Chapter 63
These two innocent young men went to find a mop together.
Trembling with fear, Blue Hair rushed out of the bathroom at lightning speed, afraid of hearing anything troublesome.
He will never come to this “little toilet” again!
No ... he still has to come often. As Xiao Ge had said, with these two so deeply in love, they had to remain clear-headed and help them cover up from time to time.
Qiao Shao was his roommate and a weak, puny, helpless, pathetic but could still eat, poor ghost. Dorm Room Leader Wei felt that he had the responsibility and obligation to cover for him!
After He Shen’s explanation, Qiao Shao felt a lot more relieved. He asked Top Pillar about it during dinner time.
Larry: “President, there will be an assessment exam for the people who want to participate in the league, right?”
Top Pillar: “Just call me Pillar, of course there will be an assessment.”
What the heck was ‘Pillar’! The president’s style was really too strange!
Qiao Shao stopped himself from ridiculing the other and continued typing. “Then I’ll participate in the assessment when the time comes.”
Top Pillar: “I know you’ll participate in the assessment, but the reason I wanted to talk to you in private is because I was afraid you’d only humor me.”
Qiao Shao: “???”
Brother Pillar said earnestly: “I’m afraid you would look down on this little event, not take part in it because you’d think it too troublesome. You’re not going to fail the assessment on purpose, will you?”
Qiao Shao was speechless. No, Brother Pillar, you’re thinking too much. I really don’t have this ability!
With his quick hand speed, Brother Pillar quickly elaborated on what he meant.
“East High is filled with Crouching Tigers and Hidden Dragons. There’s He Shen on the one hand and Lou Xiao on another. They are both people of resounding fame. They have just brought fame to this school, but are they not so well hidden? One of them does not act at all like the top student in the entire school. He sleeps all day, picks fights, is never seen without a cigarette in hand and is a real live delinquent. The other looks so refined and educated with glasses on but once they come off, who could have known that he’d fight until their heads broke and blood overflowed.
Qiao Shao stared unblinkingly at this block of words.
He Shen really doesn’t conform to the traditional notion of a top student. He does love to sleep and is a little bit bad, but he doesn’t smoke.
Qiao Shao looked very unhappy.
As for Lou Xiao, oh, it turns out he used to wear glasses.
Brother Pillar wasn’t finished and the next big paragraph came over once again. “With so many warnings taken from an overturned cart ahead, I reasonably began to suspect that you are also a well-hidden master. However our Mathematics Society has been anonymous since its establishment and would never invade your privacy. We are already very happy to have you join us. I only hope that you would not hide your strength. I hope you can face this league competition head on and fight for East High as well as our Society! ”
Qiao Shao’s reading speed couldn’t keep up with his typing speed...
He couldn’t help but say, “It’s nothing like that. I’m just an ordinary first year high school student.”
Top Pillar: “I know. God He Shen, too, often said that he was an ordinary first year high school student.”
Qiao Shao: “&#k2026;”
Top Pillar added “Oh, Lou Xiao also said it, that he is an ordinary first year high school student.”
Qiao Shao began to doubt what the words “ordinary first year high school student” meant!
Seeing that anything he said would be of no use, Qiao Shao could only conclude with, “I will take the assessment seriously. If I can pass the selection, I will join the league with you.”
Top Pillar: “Don’t take it that seriously.”
Qiao Shao: “???”
Brother Pillar said assuredly, “At your level, if you use even just five percent of your true strength, you’d wipe the ground with everyone.”
Qiao Shao: “........................”
Was it too late for him to quit the club now? Why does he feel like he’s on a pirate ship?
Qiao Shao reported to He Shen that evening, “I decided to participate in the club’s assessment.”
He Shen immediately said, “Come to my place that weekend. I’ll tutor you.”
Qiao Shao hesitated. “We’re always going to your place ...”
He Shen said, “There’s no outsiders here.”
Qiao Shao wanted to go, but he felt uncomfortable.
While he was hesitating, He Shen changed tacks and asked, “Then, should we go to your house?”
Qiao Shao was startled.
