Chapter 23: An Ordinary Special Enrollment Student

Li You went to see Zheng Xiaobo off.

Zheng Xiaobo said: "I jumped over the wall and I jumped out again. No need to send me off."

Li You said: "What wall do you need to jump over when I am here?"

Those who don’t know would think that he opened the school.

Ning Song and Qiao Qiao stood there and watched them go away. Qiao Qiao said, "My Xiaobo is still quite loyal, right?"

Ning Song asked: "Is your Xiaobo a straight man?"

Qiao Qiao's eyes widened: "Of course he is, he has been dating his girlfriend for four years!"

That's pure friendship.

That's great.

Ning Song thinks people like them are more suitable for friendship than love.

They will not be able to adapt if love is too private. Friendship is just right, warm and safe. It leaves them with private space and they are not afraid of gaining and losing.

In his mind, Li You used to be a dangerous and brutal school bully. Now he finally knew why his eyes were always gloomy and without a smile.

It's different from Pu Yu's gloomy type.

Pu Yu's gloom is not that heavy, it's more like a kind of loneliness.

He felt that Li You had a soul that was completely inconsistent with his strong appearance.

Maybe he is still as powerful as before, but he has learned to protect himself during the long fight.

"I want to take back the bad things I said about Li You. Today I suddenly felt that he was very pitiful," Qiao Qiao said as he walked. "If you think about it carefully, he is only 18 years old. It is not easy for him."

Ning Song immediately said, "He probably doesn't like others to feel sorry for him. It will make him angry. Don't show it in front of him."

"I know. He doesn't even let anyone know he's from the Lower Harbor. He must have a very strong sense of self-esteem."

Ning Song did not continue to analyze Li You's psychology with Qiao Qiao because he felt the same way and knew that being analyzed was also a kind of harm.

But he understood why Li You didn't want people to know that he came from Xiagang Bay.

It's not that he's afraid that someone will find out and use it as a handle to attack him.

It's not just the complex and sensitive self-esteem of a teenage boy.

It is because people like them need a suit of armor to wrap themselves up in so that others cannot see their true selves.

But Ning Song thinks back to his past self, who was awkward and stubborn. If he hadn't met Teacher Liu who led him onto the right path, who knows what he would have become.

Li You originally had only a small reaction to Ning Song, similar to the instinct of licking each other. But he felt that this week, Ning Song seemed to be less defensive towards him than before.

In the past, Ning Song would call him "Brother You" very obediently and would always look up at him and smile, but he could feel his alienation and even resistance towards him, just like everyone else did towards him.

He was used to the feeling of either loving him or being afraid of him.

But the barrier between Ningsong and him seemed to melt away with the warming weather.

The weather warmed up very quickly this week. The spring in Upper East Province is so short that you can almost smell the hot summer right away.

That day he was playing basketball with Liu Fang and others. He was injured, so after playing a few times he sat aside to watch the game. Suddenly he saw Ning Song running towards him.

Ning Song ran up to him and asked him breathlessly, "Why don't you join the show?"

Li You: “What?”

Ning Song smiled: "Do you know that you can get points by participating in the Spring Festival Club?"

Li You: “…”

Ning Song said, "Your class has a poetry recitation class, so it's easy to get in. I participated in our class's stage play. It's easy to get in with a group of people, and you get points if you stand on stage!"

Li You said: "No, who told you that I didn't have enough points?"

"I saw it on the bulletin board. Didn't you know you were on the bulletin board? Because you had too few points, you were ranked last!"

Li You was actually a little embarrassed and said, "That's because I don't want to earn those points."

"I know, but how are you going to take the entrance exam?"

Li You didn't want to tell Ning Song that his grades were terrible.

He hasn't even had a few years of proper education, so he's doomed to fail the joint entrance examination.

"Are you very free recently?" he asked Ning Song.

Ningsong said in a not-so-soft tone, "If you don't want to, forget it. I'll just ask you one more question."

"Ningsong, you've become more and more rampant recently," he said.

In the past, I would tuck my tail in when I saw him. But recently, because he has been close to some big shots in the school, people don’t dare to laugh at him easily anymore, so my tail is curled up now?

Li You's teeth itched.

Ning Song was even more abominable, pretending to be very obedient: "No, I just think that everyone has participated in the Kasuga Club, which gives points, and it's a pity that you wasted it. It turns out that Brother You didn't like it, and it was all my fault."

