Chapter 58: Let’s Date

Yao Yi didn’t walk far after leaving the bike parking lot, she was thinking about the confession matter. 

I’m going to the capital to prepare for the winter camp soon, I can’t procrastinate any longer. I’ll confess my love as soon as he comes out!

While standing in the white fog, Yao Yi felt a little bit aggrieved in her heart. She felt that she was working very hard, trying to date the person that was first place while studying.

Pursuing people was tiring!

“Let’s go.” Fu Chuan came out carrying Yao Yi’s schoolbag.

Yao Yi’s heart skipped a beat, and she turned around to look at Fu Chuan with a guilty conscience. She immediately swallowed the words that came to her lips. 

Let’s talk about it after we get to class.

Fu Chuan didn’t know what Yao Yi was thinking, and walked side by side to the teaching building with her.

“You wish.” Han Jiaojiao was also a little depressed, and she didn’t want to stay in the classroom with this kind of rare weather.

Although nothing could be picked about from the attitude the students in Class Zero had towards learning, who didn’t want to have a break? Even if they went home, their time was spent on homework.

Yao Yi was not very interested in having a break. She was only thinking about how to confess to Fu Chuan later. She must not let him get ahead of her, she must grab the initiative!

“Fu Chuan.” Just when Yao Yi finally got the courage to say something, Lao Han walked into the classroom.

Fu Chuan glanced at Yao Yi, but both of them remained silent. They listened to Lao Han on the stage announcing things one after another, successfully arousing the students’ interest in learning.

“The sophomore year of high school is a critical moment. If you don’t lose the chain this year (TLN: saying that means to not give up), you will be relaxed in your junior year of high school.” Lao Han watched as the restless students gradually calmed down, and said with satisfaction, “Studying is like sailing against the current. If you don’t advance, you will fall back. Grasp the chance well. You must know that the classes behind you are eyeing your seats, waiting for one of you to fall out.”

After his lecture, Lao Han let everyone start reading their materials and then walked out by himself.

“What’s the matter?” Fu Chuan immediately turned to ask Yao Yi when he saw the teacher had left.

Yao Yi squeezed her thumb, became tense for a moment, and finally stammered: “You, I…do you want to go out to eat something after the second period?”

Fu Chuan’s eyes paused, and his clear and handsome eyebrows were briefly stained with a trace of dullness.

“You… just forget it if you don’t want to.” Yao Yi no longer knew what she was talking about either.

“Okay.” Fu Chuan, who had only bought a cup of brown sugar water from a milk tea shop since entering No. 1 High School, nodded and agreed after reacting.

Because of the appointment to go eat after the second period, Fu Chuan and Yao Yi both began to lose their minds in the first two periods.

These two periods are the lessons led by the language arts teacher, and Fu Chuan and Yao Yi were often the focus of the teacher’s attention. The focus of the language arts test paper was on the essay composition. The other parts did not need to be focused on with the strength of the Class Zero students. They were the basics, so the language arts teacher always focused on explaining the topics related to the composition in the lectures.

As a student with excellent essay composition, Fu Chuan certainly deserved the teacher’s attention. At the same time, they needed comparisons, so it was also necessary to pick out a bad representative. Yao Yi’s essay composition must be criticized.

This class was about a test paper that was taken in class last week. The language arts teacher first took out Fu Chuan’s test paper and read it. The organization was clear, the dialectical thinking was impressive, overall it was refreshing but not off topic.

“Classmate Fu Chuan’s discussion from this angle is unique, and his writing is very good. No one else in the class looked at the problem from his perspective.” The language arts teacher looked at Fu Chuan in the last row with satisfaction, “Fu Chuan, can you tell me about how you discovered this perspective when you got the test paper?”

Fu Chuan straightened his back, lowered his eyebrows and eyes, and it seemed as if he did not hear the teacher’s question at all.

The language arts teacher thought that his voice was too soft, so he raised the volume a little.

Fu Chuan still didn’t respond.

Han Jiaojiao quietly turned her head and nudged Fu Chuan’s table out of kindness.

Only at this time did Fu Chuan lazily raise his eyelids. A sharp look flashed through his eyes very quickly, and then it was immediately covered by him again.

Two-thirds of the class turned their heads to look at Fu Chuan. No matter how dazed he was, he could still understand what had happened.

The teacher must have called his name.

After all, the language arts teacher greatly valued Fu Chuan. He didn’t want to make him get in trouble, so he just skipped this matter.

“I’ve already read the good composition. Next, let’s take a look at the problem from another perspective. Some students…” The language arts teacher lowered his head and took out a test paper, sighed fiercely, “Interpret the prompt in an entirely different direction

After the composition was read out, the whole class knew who wrote it.

After all, being able to write a composition as if it was translated from a foreign language. Complete with a translator’s accent, not to mention in the whole class, there was only one person in the whole grade who could do this..

“The argument here seems to be telling me how to exploit the loopholes in the text. Is it meaningful to find logical errors in the text?” The language arts teacher pointed out, “We are not doing math problems.”

