Chapter 5 What's the Future of Falling in Love with You?
At 5:30 in the morning, Yu Zhao woke up before the alarm clock rang. He had a light sleep and could only manage three or four hours.
He was always afraid of sudden death.
That was not impossible. He quickly got up, washed, and tiptoed out of the living room before six o'clock. When he reached the entrance, a sharp look in his eyes made his back shiver.
Yu Zhao turned around impatiently. He was wearing a school uniform, with a straight back, long and slender legs, a shoulder bag on his back, and a look of disgust in his eyes.
There was no longer any talk of family affection between him and the woman in front of him.
"It's still the same as always. No matter you borrow money or work for others, bring me a cigarette, otherwise you can't enter this house today." The woman said coldly.
Yu Zhao cursed and said "you're crazy" and left.
He admitted that he was rude and had no manners, but he was unable to show basic etiquette and attitude.
Because the woman matured too early, his childhood was destroyed by her, and he was often constrained by a set of words, saying that she had put in a lot of effort to give birth to him, and that she had to do everything to provide him with food, drink and entertainment.
It was early August and the weather was foggy. It took him at least half an hour to get from home to school. He passed by the breakfast shop at the school gate.
When he saw the recruitment notice for part-time workers next to the breakfast shop, he hesitated. He couldn't stand firmly in the No. 1 Middle School in the city. He was just an ordinary student.
He asked, "Boss, are you still short of staff?"
The boss shook his head and said, "You are still a student. I can't employ you carelessly."
Yu Zhao said, "I'm a student, but I can do anything. You want part-time workers, right? If you use me and I don't think it's okay, you can fire me at any time."
The boss clicked his tongue and said, "Okay, come right after class at 12 noon today. You can't be late for even a minute."
"Okay, thank you."
Yu Zhao took a bun and went into the school.
As soon as he entered the school, he met a familiar figure. In an instant, Yu Zhao looked towards the figure, but the fog was too thick and he couldn't see clearly.
It really looks like Haozi.
"What are you looking at?" Xia Qiu patted his shoulder from behind, "You look so engrossed."
Yu Zhao walked forward as if nothing had happened, and at the same time took the milk from Xia Qiu. Yu Zhao wanted to pay, but he suddenly thought of something, and he said, "I'll owe you the money first."
"It's your treat. The money you gave me is not even enough to buy half a bottle." Xia Qiu said.
Yu Zhao paused. He weighed the milk and had no choice but to keep going.
"Hey, there's a coming-of-age ceremony coming up soon. Do you plan to invite your mother to come?" Xia Qiu asked as they walked.
"I have no idea." Yu Zhao's steps became faster and faster.
After searching the principal's office, Haozi suddenly ran into Yu Zhao and the boy beside him, and he hurried out of the school.
The boy sitting outside the school was wearing a black hat and biting a straw. There were few students in the morning, but the boy's half face could not be covered, and the students passing by thought he was a... gangster.
Haozi ran to Shen Wuhuai in three steps, "Hey, brother Huai, which one do you want to hear first, good news or bad news?"
"Bad news." Shen Wuhuai was bored.
"No, you have to hear the good news first." Haozi sat down and took a big sip of soy milk.
Shen Wuhuai raised his hand and slapped Haozi on the forehead with a very bad attitude, "Speak."
Haozi immediately shrank his head, "The good news is that the principal hasn't come to work yet, but it is true that he promised to run a school for us yesterday. Secondly, there are few day students in this school, and most of them are boarders."
“…”
Shen Wuhuai raised his head and glanced at him.
Haozi curled his lips: "The bad news is that I seemed to have seen Yu Zhao just now."
Shen Wuhuai's expression gradually softened.
"But he was close to someone else, a man, very tall, and seemed quite handsome. He also gave Yu Zhao something."
Shen Wuhuai's expression gradually became violent.
This time he no longer tolerated it and slapped Haozi again, "Do you really think this face of mine is from a Peking Opera actor?"
Haozi smiled and said, "I just want you to feel a sense of crisis."
Yu Zhao began to study alone in the classroom. He closed his eyes and memorized the articles. To him, these articles were already well-known, thanks to that boring month in the countryside.
No one disturbed him from studying, and he felt really relaxed and happy.
Well, except Shen Wuhuai.
Wait, why did I think of him? Wasn’t he reciting the text?
Shit, really.
After Yu Zhao finished reciting the book, many people came into the classroom one after another.
Among them are some day students. They said that a gangster came to the outside of the school today. He was covered in black and was very scary. Even if Xia Qiu went there, he might not be frightened.
Wu Shi walked into the classroom and was immediately irritated by the chattering classmates. She shouted at them, "Hurry up and study. How many points can you get in English? How can you get 140 points if you keep talking here? Huh?!"
The whole class fell silent.
Yu Zhao lowered his head and continued to look at his own.
Wu Shi continued, "If any of you were as serious as Yu Zhao, would you be in the middle class?!"
Yu Zhao, who was inexplicably named, slowly raised his head and gave a death smile. Didn’t Wu Shi know that the first bird to be exposed gets shot down... Yu Zhao felt like he had died thirty times.
Wu Shi coughed twice and said, "Since I have to process the transfer student's application today, I will ask the teacher to substitute for me in the two English classes this morning."
Wu Shiyi left.
The classroom was unnaturally quiet. Everyone was still brooding over those words. Yu Zhao could only endure the stares of sixty eyes.
However, this process only lasted about half a minute. The students then went about their own business. Some started playing Landlord, while others started fortune-telling.
