A campus ensemble story, with slow-burn humor.
Fragment 1: Regarding Bro Yang's fear of dogs.
"Woof!"
Gao Liyang: "Help—"
Zhou Xi chuckled: "You...
Bad love
"Bang!"
Xiao Xiaoyu threw her schoolbag on the table with her strong arms and ran towards Zhou Xi in a hurry.
"Sister Zhou, look!"
"God damn it—"
There is definitely someone behind the scenes. Last night she criticized Gao Liyang and also paid attention to the news in the forum. Because of the clarification, the popularity of the two of them has subsided. At most, there was some jealousy from some people, and then it died down.
But she was afraid that something would happen again, so she stayed up until three in the morning before going to bed. As a result, she got up early in the morning and looked at her phone. Damn, something happened again. She was holding back her emotions, so she decided to make a big move and kill them with one blow.
Zhou Xi glanced at the post. It was a bunch of sweet and cute words that were everywhere, with intimate photos attached. However, the angle of the photo was really not good, and the composition was unbearable. The photo was only supported by two faces.
There is a red pepper explosion around the topic, and it is trending upwards.
She wasn't so blind that she couldn't recognize her own face. The first photo was taken when she was eating in the cafeteria, with Gao Liyang sitting opposite her. Coincidentally, the photo was taken when the two of them were looking at each other unintentionally. They always ate together every day, but this photo had been screenshotted, and there were only the two of them in the picture, and they were also looking for some industrial saccharin in the glass shards.
The second photo was of her alone in the classroom, facing the wall and reflecting on her mistakes. Gao Liyang came in to give her milk tea. However, the angle of this photo was rather tricky. She was lying on the table, and Gao Liyang was looking at her with his arms propped up. The two of them were quite close to each other. The lights were not on, and it was dim, creating an ambiguous atmosphere. Zhou Xi discovered that Gao Liyang had so much hair, like a chicken coop basket.
There are also some photos of two people in the same frame, handsome man and beautiful woman, it would be strange if they don’t get confused.
Another reason was probably that Zhou Xi was too famous. The news of their winning the competition just spread throughout the school yesterday. It was the hottest time, and someone in the building pointed out Zhou Xi's grades. He was the top student in his grade and a top student. All of them were hot topics.
Zhou Xi was speechless. No wonder someone gave her a deathly glare when she entered the classroom. Their gossipy eyes made it seem like they wanted to strip her naked.
This good relationship between classmates was maliciously misinterpreted, and they were both drowned in spit and questioned by teachers and parents...
Idiot.
Zhou Xi found it funny, how could it be such a coincidence.
"Sister Zhou, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Xiaoyu bit her lip and looked at Zhou Xi anxiously. She would never support these two even if she was beaten to death. Si Yang was not worthy of her sister Zhou. But what if this affected the harmony of their Wufulinmen family?
"Yeah..." Gao Yuanyuan's face turned pale beside him.
Zhou Xi looked up and saw the worried eyes of the two men. He forced a smile and said, "The emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is. Don't worry, I'm fine. I won't be angry like a ball, and I won't eat coptis."
Gao Liyang was calm and composed at the side. He had seen a lot of storms and waves, so he didn't take it to heart at all. Besides, his sister Zhou was so awesome that she definitely wouldn't take it to heart. He was just bored and wanted to pull Zhou Xi's hair, but was discovered by Xiao Xiaoyu, who slapped him with her iron sand palm, almost sending him flying.
"Damn Yang, what the hell are you doing? You're the one who's making trouble for others!!!" Xiao Xiaoyu snapped, "You just like having your hair pulled? Fine, I'll give you enough!"
"I'll go, I'll go, Sister Zhou, save me!" Gao Liyang hid behind Zhou Xi, patted her shoulder, and whispered, "Don't worry, based on my experience, this matter will be over in a couple of days. If you think I've damaged your reputation, I'll treat you to a meal and apologize."
Zhou Xi sighed: "Go away, sit down."
Gao Yuanyuan received Zhou Xi's signal and hugged Xiao Xiaoyu tightly: "Calm down, calm down!"
