Chapter 1: The Enchanting Emperor Hideki 2
The hair on my neck stood up and I quickly grabbed his arm and huddled next to him.
But he suddenly burst into laughter: "Haha, Yaya, you are so cute... You don't really believe it, do you?"
Eh? You lied to me?
Hideki pinched my cheeks again, shook them a few times, and then let go: "You are such a live treasure, Yaya!"
"Hideki Oda, you big bad guy, how could you lie to me!" I came to my senses then, immediately took a few steps back, and said angrily with my hands on my hips.
"Who made you so cute? Look...you're puffy again!" Hideki said, poking my puffy cheeks with his slender fingers.
Hate it, how can this be!
"Stop touching me..." I waved my hands wildly in protest.
“Wuwuwu…”
what sound?
I glared at Hideki: This bad guy wants to cheat me again, I won’t be fooled!
“Wuwuwu…”
It's strange, but Hideki clearly didn't say anything!
Could it be that...
"Wow—there really is a ghost!"
I grabbed Hideki's hand and ran forward in panic, afraid that if I was a second late, I would be entangled by the voice behind me.
"YaYa, this way, the school gate is this way--" Hideki told me the correct direction while running.
I tried hard to move my short legs, and soon I was out of breath.
However, Hideki still looked calm and composed, not at all flustered, and even his steps were so brisk as if he was taking a walk in his own yard.
Ah, being tall has its advantages. Once again, I complain about my petite stature.
Finally I reached the school gate, and seeing the lights coming out of the reception room, I felt a little relieved. I quickly let go of Hideki's hand, held onto the electric pole next to the school gate, and panted.
Hideki stood opposite me with his arms folded across his chest and laughed again.
What's so funny? Is it funny to be afraid of ghosts? Is it funny to be panting like this?
snort!
“Duck…”
"What...what?" What does he want to do again?
"The last school bus is about to leave!" Hideki smiled and stretched out his hand, casually pointing to the school bus stop not far away.
I saw the school bus slowly sliding out of the stop and moving forward.
"Wow, master, wait for me - there are still people who haven't got on the bus!" I didn't care that my legs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, and immediately waved my hands and ran forward quickly.
On the way, I almost fell down because I was rushing too fast.
When I finally stood firm, that bad guy Xiushu actually started laughing again.
Fortunately, the driver was kind and immediately stepped on the brakes when he heard my call.
The car door opened, and I was about to get in when Hideki behind me called out again: "Duck Duck—"
"Huh?" I stopped and looked sideways at him in confusion.
"After school starts, I'll come find you when I have time."
The expression on Hideki's face was so gentle. I nodded and was about to turn around when his smile widened again and he said briskly, "And... that was just a cat!"
After saying that, without waiting for my reaction, he turned around, waved with his back to me, and walked into the school.
"Just a cat"?
What is "just a cat"?
Even as the school bus started moving quickly, I was still wondering what this incoherent sentence meant.
Then... a flash of inspiration came to me and I suddenly understood!
He was talking about the "wooo" sound we heard earlier. He said that "wooo" sound was just a cat's meow!
Ahhh, this big bad guy!
He knew it was a cat's meow, but he didn't tell me. I was so scared and dragged him so far. My legs are still weak now.
During the break, in the classroom of Huanghua College, I lay on the table in a daze...
Before I knew it, I had been in Huanghua College for almost half a month.
Huanghua College is indeed a well-known institution. Even the teachers' teaching methods are different. There will be some expansion in the knowledge points, allowing us to improve our learning as much as possible.
Because I was worried that I would fall behind other students, I had to continue to review desperately after returning to the apartment every day, even though my grades were not very good to begin with.
Time passed by unknowingly while I was busy.
That big liar Hideki clearly said he would come to see me after school started, but I haven’t seen even a trace of him until now.
Could it be that he had forgotten to say this a long time ago?
Maybe it was because Xiu Shu was the first person I met at Huanghua College, so I wanted to meet him. I originally wanted to find him, but I only knew that he was a third-year student, but I didn't know which class he was in.
"Well, I should go and ask anyway!" I encouraged myself in my heart.
Thinking of seeing Hideki again, I couldn't help but feel shy and quickly buried my face in my arms...
There is a twenty-minute break after the second class, which is plenty of time.
After finally preparing myself mentally, I stretched, took a deep breath, and got up to go out.
As I reached the classroom door, many classmates ran past me. I was pushed and almost fell.
At this moment, screams could be heard from the corridor outside.
"Wow, it's Hideki, Hideki is here..."
"Wow, Hideki-senpai, look over here..."
"Hideki, Hideki..."
The sound of calls gradually returning from chaos to order echoed in the teaching building...
The celebrity concerts we usually have are probably just like this!
It's just... Hideki? Is this the Hideki I know?
The entire corridor was packed with girls, each holding an exquisite gift box in their hands, their faces flushed with excitement, and they were shouting at the top of their lungs.
