You are my wife, don't doubt it!

"Hello, my name is Tao Tianyi." Tao Tianyi introduced himself to his new deskmate without even raising his head while tidying up.

"Hello, my name is Xu Qingwei." Xu Qingwei's tone was no longer as timid as it was on the podium just now: "Please take care of me."

Xu Qingwei pulled the empty chair slightly away from Tao Tianyi, put down her schoolbag, and sat down gently.

This small action made Tao Tian feel unhappy, and at the same time, he smelled a pleasant smell.

Several boys in the front row turned around and looked over here.

"Okay, okay," Lao Lin tapped the podium with a triangle ruler, "It's time for class."

Tao Tianyi didn't dare turn around and look at his deskmate, but just turned his gaze slightly towards her.

He saw a slender and green left hand unzipping the pencil case.

Tao Tianyi's gaze was fixed on the girl's ring finger.

"Hiss——" the boy took a breath.

There is a very obvious circle of... white marks at the base of Xu Qingwei's ring finger.

Are girls nowadays so careless? They wear random rings on their left hands.

Tao Tianyi thought that he could explain to her the meaning of wearing rings on different fingers later to show off his knowledge.

Chapter 349 What to do with these love letters?

What is the concept of five meters?

Xiao Yao paced in front of the blackboard in the classroom, holding the "ruler" on the podium in his hand and gently flipping it.

After turning over about four times, I sloppily made my way from the leftmost window to the rightmost front door.

In other words, the wide side of the classroom is about five meters, maybe a little longer, but not much more.

As long as you don't play Go Fighting, you should be fine.

But the long side of the classroom is definitely much longer than five meters.

What's more, since Yu Luying and I were in the classroom, it was inevitable that there would be a diagonal distance between us.

Things are going to get worse.

Although the current seat distance between Xiao Yao and Yu Luying would not cause a problem - as a tall girl, Yu Luying did not sit very far to the front - Xiao Yao still took Yu Luying to the teacher's office after the morning reading class.

Yu Luying was reluctant, but couldn't persuade him, so she stood at the door of the teacher's office and waited.

"Teacher Lin." Xiao Yao greeted respectfully.

"Xiao Xiao," Director Lin raised his head and said with a smile, "The test will start tomorrow. Remember our agreement, okay?"

"No problem." Xiao Yao nodded.

"What's wrong? Do you want to ask a question?" Director Lin pursed his lips and said, "Sit down."

"Teacher Lin," Xiao Yao lowered his voice after sitting down and leaned close to Director Lin's ear: "Yu Luying and I... are dating now."

"Ah," Director Lin said loudly, "I'll talk about this question in class later."

Xiao Yao: “?”

"Okay," Director Lin said in a low voice, "Congratulations, are you so anxious for me to give you a gift?"

"Of course not." Xiao Yao shook his head.

"Why do I need you to come here to announce this kind of thing?" Director Lin flipped through his lesson preparation bag and said kindly: "Let's talk about it properly and don't delay her study - oh, and yours too."

"I know." Xiao Yao nodded and said, "Put our seats together, classmate."

"Hiss——" said Director Lin.

Although our school has an open-minded atmosphere.

Although Mr. Lin's educational philosophy is open-minded.

Although we have met a lot in private this summer, we are somewhat familiar with each other.

But you are a little too arrogant.

"Ahem, ahem," Director Lin said with difficulty and embarrassment, "The class seating arrangement is also a comprehensive consideration...ah, I won't waste my words on you. Can't you be more low-key? You're just showing off just because you have a girlfriend! There are already several couples in your class, and I don't think anyone has ever made such a request to your Song...your teacher Yao?"

Perhaps it was because Director Lin's voice was a little louder than before, Xiao Yao could feel several gazes cast at him from all around.

But he remained calm and said sincerely: "Teacher Lin, we are here to learn. You know, Yu Luying is the top student in the grade. We have agreed to apply to the same university in the future. But my grades... still have a lot of room for improvement. Yu Luying is also anxious..."

"Hummmm." Teacher Lin stroked his chin, thinking that this was a somewhat convincing reason: "I'll think about it. After the baseline test, I may arrange a seat adjustment for the whole class."

Xiao Yao understood what this meant, "Don't even think about cheating in the exam again." He happily bowed 90 degrees and said, "Thank you, Teacher Lin!"

With the tightness of Xiao Yao's ligaments, he would never have been able to do this action before, so he was also shocked.

"Okay, let's go back to class. The bell has already rung." Director Lin waved his hand at Xiao Yao. "By the way, I will ask for her opinion later. For things like this, the girls have to give their approval, right?"

"Report." Yu Luying pushed open the office door and said in a clear and loud voice, "Teacher Lin, I asked Xiao Yao to come and discuss this with you."

"Ahhh, okay, okay." Director Lin was shocked.

