Chapter 345 (Updated 345-351)
345:
Ye Qingxi started junior high school, so she took the initiative to suggest that Mu Shaowu no longer needed to pick her up at noon.
Actually, he had told Mu Shaowu about it before, but at that time he was still in elementary school and Mu Shaowu was worried. So whenever he had time, he would pick up Ye Qingxi to have dinner together and then take him back to his dormitory.
If he didn't have time, he would have Aunt Zhang deliver the food.
Now, Ye Qingxi brought it up again. Mu Shaowu thought about it and felt that with Qin Cheng around and the fact that they were in junior high school, they really shouldn't be like they were in elementary school anymore, so he agreed.
Ye Qingxi smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I'll definitely be fine."
"I'll call you if anything happens." He waved his phone.
When he entered the first year of junior high school, Mu Shaowu bought him a cell phone.
Although Ye Qingxi has only recently gotten her new smartwatch, considering that middle school students might pay more attention to clothing and accessories, perhaps she'll want to replace it with a different wristwatch?
Besides, the screen of a smartwatch is too small; how can it be as convenient as a mobile phone?
Anyway, Ye Qingxi has always been quite good and self-disciplined in his studies, so Mu Shaowu felt there was no need to restrict him too much.
If all else fails, he can always take the phone back if Ye Qingxi's grades drop.
Ye Qingxi was quite pleased with this.
He still prefers using his mobile phone.
With a mobile phone, he can do many things more freely.
Therefore, on the first day after school, Ye Qingxi took the initiative to go to Qin Cheng's class to have lunch with him.
When he arrived, Qin Cheng's class had just finished school.
The teacher came out, paused for a moment after seeing him, but didn't say anything and continued walking towards the office.
Soon, students followed the teacher out.
They were chatting in small groups, but stopped when they saw Ye Qingxi, clearly surprised.
When Ye Qingxi saw them looking over, she smiled at them in a friendly manner.
Qin Cheng's classmates also laughed.
Are you here to see Qin Cheng?
After a morning of discussion, most of the students in the class already knew that Ye Qingxi, who gave a speech under the national flag this morning, was Mu Shaowu's son, Ye Qingxi, who sang at the opening ceremony of the World Championships and played Qiao Tian in the movie "Summer".
He is also the younger brother of Qin Cheng, the male god in their class.
Ye Qingxi nodded.
"Wait a minute, we just finished class."
"Okay," Ye Qingxi replied.
Looking at him, his classmates felt that he was really no different from Qin Cheng at all.
This person has such a great personality!
Not only would they laugh with him, but they would also speak to him in a gentle and polite manner!
If you didn't know, who would guess that he was Qin Cheng's younger brother!
"Um, can I take a picture with you? I really like you," someone couldn't help but ask.
These words immediately caused an uproar at the entrance of Class 1, Grade 9, with many people speaking up:
"Me too, me too, I also love your dad."
"I can still sing that song of yours now."
"Ye Qingxi, will you still act in the future?"
Ye Qingxi: ...
Just as Ye Qingxi was silently reminiscing about her manager Chen Xiang, Qin Cheng appeared.
He wasn't in a hurry to come out, but when he heard the class monitor say, "Qin Cheng, your brother is here," he quickly stood up and went outside the classroom.
Sure enough, Ye Qingxi was surrounded by a group of people.
Qin Cheng: ...
Qin Cheng walked over, pulled Ye Qingxi out, and headed straight for the stairwell.
Ye Qingxi: ? ? ?
Ye Qingxi could only turn around and quickly say goodbye to Qin Cheng's classmates.
"Goodbye," said the classmates who had been surrounding him.
"Ye Qingxi has such a great personality."
"That's right, he's completely different from his brother."
"Honestly, why can't his brother learn from his younger brother?"
"I wish I were Ye Qingxi's classmate."
Ye Qingxi followed Qin Cheng down the stairs, and Qin Cheng slowed down.
"Why are you here?" he asked, puzzled.
"I've come to have dinner with you," Ye Qingxi said.
Qin Cheng thought that Mu Shaowu would definitely come to see him on the first day of school, and that he would definitely have dinner with his father. Therefore, he had prepared to eat alone. He didn't expect that Mu Shaowu would come to see him on the very first day.
He was quite pleased and asked, "What would you like to eat?"
What are some good places to eat around here?
Qin Cheng thought for a moment. At this time, the cafeteria must already be packed with people. Therefore, he led Ye Qingxi to the street of restaurants outside the school.
Ye Qingxi followed him, and after leaving the school gate, she habitually glanced at the shops on the roadside. Qin Cheng also slowed down and walked with her.
When they arrived at the so-called restaurant street, Ye Qingxi looked around for a long time before finally entering a stir-fry restaurant.
The two ordered four dishes and a soup, and chatted as they ate.
As Qin Cheng ladled soup for him, he asked with concern, "How's it going? Are you adjusting well on your first day of school?"
Ye Qingxi nodded.
The students in their class are all quite friendly.
Although some people were enthusiastic and kept asking him this and that, it was all out of curiosity and no malice intended.
"That's good," Qin Cheng said.
He placed the soup beside Ye Qingxi, who said thank you and lowered her head to drink the soup.
The students of Class 1, Grade 9, who were also in the store but were ignored by Qin Cheng, thought: ...I never expected that their class's top student would have this side to him!
She thought he was always so cold and aloof to everyone.
[Guess who I met?] She immediately shared it with her friends.
【who? 】
[Qin Cheng! And his younger brother Ye Qingxi!]
