Qingteng's Mind - Middle School Era

Chapter 1318 Hearing
"Let's go."

Lin Xiaoyao stood up from the ground and shook his numb feet.

In order to avoid the "mushroom head", he squatted at the intersection for more than ten minutes, and almost pulled out all the grass on the roadside.

It wasn't easy for Anan either, as he had been standing with his back to the "Mushroom Head" for more than ten minutes.

Ke Mengnan nodded and sighed: "Okay."

The person had already walked away. Before and after he got off the bus, she never looked back at him. To be exact, after she let that "noisy" girl approach him, she had been looking out the window.

I don’t know if I can meet her again next time.

"That girl has gone far away." Lin Xiaoyao clapped his hands and glanced towards North Street. "It's really not easy for us."

Ke Mengnan sighed softly: "Yes."

It was indeed not easy. We stood in the wind for more than two hours, were together for less than forty minutes, and were even disturbed by that "noisy" girl.

Perhaps, he should find a way to "encounter" her by chance.

"What are you looking at?" Lin Xiaoyao turned sideways and looked over. "Don't worry, the car has already gone far away. You can't ride this car anymore."

Ke Mengnan nodded.

"Hmm? You agreed?" Lin Xiaoyao looked unconvinced and put his hand on Ke Mengnan's shoulder. "What's going on? You haven't been acting normal lately. What's going on?"

"You're overthinking it," Ke Mengnan pushed Lin Xiaoyao's hand away and pulled the backpack on his shoulder, "Get on the bus two stops early, there will be a seat."

"That's right," Lin Xiaoyao nodded, and then looked over again, "But this time we didn't sit down, we gave up our seats."

"Give up your seat," Ke Mengnan said with a slight smile, "You have to have a seat first."

"You're right," Lin Xiaoyao winked at Ke Mengnan, "The girl I met this time was too bold. Last time I met a foodie, and every time we meet, there's a different story."

Different? Ke Mengnan glanced sideways.

"Am I wrong?" Lin Xiaoyao snorted and laughed, "Is it that hard to agree with me?"

Ke Mengnan said nothing and walked straight forward.

"Don't act cool in front of me, I'm not one of those little girls," Lin Xiaoyao pouted and followed, "Hey, wait for me, walk slowly, what if that girl is waiting for you at the corner ahead?!"

Ke Mengnan paused, then walked forward again.

It doesn't matter, he doesn't care about that girl.

"You are such a boring person," Lin Xiaoyao shook his head, "You have no sense of humor at all. It would be better if Zheng Yifan was here."

Ke Mengnan glanced sideways.

"Just pretend I didn't say anything." Lin Xiaoyao immediately shut up. They had agreed to come together, but yesterday he said he couldn't come and wanted to go home.

Well, he is not Zheng Yifan’s aunt, so he has no control over whether she comes or not.

We chatted casually as we walked across North Street, passed the bookstore, turned left, and at the next intersection, we waved, one heading north and the other continuing west.

Before he even walked into his own yard, Lin Xiaoyao could already smell the fragrance of food. His mother was truly worthy of her reputation. No matter what time he got home, there was always food for him.

Lin Xiaoyao walked quickly into the yard and ran towards the kitchen. Before he stepped onto the stairs, he heard a burst of laughter coming from inside the house.

"Eat slowly. You are a teacher now."

"Twenty-two years from now, I will still be a child in front of my aunt."

"Cousin?" Lin Xiaoyao walked in quickly, "Why are you here?"

"I came here by bus," Yan Xu paused while tearing the meat, "Why did you come back just now?"

Without waiting for Lin Xiaoyao to answer, Yan Xu smiled and said, "That's right. The college entrance examination is coming soon, and the academic workload is quite heavy."

Lin Xiaoyao smiled, put his bag aside, and sat down: "Brother, how come you have time to come here? Are you doing an internship? You..."

"Go wash your hands first, then come and eat," Yan Mo interrupted Lin Xiaoyao, "You are so old, do you still need to be reminded?"

"Okay, okay," Lin Xiaoyao stood up, "Brother, I'll be right there."

Yan Xu smiled and nodded, tearing the meat in his hand: "Go ahead."

"Brother, I'm here." Lin Xiaoyao waved his hands and sat next to Yan Xu, "Brother, you..."

"Let's talk after we finish eating," Yan Mo glared at his son, "Don't you understand why we shouldn't talk while eating?"

"Let's talk after we finish eating," Yan Xu nodded and stuffed the meat into his mouth. "I'm leaving tomorrow, there's no rush."

