Chapter 45: The Double-Faced Classmate of the Academic Master
Christmas Day is a normal working day and students go to class as usual.
Unlike businesses that have put up Christmas signs in advance and launched holiday packages to create a festive atmosphere, the school does not have a holiday, so the only time at night is when there is a festive atmosphere similar to Christmas Eve yesterday.
Song Jiazhu saw Xu Lieyang when he came out of the bathroom.
Xu Lieyang waved to him, obviously having something to say to him.
Song Jiazhu raised his eyes slightly. He did not refuse. He followed Xu Lieyang down the stairs and talked at the corner of the stairs.
From here you can see the classmates upstairs and downstairs. It is a place where you can talk which is not too hidden but not easy to be overheard.
Song Jiazhu didn't know what Xu Lieyang wanted to ask him to do, but he was sure that Lin Zhi hadn't followed Xu Lieyang for more than half a month. He seemed to have really given up as he said. Song Jiazhu was very happy to see this result. He took the initiative to occupy Lin Zhi's few extracurricular time to prevent him from thinking about others.
He waited for Xu Lieyang to speak, but Xu Lieyang's attitude was also a little strange. He scratched his hair and seemed a little annoyed.
About half a minute later, Xu Lieyang said, "You don't believe what I told you last time?"
Xu Lieyang only needed to ask around to find out that Song Jiazhu and Lin Zhi had a good relationship. This made him so annoyed that he planned to remind Song Jiazhu again.
Xu Lieyang's attitude was strange, but Song Jiazhu keenly noticed the subtlety in it.
Song Jiazhu's eyes became a little colder. He looked at Xu Lieyang without nodding or shaking his head.
Xu Lieyang felt annoyed, forgetting that this person was a mute. How could they communicate with each other?
"It's really scary when he follows people. You'd better stay away from him."
Xu Lieyang clenched his fingers unconsciously because of his anxiety, and said this in an emphasizing manner.
Song Jiazhu could feel that this was different from the last well-intentioned reminder.
Regardless of whether Xu Lieyang intended to hurt Lin Zhi or had some secret thoughts that he himself was unaware of, Song Jiazhu did not like this sentence.
Did this person hope that Lin Zhi would get his comeuppance, or was he jealous because Lin Zhi followed someone else instead of him? Both possibilities made Song Jiazhu unhappy.
He was more worried about the latter. He was worried that Xu Lieyang would realize it, that Xu Lieyang would focus his attention on Lin Zhi, and that Lin Zhi would turn back.
Song Jiazhu opened his lips slightly, but unfortunately only a faint sound came out. The sound was unclear in the noisy night. Song Jiazhu was annoyed that he couldn't speak with full force. He took out the pen and paper he carried with him, wrote a line of words and handed it to Xu Lieyang.
There was a light in the stairwell, and Xu Lieyang could clearly see the line of words.
——This has nothing to do with you.
Song Jiazhu looked at Xu Lieyang with an indifferent expression.
Whether he was stalking someone or not, whatever he did, it has nothing to do with you now.
It is best for people who have already left the stage of history to disappear forever and never appear again.
Xu Lieyang's eyes widened slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "What if he has a perverted secret? He likes women's clothing. Would you still want to play with such a person?"
These are what Xu Lieyang said without thinking, and he felt a little regretful after he said it. He had not intended to publicize Lin Zhi's secret, but seeing Song Jiazhu like this, he didn't know why he felt particularly unhappy and said it out on impulse.
However, contrary to his expectations, the mute boy in front of him was not very surprised, and even showed a subtle emotion that Xu Lieyang didn't know how to interpret.
Song Jiazhu wrote another line on the paper and handed it to Xu Lieyang.
——I know, it's beautiful, isn't it? He will wear it for me to see. Similarly, this matter has nothing to do with you.
There is a certain amount of lies in what Song Jiazhu said, but it is not a complete lie. It is just a slight distortion of reality.
On Sunday afternoons when she went out with him, Lin Zhi would wear women's clothes.
Song Jiazhu deliberately emphasized that sentence, as well as the last sentence.
If possible, Song Jiazhu actually wanted to say it more bluntly: Don't think about looking back, stay away from him, he is mine now.
All of Lin Zhi’s affairs have nothing to do with you, Xu Lieyang. Don’t interfere too much. If you don’t like something that you think is bad, there will naturally be others who like it.
An association that has already ended does not need to be connected again.
Xu Lieyang was a little stunned, and suddenly understood Song Jiazhu's mood. It was a subtle mockery, which made Xu Lieyang feel a little embarrassed and annoyed.
"I'm just reminding you kindly, if you don't want to listen, forget it."
Xu Lieyang left, and Song Jiazhu slowly put the paper and pen back into his pocket.
At the door of Class 1, Lin Zhi walked into the classroom.
When 01 said that Song Jiazhu's coordinates had moved to the corner of the stairs and stopped, Lin Zhi knew that someone was looking for Song Jiazhu to talk to. This place was very strange, so Lin Zhi came out to check. After seeing Xu Lieyang coming over, 01 told him that Song Jiazhu's coordinates had moved, so Lin Zhi locked on the person who was talking to Song Jiazhu.
But what did Xu Lieyang want to say to Song Jiazhu? Did he remind Song Jiazhu knowing that they had been inseparable recently?
Lin Zhi sat on the chair, not feeling panicked.
Given how much Song Jiazhu cares about him now, he won't listen to anything Xu Lieyang says. The possibility of Song Jiazhu getting jealous is greater than the possibility of her staying away from him.
