Chapter 5

After hearing this, Jiang Qiao pondered for a moment and said, "No wonder I forced him to love me."

166: [……………………]

Why did it feel that Jiang Qiao was gloating over his misfortune?! It must have heard it wrong, it must have!

When they arrived at the classroom, the class was already halfway through. The Chinese teacher was a short old man. He said a few words to the two latecomers and let them in.

[Oh, are teachers so good-tempered nowadays?] Jiang Qiao was late for the first class after the new semester and thought he would be punished by standing.

The sun outside is so strong, standing for half a class is no joke.

[Hmph.], 166 said in a proud tone.

Jiang Qiao raised his eyebrows and guessed: [Did Song Qingying report to the teacher in advance?]

[What else?], 166 said: [It has to be a beautiful and kind-hearted heroine, otherwise you two can just stand outside, hehe...]

Stupid and vicious female supporting role, why don’t you show your gratitude to the heroine!

166’s voice is about to come out.

Jiang Qiao thought it was seriously ill and rolled his eyes.

Song Qingying did this obviously because she was worried that Lu Xun would be punished. She was just doing this as a side job.

If anyone is to express gratitude, it should be Lu Xun who pledges his love to her.

I really want to see what Lu Xun looks like when he lets down his guard towards someone.

Thinking of this, she looked at the two people sitting by the window.

Song Qingying, who was sitting inside, was petite and slender, while the boy was tall and strong, able to cover her entire body.

Jiang Qiao saw Lu Xun tilt his head towards Song Qingying on the inside.

The shadows cast by the sycamore leaves outside the window on the desks fluttered in the wind. The boy with his head slightly lowered, the girl with a blushing face, the restless youth, everything was just right.

Ye Qingqing called Jiang Qiao several times in a low voice, but Jiang Qiao didn't hear her. Seeing that the teacher on the stage was very absorbed in his talk, Ye Qingqing approached Jiang Qiao and gossiped, "You also think there's something going on between them, right?"

Jiang Qiao's eyes moved slightly, and he turned around to meet Ye Qingqing's sparkling eyes. He smiled and pretended to be stupid, "Who is it?"

"It's just Lu Xun and the squad leader."

Squad leader? Jiang Qiao was a little surprised: "Song Qingying?"

“It should be called this name…”, Ye Qingqing said uncertainly.

The Chinese teacher who was giving the lecture was also the head teacher. In the first half of the class when Jiang Qiao was not there, the head teacher had already appointed most of the class leaders.

Because Song Qingying was also the discipline committee member and helped her classmates report, the head teacher felt that she cared about her classmates and was kind-hearted, so he directly appointed her as the class monitor.

Of course, there are other reasons why other students are not interested in the position of class monitor.

Being interrupted by Jiang Qiao, she remembered something else. She heard from other classmates: "I heard that you had a quarrel with her this morning. What happened?"

She didn't think that this squad leader who looked easy to bully would dare to make a decision with Jiang Qiao. It was probably Jiang Qiao's unilateral decision.

But Jiang Qiao is usually a bit spoiled, but he wouldn't bully others like this. She was curious about how Song Qingying had offended Jiang Qiao, and it would be best if it wasn't the reason she guessed.

"I wasn't wearing a school uniform and she wanted to remember my name. Then I offered to help her remember it and she got anxious. What could have happened?" Jiang Qiao said innocently.

Ye Qingqing's mouth twitched: "Miss, you are quite helpful."

But at least it wasn't the reason she guessed.

Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to skip this topic when Jiang Qiao suddenly lowered his head and said something to her.

"What! You want to chase Lu Xun!" Ye Qingqing stood up suddenly, her voice out of control.

……………………

As soon as the words fell, the already quiet classroom became even quieter, with eyes shooting over from all directions.

Jiang Qiao: “……………………”, you can speak louder.

She tried hard to ignore the scrutinizing gaze from the window and pulled Ye Qingqing to sit down: "Teacher. Excuse me, please continue."

