Little Sweetheart

Zheng Peipei was reading with a flushed face, her heart pounding with excitement. Suddenly, a voice came from behind, startling her. She quickly covered the book, her body trembling, and looked up.

Lu Jiaye was sitting in Gu Siyi's seat, arms crossed, winking suggestively. "What kind of dirty book is that? Let me have a look."

Zheng Peipei's face turned red, and she was about to explode. She wanted to curse him to death, but considering her image, she lowered her voice and gritted her teeth. "Dirty what! This is a physiological need! You understand physiological need?"

"Oh…" Lu Jiaye nodded, looking down, and said meaningfully, "For clapping cheeks, it's indeed very necessary."

"… I should just beat you to death!" Zheng Peipei couldn't bear it anymore. She stuffed the comic book into her desk, rolled up the English book on the table, and threw it at him.

"Hey, we're discussing physiological needs, why are you hitting me…" Lu Jiaye was chased by Zheng Peipei and had to flee. "Auntie, can you control your temper?"

"My temper is very good!!!" Zheng Peipei shouted angrily.

The classmates all looked sideways. In the past, they would have sweated for Lu Jiaye, but now they were all laughing and watching the little tiger chase the little wolfdog. The world war that these two staged every other day had become a regular after-school entertainment program for everyone.

"Other people are dating, all lovey-dovey, why is it like this when it comes to them?" Someone wondered.

"Don't you understand? This is how they talk, by hitting and scolding."

"I see, I see!"

Su Han heard the two people in front of him talking, and kicked their stools. The two boys looked back in astonishment, and he smiled. "Classmates, please don't talk." Although his face was smiling, there was no smile in his eyes, and his gentle and harmless face was chilling.

The two immediately fell silent.

While Lu Jiaye and Zheng Peipei were chasing and fighting, Xia Zhijun was explaining a problem to Gu Siyi. Seeing Gu Siyi frowning, he thought it was because those two were too noisy. How could she think in such a noisy environment?

Lu Jiaye dodged, and Zheng Peipei bumped into Xia Zhijun's desk. Xia Zhijun reacted quickly and held his cup. Lu Jiaye went around their back row and bumped into Gu Siyi's back. Gu Siyi's pen tip paused and moved forward.

Xia Zhijun couldn't bear it anymore. He suddenly stood up, grabbed Lu Jiaye by the collar, restrained him like an eagle catching a chick, and whispered, "Stop messing around."

Zheng Peipei was at Zhou Xiao's empty seat, taking the opportunity to reach out and hit him. She hit him several times in a row, but lost her balance and fell forward. Su Han hurriedly supported Zheng Peipei.

She fell forward due to inertia, and Su Han's arms timely supported both sides of the table, stabilizing the two of them.

Zheng Peipei held Su Han's shoulder, and after she stabilized, she realized that the two were very close, and his beautiful eyebrows were close at hand. The end of his eyes were slightly upturned, and his pupils were dark and clear, with a gentle glimmer.

And he seemed to be in shock, staring blankly at her, both of them blushing a little at the same time.

Gu Siyi looked up, witnessed this scene, and was the first to recover. She asked, "Are you okay? Did you bump into anything?"

Zheng Peipei stood up in a panic, the ferocious tigress from a moment ago turned into a little rabbit, and whispered, "It's okay, it's okay…"

She glared at Lu Jiaye, "Next time I'll deal with you!" Then she returned to her seat.

Xia Zhijun breathed a sigh of relief, "It's finally quiet."

He took the pen from Gu Siyi's hand, drew the next step in the problem-solving steps, and said, "You made a mistake from here…"

"Ah? I made a mistake here?" Gu Siyi looked bewildered.

"Look closely, did you use speed and acceleration incorrectly?"

"Ah…" Gu Siyi scratched her head in frustration, "Shouldn't I use acceleration to calculate here?"

Lan Xia Qiu was in the penultimate row of the first group, talking to a class representative. She glanced over and saw the question Gu Siyi was doing, and her eyes showed contempt and disdain. Such a simple question, she still had to ask… How bad her studies must be, and she usually pretended to be a top student. However, the mid-term exam is coming soon, and her true level will soon be revealed.

.

