They went out at 6:30, and when they arrived at the school, it was not yet seven o’clock, but there were already a lot of students in Qin Cheng’s line of sight.
He was a little distracted; so this is what school looks like at seven o’clock, with people coming and going.
Qin Cheng responded to the people who greeted him while thankful that no one asked him, ‘Qin-ge, how come you didn’t ride in?’.
“Holy shit! Student Qin Cheng, you are very virtuous today!” Tan Qi rode his bike and shouted at him from a distance, “Pushing the bike into the school gate! Even the heaven and the earth are moved! Hey!”
Hey, your uncle!
The corner of Qin Cheng’s mouth twitched uncontrollably. He ignored Tan Qi, raised his head, and looked at Jian Heng first.
Jian Heng was also looking back at him. Qin Cheng read the emotion in Jian Heng’s eyes from this 0.01 second of eye contact, and then quickly turned his head.
Qin-ge didn’t know, Qin-ge couldn’t see, Qin-ge wasn’t embarrassed.
Tan Qi rode up next to them and got off the bike, his eyes circling around the two of them. Then the dog came over stealthily and asked in a low voice that was useless, “Holy shit, did you two come to school together?”
Qin Cheng resisted the urge to kick him away, glanced at him, and said grumpily, “What? Did I delay your business?”
“No,” Tan Qi was still whispering, his eyes glancing warily at Jian Heng, who walked ahead, “I heard from Qian Yuhui’s girlfriend’s best friend from the class next door that——”
“Stop talking.” Qin Cheng interrupted him.
“No, you hear me out.” Tan Qi moved closer to Qin Cheng’s side again. If it wasn’t for the fact that there was a bike separating the two of them, the two of them would have been pressed against each other.
Qin Cheng couldn’t help but glance at Jian Heng in front of him. How come there weren’t so many problems when he was close to Tan Qi?
“Speak.” Qin Cheng said.
Tan Qi poked his waist and stared at Jian Heng with a serious expression: “You were reported by him the day before yesterday? This little guy looks pretty handsome when you look at it up close…”
“Are you here to blow rainbow farts1彩虹屁 (cǎi hóng pì): (neologism, slang) irrationally high praise of one’s idol; glowing terms; “彩虹” means “rainbow,” and “屁” means “flatulence.” Coined by Chinese netizens, this term describes the scenario where fans can see nothing but good in their idols. First catching on in 2017, this term jokingly points to the fact that in the eyes of a die-hard fan, even the bad-smelling flatulence from their idol can be compared to something as beautiful as a rainbow. In a word, this term is roughly equivalent to the English slang of “kissing one’s ass,” only in this case, the person who flatters another may have said their flatteries sincerely. with me?” Qin Cheng pushed him with his arm.
“No,” Tan Qi retorted, “Why did you two faint at the same time yesterday? Damn, when you fainted, Lao Xu immediately detained us in the office, fearing that we would skip class to rescue you. I wanted to escape but couldn’t…”
“I’ll give you a microphone, can you sing it out?” Qin Cheng swatted his hand away, then couldn’t help but glance at Jian Heng again. Tan Qi had already taken action, but he didn’t seem to be affected. Is Jian Heng poisonous2有毒 (yǒu dú): lit. toxic; poisonous. An Internet term that comes from the game League of Legends. The word has many meanings. It describes things that bring some kind of spiritual pollution, making people addicted as if they were poisoned. In addition, the word is also used to complain about others or as a self-deprecating comment on bad luck. Anything that does not conform to common sense can be called poisonous. hose that are particularly funny, nonsensical, and destroy one’s worldview are called poisonous.?
“I’m talking to you, why do you keep looking at him?” Tan Qi looked at him discontentedly.
“Because you’re talking about him, and your volume is loud enough for him to hear,” Qin Cheng was convinced.
Jian Heng must have heard it, but he was too lazy to pay attention to Tan Qi.
Judging from Tan Qi’s expression, he must have been shocked for a few seconds, and then he seemed to realize something and regained his righteousness. He said in a lower voice: “What else can he do to beat me up? Qin-ge will protect me.”
Qin Cheng had never felt that this road was so long: “Can’t you fart all at once?”
“Oh,” Tan Qi said, “I just wanted to check on you. I sent you eight hundred messages yesterday, and you didn’t reply. Say pigeon and you just pigeon. Your fans flooded my live streaming room, crying for you… What exactly happened that made you both go to the hospital? Is there something between you and him that I don’t know about?? Damn it, do you have a dog outside??”
“Have your uncle!” Qin Cheng slapped him on the head.
“My uncle is an Alpha and I already have an aunt.” Tan Qi said.
“Scram,” Jian Heng was just two meters ahead, Qin Cheng was infected by Tan Qi and subconsciously lowered his voice, “Don’t ask now, I’ll tell you in class.”
After saying that, he felt that this kind of behavior was really stupid. Stupidity is really contagious.
