Chapter 37 (2/2)
”Are s? This is a Haworthia cooperi, isn't it?” He Zhao rested his forearms on his exercise book; clearly he was in no mood to do the questions ”He's a literature teacher after all Xiao Cui?”
Xie Yu glanced up Under the glass pane covering Tang Sen's desk were ht over the years, the dates ranging from the 00s in a neat row all the way up to last year
”What are you looking at?” He Zhao asked
Xie Yu was about to say he was looking for last year's graduating class's photos, then figured this would be a silly thing to say, and decided to say nothing and keep doing the homework instead
The office desk separated the for a while more, then stealthily slid his stool over little by little, only stopping when he was right next to Xie Yu He poked his desket the question Old Wu was explaining just now?”
Xie Yu gripped his own pen and asked, ”What do you think?”
”I think I got it,” He Zhao said ”I think I really got it this ti walked theh it, from the structure to the individual steps, and they would have had to be idiots to still not get it
Fortunately, this time when He Zhao said he understood, he really had understood Most likely, he just really wanted to go to gyence took a temporary leap Xie Yu also relaxed his expectations of hied to work the questions out
”They're here, they're here Gy distance runners are here” Wan Da's eyes were sharp and caught sight of He Zhao and Xie Yu froe—no, our class—are here”
”What hopes of the village?” He Zhao walked over and saw Class 23 all sitting on the quad in a big and neat circle He also sat down and tapped the floor ”Old Xie, sit”
”The long distance event! Three thousand meters¹ No one in class wants to run it”
”Put it down” He Zhao waved a hand generously ”My na”
Wan Da: ”I then looked at Xie Yu, who said with indifference, ”Fine”
The word 'fine' was thehad ever heard come out of Xie Yu's ht, then I' distance, and then… let me see Push-ups? Can you do push-ups?”
The sports meet spanned two days, which meant there were no classes for those two days
Although no one was that enthusiastic about sports, the two days of no classes were very attractive And even if they didn't step onto the court, everyone wanted to have a share in it
”The class next door got a set of class t-shi+rts Should we get a set, too?” Xu Qingqing was rather attentive to dress ”We can lose in anything else but we can't lose in uy fro Do we have to find soot weirder and weirder
By the ti, they still hadn't reached any sort of conclusion
The student on duty returned the gy was in charge of cleaning up the court The circle of the class 23 students had dispersed, leaving only stragglers behind
Wan Da went over to He Zhao and whispered, ”Actually, ere talking about crossdressing just now, the first person I thought of was Yu-ge”
He Zhao: ”If you want to die, I can see you off”
”No, really With Yu-ge's looks—I'irly at all, he's very manly…” Wan Da searched his entire vocabulary and couldn't co-jie and I think so Do you think Yu-ge will agree?”
”You're really going to die”
He Zhao continued, ”And you're going to leave this world at a speed you can't even iot wind of this news she was a little regretful, but then she had an epiphany and thought of a new idea ”Since we can't win the most beautiful in the year award, then weBro, like a Golden Barbie…” ²
Luo Wenqiang felt a chill wind at his back
And then countless pairs of eyes turned to stare at hi Bro discussion He had gone outside to take a call and by the ti on the floor of the classroo ”I don't want to, I refuse—why must you all do this to me?!”
”Your muscles are very sexy,” Wan Da comforted hihing so hard he couldn't sit up straight He waved to Xie Yu, then leant close and said, ”Our class rep, in girls' clothes Scary or not?”
”Are wea horror film?”
He Zhao said, ”Yeah”
Then He Zhao continued, ”Have you worn a skirt before?”
Sos were better now that his looks had h he had his hair cut short,one idiot airl' and so their friendshi+p had taken many more years than it otherould have to solidify Now, they only rarely met
Zhou Dalei had been very troubled, too He had to adht
Madaer Her son was soft and cute and pretty, so she found it fun to cajole hi skirts Now, at home, there were several photos of his dark history that he'd never be able to erase
Wan Da was still trying to coym rep when he heard a crash in the back of the classroom He looked up and saw that for soain and even overturned their chairs
Liu Cunhao couldn't help sighing as he looked on ”They're doing it again? If a day goes by where they don't do so”
”Big bro, I'ht?” He Zhao cajoled as he ad oil on the fire with his own hands ”But Old Xie doth protest too much, methinks Have you really worn a skirt before?”
Xie Yu had been talking with his fists the whole time He Zhao couldn't hold his own, and he didn't dare retaliate, so now he leaned backward and clutched his sto, ” Ah, that hurts”
Due to He Zhao's iht was that he was putting on an act again And a very exaggerated one, at that
But Xie Yu still took two steps forward, not knohy ”Where does it hurt?”
He Zhao's h and he didn't knohat to say His le second and finally his hand stopped on his chest ”Here Maybe it's internal injuries”
He only needed to open his mouth to cause internal injuries Truly ih his shi+rt's fabric ”Here?”
He Zhao looked down at Xie Yu's hand resting on his chest and suddenly felt a little dazed ”Ah, yeah”
That strange and confusing thought didn't stay very long He saw Xie Yu twist his wrist and said, ”daive me internal injuries…”
