had underground practice areas. Theoretical classes were conducted in classrooms, but if practical training required more space, the mentors would lead everyone to the underground areas.
The whole class had only 34 people, so it wasn’t crowded.
“Take any seat you like, sit wherever you want.” Ellie smiled at the seven new students in front of her. “Your senior brothers and sisters haven’t returned yet. This is your privilege. You can sit wherever you want, and they won’t compete with you for seats.”
“Hehe~” Sui Sui’s spirits lifted upon hearing this. Great! She could sit with Lord God.
However, she looked at the layout of the classroom and became conflicted. Because there were so few people, each desk was for a single student. The desks were arranged in rows, with an aisle in the middle, and each desk faced the front. Her dream of sitting next to Chen Ling was shattered. They wouldn’t be able to hold hands during class…
The others had already found their preferred seats.
“Mentor, where should we put the things on these seats?”
“Don’t worry about that for now. They’ll take their things when they come back. Just go ahead and sit down.”
Upon hearing this, everyone took their seats.
However, Sui Sui was still standing, unsure of where to sit.
“Haven’t you chosen a seat yet?” Chen Ling asked.
“Not yet. I’m thinking about how we should sit.”
Chen Ling chuckled, “You can sit however you like. Do you prefer front and back, or side by side?”
Everyone in the classroom: ???
It sounds like you’re saying something else, but I don’t have any evidence.
Ellie also chuckled softly after hearing this and looked at Sui Sui.
“Wu~ I don’t know either. I just…” Sui Sui blushed slightly and whispered, “I just want to be closer to you.”
Chen Ling smiled and walked to the last table near the window. After sitting down gently: “You can sit in front.”
“Hehe~ Okay~” Sui Sui happily ran over and took a seat at the desk in front of him.
Chen Ling glanced at Sui Sui’s adorable back, feeling a slight urge to give her a playful tap on the head.
Feeling a cool sensation on the back of her head, Sui Sui turned to look at Chen Ling. He smiled at her with narrowed eyes, making her instantly forget that strange feeling from earlier.
“Hehe~” Lord God and I are sitting in front and behind each other!
〚 Sui Sui is very happy~ Score +1 million~〛
However, after a while, Sui Sui turned around again and said, “Chen Ling~”
“What’s wrong?”
“I, I want to change seats…” She couldn’t steal glances at Chen Ling from the front seat. Every time she wanted to look at him, she had to turn her head. Constantly turning her head would make her embarrassed.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ling stood up. He didn’t mind changing seats.
“Hehe~ Thank you~ You’re so nice~”
Lord God is really nice~
〚 Sui Sui is happy~ Score +1 million~〛
“But you’re short, so if you sit in the back, you might get blocked by the person in front of you, right?” Chen Ling suddenly remarked.
Sui Sui: “…”
The expression on her face instantly froze!
Sobs…
〚 Sui Sui feels hurt, score -1 million~〛
Upon hearing this, Ellie chuckled and said, “It’s okay, it won’t block your view. No matter where you sit, the desks you’re assigned to are special.”
After hearing that, Sui Sui glanced at Chen Ling and pouted, her face saying: Did you hear that?
Hmph! I won’t be blocked!
Chen Ling smiled, patted her head gently, and said, “Go ahead.”
The sudden pat on the head made her forget Chen Ling’s joke from earlier. She happily ran to her new seat.
Chen Ling turned to look at Sui Sui, who was grinning foolishly, then turned back around, leaned against the wall, put on earbuds, lowered his head, and prepared to take a nap.
After a while, the noise outside the classroom gradually increased. It was the returning senior students.
Upon their return, seeing someone sitting in their assigned seats, they didn’t seem upset at all. Instead, they smiled and chatted, then voluntarily moved their things, showing great enthusiasm. This made some of the new students a bit embarrassed.
Just then, a somewhat cold-looking long-haired boy approached Chen Ling.
Chen Ling wasn’t actually asleep and sensed someone approaching, so he raised his head and glanced. The boy didn’t appear to be very old, around 1.7 meters tall. His long hair was tied up on top of his head with a wooden hairpin, forming a high bun. He looked slightly cute with that hairstyle.
Though his appearance seemed harmless, his face remained expressionless, giving off a somewhat icy vibe. As he walked, his eyes stared lifelessly at the ground in front of him, as if he were counting the bricks on the floor, missing a piece of his soul.
When he reached Chen Ling’s side, he lifted his head slightly and looked at Chen Ling with an expressionless face.
That expression made Sui Li’er feel like this person might not be willing to change seats. She suddenly became anxious, wondering if he was going to argue with Chen Ling…
Chen Ling also looked at him without expression, didn’t say anything, and showed no intention of getting up. At this moment, the person spoke softly:
“This… is my seat…”
His voice was very quiet, and while his tone was flat, it was quite gentle. Listening to it, he sounded like he hadn’t gone through puberty yet. His voice was very neutral, making it difficult to discern whether it was male or female from just the sound. It didn’t match his appearance, which gave off a cold impression.
It seemed like he wanted to discuss with Chen Ling.
Suddenly, Ellie in the front smiled and said, “Zuo Yuan, these are new students.”
“Oh~ new students… oh, got it!” He suddenly lifted his head, mouth slightly open, nodded lightly, and said softly: “Welcome~”
Then he lifted the books on the table and walked slowly to another seat nearby, holding the books.
This seat was previously given to him by a kind senior student. When it was his turn, he naturally had to give it up as well.
This is a tradition of Class A, symbolizing the seniors taking the lead and fostering harmony between the two waves of students, showing mutual courtesy.
Zuo Yuan looked around and then sat down next to Sui Li’er.
Sui Sui glanced over and thought: Indeed, everyone is very welcoming~ This person may seem aloof, but they’re quite talkative~
After sitting down, Zuo Yuan stared blankly ahead, lost in thought.
Seeing this, Chen Ling felt that there was something odd about this person and used the system to scan.
〚 Zuo Yuan, Gender: Female, Age: 18, Realm: High-level Intermediate Mage 〛
〚 Curse Star: Gemini 625〛
Chen Ling frowned upon seeing this information and turned to look at her. Gender: Female?
Is she dressing as a boy?
