☆, Chapter 6
Another wave of people came to watch Xi Mo. Qin Xinwei didn't know how long she had been laughing at these people, which made Xi Mo laugh too.
How come she didn't know in her previous life that everyone in school was talented? These teenagers really have too little homework.
"Hey, Momo, is it true that you two are together?"
Facing Qin Xinwei's inquiring gaze, Xi Mo answered honestly: "It's fake, we are not together."
"Ah?" Qin Xinwei withdrew her gaze regretfully, and thought of something else. Before she could speak, she was interrupted by someone.
Zhang Xue walked to their desks with red eyes, "Xi Mo, come out for a moment."
The people who were most affected by this gossip were the girls who liked Xiu Yangui. Apart from Zhang Xue, who showed the most obvious change, Xi Mo also noticed changes in the attitudes of several girls towards her, but it did not have much impact on her.
Xi Mo followed Zhang Xue to the balcony. Zhang Xue asked the same question as Qin Xinwei, and Xi Mo answered the same question as before, "No."
But Zhang Xue was relentless, "Then stay away from Xiu Yangui."
"Why."
A girl who cries in sadness because of unrequited love is pitiful, but this is not a reason for Xi Mo to agree to her ridiculous request.
"You can't be together. I'll tell the teacher."
"oh."
Xi Mo turned and left. It was useless to communicate with such a little girl. If Zhang Xue was sober, she should threaten Xiu Yangui instead of her.
The teachers had known about it for a long time. This matter escalated too quickly, but they didn't believe it. They had become numb to this kind of thing.
When Xiu Yangui first entered school, there were a lot of gossips like this about various pretty girls. Later, it was confirmed that they were all false and were just children playing around.
Lao Lin is an old man after all, and it was difficult for him to accept such things at first. However, such things happened so many times that Lao Lin became numb. As long as his grades did not drop, he would turn a blind eye and let him have fun.
By the way, the name "socialite" was first proposed by Lao Lin. The girls who had scandals with him were all famous beautiful girls in the school. Xiu Yangui was a person who could chat with anyone, so he deserved the name.
Xiu Yangui didn't mind being called that and accepted it happily. He didn't get angry when his classmates teased him in public. Lao Lin admired him for this and had a love-hate relationship with him.
However, he rarely intervened in the scandal with Xi Mo this time, because Xi Mo's grades dropped in this monthly exam, from being in the top five to being in the top fifty of the grade. On the contrary, Xiu Yangui made it into the top five of the grade this time.
Lao Lin adjusted his glasses and looked at the pair of classmates in front of him. It was all because of the teachers in the office who were always gossiping and chatting. Now looking at this pair of young classmates, he also felt that they were really a good match.
Pretty and elegant top students always fall in love with handsome and slightly ruffian male classmates.
"Hey, Mr. Xi, have you ever reflected on the reason for your declining grades?"
Xi Mo accepted the result well and thought she was lucky. She had not been exposed to high school knowledge for more than ten years. With just one month of review and the knowledge in her mind, she was able to reach grade 50. She was already very satisfied. Of course, she couldn't say this to Lao Lin.
"Yes, I've reflected on it. I was careless. I won't do it again next time, teacher."
"Yeah, not bad."
Lao Lin would not make things difficult for the little girl. He was always much friendlier towards girls than boys.
"What about you? Xiu Yan Gui."
"Me?" Xiu Yangui withdrew his gaze from Xi Mo and stood up straight.
"Yes, I have reflected on it. I was also careless. It's a shame that I got first place in my grade."
"Next time, first place in the grade will definitely be mine."
Lao Lin was already used to Xiu Yangui's jokes. "Be quiet, that's not what I'm asking."
"At the end of the semester, first place will definitely be mine."
Old Lin didn't want to pay any more attention to Xiu Yangui, and turned to look at Xi Mo gently again.
"I heard that you and Xiu Yan Guizai are dating? Did he influence you?"
"No, sir, it's my problem."
Xi Mo's well-behaved appearance makes people feel pity for her.
Every time students who fall in love prematurely come to the office to be reprimanded, they always refuse to admit it and always blame themselves for the mistakes.
Lao Lin looked at Xiu Yangui again as if he was a demon who only seduced people into corruption, and waved his hands at the two of them.
"Okay, try to improve next time, you guys can get out now."
After leaving the office, Xi Mo was pulled by Xiu Yangui to the end of the corridor. He looked a little nervous, as if he really thought it was his fault.