Yu Zhao persisted for an entire class and sorted out all the lessons Wu Shi was going to talk about and the ideas for the article. Ten minutes before the class ended, Yu Zhao wanted to take a nap.
He lay on the desk, and the long-lost laziness made him truly feel the life of a senior year in high school.
After a short time, Yu Zhao had a dream. He was still in his unclear childhood and dreamed of a strange man and that woman.
Yu Zhao's eyes seemed to be following the strange man.
He had never seen him in all these years, so he said he had never met his father.
"Everyone wake up!" Wu Shi shouted to wake up the whole class, "I told you to sleep here, study, study! Do you understand?!"
Yu Zhao stood up and checked the time. Then Wu Shi shouted again, "Everyone in the class is asleep. How can we expect you to get into Peking University or Tsinghua University in the college entrance examination?"
The classmates thought that Wu Shi would not be back until after two classes, but unexpectedly she came back early.
"Teacher Yu Zhao has fallen asleep too." Suddenly a classmate cue Yu Zhao.
Yu Zhao smiled and said nothing, but his eyes seemed to want to stab these classmates whom he didn't even know.
Wu Shi was speechless. "Are you Yu Zhao? Why are you comparing yourself to others?"
Yu Zhao raised his eyes and looked at Wu Shi, feeling that the murderous intent in the other party was stronger than his. He immediately shifted his gaze, and suddenly, a young man with a smug smile appeared in his sight.
He looked out the window and saw Shen Wuhuai with his hands clasped over his chest, wearing the same uniform as him, with a smile on his face.
Yu Zhao was stunned for a long time. He called out the three words "Shen Wuhuai" silently and doubtfully. Why was Shen Wuhuai here? Didn't this guy see the ugly behavior just now?
Damn, it was a bad start.
Shen Wuhuai seemed to know lip reading. His thin lips moved slightly but he didn't say anything. However, Yu Zhao knew what he was saying: I'm here.
Wu Shi sighed, "Except for Yu Zhao, who is a transfer student, there will be another transfer student next. Then our class will have 32 people. We must all work together to get good grades."
"Student Shen, come in."
Yu Zhao witnessed Shen Wuhuai putting one hand in his pocket and walking towards the podium on his knees. He straightened his back and walked straight towards Yu Zhao.
The latter didn't react for a long time. He looked at Shen Wuhuai's uniform and fell into deep thought.
Shen Wuhuai sat down in the empty seat next to him.
"Why are you here?" Yu Zhao stared at Wu Shi's writing on the blackboard and couldn't help but ask Shen Wuhuai.
"Are you surprised?" Shen Wuhuai bit a pen and practiced his bite force. "Yu Zhao, do you want to get rid of me?"
?
Yu Zhao tilted his head, "What do you mean?"
"You...you..." Shen Wuhuai was so angry that he couldn't speak. In stark contrast to his pretentious demeanor just now, he whispered in grievance, "I gave you my contact information, but you left it in that shabby house in the blink of an eye. Haozi said that you were close to someone else, who is tall, rich and handsome. If you think it's fun to play with my feelings, I will really be angry."
Yu Zhao lowered his head and wrote, "Did we talk?"
"You said you would consider it, but you haven't considered it yet, okay?" Shen Wuhuai asked.
At this time, Wu Shi called on people to read English articles and happened to call on Yu Zhao.
Yu Zhao stood up and read the article in its entirety.
"Well, it's good, and the pronunciation is standard. But there are a few mistakes. If you want to correct them, come and see the teacher after class."
Yu Zhao nodded. As soon as he sat down, Shen Wuhuai grabbed his uniform and said, "Speak up. Have you considered it? Is it because you are close to someone else that you have completely forgotten about me after only two days of not seeing each other?"
"No, you're so noisy. Let's talk after class."
Shen Wuhuai shut up.
As soon as the class was over, Yu Zhao rushed into the teacher's office.
Shen Wuhuai was surrounded by a bunch of classmates who asked him all kinds of questions. Haozi, who came to the middle class to find Shen Wuhuai, thought that his boss was being bullied and yelled at everyone to get out.
Shen Wuhuai was surrounded by cold air. As soon as he raised his hand, Haozi stopped talking. Those classmates were afraid that Haozi would hit them, so they quickly returned to their seats.
"Brother Huai, my friends and I haven't attended class for a long time. Can you let us go back to Wanjia Village?" Haozi was really scared. A class lasted for 45 minutes and he was almost suffering from ADHD.
Shen Wuhuai sneered, "If anyone dares to leave, I will break his legs." Of course it was fake. In addition to intimidating Haozi, he also wanted to establish his personality in front of this group of classmates.
"Brother Huai...what's wrong with you?" changed.
Before Haozi finished speaking, the squad leader called Shen Wuhuai out, saying that the class teacher Wu Shi was looking for him.
Shen Wuhuai entered the office and Yu Zhao was still there.
Wu Shi heard some rumors in the class, and she said angrily: "Shen Wuhuai, you have to behave yourself when you come to our class. I know it's not your intention to let the students from the poor class come to you, but you can't disrupt the order after class, do you understand?"
"oh."
Shen Wuhuai responded calmly, and then he bowed: "Aime Sosou Sarui kicks the bird."
Yu Zhao smiled at the mismatched English. Wu Shi suppressed his anger and said, "Go back, go back with Yu Zhao."
Yu Zhao walked out of the office with him.
"Yu Zhao, can you please think about it again?" Shen Wuhuai pulled the corner of Yu Zhao's clothes and shook it back and forth.
Yu Zhao looked up at him. There was a slight height difference between them.
Yu Zhao said, "That's all you can do."
"Yes, I just want to fall in love with you."
