"Chiang Xiao, are you going to buy one? We're planning to go to Xinhua Bookstore together, do you want to come with us?" The girl sitting at the same desk as Chiang Xiao was a girl named Zheng Ruyi, who had asked to change seats last semester. When Liu Guohua found out, he suggested she sit with Zheng Ruyi.
That was because Zheng Ruyi was a very quiet girl with average grades, but there seemed to be room for improvement.
Chiang Xiao thought her teacher really did worry too much.
She knew what he meant, Zheng Ruyi wouldn't bother her or cause a commotion, and wouldn't really affect her existing habits. Plus, her earnestness in class and her ability to highlight important points in her notes might influence Zheng Ruyi and help improve her grades.
It wasn't until after Chiang Xiao had been Zheng Ruyi's desk-mate for a semester that she discovered Zheng Ruyi was also learning to draw, but she was learning how to draw comics.
