The thick fog drifted around the school. As they stood there in the corridor, they could hear the murmurs of lectures from the surrounding classrooms. Contrary to the constant noise of the school, Jiang Wei and Zhi Ying were completely silent.
After Zhi Ying finished saying her words for proposal, she felt apprehensive, and her eyes flicked around wildly.
Jiang Wei lowered his eyes, his expression could not be seen clearly. He looked down at the floor for a while, and then asked hoarsely, "You... like me?"
'Could it be that what I just said was not realistic enough?' Zhi Ying felt so guilty that she didn't even dare to look at Jiang Wei.
"Mhm, probably..." Zhi Ying tried to be vague.
Jiang Wei, whose heart was still pounding, suddenly calmed down and looked directly at Zhi Ying, "Do you want to date me?"
"Yes." Zhi Ying replied straightforwardly.
A few rays of sunlight shone through the dense fog and sprinkled onto the teaching building, hitting Jiang Wei. His long eyelashes trembled, and he asked softly, "Because you might like me?"
Zhi Ying didn't know why she felt more and more guilty. It was probably because she was doing something bad, and had bad motives for the first time.
"...Mhm, since, since it is possible, we can't waste this possibility," Zhi Ying stuttered a little, not even knowing what she was talking about at this point.
Jiang Wei's tall and slender body leaned back slightly, his eyebrows and eyes emanating a cold feeling as he replied flatly, "It takes a process to date, I don't want to agree with you so hastily."
"But you also accepted the ceramic doll I gave you!" Zhi Ying was a little anxious. She frowned and directly expressed her thoughts, not having the presence of mind to think about it.
Jiang Wei was taken aback for a moment. There were indescribably emotions in his eyes, he closed his eyes lightly to restrain those emotions.
"That can be used as a token of love, I made it myself!!" Zhi Ying was still talking, feeling aggrieved by his dismissal. She felt that Jiang Wei was too cunning. She saw that he obviously wanted to date her; don't think she didn't know he also learned a lot from "The Book of Love".
"I know." Jiang Wei turned his head and looked towards the empty downstairs. At this time, there were no students, the fog was thick, and he could only vaguely see the shadow of the tall pine tree in the center of the flower bed.
"Then you won't be angry?" Zhi Ying vaguely felt that he was a little angry.
Jiang Wei looked at Zhi Ying again: "Are you pursuing me?"
"That's right, I've been talking for so long." It was so difficult for Jiang Wei to understand her words. Zhi Ying wondered how he got such good grades in composition. Obviously, he couldn't even understand her words.
"I don't think your pursuit is sincere enough." Jiang Wei leaned lightly on the railing, "I don't think you like me that much."
Zhi Ying frowned and looked at Jiang Wei. Really, how could he talk about likes and dislikes like this, he didn't look like a good student at all.
Thinking it was the same thing, Zhi Ying still had to force a smile in order to date Jiang Wei, "I like you, you…you are good-looking, with good grades."
Who knows what was going on with Jiang Wei today? He kept trying to dismantle Zhi Ying's platform, going against her words, "Aren't you face-blind?"
Zhi Ying raised her eyes and looked at Jiang Wei. Except for Han Jiaojiao and her small group of friends, she didn't tell anyone else about this matter. Besides, she never showed any clues about it normally.
"Anyway, I think you're good-looking." Zhi Ying became more and more shameless as she spoke, "Do you want to date me?"
Jiang Wei didn't even have time to react, so he directly refused, "No."
Probably after losing face, Zhi Ying didn't care anymore, "Then what do I have to do to make you agree?" 'I must start dating Jiang Wei before going to the winter camp!' she had already decided.
"Do you know how other people pursue the person they like?" Jiang Wei's heart in his chest started to jump again, but he still pretended not to care on the outside.
"I have studied it carefully, but there are still many things that I haven't practiced." Zhi Ying said wearily like a balloon that was punctured. After a while, she seemed to remember something and looked up at Jiang Wei, "Is it because of this that you don't agree?"
At this time, Zhi Ying had already tacitly believed that Jiang Wei had also read "The Book of Love".
Jiang Wei only loosely tied his hair today, and a lot of scattered hair fell down, hiding his red ears. He forced himself not to look at Zhi Ying who was in front of him, but to look at the sky emptily, "Then I'll consider whether to agree or not after you finish practicing."
This was better than no hope at all. Zhi Ying stood on the spot and thought hard for a while, before she reluctantly agreed, "Okay, then after I've pursued you, you have to promise me."
"You want to be with me that much?" Jiang Wei pursed his lips. Actually, he wanted to agree to Zhi Ying directly regardless of his image. However, it was obvious that she didn't want to... date him because she liked him.
Zhi Ying was afraid that Jiang Wei would go back on his word, "Anyway, you just agreed, and you can't change it."
The two stood at the door for two whole periods, and they were finally called back in after the second period. The language arts teacher also lost his temper after a while. He didn't know of the agreement his two students reached during the two periods of standing.
After the second period, the language arts teacher packed up the lesson plans and walked out of the classroom. After returning to the classroom, Jiang Wei turned to Zhi Ying and asked, "Aren't we going to go eat something?"
'I'm done telling you everything, so why am I still going out to eat?' Zhi Ying really wanted to say it, but nevertheless, Zhi Ying didn't say this in the end, maybe Jiang Wei was testing her now.
"The Book of Love" stated that she had to be obedient to the person being pursued.
"Let's go." Zhi Ying stood up obediently and went downstairs with Jiang Wei.
