The monthly exam at No. 1 Middle School lasts for one and a half days.
On the first day, they have Chinese and math in the morning and biochemistry in the afternoon. On the second day, they have English and physics in the morning and then go straight to class in the afternoon.
On Monday, Yu Chengsong got up at 6:30 as usual but ended up going out at 6:40.
The shredded potatoes his mother fried this morning were so salty that he almost went to the ICU.
When he arrived at the school gate, Yu Chengsong turned a corner and rode into the snack street opposite the school.
There is a bun shop inside, which is delicious and inexpensive.
There were quite a few people on the street early in the morning, some going to work, some going to school, some opening shops, you say one thing, and I say another, it sounded quite bustling.
Yu Chengsong saw the familiar figure standing in front of the steamed bun shop from fifty meters away. At this moment, in this situation, he really wanted to write a short essay—”On why I can recognize my deskmate’s back at a glance no matter when and where?”
“How about I treat you to this?” He rode over and patted Yin Gu on the shoulder from behind.
“En?” Yin Gu’s arm paused noticeably. Probably because he heard the voice and realized it was someone he knew, so he didn’t do anything.
“En what?” Yu Chengsong looked up and shouted to the old man, “Uncle, three beef and one celery, and a cup of soy milk with more sugar.”
“Is this the most delicious?” Yin Gu looked at him with a smile on his lips and said, “Good morning.”
“It’s generally good.” Yu Chengsong took the steamed buns and soy milk, scanned the code to pay, and said, “I’m starving.”
“Why not eat at home?” Yin Gu used a straw to poke open the lid of the soy milk.
“It’s poisoned at home.” Yu Chengsong also poked it open and tasted it. It didn’t taste sweet at all. The old man became more and more stingy.
“Which examination room are you taking?” Yu Chengsong asked.
“Examination Room 1, Class 1, Grade 2.” Yin Gu said.
“Then it’s on the way.” Yu Chengsong stepped on the pedal and said, “Get on, I’ll give you a ride.”
“Let’s not.” Yin Gu laughed. “You’re starving to death. If I go up there and add another exhausted to death, you will be too miserable.”
“That makes sense.” Yu Chengsong clapped his hands, then stepped lightly on the pedal, and the bike moved forward at a pace that matched Yin Gu’s. “You rented the house here?”
“Yes, in the residential area at the back.” Yin Gu pointed to a building opposite the school.
“Changsheng Community?” Yu Chengsong didn’t hold the handlebars. He ate a steamed bun in one hand and soy milk in the other while pedalling forward. “Public security there is fine.”
“There is even security there?” Yin Gu pretended to be surprised and couldn’t help laughing. “I haven’t even seen a security guard.”
No, I haven’t even seen the door.
“Good boy, I’ll take you to the vocational high school to have a look when I have time.” Yu Chengsong bit the straw and patted his lower back with his other hand. “A bunch of idiots keep knives on their backs every day, and they will take them out and chop you if they don’t like you.”
Yin Gu looked at him and said nothing.
“It’s a little exaggerated.” Yu Chengsong raised his eyebrows. “But it is true that they bring the stuff with them, maybe that’s something they were taught in their school.”
“Extracurricular practice?” Yin Gu said.
“Probably.” Yu Chengsong glanced at him. “What I mean is that if you want to experience the simple folk customs, don’t go there. Of course, if you want to go there to do something else, you can still thank me for telling you about such a treasured place.”
Yin Gu smiled and remembered this place.
On the morning of the exam, many people would bring their meals to class and eat while reviewing. It is better to sharpen your sword before the battle. Yu Chengsong could smell the aroma of various foods outside the door before he entered the class. The complex aroma mixed together made him really don’t want to go in.
He glanced at Yin Gu, his face beneath his glasses was calm, he was really patient.
“Your seat is at the front.” Yu Chengsong turned in from the back door.
“What about you?” Yin Gu looked at him.
Yu Chengsong pointed to the last seat by the window.
Although Lao Li put Yin Gu in the first examination room because he was afraid that other students would affect his answering, but he could only put him in the last place.
During the exam, they sit in reverse order according to their grades, so it is guaranteed that the person in front of you will not perform as well as you. That is, Yu Chengsong, who is ranked first in the grade, has to sit in the last seat by the window, and Yin Gu has to sit in the first seat by the door.
Yu Chengsong had bad luck today. The fat boy at the table in front of him was munching on a leek pie. The smell blew to Yu Chengsong through the wind, and his face was almost turned into the color of leeks.
