This was the first time that Shengxia sat at the same table with a boy after entering high school. Before that, in No. 2 Middle School, there were boys and girls sitting together in the class, and everyone liked to tease them all the time. Shengxia was very worried about this happening.

She paid special attention during breaks and found that there were only three or four tables in the class where men and women sat together.

But at the end of the day, there were no strange looks or weird teasing. Perhaps the class atmosphere is different and the students here don't care so much about such things.

She and Zhang Shu also got along well.

There was a bookcase taking up space between the two of them, so Zhang Shu usually faced outward with one leg stretched out towards the corridor.

Apart from being closer, there is not much difference from before, separated by an aisle.

But when she went out during class breaks, she had to walk behind Zhang Shu. She couldn't stop drinking a glass of water during a class and went to the toilet frequently, so she had to go out during almost every class break.

He almost always had his back to her.

So every time she went out, she had to make some noise or call him.

First time——

Shengxia: “Number of sheets.”

He turned and glanced at her.

Shengxia: "I want to go out for a while."

He pulled the chair forward.

Second Chapter——

Shengxia: "Zhang Shu, I'm going to go out for a while."

He didn't even turn his head and moved his chair forward.

Chapter 3

Shengxia: “Number of sheets, I…” I’ll go out for a while.

Before he finished speaking, he moved his chair forward.

In the end she didn't say much and just called my name.

Zhang Shu, Zhang Shu, Zhang Shu...

Hou Junqi couldn't stand the soft greetings he had heard all day. He went out to get water while Shengxia was still busy. He turned around and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Shu, can you handle this?"

Zhang Shu didn't even raise his head: "What?"

Hou Junqi whispered: "I think Shengxia is no worse than Chen Mengyao, what do you think?"

Zhang Shu stopped spinning his pen and raised his eyelids slightly, "If you like her, chase her."

Hou Junqi uttered a "hmm" sound, and seemed quite self-aware, "How could I? I must be talking about you."

Zhang Shu threw a draft book in Hou Junqi's face and said, "Mind your own business."

Compared to her previous seat near the door, Shengxia is very satisfied with her current seat.

Leaning against the window, I can listen to the cicadas chirping during the day and the rustling of camphor tree leaves at night.

It would be better if the outside was not a toilet corner. The broom and mop are a bit of an eyesore.

Just as I was thinking about it, the mop moved by itself...

It was pitch black outside, the rustling sound of leaves suddenly didn't seem so pleasant anymore, and the atmosphere became a bit gloomy.

Shengxia thought of the mop-head she saw that day. She felt a chill on her back. She opened the window and moved slightly inside. She accidentally bumped into Zhang Shu with her elbow.

Zhang Shu turned around and saw that the girl was trembling again, her body moving closer to him, as if hiding from something outside the window.

He looked up and saw the cat's head outside the window and the mop head used as a cover.

Zhang Shu smiled, stretched out his long arm over Shengxia, and prepared to open the window.

Shengxia quickly grabbed the arm in front of her and said, "Don't open the window, there's something dirty..."

Zhang Shu: …

Hou Junqi turned around after hearing the voice and said: ...

Dirt outside the window Han Xiao: ...

When Zhang Shu leaned over to open the window, the distance between them had already shrunk a little. At this time, she was still holding his arm, her head obediently resting in front of his chest, her hair brushing against his chin...

A burst of sweet fragrance entered his nose, and Zhang Shu's Adam's apple rolled. Without moving his forearm, he bent his wrist and pushed with his fingers, opening the window a little wider, and announced lightly: "It's open."

Then he withdrew his arm indifferently.

Han Xiao mechanically imitated the AI: "Beauty, excuse me, I'm looking for Zhang Shu. I just took a shower, so I should be clean."

Hou Junqi rolled on the table, holding his stomach, "I can't laugh anymore!"

Shengxia turned her head and saw a head sticking out from behind the mop, with small eyes and big glasses. Although he was not handsome, he was indeed a person.

Not A Piao.

She glanced at the teacher outside the corridor and realized that they were using a mop to prevent the teacher.

embarrassment.

Excuse me.

Shameful.

Shengxia felt her cheeks and hands were hot. She slowly put down her hands that were still hanging in the air and lowered her head to continue working on the questions. She was almost crawling on the table to make space for the people outside the window and Zhang Shuteng so as not to be an eyesore.

I didn't read the questions, but I listened to the whole conversation.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Shu said, "Can't you come after class?"

Han Xiao: "I'm sorry, did I scare your deskmate?"

Zhang Shu: “What do you think?”

"Oh, I'm so sorry," Han Xiao didn't dare to laugh in front of his brother, so he held it back and said seriously, "Brother Shu, how about we go out and play around here on Thursday? Instead of going to Milk, we can just play cards at the North Gate?"

Zhang Shu: "What benefit did Zhou Yingxiang bring to you that you work so hard for him?"

"Really not! Why should I care about him? We have to live our own lives. Isn't it because Brother Hou said something about you having something on hand..." Han Xiao changed the subject out of consideration for others, "You've been in a bad mood recently, so just play and relax. Besides, whoever plays cards with you is just giving away money, right? You're cheating with your cards..."

Zhang Shu looked at Hou Junqi, who raised his hands in surrender. "It's unfair. I didn't say that. But Ah Shu, go ahead. It's a waste of money. If you don't make money, you'll lose money."

"What's more..." Hou Junqi whispered, "Chen Mengyao said she would shuffle the cards for us."

Zhang Shu said, "Let's talk about it later."

Not refusing meant agreeing. Han Xiao and Hou Junqi looked at each other and left happily.

The mop head fell to the ground with a dull thud.

Shengxia knew that the people outside had left.