This is outrageous. What do you think of a classroom as? Are you going to a market?

The teacher was about to scold when the bell rang. He walked to the door with the book in hand and stopped: "Lu Xun, come to my office. I have something to tell you."

The boy by the window stood up and walked out of the classroom with a calm expression.

Ye Qingqing also realized what she had just done. She felt the glances of her classmates from time to time and said guiltily, "You know, I can't hold back."

Jiang Qiao waved his hand and said, "It's okay."

According to the plot, she had to pursue Lu Xun first. Given her and Lu Xun's popularity, by then not only her classmates but probably the entire high school department would know about it.

It's just the difference between earlier and later.

*

The bell for the second class rang, but Lu Xun didn't come back.

As a promising student with the potential to become the top student in the province, it is easy to guess that the old teacher in charge would persuade him earnestly not to fall in love too early.

As the bell rang, Lu Xun had just returned to the classroom and sat down when the teacher arrived.

The female teacher on the stage had a gentle voice and spoke fluent and pleasant English.

Lu Xun listened carefully, but after ten minutes, he didn't remember a single word.

The last words of the head teacher echoed uncontrollably in my mind—

"Lu Xun, you have to know that people are different. Don't ruin your future because of a momentary impulse."

Some people sit in this classroom to experience every stage of life; while others have no choice but to take a gamble.

These two types of people are destined to be two parallel lines that do not intersect. Even if they are forced to intersect at some point, the end result will only be that they will go further and further away, and become so close yet so far away.

He had known this truth since he was a child, so he said without thinking, "I can't."

Not to mention that he doesn't like Jiang Qiao, even if he really likes her, he won't compromise for anyone.

If she doesn't want to, someone will naturally replace her, and whoever leaves the other cannot survive.

However, when a young lady like Jiang Qiao said she liked him, it was probably just because she was attracted to him temporarily and had never been rejected before, so her self-esteem was at work.

During the last physical education class, Jiang Qiao sat on the open-air stands, biting a popsicle with a crackling sound. The breeze mixed with the smell of the plastic track blew in his face.

The captain of the high school basketball team kept looking at her. Jiang Qiao raised her eyebrows: [See? This is my charm.]

[Ah, yes, yes.] 166 was unwilling to admit it but could not refute it, so he just kept sending garbled text in frustration.

Ye Qingqing came back from the toilet and slowed down her pace when she passed by the high school students who were playing basketball. She was very ladylike.

The captain of the basketball team ignored her, his clear eyes always looking in Jiang Qiao's direction.

Ye Qingqing sat next to Jiang Qiao and said in a sad tone, "Such a beautiful face, I want to have it in my next life."

Jiang Qiao stopped chewing her popsicle, turned around and looked at the captain of the basketball team who was looking at her. After the captain awkwardly hit the ball into a player, she looked away and said to Ye Qingqing who was looking down and disappointed, "This guy is quite handsome, but his basketball skills are not that good. It's miserable to be his player."

Miss, don’t you know why the ball went off target?

Ye Qingqing snorted twice and unconvincingly explained on behalf of the captain of the basketball team: "Zhou Yue plays basketball very handsomely and even won awards."

"What award? The award for peeping at the little girl?"

"Jiang Qiao!"

Jiang Qiao covered her mouth with a smile, indicating that she would not say anything more. She encouraged Ye Qingqing to deliver water and asked for contact information.

Ye Qingqing waved her hands embarrassedly and said that she didn't dare.

Jiang Qiao was so disappointed that he said, "What's so difficult about this? Just open and close your mouth and it will come over!"

166 couldn't bear to hear her confident speech, he laughed twice, and said sarcastically: [Oh~ It's easy to say, you want to try one. ]

Jiang Qiao: [Provoke me?]

[Just tell me whether you dare or not.], 166 questions.

Hey, this shoddy little system made up of a bunch of code is pretty crazy, even using provocation.
