The Younger Brother Next Door is a School Grass
Finding that he didnât block Zhou Sisi account, Lu Xi quickly clicked âDeleteâ the post in embarrassment.
Within seconds, the notification bar pops up âYou have received a WeChat message.â
Lu Xi, whose heartbeat was unstable, almost slipped off his phone.
Well⦠it couldnât have been from Zhou Sisi.
With this in mind, he poked the message interface.
Huang Zhou: Why did you delete the circle of friends?
Huang Zhou: [Screenshot of voting page]
Huang Zhou: Why? Are you kidding me?
ââ¦â¦â
Which pot should not be opened and which pot should be mentioned, Lu Xi threw a red envelope, and said ârollâ.
(*** Idiomâ Itâs used to indicate that someone is saying or doing something that shouldnât be mentioned in front of others, or bringing up a sensitive subject, which means to find trouble for others.)
âThe lamb kidneys are almost gone, how about a bunch?â Pan De shouted, âAâxi?â
Lu Xi stuffed his cell phone back into his pocket, ââ¦â¦ no.â
âBrother Xi seemed to be distracted?â The person with the No. 4 jersey raised the dice cup and swayed around. âLetâs play a few games!â
Lu Xi took a sip of iced coconut milk. âYou guys play.â
The fireworks, the smell of barbecues, the sound of chatter, the riverside night-snack stand filled with delightful dinner of drinking and chatting.
This group of teenagers blended in and squandered a lot of their summer vacation time after graduating from junior high school.
âIn a few days Iâm going to go to Y province to play. Are any of you guys interested in forming a team?â The one with the No. 10 jersey shouted.
Someone asked. âHow many days?â
âWeâll go freely, letâs not go with the troupe, we have to play for at least seven or eight days.â
âI want to go! Iâll go back tonight and ask my parents if theyâll let me go.â
âI want to go there and have a little drink at the Old Town Bar.â
âOh, my God, you want to go to the bar? Count me in, Iâll go too.â
A group of people chatted and roughly determined the number of travelers and their itinerary.
âDonât worry! Donât forget to ask Brother Aâxi!â
âBrother Xi, are you going?â
Lu Xi stopped playing with his drink cup and gave a lazy âahâ, âWhere to?â
He had been thinking about Zhou Sisi and didnât pay attention to what they were talking about.
The person with the No. 10 jersey: âWe plan to go to Y province to play in a few days, what do you say?â
Lu Xi suppressed the messy thoughts like weeds.
A few days ago, Ms. Xu asked him if he wanted to go on a trip with his friends or grandmother. Lu Xi lowered his eyelids, âIâll think about it and reply tomorrow morning.â
Zhou Sisi did not expect that she would be qualified as a campus ambassador.
Receiving a notification from the school news and broadcasting department she was a little dazed.
When she arrived at the class the next morning, she was held by the excited Yi Ting. âSisi, youâve become an ambassador! It has been announced by the official account!â
She laughed so hard that one could not see her eyes, she was even more excited than she had been elected.
âWellâ¦why me?â Zhou Sisi put down her schoolbag. âMy votes have not been the highest, right?â
Yi Ting: âI donât know, whatever, the result is the most important thing.â
âI heard that someone reported Gong Yao and Li Zhiqi.â Guo Qin in the seat threw a sentence.
Yi Ting asked: âWhat to report? Report them⦠in love? These two people donât seem to have any contact?â
Guo Qin was doing his homework with his head down.
âHey, donât stop in half, say everything! Itâs a bit of a drag!â Yi Ting took his draft. âDonât write it!â
Zhou Sisi quietly stopped the impatient Yi Ting.
Guo Qin, who had a good temper, looked at Zhou Sisi, treating Yi Ting as transparent as he said, âSomeone reported Gong Yao and Li Zhiqi for swiping votes.â
âDamn it! They actually swiped their votes?â Yi Ting was shocked.
âSwipe votes?â Zhou Sisi was also a little surprised.
âThey did swipe the votes.â Guo Qin continued. âAfter checking, they cleaned up Gong Yaoâs 400-odd votes and Li Zhiqiâs 500 votes. The teacher in charge of the audition disqualified them from the competition.â
âIt serves them right! Let them do these dirty tricks!â Yi Ting clapped her hands and asked, âReported well! By the way, who reported it?â
Guo Qin was not very sure, âIt seems that a friend from the broadcasting department revealed that it was a man from the junior high school.â
âWow, which junior is so energetic?!â Yi Ting took out her mobile phone and went to the post bar to try to find out if there was any relevant discussion.
Guo Qin sternly obstructed: âDonât play with your mobile phone here.â
Yi Ting: âCut, Iâm playing with my mobile phone, how can you control me?â
Guo Qin: âDonât stand on the side, it seriously affects my study.â
Yi Ting: âIs this aisle engraved with your name or contracted by you?â
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Zhou Sisi pulled the corner of Yi Tingâs clothes and said softly, âStop playing.â
It was really not appropriate to stand in the classroom and play with a mobile phone.
