Chapter 18 He is really good looking

There are more than a dozen people in Class S.

Growing up in Olympiad tutoring classes, they are all arrogant and think they are the next Gauss.

Some are holding umbrellas in class, some are shaking their heads while listening to rap with headphones on, and some are catching up on sleep with sunglasses on...

All the weirdos Lin Lang had ever met in his life were gathered here. It was a quiet spot in the midst of all the madness, and even the most pretentious cool guy seemed particularly amiable.

After a year, he became lonely and crazy, and was eager to find a normal person to train with.

Today it was his turn to collect the test papers together, and he wanted to take the opportunity to chat with Xu Jiqing, but when he looked up, he saw that the person had already counted the test papers and pushed the door open to leave.

Lin Lang jumped up, trotted over, and bumped into the other person's shoulder. "Why didn't you wait for me?"

Xu Jiqing stepped aside and said, "It doesn't take two people to do this."

"...Tell this to Master Zhang. Don't let yourself get away with it and end up dying."

Lin Lang put his hands in his pockets, still thinking about the time he had just spied on the cheerleading team practicing, "Why are you so anxious?"

Xu Jiqing didn't look at him, "I have something to do later."

"Go downstairs and see Huang Weiwei."

Lin Lang felt that his reasoning was sound, and with a sigh, he began to act like a good brother. "I see. The third floor is still too far away, and you don't have a telescope."

Xu Jiqing: "Who is that?"

"...Fuck, are you serious?"

This time it was Lin Lang's turn to be surprised. He glanced back and forth at his expression. "You must have seen the promotional video on the big screen at the school gate. That fairy lady dancing in the center position."

Xu Jiqing's expression remained unchanged. "No impression."

Lin Lang clicked his tongue and didn't believe it at all.

"Then who were you looking at just now, Jiang He, Zhao Siyu, or Shen Shuyi from Class 6?"

He called out a few more names, all of them were girls in the front row of the cheerleading squad, but the one next to him didn't respond at all.

Those are the ice-breaking topics between boys.

Games, balls, and girls.

Xu Jiqing didn't respond at all, which made him feel embarrassed and ashamed, as if he was being ridiculed.

There were only two steps left to Zhang Jianyuan's office. Lin Lang really couldn't guess what was going on. Just by the window, a chubby little white cat jumped onto the air-conditioning rack and took two steps on the red brick railing.

He tried to save face by muttering, "Okay, okay, I'll just treat you like a kitten."

Xu Jiqing didn't stop walking, but looked at the cat in silence for two seconds, then thought of a pair of sparkling almond eyes, "I guess so."

Whoever is pretty will be liked by everyone.

Xu Jiqing has never been in love and has no interest in such topics.

Ever since he could remember, all he heard were Lin Yuezhen's sobs and screams, and he was hit by iron clothes hangers and wine bottles. He had to protect Xu Jiaojiao and work day and night to make money to pay off his debts.

Growing up in a family like that, I spent all my energy just trying to survive.

What is liking someone? What does it feel like to be loved?

Xu Jiqing didn't know and couldn't imagine it.

This was too much of a luxury for him.

At the age of seventeen, it was Xu Jiqing’s first summer in Jiangcheng.

He just met a beautiful kitten that he couldn't afford to keep.

It would never belong to him, and he didn't know how to make her happy, but when she meowed at him, he agreed to anything.

As long as he has, as long as he can.

It made no sense, it was just his instinct.

-

I felt tired of studying every day when I was studying.

Only when you enter society will you realize how simple these little troubles are.

Gradually adapting to the pace of high school life, Su Xia spent this week much more relaxed than when she first came back.

She now has cheats for the most difficult math and physics, so she doesn't have to worry about handing in homework at all.

Relying on the care of the school orchestra teacher, she also dragged He Miao into the provincial youth orchestra selection group. After dinner every day, He Miao would follow her into the small piano room in the art and sports building and practice until the end of the first evening self-study get out of class.

Su Xia learned the cello by herself, but not the piano.

On the first day I went there, the red velvet cloth was lifted to reveal a brand new Steinway tripod piano shining brightly.

He Miao's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't even call out, and he didn't dare to put his hands up, "Isn't this the piano that Zhou Zhiyan practiced on..."

"Who told you it was his?"

Su Xia leaned on the small sofa in an awkward position, patted her chest, and said, "This building was donated by my mother."

"Ms. Su isn't here right now. Little Ms. Su said it for her. You can play it as much as you want. No one can take it away from you."

He Miao's eyes were almost filled with tears, "Wow, Xia Xia, you are so kind."

Su Xia snorted, "You just found out?"

"Copy my name a hundred times as punishment."

The new piano room had excellent soundproofing, with a comfortable, quiet breeze blowing. There were even snacks that Su Xia had already placed there.

There are potato chips, biscuits and chocolates. I bought them for Zhou Zhiyan before.

Su Xia is not the kind of person who would throw things away after breaking up.

Spend when you should, save when you should.

It would be such a waste to throw away the imported goods that he carefully selected after doing his homework. It is his loss if he does not know how to appreciate them.

With all the bad temptations gathered in the room, it was a great achievement for the two girls to maintain their original intention for 35 minutes. They spent the rest of the time gossiping.

The topic circled around the most influential person in the school, and finally fell back to the mysterious empty seat next to Su Xia.

"I only heard they were exempt from math and science before, but now I find out they're just registered with our class. Will the next time I see Xu be for graduation photos?"

Su Xia responded casually, "That's not the case."

She knew about the matter of registered student status.

There were several boys in the experimental class next door who had failed the physics competition. Just as He Miao said, they were either receiving training at school or taking small classes somewhere. Before the big-character poster about admission came out, they had never been seen in the building.

But Xu Jiqing is different.

In her memory, the probability of Xu Jiqing coming back for evening self-study in her previous life was quite high. When she woke up in a daze and closed the window, she could always see someone next to the last row of trash cans.

As long as there is no competition or training outside.

Xu Jiqing just sat there, wearing the same long-sleeved school uniform that had been washed until it turned white, but it was still clean.

The zipper is pulled up to the top, revealing thin and broad shoulders, a sharp jawline, and tight, thin lips.

The sliding window on Class 4 had been broken for years, and because there weren't many people sitting behind it, it had never been reported. When she closed it, a gap opened next to Xu Jiqing.

It’s not so bad in the summer, but on a rainy winter night, even your breath is white.

In the cold wind, Xu Jiqing seemed to feel nothing.

He just sat there concentrating on doing the national competition simulation questions, his cold eyebrows drooped, his nose was straight, and the light made his skin look cold and pale. No matter how she pulled the window, he never said a word of no.

"Maybe he'll be back in two days."

He Miao nodded, "If all else fails, we can still go and see it."

"I have a friend who's in the physics competition class on the first floor of the administration building. She told me a few days ago that Xu is really famous now because the S class has different get out of class times than other students, and many girls go sightseeing while they're in class."

"How can you be so bold? That's right next to the principal's office. Aren't you afraid of getting caught?"

This is pretty much the same as she remembered.

The only thing is that the scenic spot is not in Class 4, it has been moved to a new location.

I can't remember exactly what her reaction was in my previous life.

It seemed like he was using it to serve as a foil for Zhou Zhiyan, and to drag him down in front of his friends.

But now, after listening to it, Su Xia felt inexplicably proud. When she raised her eyes, they sparkled, "What a classy person."

"I told you, he's really good-looking."
