Haiyi Middle School.
There are still three days before the sports meet, and many projects are in full swing. Although students' main job is still to study, with so many students in the school, not everyone can resist the urge to join in the fun. They wander around the playground, looking at the various project facilities mainly built by the Student Union, clubs, and teachers.
Most of them are rather simple. After all, it's just a school. For an annual event, aside from the existing buildings, everything else, like sheds and railings, is dismantled afterward, so there's not much effort or money invested. Of these, the podium backdrop, obscured by red cloth, which hides its true form even during the principal's speech, is the most mysterious and captivating feature.
The students of Class 8 and Li Zishan who participated in the mural production wanted to keep it secret and work as low-key as possible. However, it was on the playground where the students of Haiyi Middle School passed by almost every day. As the project progressed, ladders, paints, and various tools were piled on the podium. It was really impossible to avoid people noticing.
All they can do is stop people.
However, the more they try to stop people, the more curious they become. So in the past few days, all kinds of rumors about the rostrum have been rampant. Some people even sneaked out of the dormitory in the middle of the night to find out what was going on at the rostrum, but were caught by the night patrol security guards and received a punishment.
Chen Tinghan couldn't help but sigh that there are still a lot of idle people in our Haiyi Middle School.
Today was Sunday morning, and there were not many students coming and going. His Shanshan was taking advantage of this rare quiet time to complete the final touches on the mural.
After a busy morning, Li Zishan walked out from behind the red cloth and saw Chen Tinghan who had been guarding her. She smiled and took advantage of the moment when he was looking at his phone to quietly approach him, wanting to play a prank on him. However, with a girlish mind, she stopped halfway and took two steps back.
Chen Tinghan suddenly laughed and said, "I thought you were going to cover my eyes and let me guess who you are."
Li Zishan was stunned for a moment, coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, and said, "I wouldn't do such a tacky thing."
Chen Tinghan stood up, moved the plastic folding chair under him, and walked towards the girl. However, every time he took a few steps, she took a few steps back. He asked speechlessly, "What do you mean? You won't let me get close."
The girl sniffed and said, "I won't let you come near me. I smell of sweat."
"Where's the smell of sweat?" Chen Tinghan ignored him and took advantage of his height and long legs to catch up with her. He forcibly held the girl's slightly sweaty hand, pressed her on the chair, took out the prepared towel, and helped her wipe the sweat off her forehead.
He said, "The alternation of cold and heat is the easiest way to catch a cold. Don't be a stubborn donkey and wipe off the sweat quickly."
At first, Li Zishan was a little resistant, but he was so tough that the girl couldn't break free and could only enjoy it passively.
"Can you finish it this morning?" Chen Tinghan asked as he wiped the sweat from her forehead and face.
"Of course I can." Li Zishan squinted his eyes, as if he were a kitten, and said, "The classmates' work is basically done. There are some details left, and I want to do it myself. Anyway, there are still two days left, so we should strive for perfection."
Chen Tinghan said with some distress: "Don't tire yourself out."
"Well, well..." Li Zishan suddenly squeezed out an ambiguous sound. She reached out to stop Chen Tinghan, preventing his presumptuous hand from continuing to move down, and said unhappily: "You hooligan, I'll wipe it myself."
His intention to take advantage of the situation was exposed, but as a reliable adult, he was known for his thick skin. Chen Tinghan said calmly, as if nothing had happened, "Oh, I'm sorry."
He then continued, "If you want, we can record the video during the unveiling and post it on the campus confession wall and the school union forum. After all, it's a piece of hard work, so we might as well let more people see it."
"Okay." Li Zishan's voice gradually became quieter as the delicate towel rubbed across her slender neck. After a short silence, she suddenly spoke again, "There's something I want to ask you."
"What's up?"
"That's right, squat down first."
Then Chen Tinghan squatted in front of her as she wished. The girl held her lover's face in her hands, and her wonderful almond eyes stared at Chen Tinghan for a long time, unwilling to let go. There seemed to be a light flowing in her eyes, which was both frank and embarrassing. The old man Chen Tinghan was so embarrassed that he couldn't help but look away.
This made Li Zishan realize that something was wrong, and he quickly relaxed and said awkwardly, "That's right, I want you to participate in this performance."
"Dancing or painting?" Chen Tinghan was a little surprised and said, "It's a bit too late for either one, right?"
"Neither. I just want you to show up with us during the unveiling of the mural. Just a simple set of moves will do. It doesn't take too long to practice."
"That's no problem. The whole class will be on camera anyway." Chen Tinghan said indifferently.
"That's good." The girl breathed a sigh of relief, as if she had accomplished a great mission. Then she said, "You said you would completely follow my instructions this time, right?"
"Of course." Chen Tinghan pinched her soft little hand, kissed the back of her hand, and said, "Whatever you say is what it is. I will never be perfunctory."
"Then I will decide your appearance at that time," said Li Zishan.
Chen Tinghan scratched his head and said, "This isn't a model runway show, why do you have to pose for it?"
The girl glared and said, "Don't ask."
"Okay, okay, I won't ask." Chen Tinghan grinned and held her hand tighter.
At this moment, a jeer came from behind Chen Tinghan. Someone teased the two of them, saying, "In broad daylight, in front of so many people, you're not even trying to avoid us?"
