Chapter 24



If the speech was trending on the day of the lecture, it was a coincidence. Then, the popularity of the top student from Jiangda High School did not subside, but became more and more intense.

The impact of this on Yu Linxu was no less than a grand social death, which penetrated into every aspect of his life like a tide. He experienced the saying that people are afraid of fame just as pigs are afraid of getting fat.

Every time the class was over, it was like a catastrophe for him. He didn't even dare to step out of the classroom, because even if he met students from other classes in the corridor, they would not make a fuss, but they would look at him twice.

Junior students who did not attend the lecture in person would also be curious and deliberately pass by Class 9 of Grade 3 to see what this senior who is obviously an amateur but has already become a hot topic looks like, and see with their own eyes whether his temperament is as extraordinary as netizens say.

It can be said that Lin Xu was just a handsome guy before, but now he has become a famous handsome guy.

The classmates in Class 9 accepted it well, because in the past, there were always a few high-looking academic masters, and at that time, it would also set off a small-scale wave and become a legendary figure in the middle school.

It’s just that this time, Lin Xu from their class, with the blessing of the media, has become a little more popular.

Every time Lin Xu left the school gate, he could hear students whispering about him, all of which were compliments.

Lin Xu felt ashamed and was not happy, but terrified. As a socially anxious person, he is afraid of the focus being on himself, and praise will make his toes dig into the ground.

But fortunately, he can pretend that he didn't hear it, and rush home with a calm expression.

When he got home, there was another catastrophe.

Mrs. Wang from the neighbor's house is a person who loves to show off. She is often proud of her husband's decent job and earning a lot of money. She is also proud of her children's promising future, all of them have good grades and good looks. During the chat, they would warn Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin to pay more attention to their grandson's study and must discipline him strictly. For example, their youngest son is very sensible and does his homework until the early morning after school, unlike Lin Xu, who often goes out to play crazy.

Now when Lin Xu returns home, she occasionally hears Mrs. Wang chatting with her grandmother: "Big sister, I've long said that your Lin Xu has great potential. I heard that he gave a speech at the school this time. It's amazing!" She would find the video of Lin Xu's speech and comment on it carefully.

Such a loud and pleasant voice, talented words, and elegant image...

Grandma Lin didn't hold grudges, didn't refuse her face, and listened patiently with a smile.

When she saw Lin Xu coming back with his schoolbag, she quickly took Lin Xu's schoolbag and went home while saying goodbye to Mrs. Wang.

After returning home and closing the door, Grandma Lin asked kindly: "Are you hungry, little Xu? Do you want grandma to cook for you?"

She used to go to square dancing often, but now she is waiting for Lin Xu to come home.

After returning home, Lin Xu's ears and face were hot and red, and then he returned to normal.

He said considerately, "It's okay, grandma, I'm not hungry, I'm going to my room to do my homework."

But Grandma Lin held him back and said slowly with a distressed look, "Xiao Xu, you've been under a lot of pressure lately, staying in your room to study every day."

"It's normal to be like this when the college entrance examination is coming up." Lin Xu explained.

Grandma Lin then said, "Why doesn't your former good friend Mao Jun invite you to play anymore? Did you have a conflict with your friends?"

Lin Xu remembered that Grandma Lin only knew that he and Mao Jun got along well and loved to play games together, and didn't know that he used to play with those little gangsters, so she was relieved every time they went out.

"No, he's busy studying too." Lin Xu knew that his grandma was worried about him, so he said.

"Don't believe what Mrs. Wang said. Grandma doesn't ask you to be successful, just safe and happy." She just saw that her grandson was studying too hard recently and didn't pay attention to rest, so she was worried that he was stimulated.

After all, Lin Xu has been a lively and active person since he was young, and he has never liked going to school. In addition, some things happened, so his family is very tolerant of him, as long as he doesn't learn bad things. Now he can be said to have grown up, but he is too sensible.

"I know, grandma." Lin Xu nodded and hugged her.

After comforting her, he pushed Grandma Lin out the door to dance again, and Lin Xu returned to his simple and tidy room.

If there is a soul, there is existence, then the original owner must still exist, and perhaps he is also experiencing a wonderful adventure, just like he is now. He put these thoughts behind him and played his current role in life down to earth.

In fact, compared with the sudden flowers and praise in real life, Lin Xu is more worried about other things.

At first, he thought that people in the group were just discussing it because it was new, and he was already scared at that time.

Although he and Zhizhi had never video chatted, and even their photos were not clear, and they could not recognize each other when standing in front of each other, Lin Xu always had a sense of crisis.

After all, his name, his face, and his voice were always exposed to Zhizhi. Although the other party did not know that it was him, they had begun to get familiar with him.

He just waited for time to calm down, but a few days passed, the heat in the group did not drop, and even began to become weird.

For example, now, when Lin Xu casually clicks on the group message, he can see group members who use screenshots of his speeches as their avatars, and their online names have been changed to Lin Xu's brother fans.

He is embarrassed and ashamed.

But they don't know that he is in the group and is discussing it.

Lin Xu's older brother fan: "Unfortunately, I searched through their school forums, but there are no more casual photos. They are all wearing school uniforms with the collar buttons buttoned to the top... but that can't hide the brother's handsome face~"

"Come on, he's still a high school student, don't be so beastly!"

"He's an adult already, okay? He'll be going to college soon. Besides, I'm just an older brother fan, I don't have any bad thoughts."

