The next day, Bai Ming got up early in the morning, went downstairs to buy some meat buns, and walked into the school while eating. However, he did not go to the classroom, but went to the staff dormitory.
It was still dark, with only a faint hint of paleness in the sky. The early spring breeze felt as cool as ice on my face.
Bai Ming stood in the cold wind, craning his neck to look up at the dormitory building. Every time a light came on, his eyes would twinkle, and his anticipation would grow stronger.
Teacher Zhuang has to work the night shift and can't go home at night, so he should sleep in this building.
It wasn't until after six that some people began to leave the building, but none of them were the one Bai Ming was expecting. He hid the four buns in his arms, covering them with his body heat, and paced back and forth at the door, without a trace of impatience on his face.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Zhuang Li walked out of the building slowly. He was wearing a luxurious and restrained suit. He looked more like a nobleman than a teacher.
Bai Ming's eyes lit up and he unconsciously smiled in surprise.
Before yesterday, his life had been an endless struggle; after today, his life was filled with hope. He strode forward, pulled out four hot buns from his arms, and spoke the words he had been brewing all morning: "Teacher Zhuang, I bought you breakfast."
Zhuang Li was naturally happy to see his lover so early in the morning. When he took the breakfast, he felt Bai Ming's cold fingertips and immediately realized that this person must have been standing by the roadside for a long time.
His heart ached slightly for a moment, but it was also dipped in a hint of sweetness. Zhuang Li suddenly felt a mixture of emotions.
But he didn't expose Bai Ming's little thoughts. He just broke open a bun, ate half of it himself, and stuffed the other half into Bai Ming's mouth, and reminded him: "We will meet at the cafeteria door every morning from now on. When you go out, send WeChat to arrange a time. Don't stand outside waiting like an idiot."
Bai Ming's eyes immediately shone with joy, and he answered in a resounding voice: "Okay!"
He felt from the bottom of his heart that it was wonderful to be alive. The sunset was wonderful, the sunrise was wonderful, even the biting cold wind was wonderful.
---
The two of them shared four buns as they walked, then one went to the office building and the other went to the teaching building.
This was the first time in Bai Ming's life that he was the first to walk into the classroom. He sat in his seat and smiled foolishly for a while. Seeing that the blackboard was a little dirty, he picked up a rag and wiped it. Seeing that the floor was a little dirty, he picked up a broom and swept it. He hummed a light song under his nose, like an industrious little bee.
After finishing his work, he still felt full of energy, so he took out his math book and flipped through it carefully.
Five minutes later, he fell asleep...
Half an hour later, he was awakened by a scream.
The classroom was filled with people at some point. Chen Liang in the front row jumped up from his chair again, his face pale, and looked around in panic.
"Did you hear anything?" he asked nervously.
"No, what's wrong with you?" The classmates around him looked at him in confusion.
Lu Ze, who was sitting next to him, had the same frightened expression on his face, and his bloodshot eyes revealed that he was on the verge of collapse.
Chen Liang looked at him, and he nodded stiffly.
As expected, only the two of them could hear Xu Yaya's voice. She chuckled softly in their ears, full of malice, like a cat that had caught a mouse, enjoying the pleasure of killing it. She followed them like a ghost, perhaps hovering over their heads, perhaps clinging to their backs, or perhaps even strangling their necks.
The two of them couldn't stop imagining things. Their rich imaginations made them feel cold all over and their hearts and livers were about to burst.
Bai Ming, who was sitting in the back row, kicked Chen Liang's stool and cursed impatiently, "What are you shaking for? You're almost shaking my desk apart!"
Chen Liang quickly moved his chair forward and did not argue with him.
In the past, even if he couldn't beat Bai Ming, Chen Liang would still say a few words. But now, he was as listless as an old man.
After morning self-study, the first class is math class.
Bai Ming, who was originally lying on the table bored, immediately raised his head and chest and sat up straight. When he saw Zhuang Li walk in, his pupils radiated bright light.
Zhuang Li looked at him and the corners of his lips curled up unconsciously.
The two of them had never exchanged words, yet their hearts were already filled with joy. This was their little, unspoken secret.
This class still explains the test paper.
Bai Ming picked up his pencil case and covered his terrible score. Although he didn't understand any of the questions, he still copied down the answers carefully.
Seeing him writing furiously, his deskmate Xiao Si's face was filled with horror, "Brother Ming, have you seen a ghost?"
Before Bai Ming could answer, Chen Liang, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly turned around and said in a hurried tone: "Have you also encountered a ghost?" His voice was loud and his movements were big, attracting the attention of the whole class.
Zhuang Li frowned at the podium, seeming very dissatisfied with the two people's gossip in class.
Bai Ming: "..." Fuck your mother! You've ruined my image as a good student!
Zhuang Li knocked on the blackboard: "Bai Ming, answer this question. ABCD, which one do you choose?"
Bai Ming glared at Chen Liang fiercely, then stood up, trying to figure out which answer was correct. He chose B, so B was eliminated, leaving A, C, and D...
After a brief thought, Bai Ming hesitated and said, "Choose C?"
