    Chapter 48: Book of Love

    “Fine, you guys are good!” On the opposite side of the first floor were the students of Class 15. Their grades were almost at the bottom of the ranking of No. 1 High School, but most of them planned on majoring in the arts.

    During the dispute, someone actually took out a guitar from a dark classroom.

    “We’ll let you guys see what a magnificent performance is!” The students from Class 15 were all chanting, “Quiet, listen!”

    Inexplicably, the whole building fell silent, and all eyes were on the south corridor on the second floor.

    A boy was holding a guitar, with his long hair reaching his shoulders. Who knows how he managed to escape the school rules.

    Oh, wait, no, there was also Fu Chuan from the sophomores.

    Before the boy opened his mouth, it was still a little noisy in the corridor. However as soon as he opened his mouth to sing, the surroundings became completely quiet.

    Everyone was involuntarily attracted by his smoky voice. Not to mention how beautiful his singing is, just his voice made people want to explore the story in it.

    Now the students of Class 15, who had refused to admit defeat before, felt embarrassed.

    The people in the corridor glanced at each other, thinking that they would sing a popular classic song together.

    The power of classic old songs was that people couldn’t help but sing along with them. Slowly, the students upstairs and downstairs began to sing in chorus, the scene was weirdly harmonious.

    Some teachers who were observing the situation of the students could not hold back, and they sang together with them as well.

    Just as everyone was immersed in the atmosphere of singing, all the lights in the corridors, classrooms, and corridors were instantly lit up.

    The atmosphere of the teaching building was condensed, and this light did not bring joy. On the contrary, it illuminated the Chu and Han border upstairs and downstairs (TLN: metaphor from the Warring States period in ancient Chinese history), and the distance between the two sides was reopened.

    Some students sighed and returned to the classroom one after another.

    “Next time there is a power outage, let’s sing together again!” Li Ge’s voice resounded throughout the teaching building.

    “What are you talking about!” The voice of the headteacher suddenly appeared.

    “Hahahaha.” The students still in the corridor burst into laughter, and the students in Class 15 downstairs gave an ok gesture.

    “So your previous class was so interesting?” Li Ge wrapped his arms around Qin Li and said with a smile, completely forgetting how he originally didn’t like him and didn’t want him to join the group of four.

    “They just focus their minds on other things.” Qin Li didn’t dislike Class 15, but his future path was different from theirs.

    “How did you get to Class 15? Although you are always at the bottom of our class, judging from the whole grade, your grades are still very good.” Li Ge’s small eyes sparkled with intense interest.

    Qin Li shrugged: “I didn’t get in because of the exams. My grades in junior high school were not good, and I didn’t pass the key score line.”

    This explanation was reasonable, but…

    “Were your grades so bad before?” Zhao Qian asked from behind.

    Qin Li turned his head: “Except for mathematics, everything else is poor.”

    He was different from Yao Yi. Yao Yi did well in all her grades, so she could spare more time to study mathematics. Qin Li used to give up the time spent on other subjects to do mathematics.

    But now that he has grown up a bit, he knew that this was irresponsible for his future, so he was learning to improve his grades little by little.

    “Go in quickly, what are you doing outside?” The teacher rushed over, fiercely, “Why are you all so misbehaving today?”

    The people in Class Zero did not dare to stay outside, and ran into the classroom in a swarm.

    Yao Yi lowered her head at the back of the group and didn’t see the person in front of her. She was pulled by Fu Chuan to avoid bumping into him.

    “Thank you.” Yao Yi whispered immediately.

    “It’s not a good thing to be distracted anytime and anywhere.” Fu Chuan frowned, his expression not very good. He recalled that during freshman year, he had pulled Yao Yi who was wandering around on Fengyang Road. She was almost hit by a car at that time.

    At this time, those love handbooks that Yao Yi researched suddenly came in handy. She said something that made her own goosebumps rise: “I’m waiting for someone to watch me anytime, anywhere.”

    After speaking, Yao Yi quietly looked at Fu Chuan’s expression, trying to read something from his face, but she couldn’t see Fu Chuan’s face clearly at all.

    Fu Chuan’s face was still calm as a still lake, but his heart started beating non-stop. This sentence contained too many hidden meanings. If it was another person, Fu Chuan may really have to think about it, but it was Yao Yi…

    He felt that he should not think too much, sometimes Yao Yi didn’t know what she was doing.

    “Mhm.” Fu Chuan replied lightly, and sat back in his seat.

    “?” Yao Yi felt annoyed when she saw that Fu Chuan didn’t respond at all.

    He didn’t even see such an obvious hint? This man was so stupid!

    Yao Yi never expected that there would be existences who understood the hint but pretended not to understand.

    If one plan fails, then use another! Maybe the ardent singing of Class 15’s classmates sparked Yao Yi’s rusty love radar, but she remembered another thing that promoted the relationship between the two parties.

    Watch a movie!

    It was said in the book that in a pitch-black movie theater, holding a bucket of popcorn, two people listening to the soundtrack of the movie, stretched out their claws to the popcorn together, no, Cupid’s arrow of love.

    In the end, after watching the movie, the relationship would begin.

    “… Fu Chuan.” Yao Yi called out in a low voice, and then handed him a note.

    Fu Chuan took it, opened the note, and a long paragraph was written. The central idea was that Yao Yi felt that contemporary high school students lacked thinking  outside of school subjects and needed to supplement their spiritual food. Since he was her deskmate, it was necessary to go to the movies together to promote cultural exchanges between them.

    [Thank you.]

    After Fu Chuan finished writing, he folded the note and passed it back to Yao Yi again.

    “Are you going?” Yao Yi asked Fu Chuan after staring at the two words “Thank you” for a long time.

    “What movie are you watching?” Fu Chuan just thought that Yao Yi’s invitation was a bit strange.

    “Anything works. Are you free on Saturday?” Yao Yi didn’t even do her homework, and looked straight at Fu Chuan.

    She didn’t know what she looked like in Fu Chuan’s eyes, lying limply on the table now, staring at him to make him agree.

    “Mhm.” Fu Chuan’s Adam’s apple twitched, and he finally looked away.

    But Yao Yi still didn’t let Fu Chuan go: “What does mhm mean, are you going or not?”

    She was a little anxious.

    “Yes.” Fu Chuan changed the word again.

    A smile immediately appeared on Yao Yi’s face, so bright that it almost dazzled Fu Chuan’s eyes.

    “Then what movie do you want to watch?” Yao Yi continued to follow the steps in the book with great effort.

    “You can choose.” Fu Chuan didn’t care at all what movie they were watching.
