Chapter 10

"What is this?" Shen Tan picked up the two application forms that were handed to him: "Study Room Application?"

Shen Tan looked up at Tao Luanxi who was standing in front of his desk: "Haven't you been studying at home all this time? Why did you suddenly decide to apply for a study room at school?"

Qiu Yi interrupted: "People can come if they want to. Why should they report everything to you?"

Shen Tan glared at Qiu Yi and said coldly, "I'm the class teacher!" Then he looked at another application form and looked at Qiu Yi meaningfully, "Why? You want to study in class too?"

Qiu Yi nodded: "I am ready to study hard and make progress every day."

Shen Tan snorted: "I'll be thankful if you don't yell at the teacher."

The other teachers in the office all laughed, and the physics teacher came out to smooth things over: "It's a good thing that he is willing to stay in school to study on his own! Teacher Shen, don't be so serious."

Qiu Yi has always been the top student in physics in his grade. The physics teacher likes him very much and would come out to defend Qiu Yi whenever he hears someone say something bad about him.

Shen Tan smiled and didn't continue to scold. He lowered his head and took a pen to sign the two application forms: "You can come tonight. Sign in at 7 o'clock every night. Remember not to be late."

Shen Tan put the watch into the drawer, raised his eyes and stared at Qiu Yi's face with an ambiguous look: "Study hard and don't have any bad thoughts. If I find out, you will be in trouble!"

The two handed in their forms and walked out of the office. Tao Luanxi walked behind him, staring at Qiu Yi's back, as if thinking about something. Qiu Yi turned around and saw him: "What are you thinking about?"

"Do you know Teacher Shen?"

"He's my cousin."

No wonder.

Tao Luanxi nodded thoughtfully. Qiu Yi smiled at his expression and said, "You don't think that he can be the head teacher of our class because of his family? This guy has never asked for a penny from his family since he became an adult. In order to stay away from his family, he even wanted to change his last name."

"I don't think so. Teacher Shen is a nice person."

Qiu Yi raised his eyebrows, turned around and stood in front of Tao Luanxi to block his way.

Tao Luanxi was still thinking about something when suddenly a figure blocked her way and she almost bumped into him. Tao Luanxi angrily asked, "What are you doing?"

"Why not? You just said that Shen Tan's company is good?"

Tao Luanxi frowned: "Isn't it good for him to be the class teacher? He manages the class well and his teaching level is also good. The head of our class likes him very much!"

Qiu Yi was standing with his back to the light, his entire face hidden in the shadows. In the aura of sunlight surrounding him, Tao Luanxi keenly caught a hint of coldness.

"You... don't like your brother?"

Qiu Yi was startled, and the cold air disappeared in an instant like an illusion. Qiu Yi looked at Tao Luanxi and blinked, then showed the same warm smile as before. He stretched out his hand and gently touched Tao Luanxi's soft hair as if playing a prank: "I just don't like you saying that you like other men in front of me."

The place that was touched carried the body temperature of another person. Tao Luanxi was a little stunned. She clenched and unclenched her hands. Before she had time to think, a thought came out of her mouth: "Are you the same as me?"

As usual, he keeps two faces, one to deal with outsiders and the other to hide his true nature.

Qiu Yi was stunned and turned around to look at Tao Luanxi.

Tao Luanxi swallowed his saliva, clenched his fists and thought, it's over, maybe he said something wrong!

What if he gets angry and beats someone up?

Tao Luanxi was afraid that he would suffer a loss, but it would be too frustrating to just run away.

"Why are you so sensitive?" A soft sigh drifted in the wind.

Qiu Yi laughed out loud, and lowered his voice deliberately: "I won't hit you."

Tao Luanxi's body froze. Damn, this guy could actually see what I was thinking?

Qiu Yi shrugged: "I can't bear to do that."

Tao Luanxi was stunned, and suddenly felt a warm spot in his chest, and the messy thoughts in his mind disappeared instantly.

Tao Luanxi snorted and muttered in a low voice: "Who knows what you want to do? No one knows how bad your personality is in private!"

Qiu Yi smiled, walked over and patted Tao Luanxi on the back: "After school this afternoon, I'll take you out for some delicious food!"

