Chapter 23 Vacation "I saw him standing by my bed and trying to murder me."...
Jiang Ci was speechless for a moment: "..." That's a nice thought.
"Students, here are two sets of history test papers. Please take advantage of the holiday to do them. The qualification exam is coming soon, so everyone should spend more time on it." Soon the history teacher also brought two stacks of test papers into the classroom.
"Help! If you didn't know about the workload, you'd think we were going to have a month-long vacation."
"I recall the fear of being dominated by 48 exam papers during National Day last year in high school."
"Don't worry, I couldn't finish it last year, and I won't be able to finish it this year either."
"I remember you finished writing it last year?" Yu Xiang listened to the complaints of his classmates around him, roughly recalled the situation during last year's National Day holiday, and turned to ask Jiang Ci.
"I'm done."
"You're really not human." Yu Xiang sighed from the bottom of his heart, then noticed Jiang Ci raised his eyelids and looked at him meaningfully. After thinking for a moment, he added, "I mean, you're a god of learning."
Jiang Ci: "Really?"
Yu Xiang raised an eyebrow. "That's not particularly true, it's just that your expression is too creepy."
"I don't think my expression is as scary as you say. Continue." Jiang Ci pointed at the math problem they were halfway through studying and gestured.
Yu Xiang's scalp tingled when he saw the math problem: "Your current state is the most terrifying."
"The more afraid you are, the worse your math grades will be." Jiang Ci handed him a pen and said, "Write down the derivation process."
Yu Xiang resigned himself to his fate and took the pen. Just as he was about to start thinking, he heard Ning Anyan's somewhat impatient voice from the next group: "I've already taught you three similar questions. Why don't you understand?"
He looked up at the sound and saw Zhang Miao standing stiffly beside Ning Anyan's seat. He said sheepishly, "Sorry, I'm a bit slow..."
"I feel like I can't teach you. Why don't you go find Teacher Lei and ask for someone else?"
"Okay, then I won't bother you anymore." Zhang Miao said and left with the exercise book.
Yu Xiang observed all of this and then returned his attention to his own problem, but he couldn't help but mutter, "I guess it's not that he can't teach, it's that he simply doesn't want to teach."
After all, some people think that this model does not promote common progress, but is like carrying a burden and wasting their time.
But there are also some people who are really doing their best to help students who are not good at certain subjects, and at the same time they are also gaining deeper knowledge from the projects they explain to others.
Ning Anyan obviously belongs to the former, while Jiang Ci belongs to the latter.
"Don't just focus on others, do your own thing first." Jiang Ci reminded him.
"I see. I was just wondering what to do with Sanshui, otherwise you..."
"I only have enough energy to help you." Jiang Ci had already guessed what he was going to say. "If he needs anything, he can ask me. As long as I have the time, I won't refuse."
"...Okay." Yu Xiang felt like he should say something nice to thank Jiang Ci, but after trying for a long time, he could only manage: "You're a good person."
Jiang Ci chuckled when he heard this: "I'll take the good guy card. Now do your homework."
Since they still had to take a holiday for the college entrance examination in early June, their May Day holiday was cut to only three days.
As a hard-working high school student who works from 6 am to 10 pm every day, Yu Xiang has already planned these three days - sleep, sleep, sleep.
But on the first day, this beautiful plan was ruthlessly destroyed by Ms. Chen Xiaomie.
At nine-thirty in the morning, Yu Xiang was forcibly awakened by the buzzing phone next to his pillow.
He squinted his eyes, then closed them again after answering the call: "Mom, I have a day off today. I want to sleep in. Please don't bother me..."
"Labor Day is for you to work, not to sleep in. Besides, it's almost ten o'clock, it's time to get up—" Chen Xiaomei said vigorously on the phone, "Hurry up and get changed. I'll take you out to play."
Yu Xiang was still whining and trying to deny it, "Nonsense. Labor Day is for working people to rest, and sleep is the best rest."