"Is it because of me?"
The boy who could handle the teacher's questions confidently and nonchalantly in the office was always so nervous and cautious when facing her.
Xi Mo still said the same thing: "It's not your fault."
Xiu Yangui's expression became increasingly serious. "So, what happened at home? That aunt..."
Xi Mo knew from his expression that he probably thought her grades had dropped because the hired housekeeper bullied her.
It’s no wonder that Xiu Yangui would think of this, because when Xi Mo was in the third grade of junior high school, she was admitted to the hospital because of the previous housekeeper.
Xi Yicheng and Ruan Wenwen supposedly love Xi Mo. Their way of loving her is to leave her to make a lot of money, rarely go home all year round, and just hire a housekeeper to take care of Xi Mo's daily life.
The aunt who had hurt Xi Mo before was very kind to Xi Mo at the beginning. Xi Mo liked her very much because this aunt looked a bit like Ruan Wenwen, and she took good care of her three meals a day. She was also very caring towards her and asked about her well-being, just like her biological mother.
But things changed later. When the aunt saw that Xi Mo seemed easy to control, she stopped praising her and began to ignore her. She wore Ruan Wenwen's clothes at home and used other people's cosmetics to dress herself up. She didn't cook and just gave Xi Mo a few dollars to eat, as if she was the mistress of the Xi family.
Xi Mo called her parents, but the person who answered the phone was their assistant. The assistant said she would tell them to call her back, but before she could receive a call from her parents, Xi Mo fell ill.
I had a fever all night and was so drowsy that I got up in the middle of the night to wipe my body and apply hot water to my forehead. The next day I got up and went to class. Even though I felt unwell, I didn't lose my temper.
Xi Mo never had a rebellious period and was always polite to others. After getting off the car, she told the driver not to wait for her after school because she wanted to go to the school infirmary.
When she arrived at the classroom, she was already feeling dizzy and was discovered by her classmates and sent to the hospital. Xi Yicheng and Ruan Wenwen received a call from the school and finally realized their neglect of their daughter. They fired the aunt and sued the housekeeping company, and took care of Xi Mo at home for a few days.
Those were the few days when Xi Mo felt happy, and most of her other happy moments were related to Xiu Yangui. However, by the third year of junior high school, Xiu Yangui had already cut off contact with her.
Looking back on these things now, it seems like a lifetime ago. Moreover, since that fever, she has lost her memory of some things. It is as if she has become a bystander, watching another little Ximo go through those things.
Seeing Xi Mo remained silent, Xiu Yangui thought he had guessed correctly, "Is it really because of that auntie? Damn, that woman's good reviews must have been faked!"
"Keep your voice down." Xi Mo comforted him, "It's not because of that auntie. This auntie is very nice."
Xiu Yangui carefully examined Xi Mo's face. She did not look malnourished or abused. "Really?"
"Yeah, she's fine."
"Also, what good reviews?"
"Well... that's it," Xiu Yangui stammered, "it's just the good review from the housekeeper."
"What else? Explain clearly."
Xi Mo didn't notice that they were getting more and more familiar with each other and their way of speaking was like a real couple.
The fearless Xiu Yangui stood in front of her with his head lowered, as obedient as a puppy.
"Just check that aunt's background, her family, and if she treats you badly, then... sue her."
Seeing Xiu Yangui like that, Xi Mo felt that if that aunt really treated her badly, what he would really do would be intimidation and kidnapping.
Just assume she believed it, "Got it."
"This matter has nothing to do with you or that aunt. It's just my problem."
"oh."
Xiu Yangui raised his head and then lowered it again, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
The two of them walked towards the classroom. Xiu Yangui took a few deep breaths and asked, "So, are you free during the National Day holiday?"
Is this a date? Is this guy with a strong sense of pride and arrogance like a peacock finally coming to his senses?
Xi Mo put away her scattered thoughts and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"Let's go to the library to study. I, Duan San, am more than capable of teaching you."
Haha, I almost got you into love.
Xiu Yangui regretted what he said as soon as he finished speaking. Every time in front of Xi Mo, he was very uncalm and anxious. How could he talk like that? He was so stupid and immature, too immature.
“I, I…”
"Can."
Xi Mo agreed and went to the classroom. Seeing Xiu Yangui still standing there in a daze, she asked, "Are you standing there to repent?"
"Ah? Here it comes."
Sure enough, he always made a fool of himself when facing Xi Mo.
