Chapter 96: The Girl Takes Charge
As April passed, the rainy season in Jinghai began to become more frequent.
After nearly a year of life in the first grade of junior high school, everyone seemed to have gradually adapted to the status of being older kids and become much more mature.
Xu Cheng was still worried about the water leakage in Yu Yu's house. He couldn't let an old man and a child climb onto the roof to apply asphalt and lay brown paper.
This matter was discussed with He Ying and Xu Jianghe during dinner. He Ying, who always treated Yu Yu as her own daughter, and Xu Jianghe hit it off and found a construction team with acquaintances at home to do waterproofing.
The mother-in-law was very grateful for this and sent several bags of vegetables she grew in the countryside to Xu Cheng's home.
As May Fourth approaches, class monitor Xu becomes busier and busier. Not only does he have to prepare various speeches and share his learning experiences, but he is also responsible for various class affairs.
After class that day, Brother Qiang called Xu Cheng over and said, "You've been quite busy lately, attending meetings everywhere and preparing for the Three Good Students speech. Don't let your studies get in the way. After all, the most important job of a student is to study."
Xu Cheng was very grateful that Brother Qiang could say such words, which showed that the teacher valued him very much. He smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, teacher. I can still handle it."
Brother Qiang was still worried. In his opinion, such a good seedling should not be busy with the work of class monitor, but should focus on improving his grades. He sighed.
"At that time, I thought you were very capable, so I didn't choose a vice-class monitor like other classes did. How about this, you choose a vice-class monitor from your class to share the work pressure. At your age, study is the most important thing, nothing else is important."
"good."
Xu Cheng said goodbye to the teacher and turned to walk into the classroom. After only taking two or three steps, a bunch of gossipy classmates came up to him and asked him questions.
"Squad leader, what's the matter?"
"Squad leader, what did the old squad leader tell you?"
Lin Wanzhou sat in his seat .
Her watery eyes glanced towards the classroom door, and her little hands, like a timer, poked a black dot on the eraser with a fountain pen every ten seconds.
Why are these girls always so gossipy...
So close...
Especially that Liu Yunyun, she’s almost getting close to him!
My hand speed couldn't help but increase to 1 point/s, poking, poking, poking... The eraser immediately became so claustrophobic that I wanted to commit suicide when I saw it.
Suddenly I remembered the hug during New Year's Eve...
The tip of the pen playfully flowed into lines on the exercise book in front of him, and then changed into the shape of two stickmen. One stickman's arm stretched out very long, like an eraser, and its arm circled the world, and finally embraced the other stickman...
The corners of the girl's mouth rose slightly, and her feet in white shoes began to shake happily under the table.
"What are you doing?"
A familiar voice broke the girl's fantasy. She adjusted her hair and whispered guiltily.
"Thinking about the question."
Xu Cheng glanced at the exercise book in front of her, "Which question do you not understand? I'll teach you."
Lin Wanzhou quickly covered the exercise book with both arms and rested his chin on his arms.
"It's a very difficult question, you definitely can't do it!"
Xu Cheng found it strange. He asked himself, let alone the first grade, even the questions in the third grade might not stump him, so he had to take a look today.
"Show it to me."
He tried to forcefully snatch the booklet from Lin Wanzhou's hand, and only then did he notice the tattered rectangular white eraser on her desk.
"This looks like my eraser..."
Lin Wanzhou's face turned slightly red. Xu Cheng picked it up and looked at it carefully. There were many black spots very densely packed together, vaguely forming letters. The front was XC and the back was SB.
He couldn't help but raised his hand and tapped Lin Wanzhou's little head gently, "Why are you ruining my eraser...see if this can still be used!"
Lin Wanzhou pouted her lips, but it felt really good to poke her...
"pay!"
"I'll buy you another one this afternoon..."
"No! Pay it now!"
Xu Cheng glanced at her own pink pig eraser. Lin Wanzhou was unable to protect it and he snatched it away first. He used his big hands to break it apart.
"Do you want a pig's head or a pig's butt?"
Lin Wanzhou's mouth was puffed up. She bought this eraser after seeing it in the stationery store yesterday. She hadn't used it a few times before Xu Cheng pouted it.
"Pighead!"
Xu Cheng felt that this girl was making a double entendre.
“Yes.”
He handed her the pig's head and then pushed his pig's butt onto her desk. "Look, doesn't it look like the tiger talisman used in ancient times to mobilize troops? The two can only be placed together."
Hearing this, Lin Wanzhou put her two little feet together and rubbed her slender neck against the white collar unnaturally.
Just like a little kid... and even a tiger talisman... childish or not...
But the little hand honestly pinched the pig's head and his pig's butt together, and the pig that was torn into pieces by the two horses became whole again.
"Okay, I'm appointing you as the deputy monitor now. From now on, the monitor's decisions will only take effect when they are combined with the deputy monitor's pig talisman."
Lin Wanzhou: ???
The young girl had an inexplicable feeling in her heart. She probably lent her household registration booklet to Xu Cheng out of kindness, so he took her directly to get the certificate.
After Xu Cheng explained to her what Brother Qiang had told her, she finally understood what was going on.
The girl considered quietly in her heart.
If I don't agree, what if other girls take it as a trick, and then other girls go everywhere with Xu Cheng...
"Well... then I will reluctantly agree to be your assistant, but I have a few requests..."
"Any other requirements? As long as you do a good job, you will get great benefits." Xu Cheng began to promise the girl.
Lin Wanzhou's eyes were full of doubts. "Are you kidding me? You just want me to work as a laborer for you. What benefit can that bring?"
Xu Cheng patted his chest and said, "Of course there are benefits. You are contributing to the class. If you help me well, you will have advantages in the future when applying for awards, joining the Youth League, or becoming a three-good student. As long as you do a good job, I will be your class monitor in the future."
"Bah... Who wants you..." the girl blushed.
"Of course, in order for you to better assist the monitor in his work, I have to make a few requests of you."
Xu Cheng picked up his thermos cup and spat a mouthful of tea, thinking carefully for a few seconds.
"Ahem, first of all, you must always pay attention to whether there is water in the monitor's cup. If there is no water, remember to go to the water room to get it for him... Ouch, be gentle..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Wanzhou stood up with his teeth bared and reached over the table to pinch the soft flesh on his waist.
"Okay, okay, I can't stand it anymore..."
After Xu Cheng begged for mercy and his classmates looked at him with strange eyes, Lin Wanzhou finally gave up with red cheeks.
"If you bully me again, I will tell Aunt He that you had a premature love affair at school, and you will definitely suffer the consequences!"
"Okay, okay, I won't bully you anymore..."
"Well... the deputy monitor has several requests now, and the monitor must agree!"
"I agree."
"First, if the deputy monitor runs out of water, the monitor must help her get some water!"
“…”
"Um?"
"Oh oh oh, I promise to complete the task."
snort.
Although Lin Wanzhou didn't say anything, she was very happy in her heart. The little depression caused by the rubber being pricked just now disappeared, and she began to think about her second request, "Hmm..."
The radio suddenly notified the class leaders that a meeting would be held in the conference room of the administrative building after the next class. She looked at Xu Cheng and pointed at herself.
"Should I go?"
"Well, let's go together."
The bell for class has rung, and the corridor has suddenly become empty. Lin Wanzhou took out a small notebook from her schoolbag and followed Xu Cheng closely.
The corridor was empty except for the two people standing side by side.
The breeze was blowing, the girl had her hands behind her back, her mind was charming.
What...
It's like going on a date...