On September 2004, 9, the placement test for the new second grade of St. Francis Xavier's School started on time.

Since we will be divided into classes and choose courses in the next semester, and this exam was originally added by Director Lin at the last minute, if it were to be held for three consecutive days, it would take up a lot of the original class time. Therefore, only Chinese, math and English were tested and completed in one day.

At noon that day, Xiao Yao, Yu Luying and Shen Jie had a secret meeting on the rooftop of the teaching building.

"This is my secret base, isn't it nice?" Xiao Yao proudly introduced it to Shen Jie: "Although it seems to be always locked on weekdays, I know that as long as I gently pull it like this, the bolt will open."

"It's really a nice place." Shen Jie stood on the edge of the roof, her expression and tone indifferent. She lifted up her thick bangs and pinned them on her forehead with a hairpin, and took off her big glasses, revealing her seductive appearance: "I've been here before."

Seeing Xiao Yao's puzzled look, Shen Jie explained: "In your teacher Yao's hall, the White Knight brought us up here. Have you forgotten?"

"How could I have forgotten this?" Xiao Yao nodded repeatedly: "I haven't forgotten it, I haven't forgotten it."

Xiao Yao walked to Shen Jie's side, put his hand on her shoulder, and looked forward following the girl's gaze.

Naturally, unlike the fantastic scene they saw that time, what came into view was a very ordinary scene. The Pearl of the Orient was still the Pearl of the Orient, it had not turned into a great pyramid, the Yellow River was still the Yellow River, it had not turned into a dry sand flow, the boats on the river surface were crawling slowly like insects, the sparse flow of people on the streets and the traffic on the road were also coming and going like ants, and in the near distance, over the sky above the playground, they could see the cross held high on the top of the Sacred Heart Church - it was said to be held high, but in fact it was only five or six stories high, about the same height as the rooftop where the three of them were.

Yu Luying was about to say something but stopped herself. She estimated the distance in her mind by visual estimation. To be on the safe side, she took a few steps towards Xiao Yao.

"Do you remember?" Shen Jie's hair was blown by the wind and fluttered in front of her face in a disorderly manner: "Teacher Song fell from here," she pointed in the direction of the big clock: "There was a platform extending out, and then he fell from the roof."

"Uncle—Brother Bo shouted angrily, and the guy immediately fell off the platform. Brother Bo is so handsome." Xiao Yao said.

"Later, Teacher Song turned the school into a tank right in front of the three of us - the four of us." Yu Luying interrupted, "Girls, it's time to eat lunch. It will be cold soon."

"Wasn't the lunch box you brought cold to begin with?" Shen Jie asked curiously.

"We went to Teacher Lin's office to get the teacher's microwave." Yu Luying explained.

"...Okay," Shen Jie clapped her hands and said, "Eat, eat, eat. Thank you for your hard work today, silly girl."

The lunch box was packed in a large brown plastic lunch box, and contained meat, vegetables and rice. Yu Luying had prepared it in the church kitchen last night. Considering Xiao Yao's appetite, she made a lot of food, but only brought two metal spoons.

Yu Luying handed the spoon to Shen Jie, met her slightly strange look, and explained: "Now when he and I eat, one of us eats while the other watches, because if we eat together, the texture and taste will be mixed together, and no one can eat well - and if one person eats enough, both of us won't be hungry."

"Oh," Shen Jie replied casually, "If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry."

As he spoke, he took the metal spoon from her hand: "Shall we pray first?"

"In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. Lord, bless us and the food you have given us..."

Xiao Yao thought that this scene was particularly beautiful. The rooftop, the lunch box, and the wind on the rooftop were like a scene from a Japanese animation.

All they have to do is say "いただきます" neatly together, and they are all alive.

But then again, this pre-meal habit of the Japanese is actually a religious ritual, which seems to have originated from the Shinto concept that "all things have spirits."

This expresses respect and gratitude for the life of food ingredients (vegetables, meat, etc.). It roughly means thank you for sacrificing your life to be eaten by me, making it seem as if the other party is doing it voluntarily.

Christians thank God for the food before meals, but the Neonies thank the dedication of the food being eaten. Neon is indeed an abstract country.

"Mmm! Delicious! Delicious!" While enjoying the delicious food, mother cat expressed slightly exaggerated admiration and gratitude for Yu Luying's cooking skills and service as always: "Dog, you eat too - oh, forget it."

Xiao Yao didn't eat, of course. She just held her cheeks with her hands, and watched the two girls devour their food with a smile on her face. The expression on her face was like that of a kind grandmother.

"Xiao Yao, your expression now really looks like your grandma." Shen Jie said.

"Yes, that means he is my biological grandson." Xiao Yao said with a smile.

