Chapter 3: I'm Skeptical of You
"Students, the moment you enter this high school, no, to be precise, the moment you receive the admission letter of our Yunhai Science and Technology Middle School, you will have only one goal in the next three years of your life - the college entrance examination! You have come to our department through the single-plank bridge of thousands of troops in the high school entrance examination, and everyone must know that our Yunhai Middle School is the best high school in the city, and it can be said that there is no one, and you ......" Wang Xiu, the head teacher, made an impassioned opening speech on the podium.
Whether or not the speech came from his heart or was a clichΓ© that was eaten all over the world, it had already deeply touched the crowd below.
There are those who sit up straight and prick up their ears to listen attentively, and there are those who take out small notebooks and pens to record meticulously, and even one or two tears are about to escape or have already escaped from their eyes.
But among these people who were moved and inspired, there was no Xu Xuanyue.
She listened very calmly, and even lowered her head from time to time to reply to the message, for two reasons.
First, she didn't study hard to get into this school at all, but her father spent money to find a relationship to send it in.
In her concept, learning has always been a very boring and boring thing, especially in science subjects, she hates and even hates those complicated formulas and a lot of calculations, thinking that numbers are the most impersonal things in the world, unable to reason, unreasonable, wrong is wrong, black and white is complete, and her way of life from childhood to adulthood is completely contrary.
Second, her heart is now bored with a lot of anger, a lot! I don't want to load other emotions into it for the time being. She lowered her head and secretly gritted her teeth, her nostrils dilated, sulking, and squinted at his tablemate Ke Yuhan.
Ke Yuhan was not listening to the lecture, but was still reading the book he brought.
The more Xu Xuanyue thought about it, the more angry she became, saying that she felt that he was really stupid enough to be quiet.
It was clear that he wasn't going to see me, she thought to herself.
Here's why: while everyone was frantically looking for their seats to find their new table mates to chat with, he continued to read his book in the back unhurriedly, but this was when he knew that his table mate was me! Because he knew that it was my school bag, and he knew to give it to me after he sat down in his seat in advance, so one of the reasons why he read the book in the back was that he didn't want to contact me for the time being! The proof is that he just threw my schoolbag and gave me a hard dismount, and so far he hasn't said a word to me except for a self-introduction!
I grew so big, and I have always been able to stand up by being approachable and easy to get along with.
No matter how emotional intelligence is, how to behave in the world, how to look, where have you been treated like this! No wonder Su Xin said he was a weirdo! She thought to herself, and the hand holding the phone clenched slightly.
However, after thinking about it, he did help himself with the schoolbag and help himself, no matter what others do, in this regard, he should also repay his personal favor.
Xu Xuanyue turned her head and glanced at the title of the book - "The Kite Runner". Suddenly, her eyes lit up, she had also read this book, although she had only skimmed dozens of pages, but at least it was an entry point!
She glanced up at the teacher, Teacher Wang Xiu pinched her waist with one hand, and shook her other hand in the air and emphasized: "Students, the college entrance examination is definitely an extremely important turning point for most of you!" If you don't grasp the ...... properly"
Xu Xuanyue took out the small mirror she was carrying, combed her hair, lowered her body to the right side, and said in a suppressed voice: "Classmate Ke? β
Ke Yuhan, who heard the voice, turned over slightly, saw a pair of big eyes staring at him, pursed his lips slightly to express a smile, and then took the smile back. He lowered his voice and asked, "Is there something wrong?" β
"It's nothing, it's just that the book you read, it's actually ......," she blinked. I've seen it too. β
Ke Yuhan frowned slightly when she heard this, and her eyes moved away from her delicate face.
"I'm sorry, maybe it's not polite to say that, but I'm skeptical about the truth of this proposition, that is, your statement." He smiled his way again and then took it back.
Xu Xuanyue's eyes widened, and her head tilted a little.
Peng! A loud slap on the table on the podium startled both of them, and they shuddered and looked up sharply.
"Nope! Want! Put! Abandon! It's a top priority in high school! You are no worse than others! The head teacher put away the hand that had just slapped the table, bent halfway, and spread his hands out again and shouted in a low voice: "When you get the admission letter in three years, you will definitely come back to thank me, because ......"
After realizing that it was a false alarm, Xu Xuanyue tilted her head and squeezed out a smile and asked, "But, why?" Did I tell a lie? She was puzzled, and her eyes widened and her signature smile waited for his answer.
Ke Yuhan coughed lightly, took a breath, bookmarked the bookclip, and then turned his head and said, "Please don't be angry, because I'm going to tell you about my analysis of you, from the time you entered the classroom until now, ......"