"Calm down, you bastard, come here! I'll kill you!"
"See? Don't touch me from now on. Watch out for Princess Iron Fan hitting you."
Gao Liyang touched his nose and said, "Oh."
"Forget it. With your character, it's like playing the lute to a cow. I can't count on you."
"Haha." Gao Liyang laughed dryly, "What you said is true. I'm not an ox."
"Yuanyuan, did you see that? Did you see that? Si Yang is still harassing our Sister Zhou. A warrior can be killed but not humiliated. We must defend Sister Zhou!"
"You're so good with my mouth, why don't you ask her?"
"No more, no more, it's not funny."
Zhou Xi felt that he was sometimes very bold, and in times like this when things were chaotic and all was said and done, he felt like doing something.
"Miss, calm down. Please help me and use your social skills..."
During the morning self-study, the first and second grade classes were as lively as a vegetable market. Who among the Chinese who love the hustle and bustle all their lives doesn’t want to eat some melons, especially some shocking melons for them.
"Yuanyuan, I'm so sad, what should I do? They left us alone to do something..."
"Then, you go too." Gao Yuanyuan held an English book as a cover and whispered to Lu Zisheng who came to her.
Lu Zisheng's expression changed in an instant: "Forget it, Eagle will ask me to endorse it later, so they can fend for themselves."
Meng Qian turned around and stayed at Zhou Xi's position for a second, then turned back as if nothing had happened and lowered her head to recite.
"Lao Zhang, Lao Zhang, my dear Lao Zhang, could you please ask the student union to delete the Ba Ba Ba post? We've already explained everything from beginning to end, could you please help us suppress it?"
Xiao Xiaoyu blew on the steaming tea in her hand, and the lackey handed the cup to Zhang Tu with both hands.
Zhang Tu took it calmly, then looked up at the three people standing in front of him: "Tell me honestly, do you have any of these things? Think about it before answering."
"Teacher, no." Zhou Xi met Zhang Tu's gaze without any hesitation or panic.
"Lao Zhang, you think too much. I'm a good kid. What's the point of falling in love early?" Gao Liyang was so leisurely that he sat down on an empty swivel chair and turned around.
Xiao Xiaoyu squatted beside Zhang Tu, analyzing his situation and trying to convince him: "And Lao Zhang, let me tell you..."
“…”
Zhang Tu's expression was hidden by his thick glasses. "Okay, I'll give you a chance. I believe you. I won't notify your parents. Hurry and go back to class."
Xiao Xiaoyu closed the door and turned around: "It's so easy, just a few words and it's over, and he didn't scold us, he won't try to trick us again, right?"
"But I'm going to go up there and yell at them again later, to show them how strong I am. We have nothing to hide. Let's see what else they can say. Don't make me laugh."
Zhou Xi glanced at the person next to him, frowned, and said nothing.
Gao Liyang was puzzled by the look and gave him a questioning look.
"Don't worry, I don't want to be your peach blossom."
Zhou Xi tilted her head and looked straight at Gao Liyang. Those psychopaths said that she was just one of Gao Liyang's thousands of peach blossoms, and told her not to be so cocky, because the next one would be right around the corner. She laughed so hard that she didn't know what to say. What kind of middle school speech was that? Come on if you have the guts, and it would be best if there were so many of them that Gao Liyang would be drowned.
Gao and Xiao were stunned for a second, and Xiao Xiaoyu was successfully amused.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Oh my god! Yangyang, look how scared our sister Zhou is! You have too many bad peach blossoms!"
Before, there was a girl who had her eyes on Zhou Xi. She was so sticky and clung to him like a dog-skin plaster, saying things like, "You thought you succeeded? What do you think Zhou Xi looks like? He's just ordinary, so-so." She also made all kinds of inexplicable remarks.
Can Zhou Xi endure it?
cannot.
She started to criticize Gao Liyang directly, but Gao Liyang also got excited and started to complain about his experience.
He said a boy shyly handed him a love letter, and the shock he received nearly made him vomit. He stood straight, straight...
