Chapter 43: The President Who Can't Read
One night, after school.
I stood alone in the hallway outside the classroom, leaning against the wall, waiting for the president to arrive.
The president came over. I beckoned to him—
"President! Come here, come here! ”
"What?"
"President, stretch out your hand." I told him, a little excited.
"What are you going to do?" He asked warily. If you're so careful, shouldn't you be tricked often? But I'm not trying to fool him.
"You can see it when you put your hand out. Rest assured, it's a good thing. ”
"Dangdangdang—" I placed a piece of chocolate in his palm.
"Don't worry, this one still has a long time before it expires." I haven't forgotten the last time he asked me for chocolate and said it was about to expire.
"Don't tell Lin Haiyuan, I'm bringing it to you alone." I told him.
The last time we were so close to each other gave me something special about the president. I'm starting to care about him more than I used to.
remembered the time when the president asked me for chocolates at the sports meeting, and then Lin Haiyuan also said that the president liked these things? So I decided to give him a piece.
Last time, I gave Lin Haiyuan a piece of chocolate, but I didn't ask him to return it to me, but in the end, he gave it to the president. Since he doesn't want it, what's the point of me bringing it to him again? It's better to give it to someone who will receive it.
The president took it. Although he didn't seem happier, I was happy in my heart: this time I finally liked what I had sent, and this time it was the right one.
Turning back to the classroom, I returned to my seat in the back row and continued to wait for Lin Haiyuan.
I sat down, my eyes looking at the book, but my mind was elsewhere. The president didn't come along, so where was he? Did you bother Lin Haiyuan again?
I raised my head to look for the president, but I didn't see him beside Lin Haiyuan.
Hey? Where has he gone?
When I looked around, I saw that the president was chatting with a few girls in the first row. They talk and laugh and look natural. How could the president talk to them? If you've known each other before, why haven't you ever seen the president say hello to them before?
The president and they probably didn't know each other before. Tonight, the president probably took the initiative to talk to them, as if the president had come to talk to me on his own.
I didn't pay much attention to it, and continued to read my book.
After sitting in the back row for a few days, I gradually settled into life here and became familiar with the people around me.
The two classmates sitting in front of me were in the same class as me in the first half of the first year of high school, and we have known each other for a long time.
The classmate sitting in front of me is named Zhang Chufan, and he is a relatively handsome boy in our class. He writes well, and is recognized as the best handwriting student in the class. In the first half of the first year of high school, he took the initiative to say hello to me, and now he is in the same class again, and has become the front and back table, I naturally hope to get along with him better, and after feeling familiar, I tentatively call him "Chu Fan" to show kindness.
Sitting in front of me to the left was the classmate nicknamed "Pumpkin". He was an outgoing person who loved to talk to people, and within a few days I was talking to him about all sorts of topics. I used to see him and Lin Haiyuan together in physical education class, and they probably had a close relationship. Could it be that they are also junior high school classmates? Then he must know the president, too.
So I found an opportunity to ask him-
"Pumpkin, do you have a good relationship with Lin Haiyuan?"
"Yes, Lin Haiyuan and I are junior high school classmates, and we are very iron 'brothers'." He replied
"I see. Then you and the president are also junior high school classmates? ”
"yes."
"What kind of person do you think the president is?"
"Hmm...... I think the president is a bit like Jia Baoyu. ”
"Jia Baoyu? Why? ”
"When he was in junior high school, he didn't like to talk to us boys very much, but he talked better with girls. If we boys met him on the road and greeted him, he wouldn't even pay attention. ”
"I see, it seems to be eh. But why does he always come to Lin Haiyuan now? Did he have a good relationship with Lin Haiyuan when he was in junior high school? ”
"Well, I don't think so."
Is that so? It turns out that the president likes to hang out with girls. In this way, he used to talk to me well, and he was not afraid to be close to me, and the fact that he had recently talked to other girls in our class made sense.
The president has always given me a mysterious feeling. Because his behavior is so different and incomprehensible. Now, I feel like I know him better. However, I still feel that there are still many things about him that I don't understand.
