Chapter 14 Winning the Prize "Take the milk and grow taller."...
The final destination of the paper was naturally to turn into a ball and end up in the trash can.
Without any learning experience to refer to, Bo Xia simply gave up and started making a study plan. Zhou Suiye beside her was still saying that these were all similar and she could use them as a reference.
Bo Xia ignored him. Zhou Suiye sat down, propping his chin with one hand and said, "Do you believe that if Jin Yunyan really spoke about his learning experience on stage, there would be no one to refer to?"
At the end he added: "He's a pervert."
The words weren't meant to be disparaging, but Bo Xia had a strong impression of Jin Yunyan, not to mention that he had comforted her not long ago. So instead of agreeing, Bo Xia said, "I don't think so. He's just too lazy to write. If he were willing to write seriously, it would definitely help a lot of people."
Zhou Suiye: "..."
Is Jin Yunyan her deskmate or am I her deskmate?
Zhou Suiye felt a little jealous: "If he wanted to help others, would he still come to me? When I went to his house a few days ago, I happened to see him working on the questions. I couldn't understand a single word of what he said."
Bo Xia caught the key words and looked at him with bright eyes: "Did you go to his house?"
"Yeah, I do my homework and play games." He leaned back and couldn't help but complain, "It's so particular. You can't sit on his bed with your trousers on..."
She listened carefully to every word, trying to use those details to piece together more things, as if this would bring her closer to that person.
Jin Yunyan must have mysophobia. Yes, he looks so clean on weekdays, unlike other rough boys.
Bo Xia asked Zhou Suiye what happened next. Zhou Suiye smiled and said, "Then I took off my pants."
“…”
She was amused and speechless, and asked him if he hadn't been kicked out by Jin Yunyan. Zhou Suiye raised the corner of his lips: "Can he kick me out? I'm one of his few good friends."
Although Jin Yunyan is a gifted child and seems to be liked by teachers and classmates, many boys in the class are jealous of him and think he is too pretentious. In addition, Jin Yunyan himself has a cold personality, so it is difficult for ordinary people to get really close to him.
Bo Xia was a little confused, but wasn't Jin Yunyan quite popular?
Before she could ask, Zhou Suiye looked up and saw Jin Yunyan, then stood up and went to chat with him.
During those days, both teachers and students were a little tired from repeatedly reviewing the test papers and sorting out the wrong questions.
Bo Xia looked through her collection of wrong questions and felt that she still didn't understand the physics part thoroughly enough. She looked at the monitor who was practicing shooting without any objects in the aisle and said, "Zhou Suiye, can you help me with this problem?"
Zhou Suiye was almost suffocating these past two days. Ever since he decided not to give Bo Xia any illusions, he had been controlling the number of times he chatted with her. Who knew that Bo Xia rarely spoke to him either.
Now, at last, she took the initiative to approach him, and it was about something like asking a question, which clearly showed her affirmation of his ability.
He laughed and walked over with a bit of arrogance: "Which question? Let me see."
“This one.”
"Hmm..." Zhou Suiye sat down, took her red pen and explained it to her carefully, "Do you understand?"
Bo Xia nodded: "Thank you."
Thinking about the day of changing seats soon, Zhou Suiye couldn't help but be narcissistic: "After the seat change tomorrow, you may lose me, your excellent deskmate. Are you sad?"
That delicate face was very close to her. Bo Xia stepped back and smiled reluctantly: "Yeah, very sad."
The perfunctory look was almost written on his face.
Unfortunately, Zhou Suiye didn't realize it and was immersed in his own excellence.
Bo Xia had no time to care. She held a pen in her hand and looked at the person sleeping on the table in front of her. From her angle, she could only see the smooth curve of his profile.
With a slight bitterness in her heart, she thought that if she changed seats soon, wouldn't the distance between them and him be further away?
At that time, she wished she could have the chance to sit at the same table with him.
I could tilt my head casually during nap time to observe that face closely, I could accidentally touch his arm, I could get closer to him under the pretext of asking questions.
But now, such a dream is becoming increasingly difficult to achieve.
Bo Xia rested his chin on the table, like a deflated balloon.
But after a few seconds, she thought of Jin Yunyan and Wen Xin's words of encouragement and cheered herself up. After all, there was still so much time in the future. Even if she only moved a little bit each time, one day she would stand by his side.
Her eyes became more determined.
"Admit it, you still can't bear to leave me." Zhou Suiye's narcissism has reached its peak, and he is very satisfied with her performance.
Bo Xia responded to his words, but he was looking at another person. After a while, he nodded seriously: "Yeah."
Can't bear to.
Sometimes Bo Xia really wishes time could go by more slowly, but whether she is distracted or working on a test paper seriously, time seems to pass very quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was Tuesday again. Bo Xia no longer had the anticipation she had last time. She knew that many people wanted to sit with Jin Yunyan, and it would never be her turn.