He was so scared that he thought he was so handsome that all the boys were attracted to him. Fortunately, it was a false alarm. The boy wanted to pass the love letter to Zhou Xi through his hand.
Damn, what a coward, he didn't even dare to give the love letter in person, and he looked at the boy timidly.
Haha, Zhou Xi also attracts bad peach blossoms, they are the same.
Gao Liyang wanted to say something, but when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he turned around and said, "Oh, you don't think I want to be your peach blossom, do you?"
Then he strode away.
"Damn, Sister Zhou, you are so awesome. Look at you, you have left our Brother Yang speechless. Okay, keep up the good work and try to suppress Yang Yang under the Five Elements Mountain so that he can't make trouble again." Xiao Xiaoyu laughed so hard that tears came out and she couldn't straighten her back.
Zhou Xi's mind was not on this, and he felt vaguely uneasy.
Zhang Tu had just sent everyone back to class when a young teacher came over and said, "Hey, Old Zhang, how can this matter just be brushed aside like that? Premature love among students is a major concern for Director Wan."
"Hey, Mr. Liu, stop teasing me. I think the kids in your class, who you've spoiled, are all well behaved."
"Let them make more noise as they please, it's okay." Liu Manci leaned his head back on the chair, looking relaxed.
"Anyway, let's just have the student union administrator delete the post and suppress the matter. Slowly, other gossip will surface, and naturally, no one will care. Besides, I really don't know how to manage these three people in our class."
"Listen."
Zhang Tu started talking.
"First, Zhou Xi, you said she has good grades and is obedient. You said she's in a premature relationship. What evidence do you have? Did it affect her grades? Or is it based on those deliberately edited photos? There's still a monthly exam. We'll see the results then. Besides, she has someone to look after her. I won't interfere."
"Second, Xiao Xiaoyu. This child has no one at home. Her parents are both abroad. Humph, she is her own guardian. The most I can do is talk to her in person. The child is quite pitiful."
Zhang Tu gently covered the cup. "The third one is Gao Liyang. His parents are also very busy. The child has just started school, but he hasn't come yet. The messages I sent have fallen on deaf ears. What can I do?"
"Oh, these three talented young men in your class are so talented. They are really pitiful."
"Who says it's not? Of course I still have to give him a warning. In half a month, after the monthly exams, I'll bring it up at the parents' meeting."
"Tsk, these days, it's really all about money and power..." Liu Manci sighed.
"Teaching is said to have a stable job and a good reputation, but I never agree. It looks respectable, but in reality it's exhausting. I have to take care of dozens of students, and they get sick and their grades drop. Tsk tsk tsk!"
Iron rice bowl, popular job, Zhang Tu pondered these six words and smiled silently.
"Hey, Lao Tu, do you want to eat it?" Liu Manci handed over the box.
Zhang Tu held the warm cup in his hand without moving, his eyes narrowed: "I'm not eating anymore. I just drank tea and I'm not in the mood. But cherries, such an expensive fruit, it seems like you're living a good life."
"It's delicious, but I'll just eat the food at home. With my salary, I really can't afford to spend it."
Zhang Tu sighed, "I have elderly parents and young children to take care of now, so my son's education is even more important. I just signed him up for an interest class two days ago. It's so expensive!"
Liu Manci turned on the computer, loaded the game and spun around for a while before entering the game page. "Ah, life is like that. But this semester is going to pass quickly. There's still more than a month until the holiday. By then, all the subsidies, year-end bonuses, and tuition fees will have come in. I'll have money, right? Don't worry."
"Old Tu, you know, slacking off in the office is so cool. I looked forward to it every day when I was a student."
Zhang Tu hit him on the head and slapped a pile of notebooks: "You kid, forget about enjoying yourself and playing games. Have you finished correcting your homework?"
"No rush, no rush. I'll come back tomorrow morning to correct the first and second periods of my class. Let's take a break today."
"Otherwise, I get so angry when I see the students' homework that I want to scold them. If I correct it today, I'll be angry for another day. If I correct it tomorrow, it'll be a good time to scold them all at once."