"Okay." Lin Xiaoyao nodded in response, buried his head in eating, and said no more words, but he heard his mother's voice coming.

"Xu'er, eat slowly, there's more in the pot." Lin Xiaoyao looked up and saw his mother looking at his cousin beside him with a smile on her face. He pouted, lowered his head, picked up some food and ate.

"Xu'er, are you going to work soon?"

"Ah."

"Have you found a place to practice?"

"Ah."

"Have you decided on your girlfriend?"

"Hmm, hm?" Yan Xu raised his head instantly, holding unchewed meat in his mouth, and said vaguely, "Put your studies first, put your work first. Don't worry about it."

"Oh," Yan Mo nodded with a smile, "Eat your food."

What does mother mean? Lin Xiaoyao's eyes flickered, and then he lowered his head. No matter what it meant, it had nothing to do with him.

When the sun was setting, Lin Xiaoyao and Yan Xu sat in the yard.

"How's your schoolwork? It shouldn't be bad," Yan Xu answered the question right after he started. "Are there any interesting things happening in your school?"

Hmm? Are you trying to trick me? Lin Xiaoyao pretended to think about it seriously and shook his head: "No, I don't care about anything else. I only read books written by sages."

"That's good," Yan Xu nodded, "I'm going to Yunling Middle School for internship."

"Oh?" Lin Xiaoyao pretended to be surprised. "This is a good thing. I got what I wanted. It's worth celebrating. Take me out for a delicious meal tonight."

"No problem," Yan Xu said with a smile, "Call Xiaonan along as well."

"It's different when I'm working," Lin Xiaoyao squeezed the glass on the table, "It's more generous!"

Yan Xu raised his eyebrows: "Of course, I am generous to my own brother."

"So, brother, how was your internship? Did you meet Principal Cao? Any interesting stories?"

Lin Xiaoyao's series of questions made Yan Xu very satisfied, and it was not a wasted trip!

"Not bad, Principal Cao, I see him every day, he really is my idol," Yan Xu said with emotion, "there are so many interesting stories."

The elegant and high-profile teacher Ding, the delicate teacher Zhu who is as delicate as a doll, the bookish and gentle teacher Tan, and the kind and cheerful teacher Li who answers every question, Yan Xu listed them one by one like they were his treasures. Finally, when it comes to Su Qingyi's idol - Zhao Yun, he is calm and composed but not to be underestimated!
Lin Xiaoyao listened very carefully and interjected from time to time.

Yan Xu spoke excitedly, from the midterm exam to the Chinese language scores, to Class 5 () of Senior High School, and to the student who made him so proud—He Shiling.

He recounted everything he had seen with his own eyes and heard from others, adding fuel to the fire.

Lin Xiaoyao listened and laughed: "This girl is an ugly one, right? Otherwise, why is there so much trouble?"

"Not really," Yan Xu shook his head, "She's a very pretty girl, with both talent and beauty!"

Lin Xiaoyao was stunned: "Student He, you are just like me, oh no, just like us, brother, you can rely on your looks but you choose to rely on your talent."

Yan Xu also laughed.

When dusk fell, Yan Xu received a call and left.

Lin Xiaoyao curled his lips: "Brother, you don't want to treat me to a meal!"

My mother slapped me and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Is your brother that kind of person? The call from the school must be about work. Come and help with the cooking."

The next afternoon, Lin Xiaoyao came to find Ke Mengnan and told him the interesting story he heard yesterday.

"Are you listening to me?"

"I'm listening," Ke Mengnan turned the book in his hand over again, "Go on."

Xiaoyao's cousin actually went to Yunling Middle School for an internship?
"Isn't this girl interesting?" Lin Xiaoyao took a sip of the water on the table. "Our school is not as interesting as Yunling Middle School."

"Yes," Ke Mengnan responded, "Which grade does Teacher Yan teach?"

"It's said to be the second year of high school," Lin Xiaoyao thought for a moment, "I think it's Class 5."

Ke Mengnan paused while flipping through the book: "What's that girl's name?"

"It seems to be He something?" Lin Xiaoyao put down the cup, "He something, eh, this name, why does it sound familiar?"

Ke Mengnan suppressed his emotions and calmly turned a page of the book: "If you say it many times, you will naturally become familiar with it."

Lin Xiaoyao nodded: "That's right, let's go home."

"it is good."

Ke Mengnan watched Lin Xiaoyao leave without looking back for a long time. What a coincidence, Teacher Yan turned out to be her internship teacher?