Zhao Qian looked at the backs of the two of them walking out of the classroom together, and asked curiously, "What are they going to do? Are they going to the language arts teacher to admit their mistake?"
Han Jiaojiao, who had overheard the conversation between the two behind her earlier, glanced at Zhao Qian, "You're thinking too much, they are going out to eat."
Zhao Qian opened his eyes wide, looked down at his unfinished homework, looked at the two people who had disappeared at the door, and said sadly, "Why didn't you tell me, I want to eat Huamei candy."
"Do you have morning sickness? You eat these sour things all day long." Han Jiaojiao recently particularly disliked some of Zhao Qian's actions, especially his look when he looked like he was going to go crazy for food.
…
This morning's teaching and research section was destined to be peaceful. The chemistry teacher who taught the class next to Class Zero was also the chemistry teacher of Class Zero. This morning, he especially took out two periods of class time for students to take exams. As a result, he saw Jiang Wei and Zhi Ying when he came out for a breather.
When he stepped forward to ask, he found out that they were standing for punishment.
This was possible? What major event made the teacher of Class Zero willing to drive out the first and second place of the grade? The chemistry teacher was very gossipy. Anyways, he didn't have any more periods of class to teach, and he couldn't go home. Thus, he stood at the door of the teaching and research room and guarded the language arts teacher of Class Zero.
"What happened today? Jiang Wei and Zhi Ying were kicked out of the classroom. Those two children are usually very good." The chemistry teacher said while observing the face of the language arts teacher who was opposite him. Could it be that the two children were too obvious and were discovered?
The language arts teacher was still holding the lesson plans in his hand, and sighed. He also burst out too much today, and he had been reflecting on it just after class.
"They are both distracted in a fair and honest manner. Forget about Zhi Ying, her composition is hopeless. That child, Jiang Wei, who knows what is going on, he actually was daydreaming." Although the language arts teacher was reflecting on his own mistakes, when he thought that the two students that had the best grades had an incorrect attitude for class, he became angry again.
"It's normal, young teens, it's like this when they're together." The chemistry teacher accidentally let out.
The language arts teacher wondered, "What about being together?" He didn't think about any other aspects.
"Oh, I said they can't concentrate on studying all day long, and it's understandable to daydream, so don't take it too seriously." The chemistry teacher quickly rounded up.
"Oh." The language arts teacher nodded and walked to the teaching and research room.
Just as the chemistry teacher was about to enter his office, a colleague angrily rushed past in the distance. The chemistry teacher was the type of person to join in the fun, so he couldn't help being interested.
"What's the matter, it looks like you're going to hit someone." The chemistry teacher leaned against the door and asked the teacher who was walking towards him.
The teacher still had anger on his face, "What's wrong? In the first period just now, a student threw two books from upstairs and didn't even check if there was anyone downstairs. Fortunately, I was quick, or my head will be blooming with bruises today."
The teacher suddenly held the two books in his hands. First period. Two books. It was not difficult to guess who these two books belonged to.
The teacher was still angry, "At first I wanted to go to the students upstairs to settle accounts immediately, but the students in my class came out to ask questions. I thought I would just look through the book to find the names of the students later, and then come upstairs to find which class they belong to, and then teach those students a lesson. Who knew that there were only notes in these two books, no names. Hmph, these notes are written nicely though."
"Let me take a look." The chemistry teacher took the two books from the teacher and flipped through them.
The handwriting on one was elegant, the writing on the other seemed to be distorted by the wind, but it was still neat and clean. It was not difficult to imagine whose books these were.
"Actually, these two students are my students. I have already taught them a lesson. When I went down to look for the books, I couldn't find them. It turned out that they were taken away by you, Teacher Zhang." The chemistry teacher mixed some lies with the truth.
"Your students?" The teacher was also taken aback.
"Yeah, the students were naughty, and I scolded them bloody at that time. Teacher, give me the book, and I will return it to them later. I have to scold them again to make sure they understand the danger of throwing objects at high altitudes." The chemistry teacher persuaded the teacher to go back to the office to rest without any trace, "You go to prepare your next lesson first, and I will take care of it."
"Okay, make sure to scold them well for me. It's fine if they hit me, what if they hit a student?"
"Okay, definitely, definitely." The chemistry teacher held two books and shook his head in his heart. He had spent all his time thinking about the two children.
Meanwhile, the two were wandering around the restaurants and had already forgotten all about the books that had been dropped downstairs. The two shuttled back and forth in the not-so-spacious small supermarket with their minds wandering.
The supermarket was not that big, and the restaurants were not that small.
Under the pressure of heavy high school studies, going to the bathroom with friends, and strolling out to buy snacks between classes were usually the only means of entertainment for students.
"Do you want to eat this?" Zhi Ying picked up a pack of white rabbit candy and asked, "I will treat you."
Jiang Wei probably didn't know how determined Zhi Ying was to treat him. After all, a pack of white rabbit milk candy could not be considered cheap for Zhi Ying. Her money was always spent on supplementing knowledge, and she seldom used it to buy snacks.
"It's very sweet and delicious." Zhi Ying tried hard to persuade Jiang Wei to accept her kindness. If he accepted, it must mean that she had successfully implemented one of the scenarios from the Book of Love again.
Jiang Wei looked at Zhi Ying's longing eyes, then at the candy, "Do you think it's delicious?"
"Yeah, it's delicious." Zhi Ying nodded quickly.
"Okay." Jiang Wei agreed.
Zhi Ying immediately rushed to the cashier. It seemed that as long as she practiced it step by step, it would be fine, and Jiang Wei was not so difficult to speak to.
