Chapter two 3
When I thought of the English teacher's face that looked like an angry person, my sad mood instantly disappeared. Being late is not terrible, what is terrible is the English teacher who doesn't like to see students being late.
"Amitabha, Holy Mother Mary, Amen, we finally made it." Before Xiao Yi and I could catch our breath, our English teacher, who was wearing black-framed glasses, had already walked up to the podium in her unique rhythm.
"That was a close call!" Xiao Yi lifted the desk cover to cover her face and breathed a sigh of relief. "Next time, I'll never take this risk with you, even if you kill me."
"Didn't you scream very loudly just now? And you also said that No. 9 is so handsome, and it is worth taking risks for a handsome guy. Why do you regret it now?" I said unconvinced.
They were clearly together when they were infatuated with each other just now, but now this girl has completely distanced herself from it. I seriously despise her.
"Hey, I'm going with you, okay!" Xiaoyi said dissatisfiedly. After a while, she started to wink at me again, "I said, you have been in love with No. 9 for a long time, right? You even hid the secret relationship from me, you're asking for a beating!" After Xiaoyi said that, she pretended to hit me.
"What?" I retorted while blocking Xiaoyi's attack, "I don't even know my name, and you're still having an underground relationship with me? Dream on!"
"He gives you water without knowing your name? He is obviously the one who needs water. How dare you say he is not interested in you?" Xiao Yi started to become aggressive.
"He..." Although I was happy at first because Tsurugahara stopped the game to give me water, I couldn't be happy when I thought about how gentle he was to Xin Xin. "He treats every girl like this, how could he like me?"
"That's right." Xiao Yi was silent for a while, then agreed, "If I were a boy, I wouldn't like a girl with a low IQ like you."
"You..." I was so angry at her that I couldn't say a word.
"So..." Xiao Yi stretched out a finger and waved it in front of me, "Based on my years of experience reading romance novels, it turns out that you are in love with Tsurugahara, right?"
"I……"
Seeing that I was speechless, Xiaoyi smiled smugly and came close to me and said, "Don't you always have an image of a perfect honey in your mind? She must be as noble as a prince, as polite as a gentleman, and her appearance, figure, and IQ must all be perfect. I think that Tsurugahara completely meets your requirements for a perfect honey! From what I know about you, even if you don't admit it, I know that the perfect honey in your mind is him."
Who said that the greatest blessing in life is to have a close friend who knows each other inside out? I think this is a misfortune. Looking at Xiaoyi's smug expression, I felt so upset. If I had known, I would not have talked to her. Now she has seen through my thoughts. I am so embarrassed!
"I……"
Before I could open my mouth to argue, someone suddenly pulled my arm. I turned around with a frown and saw the squad leader sitting behind me looking at me helplessly with a comic .
"Ge Ruya, here's the book for you." The squad leader said helplessly.
"Ah? For me?" I felt puzzled. It's true that I like reading comic books very much, but this book is definitely not mine. My comic books are all wrapped in book covers with "Chinese Extracurricular Reading" written on them.
The squad leader gave me a look, and I looked at the person next to him—Rui Qing was looking at me with a smile on his face, tilting his head.
"He gave it to me, and he insisted that I pass it to you. What a trouble." The squad leader rolled his eyes at me. I thought this guy's eyes were really too small, otherwise he would have to roll his eyeballs out if he rolled his eyes like that.
"Oh." I took the book reluctantly, and when I was about to open it, I met Xiaoyi's face full of gossip.
"Ruiqing's?" she asked knowingly.
"Well, it seems that I didn't put enough mustard in the morning." After saying that, I gently opened the book and found a note neatly tucked on the 19th page. This is Ruiqing's habit. I don't remember when he developed this habit, but he always likes to put the note on the 19th page. It has never changed. Every time I ask him, he will say that it represents the 19th level of hell.
I opened the note and saw familiar regular script on it. I have to admit that Ruiqing's handwriting is pretty good and much more likable than he is himself.