For Gu Siyi, the mid-term exam was the sword of Damocles hanging over her head.

For this reason, she really changed her style from junior high school, worked hard and studied hard and dared not slack off. However, her foundation, compared with the students in these key schools, is not a little bit worse, but a lot worse.

Sometimes she can understand the examples given by the teacher, but when the teacher gives questions for everyone to do, she is dumbfounded when she sees the questions. She knows every word, but together they are like a book from heaven, and the difficulty level has skyrocketed…

Seeing everyone writing so fast, she deeply doubted whether everyone was listening to the same class.

When she was frustrated, she also wanted to be like Zheng Peipei, just give up and do whatever.

However, when she thought of her parents' expectations… well, now she thought more about Xia Zhijun's grades. When she thought of his first place in the city, and his academic aura, she felt ashamed and unwilling to fall behind.

If she becomes degenerate, will he look down on her in the future?

After going back and forth a thousand times, she still gritted her teeth and braced herself. It doesn't matter if it takes half an hour to do a question that others can do in a few minutes. If the foundation is poor, work hard to make up for it. There are still three years, even a salted fish can turn over!

Gu Siyi paid the most attention to English, after all, she was the English class representative, and this subject was not so difficult. Now, in addition to reading with Xia Zhijun, she would also find ways to improve her spoken English, and often listened to BBC news after class. There is an English corner in the school, open from 7:00 to 9:00 every night. Gu Siyi went there a few times when she had time and felt it was not bad, so she set herself a plan to go twice a week.

When she went to the English corner again, Gu Siyi met Lu Ming.

She wanted to pretend that she didn't see him, but Lu Ming took the initiative to come over and talk to her, so she could only deal with it.

Unexpectedly, Lu Ming's spoken English was very good. Although he couldn't compare to Xia Zhijun's demeanor and grace in his speech, he was fluent, natural, and authentic, just like communicating with foreign students.

After talking for twenty minutes, Gu Siyi was tired. Most of the time, he was asking and she was answering, and his questions basically revolved around her interests and hobbies. She found an excuse to end the conversation.

Lu Ming left the English corner with Gu Siyi. After coming out, he smiled and said, "I didn't expect to see you here, do you come here often?"

"Occasionally…" She didn't want to run into him here often.

Gu Siyi's view of Lu Ming was very complicated. After all, the first impression was very bad, but then he saved her again… She has always been clear about love and hate, and she was a little confused by this conflict.

She still had to maintain politeness on the surface, Gu Siyi greeted him, "I'm going back to the dormitory, see you later."

Lu Ming watched Gu Siyi walk away.

He sat down on the steps alone, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one for himself, and stood up.

While playing with his mobile phone, he opened a dialog box on WeChat, which was full of photos of Gu Siyi.

Some were photos of Gu Siyi posted on Moments and QQ space, and some were candid photos of her daily life. Lu Ming's eyes fell on the photo of Gu Siyi and Xia Zhijun, a haze flashed in his eyes, he took a deep breath of cigarette, as if he had figured out something, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

It doesn't matter, there is still a long way to go. This is just the beginning.

Gu Siyi returned to the dormitory, and after washing up, she started to do practice problems non-stop.

Zheng Peipei was playing games in bed, and greeted Gu Siyi, "Brother Yi, let's play together."

Gu Siyi refused without hesitation, "I haven't finished my homework."

"Hey…" Zheng Peipei sighed faintly, "There is so much homework every day, enough to kill someone, how can I finish it…"

"We can't finish it because we are too slow." Gu Siyi was very good at finding problems from herself.

Zheng Peipei continued to complain: "I don't understand, why did my mother have to transfer me here to study? The gap is too big, I can't understand it in class, I'm exhausted… It's not as good as before, I just messed around and got an average grade in the class…"

Gu Siyi persuaded: "Don't be so depressed, it's good to have some pursuits, right?"

Although she also felt very strenuous, she didn't regret coming here to study.

"Come on, I'm rooting for you, Brother Yi!"

"…"

"I'm going to ask that bastard Lu Jiaye to play together, I won't disturb you anymore, you study hard."

