After rebirth, they all moved into my house.

Old Chen touched his hair.

He is an English teacher and rarely communicates with Lu Yuan, mainly because there is nothing much to discuss.

Although Lu Yuan is the secretary of the Youth League branch, his work is only busy at the beginning of the school year, and he will have nothing to do after that.

When it comes to English scores, Xu Ruolin, Gu Jiuyi, and Lu Yuan have always been in the top three in the class, or even in the top three in the grade. There is nothing much to say.

Lu Yuan is a freshman representative and vice president of the student union. He basically doesn't cause trouble, and he is very fortunate to have such a student.

Logically speaking, it was a lucky thing for him to have such a student.

But he had a headache about one thing.

31. Things that make girls happy

When we returned to the classroom, morning reading had already begun.

Lu Yuan entered through the back door, trying not to attract too much attention.

But when he returned to his seat and saw Gu Jiuyi's eyes full of protective desire, Lu Yuan felt guilty for no reason.

"What's wrong? Did Lao Chen say anything to you?" Gu Jiuyi looked Lu Yuan up and down, as if worried that he was injured.

"Sorry, don't worry." Lu Yuan touched Gu Jiuyi's hair, "Read the words, it's morning reading now."

"Yeah." Gu Jiuyi nodded.

Lu Yuan thought that he should delay the matter as long as possible, so that Gu Jiuyi could relax for a while before he could talk about this matter.

If we had gotten to the point right from the start, there would have been no need to even consider asking her to take off the ring.

After all, with Gu Jiuyi's personality, she would definitely not agree to take off the ring easily.

Halfway through the morning reading, Lu Yuan felt that it was about time, so he passed a note to Gu Jiuyi.

It said: "Jiuyi, can you promise me one thing?"

Gu Jiuyi took the note with some doubts, took a look at the contents on it, and smiled softly.

The note was quickly passed back.

Gu Jiuyi’s reply was:

"Okay!"

Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little bit reluctant, but he had to do it.

He passed the note along.

The content of the note is:

"Can you take the ring off?"

Gu Jiuyi saw it.

Her body trembled slightly.

Then she lowered her eyes.

Lu Yuan watched Gu Jiuyi's changes the whole time without saying a word.

After a long time, the girl beside him lowered her right hand.

The pair of white and slender little hands just hung there quietly.

Lu Yuan knew that he needed to hold her hand at this moment.

But he dared not.

He is afraid.

Because he was the one who made Gu Jiuyi sad.

But he knew that if he didn't hold her hand now, he would never have another chance.

Lu Yuan stretched out his left hand and held her white right hand.

Her palms were icy cold, even at normal times, they wouldn't be as icy cold as they were now.

Gu Jiuyi's fingers gently turned, connecting with Lu Yuan's left hand's ten fingers.

It was originally a very ambiguous action, but Lu Yuan felt that Gu Jiuyi's grip on his hand was getting stronger and stronger.

Gu Jiuyi pursed her lips slightly and turned her head away so that Lu Yuan could not see her eyes.

Finally, Lu Yuan sighed and spoke first:

"Jiuyi, if you keep going like this, you will be the only one who feels the pain."

Lu Yuan was telling the truth. He had been trained before, and no matter how hard Gu Jiuyi tried, the pain he felt was far less than Gu Jiuyi's.

"I just want you to know how much pain I'm in right now..." Gu Jiuyi said in a deep voice.

"Sorry." Lu Yuan apologized.

"Please help me take it off."

“…Aren’t you going to ask why?”

Lu Yuan was a little confused.

Gu Jiuyi shook her head and said, "I believe you. If you want me to do this, you must have your reasons."

Lu Yuan was suddenly hit by Gu Jiuyi, and he felt his heart fluttering...

"Old Chen said that if you don't take off the ring, it will easily cause a huge negative impact. For example, classmates will think we are in a relationship, students will think that the school rules have been changed, and the dean will not care about students' relationships, etc..."

Although Gu Jiuyi did not ask Lu Yuan to give an explanation, Lu Yuan still said it.

He knew that although Gu Jiuyi didn't say it on the surface, Lu Yuan could still feel the scars in her heart.

"As you know, the school ethos at No. 1 Middle School is very strict. Although you have a certain degree of privilege, if you're too high-profile, it'll be hard for the teachers. Old Chen has a hard time too. He's the homeroom teacher, and sometimes he has to play the bad guy, but no one else is the good guy, so it's very hard for him too."

Gu Jiuyi remained silent, but loosened her grip on Lu Yuan's hand slightly so that neither of them felt any pain.

"Jiuyi..."

"Lu Yuan." Gu Jiuyi raised her eyes and looked at Lu Yuan, "How are you going to compensate me?"

Compensation?