"Don't try to be so rude. You're a student, not a working class person. Hurry up and get up. I want to see you downstairs before ten o'clock."
"Ah..." Yu Xiangsheng wailed hopelessly and opened his eyes unhappily. As a result, Jiang Ci's iconic handsome face came into view, and his beautiful eyes were looking down at him condescendingly.
"Ah!" This was more effective than any alarm clock. The sleepiness in Yu Xiang's head was instantly driven away. He was startled awake instantly. He immediately threw his phone aside and covered himself with the quilt, saying in extreme fear: "Why are you here? No, how did you get in?"
Jiang Ci lowered his eyes and looked at Yu Xiang's hands that were clutching the quilt: "Aunt Chen asked me to wake you up."
At the same time, Chen Xiaomei's voice came from the phone again: "Oh, right, I just asked Xiao Ci to go up and call you. Did you see him?"
"I saw him standing over my bed and trying to murder me."
"How can you talk like that? It's so rude." Chen Xiaomei lectured him, then said to Jiang Ci, "Xiao Ci, ignore him. He's just a bad mouth."
"Yeah. I know." Jiang Ci responded calmly.
"What do you know? You know nothing." Yu Xiang said, picking up the phone again. "Okay, okay, I'm getting up. I'll hang up first."
He hung up the phone after he finished speaking and raised his hand to scratch his messy head: "So how did you get in? Didn't I lock the door?"
"The door of your room was open when I came up." Jiang Ci replied.
"What kind of supernatural event is this..." Yu Xiang felt a chill down his spine, but then he remembered that earlier today Chen Xiaomie seemed to be coming in to take his clothes to wash. He opened the door for her in a half-awake state and then fell back to sleep.
I think Chen Xiaomei forgot to close the door when she went out.
"So why did you come to my house at this time?" Yu Xiang lifted the quilt, sat up, looked up and asked Jiang Ci.
"Because my mom is going shopping with Aunt Chen, and she's using us as tools." Jiang Ci also looked helpless. "By the way, Aunt Chen also asked you to bring your homework."
Jiang Ci's father was working overtime, and Yu Jinsheng's new job didn't give him any holidays. As the only sons in their respective families, they were naturally targeted.
After hearing what he said, Yu Xiang suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart: "Bringing homework while shopping, this must not be that simple."
"Based on past experience, this means we may have to stay outside all day." In fact, this was not the first time the two of them were caught going out shopping together, and Jiang Ci had already figured out the pattern.
Yu Xiang knew this too, but simply didn't want to face the truth: "Let me guess, are we going to a cat cafe to do homework this time, or a dog cafe..."
I have already imagined the scene of two women sitting elegantly in a cafe drinking coffee, while the other two of them are writing furiously at another table.
"It's possible." Jiang Ci picked up his phone and checked the time. "You'd better hurry up, time is running out."
Yu Xiang wanted to struggle one last time: "Do you think there's still a possibility that we can refuse to go out?"
"Probably not." Compared to Yu Xiang, Jiang Ci seemed to have accepted this reality calmly. "But it's a rare day off, so it's nice to go out for a walk."
"That's an excuse my mom would come up with. No wonder she always says it would be great if you were her son." Yu Xiang sighed and got out of bed. As he stood up, he met Jiang Ci's gaze. "Why are you looking at me like that?"
Jiang Ci took a half step back, looked him up and down, and said seriously, "You're wearing clothes."
Yu Xiang didn't understand what he meant. She glanced down at her pajamas with a puzzled look on her face, then looked up at him again: "So?"
A subtle cunning glint flashed across Jiang Ci's eyes. "So I was wondering what your intention was in covering your body with the blanket just now."
Yu Xiang: “…”
That's right. Why did he block it just now? He wasn't naked.
"It's just a conditioned reflex." Yu Xiang's face turned pale and red. After saying this, he turned away and walked towards the bathroom.