Because he had chosen to reveal the secret to Song Jiazhu a long time ago. Song Jiazhu had long known that he had liked Xu Lieyang and had been sad for him. She had also long known that he had followed her in women's clothing. These things had been clear from the beginning, and Xu Lieyang's words would no longer affect Song Jiazhu in the slightest.
However, there are other possibilities.
Lin Zhi's eyes sparkled as he recalled the look Xu Lieyang gave him last night.
Beauty is sometimes a privilege. Xu Lieyang was not in a particularly good mood when he saw him in the gym a long time ago. He probably couldn't say that he liked him, but judging from his behavior, he might care a little. Plus, some people have a strange characteristic of not wanting to have something but wanting to possess it, so he might feel a little indignant.
This kind of feeling is extremely superficial and childish, and Lin Zhi has no interest in it.
If it was the original owner standing here, he would probably be happy about Xu Lieyang's transformation. But if this body has always belonged to the original owner, then the original owner would not transfer his love at all. This would only cause Xu Lieyang to feel deeper disgust, thus turning it into a one-sided entanglement, and the situation would be extremely bad in the end.
Lin Zhi suppressed these thoughts because Song Jiazhu came back.
Song Jiazhu continued to write the exercises he had done before get out of class ended. He didn't seem to be affected at all, and his mood seemed to be better.
Lin Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly. It seemed that there was no need for him to comfort him. The little mute seemed to have gained the upper hand in this confrontation.
After evening study, Lin Zhi was grabbed by Song Jiazhu's clothes.
Song Jiazhu said in sign language: Come to my house, something happened.
Lin Zhi was a little curious, and several guesses flashed through her mind in an instant, and she followed Song Jiazhu home.
He hasn't walked this familiar road for a long time, but he sees Song Jiazhu's bedroom every day.
They walked all the way to Song Jiazhu's house. Song Jiazhu opened the door and took out slippers for Lin Zhi.
Song Jiazhu was wearing white plush slippers, and the same pair of black slippers on her feet, which were obviously a couple's style.
Lin Zhi saw through his little tricks and followed Song Jiazhu forward.
"What do we have to talk about in the bedroom?"
Watching Song Jiazhu push open the bedroom door, Lin Zhi said something jokingly and followed Song Jiazhu inside.
This was the last time he was invited into Song Jiazhu's bedroom in the true sense, which was different from the last time he came in when Song Jiazhu was sick.
Song Jiazhu's bedroom is smaller than his. Apart from a desk, a bed and a wardrobe, there is no other free space.
The bookcase above the desk is full of books. The room is very tidy and there is nothing else except the pot of Astragalus membranaceus next to the desk. Even in winter, this pot of succulent is blooming well.
Song Jiazhu took out a larger gift box from the drawer and placed it in Lin Zhi's hand.
He said: A Christmas present.
Lin Zhi did not hide the surprise in his eyes. The gift box in his hand was not heavy, so he opened it.
This is a khaki French retro velvet long skirt, lying quietly in a dark green box.
Lin Zhi was slightly startled: "Why did you give me this?"
Song Jiazhu carefully observed his expression and said in sign language: You looked at me a few more times last time, don’t you like it?
Lin Zhi then recalled the memory related to this skirt. It was last week when he and Song Jiazhu came out of the bookstore, went shopping in the mall and had something to eat, and passed by a store.
Lin Zhi just heard two customers in the store discussing the latest developments in the luxury goods business. Out of businessman's instinct, he subconsciously turned his head, and his sight was probably focused on the skirt.
In Song Jiazhu's opinion, that was probably a sign that he liked the skirt, which made Lin Zhi laugh.
If it weren't for the women's clothing setting, Song Jiazhu would definitely not have such a misunderstanding.
The style of this skirt is actually more mature, which is different from the sweet and tall style that the original owner has always liked.
"like."
Lin Zhi curled his lips, and then he suddenly seemed to remember something, and immediately picked up the skirt and looked at the tag.
He remembered that the clothes in this kind of store should not be cheap, at least not cheap for ordinary students.
"Twelve thousand? Song Jiazhu, are you crazy? Why did you buy such an expensive skirt? Can I return it if the tag is not cut off?"
This was Lin Zhi's subconscious reaction. He had been rich and poor, and he knew how hard it was to make money. He also knew that such a price was simply too much for Song Jiazhu to afford.
Money cannot measure feelings, but it can be one of the criteria for measurement. Lin Zhi suddenly felt that this affection was a little heavy, even more so than Mingyao's ring. He withdrew from the state of emotional weaver and hoped that Song Jiazhu would not be so extravagant. He did not want him to give something beyond his ability, as that would not make love interesting.
When Song Jiazhu saw Lin Zhi suddenly become angry, his heart was filled with bitterness caused by happiness. In order to avoid Lin Zhi's refusal to wear it, he hurriedly explained.
In addition to the tutoring fees that Lin Zhi had given him before, Song Jiazhu also had other channels to make money, such as participating in the preparation of examination papers and answering difficult questions on learning apps, plus the money he had won from previous competitions. Although he was not rich, he could fully afford the money for this skirt, and it was not difficult for him.
He was just accustomed to dealing with risks and he didn't have much desire for material things, so he was very frugal, but he was not actually so poor that he couldn't make a living.
Song Jiazhu looked at Lin Zhi expectantly and said in sign language: I want to see you wear it, you will look really good in it.
This expensive gift represents the boy's pure and sincere heart.