She straightened her back slowly and continued to work on her homework as if nothing had happened. She sat upright, her eyes not looking to the side, but her body leaned towards the window again and again without leaving any trace.

Zhang Shu looked at the girl who was moving calmly, as if she wanted to pass through the wall. He had no idea what was going on in her mind and was too lazy to guess.

Many images popped up in Shengxia's mind.

Those magazine CDs in his schoolbag...

He took the money from the stationery store owner...

He was invincible at the gambling table with his cards in hand...

There was a school beauty sitting next to him, shuffling the cards for him...

…

Her desk mate is a bad academic bully who "holds multiple jobs".

What a good society!

Since the first day of morning reading, Shengxia has learned from his mistakes and has been arriving in the classroom as early as 6:30.

There were already quite a few people sitting in the classroom.

She did not go straight to her seat, but turned to Xin Xiaohe's seat at the second table after entering the door and handed her a cup, "Xiaohe, brown sugar ginger tea, for you."

Xin Xiaohe raised her eyes listlessly, and when she heard that, her eyes were filled with gratitude, "Xia Xia, how did you know that I was having my period..."

Shengxia smiled and didn't answer her silly question. She whispered, "I made it this morning and it's still hot. I always drink it two days in advance and it won't hurt. Is your cycle a full month?"

Xin Xiaohe said: "It's not particularly punctual, probably around 28 or 29 days."

Shengxia: “How many days each time?”

Xin Xiaohe: “Five days.”

"Then I almost know," Shengxia said, "It's not convenient for you to cook in the dormitory. I will remember this date and cook for you two days in advance."

"No need, Xia Xia. Sorry to trouble you. A thermos is also very useful."

"It's not a problem. I cooked it in the health pot."

Xin Xiaohe was really about to burst into tears this time, "Wuwuwu fairy, Zhang Shu is really not worthy of you..."

Shengxia: “Ah?”

"It's okay..." Xin Xiaohe shook Shengxia's arm, "Let this week pass quickly. You'll be my deskmate again next week!"

Shengxia said: "I hope so too!"

Xin Xiaohe said: "If Zhang Shu bullies you, call me!"

Shengxia smiled, her voice sweet, "Okay!"

"Blast his dog head!"

"Um!"

The two girls were talking to themselves. Lu Youze was sitting behind Xin Xiaohe. She had been concentrating on memorizing words, but now she couldn't help but smile slightly.

Do they think they are quiet?

He looked up and found Shengxia had left. His eyes followed her figure unconsciously until she sat down, then he slowly withdrew his eyes.

In the first composition class of the semester, the whole class was filled with wailing.

No one wants to write an essay, let alone revise their deskmate's essay.

This is Fu Jie’s teaching habit. In a composition class, students write in the first period, □ in the second period, and then explain. Finally, the composition is handed in, and Fu Jie will revise both the composition and the comments.

It’s not okay to write rubbish, and it’s not okay to give rubbish reviews.

The material composition mentions that many famous people have created great achievements in the tide of the times. The key words are nothing more than "era" and "hero".

The material is of normal difficulty and it is not a composition with a given topic, so there is a lot of room for creativity.

This kind of current policy material is not difficult to write. It does not require too much subtle emotions, but is more of a high-level theory. It is easy to write an argumentative essay. Shengxia started writing after a little thought.

Zhang Shu remembered that Wang Wei had praised her composition to the heavens, so after reading the material and writing a title, he glanced at her paper.

Good guys, the beginning has been written!

Putting aside other things, her handwriting is really beautiful. Unlike her gentle and shy appearance, her handwriting is vigorous and powerful, with the ink penetrating through the paper, and the overall style is very imposing.

Title: "There is no era of heroes, only heroes in the era"

Zhang Shu looked at his paper again.

Title: The Age of Heroes

…

If she hadn't written it first, he would have suspected that she was deliberately sabotaging it.

The horoscopes are not compatible, and you will see ghosts.

It takes forty minutes to finish an essay, and not many people can finish it. After class, many people are still writing furiously. Shengxia checked the papers, folded the essay papers, and went out to get some water.

This time, just as she picked up the water cup and before she opened her mouth, Zhang Shu's chair had already moved forward very proactively.

Shengxia was stunned for a moment, passed by him and said "thank you".

As soon as she stepped out of the door, Hou Junqi came back and took away her composition paper. As soon as he opened it, he sighed: "Fuck, this is printed... Why does this title look so philosophical? 'The wheel of history rolls forward, the tide of the times surges', this opening... Ah Shu, have you read it? It's awesome, let Lu Youze step down and let Xian take over?"

Zhang Shu: "Is it really that good?"

"Very good!" Hou Junqi, who didn't know anything about writing, said, "It's awesome anyway."

Zhang Shu: “Oh.”

In the second class, if you can't finish writing, it will be treated as unfinished. If you can't finish the essay in 55 minutes, there is basically no hope of getting a high score.

Shengxia was stunned for two seconds when she received Zhang Shu's composition.

"The Age of Heroes", well... it's not off topic, the key words are captured correctly, but the idea is not high.

This idea is inconsistent with the materialist view of history hidden in the material.

His writing is mediocre, and the examples he cites are only fair and a bit rehashed, like they were picked up from "Junior and Senior High School Composition Materials", without much freshness. However, his writing is well-structured, and the five paragraphs and three points are very safe, but it also means that it is difficult to get a high score.

Shengxia wrote his own comments: The paper is neat, the logic is self-consistent, the citations are appropriate, and it would be more timely if the arguments were strengthened.

After writing it, she repeated it silently.

It should be written in a tactful and pertinent way, right?

She shifted her gaze slightly towards him. He had just finished reading and was writing a comment.

With a stroke of the pen, he left four words: unclear and powerful.

midsummer:……