Ning Song said and walked away. Li You grabbed the basketball and threw it at him, but of course he didn't really throw it at Ning Song, he threw it on the ground next to him, and seeing Ning Song startled, Li You smiled with satisfaction.

Ning Song kicked the basketball back.

Ning Song is going to work part-time at the book bar today.

The weather was getting hotter, and he ran all the way there, sweating all over. When he arrived, he saw Shen Lingsi sitting inside.

"President?" He pushed the door open.

Shen Lingsi was typing away on the computer. When he saw him come in, he looked at his watch and said, "You're late."

Ning Song smiled, took off her coat, put on her apron, and said to the store manager, "I'm sorry, manager."

The store manager laughed and said, "Just listen to him scare you for a minute."

Shen Lingsi smiled and continued typing on his computer.

The weather is getting warmer, and the sea breeze is no longer cold here. The tennis court is becoming lively, and occasionally there are couples sitting on the stands next to the tennis court, enjoying the breeze and making love.

The sky is blue, the sea is clear, and there are many handsome guys. This BL world actually looks pleasing to the eye.

However, because this place is popular, there are more people staying in the book bar than last week. Because another clerk was sick and took leave, he had a lot of work to do today and was busy all the time. Seeing Shen Lingsi putting up the computer, he smiled and asked, "Are you leaving?"

Shen Lingsi nodded. He had already made his presence felt enough today. He had too much work to do and had to go to the office to deal with it.

For the first time, I felt overwhelmed.

Besides, he is in his third year of high school and will graduate in June. Ning Song, however, will have to stay here for more than a year.

His original plan of taking things step by step had failed, and he had no time to slow down the process.

As if he suddenly remembered something, he asked, "By the way, do you like a band called Elope? I think I saw it written on your application form."

Ning Song nodded.

The application form for Upper East School contained a lot of content, including questions about hobbies, favorite movies, favorite music types, etc. There was a question about who his favorite singer was and what kind of music he liked. He searched online and found that everyone was writing about high-level masterpieces. He felt that it was a bit too much for a student from the poor area who was not good at any musical instrument to be so pretentious, so he filled in a few elopement songs.

Shen Lingsi said, "It seems that their band will be performing on the East Entertainment Channel this week. The show is looking for live audiences. Do you want to go?"

Ning Song asked in surprise: "When and how?"

Shen Lingsi smiled: "If you want to go, I'll ask for you. I don't know the details. Wait for my call."

Ning Song said, "Forget it, it's too troublesome."

"No problem, the tickets are free. Huang Ying's father from the Publicity Department is the director of the entertainment station. We have tickets available in the student union every week. I'll ask for you."

Ning Song was very happy: "Okay, thank you, President."

The president is such a nice person!

Shen Lingsi looked at him with a smile: "Then wait for my call."

Watching Shen Lingsi leave, their store manager praised: "He is handsome, good-tempered, and so outstanding. What window did God close for him?"

He is born to be the male lead, and we can't even envy him as cannon fodder.

But think about it, whether it's Pu Yu, Li You, or Sheng Yan, they all have pink bubbles around them, but Shen Lingsi really doesn't have any.

I just feel that as the president of the student union, he is extremely busy, and therefore he seems more mature and stable than others.

Before he got off work, Shen Lingsi called him and asked him to go to his office after work.

Qiao Qiao is still waiting for Ning Song to finish class so they can go out for dinner together.

He called Qiao Qiao before going to the office building.

Except for the first day of school, this was his second time entering the student union office building.

Last time, I followed Zhou Lu and only went to a large office with many student leaders.

This time he went to the student union president's office.

The student union of Upper East School has great power, and the president's office is not much worse than the principal's. On the mahogany table are the school flag, the union flag, and various honors of their student union. The room is messy but not messy, and there is a very refreshing fragrance.

At this time, most people had already gone off work, only Shen Lingsi was still working.

He is really busy.

When he walked in, Shen Lingsi was still on the phone. He just motioned for him to sit down first while he talked to someone by the window. He seemed to be soliciting sponsorship for the Kasuga Club's performance. He took off his uniform and wore only a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. His voice was gentle and he talked eloquently.

He even believed that if others sponsored their school, their business would immediately soar.

The final result of the talks seemed to be very good, and Shen Lingsi hung up the phone with a smile in his eyes.

He is very suitable for wearing a white shirt, gentle and gentle, with a spring breeze on his face. His appearance is already excellent, and his outstanding work ability naturally adds points.