But it's not entirely without good things happening.
This time, after changing seats, Wen Xin was sitting across the aisle from her, and Meng Roujin became her new deskmate. She couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you sit with Jin Yunyan?"
Meng Roujin was a little disgusted: "That Zhou Suiye follows Jin Yunyan like a little tail, and he will be sitting next to me and making so much noise later."
Bo Xia couldn't help but look in Zhou Suiye's direction and laughed.
Just then, her gaze met Zhou Suiye's. The latter was a little at a loss when he saw her curved eyebrows. Could it be that she really fell in love with him?
It is said on the Internet that if a girl looks at you and smiles while chatting with her friends, you are most likely the one she likes.
He repeated this to Jin Yunyan, and the feedback he got was——
"Maybe you're funnier."
Zhou Suiye: "..." This is a blood brother.
After changing seats, the students on duty stayed behind to do the general cleaning. Originally, Bo Xia was responsible for mopping the floor and other trivial matters. The classmate sitting behind her said embarrassedly that his hands were not feeling well today and asked to switch with her and let her clean the windows.
She thought about it and agreed. She didn't think cleaning windows was any different from other jobs. They were all equally tiring.
Seeing her nod, Zhou Zhiyong curled the corners of his lips, and his smile was inexplicably a little naughty.
Bo Xia was standing on the table wiping the windows. When she was about to get down to wash the rag after wiping them once, Zhou Zhiyong came over and touched her chair, his action obviously intentional.
She almost fell because she didn't stand firmly, and her hand hit the table, causing severe pain. If she hadn't caught herself, she would have fallen hard.
Zhou Zhiyong was just playing a prank on her on purpose, and he didn't think it would have any serious consequences. Besides, she didn't fall down. "I'm sorry."
She frowned, her dissatisfaction with him about to overflow, but she opened her lips but couldn't express it. Her heart, which always gave in, was wavering desperately, asking her if she should just forget it.
“…”
Wen Xin, who had gone to fetch water, came in and saw this scene. She quickly put down the bucket and came over: "Zhou Zhiyong, what are you doing? You feel uncomfortable if you don't bully girls for a day?"
The boys in their class would sit in the back row of the classroom blocking the door every day with nothing to do. They would whistle and tease any pretty female classmate they saw, and they would also like to play pranks when they had nothing to do.
She didn't even need to ask what happened before sentencing the man.
The boy found it extremely boring: "I was just joking with her. Do you want to ask Bo Xia if she minds?"
He looked arrogantly at the quiet and introverted girl in front of him, certain that she would not cause him any trouble.
Wen Xin grabbed her arm and reminded her to be brave: "Xia Xia, if you feel uncomfortable, just say it."
Perhaps because of her friend's presence, she felt supported by someone. She looked up at the boy opposite her and said, "I hope you can apologize to me. If I hadn't been lucky, I would be in the infirmary right now."
Bo Xia still looked gentle, but his eyes showed that he was not to be violated. When a usually docile person got angry, he would seem difficult to bully.
Zhou Zhiyong was just about to act like a jerk when Zhou Suiye, who had overheard the conversation, raised his foot and gave him a light kick: "Why do you like to be such a jerk? Apologize."
"..." He had to apologize now, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "I'm sorry."
Bo Xia realized that not caring about other people's feelings would not actually have serious consequences. Instead, it made her feel more relaxed. So she decided not to forgive: "I hope you won't do anything to offend me again in the future."
"good."
Bo Xia didn't wipe the glass in the end, so Wen Xin asked her to throw it to Zhou Zhiyong. When the three of them came out, Wen Xin was holding a lollipop in her mouth: "Xia Xia, you are fine like this today. You should put your own feelings first. You only have one life, how can you let yourself down?"
She thought it was indeed the case, and wanted to thank Wen Xin for being by her side and giving her courage, but she felt that the words were too pretentious to say.
Wen Xin took two steps forward and complained, "Men are not good people."
Zhou Suiye, who was caught in the crossfire for no apparent reason, expressed his dissatisfaction: "Tsk, why am I suddenly being implicated?"
"Man isn't a good word these days. I suggest you just leave your male identity and join us. We'll be sisters from now on."
Zhou Suiye: "Can sisters go to the bathroom together?"
"Hey you——"
Bo Xia followed behind them and saw the two people chasing and playing against the pink and purple sunset in the distant sky, and couldn't help laughing.
She went home to eat, then returned to school for evening study and did her papers as usual. When the get out of class was about to end, Jin Yunyan was suddenly called away. As soon as the get out of class was over, Wen Xin whispered to her, "Hey, have you eaten the melon?"
"What melon?"
"The forum said Jin Yunyan was dating a girl on the rooftop, and the two of them were hugging each other."
