Chapter 22: Your Sweetheart Sits Next to You (4)
In the past, my mother always taught me not to give up easily, where there is a will, there is a way.
I thought to myself, you go and pull out a fool from mentally retarded two, give him a lifetime, and let him solve a partial differential linear equation for me.
It wasn't until later that I deeply realized the essence of this sentence - those who are shameless can get things done.
The desire for the "special gift" in Yu Qiuyun's mouth is like a flood beast, and my strong self-esteem is just a little sheep to be slaughtered in front of it, and the little reason that is left is even more lost by it.
I almost half-knelt at the desk of the senior sister in charge of the radio station, pitifully pinching the corners of her clothes, learning from my grandmother's pug when begging for bones, folding my hands in front of my chest, and constantly shaking up and down to make a "please, please" movement.
Please, please!
No way!
Please, please!
It's not like you don't know how important tonight's meeting is!
Please, please!
You are irresponsible!
Please, please!
So why don't you tell me......
Please, please!
Get up...... Come tomorrow to get your meeting notes......
The senior sister conceded defeat in my voice and begging, and I covered my face and returned victorious in everyone's meaningful gaze.
I hurriedly slipped back to the classroom, where Yu Qiuyun was holding a chalk in one hand and a note in the other, writing the blackboard.
I stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and spread my right hand in front of him: "Take it!"
He stopped and looked at me with confusion, "What?"
"Gifts!" I smiled, "I've taken a leave of absence." β
"Wait a minute," he said with a smile when he saw that I couldn't wait, and when he looked around and saw that no one was looking, he gently approached me, "how did you find out that you were so unreserved after getting acquainted with it?" β
When I saw that he was making fun of me, I was ashamed and angry for a while, and stomped on his white shoe, leaving half a small toe mark impartially.
"This is a return gift for you in advance!" I said angrily, and then I craned my neck and walked over him to look at the dense words on his blackboard, "What is this written?"
He hurriedly opened his arms to block my view: "Don't look yet!"
"Something to do with a gift for me?"
"No! don't worry about it!" he glared and shook his head vigorously.
It must be related, I thought to myself, it's really a good honest child, and when he lies, he always stares unconsciously, and his eyebrows are dyed with nervousness.
I staggered back to my seat, and he stared at me a few more times until I grabbed my workbook and started working on it, then turned around and continued to write on the blackboard.
I hurriedly took the opportunity to look up and peek at it, um? What is he doing copying lyrics at night outside Moscow? Does he teach songs? But every week I learn songs is on Wednesday night, and yesterday I already learned a song "Start Again", what is this going to do today?
Just as he was wondering when the bell rang for class in his childhood, he just happened to drop the last stroke. He cleared his throat and knocked on the lectern: "Students, let's learn a song again today." β
"Didn't you just learn it yesterday?"
"That's right!"
"You teach those songs more old-fashioned than the other, why do you learn so much?"
"Teach you, teach you, what song are you learning today?"
There was chaos among the classmates, some buried themselves in their homework and turned a deaf ear, some complained that the songs arranged by the school were too ugly and unwilling to learn, and some were chattering and urging him to start quickly.
Yu Qiuyun smiled, grabbed a guitar from behind the door, swept the strings, and raised his chin at the blackboard: "I also think yesterday's song was not very good, so let's learn a good one today!"
Tang Jibei slapped the table and stood up, and whistled at Yu Qiuyun with a wicked smile: "This is a must-learn repertoire in our fifth-grade music textbook, who wouldn't!
"You sing, you sing!"
"After twisting this song, let's come back to the love of the slender man!"
The pot exploded under the podium again.
"Don't don't, don't!" Tang Jibei waved his hand, and said with a meaningful smile: "If I want to be ugly, I can say it at any time, but this is the confession time of the Cultural Committee, our Cultural Committee has always been cautious in words and deeds, and today I took advantage of someone's birthday, and finally took the courage to be brave, and dared to sing a love song to someone at the risk of being cleaned up by the old class, let's cooperate!"
