It's the students' fault if they are too popular.

"Hey……"

Lu Bingjie sighed, secretly envying Tong Yao, who had found such a good daughter. She didn't agree immediately, but just joked, "Who knows, the teacher may have to rely on you in the end."

Dong Yang nodded.

Back in the classroom, I had the expected question-and-answer session with my classmates.

"What does the teacher want to see you for?"

"Nothing."

After returning to their seats, it was Gu Nian and Bai Lu who started asking questions.

"Does the teacher need anything from you?"

The two were extremely curious.

Dong Yang was helpless and explained: "Looking for me to perform the violin at the art festival."

"Wow, did you agree?" Bai Lu sat towards her, "I haven't heard you play the violin for a long time."

"...It depends on the situation." Dong Yang looked up at the sky.

Bai Lu yelled: "What do you mean? Did you agree?"

Gu Nian poked Dong Yang on the back, gave her some peeled pecans, and called Bai Lu to eat.

Dong Yang smiled unconsciously: "Thank you." He was too embarrassed to take them all, so he only took one and let Bai Lu and Gu Nian share the rest.

Crunchy fruit with a creamy sweetness.

She bent down, took out three bottles of yogurt from the drawer, and distributed one to each person.

My male classmate joked: "Ah, there's none for me?"

Bai Lu took it with a hum: "I want to buy it myself."

The male classmate asked: "Then how do you get whore for free?"

Bai Lu proudly put her arm around his shoulder and said, "My wife gave it to me. How about it?"

Everyone laughed and thought that they had a good relationship.

Gu Nian was somewhat silent.

Does Bai Lu like Xu Dongyang?

Is that the kind she likes?

probably.

She was a little anxious and irritable, and accidentally tore the homework paper with the tip of her pen, which was very irritating to her as someone who took good care of her homework.

Before, she was afraid that Xu Dongyang didn’t like girls, and now she is afraid to compete with Bai Lu.

The main reason... is that I'm afraid I'll be the loser.

What would happen if Bai Lu also knew that she liked Xu Dongyang? Would they no longer be friends?

The ignorant and immature premature love.

She thought that maybe she should think about these things when she grows up, but she didn't know when to grow up.

The autumn wind rustled.

After Gu Nian's reminder, Xu Dongyang changed into her autumn school uniform, which made her feel much warmer. At lunch, she saw Lu Bingjie sitting alone in a corner of the cafeteria, so she went to greet her and asked:

"Have you found anyone to perform?"

Lu Bingjie sighed: "No."

Dong Yang thought about it and said, "Then I'll do it."

"Is it okay?" Lu Bingjie looked up, her tone excited, "It won't affect your studies, will it? Otherwise, your mother will scold me."

"Mom... doesn't mind if I do poorly on the exam." The little girl lowered her head, her cheeks flushed.

She seldom calls her "Mom". Over the years, she has gotten used to calling her "Auntie".

"That's good!" Lu Bingjie patted Dong Yang's back with a smile, "Are you free during lunch break? We can start at noon today. We were planning to have one less violinist, so we've already agreed to gather in the music classroom."

Dong Yang opened his mouth slightly, not expecting it to be so fast. But he still nodded and agreed:

"some."

after lunch.

She did not go back to the dormitory with Bai Lu. After explaining the reason, she rushed to the music classroom to gather.

"Everyone is here," Lu Bingjie was standing in the middle when the door was opened, "Dongyang, you are the only one missing."

The music classroom was empty, with only three chairs. Lu Bingjie was holding a sheet of music, with a boy and a girl in front of her. Dong Yang didn't recognize either of them, but he felt they looked familiar, probably because he had bumped into them by chance in the corridor.

She nodded slightly and greeted the people in the classroom.

"Let me introduce you to each other," Lu Bingjie clapped her hands, "Xu Dongyang, from Class 4."

Then he pointed at the boys, "Shen Ao from Class 10."

Finally, it was a girl, "Chen Yuling from Class 8."

"I've already chosen the songs, you can take a look. The school has all the musical instruments. Dongyang, are you going to use the ones from school or bring your own?"

Dong Yang was stunned for a moment and said, "I asked my mother to send the piano to school."

The program planned by Lu Bingjie is a song.

The girl named Chen Yuling played the electronic piano, the boy was responsible for singing, and Xu Dongyang played the violin accompaniment.

The song was a Spanish song called "despacito", which seemed to be quite popular. She had listened to it several times.

But Xu Dongyang didn't understand a single word, so he subconsciously looked at the boy named Shen Ao:

"Can you sing?"