Lu Yuan thought about it.

I bought two gifts that day, one was a bracelet and the other was a necklace.

He definitely couldn't give the bracelet as a gift. He had given it to Su Xiyan in the past, so it wouldn't be appropriate to give another bracelet to Gu Jiuyi.

He originally wanted to give her a necklace, but Shen Yuzhu swapped it with him, and the necklace is still in his schoolbag.

If you want to give it a gift, now is the right time.

At this time, Gu Jiuyi also placed her left hand on the back of his hand, as if to signal him that he could take action.

Lu Yuan looked at her left hand, at the area where her left ring finger was...

He shook his head and refused to think about it.

Instead, he took off the ring, took out the necklace from his schoolbag, and placed it in Gu Jiuyi's palm.

Lu Yuan said: "To compensate you."

The silver-haired girl looked at the silver necklace and laughed for no reason.

She turned around and lifted her hair, revealing her flawless white neck in front of him.

"Put it on for me."

"now?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel a little flustered. He looked around. Fortunately, everyone was reading and not many people seemed to be looking over here.

They were originally sitting in the corner of the classroom. The only people sitting behind them were Xiao Yida and Tao Ye, so it was not a big problem.

Lu Yuan put the necklace around Gu Jiuyi's neck and gently fastened it behind her.

It is a very thin necklace. If you don’t look closely, you really can’t tell it’s there. The pendant can also be hidden inside clothes.

Gu Jiuyi asked: "Does it look good?"

Lu Yuan smiled and replied:

"Of course you look good. You always look good."

Tao Ye and Xiao Yida behind him were silently eating dog food.

Tao Ye: "Yida, I want to fall in love."

Xiao Yida: "Old Tao, haven't you been in love for a long time? You even sent your goddess a message saying 'eat more apples'."

Tao Ye: "You bastard, stop bringing up things that are not related to the topic."

Xiao Yida scratched his head in pain and said, "Alas, you said that we both have sons, but this relationship has not been successful. What a pity!"

"You..." Tao Ye glanced at Xiao Yida warily, then distanced himself from him under his gaze: "Let me make it clear first, if you want to take revenge on Lu Ge, go report him to the Dean of Studies, and I'll be the first to plead for Lu Ge."

"Damn it, am I the kind of person who tells tales?" Xiao Yida was furious and waved his fist. "Whoever tells tales is a scoundrel!"

Tao Ye glanced at Xiao Yida doubtfully, "Hey, Sun Zha."

"You!"

Xiao Yida couldn't help it at that time and wanted to go up and fight with Tao Ye. Tao Ye also had the same idea and was sharpening his fists, ready to strike hard.

however.

"Tao Ye! Xiao Yida!"

Old Chen's voice suddenly sounded behind them.

32. Indirect Kiss

Xiao Yida and Tao Ye's bodies suddenly stiffened, not daring to move at all.

Everyone in the class is familiar with this voice.

When Lao Chen calls your name in this tone, it basically means you've been sentenced to death.

"What are you two playing behind my back? Real-life King of Fighters?"

Old Chen looked at the two men's outstretched fists with great interest and said with a smile on his face.

There was a hint of anger in the smile.

"That... old ch... Mr. Chen! So you also play King of Fighters?" Xiao Yida smiled awkwardly, and Tao Ye added: "If we say yes, Mr. Chen, can you let us go?"

Old Chen chuckled.

"Okay, copy the texts from Units 1 to 4 five times and put them on my desk."

“Hiss!!! No!!!”

Tao Ye and Xiao Yida screamed and wailed, but Old Chen ignored them and continued to supervise the morning reading.

Lu Yuan, who was sitting in the front row, said to the silver-haired girl next to him:

"See? Old Chen is so scary when you're not around."

The silver-haired girl shook her head fearlessly and said:

"I protect you."

“…” Lu Yuan was choked for a moment. He thought that this was not what he meant, but he couldn’t explain it to Gu Jiuyi.

Or maybe it's useless to explain. Even if I explain, Gu Jiuyi will probably still do as she pleases.

Anyway, Old Chen can't control her.

"By the way, I asked Xiao Yida and Tao Ye to buy us milk tea. It's under the table." Gu Jiuyi pointed between their chairs. "But the milk tea shop was closed this morning, so they had to go to the convenience store and buy two bottles of Assam."

"Very good." Lu Yuan nodded and glanced at both bottles. They were full. "Let's drink later. We're going to hand out the test papers for dictation."

"it is good."

Reading English words dictation in the morning has become a routine. For the subject of English, Lu Yuan’s evaluation is very important.

Not counting the dialect of his hometown, English is his second language. Learning a language is naturally a long-term process.

Unless it's someone like Gu Jiuyi.