Friend: [Wow~ Is Ye Qingxi handsome? I was standing too far away during the flag-raising ceremony today, so I couldn't see him clearly. Does he look the same in person as in the movies?]
It's pretty much the same; anyway, it looks quite nice.
Friend: [I should have gone out to eat with you!]
[Then you'll see Qin Cheng serving him tea and water, ladling soup and serving him food, tsk, do you think he's a brother-obsessed brother?]
Friend: [Who are you going to control? Ye Qingxi? Then I'd be willing too [shy]]
classmate:……
After finishing their meal, Ye Qingxi and Qin Cheng returned to their dormitory. After taking a nap, they went back to school.
Ye Qingxi's class is Class 1 of the first year of junior high school.
As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a ruler for a day, and a class cannot be without class leaders for a day.
On the afternoon of the first day of school, the homeroom teacher initiated the selection of class officers.
Instead of assigning a position directly, she asked the students in the class if anyone had served as class monitor, academic representative, arts and culture representative, or subject representative in elementary school. She wanted to temporarily appoint one of these people and then see if they needed to be adjusted or replaced once everyone was more familiar with the role.
Of course, if you haven't been a candidate before but want to be one now, you can raise your hand to sign up and participate in the selection process.
When asked who had ever been the arts and culture committee member, Ye Qingxi quietly raised her hand.
When the students in the class saw him raise his hand, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
In the subsequent vote for the arts and literature committee members, Ye Qingxi secured first place with over forty votes and became the arts and literature committee member without any suspense.
Ye Qingxi: ...I feel like I'm really stuck in this position for the rest of my life.
Classmates: Great! Finally, we have someone we know. We'll choose him.
The former literary and art committee members who were not selected did not complain much, after all, compared with Ye Qingxi, they did seem to be less qualified.
However, for every person who likes him, there is someone who dislikes him. Although most of the students in Class 1 of Grade 7 liked Ye Qingxi, it didn't stop some boys from disliking him.
"Honestly, she really thinks she's a big star."
"Don't say that. He's a big star. Look at the admission treatment he received, and he even gave speeches under the national flag."
"The same goes for the class committee election. He got just over forty votes, while the others only got a dozen or so."
"And the girls in the class were the same. They asked him for autographs and photos. Sun Linlin ignored me, but she always greeted him with a smile."
"We're all students, why are you resorting to these underhanded tricks? If you're so capable, let's compare grades."
"Exactly, he definitely doesn't have as good grades as Cao Jia!"
"Just wait and see, the rankings will tell the truth!"
Cao Jia: That's right!
However, Cao Jia and the others soon fell silent.
In the first monthly exam, Ye Qingxi surpassed Pei Liang by one point, becoming the top student in the grade.
The entire grade was shocked, and even Ye Qingxi's teacher couldn't help but be surprised.
After all, Ye Qingxi's star aura was too dazzling, so much so that even though Mu Shaowu had said in interviews more than once that Ye Qingxi's grades were very good, they didn't take it to heart, and even thought that Mu Shaowu was just being a doting father.
Moreover, if he were to appear on television, could he really say that Ye Qingxi's grades were bad in front of a national audience?
So whether it's his teachers or classmates, they all think that someone who has been singing, acting, and appearing on variety shows since childhood, looking like he's going to develop in the entertainment industry, must have very average grades.
Unexpectedly, he achieved such excellent grades.
Those in the class who already liked him now idolized him even more.
The teachers looked at him with admiration and respect—how could someone be so outstanding in their side hustles (singing, acting) and also so excellent in their main profession?!
How is his brain structured?!
Cao Jia and the others thought so too.
"This doesn't make sense!"
"He really didn't cheat?"
"He's first in the grade, how could he cheat?!"
"And his friend's grades are also very good, so they can't possibly cheat together."
"Awesome! That's really awesome!"
"Now, I think he'd want to greet even the girls in the class with a smile, let alone the girls in the class."
Cao Jia: That's why they say knowledge is power. You see, his brother, who used to dislike Ye Qingxi, is now almost willing to be his underling!
"But Ye Qingxi is really amazing," Cao Jia couldn't help but sigh, "at least I can't do that."
Let alone comparing him to Ye Qingxi, he's no match for even his good friend Pei Liang. He can only compare himself to his other two good friends.
Soon, it became known that Ye Qingxi was not only good-looking, good at singing and acting, but also had excellent grades, even ranking first in their grade in the monthly exam.
He was already well-known, and with his good family background, he always hung out with Pei Liang, Zhong Yan, Kang Cong, and others who also came from good families. So behind their backs, many people secretly called them the F4 of Class 1, Grade 7.
"Huh?" Ye Qingxi listened to Chen Xiang excitedly talking about "F4" and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Wow, F4 is actually him!
Chen Xiang nodded, "It's true, I heard it with my own ears."
"They also said that in your F4, the eldest is Pei Liang, the strategist, the second is Kang Cong, Zhong Yan is the third, and you are the fourth."
Ye Qingxi: ? ? ?
Ye Qingxi: ...
They even divided them into one, two, three, and four?
But it's fine, Ye Qingxi thought. Anyway, he is indeed the youngest, so being the fourth one is fine.
Zhong Yan, however, was somewhat dissatisfied. "How can Pei Liang be the eldest? He's only older than Xiao Xi, and younger than me and Kang Cong."
“They said Pei Liang looks more mature,” Chen Xiang explained to him.
Zhong Yan: ? ? ?
Zhong Yan thought this person was probably blind.
Pei Liang smiled and said, "Then she has excellent taste."
Zhong Yan: "Heh."
And so, Ye Qingxi's junior high school years became more and more exciting.