As soon as the bell rang for the last class in the afternoon, a class of students rushed to the door like a flood with the gates opened, trying to rush into the cafeteria as soon as possible and grab the first-hand resources.

Tao Luanxi always had dinner at home before, and she didn't feel any urgency about not having good food to eat. She waited leisurely for the students to leave, then took out the Youth League branch reports submitted by each class from under the table and checked them carefully.

Qiu Yi was stunned: "You're not going to eat? Self-study starts at 7 o'clock."

"Yes, the work of the Youth League branch."

"How long will it take?"

"have no idea."

Qiu Yi took a long breath, put down his schoolbag, sat back in the seat in front of Tao Luanxi, took out the lower half from a pile of newspapers, and found a piece of paper to record it.

"What are you doing?" Tao Luanxi was stunned.

"Help you."

Outside the corridor, Yan Hai held a basketball and called Qiu Yi. Qiu Yi waved his hands and said, "I have something to do today so I won't play."

"What can hold you back?" Yan Hai looked through the window and saw Qiu Yi and Tao Luanxi busy at a table. He smiled and said, "When did your relationship become so good?"

Behind Yan Hai, Zhang Zhi looked as if he had eaten a fly.

Several boys left together. Tao Luanxi couldn't tell what he felt now. He had always done these things alone. Even if there were girls willing to help, Tao Luanxi would find various reasons to refuse. But Qiu Yi's attitude——

"You don't have to help me." Tao Luanxi stretched out his hand, trying to take the report back from Qiu Yi's hand, but his hand touched Qiu Yi's hand and was held back by the other party.

"I want to help you!" Qiu Yi curved his eyebrows and smiled impeccably.

Tao Luanxi paused, staring at Qiu Yi in a daze without saying a word.

"What?"

Tao Luanxi frowned slightly: "Are you trying to please me?"

"What if I say yes?"

"Need not!"

"No, that's not the case! I'm helping my classmates and showing love." Qiu Yi lowered his head and looked at the materials in his hand carefully, recording the data on the white paper with an expressionless face, which made Tao Luanxi at a loss for words for a moment.

In fact, he was indeed a little hungry at this moment. He wished he could finish his work early and find a place to eat quickly, so he let Qiu Yi go.

The two of them worked much faster together. Tao Luanxi called the things to the Youth League branch office. When he was leaving, Qiu Yi leaned against the wall outside and looked at Tao Luanxi with a smile: "You're out?"

"You're still here?" Tao Luanxi was a little surprised: "Why are you waiting for me?"

"Hiss, I said I'd take you out to eat, but your memory is so bad?" Qiu Yi put his arm around Tao Luanxi's shoulders. Tao Luanxi wanted to hide, but the teacher behind him just walked out the door and said with a smile, "Hey, Qiu Yi is here too!"

Tao Luanxi was startled and moved a little slower, which gave Qiu Yi the opportunity to put his arm on Tao Luanxi's shoulder.

"Hello, teacher." Qiu Yi smiled brightly.

The teacher nodded. "You two are so close now? A few weeks ago, I asked Tao Luanxi to give you something, but he was reluctant to do it! Boys are bound to have some bumps and bruises when they are together. There is no deep hatred! You two have a good relationship, and the teacher is happy too."

Tao Luanxi lowered his head and said nothing, but he was screaming madly in his heart, "This happened eight hundred years ago, why are you bringing it up?"

Qiu Yi glanced at Tao Luanxi meaningfully, and said politely to the teacher: "I'm sorry to have worried you. We have a very good relationship now."

"Okay, go ahead and have fun. I'm leaving now!"

The teacher's figure disappeared downstairs. Tao Luanxi immediately grabbed Qiu Yi's wrist and pulled it off her shoulder. Qiu Yi seemed to be leaning on Tao Luanxi, but in fact he didn't put any force on his shoulder. It didn't hurt much, but Tao Luanxi didn't like this overly intimate feeling.

Qiu Yi was slightly startled, looking at Tao Luanxi's expression, he raised his hands and said: "I won't touch you anymore, go eat!"

"No!" At least not with you!

Tao Luanxi was about to go downstairs when Qiu Yi's voice came from behind him: "If you go to the cafeteria now, there may not even be any soup."