When they were halfway there, Qin Cheng called Jian Heng: “I have to drop off the bike.”
Jian Heng didn’t say anything. He turned around and followed him to the parking shed.
Tan Qi, who watched the whole process from the side, had a horrified look on his face. He tried to tell him to shut up again in a horrified manner, with an expression that said, ‘My best brother has committed treason behind my back and I just realized it.’.
Qin Cheng couldn’t be bothered.
It wasn’t until the first class that Qin Cheng received a WeChat message from Tan Qi, which was filled with caution between the lines.
Tan Qi’er: Qin-ge, please don’t take it to heart.
Qin Cheng snorted and typed.
Earning Money to Support the Family: Speak human words.
Tan Qi quickly replied.
Tan Qi’er: I’ll never speak ill of that boy again. By the way, when did you two become a couple? I didn’t even know. This speed must be considered love at first sight, right? When will you do it? Have you met the parents?
Earning Money to Support the Family: Roll.
That side subsided.
Qin Cheng put down his mobile phone and looked at Jian Heng with boredom. He didn’t understand what the physics teacher was talking about, but Jian Heng’s pen never stopped. His gaze fixed on the blackboard, and his hands took notes.
Qin Cheng deliberately took a look. The handwriting was arrogant, but it was all on the horizontal line, and the size was the same as if he had obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Qin Cheng would be the first to disbelieve if he said he had never practiced.
Sure enough, no one can pretend to be cool easily. Seize every opportunity in life and enjoy acting cool with your sleepy deskmate… What was the original lyrics of this song?
The mobile phone vibrated again, Qin Cheng lowered his head. Tan Qi was asking persistently.
Tan Qi’er: So why on earth did you two go to the hospital?
After talking nonsense for a while, he finally got to the point.
Qin Cheng told Tan Qi what the doctor said and what happened yesterday, minus the embarrassing part. There was no response from the other side for a long time, probably because he was too shocked to speak.
He was also shocked and hadn’t recovered from yesterday until now.
At the moment, this matter has surpassed earning money to support the family and has become the biggest hurdle in his life. Any subsequent problems that arise would be enough to keep him busy for a year.
For example, Jian Heng was a transfer student. He reasonably guessed that he had a falling out with his family and ran away from home, so he might go back at some point.
What will happen then? Would they meet up once a month? The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl3牛郎织女 (niú láng zhī nǚ): The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are characters found in Chinese mythology and appear eponymously in a romantic Chinese folk tale. The story tells of the romance between Zhinü (織女; the weaver girl, symbolized by the star Vega) and Niulang (牛郎; the cowherd, symbolized by the star Altair). Despite their love for each other, their romance was forbidden, and thus they were banished to opposite sides of the heavenly river (symbolizing the Milky Way). Once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, a flock of magpies would form a bridge to reunite the lovers for a single day. The earliest-known reference to this famous myth dates back to a poem from the Classic of Poetry from over 2600 years ago. version 2.0?
It was fucking scary just thinking about it.
Tan Qi didn’t reply to the message until the end of class, then he came over and sat in front of him.
Qin Cheng went to bed early at Jian Heng’s house yesterday. He was in a rare state of energy. He leaned back on his chair with his arms folded across his chest, squinting his eyes and looking around.
“Qin-ge.” Tan Qi plopped down on his desk and smiled fawningly.
“If you have something to say, say it.” Qin Cheng had a feeling that it was nothing good.
Sure enough, Tan Qi set his sights on Jian Heng. As expected, he didn’t get any response. He turned back resentfully and said, “Do you still remember Chen Jinjia?”
Qin Cheng frowned, recalling for at least five seconds, and shook his head: “I don’t remember, male or female?”
As soon as Tan Qi looked at him, he knew: “You should at least remember the gender. She’s a girl, an Omega, only as tall as your chest, small and cute, with twin ponytails, and she also wanted to pursue you.”
“Do you remember?”
Qin Cheng: “…”
The atmosphere is eerily silent.
After a while, Qin Cheng touched his ear and said, “I really don’t remember. I can’t recall.”
He is 1.85 meters tall. In his age group, Omegas are usually as tall as his chest. They are small and… He doesn’t really care whether they are cute or not.
Tan Qi was anxious: “It was when we went to buy a mouse, passing through the town and the vegetable market…”
“Ah!” Qin Cheng suddenly realized and took out a bottle of cola from the table, “We met her on the day we bought the mouse. Is she an Omega? I thought she was a Beta. ”
He couldn’t smell Omega pheromones at all, so he had to rely on guessing to distinguish between B/O.
To be honest, the only thing he could remember was the black mouse he had saved up so much money to buy, which worked quite well. He couldn’t even remember whether that whatever Jia was skinny or fat, or tall or short.
“What’s the matter?” Qin Cheng took a sip of his cola, “She’s looking for me?”
