A line of notification flashed on the translucent panel in front of Li Chengqian.

[You have listened to the class for 6 minutes. You have received 60 experience value points. You have 289 experience value points remaining in the Experience Pool.]

"Learning from his experience, skill proficiency upgrading shouldn't be done during lesson time." Li Chengqian's heart ached so badly. He quickly walked out after packing up.

In the past, Li Chengqian would usually wait for Jian Qingli to go home together.

But Jian Qingli had already left. If this had happened in his previous life, Li Chengqian would definitely be very upset, but right now he was not affected at all.

"Li Chengqian, over here." Just as he stepped out of the school gates, a clear and pleasant voice rang out.

The person who called out to Li Chengqian was Ding Ling. She was also Li Chengqian's neighbor.

She was wearing a loose-fitting sweater that covered her petite body and a pair of black-framed glasses that covered half her face. A plain hat covered her hair and forehead.

Ding Ling looked plain and ordinary.

Hearing Ding Ling's voice, Li Chengqian paused, and the smile on his face suddenly became bright.

In his previous life, when he failed the university entrance examination and his parents met with a traffic accident, Ding Ling was the only classmate who came to pay respects to his parents. When he was handling his parents' funeral, Ding Ling stood by him and never deserted him.

After the university entrance examination, Ding Ling was admitted to the Divine Dragon Conservatory of Music. During the holidays, she always came to hang out with Li Chengqian, encouraging him not to give up.

Ding Ling then went on to do very well in life. But even so, she would visit and chat with Li Chengqian whenever she could find time to do so.

Li Chengqian naturally knew Ding Ling's intentions. However, because he had been in such a sorry state in his previous life while Ding Ling was doing so well, he felt unworthy of her.

As such, he was deliberately hurtful toward her.

Ding Ling then left with a broken heart.

"Ding Ling." Li Chengqian suppressed his overwhelming emotions and walked over to Ding Ling.

"Eh, why isn't Jian Qingli with you?" At the mention of Jian Qingli, a hint of gloom flashed in Ding Ling's eyes. But in front of Li Chengqian, she could only suppress the bitterness in her heart and act as if everything is alright.

Usually, the three of them would go home together. Rain or shine, Li Chengqian would wait for Jian Qingli.

"Where is she?" Li Chengqian pointed to the opposite side. Jian Qingli was smiling and walking side by side with Bi Jialiang.

Bi Jialiang also noticed that Li Chengqian was looking over. He flashed Li Chengqian a victorious smile and deliberately walked closer to Jian Qingli, parading himself like a triumphant peacock.

"She seems to be in a relationship with Bi Jialiang." Li Chengqian smiled casually and continued, "In the future, the two of us will go home together."

Ding Ling had wanted to say something, but when she heard Li Chengqian say "The two of us will go home together", a shy expression appeared on her face, and her heart started beating wildly.

"Yes." A mosquito-like voice came out of her mouth.

Li Chengqian looked at Ding Ling's shy appearance and cursed himself for being so blind in his previous life.