Zhang Tu flipped through the desk calendar in his hand and said, "Your calculations make sense, but there's a grade meeting tomorrow morning, and I don't know how long it will take."
"I..." Liu Manci quickly withdrew his smile.
There were several buses parked at the school gate, and students carrying large and small bags got on the buses one after another.
"Sister Zhou, Yuanyuan, I can't bear to leave you!"
Xiao Xiaoyu pouted: "Wow, I don't want to go!"
Lu Zisheng helped Xiao Xiaoyu carry the sketchpad stand, chewing gum in his mouth, a little steam coming out. "This school is really weird. The monthly exam is coming up, and they still asked you to go sketching. Why don't you wait until after the exam?"
"That's right, don't be sad, Xiaoyu. Lu Zisheng is right. There are benefits to it, right? You don't have to take the exam anymore." Gao Yuanyuan patted Xiao Xiaoyu's back gently and comforted her.
"By the way, this is for you."
Xiao Xiaoyu took it, opened the package directly, and put it on her hand: "Woo woo, Yuanyuan is really thoughtful. My hands always get cold when I draw. Although wearing gloves is inconvenient to draw, it is much better than getting frostbite on my hands."
"Hurry up, hurry up, don't dawdle, make the most of your time!" The teacher in charge walked around with a small loudspeaker.
"Let's go, let's go, Miss Xiao, don't worry, we are waiting for you to come back."
"good!"
Xiao Xiaoyu closed her mouth, wiped her tears, made up her mind, took the drawing board from Lu Zisheng's hand, and ran away panting.
Lu Zisheng put his arm on Gao Liyang's shoulder, and leaned on him as if he had no bones. It was quite comfortable through the thin down jacket.
"Move over, it's as heavy as a pig."
"No, Brother Yang, I've just moved the drawing board, and my hands are so tired. Let me lean on it, just for a while, just for a while."
Gao Liyang was startled by the green tea tone and pushed the person out: "Hey, that's disgusting. Who did you learn this from? You're so dramatic."
"Oh my god!" Lu Zisheng was caught off guard and lost control as he fell onto Gao Yuanyuan next to him.
Fortunately, Zhou Xi was quick-eyed and pulled Gao Yuanyuan over, saving her from the sudden disaster.
Gao Yuanyuan was still immersed in the sad mood of Xiao Xiaoyu's departure, and didn't react immediately. She glanced at Lu Zisheng without saying a word.
Lu Zisheng thought he had offended someone and stood up straight: "Sorry, hehe!"
He turned around and swung at Gao Liyang without using any force: "If you are not a brother, how dare you trick me like this!"
Zhou Xi glanced at the license plate number of the car Xiao Xiaoyu was sitting in: "Serves you right."
"No, Sister Zhou, I treat you as my goddess, and you still bully me. You guys really have no love!"
“Ding ding ding!”
A series of buses moved slowly.
"Woo woo woo! Yuanyuan, Sister Zhou, I will miss you!"
At some point, Xiao Xiaoyu poked her head out, her hands still tugging at the window: "Yuanyuan, when you buy those books, remember to bring one for me. I want one too!"
Fortunately, the full name was not read out. Gao Yuanyuan was so shocked that her face almost turned red: "Oh, oh, okay, I remember it. Be careful on the road!"
Gao Yuanyuan speaks much more fluently now.
Lu Zisheng clasped his hands together and circled them around his mouth: "Take care, Miss! I'll take good care of your flowers! Don't worry, study hard, and remember to draw me a handsome picture!"
"Go away!"
“Ahhhh!”
The car completely disappeared from sight, and the four of them stared at each other, and then fell silent.
Lu Zisheng wiped away a few non-existent tears: "Dear Sister Yuanyuan Zhou, don't worry, Brother Yang and I will protect you well during the time when Miss Xiao is away!"
The remaining three people couldn't bear to watch, so they turned around and left without saying a word.
Lu Zisheng was alone and disheveled in the cold wind.