“You promised to participate in the assessment, you have to come up with a good result. Aimless reviewing won’t do.” He Shen presented it logically, “If you don’t want to go to my house, then we’ll go to your house.”
Go to my house? I’m afraid we won’t get any reviewing done. I’ll first have to send you to the hospital to recover the three liters of blood I would have scared out of you!
Qiao Shao quickly shook his head and said, “Let’s go to your place. It’s more convenient to go to your place.”
He Shen teased him, “What is Young Master Qiao nervous about? Are you afraid I’d get lost in your enormous mansion?”
He was joking again that he was Qiao Zongmin’s son.
Qiao Shao stared at him. “Who told you that Qiao Zongmin’s house is enormous?”
He Shen curved his lips in a smile. “It can’t be that someone on the Forbes list doesn’t have a mansion, right?”
Qiao Shao pouted. “My family doesn’t subscribe to such nonsense.”
Granddad really has a “castle” abroad, but no one lives there.
And contrary to what one might expect, Grandpa’s courtyard house was actually quite comfortable.
However, there were indeed those needlessly extravagant mansions that He Shen mentioned. When he was a kid, he followed Da Qiao to visit a house belonging to the Xie Family. Their garden was huge. From the gate, it took 10 minutes in the car for them to stop in front of the seaside villa.
But what’s the use?
It’s a huge, fragmented shell.
Qiao Shao remembered Da Qiao also telling him. “Don’t approach the Xie’s family’s children.”
This was quite strange for Qiao Shao. After far as he could remember, what Da Qiao said most was for him to play with other children, whether it was Aunt Wu’s jie jie, the Chens’ little treasure or even the gardener’s granddaughter ...
Qiao Zongmin always encouraged him to get close to other children, but this time he told him not to approach.
Qiao Shao asked his dad why.
Qiao Zongmin only said, “They’re dangerous and might bully you.”
At that time, Qiao Shao didn’t understand, but now he could. How can a big tree with rotten roots be expected to grow healthy branches?
Qiao Shao was startled. He was unexpectedly able to recall such an early memory.
He hasn’t had any “memories” for a long time.
At that time, he was only six or seven years old; the age when he was the most fearless.
He remembered...
A chill crawled up his back, like a cold snake.
At this moment, He Shen’s voice in his ears came as a reminder, “Okay, then I’ll have to inconvenience the young master to stay over at my humble abode.”
Qiao Shao suddenly returned to his senses and turned to look at him.
He Shen noticed his dazed look. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.”
Qiao Shao’s head was a bit heavy, but fortunately, his mind was not blank as before.
He Shen stared as the color returned to his ashen lips and didn’t ask.
Qiao Shao shook his head and muttered, “It’s a little stuffy, um, I’ll open the window.”
He Shen pushed down on his shoulder and said, “I’ll open it.”
Qiao Shao didn’t feel like getting up either, he nodded. “En.”
The cool spring evening wind blew in from the window. Qiao Shao gradually calmed down.
He looked intently at the paper and focused his thoughts on the physics problem at hand.
Not this week...
Next week, he’ll go home next week. He should go see Dr. Zhang.
Finally, there were “memories”, although very short and somewhat inexplicable, but ... this should be a good development. Coming to East High was the right choice. Qiao Shao thought sincerely — it was good that he met He Shen.
On Saturday afternoon, the school tyrant’s cell phone rang.
Lou Xiao took out his phone and took a look.
He Shen: “What do you want to eat tonight?”
The school tyrant had long perfected his dead eyed stare.
He Shen said, “I remember there’s a restaurant that serves really good beef. What’s it called?”
Lou Xiao saw through him. “Can’t you two eat by yourselves!”
“No,” He Shen said, “He feels bad when I spend money so I can only go and find you.”
Lou Xiao was never short of money, but he doesn’t want to be a light bulb!
“I found it, on Chongqing Road.” He Shen had already delivered the final verdict. “That’s it then. You’ll invite people out to eat and I’ll pay for it.”
The school tyrant would rather pay double, just don’t ask him to go!