Since Zheng Peipei started playing games with Lu Jiaye in City A, she found that playing with him was not bad. Not only is he skilled, but he also has a good sense of cooperation. The most important thing is that whoever dares to trash talk in the game, Lu Jiaye will help to trash talk back in minutes. In the past, when she was sprayed by others, she was too busy playing to reply, so she could only hold back her anger. Since she brought Lu Penzi, her gaming life was like a blessing. The two of them ran rampant in the game, rising all the way, and had already been promoted to the diamond rank.

Zheng Peipei sent a WeChat message to Lu Jiaye.

Peipei: "Come on, let's play."

Master Lu is not happy: "Play chicken."

Peipei: "Stop playing chicken, let's play together, let's make trouble."

Master Lu is not happy: "You hit me yesterday, this old man also has a temper!"

Peipei: "……………"

Master Lu is not happy: "[Arrogant] [Arrogant]"

Zheng Peipei didn't bother to talk to him, and went to play by herself.

Unexpectedly, after the game started, WeChat messages kept popping up, all from Lu Jiaye.

This constant stream of messages greatly affected her performance. Zheng Peipei was very depressed, and complained while playing, "What are you sending, it's annoying."

This round ended in failure, and she angrily went back to WeChat and clicked on the dialog box of Lu Jiaye.

"You beg me, I can consider taking you to play."

"Where are you?"

"Where did you die? Did you go play by yourself?"

"I'm so! Zheng Peipei, you will definitely lose without me!"

"Lose to death! Lose to death! Lose to death!"

"Little rookie, how does it feel to be completely abused by the opponent?"

Zheng Peipei almost fainted when she saw this series of nonsense.

Taking a deep breath, she directly blocked him and entered the game again.

As soon as she entered, Lu Jiaye sent a game invitation. After struggling for a few seconds, she accepted it. She was really tortured just now, and she wanted to turn over and sing.

After winning several games in a row, Zheng Peipei was immersed in the deep joy, and the previous grievances disappeared like smoke.

Lu Jiaye said: "Don't forget to release your good brother from the blacklist later."

Zheng Peipei chuckled and said, "Don't worry, let's get one more star."

Late at night, one of them crawled out of the mountain of books and the other crawled out of the big pit of the game, yawned together, and ended this tiring day.

During the break the next day, Zhou Xiao, the sports committee member, asked Gu Siyi and the others, "The school is about to hold the autumn sports meeting, do you have any events you want to participate in? We need to sign up and count the number of people now."

Zheng Peipei asked, "What events are there?"

Zhou Xiao said: "It's just short-distance running, long-distance running, relay races, rope skipping, high jump, long jump, shot put, tug-of-war…"

Gu Siyi said without thinking, "I'll participate in the 100-meter sprint, 1,500-meter long-distance race, and relay race."

"As expected of the class monitor, a running expert!" Lu Jiaye exclaimed after hearing this.

Zheng Peipei waved her hand boldly and said, "I'll participate in all the events that Siyi signed up for."

Lu Jiaye: "This is the first time I've seen someone sign up like this…"

Zheng Peipei rolled her eyes lightly, "Right? Have you gained some knowledge?"

"Okay, I'll write it down for you first." Zhou Xiao said, and asked Xiang Li and Zhang Xinyi, "What about you?"

"We are cheerleaders." Xiang Li smiled, and Zhang Xinyi nodded in agreement.

These two are not very good, they have self-knowledge, so they won't hold back the class.

While these people were discussing, Xia Zhijun, who was originally lazy, suddenly stood up and walked towards the front row.

He walked to Chen Xu, a boy in the third row, looked down at him, and said coldly, "Take out your phone."

"What… what's wrong…" The boy stammered a little.

"Take it out." Xia Zhijun's voice was cold, and his gloomy face showed an extremely unpleasant aura.

The class fell silent, and everyone looked over there, puzzled.

Under pressure, the boy reluctantly took out his phone.

"Open it." He ordered coldly.

After the phone was unlocked, he took it, opened the phone album, and saw dozens or hundreds of photos of Gu Siyi, his face became more and more ugly.

When he looked at the boy again, the boy was so frightened by his cold eyes that he was at a loss.