Dear classmate Ge Ruya, the lunch box today left me with an unforgettable memory. To express my gratitude, please wait for me in the classroom after school. I would like to thank you in person.
Ruiqing handsome
I felt my scalp tingling when I saw the signature. Ruiqing Shuaishuai? I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen anyone as shameless as him.
"Actually, Ruiqing is not bad either!" I don't know when Xiaoyi leaned her head over, glanced at the note, then looked at me, and finally smiled at me mysteriously.
"What?" I asked puzzled.
"Ge Ruya, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?" Xiao Yi shook her head.
"I am neither stupid nor fake!" I said firmly, slamming the table.
"Ge Ruya, I think you are brainless." Xiao Yi concluded helplessly.
"You have no brains!" I swear it was a reflex, I didn't mean it, really.
It turns out that my actions always come before my thoughts, so when Xiaoyi looked at me with sympathy, I rolled my eyes complacently.
"What do you think? Are you scared? Let me tell you, I, Ge Ruya, am not someone you can easily bully. My IQ and EQ are definitely very high." I smiled proudly at Xiaoyi. Looking at her fearful eyes, I was so happy that I felt a little elated.
"Ge Ruya, your IQ and EQ are both very high?"
"yes."
Uh...wait, this sound is...
"Teacher, I..."
As soon as I turned around, I saw my English teacher standing behind me, holding the damn comic book tightly in his hand.
"You don't listen carefully in class, and you're chatting and reading comics. Get out now!"
"Teacher, no, I...no..." I was so anxious that I was a little incoherent.
"go out!"
I walked out of the classroom with my head down, looking back every step of the way. Women in menopause really should not be messed with. What kind of fate is this for me? It's all Ruiqing's fault. It's all his fault!
I stood in the corridor, staring blankly at the blue sky outside, cursing Ruiqing in the classroom over and over again. Why did you pass the note? Just pass the note, why use a comic book? Woohoo... I'm a good student, and my reputation has been ruined like this. I'm so angry!
Fortunately, I was always a good girl in the eyes of the teacher, so the head teacher didn't make things difficult for me except to persuade me with reason and confiscate the comic book. Finally, he said to me earnestly: "Ge Ruya, you should read more books that can improve your IQ in the future."
I am so depressed. How can reading comic books reduce my IQ?
As I walked out of the head teacher's office with gritted teeth, you can imagine how angry I was when I saw Ruiqing at the door. Oh my God, please forgive my temper!
"Ge Ruya..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, I pushed him back: "If you don't want me to hate you forever, just go away!" After saying that, I walked forward quickly, without looking at his reaction or expression, just walked forward with my head down.
Today can definitely be called "Gerua Disaster Day", all because of Ruiqing, bastard! I feel like a smoke-emitting bomb moving forward quickly, looking for a target to bomb. If I don't find someone to vent my anger on, I think I will explode.
Until I met Tsurugahara at the subway station. The moment I saw him, all my anger disappeared without a trace as if it had gone with the wind.
Just like Xiaoyi said, once a girl has something on her mind, everything will become chaotic and she will lose her direction. There is only one person in her heart and eyes, and she can recognize him at a glance even among thousands of people.
Just like now, I am standing stupidly on the subway platform, watching the pedestrians passing by, but my eyes can only accommodate one person. If mood has colors, I think my mood now should be pink, which is the sweetness of a little girl. I can feel very satisfied just by watching from a distance.
I don't know why my eyes suddenly got wet and my nose felt sore. Maybe it was because I saw him at that moment, or maybe it was because I knew he didn't belong to me, but I was still deeply infatuated with him. Thinking of how Xin Xin stood with him during the day, I began to feel sad.
I sighed softly, and then began to cheer myself up. What are you afraid of? You are Ge Ruya, you are the Ge Ruya who can't be blown down by the wind or rain. Didn't you say that if you like someone, you are happy even if you can only see him/her from afar every day? Then aren't you very happy now? People should not be too greedy, and learn to cherish what they have.