Bo Xia's heart sank subconsciously, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt that something was wrong.
Just then, a few tall boys walked in, arm in arm. Someone asked Zhou Suiye what was wrong, and he said nonchalantly, "Someone got called in for a talk by the dean because of premature love."
The person next to him asked curiously, "Are you talking about Jin Yunyan? Is this true?"
"Of course it's fake. Even though your brother Jin ranked last in the exam, it's impossible for him to be in a relationship..."
Bo Xia, who was always quiet, suddenly asked him, "What did you say happened to Jin Yunyan?"
The man's name seemed to be hot on her tongue, and just saying it out loud took up a lot of her courage.
She tried to make her tone as natural as possible so that people around her wouldn't notice anything.
Her heart was in turmoil, but no one noticed it. Zhou Suiye just thought she was gossiping. After all, this matter was explosive news to them.
"I don't know who spread the rumor online that Ah Yan was in a relationship. It sounded so convincing, and it ended up being a completely outrageous version. He's being reprimanded in the office right now, and I don't know what the punishment will be," Zhou Suiye gloated. "It seems someone reported him, but I don't know who it was."
His humorous remarks made everyone laugh.
Wen Xin also laughed: "Who is so boring? Don't tell me it's a fan fiction."
The discussions around her sounded so far away, but Bo Xia was thinking about what happened on the rooftop that day. She had vowed to Jin Yunyan that she would help him keep the secret.
He wouldn't misunderstand that he was the one who leaked it.
Bo Xia's chest heaved, her eyelashes fluttered, and she heard the sound of discussion. She raised her head and saw Jin Yunyan walking in, surrounded by several people.
The young man was tall and straight, walking with a slight breeze, and judging by his expression he didn't seem to mind anything.
Zhou Suiye jokingly said, "No reaction at all. It seems the director has let you go."
He sat down, tilted his head slightly, his Adam's apple prominent. "I said it wasn't true, but the director didn't believe me and told me not to delay other people's studies."
Then there was another round of laughter.
Wen Xin was at the forefront of the crowd, jokingly saying, "Teacher is right. You're number one in school, so of course that won't affect your studies. Don't let your girlfriend fail her undergraduate entrance exam."
Jin Yunyan raised the corner of his lips and joked with her: "With me here, how can she fail the exam?"
Everyone was laughing happily, except Bo Xia, who was worried.
After thinking about it for the second period bell, Bo Xia finally couldn't help herself. She glanced at Jin Yunyan's seat. Zhou Suiye sat next to him, so she sat in front of Zhou Suiye under the pretext of asking a question: "Can I ask you a question?"
She didn't even dare to look up at the person next to her.
Zhou Suiye was in a hurry to go to the bathroom: "I have a stomachache, let the person next to me help you."
Ever since a group of people lined up to ask Jin Yunyan questions last time, the task of explaining the questions fell on Zhou Suiye. Bo Xia didn't expect to have this opportunity again.
She raised her eyes hesitantly, and the boy sitting by the window opened his beautiful eyes and asked her, "Which question?"
Even though he had just been scolded, his voice was patient.
Bo Xia felt nervous, as if he had won a prize unexpectedly. Looking at the four words "Thank you for winning", he felt that they were too precious and he dared not redeem them.
She took out her test paper and placed it in front of him, pointing to the fill-in-the-blank question on it: "This one."
Jin Yunyan took out the draft paper. His handwriting was neat and powerful, different from her elementary school student handwriting. Just by looking at the handwriting, one could imagine that he was a kind and handsome man.
She listened to the questions carefully, but because she was a little close to him and smelled his scent, she felt a little distracted. In the end, she didn't understand how to answer the question and felt dizzy.
Seeing that the topic was finished and it was time for Bo Xia to go back, she bit her lip and saw Jin Yunyan screwing the cap on the pen and putting it aside. She mustered up the courage and said, "That..."
She stuttered for a long time -
“That…that…”
Jin Yunyan hadn't noticed her at first, but he found her voice interesting and raised an eyebrow at her, "Which one?"
"That's right..." The girl came closer to him and said in a voice that the people around him couldn't hear, "I didn't say what happened today."
So that's what it is.
He was slightly startled, as if he suddenly realized something. A smile appeared on his face and he leaned in closer. Bo Xia then discovered that he had a light mole on his eyelid. When he smiled, his deep eyes looked like a whirlpool.
She was a little distracted, and then she heard the boy's nonchalant voice: "No misunderstanding."
Jin Yunyan remembered something and picked up the milk from the table drawer. The milk was bought by the nanny and he always stuffed it into his school bag when he didn't drink it. The cute glass bottle didn't seem like something a boy of his age would like to drink. It seemed more like the taste of the introverted girl in pink before him.
So he handed her the bottle of milk and said, "Take the milk and grow taller."