He walked over to the desk and took some tickets from the drawer and gave them to him.

"I just want one," Ning Song said.

"Ask your classmates if they want to go and they will go with you," Shen Lingsi said.

"President, aren't you going?"

Shen Lingsi said: "I happened to be recording a program at the entertainment station that day, I'll see if I'm free then."

Naturally, every step is planned. Of course, he does not spend a lot of time and effort to arrange the process. How to maximize his own performance is something engraved in his bones and blood, just like a peacock knows when to spread its feathers.

He knows what kind of clothes are most suitable for him, and he also knows how to appropriately display his abilities and naturally bring out the advantages that he wants the other person to know.

The purpose of the Piranha Plant is to open its mouth wide, to be as bright and eye-catching as possible, and to attract attention.

Ning Song asked, "You are going to record a show, what show?"

"A quiz competition show, "Go To Fame", have you seen it?"

no.

He doesn't watch variety shows much.

Shen Lingsi was a little surprised when he saw him shaking his head.

Because when people around him heard about it, they all said, wow, I know this, this is very difficult, President you are so awesome, etc.

He smiled and said, "Then you can see how I perform."

Ning Song nodded, and Shen Lingsi shone even brighter in his heart.

Just like his people.

He felt that Shen Lingsi and Sheng Yan both had light on them, but Sheng Yan's light was brighter, while Shen Lingsi's light was gentler.

"Have you had dinner?" Shen Lingsi asked.

"Not yet." Ning Song asked, holding the ticket, "When do you get off work?"

"I'll move these things over and then I'll be off work."

He was moving some cardboard boxes on the table to the next office. Ningsong stuffed the tickets into his chest pocket and helped him carry them.

"Thank you for your hard work," Shen Lingsi picked up his coat, "Let's go, I'll treat you to a meal, how about a good meal at the food court."

Everything happened naturally, without any deliberateness.

Ning Song said, "No need, Qiao Qiao is still waiting for me in the cafeteria."

"Then let's do it together." Shen Lingsi smiled and glanced at Ning Song's lips.

Qiao Qiao's light bulb is indeed a bit big, and he seems to be around Ning Song all day long.

But luckily it was just a light bulb and didn't pose a threat to him.

When he arrived at the restaurant, he saw that there was more than one light bulb.

There is also a love rival.

Ning Song greeted him with a smile: "Brother Yu."

This time when he and Pu Yu met, the atmosphere was completely different. But Shen Lingsi was very good at dealing with people, and still greeted Pu Yu with a smile: "Pu Yu is here too."

Pu Yu felt that these words were filled with emotions.

He was not like Shen Lingsi who could hide his emotions, or maybe he was just gloomy to begin with, so he just called out politely, "Senior."

Their school has clear hierarchy, and the sophomores usually need to respectfully address the seniors as "seniors", but Pu Yu rarely does so, because the seniors dare not embarrass him, and he rarely interacts with the seniors. He and Shen Lingsi are both well-known young masters in Upper East Province, and they are usually familiar with each other, so Pu Yu rarely addresses him like that.

At least today he could hear a little distance.

Qiao Qiao said: "I invited him over, he always eats alone."

They were all in the same class, and since Pu Yu wasn't opposed to it, Qiao Qiao was of course happy to take him along.

The good-looking and quiet academic master is actually naturally likable. He used to be afraid of Pu Yu, but now he is no longer afraid. Instead, he has become more calm and always wants to take care of the eldest master.

Shen Lingsi smiled, turned to Ning Song and said, "Let's go and see what you want to eat. It's my treat."

"I should be the one treating you," Ning Song said.

Shen Lingsi put his arm around Ning Song's shoulder and took him away.

Qiao Qiao said: "The president is really nice."

Pu Yu looked at the two people's intimate backs without saying a word.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, and there is no good without reason. Even though Shen Lingsi is usually very kind to others, it cannot be said that it is entirely due to his good character. Shen Lingsi, who likes power so much, does not only know how to do good things.

But there was no need for him to tell Qiao Qiao this.

He never criticizes others.

After a while, Shen Lingsi came back with Ning Song, carrying a tray.

Pu Yu just picked up the coffee that he had placed next to him, and Shen Lingsi sat down next to him.

Ning Song sat opposite Shen Lingsi.

When Ning Song and the others came back and mentioned the admission ticket, Pu Yu finally understood what Qiao Qiao meant.