"Cooperate!"
"Cooperate!"
"The old class is coming, let's take it!"
There was a coaxing whistle from the audience, Yu Qiuyun scratched her head in embarrassment and confusion, and I also blushed, for fear that if Tang Jibei continued to make such a fuss, it would not only make everyone known, but also might attract the head teacher, so don't even think about hearing my gift again.
In a hurry, I lost my mind, and learned Tang Jibei to slap the table: "Don't make trouble!
Everyone was silent for two seconds, but immediately erupted into a louder sigh.
"Oops! Someone can't wait!"
I chuckled in my heart, and instantly regretted itβif it had nothing to do with me, it didn't matter if I listened to it or not. I am so unreserved, I am undoubtedly not self-defeating.
Yu Qiuyun also looked at me stunned, and I buried my head in shame and despair.
"Okay, okay!" Tang Jibei, who was the culprit, hurriedly jumped out to solve the siege, "The Cultural Committee loves me, and this song is also singing me, wish me a happy birthday in advance, okay? Come on, learn songs and learn songs!"
The sighing coaxing gradually turned into a low sneer and whisper, Yu Qiuyun woke up like a dream, hurriedly moved a stool, adjusted the angle of the guitar, and pointed to the lyrics on the blackboard: "The same way, I'll sing it in its entirety first, and then everyone will follow me to learn sentence by sentence." β
Everyone but me laughed silently, and he loosened his shoulders and glanced at me gently.
I went back and smiled, his fingertips running over the strings.
Late at night, the garden was silent, only the wind sang softly
How nice the night is, how hearty it is, in this charming night
β¦β¦
My sweetheart sat next to me and watched me silently
I want to say to you, but I am embarrassed, how many words remain in my heart
β¦β¦
I hope that from now on you and I will never forget the evening on the outskirts of Moscow
β¦β¦
I looked at his lips one by one, and in the gray and white of winter, they were particularly scarlet.
I looked at the gentle and deep ocean hidden under his long eyelashes, and all that was left in my ears was his low, gentle singing.
In the past, I only felt that his timbre was magnetic, and there always seemed to be many stories hidden in the songs he sang, but today I know that he can still sing an ordinary love song as affectionate as poetry.
The last chord fell, and the originally noisy classroom was completely silent, and the silence was audible.
"I'll ...... Let's just dismiss the vase aunt in the next music class, you learn a few Jay Chou, we can follow you!" Tang Jibei was the first to come back to his senses, shook his head and sighed that Yu Qiuyun was simply possessed by his brother, and Andy Lau came in person.
I was still in a daze, but I nodded vigorously in confusion.
"Don't make trouble," Yu Qiuyun grabbed a piece of chalk and threw it towards Tang Jibei, and instantly returned to his normal color and said: "Next, everyone follow me to learn, let's start with the first sentence, sentence by sentence." β
"Don't! We're all familiar with each other before, let's start with the second paragraph!"
Yu Qiuyun turned to look at the blackboard and said blankly: "Which is the second paragraph?"
"It's your sweetheart sitting next to you!" everyone shouted in unison, laughing loudly.
I didn't dare touch my face, I just felt like they were ripe.
The man on the stage scratching his forehead, even though he lowered his face, I could see that they were as red as the ripe tomatoes in the backyard of my hometown.
The shy but smug look was very beautiful, and I tried to hide it, but I couldn't stop the smile that spread at the corner of my mouth.
"Puppy love is a violation of discipline. I was secretly rejoicing when Fang Chaomu quietly leaned out of the aisle and whispered beside me.
You don't have to look at me to imagine the annoying coldness and seriousness on his face at the moment.
But I was surrounded by a soft and warm mass of happiness, and I didn't want to care at all.
Because just tonight, I got one of the best gifts in more than a decade.
