"Dude, I'm too lazy to talk to you anymore."
Wen Mo yawned. He was clearly not getting enough sleep since he hadn't had a chance to catch up on sleep in the morning. After spending some time with Qin Zhou in the office, he prepared to go back to the classroom to rest.
"Where are you going?" Qin Zhou asked, looking up as he saw him get up as if to leave.
"Go back to class and sleep. You can write slowly." Wen Mo put his phone back in his pocket and walked out. When he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something and turned back with a smile: "It would be better to put that band-aid on. It will make Xiao Nan very happy."
"...Really?"
"I'm just giving you a suggestion; whether you put it on or not is up to you." Wen Mo shrugged and strode out.
Ultimately, it's up to the people involved to make a relationship. Outsiders should only intervene when things have reached a point of no return.
Let's talk about a few more serious things. Their relationship is much easier than yours, and there's nothing to worry about. No parents are talking behind your back about breaking your legs, and you don't need to worry about being watched by people at school.
When it comes to dating, just follow your heart. If you express your feelings, you'll naturally be able to be together.
I love watching these young, awkward boys and girls bickering, hehe.
About five minutes after he left, Qin Zhou put down his pen and paper and filled the originally blank paper with a full two thousand words. Although the handwriting was ugly, it was enough to get the job done.
He could leave once he finished writing, but Qin Zhou didn't want to go back to the classroom so soon.
I felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, but I couldn't quite put my finger on why. Normally, I would just laugh and joke around with Xiao Nan.
But now, she inexplicably turns her head away even if I just glance at her. How awful!
Reaching into his pocket, Qin Zhou pulled out a treasured band-aid from his school uniform pocket. Perhaps it had been there for too long, as it was already a little warm.
Even though we've known each other for almost three years, this is the first time I've ever seen Xiao Nan with that kind of expression.
Just thinking about that blushing pretty face, and how she secretly glanced at me, seemingly shy, yet forcing herself to come and bring me two bottles of water, made me realize...
Qin Zhou shook his head, trying to calm himself down. They were just giving him a band-aid; don't take it too seriously, buddy.
...But since it's already been given away, it shouldn't be a problem to stick it on, right?
...
"Oh, you're back?"
"Awesome, bro! He risked everything for a woman!"
"The most powerful episode ever!"
The moment Qin Zhou stepped through the door, the quiet atmosphere in the classroom erupted into a commotion.
Teasing is a childish culture unique to student days. Basically, every class has some particularly ambiguous relationships. If someone is called on to do a problem or something else at the same time, the kids below will make very strange noises.
for example:
"Oh, let's do some homework together!"
"That's amazing!"
"Two people together~~"
This was the first time Qin Zhou had encountered such a situation. There were some couples in his class who were secretly dating, and they had been teased about it before, but he never imagined that he would be the one being teased one day.
Normally, Qin Zhou, with his sleazy and carefree persona, would never be swayed by them. But today, he was completely blushing. He, who loves to talk, couldn't utter a single word and sat down next to Wen Mo with a sullen face.
The most fortunate thing right now is that Wen Mo is sitting between me and Xiao Nan, which allows us to calm down for a while.
Unlike Qin Zhou, who was furious, Hongyan Xiang Xiaonan had been secretly playing on her phone and reading a novel since she returned, but she had been stuck on the first page for almost ten minutes without turning a single page.
The girl sitting next to Xiang Xiaonan chuckled when she saw her expression, then lowered her head and whispered, "You care about him a lot, huh? You haven't even turned a page of the novel."
Xiang Xiaonan shuddered, her face filled with panic, though she felt like she was steaming despite it being winter.
"I...I...it's only right that I care about him...after all, he fought for me and got injured, what if something really happens..."
She spoke very quickly, finishing her sentence in no time, but her eyes kept glancing around erratically.
"Don't stutter."
"I...I don't stutter!"
After saying that, Xiang Xiaonan leaned back onto the table, her earlobes already bright red.
The moment she was knocked down, she saw an extremely fast figure rush into the court and, almost without hesitation, punch Zhang Xie in the face.
Later, when he felt a little better, he could see clearly that the person was Qin Zhou. However, unlike his usual carefree and playful manner, at that moment his face was filled with anger, as if he was about to breathe fire.
He's angry because of me.
To be honest, after spending a lot of time with Qin Zhou, you quickly realize that he is a person worth getting to know better. He never hides his feelings; he cries when he needs to cry and laughs when he needs to laugh. His natural comedic aura can brighten the mood of those around him as soon as they see him.
But this was also the first time Xiang Xiaonan had seen him angry. It was a bit scary, but once she thought that he was doing it for her sake... she felt very at ease.
After the students finished their commotion, they all went about their own business, and the quiet classroom returned to normal, with only the sounds of turning pages and whispering.
Amidst the hushed conversations of others, Xiang Xiaonan secretly raised her head, glancing to the other side.
Qin Zhou and Wen Mo were talking quietly, occasionally glancing out the window to see if any teachers were passing by, then closing the window and smiling with narrowed eyes.
The wound was covered by a band-aid of just the right size. His newly trimmed hairstyle was not as heavy as before. It matched his inherent funny temperament, giving him a feeling of sunshine on his body, as if he were draped in a golden veil.
"Ah..." Xiang Xiaonan exclaimed softly, quickly looking away, but after thinking for a while, she turned back to look at him again.
Qin Zhou waved in her direction, and when Xiao Nan looked over, he pointed to the band-aid on his face. With the morning sun shining behind him, he made a peace sign, suppressing his usual frivolity and revealing a slightly shy and grateful smile.
Xiang Xiaonan blushed deeply, her eyes trembling slightly involuntarily. She instinctively wanted to turn her face away, but almost as she thought about it, she forced herself to raise her head slowly, her eyes, filled with emotion, fixed on the smiling boy.
Then he stretched out his hands, made a megaphone shape, and placed them near his mouth, responding to the smile in a very soft voice.
Qin Zhou was somewhat stunned, trying hard to hear what Xiang Xiaonan was saying.
In the last row of the classroom, in a quiet room where no one knew, Qin Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly and saw the shape of her lips the moment she finished speaking.
It's very ordinary and very simple.
Xiang Xiaonan lowered her hands and responded with a sweet smile.
"Thank you."
