Chapter 7: Love Rival, Love Rival! three
An Yixuan finished playing ball quickly, but I was completely immersed in my own world of fantasy and did not bring him water or towel as usual. I only reacted when he walked to my side.
An Yixuan pinched my face again, and swallowed what he wanted to say. He just smiled and said, "Come on, I'll take you to eat braised pork ribs."
I became excited when I heard about braised spareribs. I love spareribs, especially braised ones. As a carnivore, I think there is nothing happier than eating spareribs! So I threw away those messy thoughts and followed An Yixuan to the cafeteria.
"Please wait for me for a moment. I sweated too much while playing ball. I'm going to wash my face and hands." An Yixuan suddenly stopped and said.
Only then did I realize that An Yixuan's head and face were covered in sweat, and I couldn't help but blame myself for being careless: "Oh, I should have washed it just now, I'm not in a hurry to eat."
"Wait for me for a moment, don't walk around." An Yixuan said something to me before walking away.
I thought, I am not a three-year-old child, why should I worry so much? So I found a cool place to stand and wait for An Yixuan. Unfortunately, a man and a woman were standing more than ten meters away from me, arguing. I am not a nosy person, but since we were so close, a few words drifted into my ears.
"You didn't do well on the test this time. What are you doing every day? You don't study hard , and you don't accompany me. Are you playing games every day?" The girl's voice was a little sharp, mixed with some crying. "I waited for you to go out together after school every day, but you disappeared as soon as school was over. I asked you to go out for a walk, but you said you didn't want to go out. Then you could study hard at home, but you didn't do well on the test!"
"Hey, can you please stop crying? Are you annoyed? I have a lot of things to do, besides studying, there's you. My life would be so boring. What's wrong with me playing games when I have nothing to do? Don't I spend all my time with you when I have time? I promised you that I would move up ten places in the final exam, but it's not the end of the semester yet. It's just a small test. Are you so excited if I didn't do well?" The boy didn't seem to care about the girl's anger at all. He was completely trying to excuse himself in his words, as if he had done nothing wrong.
The scumbag has been a scumbag since childhood! I couldn't help but look at the two of them. The girl was of medium height, but her figure was very good, with a curvy figure. She was considered well-developed among high school students. Her oval face was very classically beautiful, and she looked even more beautiful when she cried. As for the boy, he was just pretty, without any outstanding advantages.
"That's enough. You're just making excuses. You can't even do well on the quizzes, but you suddenly did well on the final exams? You said you'd study hard for me, but you're lying to me. I'm telling you, you're only delaying yourself by doing this!"
"How did I lie to you? Should I be like a nerd, reading and studying every day, and knowing nothing about anything else?" The boy was obviously a little anxious.
"Being a nerd can at least help you get into a good university and find a good job. But what about you now? You play games every day. What will you do if you can't get into university in the future? Is there some girl in the game that attracted you?" The girl seemed unwilling to say anything softly and kept asking sharp questions.
I shook my head in my heart. There will be no result if we continue to argue like this. Both of us think it is the other's fault and we will definitely end up in a bad mood. But it is too difficult for people of this age to calm down and think long-term. I always think that boys are more at fault because I have witnessed too many children who only play games, do not study well, and whose families are not rich. In the end, they basically go astray. This girl looks smart and pretty. I hope she can stop as soon as possible.
"Are you saying this because you want to break up? If you want to break up, then do it. You can find the one who studies better. That's what I am doing." The boy finally said these harsh words.
"Okay, you said it, don't regret it. There are many boys who are better than you . I will find another one who will definitely be a hundred times better than you!" The girl's voice was also very determined.
"You...you really want to break up?" The boy became a little hesitant.
"Didn't you say you wanted to break up? Who's afraid of who?" The girl sobbed.
"Don't cry, I was wrong, I'm sorry. Can't I just stop playing games in the future? Please don't cry, okay?" The boy saw the girl crying louder and louder, and suddenly panicked, and kept apologizing.
I sighed in my heart. Watching them quarrel was like watching two kids playing house. They thought that a word could last forever and that the promise would never change. But they often break up after graduation. High school love is always fragile. After the college entrance examination, they often go their separate ways. But I still like these pure loves. They are not mixed with other things. They just like each other. It is simple and beautiful.
"Do you really know you are wrong?" the girl asked after crying for a while.
The boy nodded vigorously: "I know, can you give me another chance?"
"Okay, I'll give you one last chance. If you can't make it into the top 20 in this final exam, then we're really finished!" The girl's attitude was still firm.
"Okay!" The boy responded more in a perfunctory manner.
But nowadays girls don't care, they wipe their tears and smile soon, girls are always easier to fool, maybe they know it's a lie, but they would rather believe it. That girl should be very opinionated, if the boy doesn't do well in the final exam this time, I guess they will really break up.
"What are you looking at? You look so focused." An Yixuan patted my shoulder and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you? You always seem distracted? Are you under too much pressure from studying recently?"
"Maybe. I've been staying up late every day to do exercises and getting up early to memorize English words recently. Look, I have such big dark circles under my eyes!" I pointed at my dark circles and showed them to An Yixuan.
"Who told you not to sleep well? It's just a final exam. Do you need to be so nervous? What are you going to do during the college entrance exam?" An Yixuan had a funny and angry expression. "Remember to go to bed early in the future. Otherwise, if your body collapses, it will be useless no matter how high your test scores are."
"That's not true. Now everything is based on scores. I don't want to be worse than others. Besides, my test results were so good last time, I must keep it up this time." I rubbed my eyes and said. I don't know why, but the face of that girl just now kept flashing in front of my eyes. I felt that her face seemed a little indescribably familiar.
"Then eat more at noon and replenish your body." An Yixuan said to me with a smile.
"What if I get fat? I don't want to become a fat boy. I'm already ugly, and if I get fat, I'll be uglier." I said, patting the flesh on my body.
"You'll be cuter if you're a little fatter." An Yixuan suddenly stared at me and said with a smile, then he walked towards the cafeteria. I followed him, feeling a little sweet in my heart. When he said that you'll be cuter if you're a little fatter, is that the same as praising me for not being fat?
"I just saw a couple arguing. The girl said that the boy was busy playing games and ignored her, and the boy thought the girl was being unreasonable. I didn't expect that such a thing would happen in your school." I casually talked about what I just saw.
An Yixuan made a helpless expression: "It's normal. The students in our school are no different from those in your school. As for studying, I think it's most important to find a study that suits you. If you force yourself to study, you'll drive yourself crazy."
"Then I need to relax recently. It seems that I should come to see you more often when I have nothing to do. I can feel more relaxed." I deliberately joked, "You are just not afraid of me disturbing you, right?"
"You, you always have wild thoughts. Of course I hope you come every day, but health is important, study is second, and it's good enough that I can rank third in your heart." An Yixuan's words suddenly made me feel very ambiguous.
I shook my head: That’s not the case. In my heart, you are the one and only!
"Do you think you know me well?" I pouted.
"Oh, there's something wrong with you today, silly!" An Yixuan touched my head and said with a smile, and there seemed to be a hint of pampering in his tone.