He frowned, raised his left wrist to look at the time, and then looked up at Xu Xuanyue's eyes full of doubts and said, "What I have observed in about 2 hours and 24 minutes is a summary and analysis of your personal self-concept and opinion. I can explain why I don't believe you, but based on my own experience over the years, this efficient method of analysis often causes discomfort in the other party, which leads to tension and unhappiness in the social communication relationship between the two people, and even threatens personal safety, so I need your assurance and patience to listen to my analysis. β
He lifted his hand, palm inward, and pushed the frame of his glasses with his thumb and middle finger. "Is that okay?" He squeezed out a smile.
It was obvious that Xu Xuanyue was confused when she heard this, and she unconsciously leaned to the left.
She thought to herself, this tablemate, who had known each other for less than an hour since their first words, now showed confidence that she knew herself well and wanted to conduct a so-called "analysis" of herself.
Xu Xuanyue bit her lower lip, hugged her hands in front of her, blinked her eyes twice, and raised Erlang's legs under the table, with a little curiosity and bad premonition, she smiled and said to him: "Well, please advise." β
"So here I go."
Ke Yuhan observed the teacher again, and after confirming that it was safe, he turned around and began his argument.
"Then I'll start with you talking to the girl named Su Xin, before you walk to her, you first walked around the classroom with your mobile phone in both hands on the position of your schoolbag, obviously observing the person you need to develop a social relationship, and then walked towards her with light steps, and then asked her about the class."
Xu Xuanyue, who is usually good at hiding her micro-expressions, opened her mouth slightly in surprise at this time: "Aren't you reading?" β
"Please let me finish." He pressed his right hand down in the air and made a quiet motion.
"But what is seriously inconsistent with your behavior is that the first thing you said to her was to ask if you had gone to the wrong class, and it was obvious that you were lying, which is the first argument."
Ke Yuhan observed Xu Xuanyue's expression, which was not much different from just now, but her eyebrows were raised higher, and her mouth opened slightly to bite her lower lip.
After confirming that he was not at risk of being beaten, Ke Yuhan continued to elaborate on his argument: "Second, in the process of communicating with Su Xin, you said that you panicked because you got up late in the morning, although I don't know why you said that, but this sentence is full of loopholes, no one will wear such delicate but not easy to find makeup in such a hurry in the morning, whether it is eye shadow, lipstick or contact lenses, you are very delicate and comfortable, this is the second argument." β
He changed his tone and continued without raising his head: "When talking to Su Xin about your travel mode, you said that you squeezed the bus to the school, but when your hand was fanning your cheeks, I observed that there were patterns printed on your palms, according to my guess, it should be engraved by the hard material on the handlebar of the bicycle that you have held for a long time." Of course, in fact, 7 minutes before you entered the classroom, when I was sitting by the window reading a book and looking out of the crowd outside the window, I also happened to see a person with a pink schoolbag like you pushing a bicycle towards the school's carport, but I couldn't see his face clearly, but the conversation between you and Su Xin made me believe that that person was you, which is the third argument. To sum up, you told at least three lies in the 8 minutes you communicated with Su Xin, so until I analyze your future words and events, I am not sure whether what you just said about reading this book is true or false. I'm skeptical of you. β
Ke Yuhan raised his head and looked at Xu Xuanyue.
Ke Yuhan has always been unable to understand people's expressions and emotions, he thinks that this is the most difficult thing to analyze in the human world, in his concept, communication has always been a thing that confuses him and has a headache, especially when talking to girls, he can't analyze the meaning of other people's words and expressions in different situations, and thinks that emotions are the most illogical things in the world, changeable, irregular, difficult to analyze, black and white are incomplete, and his lifestyle from childhood to adulthood is completely contrary.
But at least the girl in front of her frowned, her facial muscles stiffened, and she smiled bitterly, which should not be happy.
He felt his throat a little dry, swallowed, licked his lips, looked down at the ground and said, "If I can make you happy, your bag is beautiful." He smiled, not taking it back this time.
"Let's create brilliance together in these three years! Work wonders! The head teacher shouted these words with all his strength raised his hands in the air, and the students who were infected by the atmosphere applauded wildly, and the classroom resounded with thunderous applause.
Ke Yuhan took these applause as encouragement for his detailed analysis just now, closed his eyes slightly and enjoyed it for 3 seconds, then lowered his head and continued to read the book.
The applause in the classroom lasted for a long time, and so was Xu Xuanyue's heart.