The teaching building is designed in a U-shape, so I can see movements in different directions. I couldn't help but look in the direction where everyone was running.
At this moment, the focus of everyone's attention is on the corridor on the higher floor opposite.
The young man's tall and strong body was leaning against the corridor, his half-long black hair fluttering in the wind, his high nose bridge and plump lips outlined his handsome profile, his eyebrows were thick and straight, and inserted horizontally into his temples.
At this moment, he had a gentle smile on his face and an indescribable elegance emanated from his whole body.
There was a long line in front of him, with girls holding their carefully prepared gifts, patiently waiting for him to accept them. He looked intently at every girl who passed by him, politely took the gifts they gave him, hugged them, and then... handed them to the person behind him.
The people behind him each had a pile of gifts in their arms, and the pile was still growing higher...
It’s really Hideki, surrounded by a bunch of beautiful girls, the familiar yet unfamiliar Oda Hideki!
Am I seeing things? The guy who spoke to me rudely and teased me whenever he got the chance, turned out to be so elegant and charming!
"Oshima-san, that's senior Hideki. Isn't he handsome? He is my favorite senior!" A classmate suddenly said in my ear.
"Among the Phoenix Emperors in our Huanghua Academy, Senior Hideki is the most popular one. Classmate Yashima must have heard of him a long time ago!" another classmate said nonchalantly.
"Emperor Feng?" This is the first time I have heard this term.
"Yes, yes, Senior Xiushu is the Crazy Emperor among the Phoenix Emperors of Huanghua College!" The classmates' eyes were shining with excitement.
"Our school's characteristics are not only its admission rate and departmental divisions, but also student autonomy, which other schools can't even dream of."
"Yes, from kindergarten to university, there are branches all over the world, but these are nothing - the college will also select special students to cultivate the backbone of various fields in the future!"
"Uh... is it the same as the student union?"
I was dizzy after hearing this and asked the question stupidly, but my eyes couldn't help but look towards the charming figure standing out from the crowd above me.
"In fact, the difference is quite big, because no one knows exactly how many people are Phoenix Emperors. The school arranges a special activity area for them, which is called the Imperial City. Ordinary students are not allowed to enter that place!"
After these two enthusiastic classmates talked to me for a long time, I finally had a general understanding of the "Phoenix Emperor" they mentioned.
Huanghua College is a well-known private college, and the purpose of establishing this college is to cultivate outstanding talents for various industries. Different from ordinary colleges, Huanghua College provides targeted and special training for outstanding students.
Only one out of a thousand students at Phoenix Academy can be accepted into the "Emperor City" and become a Phoenix Emperor. Each Phoenix Emperor has his or her own area of expertise, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the best in their field. And each Phoenix Emperor has a special title to distinguish one from another. For example, Hideki is the "Crazy Emperor", and there are also "Dark Emperor" and "Elegant Emperor"...
"Most people who become Phoenix Emperors will not make it public, because Phoenix Emperor is a symbol of supreme strength, so once they are public, they will inevitably be surrounded by fans. However... although I don't know who the others are, our most lovely Hideki is an exception. He is the emperor who cares least about publicizing his identity!"
The moment the topic turned back to Hideki, the classmates' faces once again showed the dreamy expressions of young girls.
"NO, NO," someone shook her finger with an expression that said "I know a lot, just ask me." However, before anyone could ask, she couldn't help but start talking.
"Not only does he not care about revealing his identity, he is also the most approachable emperor - unlike those in the art department and the rumored 'Dark Emperor' and 'Light Emperor', he will not avoid fans, and if someone wants to give him a gift or express their love... he will accept it!"
"I can't stand it. Although I heard that he is scary when he gets angry, he is really a gentleman to girls!" said the classmate, and couldn't help but hold up his face and look at her with starry eyes.
“Is that so?”
Is this really talking about the Hideki I know?
Moreover, accepting gifts and love confessions from everyone cannot be called "approachable" at all, but rather "flirtatious"!
Maybe my questioning expression made my classmate misunderstand something, and she suddenly acted as if she suddenly realized something: "Oh, that's right, Oshima-san was admitted from another school, so he didn't know how popular Hideki was with girls! Our school has a tradition of giving the second button of your school uniform to your crush at graduation. When Hideki was in junior high school, he got the buttons of almost 90% of the girls in the entire junior high school department. If it weren't for the appearance of several other emperors now, he would probably be even more popular when he graduates from high school!"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel depressed. Come to think of it, this guy is really a charmer!
"Speaking of which, Hideki-senpai can easily win the hearts of others!"
"That's right, as long as I can be with Senior Hideki, I'm willing to do anything!"
The classmates who were so excited that they held each other's hands and jumped and shouted, were completely unfamiliar to me before, but when they talked about Oda Hideki, it seemed as if we suddenly had a common language.
"...occupy your heart?"
Indeed, for such an outstanding person like him, it is easy for him to win other people's hearts!
However, looking at Hideki from afar at this moment, I don’t know why, but I feel that he is so dazzling that it seems unreal...