"Why?" Zhuang Li raised his eyebrows.
Bai Ming couldn't give a reason, so he could only answer honestly: "Three long and one short, choose the short one."
Zhuang Li: "..."
The whole class burst into laughter.
Zhuang Li held his forehead with his hand, his tone very helpless: "Can't you make up a reason that sounds more reliable?"
Bai Ming scratched his red ears and said in a muffled voice: "I'm stupid. I tell the teacher whatever I think and can't make up a reason."
Zhuang Li lowered his head and covered the corners of his lips with his hand.
The other students burst into laughter again, but only Xu Jingjing understood Bai Ming's subtext.
I am completely transparent in front of you, so you can trust my sincerity. Is that what you mean? Is this the feeling Bai Ming really wants to express?
He likes Teacher Zhuang!
Xu Jingjing wore the same playful smile as her classmates, but her cold gaze was fixed on Zhuang Li. Then, she turned around and gave Bai Ming a deep look. Her pen tip scratched the test paper, leaving a dark mark.
"I appreciate your honesty, but next time, I hope you can tell me the correct solution process. Okay, sit down." Zhuang Li suppressed his smile and pressed his palms.
Bai Ming sat down with his ears red.
Little Four Eyes gave him a thumbs-up and murmured in approval, "Brother Ming, you managed to get away with this, that's amazing."
Bai Ming rolled his eyes.
Taking two math classes in a row is extremely painful for many students. The large amount of thinking will make them dizzy and they have to be on guard against being called to the podium by the teacher to do exercises from time to time.
But Bai Ming became more energetic the further he went, and his back straightened out. Even if he couldn't understand a word, just seeing Teacher Zhuang and hearing his voice was the best enjoyment for him.
His abnormal behavior caught the attention of Xiao Siyan and Xu Jingjing. During this class, Xu Jingjing looked back at him more often, her eyes darkening.
After class, the class monitor organized the students to go to the playground to do exercises.
In the past, Bai Ming would sleep on the table and would not respond to the monitor's call. But this time, he took the initiative to go to the playground, stood in the last row, and stretched his arms and legs lazily.
The little four-eyed boy stood in a row next to him and whispered, "Teacher Zhuang is so handsome! He has great taste in clothes. He's a breath of fresh air standing next to a group of teachers! Oh my god, he's so handsome, he's straight out of a comic book!"
"Where is Teacher Zhuang?" Bai Ming immediately stretched his neck.
"Over there, with the principal, coming over!" Xiao Si pointed forward.
Bai Ming ran over to his position and, sure enough, spotted Zhuang Li slowly approaching. Spots of light from the tree's shadows fell on him like raindrops, gently kissing his fair, transparent skin. His exceptionally handsome face seemed to glow.
Students from other classes burst into screams. A girl in the crowd could be heard asking, "Is that a teacher too? Oh my god, he's so handsome!"
Bai Ming frowned, feeling that his boss was unhappy, but his heart was also in turmoil. He immediately straightened his back and began to do the exercises in the most standard posture.
The little four-eyed guy who was too lazy to even lift his arms: "..."
Bai Ming, with his powerful, military-style boxing skills, stood out among the lazy classmates. Zhuang Li, walking from the other end of the track, immediately spotted him and couldn't help but smile.
Bai Ming looked at him eagerly across the crowd and laughed too.
Their silent exchange was interrupted by a burst of screams. Chen Liang and Lu Ze, for some reason, had gone mad again. They were now covering their ears and running through the crowd, shouting, "Xu Yaya, don't follow us! We're not trying to kill you. It's Xu Jingjing! Xu Jingjing is the one who ordered us to do all this. Go find her!"
It’s a pity that even if they cover their ears, those weird and evil sounds can still enter their brains.
They rolled and crawled in the crowd, crying and begging for mercy, muttering nonsense over and over again.
The school leaders immediately dispatched several strong teachers to capture the two men and send them to the infirmary.
All the students were discussing this. The scene of Xu Yaya jumping off the building to commit suicide was so tragic that no one could forget it. Meanwhile, the frantic Chen Liang and Lu Ze kept telling Xu Yaya to stop harming them and go find Xu Jingjing. Was there some hidden secret hidden in this?
Thinking of this, many people looked at Xu Jingjing with subtle expressions.
Bai Ming also frowned and looked at the woman.
He started working outside very early, came into contact with many people struggling at the bottom of society, witnessed all kinds of strange things, and naturally understood the dark side of society better.
Considering that Xu Yaya had been harassed by Chen Liang several times, and Xu Jingjing and Xu Yaya were not born of the same mother, there should be conflicts between them. Bai Ming had some vague guesses in his mind.
When he noticed that Xu Jingjing also turned around and looked at him, he immediately showed an expression of disgust.
Being looked at by him with such eyes, Xu Jingjing's face gradually turned pale. She didn't care what people around her said. After all, Xu Yaya had been burned to ashes. No one could do anything to her without evidence.
But she couldn't ignore Bai Ming's thoughts.
Realizing that she was disliked, she lowered her head in embarrassment, her nails digging into her palms and drawing blood.