âOkayâ¦â Yi Ting also knew that she was wrong. It was just that whenever she met Guo Qin, she couldnât help but wonder, who asked him to rob her excellent tablemate Sisi.
âThere is one more minute away from class, itâs time for you to go back to your seat.â Zhou Sisi took out a small bag of cookies from the table. âDo you want to eat?â
Yi Ting instantly changed from cloudy to sunny, âYes! Youâve baked cookies again!â Sisiâs snacks were all very delicious.
Zhou Sisi smiled, waited for Yi Ting to leave, and took out the Chinese textbook to prepare for class.
Aware of the sight on the right, Zhou Sisi paused and took out a small bag of cookies. âWould you like to try it?â
âThank you.â Guo Qin took it solemnly.
After such an episode, Zhou Sisi had a little guess about who the informant was. It was like a duckâs feathers gliding through the thin water, leaving no trace.
It was July.
The seniors in the third year of high school graduated.
Zhou Sisi and the others were upgraded to the most âoldâ seniors in the school this year.
The frequency of the word âsenior 3â was used by teachers more often, and exercises and test papers doubled.
The summer was long, and there was no summer vacation for the prospective seniors of Huali 3 Middle School.
At a grade meeting, the head of the department first praised the results of the previous yearâs entrance exams, then changed his tone and warned anxiously that there was not much time left for this yearâs class.
âAll students must seize every second of these 310 days, follow the team closely, and study!â
âHow can the third year of high school not be hard? I understand that some students are day students. Now is a critical moment. Starting today, day students are all required to stay for night study as well!â
Zhou Sisi did so without any objection, eating dinner at school and studying in class until 9:50 every day.
Outside the building, people sang about summer day after day.
It was an ordinary school day in early September when Zhou Sisi met Lu Xi again.
The teenager had tanned a little, and seemed to be a little taller. Even though he was wearing a military training suit, he still grabbed the attention of others while waiting in line.
Wait a minuteâ¦
How come Lu Xi training in the Third Middle School? Didnât he go to First middle school?
âWhich class will we go to first?â Yuan Xuchao slowed down and waited for Zhou Sisi, who was a few steps behind.
The two campus ambassadors were now representing the school and bringing water to the instructors of each class.
Zhou Sisi came back to her senses, âLetâs start from the nearest (2) class.â
âAlright.â Yuan Xuchao said, âIs the bag too heavy? Iâll get it?â
âItâs okay, itâs not heavy.â Zhou Sisi changed hand to carry it.
It was a sunny day, and the sun was blazing at 3:00.
The wind blew through the field, turning it into a heat wave that made it hot.
High school freshmen were standing in the sun.
Many people noticed a man and a woman walking from afar, both wearing school uniforms, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful.
âHello, instructor, the school provided mineral water for you.â Yuan Xuchao brought water to an instructor from class (2).
Zhou Sisi handed it to another instructor. âYouâve worked hard.â
The two instructors thanked them.
The two ambassadors, Yuan Xuchao and Zhou Sisiâmainly Yuan Xuchao had a few polite conversations with the instructors, and then turned to the next class phalanx.
The leading instructor of the first grade (2) class received condolences and was in a good mood, and let the students rest for a while.
The classmates were like untenable skins, squatting, sitting, writhing.
âThe two who just came are seniors, right?
âIsnât that nonsense.â
âTheyâre very good-looking. What are their names? What grade?â
âThe third year of high school. The seniorâs name is Yuan Xuchao, and heâs school grass.â
âHeâs the school grass?â Someone said weakly, âI donât think this senior is very handsome.â
âAgree. If you want to talk about handsome, Lu Xi from our class is more handsome.â
âShh⦠keep it down. I agree with you.â
A small group of girls whispered to each other.
Lu Xi, who was in the center of the topic, raised his head and took a sip of lemon tea, screwed on the lid, put his hand on the leg, and heard two or three boysâ discussionsâ â the boys were no less gossipy than the girls, and they didnât even cover up.
ââ¦â¦ is so cute.â
âThe temperament is also very good. Hey, how come thereâs no way to send water to our hard-working classmates?â
âDream on, the school wonât be so generous?â
âHuh⦠Iâm exhausted.â Pan De came to Lu Xiâs side, âThe one who just came isâ¦â
âItâs hot, stay away from me.â Lu Xi said in disgust.
Pan De half swatted away, âSister Sisi was here just now.â
âThen?â Lu Xiâs eyelids were half-drooping, a little tired and seemingly indifferent.
âSister Sisi wearing a school uniform and a short skirt looked good, her legs are whiteâ¦hiss! Why did you suddenly hit me?â Pan De gasped.
Lu Xi lazily retracted his hands, âOh, stretch.â
Just then a girl in behind said. âThe senior and sister are campus ambassadors, huh? Itâs a good match to stand together!â Because of excitement the voice was uncontrollable and a little loud.
Match? Where to match?
Lu Xi was unhappy, and the hard drink bottle squeaked.
He regretted helping Zhou Sisi to run for that campus ambassador.
No, if I had known that ambassadors were limited to one male quotaâ¦
The hell with it.