“I’m going to the supermarket!”

Qiu Yi snorted and laughed: "What's so delicious about bread? It's dry and full of additives. Besides, are you going to eat bread in the classroom?"

Tao Luanxi couldn't help but think of the scene in his mind, feeling a little hesitant.

But what else can I eat if I don’t eat that? Tao Luanxi herself is a little worried

Qiu Yi came over at some point and said quietly, "I know there's a place near the school that makes food right on the spot. The ingredients are all fresh and the taste is much better than in the cafeteria. Their stir-fried pork is absolutely amazing, spicy and fragrant, and the shredded beef is especially chewy, perfect for eating with rice."

Tao Luanxi already had an image in her mind, and her mouth was still drooling unconsciously, but she had to be with Qiu Yi——

"No!" I'd rather die in glory than live in disgrace!

"Gululu——"

In the quiet corridor, the growling of her stomach was particularly clear. Tao Luanxi's ears turned red instantly. Damn my uncooperative stomach!

Tao Luanxi lowered her face, not wanting to look at Qiu Yi's current expression.

This guy must be laughing at me!

Tao Luanxi pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a long time, but did not catch any suspicious laughter. He bravely raised his head slightly and glanced at Qiu Yi with the corner of his eye. He saw that the other party had a calm face. When he noticed that Tao Luanxi was looking at him, Qiu Yi smiled gently without any mockery.

Qiu Yi pushed his shoulder and said, "Let's go! Don't get too hungry!"

The shop was located in a small alley. The narrow aisle was filled with a lot of miscellaneous items. Tao Luanxi almost thought it was a dead end. When she walked to the back, the road became slightly wider. A milk tea shop opened on the side of the road, with a faint milk aroma.

"This is it!" Qiu Yi pulled Tao Luanxi to go in.

"Wait a moment!" Tao Luanxi pulled back her hand and pointed at the sign of the milk tea shop: "'How many cups'?" Are you sure this is a place to eat and not a place to drink tea?

Qiu Yi glanced at the name of the store and shrugged helplessly: "The owner of this store has a problem with his brain. He just likes this weird name, so the business has been bad."

"Whose cerebellum is abnormal?" A woman wearing a headscarf came out from the kitchen. Seeing that it was Qiu Yi, she raised her eyebrows and glared at Qiu Yi: "I knew it was you, a bad boy, who was saying bad things about me!"

Qiu Yi smiled and said, "Sister Xiangxiang." Then he introduced her to Tao Luanxi, "This is the boss lady. You can just call her Sister Xiangxiang."

Tao Luanxi nodded slightly: "Sister Xiangxiang."

Mi Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows and looked at Tao Luanxi carefully: "This is the first time you bring this kid here. Is he your classmate?"

"You can understand it this way for now."

Mi Xiangxiang nodded: "At first glance, he is a gentle man, not the same type as Yan Hai's group of hungry wolves. Come in and sit down!"

Tao Luanxi was led by Qiu Yi to the second floor, where there were several tables. It was still decorated like a milk tea shop, but the space was much larger than downstairs.

"Please sit down for a while. I'll go downstairs to order the food. This is your first time here and you don't know what's good to eat. Can I take charge of the order?"

Tao Luanxi nodded. He was so hungry that he could eat a pig and didn't care what he ate at all.

Qiu Yi went downstairs. Mi Xiangxiang leaned against the door with her arms folded, looking at him meaningfully. Qiu Yi pointed a finger in front of her: "Not doing business anymore?"

"What did you mean by that?"

"Which sentence?"

"Don't play along with me!" Mi Xiangxiang pushed Qiu Yi's shoulder and said, "Every classmate of yours calls me boss lady. You get angry when they call you by your name. Today, when this little boy comes, you ask him to call me sister. Tell me! What's the relationship between you two?"

The author has something to say: Fei Fei Fei is very sorry to all the little cuties. I have been very busy in the three-dimensional world these past two days. I died yesterday without sending a note for leave. I am really sorry, Su Mi Ma San! [Bow]

I will coordinate my schedule later, and I will keep updating the article! Love you guys [Don’t give up on me~]
