Chapter 2: The Mysterious Transfer Student 5
How annoying! Art class is the class I hate the most! Look at the brand new textbook on the table. Until now, I haven’t even opened it to read it!
"Today, we will continue with what we learned last time and learn how to make rubber stamps!" After settling Xia Youshu down, the teacher looked around with a smile, "Everyone should give full play to their imagination and hands-on ability, otherwise, you will fail!"
Oh my god! Failed!
She must be talking about me. I have never had any artistic talent since I was a child, and my hands-on ability is probably the same as that of the monkeys in the zoo. Although my good friend Lily is very good, I can't always be in the same group with her... Just like today, the teacher assigned the new classmate Xia Youshu to me, making him my partner and new deskmate.
I turned my head and saw Lily behind me looking at me with concern. I forced myself to curl my lips towards her and suddenly felt the phone in my pocket vibrate.
I took it out and looked at it. I saw a cartoon version of Hia Arthur sitting there arrogantly, saying sarcastically, "Hey, you big idiot, can you do something? He just transferred here, don't drag him down!"
"What the hell is it to you!" I glared at him fiercely and threw the phone roughly onto the table.
With a heartbroken expression, I looked at Xia Youshu who was slowly walking towards me...
Ah, what a handsome young man! Those pure purple eyes are so magical that they can draw people in... But I don’t know if he has any artistic talent. It would be terrible if he was implicated by me.
"Hello." He walked up to me and showed a hearty smile, "Nice to meet you again."
He, he still remembers me!
I couldn't help but get excited, curling up the corners of my mouth and showing the friendliest and cutest smile: "Hello! My name is Zhen...A-Chee!"
Oh my God! What have I done?
When I was introducing myself, I accidentally sneezed loudly, and even bumped my head into Xia Youshu's chest!
"Ha ha ha ha……"
That heartless guy Xia Arthur actually burst into laughter at the first moment, causing the surrounding students to look over.
"Zhencheng, your ringtone is so special!"
"Hehe...so funny, I want to try the next one later."
I was so ashamed that I just wanted to raise my head when I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my scalp.
"Don't move!" Xia Youshu's gentle voice came from above his head, "Your hairpin is caught on the button of my clothes."
Xia Youshu's strong chest was pressing against my forehead, his strong heartbeat was pounding, and my face quickly became hot.
Wow, how embarrassing!
"Sorry, sorry, I'll take it off right away !"
I frantically tried to pull off the damn cherry hairpin, but I was clumsy and couldn't pull it off for a long time. Finally, Xia Youshu patiently helped me untie it.
"Classmate, are you okay?"
I pressed my hair in frustration: "It's okay... I'm thick-skinned, nothing's wrong, my name is Zhencheng... But Xia Youshu, are you okay?"
A soft laugh came from above my head.
"Hello, Makoto-san."
As he spoke, Xia Youshu stretched out his white and slender hand, took out a blue plaid handkerchief from his pocket, and gently wiped my face. His movements were very gentle, and there was a warm smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. I could feel the heat from his fingers.
Wow! So handsome! So gentle, I am almost drowning in this gentleness.
At this moment, a discordant voice came from the phone.
That guy Xi Yasser said in a voice that only I could hear: "Silly woman, put away your embarrassing expression! It's disgusting!"
I reached out secretly, put the phone on the table back into my pocket, and raised my fist to him threateningly. But just as I did this, I heard a bolt from the blue.
"Okay, then please invite Zhencheng and Xia Youshu to demonstrate for everyone. Just carve the simplest carrot shape." The art teacher stared at me, "Zhencheng, you must perform well this time!"
Wuuuu…I really can’t be distracted in class. I don’t want to attract the teacher’s attention at all!
Half an hour later——
The teacher's face turned green and then purple, and the corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at the "work" we handed in - two of the ugliest square carrots in history.
"You two, Xia Youshu and Zhencheng, both got 0 points! Come to my office after class! This is outrageous!"
Damn Xia Arthur, he was actually laughing on the phone and imitating the teacher's speech badly. I turned my phone to silent mode in anger, and now the world is finally quiet.
After class, we were taken to the office to continue listening to the teacher’s “teachings”.
Many girls would pretend to pass by the office, secretly glance at Xia Youshu, and then gather together to chat. The noisy sound became louder and louder and gradually penetrated into my ears.
"Xia Youshu is so handsome! Although his style is different from that of Xi Yaser, he is still super handsome!"
"How can he compare with Xi Yaser? His Highness Xi Yaser is the perfect man in my heart! He can't even make a rubber stamp. Isn't that a very basic handicraft?"
"So, he's just the son of a nouveau riche. Xia Youshu is just good-looking..."
…
The more I listened, the angrier I became. I turned to Xia Youshu angrily and said, "They are going too far! Don't worry, Xia Arthur is not that good. He is just a bad guy!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the phone in my pocket started vibrating wildly, and my stomach was almost numb. This guy, Xi Yasser, not only has a bad temper, but is also a super stingy guy who cares about every penny.
Xia Youshu raised his beautiful eyebrows, as if he didn't hear what they said: "It's okay, I won't mind."
"You are so kind!" I was a little touched. He is such a good person...
"I am lucky to meet you." He paused, looked at my pocket and said, "Zhencheng, your phone seems to be vibrating very hard. Someone wants to talk to you urgently, right?"
"It's okay! Don't worry about it!" I waved my hands impatiently.
I knew without thinking that it must be that stingy guy Xia Arthur was angry because he was unhappy with me saying bad things about him.