"The way she looks at me is a bit similar," Shen Jie leaned forward slightly: "Silly girl, do you know? His grandmother always looks at me like this. Last night - no, the night before yesterday, she ran into my room to tuck in my quilt, and I was half asleep and half awake when I saw a dark shadow stretching out two hands towards my neck, which scared me - Mimi? Mimi come here, toot toot toot toot..." Shen Jie clapped her hands gently, seducing a Chinese rural civet cat that appeared out of nowhere.

"Meow~" The civet cat ran over, and Shen Jie dropped a fish fillet on the road.

"Meow~" the civet cat said quickly.

"I noticed that it was your grandma Xiao Yao who drove you to school on a three-wheeled disabled vehicle these past two days?" Yu Luying said.

"Yes, yes," Shen Jie covered her face, "I'm so embarrassed! I told her not to send me off, but she insisted on sending me off. I really had no choice~~"

"Just send it, that's good." Xiao Yao said: "Hey, how did you do in the exam this morning?"

"Don't bring up that," Shen Jie rolled her eyes at him and picked up a piece of pork ribs. "You know I didn't have Chinese classes in high school."

"Tsk tsk, a top student from the International Department." Xiao Yao began to laugh at her with gloating pleasure: "It reminds me of the time when you pronounced "Great Ming State Master" as "Grand Ming State Master"."

Shen Jie calmly put down her chopsticks and said seriously, "I just read it wrong. Have you never read it wrong before? Is there any point in nitpicking on other people's small mistakes?"

"Oh my, are you really angry?" Xiao Yao reached out to touch Shen Jie's head: "Isn't this just teasing you?"

"I'm not angry," Shen Jie continued with a fierce face, "I'm just unhappy."

? Does this make any difference?

Come on, Little Apple, help me coax her, Xiao Yao thought.

I don’t care if you two bastards die, Little Apple replied viciously in her heart.

After the "candlelight talk" in the church in the middle of the night that day - well, actually there was no candlelight, and after Yu Luying left angrily (to say she was angry was a bit of an understatement), Xiao Yaoben felt that if he was optimistic, he would be blocked for a week, but he wouldn't say if he was pessimistic.

Unexpectedly, during the day on September 9st, Little Apple was able to communicate and talk with me normally.

Of course Xiao Yao knew that the matter was not over yet, she just had to "keep her head down when she was under someone's roof".

I offer a service, but don't expect a good attitude.

He can still hug her, but his body is stiff and he won't respond. He can still kiss her, but he clenches his teeth and refuses to let go. He can still hold hands, but Xiao Yao has to align the gaps between their fingers himself, just like he is playing with a doll.

Moreover, he hasn't smiled since then.

You can't touch him in the church, it's a holy place. You can't touch him in the school, it's also a holy place. You can't touch him on the street when there are many people around. At most you can hold hands. Only after dark when you take a walk in a secluded place can you have a little intimacy with the wooden man.

There's nothing that can be done about this, Xiao Yao thought.

He wasn't in a hurry to get her, he just wanted to normalize bilateral relations quickly and put the matter behind him. However, he was unable to do so in just one and a half days.

Yu Luying refused to help Xiao Yao out, but Shen Jie did it herself after a little while: "By the way, what are you two going to do about the military training in October? And there are also physical education classes. I saw that the classes on the playground are divided into male and female classes."

"Military training, military training," Xiao Yao tapped his head in pain, "We'll talk about it when the time comes. There will always be a way out. At worst, we can just pretend to be sick and skip class. As for physical education class..."

"It's so easy to skip military training, why do you think others don't skip it?" Yu Luying retorted unhappily.

"Why don't others skip the exam?" Xiao Yao asked back foolishly and naively.

"Don't pretend to be sick and skip classes together again," Shen Jie reminded him, "It's only been two days since school started, and all the romantic stories about the two of you have already... have already... spread quite widely."

Xiao Yao was shocked: "How widespread is it? Even a newcomer like you heard it?"

"Yes, even a newcomer like me heard it," Shen Jie nodded and said, "Many people in our class are talking about you."

"What are you talking about us?" Yu Luying and Xiao Yao asked in unison.

"What can you say?" Shen Jie said nonchalantly, "The top student in the grade got together with the boy who was about to repeat the grade, and they even cheated in the exam together."

Xiao Yao & Yu Luying: "..."

"Some people also said that you were caught spending the night in a hotel room outside by Teacher Song, who wanted to fire you, but you guys got away with it," Shen Jie continued.

"How did this news get out?" Yu Luying exclaimed.

"How can anyone believe such nonsense as something was done?" Xiao Yao said anxiously.

"There are two versions of the part about 'being killed by you': hiring a killer and forcing suicide," Shen Jie recalled, "and the other parts are pretty consistent."

"Is that all?" Yu Luying asked quickly, "No wonder I felt that the way some girls in my class looked at me was a little weird."

"No, that's not the case," Xiao Yao said, "That must be your illusion."
