Chapter 43: Not interested
"Wait, I want to ask you something. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info" Xiao Yao called out to Dean, who wanted to leave.
Dean turned to look at Xiao Yao. Xiao Yao asked, "Is Sarmien very popular with boys at school?"
"Do you think Sammy is pretty?" Dean didn't answer, but asked Xiao Yao with a smile.
"Hmm. Xiao Yao nodded. Sarmien has a beautiful and smooth long brown hair, a goose egg face that is different from the typical square face shape in the United States, with delicate facial features, a full chest, a slender waist, and slender and slender legs.
"So, of course, pretty girls have a lot of suitors, and Sammy is also the drummer of our school band, which is beautiful and very cool. Dean was also proud when he talked about his sister in front of Xiao Yao.
"Female drummer?" Xiao Yao made a gesture of beating the drum kit, and then praised: "That's really cool!"
"So that Joey or something, trying to trouble me because he knows I live in your house?" Xiao Yao looked at Dean and asked.
"Maybe. Dean looked at Xiao Yao with some surprise. recalled that when Joey spoke, it was when a friend asked him if Xiao Yao lived in his house. Thinking about it this way, it is really very likely, after all, Joey is also one of Sammy's suitors.
Dean looked at Xiao Yao's eyes a little differently, and he found that this guy seemed to be very knowledgeable about human feelings, and reacted quickly, not at all like the nerd he thought before.
"Can you tell me about the school's band, what type of band, do you usually have performances?" Since it comes to bands, Xiao Yao, who is a musician, is naturally very interested.
"You like to watch the band live? I'm the lead singer of the school band, and I'll let you know when there's a performance. Dean said with some smugness.
"You're the lead singer, but why do I feel like you're not as popular as your sister as a drummer at school? Xiao Yao looked at Dean and smiled.
"That's because female drummers are rare, and she's beautiful. Dean pouted.
"I agree. Xiao Yao nodded, accepting Dean's reason.
"By the way, what club at school do you plan to join?" Now Dean has a great improvement in Xiao Yao's opinion, and the conversation is also a little more interested, so he simply sat down again, caring about Xiao Yao.
"There are a lot of extracurricular activities in high schools in the United States, so students generally choose to participate in clubs that interest them. Dean introduced Xiao Yao.
"I don't have any ideas, do you have any suggestions?" Xiao Yao asked Dean.
"Math interest group, aren't you good at math?" Dean suggested.
"Am I going to be a teacher for them? Xiao Yao pursed his lips and said a little arrogantly. However, Xiao Yao also has arrogant capital, and with the general level of mathematics among American high school students, Xiao Yao can indeed be their teacher now.
"Also, I almost forgot that you were the one who participated in the training camp of the Huaxia Olympiad team. Dean nodded. did not feel disgusted by Xiao Yao's arrogant words, but liked Xiao Yao's occasional publicity. Most Americans feel that confident people are more attractive, not to mention that Xiao Yao does have the capital to publicize in this regard.
"Then I don't have anything to recommend, let's see it after you understand it yourself, there are a lot of school clubs, I can't finish talking about it at once. Anyway, I don't recommend you go to the basketball club, I forgot to tell you just now that Joey is the captain of the basketball team. Dean said.
"Is your band short of people?" Xiao Yao asked with a smile as he looked at Dean.
"You're still playing in a band?" Dean looked at Xiao Yao with his mouth wide open.
"I've never played in a band, but I can play guitar. Xiao Yao replied.
"Oh," Dean nodded, closing his mouth wide open. Dean knew that there were many young people who could play the guitar this year, but since he had never joined the band, he estimated that his level was relatively average, so he shook his head and said, "There is no shortage of people in the band." β
"Okay, I'll go to the school tomorrow to find out what clubs are there and see if there are any interested ones, thank you. Xiao Yao said with a smile.
"It's okay, I just don't like nerds, since you're not, then I'm still happy to be friends with you, a guy from Huaxia, after all, you live in the same house with me now. Dean got up and patted Xiao Yao on the shoulder, then turned to leave.
"Nerd, me?" Xiao Yao was stunned, pointing to his nose and muttering to himself. Now he seemed to understand why Sarmien and Dean were colder to him before, it turned out that they all thought he was a nerd and couldn't play together.
Actually, it's no wonder that Sarmyon and Dean misunderstood. Yanjing No. 2 Middle School thinks that since it is an international exchange student and is going to study, the information about Xiao Yao to Xiqiao Middle School does not write Xiao Yao's identity as an acting star and his achievements in acting, after all, those have little to do with the school, so it only focuses on Xiao Yao's academic achievements. And participating in the training camp of the Olympiad national team is too prominent, which inevitably makes Sarmien and Dean who saw the information think that Xiao Yao is a mathematical genius nerd.
Dean's change in attitude towards Xiao Yao is very obvious. At lunch time at school the next day, Dean took the initiative to find Xiao Yao and had lunch with Xiao Yao.