Perhaps he should discuss this.

"The president gave me several tickets. Who among you wants to go?" Ning Song mainly asked Qiao Qiao, because he felt that Pu Yu would definitely not be interested in this kind of star-chasing behavior.

Qiao Qiao said: "Who is Elope?"

He only loves girl groups!

"It's a band, and quite popular." Ning Song said.

Qiao Qiao said, "But there is an IJ concert this Sunday, and I want you to go with me."

This time it was Ning Song's turn to ask, "Who is IJ?"

"IJ is so popular, Caiying shouldn't be too happy!" Qiao Qiao said.

Qiao Qiao's star-chasing is much crazier than his. Not only does he buy his idol's albums, he also occasionally helps his idol to get on the charts and control his haters. When his idol comes to hold a concert in Shanghai East, he not only goes to watch it himself, but also buys a bunch of tickets to give to his relatives and friends. One reason is to support his idol, and the other is to hope that his idol's charm can capture the people around him, so that he can feel more in the mood to chase after his idol and chat with him.

Now Fan Duoduo and Feng Xiang are both fans of IJ.

Seeing that Qiao Qiao didn't seem very interested, he looked at Pu Yu.

Pu Yu asked: "How do you know Ning Song likes elope?"

Ning Song asked Pu Yu: "How do you know I like elope?"

Qiao Qiao interrupted: "You are talking nonsense, would you go to see it if you didn't like it?"

Pu Yu: “You told me.”

Ning Song: “When?”

Pu Yu: "The first time you came to my house."

Shen Lingsi asked Ning Song with a smile: "Have you been to Pu Yu's house?"

Qiao Qiao, who was not in the situation, said: "Yes, he has been there several times."

Ning Song asked Pu Yu, "Do you want to go? Do you like elope?"

Pu Yu said: "'Ten Thousand Times' and 'Meteor' are pretty good."

Ning Song was surprised: "Isn't it? The song is nice and the lyrics are even better!!"

It's so rare for him to find a soulmate!

Shen Lingsi: "Pu Yu still listens to rock music."

"Occasionally." Pu Yu said as he took an admission ticket from Ning Song's hand and handed it to him, "Thank you, senior."

Shen Lingsi's mouth drooped and he leaned back in his chair.

If it was just his sixth sense before, tonight it was made clear face to face.

He found it difficult to laugh because he felt Pu Yu had many innate advantages.

His action seemed to be making things difficult for Pu Yu, leaving him feeling depressed and unable to come out.

Ning Song was very happy and turned to ask Qiao Qiao: "Are you going or not? There is one more ticket. If you don't go, I will ask Fan Duoduo."

Qiao Qiao pulled back: "Then I'll go with you. You have to accompany me to the concert tonight."

Ning Song said, "Sunday night? Do you need to check on us? What time will we be back from the concert?"

Qiao Qiao looked at Shen Lingsi: "Isn't this the president?"

Shen Lingsi said: "I clearly distinguish between public and private affairs."

"The concert ends at 10:30, and we will definitely be back before 12 o'clock," said Qiao Qiao.

In fact, he just wanted to be safe, and not have too many people stay out overnight, which would only result in some conduct points being deducted.

Sheng Yan often comes home late because he works outside.

Shen Lingsi said, "For Xiaosong's sake, I'll give you a chance. I'll go back and tell Zhao An and the others."

Hearing him call Xiaosong, Pu Yu felt that Shen Lingsi's intentions were obvious.

"I knew the president would take the best care of Aning. Let's go to Aning and toast to the president."

Ning Song smiled and raised his porridge: "I'll use porridge instead of wine. Thank you, President."

"Don't be stingy." Shen Lingsi smiled, "You don't have to call me the old president either."

"Thank you, senior." Ning Song said.

Shen Lingsi said, "I heard you call Pu Yu 'brother' all the time. Call me that too. Zhou Lu and the others call me that in private."

Ning Song smiled and said, "Okay, thank you Brother Shen."

Shen Lingsi smiled and didn't look at Pu Yu's expression again. He knew that he wouldn't be very friendly.

Whatever he wants.

Pu Yu should also know that although he usually smiles, he is not a pushover. No one in this world dares to order him to make wedding clothes, he only makes them for himself.

【Author’s words】

Shen Lingsi: At least we managed to win back a game.

Qiao Qiao: Although outside the situation, I did participate in the Shura Field.