In the beginning, the language arts teacher was gentle and patient with Yao Yi. However, time and time again, the language arts teacher was pissed off by the powerful and irrefutable automorphic logic of her composition. No matter how amiable he(TLN: “he” as in the language arts teacher) was, she would go crazy.

“Right, Yao Yi?” The language arts teacher walked off the podium, and leaned on the desks of the students in the third row and spoke slowly.

Yao Yi stared at the blackboard for a long time without blinking her eyes.

There was obviously another master who zoned off.

“Yao Yi!” The language arts teacher was really angry now, and slapped his hands on the desks in the third row, “You started dreaming in broad daylight?!”

Yao Yi turned a deaf ear and was still thinking about how she would tell Fu Chuan about dating him after the second period.

“Yao Yi, are you trying to piss me off?” The language arts teacher swayed, and the hand holding the test paper was a little trembling, “You guys… both of you doing this.”

“Yiyi.” Han Jiaojiao turned around and called again.

This time even Zhao Qian had to push Yao Yi’s table a few times before she finally came to her senses in a daze.

Fu Chuan beside her also came back from his wandering thoughts.

“You two go out and stand for punishment, clear your mind!” The language arts teacher who had never lost his temper before in class was furious for the first time.

It wasn’t that he felt that his authority was being challenged. It was that he cared about the two students, but it turned out that they were both in a daze at the same time.

Fu Chuan and Yao Yi made eye contact, but that contact was brief. The two walked out with their language arts books.

“Just stand in the corridor, you guys reflect properly!” The language arts teacher even dropped the test papers on the ground angrily, and the students next to him picked them up for the teacher.

The two students have never gotten into trouble all these years, and it was the first time they came out for punishment. They were not used to standing outside like this. It took them a long time to figure out a suitable position before they could stand a little more comfortably. 

The language arts teacher came out and stood at the door: “You guys reflect in these two classes, and next time this happens, don’t take my class.” After speaking, there was a “slam” and the door closed.

Yao Yi didn’t even have time to utter the ‘oh’ in her mouth.

The white mist outside did not dissipate within this passage of time. Instead it became more and more dense, almost touching the students

“Is it cold?” Fu Chuan asked suddenly.

Oh, he got ahead of her. Yao Yi subconsciously frowned, this was a classic sentence in “The Book of Love.” Could it be…Fu Chuan also bought this book?

Yao Yi was a little anxious.

Seeing that Yao Yi was still in a daze, Fu Chuan couldn’t help reaching out and touching the back of her hand, which felt a little cold.

They came out in a hurry and didn’t have time to put on their gloves. Fu Chuan frowned, and the red mole between his eyebrows became more and more obvious.

Taking off the scarf around his neck, Fu Chuan wrapped it around Yao Yi’s hand.

“I have to hold the book.” Yao Yi withdrew her hand and moved her hand, drawing Fu Chuan’s attention to the book in her hand.

Fu Chuan directly pulled out her books, stacked them together with his own books, placed them on the flat surface under the railing, and carefully wrapped up Yao Yi’s hand with the scarf.

“Fu Chuan, let’s date.” Yao Yi looked down at Fu Chuan’s slender and clean hands that were carefully wrapping the scarf, and impulsively said what was in her heart.

Perhaps the impact of this sentence was too great, Fu Chuan’s hand shook and knocked the books off the railing.

It slammed straight down with a ‘pop’, accompanied by a middle-aged man’s exclamation.

Neither of them in the upstairs corridor paid attention to the movement downstairs. Yao Yi was still anxiously waiting for a reply, and Fu Chuan’s eyes were full of turbulent emotions.

After a long moment, Fu Chuan started moving again. He lowered his head and eyes, so Yao Yi could not see his expression clearly, but the hand that was wrapping Yao Yi’s hands was gentle.

Yao Yi didn’t have the guts to ask a second time, so she could only stare at Fu Chuan and wait for his answer.

“Why would you say such a thing?” Fu Chuan finally raised his head and looked straight into Yao Yi’s eyes, “Dating is not allowed in high school, you know that.”

As a good student, Yao Yi certainly knew that dating in high school was considered puppy love.

Yao Yi’s heart was pounding, and at the same time she was still a little unconvinced. Fu Chuan was too cunning, just because she confessed first, so he said that puppy love isn’t allowed?

“I think…” Yao Yi’s brain was running at a high speed, trying to find a reason, “Us dating will help our physical and mental health, and improve our grades. Yes, our grades will improve.”

“Doesn’t puppy love generally negatively affect grades? How would our grades be improved?” The corners of Fu Chuan’s lips curled slightly, “Besides, our grades can’t improve anymore.”

Yao Yi looked at the smile on Fu Chuan’s lips, feeling that it was extremely dazzling, and at the same time made her feel guilty.

Did he already know her plan? Saying something like this…

“Mhm, but we can improve our grades, such as my composition. Some of your points were lost because you answered a question immediately and missed a point.” Yao Yi tried hard to promote the benefits of dating, “If we date, we can have more time to discuss questions together.”

“That’s all?” The arc on Fu Chuan’s lips gradually fell, “We can do these things even if we are just classmates.”

“I, and… I…” Yao Yi gritted her teeth, “I like you.”
