Chapter 1: Damn Youth
“We’re going to be late!”
On the bus, Linzhou slowly opened his eyes, looked at the girl in front of him, and tried hard to think about the meaning of her words.
He worked on the storyboard all night last night and his mind is like a mess.
But... the girl in front of me is quite... quite cute?
She was less than 150cm tall, had short hair, wore a black and white school uniform, and had delicate features. If it weren't for the obvious anxious look on her face, Linzhou would definitely reach out and pinch her.
Girls in anime are just like this.
Subconsciously, Linzhou uttered that famous line .
"Come be my number one heroine!"
"Fuck your grandma, there are still 10 minutes left before the bell rings. I don't want to be late just after transferring to another school!"
The girl was anxious, so she reached out and grabbed Linzhou's backpack strap and was about to go to the back door of the car. The driver's voice came from the loudspeaker at the right time.
"Are you going down or not? If you're not going down, just go ahead..."
The girl almost dragged Linzhou to the bus stop by force, and then ran away.
By the time I reacted, the other person was already more than ten meters away.
Just like in an old idol drama, Linzhou put his hands around his mouth and shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Wow! What's your name?"
"Your father's name is Jiang Xiyue!!!"
Linzhou, standing at the bus stop, heard the sound of the wind.
Very cute, but mixed with anger, reluctance, and... a crackling feeling...
In short, in Linzhou's eyes, that lovely girl has become a mobile gas tank, painted in black and white.
At this time, he had already realized that he was going to be late.
It doesn’t matter, we will all die sooner or later.
The gas tank named Jiang Xiyue is also going to die...
How could the transfer student know that the dean of studies was already squatting at the door? If he went over now, he would just be seeing him off.
Rather than this, it’s better to be a well-fed ghost.
Thinking of this, Linzhou turned and looked at the stall not far away, as if he saw his beloved.
"Auntie, I want a pancake with bacon and chicken fillet, and a soy milk, and more chili for the pancake."
The school is about one kilometer away from the bus stop, and it can actually be reached by just turning a corner.
After stuffing his breakfast into his schoolbag, Linzhou walked slowly along the road in a very good mood. But before he had gone far, he saw several students standing in a row at the school gate.
Looking at the flower bed next to him, Linzhou reached in and grabbed a handful of mud, rubbed it on his knees a few times, and immediately ran at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
…
As expected, he was stopped at the door by the dean of studies.
The principal was a math teacher for many years and started to go bald before he was fifty.
So without looking up, Linzhou could imagine the vibrant and flourishing world above the director's head...
At this moment, he had no time to complain about the greasy dean, so he could only cover up the matter of being late.
Then, the dean saw Linzhou holding his knees with his hands, gasping for breath.
"Explain after you've caught your breath. There's no rush."
Hearing this, Linzhou was no longer in a hurry. He found a small corner and squatted there casually, his eyes fixed on Jiang Xiyue.
The other party didn't react at all, just looked up at the sky with a look of dissatisfaction.
Needless to say, Linzhou also knew what the other party was thinking.
...If I hadn't told that idiot to get off the bus, there's no way I'd be late, right?!
Indeed, Jiang Xiyue thought so, but she had more important things to do at the moment, how to get through it...
I was late on the first day of transferring to another school, and then my parents were called in for a talk. And then, send it!
This is not the future she wants.
At this time, she also saw the dean walking up to Linzhou.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
The director's voice was very high, and all the late students standing at the door looked over there.
Apparently, they had just answered the director's questions.
After organizing his words in his mind, Linzhou stood up and bowed directly.
"I'm sorry, Director. I went to the market with my father to buy vegetables last night. I slept a little late and fell on the way here. But I accept the punishment and will write a self-review of any length..."
The director's face turned black, but in his opinion, no student would dare to tell such a lie, so he looked down.
There was mud all over the student's pants, probably from the fall he had just made.
So the director bent down slightly and asked in a low voice.
"Are you okay? If you're okay, go to the hospital first."
"No... no need, Director. I'll just go to the infirmary and apply some safflower oil. I can also memorize a few words during the morning reading."
Linzhou looked like a good student, and the expression on his face was probably...
Even if knives rain from the sky, it can’t affect my studies.
The director seemed to be moved by the sincerity and turned to look at Jiang Xiyue. "The transfer student over there, you accompany this boy to the infirmary. You don't need to make a self-criticism."
Jiang Xiyue was confused, but still reached out to hold Linzhou's arm and walked towards the teaching building.
The dean put his hands behind his back, looked at Linzhou's limping back, sighed helplessly, and then turned his attention to the remaining students.
"What are you looking at? Learn from their attitude towards learning and see how much they love learning."
Everyone lowered their heads...letting the director speak...
…
As soon as he entered the teaching building, Lin Zhou seemed like a different person, striding towards the infirmary.
Jiang Xiyue was stunned.
This person seemed like he had a broken leg just now, how come he is... suddenly full of energy?
Although I don’t know what to do, it’s always right to listen to the director.
When she entered the infirmary, Lin Zhou was already leaning back in his chair, eating his breakfast...
If she still doesn't know what's going on at this point, she would be a fool.
"How could you be like this?"
"My name is Linzhou. Would you like to have some scallion pancake? It's so delicious." Linzhou raised his head and looked at the little guy in front of him with a smile on his face.
After all, anyone would feel great if they could escape the 1,500-word check.
"No... I mean, it's not okay for you to use the director's sympathy to do bad things." Jiang Xiyue was also a little helpless. Why didn't the boy in front of her play according to the normal routine of high school boys?
Linzhou took a big sip of soy milk and pursed his lips.
"I helped you escape the 1,500-word inspection, but you don't even bother to thank me as your father. You even want to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at me, right?"
Linzhou thought that there was nothing wrong in calling himself father. After all, the voice coming with the wind was so powerful.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiyue got furious.
"You're lying and you still think you're right? If I wasn't unfamiliar with the place, I'd have slapped your head."
After checking his watch, Linzhou Mantiaosili took another bite of his scallion pancake before standing up and speaking with a colonel's accent.
"Transfer student, you have three minutes to get to the classroom. If you're late, you don't want to be remembered by your homeroom teacher, right?"