Except for Xiao Yao, a newcomer, most students usually get together in groups after class, and Dean is no exception. So when Dean took the initiative to find Xiao Yao to have lunch with him, the black teenager and Latino teenager who greeted Dean at the school gate on the first day were also with Dean. Xiao Yao also met George, a black boy, and Mike, a Latin boy. Through Dean's introduction, Xiao Yao knew that the two were also members of the school band, bassist and keyboardist respectively.
Although he has never been in an American high school in his previous life or in his life, the American high school curriculum is not very difficult for Xiao Yao, who was already a college graduate in his previous life. Except for meeting two new friends at lunch, Xiao Yao's school life the next day was still a little uneventful.
In his spare time, he had a general understanding of the school's clubs, but Xiao Yao still didn't see the clubs he was more interested in and wanted to join, so after the afternoon class, Xiao Yao, who had no club activities, went home directly.
"Jan, are you in there?" Samion, who came home from school in the afternoon, remembered that his mother had instructed him to introduce Xiao Yao to a part-time job yesterday, so he went directly to Xiao Yao's attic room on the third floor and knocked on the door.
"Yes, please come in!"
Hearing Xiao Yao's response, Samion pushed open Xiao Yao's door and walked in, just in time to see Xiao Yao holding a book and straightening up from the head of the bed where he was sitting.
Seeing Xiao Yao holding the book in his hand, Samian muttered in his heart: "I don't go out to play after school, I hide in my room and read, I still seem to be a nerd." His brow furrowed.
"Yesterday I said that I would introduce you to the supermarket as a part-time tally clerk, can we go now?" Samion said as he looked at Xiao Yao, who was holding a book.
"Of course. Xiao Yao closed the book in his hand, put it on the desk next to the bed, and got up.
"Then let's go. Sarmien turned to leave.
"Your car?" Xiao Yao, who was out of the house, watched Sarmien bring himself to a slightly old car and asked Samian.
"Uh-huh. Sarmeon nodded, pulled open the driver's door and sat inside.
"That..."Xiao Yao consciously sat in the co-pilot, and asked Samian, "Can I take your car to school tomorrow?" β
California's law states that you can get a driver's license at the age of 16, so it's not uncommon for high school students to drive to school. Since Sarmien has a car, most of them also drive themselves to school. No wonder I didn't see Sarmien and himself and Dean on the school bus when they went to school this morning.
"Why?" Sarmid turned his head to look at Xiao Yao, "Dean thinks my car is an old second-hand car, so he never takes my car to school, preferring to take the school bus." β
"Because I'm not Dean. Xiao Yao shrugged, "It's good to have a hitchhiker, I don't mind if it's a second-hand car." β
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow. Sarmien hesitated, then nodded.
The supermarket that Samian introduced to Xiao Yao has a very straightforward name, called "Buy More". The boss is a middle-aged and elderly black man who looks very sincere, and his gray hair and vicissitudes of black face make a deep impression.
Because Sarmyn performed well when he worked here before, the boss had a good impression of Sarny, and he was also more relieved about Xiao Yao, who was recommended by Samian. Xiao Yao's image and performance are good, and he passed the interview smoothly. took Xiao Yao around the supermarket, introduced the work content, and some rules that need to be followed in the supermarket, and the boss told Xiao Yao that he could come to work tomorrow night.
After thanking the boss, Sarmien took Xiao Yao home.
When I got home, Mrs. Smith was already at home with Dean and Elena. Mrs. Smith had already prepared dinner and waited for them to come back for dinner.
At dinner, Sarmid told his mother that he had taken Xiao Yao to the supermarket for an interview, and Xiao Yao successfully got a part-time job in the supermarket, and his task had been completed.
Mrs. Smith happily complimented the two of them, and told Xiao Yao that Xiao Yao's complete life as an American high school student can now be regarded as a real beginning.
After dinner, Xiao Yao offered to help Mrs. Smith clean the dishes and tidy up the kitchen, but Mrs. Smith refused with a smile.
"You better go out for a walk, have some fun, remember the range of activities and the time you came back, I told you yesterday. Mrs. Smith smiled at Xiao Yao.
"I didn't go out, I had already walked around yesterday. Xiao Yao shook his head and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll go upstairs and go back to my room to read." β
"Okay, there you go. Mrs. Smith nodded and smiled.
Looking at Xiao Yao's figure going upstairs, Samion's brows furrowed again. In the supermarket just now, Xiao Yao behaved cheerfully and generously in front of the boss, which made Samian have a lot of changes in him. I didn't expect that as soon as I got home, I was angry with the nerd again. After dinner, she went upstairs to her room and read a book, was the book so beautiful? She, Sarmien Smith, had a headache when she saw a book.
"Sammy, I'm telling you, it's actually Janβ" Dean, who was sitting on the sidelines, said to Samion with great interest.
"Not interested. Sarmeon interrupted Dean impatiently and got up and went upstairs to his room.
"I'm interested," Elena on the other side said excitedly, "Dean, you know any secrets about Young, tell me." β
"Go, ask Yang yourself. Dean said as he rolled his eyes at Elena.
"But my mother told me not to bother Jan when I was old," Elena said with a look of grievance. (To be continued.) )