Xia Zhijun deleted all the photos, threw the phone out violently, the phone hit the steps of the podium and rolled down, the screen cracked with a few crisp sounds, Xia Zhijun stepped forward and stepped on it again.

The phone turned into a pile of debris…

When he looked at the boy with sharp eyes again, the boy apologized desperately, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry… I won't do it again… I swear I won't do it again…"

Everyone in the class knew that Xia Zhijun and Gu Siyi had an extraordinary relationship. He took a bunch of photos of Gu Siyi and was caught by Xia Zhijun, so he felt very guilty.

Xia Zhijun walked up to him, his expression neither happy nor angry, which looked very scary. He said word by word in a low voice: "Next time, it won't be just throwing your phone."

After giving him a warning look, Xia Zhijun returned to his seat.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Zheng Peipei asked, bewildered.

Gu Siyi was also puzzled, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Xia Zhijun said lightly.

He didn't want Gu Siyi to know that she was being photographed, so as not to affect her mood.

He was already trying his best to restrain himself from hitting that person.

"Is it really okay?" Zheng Peipei whispered in Gu Siyi's ear, "Did you see his expression just now? It's scary."

Of course Gu Siyi saw it, "But he doesn't want to talk about it…"

"Aren't you curious? Why did he suddenly go over and smash someone's phone?"

"Curious…but he doesn't want to say it, so let's not force him."

Taking advantage of the few minutes before class, Gu Siyi got up to get some water. When she walked to Xia Zhijun's desk, she took his cup by the way.

After receiving two cups of hot water, she put his cup on his desk, put her own cup away, then took out her mobile phone and buried her head in sending him a WeChat message.

Gu Ming Siyi: "Boss, have a sip of hot water to calm down."

X: "."

Gu Siyi turned her head and saw Xia Zhijun picking up the cup and taking a slow sip of water.

She couldn't help but smile, and buried her head in sending messages again.

Gu Ming Siyi: "So good~"

X: "."

Gu Siyi covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.

She knew that he had a reply obsessive-compulsive disorder, and when he didn't know what to reply, he would use a full stop. At this time, he replied with a full stop, as if acquiescing that he was very good. The more Gu Siyi looked at it, the happier she felt, and the smile on the corner of her mouth couldn't help but widen.

It wasn't until the class bell rang that she put her phone in the drawer and sat up straight.

As soon as she turned her head, she accidentally met Xia Zhijun's gaze, and the smile on the corner of her mouth hadn't had time to withdraw.

"…" He saw the two lovely dimples and the curved eyes, and there seemed to be a little jump in his eyes.

Xia Zhijun's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but let out a low laugh. In an instant, all the unhappiness was healed.

After school, Chen Xu, whose mobile phone was smashed, went to the shopping mall to buy a new one, and Lu Ming accompanied him, generously swiping his card to pay.

Chen Xu said: "I can't take pictures of Gu Siyi anymore, you know, Xia Zhijun can't be messed with."

"I'm not talking about you, you can be discovered for such a trivial matter…" Lu Ming chuckled lightly.

Chen Xu: "Do you know how much Xia Zhijun pays attention to Gu Siyi? Every time I look at Gu Siyi, Xia Zhijun is watching! If I take pictures like this, I will be found sooner or later!"

"Okay, okay, I won't let you take pictures anymore, look at how scared you are… I'll treat you to a good meal tonight." Lu Ming patted Chen Xu's shoulder to comfort him. After all, he is his eyeliner in Class Six and cannot be easily pulled out.

"Seriously, you should give up on Gu Siyi, Xia Zhijun is watching her too closely, even the boys in our class have no chance. Except for Xia Zhijun's buddies, other boys are very difficult to get close to."

"Hehe…" Lu Ming smiled lazily, his smile tinged with coldness.

"Even if I hit a wall, I won't turn back." Lu Ming crushed the cigarette in the ashtray, "Except for her, I don't like anyone now."

Chen Xu was speechless. After all, she is the class flower of their class, her appearance is there, she is really good-looking.

The last class on Friday was over, Zheng Peipei shouted long live freedom, and Lu Jiaye actively organized weekend activities.

Gu Siyi was thinking about how to arrange the time, Xia Zhijun asked: "Are you going home this weekend?"