After returning to the classroom, Xi Mo took out a pen and wrote down a date in her notebook. It was a day when she was in her senior year of high school in her previous life. What happened that day was related to her aunt at home now, and it had a great impact on Xi Mo.
At that time, Xiu Yangui dropped out of school and completely disappeared from her life. She hoped that this time, he could be with her.
The National Day holiday is approaching, and it is obvious that everyone is not focused on their books during the last class. Qin Xinwei also pulled Xi Mo away, and the two passed notes to each other.
Qin Xinwei: "Let's go to the movies tomorrow. There's a shojo manga adaptation coming out, and I want to see it. Okay? Let's go together."
Xi Mo: "The day after tomorrow is okay? I have something to do tomorrow."
Qin Xinwei: "Sure, then we have an appointment."
That was the end of the matter, but Qin Xinwei still wanted to chat and started telling Xi Mo some gossip. "Do you know Su Tiantian and Chen Xinyi?"
Xi Mo knew that they were the two most beautiful girls in the first year of high school. "I know."
"I heard that the two of them had a quarrel in the corridor because of Xiu Yan Gui."
Xi Mo looked at Qin Xinwei in surprise, and Qin Xinwei gave Xi Mo a look that said "yes, I know."
There is an office building between the first-year high school teaching building and the second-year high school teaching building, so what happened in the first-year high school can only be heard from others.
Qin Xinwei began to write furiously: "Xiu Yangui is truly a male traitor."
"After they started arguing, things got really tense. Aside from the first-year students who only cared about studying, the rest of the students split into two factions: the Su faction and the Chen faction. It was hilarious."
Indeed, this kind of thing is really funny, but in high school, if you don’t act like a middle school student, you will be wasting your youth.
Xi Mo: "How is it now?"
Qin Xinwei: "I heard that the two of them were making a bet about who could ask Xiu Yangui out during the National Day holiday, but after asking around, no guy was willing to give them Xiu Yangui's WeChat."
Xi Mo: "Why don't boys give it?"
Qin Xinwei: "I don't know, maybe Xiu Yangui won't let them give it to him."
"By the way, I heard they might come to block Xiu Yan Gui after school. It's going to be a good show to watch, haha."
Seeing that Xi Mo wasn't excited at all, Qin Xinwei took advantage of the teacher not looking at them and went over to Xi Mo and said, "Don't you notice that the class is very agitated right now? Not only because tomorrow is a holiday, but also because we're going to see two girls fighting for one boy!"
Xi Mo sighed, "Don't they study?"
"This..." Qin Xinwei was speechless for a moment. It was true. Xiu Yangui himself was already ranked third in his grade. If those two girls didn't work hard to improve themselves, how could they win the favor of their ideal people?
School is finally over. Tomorrow is a holiday and there is no evening self-study today. However, no one immediately spreads their wings and flies away like a bird. Instead, everyone looks excitedly towards the back of the classroom.
Xiu Yangui fell asleep in the last class and was still sleeping on his stomach, leaving everyone with only a head with thick brown hair.
Chen Nianyu and Zhou Beizhen were awake. They were packing their schoolbags normally, looking at their classmates in confusion. They looked at them, then at Xiu Yangui, and mouthed to them, "Looking for him?"
The students shook their heads like rattles. At this moment, the show that everyone had been looking forward to finally came outside the classroom, although the male protagonist was still sleeping.
Su Tiantian and Chen Xinyi walked to the door of Class 1 together, but there was no life-and-death fight as rumored.
I have to say, the two of them standing together are eye-catching. Who doesn’t like beautiful sisters, especially two of them?
Su Tiantian, as her name says, is indeed a sweet girl. She carries a pink schoolbag, the shirt under her school uniform has a doll collar, and she has cute twin ponytails with flower hairpins on them.
Compared with Su Tiantian, Chen Xinyi is much simpler. She doesn't dress up at all and just wears a pigtail. She looks very pure and harmless, like a Jiangnan beauty. However, if you look closely at the brand of her schoolbag, you can find that it is the same brand as Xiu Yangui's schoolbag.
Originally, among the freshmen of this year's high school, everyone's attention was focused only on Su Tiantian, because she was particularly high-profile and had a bold and unrestrained style.
As soon as she entered school, she posted a message on the school confession wall, saying that she came to Deyu High School just to get married, and then she posted photos openly, which won a lot of praise.
After school started, she joined the school dance club and made friends with various seniors. She was also cheerful and interesting, and her name quickly spread throughout all grades.