As I comforted myself in this way, I recalled the days when I had secretly followed him for more than a month, and my heart was overwhelmed by a sweet and bitter feeling. Maybe this is what it feels like to like someone, the bitterness of not being able to get him/her and the sweetness of just watching him/her from afar.
Just when I was alone and intoxicated with my own girlish thoughts, a pair of white sneakers suddenly appeared in front of me. They were exactly the same as the pair that suddenly appeared in front of me in the afternoon. The owner of this pair of shoes was...
I slowly raised my head and immediately saw his gentle eyes.
It’s him, Tsurugahara.
That familiar figure was walking towards me step by step, and the sound of his feet on the marble was clearly heard in my ears. Was he really walking towards me? I looked around hurriedly and found that I was the only one in this corner.
Is Tsurugahara walking towards me?
Before I could come to my senses, he was already standing opposite me, still smiling indifferently, his slightly curled eyelashes trembling slightly, and even his eyes, which were usually as calm as a lake, now showed a hint of smile.
"Hello, we meet again." His lips opened and closed like an angel reading out God's will, and I was like a believer listening to God's will, completely intoxicated by his voice.
Am I dreaming? Can I not wake up this time?
One day, a long time from now, someone will still say to me with a smile: "Ruya, you don't know how silly your expression was that day." Then I will wave my arms rudely and pounce on someone with my teeth and claws bared. Of course, this is a long, long time from now, and now I can only stare blankly at Tsurugahara who is smiling across from me.
"Okay, long time no see." My tongue got tied again. Woohoo... Why am I so useless? Ge Ruya, stop shaking!
I secretly pinched my hand, and the pain calmed me down. It was embarrassing enough to make a fool of myself in front of him again and again, and I must not embarrass myself in front of Tsurugahara again this time. I must quickly show my ladylike temperament!
"Are you nervous?" The boy opposite me laughed softly, pursed his thin lips, and looked at me curiously with my blushing face. His eyes were brighter than the brightest stars in the summer night. "Quiet as a deep pool, bright as stars" must be describing Tsurugahara's eyes.
"me……"
Oh, God, please give me strength! Should I buy half a catty of duck tongue to eat tonight? Isn't it said that like cures like? Woohoo... Why is it so difficult to say a complete sentence in front of him? My expression must be as weird as it can be, because I see that Tsurugahara's eyes have become strange when he looks at me. Woohoo... He must think I'm an idiot.
"I'm Tsurugahara." Just as I was racking my brains over how to restore my image as a lady, the person opposite me took a step forward, extended her hand gracefully, and still smiled faintly.
"I... my name is Ge Ruya." I tried my best to say this complete sentence. I really wanted to tell him who I was generously and elegantly and leave him a good impression, but my tongue was so stiff that it didn't even sound like my own.
"Hello, Ge Ruya." He smiled and stretched out a slender white hand with distinct joints. Look at him, even one hand exudes a noble and elegant aura. I raised my shriveled little paw and looked at it again and again, but I didn't have the courage to hold his hand. Compared with his, my hand was just a chicken paw.
"Shake hands or... forget it."
God is my witness, I am so unwilling to say this, I want to hold his hand, even if it is just a little bit. But I still don't have the courage, maybe that's why Xiaoyi always thinks I am a hopeless person.
Would he be angry? I slowly raised my head to see his expression, but I met his gaze all of a sudden. His smiling eyes made my unrestrained heart beat non-stop.
Please don't smile at me, I have poor self-control.
My head was so dizzy, and I seemed to see large, beautiful, pure white flowers blooming in the air. They surrounded Tsurugahara, making him look like an angel.
Just as I was daydreaming, Tsurugahara gracefully extended his hand to me again.
"Please accept it." I don't know when a white envelope appeared in his hand. It was a very beautiful envelope with delicate gold-stamped patterns, noble but not ostentatious. He handed the envelope to me, bent down slightly, and was as elegant as a prince. "Next Saturday is my birthday. Can I invite you to my birthday party?"
