When she returned to her seat, her tablemate moved her desk further away from Qiao Lan, as if Qiao Lan had the plague on her.

She deliberately ignored Qiao Lan and stayed away from her, wanting to see Qiao Lan embarrassed, but Qiao Lan was calmly reading and writing, and her face looked quite happy.

Today, her friends said that the way Qiao Lan used to chase after Song Yao Chen Yaoyang and the others, she could see how much she wanted to fit in, so she couldn't really stand their neglect.

And it won't be long before we're sitting at the same table as Qiao Lan.

The class teacher has said that when the mid-term exams are over, they will be seated according to the ranking of the exams.

Qiao Lan was in the bottom ten of her class in the last monthly exam, there was no way they could sit together again, and not only that, she could rely on her grades and could sit very close to Chen Yaoyang!

Chen Yaoyang came first in the whole year in the last monthly exam and should still be first in the midterm if nothing else.

And in the last monthly exam, she was fifth in her class.

Recently she has been studying very hard, almost every day at 1am, in order to get closer to Chen Yaoyang and to improve her ranking in the mid-term exams, preferably to get second place. However, Song Yao, who came second in the midterm, is better than her in English, so she is not too sure she can beat Song Yao, but it doesn't matter if she doesn't come second, she can come third or fourth, because the third and fourth places are behind the first and second places.

The distance between the front and back tables is close enough for her.

She also knows that Song Yao likes Chen Yaoyang, but they are not in a relationship after all, right? If she can get closer to Chen Yaoyang by her own ability, people will think that she is serious about her studies, even if they really see that she likes Chen Yaoyang, she is sitting there by her grades, others have nothing to say, right?

People hate Qiao Lan not because Qiao Lan likes Chen Yaoyang, but because Qiao Lan doesn't deserve to like Chen Yaoyang.

He glanced at Qiao Lan and returned his attention to his textbook, not bothering to talk to Qiao Lan anymore.

Those who were jealous of Qiao Lan's ability to talk to Song Yao Chen Yaoyang, those who didn't like her, and those who hated her in the first place, now the most interesting thing to do after class is to sit together and talk badly about Qiao Lan, and bet on how many more days Qiao Lan can pretend.

No one, not even Chen Yaoyang, believed that Qiao Lan could hold out.

But he wished that Qiao Lan could have stayed so stiff. These days, Song Yao was finally free from such a discordant presence around him, and no one was deliberately trying to get close to him, so Chen Yaoyang felt that the air around him was good.

Everyone thinks that Qiao Lan must be regretting it and must be embarrassed, but as for Qiao Lan herself, regret is out of the question, embarrassment is.

But not because of people's rejection of her, but because the radio gymnastics in the Annexe is not the same set as she used to learn.

She wouldn't, which would be awkward.

She was told by the class teacher that she was not serious because she did not know how to do it, and several people next to her laughed at her after the class teacher finished.

But even so, there was nothing she could do about it; no one in the class should want to talk to her at this stage, let alone teach her how to do exercises, not to mention how odd it sounded to be learning to do exercises for good reason.

When he returned to the classroom after the exercise, Qiao Lan naturally looked over at Tan Mo's place, exactly as he had done when he had just come downstairs.

Thinking of Tan Mo's deadly silence when I greeted her the other day, Qiao Lan suddenly wanted to really understand Asperger syndrome in its entirety.

However, Qiao Lan does not have the means to do so yet. Qiao Lan's clothes are leftover from the Qiao Family's two sisters, so there is no way she can use her mobile phone to look up information, and the Qiao Family does not have a computer either.

Qiao Lan did not go back to Qiao's father Qiao's mother's restaurant for a few days because he already knew where the Qiao family lived, so he went straight home.

In the afternoon, Qiao's grandmother was sitting on the sofa, watching TV, and Qiao Yuan had not yet returned.

After waiting for a while, Qiao's grandmother answered the phone and said something that Qiao Lan could not hear while sitting in the room.

It was nearly seven o'clock when Qiao Lan got a little hungry and went out of the room to take a look in the kitchen, but there was nothing but a bowl of cold rice in the rice cooker.

Qiao Lan thought about it and asked Qiao's grandmother if she wasn't going to cook today. Qiao's grandmother leaned on the sofa and glared, "Don't you have arms or legs?

Qiao's grandmother, an old lady, can't eat much in the evening, so some oil tea will do. As for Qiao Lan, Qiao's grandmother doesn't care whether Qiao Lan is hungry or not, she still has a bowl of rice if she is hungry.

Qiao Lan looks at Qiao's grandmother for a moment and turns around to go back to the kitchen.

The conditions at Qiao Family are not too bad, the restaurant is small and shabby, but after all, it is located in front of the school, so there is still a good flow of customers, otherwise they would not have bought Qiao Yuan's shoes for thousands of dollars.