“Ah,” Tan Qi pointed at Jian Heng, “She’s looking for him.”
Qin Cheng almost spit out a mouthful of cola. He choked for a long time before he could speak: “…Looking for who?”
“Looking for your deskmate.” Tan Qi took the cola and took a sip. He also felt quite incredulous, “And asked me to bring you a message, ‘Qin Cheng, you can spend your whole life with keyboards and mice.’.”
Qin Cheng turned his head and looked at Jian Heng. The expression on his face could not be described in words for a moment.
People are like this. What you don’t want, is something that you don’t want. If something didn’t want you, it became different. Especially when the person is Jian Heng…
The heart truly feels a mix of emotions.
It was unknown whether it was because the knowledge was too wonderful and Jian Heng was too fascinated by it because he was not interested in that cute little Omega with twin ponytails. He didn’t even raise his head. It made his previous choking on that sip just now seem very uncool.
Tan Qi was still nagging on the side: “Really short-sighted! Where do our Qin-ge fall short? Is that playing games? That is making money to support the family! I can’t hug you if I pick up the keyboard. If I hug you, there will be no——”
“You, shut up,” Qin Cheng pointed at him, feeling inexplicably aggrieved and angry, “Deal with your own matters with the right person, don’t come to me to find death.”
Tan Qi stopped talking. After a while, he suddenly whispered: “That requires your consent. If you two are doing it, won’t I be in trouble?”
“Who? What?” Qin Cheng was so surprised that the word ‘who’ was raised by an octave. He reasonably suspected that he had a hearing impairment. Otherwise, how could he hear someone say that he and Jian Heng were ‘doing it’? Two Alphas doing it, is it the end of the world?
“You… two.” Tan Qi’s gaze swept uncertainly between the two of them.
Jian Heng had been writing an examination paper and didn’t even glance at him, staying out of the matter from beginning to end.
“Two my ass.” Qin Cheng kicked him from under the table. Where did this stupid son come up with the idea that the two of them were dating?
Tan Qi was stunned for a moment, not caring about the pain in his legs. He waved his hand in front of Jian Heng with a fierce look: “This student, may I ask if you’re going steady4搞对象 (gǎo duì xiàng): (chiefly Mainland China, intransitive, informal) to be in a romantic relationship; to date; synonym for falling in love [谈恋爱 (tán liàn’ài), (intransitive) to be in a romantic relationship; to go out; to be dating; to be in love]. For a long time, when Chinese people talk about love, they always hesitate and evade the topic. They want to talk about it but are too embarrassed to say it directly, so they mostly use other words to refer to it. However, if this word is mentioned again today, young people will say it is outdated. with my Qin-ge?”
A bolt from the blue.
Qin Cheng felt that his face must have cracked at this moment. This wasn’t a pig teammate5猪队友 (zhū duì yǒu): (figurative, neologism, slang, humorous) teammate or ally that is more of a hindrance than a help; noobish or lousy teammate., this was a believer of the galaxy, who was taking revenge on him for screwing up the galaxy.
Jian Heng looked up at Tan Qi.
Qin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, don’t look at me. The one asking you this is that idiot Tan Qi. I don’t have any improper thoughts about you. We are pure and innocent.
However, the world always seems malicious towards poor straight guys like Qin Cheng. Jian Heng only swept a glance at Tan Qi before tilting his head to look at him. His face showed no expression, his left hand supporting his chin, his right hand twirling a pen. When he looked over sideways, the arch of his brow bone and the short sideburns formed a cold, hard curve: “You don’t recognize her?”
Qin Cheng thought to himself, I really don’t recognize her at all, but what came out of his mouth was: “I’ve met her once.” Why was he so honest?
Jian Heng: “Oh.”
Qin Cheng: “Oh?”
Jian Heng twirled the pen in his hand, his arm resting on the table was casual and relaxed, but still carrying an undeniable sense of strength that could not be ignored. He glanced at Tan Qi, his expression indifferent: “I don’t want to know her.”
Perhaps he was shocked by Jian Heng’s pretentious yet genuinely impressive aura, Tan Qi opened his mouth and didn’t say anything for a long time.
Qin Cheng felt inexplicably pleased, thinking, serve you right, you must be struck by lightning for talking nonsense, you idiot.
However, he still underestimated Tan Qi. After a moment of being dumbfounded, Tan Qi quickly recovered and asked: “So…did you two do it or not?”
I’m doing your uncle’s wife!
The bell signaling the start of class saved Tan Qi’s life. He covered his head and ran to the front, shouting as he ran: “Brother, brother, brother, I was wrong! You are single! But but but but but you didn’t do anything, why are you so anxious?”
“Bang!”
The half bottle of cola flew in a beautiful parabola from the last row, passing over the innocent people and accurately hitting the head of the still moving Tan Qi.
Qin Cheng, the top pitcher of Fifth High School, the creator of world nuclear peace.
His reputation was well-deserved.