With more than ten minutes left before the exam, Yu Chengsong took out his mobile phone and posted a message on WeChat Moments.
-May there be no leek pancakes in heaven.
Within a minute, a red dot appeared, and he clicked on it.
Yin Gu: Do you need help?
Yu Chengsong looked at the row in front of him. Yin Gu was leaning on his chair, looking at the two girls in front of him with a smile, his left hand in his pocket, probably holding a cell phone.
The market is quite good ah.1He referred to YG being popular.
The girl was holding a book and asking questions, and Yin Gu was writing something quickly on the paper. When the girl wanted to ask more questions, he said something, then took out his cell phone and took a look, and continued after a while.
Yu Chengsong turned on his cell phone.
Student Yin: Deskmate, the back of my head feels a little hot.
Yu Chengsong replied, leaning on his arms to block the smell of leeks.
Is a good person: You should be thankful that my eyes can’t spit fire; otherwise, you would have at least two holes in your body now.
Is a good person: good boy, I buy fifty cents worth of help.
Not sure what Yin Gu said, but the two girls walked away with disappointment on their faces. Yin Gu stood up and walked straight to the back.
Yu Chengsong lay on the table and looked at him sideways. Yin Gu did not walk towards him but just went to the trash can in the back row to throw away some garbage. However, the moment when the straight-line distance between the two was the shortest, the calm and quiet pheromones suddenly surrounded him, and the feeling of having his sense of smell blocked appeared again.
In the last row of the classroom, light gray pheromones that only top alphas could see were floating densely but powerfully from the glands on the back of one alpha’s neck, wrapping around the entire body of another alpha, tightly wrapping it up. The orange-red pheromones on the other alpha’s body were struggling to overflow, and part of them were entangled with the gray, ready to make a move.
It was not like the brief relaxation he had at the hotpot restaurant on Saturday. This time, the pheromones were many times more intense.
Alpha pheromones are naturally repulsive, and the higher the level, the more severe it is. Yu Chengsong can’t even smell the slightest hint of leeks now.
It wasn’t just because his sense of smell was blocked, the bigger reason was that he used all his strength to restrain his urge to release pheromones to counterattack Yin Gu. It didn’t matter if they accidentally started a battle, but everyone in the entire examination room will have to fall flat to the ground.
Yin Gu’s pheromones lasted less than ten seconds before disappearing. Yu Chengsong could not tell from his back that he had any impulses. He remained calm, as if he had done nothing.
Really awesome.
Yu Chengsong closed his eyes, and in just a few seconds, his adrenaline surged as if he had run 5,000 meters. His fingertips were trembling with stimulation, and every cell in his body was shouting, “Pin him down! Pin him down!”
He hadn’t encountered such a strong fellow in eighteen years, and his physical reaction was beyond imagination.
After a while, he laughed.
It was surprisingly much more comfortable.
The first section was the Chinese language exam. After getting the test paper, Yu Chengsong subtly raised his outer leg and thought, Why didn’t he use his own pheromones just now? Why did he have to do this? It even stood up… Tsk, how careless.
The questions in this monthly exam were much harder than average, so the results would definitely be disastrous. However, it had no effect on Yu Chengsong. His mind was now full of thoughts about what to eat for lunch to reduce his heat. With more than half an hour left, he could no longer sit still and threw down his pen and handed in the paper.
He smoked a cigarette outside the door, and a few more people came out one after another, but he didn’t see Yin Gu.
A good kid probably has to sit there until the last second.
The good kid in the room was looking at his pants while glancing at the teacher, who was standing in front of him while admiring his test paper. When their eyes met, he showed a decent smile.
The teacher nodded at him with satisfaction.
Yin Gu lowered his head and continued spinning the pen.
It was the biggest crisis he had ever had since kindergarten. He wanted to hand in the paper but he couldn’t stand up.
Yu Chengsong didn’t say a word to Yin Gu until the second math exam was over. He glanced at the row in front of him as he followed the crowd out.
Yin Gu packed his things slowly and leisurely, with no intention of snatching the cafeteria space.
Yu Chengsong walked out and heard a message from Zhou Zheyu on his mobile phone.
Zheyu: The third floor of the cafeteria?
Is a good person: First Floor.
Zheyu: Didn’t we agree to eat spicy hotpot?
Is a good person: changed, eat cold noodles.
Zheyu: Okay.
