They had gy said, ”Sorry, sorry I got too excited there Let's talk during gym class, then If you want to participate, just coht sleeper He heard soht before class started, Wu Zheng passed by their classroom and handed the homework to the class rep, who distributed it to the class He was very energetic about handing out the papers, and even though people asked if they could help, he didn't let them
”Xie, Xie Yu…” The class rep read out the naet
The next second, an exercise book crash-landed next to Xie Yu's head
Xie Yu opened his eyes
The class repand didn't look at the exercise book before stuffing it into the desk drawer
He Zhao was looking down at his phone to the side He earing his earphones in, the cord winding out froot to He Zhao, he called out, ”Zhao-ge!”
He Zhao obligingly raised his hand to catch the 'ball' After he caught it, he exclailish: ”Wo-ow, nice”
”You're awake?” After catching the exercise book, He Zhao turned to Xie Yu and asked, ”…Where's your homework?”
Xie Yu said, ”What do you need it for?”
He Zhao was good at taking what he wanted, and now he leaned right over to Xie Yu's side of the desk and looked in the desk drawer ”Just taking a look”
Xie Yu didn't stop hi He took the exercise book and slammed it onto the desk ”Take it and admire it and scram”
On both his and He Zhao's exercise books, fro red checkmarks
He Zhao flipped to the questions frole one right, either, then contentedly closed it and put it back for hi I feel reassured”
Xie Yu was still lying down, half his face obscured with his sleeve so that only his eyes showed The warm breath he exhaled landed on the fabric of his sleeve, and he looked like a little animal that one wanted to reach out and pet Of course, before one did so, they'd have to prepare to die ”What's up with that?”
He Zhao pointed at a line of text on the blackboard: Wu Zheng's writing, neat and boisterous
—The two students who got everything wrong, go to the office during gym class Be there or else
”It happened when you were sleeping” In the end, He Zhao couldn't resist reaching out and ruffling Xie Yu's hair ”Life's like that An endless amount of surprises”
Xie Yu didn't really mind and made a noise of assent Really, he still seemed quite cold: frorees of hiht he must have been possessed—or perhaps it was just that Xie Yu's hair was so soft He actually thought that the emotionless killer, when he had just woken up, was just a little bit cute
He Zhao continued, ”Don't worry I'm here for you”
At this point Xie Yu couldn't continue agreeing
The notice stayed on the blackboard through the next two class periods Even though it didn't mention their names directly, everyone kneho it referred to
Wan Da was excited ”Shall we make a bet?”
Liu Cunhao said, ”Do we need to bet on this? 'The two students…' who else would it be?”
Xu Qingqing: ”Can you find a third person in our class who gets all the holanced at He Zhao's exercise book and found that he had just copied the question, then wrote very casually, in the right
”Didn't you find someone to do your homework for you?” Xie Yu put his own exercise book back in the desk drawer and asked, ”That's all he did for you?”
He Zhao said, ”I didn't contact hi me, I realized that aside from myself, there's no one in the world with such suave handwriting Look at the boldness of these strokes, these letter joins…”
Xie Yu shi+t all you want, it won't groers”
”Ding Lianghua, you do the sprint and the relay, all right? I've heard about your heroic exploits You're very explosive for a short distance… and then, the girls I'-jie, help irls' side”
During gy, Liu Cunhao, and the others sat on the quad in a circle Luo Wenqiang had put three pens in his pocket and now he pulled one out and handed it to Xu Qingqing ”And the class event is tug-of-war, so I'll find so-distance, that'll be Zhao-ge and Yu-ge… ah, where are they?”
At this point, Luo Wenqiang found that the two long-distance champions he had already picked out last ere both not present
Wan Da said, ”You only realized now that they're not here? They were called to the faculty office”
Liu Cunhao added: ”Those two long-distance runners got all thescratched the back of his head ”Ah? I was so excited after getting the notice about the sports event that I didn't notice…”
The two long-distance runners were currently suffering a fate worse than death in the faculty office
”The two of you, take your houre it out, then you can go to gy, then looked down and continued grading ho But there's one thing I have to compliment you on At least you don't copy, and you have a bottom line that you stick to”
He Zhao said, ”Thank you, thank you”
Wu Zheng hadn't iined He Zhao had such a thick skin, either His hand stilled on the ho you?!”
Xie Yu took the hoed He Zhao away He explained on behalf of his desk his dor said ”He's quite seriously ill”
There weren'thad gone to teach literature to the class next door and his desk was e's desk and did the questions, since it wasn't convenient to sit at other teachers' desks
The last few ti Sen's desk held several small potted plants, their individual naside to-do lists like the watering schedule He was clearly very attentive
He Zhao lifted his hand to one of the post-its and read out the name of the small succulent plant ”…Xiao Cui?”
Xie Yu: ”……”
