8 Mysterious Transfer Student

In the past, everytime Xu Mang woke up in the morning, it was a test against life. But ever since he had obtained the 'Lazing In Bed Skill', his hips weren't sore, his legs didn't hurt, and his body was full of energy. More importantly, his allowance had also increased.

"Dad!"

"I'm going to school now." Xu Mang announced as he rushed through the house, this was not a simple goodbye.

"Wait!"

"This is your allowance for breakfast, remember to eat breakfast on time." Xu Jinguo said with a smile of relief on his face, handing him five pieces of one hundred notes. His son was becoming more and more sensible, not even lazing in bed anymore.

"Then, I will accept it." Xu Mang sighed as though it was a heavy burden to carry, putting the notes in his pocket and turning to leave the house.

"Nice!"

"Managed to get another five hundred!"

Xu Mang whistled a tune as he walked, heading toward the bus station.

Beep!

"Student card!"

Still that same seat, at the very last row by the right side of the window. Xu Mang was an old-fashioned person, and he had once tried to sit in other seats, but had felt as though something was missing. Later on when he thought about it, he figured that maybe it was because no other seat had the imprint of his butt on it.

Stopping at a random bus stop, Tang Xin, who had refused to talk to him before, walked into the bus. She looked different today compared to previous times, carrying a more mature look but still somewhat cute.

"Woah!"

"Is this in preparation for the Tomb-Sweeping Day?" Xu Mang asked humbly when he saw that Tang Xin had sat down beside him. "You've got someone you fancy? Or someone who fancies you? Or maybe it's a mutual thing?"

"..."

"Not talking to retarded idiots."

Tang Xin ignored Xu Mang outright, pulling out an English novel instead. 

Xu Mang didn't get annoyed as he continued cheekily, "Is it someone from the school's basketball team? Who was it...what's his name...Big Cockerel?"

"That's his nickname!" Tang Xin replied with a blank expression. "And also, please don't simply add on to it, it's Cockerel, especially in front of a girl. It's impolite."

"It's really him, then?" Xu Mang said in surprise. "I say, you're quite a pretty girl, at least you look like a person, how can your taste be so bad? That dude called Big Cockerel, is he even considered to be a human?"

"What do you know!"

"His academic performance is good and he's good at basketball…" Tang Xin was a little disgruntled. "His looks...I still think that he's way more handsome than you!"

Hearing Tang Xin's words, Xu Mang couldn't help but feel stunned. After staring at her blankly for a while, he let out a regretful sigh. "Sigh, it's such a pity. At such a young age, your eyes have become blind."

Overall Tang Xin's points -1

Xu Mang felt indignant. He had already said that girls in love were illogical, and yet, that was wrong. They weren't just illogical, they were also blind.

Getting off a stop earlier than the one for school, Xu Mang went to a shop and bought three meat buns as well as a cup of fresh soy milk. He ate as he walked toward the school. This bun was very unique. Its gravy was very rich, and with just a small bite, all the juices inside it would flow out.

"Oh!

"Oh gosh, they don't make these Maybach anymore!"

Because the two student council members would stop him from bringing the buns into school, Xu Mang could only stand at the school gates as he ate, and as a result, he saw a Maybach pulling up in front of the school gate. This luxurious scene in front of him made Xu Mang forget about the bun in his hand.

The driver, who was in a full black suit, opened the backseat door, and a middle-aged woman and a little girl emerged. This was the first time Xu Mang had seen such a cute girl, and if you said that she was an angel, people would believe it too.

An average height figure, probably not more than 1.4 meters, fair skin, but…

Sigh!

No matter how great the girl was, there was always a flaw. God was just too fair!

At this time, there was a large group of people rushing out of the school. Xu Mang glanced through the crowd—the principal, vice principal, the teaching directors, as well as a large number of mid to higher level teachers and management people were present.

What the hell?

What was with the huge commotion?

Xu Mang didn't have any intention to look around, taking a bite from his bun. The moment his teeth bit through the skin of the bun, the gravy spewed out of the gap, shooting out like a column of water crystal.

Splat!

...it landed on top of the girl that resembled an angel...how to put it, life was always full of various coincidences.

Suddenly, the scene was a chaotic mess.

There was anxiety, anger, confusion, and in the midst of it all, Xu Mang quietly slipped into the school.

***

"Did you hear?"

"What, what is it?"

"The legendary genius came to report to school today, the principal, vice principal, and everyone was there to meet them in person!"

"Even the principal and vice principal appeared in person to greet them!?"

"Nonsense, think about who she is! Placing first in the youth group of the International Olympic Mathematics Competition, and not once, but three times! And it's internationally…"

"F*ck, you can't merely describe her as just a genius, right?"

"Haha, now you're scared? Her family background is even more scary!"

Xu Mang was sitting in a daze when he heard someone chatting nearby. His curiosity was piqued and he asked enthusiastically, "Is this the girl who came down from the Maybach this morning?"

"..."

"..."

"Let's go over there and chat."

"Sure!"

Watching the two of them leave, Xu Mang wished that he had a gun in his hand to shoot those two dead... what kind of people were they!

Getting angry was one thing, but he still needed to sleep during this class. In the morning, there were two classes, history and geography. The content of the two teachers for these classes was dry and boring, and Xu Mang was quite fond of both these classes. It was easy to slip into his nap.

At first, Xu Mang thought that today would be like any other day. Steady with nothing new happening, however...in the afternoon, the class teacher led a girl into their classroom.

"Let me introduce everyone, this is Yang Xiaoman who has just transferred into our class. She will be taking her third year with you all and then the university entrance examination." Lin Yishan said seriously, "Yang Xiaoman's grades are extremely good, I hope everyone can learn from her."

"..."

Holy sh*t!

It was her!

Xu Mang looked at the girl called Yang Xiaoman and couldn't help but shrink lower in his seat. The gravy from his meat bun this morning had landed on her head, she probably had had to go home and wash up...so embarrassing, he hoped she didn't know who the culprit was.

"Uh…"

"Yang Xiaoman, please sit in front of Xu Mang." Lin Yishan said as he glanced around the class and took note of the empty seat in front of Xu Mang, directing the angelic girl to sit there.

Xu Mang: (￣△￣;)

This…

What to do?

Watching as Yang Xiaoman came over without any expression, Xu Mang hurriedly lowered his head in fear that she would recognize him.

"Let's start the class!" Lin Yishan said as the seating arrangement had been done, and he began the class immediately.

At this time, Xu Mang was happy that the girl didn't recognize him and was about to take his nap. However, he found that she had her head in her hand, staring out at the scenery outside the window, and the picture she made was a bit intoxicating.

"Hello, my name is Xu Mang."

"You also like to daydream?" Xu Mang whispered, "What a coincidence, so do I!"

"..."

"Crazy!" 

Yang Xiaoman ignored Xu Mang, merely glancing at him from the corner of her eye and then opening her political science textbook silently. She suddenly had a strange nagging feeling, almost as though she had seen this guy behind her somewhere before…

Facing Yang Xiaoman's insulting attitude, Xu Mang just passed it off with a smile. Even though she was one of the best girls he had ever met, unfortunately...her height was too short and she had no butt, not to mention, she had quite a temper.

However, she was still a new neighbour, and as the saying goes, distant relatives wouldn't be close neighbours, so you needed to have good relations with your neighbours.

How was he going to establish a good relationship?

Xu Mang thought that talking to her during class was the best way to build a good relationship.

At least in the early stages, this trick was particularly useful.

"Yang Xiaoman."

"How tall are you?"