When there were only a few people left in the class, Yin Gu took out a bag of bread from his schoolbag. Instead of going to the cafeteria, he turned straight up the stairs and went up to the sixth floor.
Last time he heard Qian Xiaoyu say it was quiet here and not many people were around.
He walked to the corner of the sixth floor, leaned against the wall, and lit a cigarette.
“Ai, f*ck, there’s no one here, right?”
“There’s no one here, say it quickly, what did you hear?”
“So mysterious, if you have anything to say, spit it out.”
Yin Gu raised his eyebrows, not wanting to hear the secret, but he was stuck here, and going out now might scare the children.
“You know sh*t! I was so scared by the thing I heard this morning that I didn’t even do well in my Chinese exam!”
“It’s okay if you don’t do well in the exam, who is it?”
“Can you hurry up—”
“Brother Song! Yu Chengsong! The Yu Chengsong from Class 26!”
Yin Gu paused while smoking.
“The f*ck?”
“Jia Feisong wants revenge. Tonight he has found people outside the school and would rather both sides suffer losses than not send Brother Song to the police station! Isn’t that exciting?”
“Just to… send him to the police station? With such a big scene, just…”
“This brain of yours. With those grades of Yu Chengsong’s and that level of alpha, if he has a criminal record, he won’t be able to get into a good university. The “out of control” in his “bad record” will be his biggest mistake, and it will be difficult for him to find a job after graduation. This is called killing people and destroying their hearts.”
“This serious? Then Yu Chengsong is in trouble this time. But didn’t he avoid such troubles before? But Jia Feisong’s family owns a company, they are rich and powerful…”
“Ai, I heard, I heard ah, Brother Song was doing it for an oga…”
“F*ck! Raging for a beautiful woman? Which class?”
“It is said that it was the most beautiful in Jia Feisong’s class and a member of the study committee. “
“Wa, f*ck…”
The few people talked further and further away, and finally a teacher came and shouted, and they all ran away.
Yin Gu glanced at the bread in his hand, sighed, put out his cigarette, and turned to go downstairs.
When he entered the classroom, Yu Chengsong was leaning back in his seat, talking on his phone, with the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.
“I told you to eat cold noodles with me, but you refused and insisted on eating spicy hotpot.” Yu Chengsong laughed inhumanely. “Zheyu, I calculated that you will have to poop all afternoon.”
“F*ck, you are so inhuman ah! My mom will beat me to death if I don’t take the exam this afternoon.”
Yu Chengsong was about to speak when a pair of long legs with their school uniform pants stretched out walked to the side of his peripheral vision, and then a piece of Wangzai milk candy was placed on the table.
“En?” Yu Chengsong looked up.
Yin Gu looked at him as usual and pointed outside the door.
“What?” Yu Chengsong looked along his hand and saw nothing except that it was really thin and beautiful. “Fighting?”
“Yeah, are you coming?” Yin Gu laughed. “Do we need to find a quiet place?”
“Your aura right now.” Yu Chengsong looked at him, “Doesn’t look like a good kid at all. Be careful.”
“Not like a good kid, but like you?” Yin Gu walked out.
“Don’t be like me. I’m a good person.” Yu Chengsong stood up and followed him, picking up his phone to send Zhou Zheyu a final message of comfort: “Wish you a good meal.”
There was a short voice message from the other end.
“Vomit—”
Yu Chengsong randomly found an empty classroom, went in, and locked the door. When he turned around to look at Yin Gu, he felt that the two of them did not seem to be having a serious conversation but more like they were having an affair or an illicit relationship between two alphas.
“What’s the matter? Say it.” Yu Chengsong sat down at the table and tossed the candy in his hand.
Yin Gu simply repeated what he had just heard.
“…That’s it.”
“That’s it ah.” Yu Chengsong stretched lazily, thinking it was a big deal. “The people who want to block my way every day can line up from No. 1 Middle School to Vocational High School. It’s okay.”
“I am just delivering a message out of friendship.” Yin Gu said, “You decide how to handle it by yourself.”
“Thank you.” Yu Chengsong said.
“Do you want to kneel down? It’s good here, there’s no one around.” Yin Gu looked at the ground seriously.
“You have such a cheap mouth ah. Why do you talk like that even when we’re not in class?” Yu Chengsong looked at him.
“You’re welcome.” Yin Gu pushed the door open and turned back to give him a warm smile. “If kneeling is too difficult, then I wish you peace.”
Yu Chengsong: “……”
