Chapter 19: How Long Have You Been Experiencing This Symptom?
The fair-skinned slender fingers were raised, and a strand of broken hair on the side of the sideburns was gently brushed, and the corners of the girl's slightly raised eyes were charming and vivid: "According to the consistent routine of campus dramas, when the heroine can't erase the blackboard, the male protagonist should come to help immediately, right?" β
As she spoke, she distantly stuck something from her fingertips to her hair.
Chen Jiayu was silent for a moment and asked, "...... How long have you been experiencing this symptom? β
"What?"
"Fantasize about being the heroine of a school drama."
Cai Jiayi didn't care about his occasional poisonous tongue: "Even if the reality is not a campus drama, as a tablemate, you should also carry forward your gentlemanly demeanor just now and take the initiative to lend a hand." β
Chen Jiayu didn't speak, just glanced at her, and then at the boy on the podium who was busy wiping the blackboard.
Meaning, someone has already made a gentleman.
I'm not going to join in the fun.
Cai Jiayi pursed her lips, didn't say anything more, and started to tidy up the tables and chairs with him.
After a while, Chen Jiayu inadvertently turned his head and found something.
"Hey."
"What?"
"Your hair is ...... There are confetti. β
"Huh? What? She blinked, looking at him in confusion, as if she hadn't heard clearly.
"In the hair, there are confetti." Chen Jiayu pointed at her and repeated.
"Really?" Cai Jiayi was stunned for a moment, "Maybe I accidentally got it when I was sweeping the floor just now." β
She raised her hand and slapped it all over the place in her hair.
"Now, okay?"
"It's still there."
Chen Jiayu stared at the stubborn little piece of paper and hesitated, "Don't move, I'll take it down for you." β
Cai Jiayi: "Oh. With a sigh, it didn't move.
Chen Jiayu's left hand slowly approached her, and at the same time, his thumb and index finger gently pinched it, twisting it between his two fingers, and at the same time, the soft touch from the girl's hair from the fingertips made his heart suddenly feel a little strange.
Subconsciously looked at her, she lowered her eyes, her eyelashes were very long, like two rows of black feather fans, slightly upturned.
With just one glance, he retracted his gaze, took off the piece of paper, and casually flicked it into the trash can not far away, "Okay." β
Then he turned around and went back to work.
Behind him, Cai Jiayi raised her hand, her fingertips gently brushed over the place he had touched, where there seemed to be a little warmth, and the corners of her lips quietly curved.
β¦β¦
When two people work together, the speed is naturally much faster, and it doesn't take long for the tables and chairs of the two groups to be placed neatly.
Chen Jiayu said thank you to Cai Jiayi beside her.
After all, this is not the other party's job, it is purely a help.
Cai Jiayi smiled: "No thanks, in exchange, next time you have to take the initiative to help me erase the blackboard." β
Chen Jiayu: "......"
It turns out that there are conditions attached to helping.
It was he who thought of her too kindly.
Woman, heh.
When you're done, you're ready to leave.
Chen Jiayu picked up his schoolbag and said hello to the rest of the people, "I'll go first." β
"Old Chen, let's stay!"
Hou Zifan carried a black garbage bag in each hand, and ran over with a fart. "I'm going downstairs to throw out the trash, you can get a bag for me too."
As soon as he got closer, Chen Jiayu smelled some kind of strange and disgusting smell from one of the bags, which was so indescribable that it made people want to die on the spot, and immediately subconsciously took two steps back away from Hou Zifan, with a look of disgust.
"Damn, what's in your bag, it stinks."
Hou Zifan scolded and scolded: "I don't know which fool put half a bowl of hot dry noodles in his drawer, it should have been leftover from yesterday, on such a hot day, I don't know how to throw it, it's all rancid." β
Chen Jiayu: "......"
When he went downstairs, Chen Jiayu still kept a safe distance from Hou Zifan with a look of resistance.
Hou Zifan chattered there as he walked: "Do you say that I am a bad back, I will take the exam tomorrow, and I won't even have time to review, but I still have to do duty, wasting half a day." And this stupid fork that didn't throw away the hot dry noodles, Lao Tzu is really convinced, it's so unhygienic, it can make people stink......"
Chen Jiayu covered his nose and said perfunctorily: "Relax the dim sum, maybe tomorrow you will perform extraordinarily?" β
Hou Zifan's eyes lit up, "Lao Chen, do you really think I can perform beyond the norm tomorrow?" β
Chen Jiayu's face was expressionless, "Fake!" Hurry up, it stinks! β
Hou Zifan: "......"
As soon as I got out of the school building, I found that the only two garbage cans next to it were full and almost overflowing.
After all, they are not the only ones who are engaged in hygiene.
The two of them had to carry garbage bags and walk to the cafeteria across the playground - there were two garbage cans nearby, and when the garbage cans in the school building were full, the students had to cross the playground and throw their garbage there.
In the middle of the playground, a few boys were playing basketball, divided into two teams, running around, fighting fiercely, and shouting from time to time.
"Pass it to me, pass it to me!"
"Optimistic about XXX!"
"Hurry up!"
β¦β¦
Hou Zifan looked at them as he walked, and continued to say: "Alas, our school only has a basketball court, and the second middle school and the eighth middle school have football fields. I knew that I would have taken a few more exams and would have gone to the second middle school. You can also use the eighth middle school, they are all provincial keys, and the score line of the high school entrance examination is similar to that of our school. At first, my mother said that the experimental high school was close to home, so I can't find a venue to play football now. β
ββ¦β¦ I really envy sports students, it's much easier than us, and there is still time to play in the third year of high school......"
Halfway through the words, in the oblique stab, a rather tall boy with a black hairband on his head turned his back to them sideways, and ran upside down, he didn't seem to notice Hou Zifan behind him, just stared at the ball, and shouted loudly: "Pass the pass, give me the ball!" β
Chen Jiayu wanted to reach out to pull Hou Zifan, but he was already a step too late, and Hou Zifan himself didn't have time to dodge.
Bang!
The other party's back bumped into Hou Zifan firmly.
Hou Zifan fell to the ground and let out a muffled snort.
The boy who bumped into Hou Zifan was also a little surprised, and glanced back.
But in the next second, his attention returned to the basketball coming from his teammates, and he only threw a sentence backwards lightly: "Sorry brother, I didn't notice you behind." β
Just reach for the ball.
Unexpectedly, someone was faster than him, and in the blink of an eye, the ball was already in someone else's hand.
The hairband boy was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Chen Jiayu in surprise, "Hey, what are you doing?" β
Chen Jiayu didn't answer, and looked at Hou Zifan with dark eyes: "Monkey, how is it, is there anything wrong?" β
Hou Zifan stood up with grinned teeth, and raised his left armβthere was a piece of skin broken at the elbow, red and oozing blood, which should have been scratched by the rough ground of the playground when he fell.
Seeing this, Chen Jiayu suddenly remembered something.
In every previous reincarnation today, Hou Zifan went to throw out the garbage alone, and when he came back, his arm was injured. Chen Jiayu also asked what was going on, and the explanation given by Hou Zifan was that he accidentally fell.
At that time, Chen Jiayu did not doubt it.
But now that I think about it, could it be that Hou Zifan's previous injuries were also caused by being knocked down?