He spent more than ten minutes preparing to go out, then casually stuffed a few test papers into his bag and went downstairs.
"Yu Xiang, what are you wearing?" Chen Xiaomei's eyes went dark after seeing Yu Xiang's outfit. "Why are you wearing a school uniform when you go out to play?"
"I can't find any other clothes for a while." Yu Xiang tugged at his school uniform jacket and said nonchalantly, "It's not ugly anyway, so I'll just wear it."
"It's okay, it's okay. At worst, I can just buy one when I get there." Luo Fang said with a smile, "It's almost time, why don't we set off first?"
"Then let's go."
The four of them went out together.
The weather today is very good, it is indeed suitable for going out.
While Luo Fang was driving the car over, Yu Xiang put his hands in his pockets, looked around, and finally stopped at Jiang Ci.
I have seen Jiang Ci wearing school uniforms many times, but when I first saw him wearing a casual white short-sleeved shirt and black trousers, I somehow felt a sense of brightness.
Especially when the sunlight hits him, his whole body seems to radiate warm light.
It was at this time that Yu Xiang noticed that Jiang Ci had nothing in his hands, and he was very casual about not holding anything.
Looking at himself, he was not only wearing a school uniform but also carrying a bag, as if he was going out for tutoring.
"Where are your things?" Yu Xiang frowned and asked.
"They're all in the car." Jiang Ci turned around and glanced at him, "What's wrong?"
"No. Just asking." As soon as Yu Xiang finished speaking, Luo Fang drove over.
Chen Xiaomie was bound to chat with Luo Fang on the way, so she naturally got into the passenger seat, and Yu Xiang could only sit in the back seat with Jiang Ci.
"How is your husband, Mr. Yu, adapting to his new job?"
"It's not bad. To be honest, it's all thanks to your old Jiang. If it weren't for him..."
The two parents were chatting happily in the front row, but Yu Xiang was in a bad mood in the back row and even yawned - he was a little carsick and didn't dare to play with his mobile phone.
"Yu Xiang, why are you sitting in the back row without saying a word? It would be nice to chat with Xiao Ci and exchange learning experiences." Chen Xiaomie was halfway through her conversation when she noticed that there was no movement in the back row, so she turned around and said to Yu Xiang.
"There's nothing to talk about." Yu Xiang replied lazily.
Chen Xiaomei glared at him.
Yu Xiang then perfunctorily clenched his fist, pretending it was a microphone, and raised his hand to Jiang Ci's lips: "Interview, how do you usually study?"
Jiang Ci: "..."
Chen Xiaomei: “…”
But the next second, Luo Fang stepped on the brakes a little too hastily for some reason. Jiang Ci and Yu Xiang were unable to react in time and leaned forward suddenly due to inertia. Jiang Ci's lips touched Yu Xiang's hand.
Yu Xiang's mind went blank. He only felt that he had touched something warm and soft. Then he realized that it was Jiang Ci who had bumped into his hand. He was startled. "Is your face okay? Open your mouth so I can see if your teeth are bleeding?"
"It's okay." Jiang Ci sat up straight again and asked Luo Fang: "Mom, what happened just now?"
"Oh, it's okay. A dog suddenly rushed out and scared me." Luo Fang was also frightened. "Are you and Xiao Xiang okay?"
"It's okay." Jiang Ci responded indifferently and turned to look at Yu Xiang, who was frowning and looking at his hands seriously.
For this reason, he asked in confusion: "What's wrong with your hand?"
Yu Xiang turned around when he heard the sound and asked, "Did your saliva get on my hand?"
Jiang Ci: "..."
Yu Xiang calmly reached out his hand and rubbed it on Jiang Ci's clothes again and again.
"You wiped your hands on my clothes?" Jiang Ci raised his eyebrows and said coldly.
"You're disgusted with your own saliva?" Yu Xiang replied righteously.
