You are my wife, don't doubt it!

"what……"

The classmates around him all looked at him strangely.

"Yu Luying, what's wrong with you recently? Why do you always make strange noises in class?" the English teacher said dissatisfiedly.

"Teacher Wang, I'm sorry," Yu Luying stood up and said, "I have a stomachache. I need to go to the bathroom."

One, two, three...the small clips kept getting caught in her hair.

Yu Luying took out her cell phone in the corridor.

The phone rang a few times and Xiao Yao answered it. Noisy background noise and the song "Lydia" by F.I.R came from the receiver.

"What are you doing?" Yu Luying asked, "Didn't we agree that since we are symbiotic, we should inform each other before doing anything weird?"

"Sorry, sorry, I was at the barber shop. I forgot to tell you." Xiao Yao said apologetically.

"Where did you get the money to do your hair?" Yu Luying asked curiously, "Do you want to be interviewed by the director again?"

"Ah, this..." Xiao Yao hesitated.

"You are with 'her' again, right?" Yu Luying thought of the only explanation.

"No, really." Xiao Yao didn't ask who "she" was and denied it flatly.

Yu Luying sighed: "Xiao Yao, didn't we talk it out the day before yesterday? There's no need to hide it from me."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds. "Her classmate has a birthday today, and she asked me to go karaoke with her. She gave me an address, and when I went there, I found out it wasn't a KTV, but a high-end beauty salon. Then a teacher named Tony said she had booked it for me, and she wanted to design a set of clothes specifically for me..."

“……” Yu Luying didn’t know what to say for a moment.

"If I knew it in advance, I would definitely tell you." Xiao Yao said.

"The new clothes you wore yesterday were also bought by her?" Yu Luying suddenly thought of something.

"……Yes."

"Xiao Yao," Yu Luying hesitated several times before finally speaking: "There are some things I shouldn't say, but I still advise you to protect yourself and not be too committed."

"What do you mean?"

"You can't beat her." Yu Luying regretted the moment she said this.

"Ah?" Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Yu Luying, are you concerned about me?"

"Stop being so pretty."

"You're jealous," the boy declared triumphantly.

"Get out of here." Yu Luying hung up the phone.

Serves you right! Yu Luying cursed herself in her heart: I wasted my time thinking about him and gossiping about him, bringing shame upon myself!

However, the unreasonable feeling of resentment in my heart has not diminished in the slightest.

Being willing to spend money doesn't mean anything, but taking him to meet your friends...

Is this young lady serious?

Yu Luying walked back and forth in the corridor for a few times and felt a burst of heat coming from above her head.

Is this the start of hair steaming?

"Oh, it's so annoying." Yu Luying raised her forearms and pressed them tightly above her ears.

--split line--

Teacher Tony finished waxing Xiao Yao's hair and pushed him in front of a mirror: "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

"Hmm..." Xiao Yao touched his 3:7 middle-parted bangs and slightly curled hair, squinted his eyes, and nodded coolly at himself in the mirror: "Okay."

Suddenly I thought, I am actually pretty good looking, a bit like Xiao Ma Ge.

How come I never noticed it before?

"How much?" Xiao Yao stood up, walked to the counter, and deliberately put his hands into his pockets.

"You don't have to pay in advance for the VIP card." The manager replied with a smile.

Of course, this is an expected answer.

When he reached the door of the store, Xiao Yao waved to the clerk in a cool manner, leaving only a solid back.

I'm not used to not wearing glasses, at least I can't bump into a telephone pole. Xiao Yao found the nearby "Xiao Nan Guo" restaurant based on the information sent on his mobile phone.

When I walked into the private room, a young man had already arrived.

Although he was called a teenager, Xiao Yao almost thought he was a cute girl at first sight.

Because this little boy is so... beautiful.

Yes, this is a look that cannot be described as “handsome”, but only as “pretty” or “cute”.

The child was not tall and looked like a junior high school student. He was wearing a pure white court-style high-collar shirt and a big red rose on his chest.

The collar was buttoned only to the chest, revealing the graceful curve of the collarbone and the fair skin. The black trousers were straight and the leather shoes were shiny.

