Chapter 386 The Wind Rises
"it is good."
Li Zhuangsheng got up from the bed, yawning. He had slept too late last night, so his eyes were sore and dry. But he didn't care about much at the moment and quickly got dressed.
Because Zhu Zhixue posted on QQ, everyone would know that Li Zhuangsheng celebrated her birthday last night. If he was late during the day, who knows how many rumors would be spread. Li Zhuangsheng himself could accept it, but Zhu Zhixue was shy and would probably be embarrassed.
After getting dressed, Li Zhuangsheng got up and brushed his teeth, still using Zhu Zhixue's toothbrush. Now that it had come to this, there was nothing to be ashamed of in sharing toothbrushes.
Zhu Zhixue cooked noodles in the morning, which were light and delicious. Li Zhuangsheng looked at the bloodshot in her eyes and knew that she had gotten up at least half an hour earlier, so he touched her face with heartache.
"Why are you looking at me?" Zhu Zhixue raised her head and asked with a smile.
"Because you are beautiful." Li Zhuangsheng said.
"Hmph, of course I know that I'm the most beautiful in the world!" Zhu Zhixue snorted with a smile, and turned up her nose proudly.
"Haha, so shameless." Li Zhuangsheng pinched her nose, quickly finished his breakfast, and hurried to school with Zhu Zhixue.
The two entered the classroom one after the other, and were greeted by the amused gazes of the whole class.
Zhu Zhixue blushed, and she quickly walked back to her seat obediently, never looking at Li Zhuangsheng again, as if she wanted to "avoid suspicion". However, in the eyes of her classmates, avoiding suspicion at this time was nothing more than covering up the truth.
"Hey, were those fireworks set off for you last night by Li Zhuangsheng?"
The classmate couldn't wait to pat Zhu Zhixue on the shoulder.
"Hmm..." Zhu Zhixue bit her lip and nodded, her expression shy and a smile in the corner of her eyes.
"Wow, how romantic!" The person sitting in front of me turned around with envy written all over his face, "Did he leave his house from school? I heard from others."
"I guess so." Zhu Zhixue smiled and added modestly, "There were seventeen fireworks in total."
"Wow, this is really thoughtful!"
The classmate immediately screamed and grabbed Zhu Zhixue’s collar, shaking her hard.
"It's actually okay... just so-so."
Zhu Zhixue finally couldn't hold it back and grinned.
More and more students wanted to find out what happened last night, but at this moment a stern cold shout rang in their ears.
"Morning reading, today is Chinese!"
Lin Yuehua stood on the podium and slammed the table vigorously. The head teacher also walked to the door of the classroom to inspect at the right time.
Under its majesty, the rest of the curious people could only temporarily put aside their gossiping thoughts, pick up their books and blend into the noisy reading sounds.
Li Zhuangsheng just followed the crowd and picked up the Chinese textbook, but Lin Yuehua, who had walked down from the podium, gently snatched it away: "You don't need to memorize it if you know it, just memorize the words."
Li Zhuangsheng lowered his eyes and recited English words amid the sound of classical Chinese. Teacher Fan took a look and said nothing. Chinese teacher Hong also walked into the classroom and saw Li Zhuangsheng reciting English, but also said nothing.
As usual, Li Zhuangsheng said nothing more and just recited the words until the bell rang.
It was already bright outside the classroom, and Li Zhuangsheng got up and left without stopping. But he was still a step too late, and was caught up by several classmates who asked him questions.
“It spreads so fast.”
Li Zhuangsheng walked towards the shop and was surrounded by several boys.
"Zhu Zhixue posted several messages in a row, and many people forwarded them!" said one of them.
"She sent it late last night, and you saw it early in the morning without attending class!" Li Zhuangsheng's mouth twitched slightly.
"Brother, I really admire you! You are awesome!"
"Were you two together last night?"
"Have you done it yet?"
Several people kept asking questions, and Li Zhuangsheng was a little annoyed. After finally reaching the store, Li Zhuangsheng asked them to buy him two bottles of drinks before he reluctantly answered a few questions.
On the way back to the classroom, Zhang Qixiang was still curious: "You two were together last night, right?"
"Why do you ask this?"
"You guys, did that?" "No." Li Zhuangsheng said indifferently.
"Really do not have?"
"Really do not have!"
"You...are not capable of this?" Zhang Qixiang was distressed.
"Get lost." Li Zhuangsheng kicked his butt. "Do you understand pure love? Please don't be so vulgar."
"...Awesome!" Zhang Qixiang gave a thumbs up.
Li Zhuangsheng shook his head and didn't say much.
"Don't think so much. You should be more concerned about tomorrow's midterm exam."
"I'll show you your father's strength tomorrow!"
……
Back in the classroom, during the candlelight dinner, Zhu Zhixue was surrounded by people chatting and laughing. Li Zhuangsheng walked over and handed her a bottle of drink, and was immediately booed by the crowd.
Zhu Zhixue smiled sweetly, her face as rosy as the clouds.
Li Zhuangsheng sat back in his seat, lowered his head to read a book, and acted as if he was telling people not to come near him.
"Hey, was that candlelight dinner yesterday prepared by Li Zhuangsheng?"
"Ah."
"I didn't expect he could cook!"
“It’s delicious!”
"What was that firework thinking? It's so romantic. I want one for my birthday, too!"
“It must have cost a lot of money.”
"That pop-up book, was it made by him himself? Did you bring it with you?"
"He did it. I didn't bring it."
"Bring it here for us to see. How can those few pictures you took last night be enough?"
"Okay... I'll bring it tomorrow."
"Oh, I'm so envious, you two are such a perfect match!"
"Haha, just so-so..."
The girls were chatting and laughing with Zhu Zhixue, and there was an unprecedented smile in Zhu Zhixue's eyes. It was like the weather at the beginning of summer and the end of spring, the sky was clear, warm and refreshing.
Although Li Zhuangsheng was reading a book, he was listening to the unabashed conversation behind him. After thinking for a while, he quietly took out his cell phone to check out the QQ space that Zhu Zhixue had posted.
However, it didn't matter if the machine was not turned on. Once it was turned on, Li Zhuangsheng was shocked.
There were more than a dozen missed calls last night, all from Li Xiuyu. The last one was at four o'clock in the morning.
"Ah, this..." Li Zhuangsheng felt a chill in his heart. It was over.
In fact, he had already told Li Xiuyu last night that he would be back later, and after Zhu Zhixue finished her meeting, it was past midnight, and he was kept by Zhu Zhixue. Li Xiuyu should have gone to bed by then, and Li Zhuangsheng didn't pay much attention to it. He sent a text message and turned off his phone...
But now, looking at the numerous missed calls, Li Zhuangsheng felt a chill in his heart and felt inexplicably anxious.
"The worst that can happen is I can just apologize to her... let her beat me up, and then try to coax her..." Li Zhuangsheng said to himself.
He didn't know why he had to say it out loud. Perhaps only in this way could he slightly ease the uneasiness in his heart.
"I don't want to think about it anymore... When we meet tonight, just slide down on your knees obediently!"
Li Zhuangsheng took a deep breath, shook his head, and then muttered to himself. Brothers and sisters don't have overnight grudges. At most, they will be angry for a few days.