She realized that Shen Ao had a face that would make girls scream. He had deep facial features, was clean and tall, and looked like a mixed-race. It seemed that she had heard her roommate say in the dormitory that there was a boy in Class 10 who was extremely handsome.

It's him.

"Yes." Shen Ao smiled confidently.

Dongyang looked to the side again. The girl playing the electronic piano next to him was wearing glasses and looked quiet and introverted.

"We have all the musical instruments, why don't we try them first?" said Lu Bingjie.

A few people had no objection and tried to play the song together in the empty classroom.

The quiet afternoon gradually becomes melodious.

The rehearsal lasted for more than an hour, with breaks in between, and the group became familiar with each other. During the break, Shen Ao smiled and said to Xu Dongyang:

"Don't look up the meaning of the lyrics of this song."

Xu Dongyang opened his eyes wide, not understanding what it meant for a moment.

"Go away, don't teach others bad things." Lu Bingjie waved her hands, but facing the little girl's confused look, she didn't know how to speak.

This song is nice to listen to and really popular.

But the lyrics are very explicit, and they just rely on the fact that people can't understand them.

Xu Dongyang probably guessed it, but he didn't say anything, and the temperature on his face rose slightly.

"Okay, let's go back to the classroom. You can still take a nap on the table for a while." Lu Bingjie yawned and waved goodbye.

"Goodbye, teacher." The three of them said in unison.

When I left the music classroom, I heard wake-up music from the dormitory building in the distance.

As soon as Xu Dongyang took the music score and left, Shen Ao caught up with her and started talking to her.

"You play the piano very well."

"Thank you." Dong Yang paused, "You sang very well, too."

"Are you familiar with Teacher Lu? I see you have a pretty good relationship..."

"Quite familiar."

It’s quite relaxing to chat with Shen Ao.

Sometimes there are some jokes mixed in, but they are not inappropriate or offensive, and just make people laugh.

When they reached the stairs, they said goodbye.

"I remember Class 10 is upstairs." Xu Dongyang said.

Shen Ao, who originally wanted to see him off for a while, waved his hand and said, "Okay, see you another day."

As soon as he arrived at the classroom, Xu Dongyang found that there were already quite a few people there.

They all stared at her.

My roommate was the first to lose control and asked:

"Is that the half-blood from Class 10? You two..."

Full of gossip.

The boys around all looked unhappy.

Dong Yang was puzzled: "What the hell?"

"You and Shen Ao! You walked together all the way! We all watched!" The roommate said intoxicatedly, "A talented man and a beautiful woman, what a perfect match."

"..." Dong Yang was speechless, "Don't talk nonsense."

Returning to her seat, she greeted Bai Lu as usual, but today, Bai Lu lay still, like an ostrich or a turtle. Slowly, he even turned his head and looked at her with a bit of resentment.

"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?" Dong Yang waved his hand in front of her eyes.

Bai Lu stood up weakly: "No. You...rehearsed the whole afternoon? With Shen Ao?"

"Yes," Xu Dongyang said, "there is also a girl from Class 8."

Bai Lu frowned, feeling awkward, and lay back down.

Extra: Winter Sun (Seventeen)

The leaves outside the window have turned yellow.

The students on duty carried the large trash can behind the classroom and went to empty the trash while chatting and laughing. The people in the back seat called them and threw the trash in the bucket that was about to overflow, and patted the students on duty on their buttocks. The class representative wrote the teacher's tasks for the class on the blackboard, and the people who fetched water returned with a full load.

Amidst this reassuring bustle, a boy stood by the open window of his class and shouted inside in a bright and sunny voice:

"Winter Sun."

All good things end here.

Bai Lu looked over with gritted teeth, it was Shen Ao again.

——Who are you? You called Dongyang so intimately.

What made her even more angry was that Xu Dongyang actually put down his homework and went out. Everyone was not blind and started to make noises. The two of them said something outside, and then Shen Ao gave Xu Dongyang a stack of papers, and the noise in the classroom became even louder.

When Xu Dongyang came back, the girls asked one after another:

"A love letter?"

"Is Shen Ao chasing you?"

Xu Dongyang shook his head and showed the paper: "Program schedule."

So, everyone dispersed, some feeling disappointed, some feeling relieved, and some feeling secretly happy.

Bai Lu silently watched Xu Dongyang return to his seat. She really wanted to ask, how could he become so close to Shen Ao after only a few days of rehearsal?

But I also feel like I'm being pretentious.

Ignoring the last name and calling someone by their first name is actually quite common in school. In other words, if people have a good relationship, some people don't feel burdened to call someone by their first name, while others feel extremely ashamed.

Dongyang is the kind of person who is not good at saying no.