"Hello," the young man put down his phone when he saw Xiao Yao and greeted him enthusiastically: "Are you here to attend Zhou Xiaoying's birthday party?"

Zhou Xiaoying? Shen Jie seemed to have mentioned this name.

"Yes."

"Hello, my name is Zhang Zhengkai. It's our first meeting. Please take care of me." The handsome boy stood up and only reached Xiao Yao's chest.

"Hello, I'm Xiao Yao." Xiao Yao shook the hand he extended and gave him a bright smile in return.

Chapter 34 Comrade Lover (Thanks to Silver Alliance Leader for "Checking in at the beginning of school")

2023-07-31

To thank the Silver Alliance Leader, I am updating two chapters in one today, which is considered an extra chapter.

People arrived one after another and sat at two large tables.

Judging from their appearance, most of them should be high school students, with some junior high school students and a few college students.

Regardless of gender, everyone has an extraordinary "accent".

Finally, Shen Jie's belated arrival announced the official start of the birthday party.

"Sorry, sorry, I'm late."

Shen Jie was wearing a light-colored long dress today, low-heeled sandals on her bare feet, a necklace around her neck, a small bag, and she seemed to have put on some light makeup.

As she put her bag down and sat down, she looked for the position of Xiao Yao and Zhang Zhengkai - when she saw the two of them sitting together, chatting and laughing, looking very close, she couldn't help but be stunned.

Xiao Yao and Zhang Zhengkai looked up at the same time, greeted Shen Jie casually, and started chatting among themselves again.

What the hell are these two people...

Fortunately, she was quite satisfied with Xiao Yao's look today.

With a new hairstyle, new clothes and taking off his glasses, he actually looks a little bit handsome at first glance?

"I've seen The Chevalier de Armand," Zhang Zhengkai said, "Both are works by Alexandre Dumas, but I think it's better than The Three Musketeers."

"My favorite is Sienkiewicz's The Knights of the Cross."

"Praise Jesus Christ!" Zhang Zhengkai smiled and raised his right hand.

"Forever and ever!" Xiao Yao immediately took over the "incision", and then the two of them high-fived.

Could it be that these two people had drawn up some kind of tyrannical treaty to divide me up? Shen Jie couldn't hear the specific content of their conversation, but just shook her head to dispel this absurd idea.

A fat man with extraordinary demeanor stood up - he was the current boyfriend of the birthday girl Zhou Xiaoying, and announced the official start of the luncheon.

Cold dishes, hot dishes, soups and desserts, everything is going on in an orderly manner.

Xiao Nan Guo specializes in local cuisine. I don’t know why this local cuisine has become popular again recently. Xiao Nan Guo has become even more famous and has a very good reputation in the Shanghai catering industry. It seems that it has opened a branch in Dongzhudu.

The dishes are all authentic local dishes, and each one is cooked to perfection: the braised pig's trotters are fat but not greasy, and even Yu Luying, who doesn't normally eat fatty meat, said in a text message that she can accept it; the crystal shrimps are chewy and tender, and taste fresh and look good; the crispy pigeon is crispy and nutritious...

The only drawback is that each dish is only enough for one chopstick per person at most. Before coming, Shen Jie and I had repeatedly reminded us to pay attention to our table manners, so when Xiao Yao saw the popular dishes coming up, he basically acted like he wasn't interested.

During the dinner, everyone presented birthday gifts to the birthday girl Zhou Xiaoying. Shen Jie's gift was a rose wax tablet from Santa Maria Novella, which obviously pleased Zhou Xiaoying very much.

Zhang Zhengkai's gift made Zhou Xiaoying's smile awkward but polite.

It was a knight's shield brooch, of quite exquisite shape, and judging by its quality, it might even be an authentic item preserved from old times - Xiao Yao was worried that he might have wasted his precious treasure.

He felt a little guilty and secretly blamed Shen Jie for not reminding him to prepare a gift - but even if she reminded him, he wouldn't have the money to buy it, right?

"Where were we just now?" Zhang Zhengkai sat down again, interrupting Xiao Yao's struggle.