"Tsk! Wasn't your ideal type before Amour? And then you liked Zoe. Why did you change your mind so quickly?" someone teased him.

"Amour might be a down-and-out middle-aged uncle, very fake. Thinking about him makes me feel blind. I just don't understand Zhizhi Mangmang. We all know that person is a fake, why do they still praise and protect him? Maybe this is the fun of the second-generation rich? If I were so rich, I would just wait until my brother goes to college to find him."

"What about Zoe? He doesn't have any black material,

right?" "I think he looks like a gigolo. He used to praise Zhizhi Mangmang, and now he is hanging out with several other rich group members. Forget it. The innocent brother is the real one~" "

He is also a top student in the affiliated high school. His classmates say that he doesn't have ambiguous relationships with girls. He is very cool and aloof. He is simply an ideal type!"

The trend in the group has changed. Perhaps they feel that compared to the ignorant netizens, they think that the outstanding boys in reality are more worthy of being liked, and the appearance of Lin Xu has undoubtedly found a home for this idea.

Even if they can't get him, as long as his brother doesn't find a partner, he is their paper boyfriend.

Looking at the praises of the group members, Lin Xu was too embarrassed to read on. It happened that he was the one being scolded and liked.

Gu Jinzhi didn't care what kind of male high school student the group members started to like. He just looked at him a few more times. He only had a superficial impression in his heart and felt that he was worthy of the image and temperament that became a little popular.

There was no more, after all, it had nothing to do with him, and he didn't mix it. He didn't care that the group was crazy about posting photos of that male high school student, and even many people collected it as wallpaper. He thought it was exaggerated.

Gu Jinzhi was just wondering why Amour seemed a little weird lately, always startled.

He asked: "Brother, I still want to hear you sing~ (looking forward to it)"

Even "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is fine, he can use it to sleep at night. He didn't know if he deleted it after listening to it last time, and he couldn't find the chat history. He wanted to save it.

And Lin Xu could only reply with shaking fingers: "I caught a cold recently, and my throat is not so good."

Although Gu Jinzhi couldn't connect him with the real Lin Xu, it was a voice after all, Lin Xu didn't dare, he thought it was better to keep a low profile during this period.

"Ah... okay." Gu Jinzhi pouted.

How could he catch a cold for no reason.

"Are you too tired from work? So you feel a little weak?" Gu Jinzhi was still a little worried.

Amour is just an ordinary office worker, who must be very tired of being exploited by an unscrupulous boss. Thinking about it, he began to get angry again.

"Brother, have you ever thought about changing jobs? You are so serious about your work attitude and your English is so good, it must be better to go somewhere else. Otherwise, come back to the capital to find a job, it will be more convenient in the future." Instant noodles.

Gu Jinzhi tested him openly and secretly.

Lin Xu paused. He was about to take the college entrance examination and could not go anywhere. What's more, Gu Jinzhi was in the capital, and he, he, he, was not ready.

"Ah, I'll think about it carefully in the future." He said helplessly.

Lin Xu was still worried. Helplessly, he rarely showed up in the group and said politely: "I feel that it is not good to talk about others (bubble)."

Ever since Amour was a liar, everyone had a bad impression of him, although they only said it secretly occasionally, after all, he did not lie to them.

But Amour, who had never shown up, said something so unreasonable, which was really weird.

"? What are you talking about."

"We didn't talk about you, we talked about other boys, and it didn't affect them."

"Amour, are you jealous? Jealous that we like Lin Xu's brother?" They asked.

Lin Xu was embarrassed and a little depressed. It would be okay if they talked behind his back, but he could see it, and Zhizhi could see it too.

Gu Jinzhi felt awkward again, thinking that Amour was unhappy because of this, but their liking had nothing to do with Amour, he has a partner now!

A little unhappy, Gu Jinzhi still went to the group to say something for her boyfriend: "Why is he jealous? He is not single."

But she still felt that Amour was a little strange, so she asked him: "What's wrong, are you unhappy?"

"I just..." Lin Xu couldn't explain, he gave up the struggle.

Gu Jinzhi thought about the reason for him, and asked with his chin in his hand: "Are you worried that I will like good-looking boys like them?" Otherwise, what other reasons are there.

Lin Xu was stunned, he had never thought about it.

Gu Jinzhi generously comforted him again: "Don't worry, I won't. I just like mature men, especially those who work hard like you." Gu Jinzhi thought for a long time before she came up with an objective advantage of the object to comfort him.

After all, her boyfriend looks ordinary and has an ordinary family background. Although he likes him and he thinks he is a very good person, no one would believe it if he said it out loud.

Working hard and actively working overtime are solid advantages! He worked overtime until he caught a cold, which is a complete model worker. If you work under him, you must have chicken legs for lunch! It's much better than those trainees who are lazy and don't practice, but fantasize about debuting all day long!

This was the first time that Lin Xu was not embarrassed by being praised. He was just a little speechless because it was the first time someone used such words to praise him, and he always felt very forced.

"Don't worry about them, let them chat as they please. I won't chat about that little boy anyway, don't worry." Gu Jinzhi smiled, thinking that the other party was too insecure, and he promised that he would never click on the other party's photo to look at it again.

Gu Jinzhi was almost moved to tears by his own deep affection.

"Okay..." Lin Xu replied, holding his chin, and no longer cared about the weird sarcasm in the group. After all, from their point of view, he was indeed meddling in other people's business.

In this case, it was barely okay, at least it reduced the possibility of Zhizhi noticing, although he was really not childishly jealous.
