During the long break between the third and fourth periods, the entire school lines up to run on the playground.
After finishing their run, everyone dispersed and headed towards the teaching building. Xu Zhuoyue, slightly out of breath, asked Song Yunshen, "Want to play ball this evening?"
"Why didn't you ask about noon first?" Song Yunshen raised an eyebrow and asked back.
"Hehe." Xu Zhuoyue gestured towards Xia Yunuo's retreating figure, "You must have plans for lunch, I can't be bothered to ask."
Recently, Song Yunshen and Xia Yunuo Nuo have been going out to eat more and more frequently. Seeing that his brother has betrayed him, Xu Zhuoyue has completely given up on this guy.
He now eats lunch with Zhong Long, Deng Shitao, and a few others.
"What if I also have dinner plans for dinner?" Song Yunshen teased. "How can you be so sure I'm only having lunch with her?"
"You've forgotten your brothers now that you have a woman, haven't you?" Xu Zhuoyue said irritably. "You haven't been coming to play basketball lately, and we're always short-handed, you know. Your crimes are serious enough to warrant execution."
"You can't beat anyone without me, right?" Song Yunshen chuckled.
"Bullshit! Did I win when you were around?"
"I've never seen you win when I'm facing you."
"You're getting a bit too cocky, kid. Come over here this evening and let's fight!"
"Alright then." Song Yunshen picked at his ear. "I'll reluctantly grant you this favor today."
"Get out! Who are you trying to disgust!"
At noon, the bell rang to signal the end of get out of class.
Xu Zhuoyue and the other boys had already rushed out.
Song Yunshen leisurely tidied up the table, not in a hurry to leave.
Xia Yunuo, sitting in the third row, stole a glance at Song Yunshen, hoping that he would come to find her.
He'll probably come directly to me, right? Whatever he says, I'll just agree.
Hearing Xia Yunuo's thoughts in his mind, Song Yunshen stopped in his tracks, a playful smile creeping onto his lips. He wanted to tease her a little.
So he pretended to open his summer homework, acting as if he wasn't in a hurry to eat and was instead going to do his homework.
Now it was Xia Yunuo's turn to be anxious.
She sat in her chair, watching her classmates leave one by one, until finally only the two of them were left in the classroom, but Song Yunshen didn't come to find her.
Xia Yunuo would occasionally turn her head to look at him and see that he was still doing his homework, her eyes immediately filled with incomprehension.
The sun rose in the west?
Is he crazy? He said this morning that he was going to find a reason to have lunch with me.
But now he looks like he's seriously doing his homework.
What does that mean?
[She's really patient. She clearly wants to have dinner with me, but I'll see if she'll take the initiative to come to me.]
Finally hearing Song Yunshen's inner thoughts, Xia Yunuo blinked and quickly turned her head, silently clenching her two small fists.
No wonder I suddenly started doing homework----
This guy is really something, who wants to eat with him!
You were the one who wanted to have dinner with me, and I reluctantly agreed.
Okay, okay, this will only happen once, and there won't be a next time.
Xia Yunuo easily convinced herself, mustered her courage, and finally stood up and walked towards Song Yunshen.
" Song Yunshen," Xia Yunuo said softly to Song Yunshen, standing beside Xu Zhuoyue's table, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"Hmm? Oh, wait until I finish this question." Song Yunshen decided to go all out if he was going to pretend. He was quite happy to see that Xia Yunuo really couldn't help but come to him.
Xia Yunuo knew, of course, that this guy was faking it, but after looking around and seeing that all the other classmates had left, she nodded to indicate that it was fine and sat down in Xu Zhuoyue's chair.
She pretended not to know anything, leaned closer to Song Yunshen, and looked at his desk. "What homework are you doing?"
"Ahem—I'm done." Song Yunshen quickly closed his blank notebook to avoid being caught red-handed. "Let's go eat."
"Hmm----" Xia Yunuo didn't see anything, but she didn't think much of it. She got up and walked out of the classroom with Xia Yuno.
As soon as he stepped out, he bumped into three main subject teachers coming out of their office.
"Hello, teachers." Song Yunshen greeted them with a smile.
Xia Yunuo, standing to the side, was so frightened that her body stiffened. Feeling inexplicably guilty, she lowered her head. Hearing Song Yunshen's voice, she hurriedly stammered, "H-Hello, teacher."
Zhang Zhidong didn't say anything, he just nodded.
Song Minggui glanced at his nephew, shook his head helplessly, and said nothing.
Jiang Wenpei the two of them up and down, her eyes darting around, and asked curiously, "Why are you leaving so late?"
"I was doing my English summer homework during history class just now," Song Yunshen boasted shamelessly, "And got so engrossed that I lost track of time."
If this had been said before, Jiang Wenpei wouldn't have believed it.
But Song Yunshen performed exceptionally well in class yesterday, leaving Jiang Wenpei somewhat skeptical. "You've been working very hard lately, will you get over 100 in English next time?"
"Cough, cough—well, it's all about human effort." Song Yunshen coughed repeatedly, not daring to make any guarantees, "But my efforts and perseverance are witnessed by heaven and earth."
"You're full of lies." Jiang Wenpei rolled her eyes, ignored him, and followed the two teachers ahead of her quickly toward the cafeteria.
Watching Song Yunshen Xia Yunuo couldn't help but feel admiration.
That's amazing!
In any case, Xia Yunuo could never communicate with her teacher like that.
"Aren't you afraid?" Xia Yunuo asked softly as she followed Song Yunshen downstairs.
Song Yunshen was visibly taken aback. "What are you afraid of?"
"Teacher."
"What's there to be afraid of?" Song Yunshen chuckled. "These days, teachers don't hit people. At most, they'll scold you a couple of times. It's not like you'll lose a piece of flesh. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Besides, our teachers are all very nice people."
"Leaving aside Teacher Song, look at Lao Bao. He's posting emojis in the QQ group himself. He's still pretty down-to-earth."
"And then there's Teacher Jiang, young and beautiful, with a lovely voice, she even gives out lollipops! Where can you find such a wonderful teacher?"
Xia Yunuo listened attentively. At first, she thought Song Yunshen reasonable, but when she heard him praise Jiang Wenpei being beautiful, she suddenly became unhappy for some reason.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Song Yunshen asked when he saw her silence.
"It's nothing," Xia Yunuo replied listlessly.
[Who would say the teacher is beautiful? That's so disrespectful to Teacher Jiang!]
[I'm not thinking this because he didn't compliment my looks]
I just feel that it's best to respect teachers.
Upon hearing Xia Yunuo's inner thoughts, Song Yunshen almost couldn't help but laugh.
Xia Yunuo.
"Um?"
"You are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in school."
"Huh?" Xia Yunuo was stunned. "Why... why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
"Oh, just a thought." Song Yunshen looked up at the bright sky. "What's wrong? Can't I even give you a compliment? I wouldn't mind if you called me the most handsome guy in the whole school."
"What is it----" Xia Yunuo lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, her two small hands clenched tightly together, and she muttered softly.