If you can afford to buy thousands of dollars of shoes, your family's food is not bad either, but only Qiao Lan's.

Qiao's grandmother has to cook for Qiao Yuan every day, trying to find ways to cook delicious food for her grandson.

There was still cold rice in the pot, so Qiao Lan took two eggs and some vegetables, and a piece of meat from the freezer.

Qiao's grandmother was sitting outside watching TV happily and didn't even think about Qiao Lan, when a smell came out of the kitchen after sitting for a while.

Qiao's grandmother, who doesn't even watch TV anymore, puts on her shoes and runs to the kitchen, and almost gets a brain thrombosis when she goes in.

Qiao Lan fried himself an egg fried rice and made two more dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, the meat dish was huge and it was beef!

Qiao Lan used to cook for herself, but the most she could do was to stir-fry fried rice or shredded potatoes, so Qiao's grandmother didn't bother. The beef she bought yesterday was much more expensive than the pork and chicken, and she was saving it for her grandchildren, but Qiao Lan lost it all!

Qiao's grandmother didn't even think about rushing to take the beef away, Qiao Lan stopped her with one hand and brought the plate back with the other, "What are you doing?"

"Who asked you to fry this do not you know how expensive beef, just one person eat fried so much for what, eat a dish is enough", said again to grab.

Qiao Lan was carrying the food in one hand and walking out. Qiao's grandmother was not tall and her back was slowly bending as she got older. What will your parents eat and what will your brother eat?"

Qiao Lan was too lazy to break down Qiao's grandmother, so she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

Qiao's grandmother had a small bowl of rice for lunch, and Qiao Lan was really hungry at the moment.

Qiao's grandmother couldn't get it away from her, so she kept cursing, but when she saw how fast Qiao Lan was eating, she had no choice but to run to the kitchen and get another pair of chopsticks.

Don't let Qiao Lan eat it all!

Hastily grabbing the largest piece of beef on the plate, he popped it into his mouth and chewed it.

No chewing.

It also choked my teeth.

Last year, Qiao's father offered to give Qiao's grandmother a denture, but Qiao's grandmother didn't do it because it was too expensive, saying that she didn't eat much at her age and that it didn't matter if she just had some porridge.

Qiao's grandmother covered her mouth with toothache, a mouthful of meat choked her and she felt like she was going to lose her pressure, screaming in anger, "Don't make it if you can't make it, who can eat it if it's so hard!"

Qiao Lan slowly took a chunk of meat and put it in his mouth, "I can."

Qiao's grandmother: ......

Qiao Lan, as if deliberately showing Qiao's grandmother how good her teeth are, ate very quickly, and when she was done Qiao Lan even thoughtfully gave Qiao's grandmother a piece of potato, "This stew has been cooked for a long time, eat this."

Qiao's grandmother: ......

Pissed off chest pains.

Qiao's grandmother sat across from Qiao Lan watching her eat, and began to fall into self-doubt.

Is this still the same old three of her family who was timid enough to say and do anything?

What's wrong with you lately, why are you suddenly not afraid of her?

Qiao's grandmother hurriedly pressed the plate, "Enough is enough, prepare to eat as much as you can, save the rest for your brother to eat later.

"It's already ten o'clock when Qiao Yuan comes back, and you still dare to give him food."

Qiao's grandmother: ......

Qiao Yuan has grown too fat and the other day the doctor told him to eat less, especially at night, and not to eat anything after dinner, especially big fish and meat. Qiao's father has not allowed Qiao Yuan to eat late night snacks recently, and although Qiao's grandmother is distressed, she is worried that her grandson is growing too fat and unhealthy, so she has no choice but to stop giving Qiao Yuan food.

Qiao's grandmother felt that she usually disliked people like a cannonball, but today she was blocked by Qiao Lan and couldn't say a word, seeing that Qiao Lan had finished all the food.

"It's not like you can finish such a big plate, you usually eat that little..."

That's because there's only so much to eat.

This body is starving like this, what is there not to eat, eat as much as you can without fear of gaining flesh.

Qiao's grandmother is at her wit's end, with only one mouth left.

The Lu Lu in Qiao's grandmother's mouth is Qiao's second uncle's daughter, who is in the same school and grade as Qiao Lan, but not in the same class, and last time she scored tenth in her class in the monthly exam, which her parents bragged about as if she was in the top ten of her grade.

Qiao Lan's second sister Qiao Han, who is just 20 years old, is married to a businessman of almost 40 years old who is married for the second time and has a child.

Qiao Lan thinks she should stop listening to Qiao's grandmother, for fear that her outlook on the world will collapse.

Qiao's grandmother, Qiao Lan, is still eating calmly.

Qiao's grandmother looked at her languidly and was furious, her chest hurting even more.