"The Fall of the Byzantine Empire?" Xiao Yao thought for a moment and said, "And modern poetry?"

"I haven't read much modern poetry." Zhang Zhengkai touched his chin.

"I can show you the special research on The Death of a Poet that I did in my elective course group last semester."

"You must, you must show it to me." Zhang Zhengkai patted Xiao Yao's arm: "And the 99 edition of The Emperor of Science Fiction that you just mentioned, I have been looking for it for a long time..."

"I'll lend it to you."

"By the way, you can come with me to participate in the next essay competition. I will take care of your preliminary spot. My dad has a good relationship with the director of education." Zhang Zhengkai patted his chest.

"Okay, that's great."

During the dinner, Xiao Yao did not understand most of the topics, but fortunately no one asked for his opinion. He pretended to listen with interest, and laughed when others laughed, thinking that he had never made a fool of himself.

Fortunately, Zhang Zhengkai was there to chat with him.

"You mean, your family has a collection of real armor?" Xiao Yao's eyes lit up.

"A full body armor from Milan during the Renaissance," Zhang Zhengkai said, "Next time you come to my house, I'll lend it to you?"

"Is it really possible?" Xiao Yao was really envious: "I can only enjoy it in games. Real things are very expensive, right?"

"It's not expensive," Zhang Zhengkai said. "For example, chain mail is usually more than 3,000 yuan, and a set of armor is usually 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. A helmet and a shield can be made for a few hundred yuan. As for swords, there are only two companies in China, Hanwei and Longquan. I think Hanwei is more professional..."

"That's not that expensive indeed," Xiao Yao said with a wry smile, "Is your sword sharpened?"

"A few of them were secretly sharpened by someone," Zhang Zhengkai lowered his voice. "But sharpening is not good. What do you want to do with it? It's too big and conspicuous to be practical. If you don't want to do anything with it, you're breaking the law if it's on you."

Then, Zhang Zhengkai began to brag to Xiao Yao about the horse named "Liehuo" that his family raised at the farm.

"Have you all finished your desserts?" The fat man who looked like an otaku stood up, put his arm around Zhou Xiaoying, held a huge cake in the other hand, and invited everyone to go to the "Qiangui" KTV to continue the second half.

Shen Jie looked at Xiao Yao and Zhang Zhengkai again and felt that the two of them were eager to become sworn brothers on the spot. She couldn't help feeling a little apologetic.

I don't want to destroy the friendship between men, I really don't. I am also a victim.

The two boys stood up and walked towards him together.

This guy Zhang Zhengkai not only came uninvited, but also stretched out his arm towards me as if it was a matter of course, indicating that I should hold his arm.

As usual, he was not only shameless but also considered himself to be a gentleman and polite.

Sorry, men's friendship.

Shen Jie smiled and held Xiao Yao's arm, and the latter's body trembled.

"Let me introduce you," Shen Jie looked around at her friends and said, "This is Xiao Yao."

Friends exclaimed and talked a lot. Some congratulated him, some complimented Xiao Yao on his "good accent", some gossiped, and some were in disbelief.

"St. Francis Xavier High School, what a great school!" Zhou Xiaoying's boyfriend gave a thumbs up: "It's a key school in the district."

"What a good student, a top student." said a thin boy who spoke in a feminine tone.

"Where, where."

Xiao Yao held Shen Jie's arm and chatted with her friends, but saw Zhang Zhengkai walking to the edge of the crowd with his arms folded.

The boy pursed his lips but didn't really cry.

what happened to him?

Just when Xiao Yao was about to ask Zhang Zhengkai what was going on, he was dragged away by Shen Jie.

"What's wrong with Zhang Zhengkai? Why does he suddenly act weird?" On the way to Qiangui KTV, Xiao Yao whispered to Shen Jie beside him.

"I also want to ask you what's wrong with you," Shen Jie bit his ear, "Why are you so close to the district chief's son?"

Xiao Yao looked back at the unhappy Zhang Zhengkai: "The district chief's son? I just feel like I can get along with him very well..."
