How to Easily Capture a Long Aotian [Quick Transmigration] 97

Chapter 97: My One and Only (Part 2)

In No. 1 High School, the liberal arts class and the science class were like two distinct boundaries, very close, but also very far. They were clearly together in class, but they were also distant everywhere.

Chen Shizhou had passed by the door of the sixteenth class several times, and he had also deliberately taken a detour when he had gone downstairs, and he had gone down the stairs from this side. But perhaps he had not come at the right time, or perhaps it was not the right time. For two whole months, he had never seen Yu Lin.

The mid-term exams were imminent, and at the same time as the atmosphere in the few teaching buildings had become uniformly tense, the extracurricular activities had been reduced, and the class was a dead silence. Many people did not even have the strength to joke, and they would lie on their desks all day long, drowsy.

“The school has arranged for us to watch a movie during the self-study class tonight.” After the self-study class, the homeroom teacher had suddenly come in with the meeting minutes, and she had dropped a bombshell.

It was as if a ray of sunlight had been injected into a rainy day. With this sentence, the entire classroom had become bright.

The classroom had erupted in a roar, and many people had come to their senses.

“Is it for the whole school?” The sports committee member had raised his hand and had asked. After thinking for a moment, he had hesitated again, and he had scratched his head. “Teacher, our class’s computer seems to be broken… hasn’t it been repaired yet?”

Their homeroom teacher, Lin Wen, was young, but she had been an old teacher for several years, and she was full of experience. Hearing this, she had paused for a moment, and then she had smiled, and she had supported herself on the stage and had looked down. “Then find a way. Anyway, I won’t let you have a self-study class in the classroom.”

“Like this.” she had instructed, “After class, you can go and ask the familiar classes if there are any empty seats, and you can put our classmates in, and you can watch with the other classes. But you must abide by the discipline in the other classes. If I hear that someone…”

She had paused for a moment. “If I hear that someone has broken the discipline of another class, then we’d better have a self-study class in the future.”

After a round of knocking, and in the cheers of the first class, the bell for the end of class had rung on time.

The incandescent lights were casting a pale light from above, and the classroom was very noisy, and it was very lively. After the class division, the familiar friends had been separated. At this time, there was a legitimate reason to go and find friends, and it seemed to be even more exciting than watching a movie.

“Shizhou, which class are you going to ask?” Zhou Yang had come over with a ball in his hand. As a classmate for two years, he was one of the few who were closer to Chen Shizhou.

The number one in the grade did not have a bad personality, and he would also help to answer questions when he had them. He also had a super handsome face, but his personality was a little cold, which made people not dare to be too presumptuous in front of him.

He was like the complete opposite of the number one in the liberal arts class next door. He had heard that that person was very popular, and he was also good-looking, and he was a proper campus male god.

The students of the first class were all used to Chen Shizhou like this. Seeing Zhou Yang ask, and worried that he was too lazy to open his mouth, they all extended a helping hand. “Do you want to go with me? I’m planning on going to the sixth class. My good brother is there, and we can secretly play games.”

“I’m going to the third class.”

“The second class is so close. I don’t want to run anymore.”

“That’s right. I’m going to the sixteenth class…”

In the blurry voices, a faint keyword was mixed in, and it was very inconspicuous in the midst of the noisy crowd.

Chen Shizhou had lifted his eyelids and had looked at the person who had made the sound. The young man who was sitting at the third row of desks was spinning a pen. Seeing him look over, he was stunned for a moment. “Uh… I’m going to the sixteenth class to find a friend. Do you want to go with me?”

Chen Shizhou looked at him, and then he nodded and agreed. “Okay.”

The process of going to the sixteenth class was smooth. It was easy for high school students to get along with each other, and it was also a sacred activity like watching a movie. When one side was in trouble, all sides would help. After hearing about the predicament of the first class, and as long as they had asked for help, there was no class that had not agreed.

The sky was getting dark, and many classes had started to play music one after another. The students of the first class had picked up their stools and were preparing to go out to find their friends. Lin Wen was standing at the door of the classroom and was carefully instructing them, and then she had waved her hand to signal that they could leave.

The figures in school uniforms had filed out. The young man who had brought Chen Shizhou to the movie was called Zhang Jiang. He had greeted Chen Shizhou at the door. “Let’s go too.”

When he had come out, he had glanced at the tall and straight body of the number one in the grade by his side, and a big handsome face, and he had shouted in his heart, Damn, it’s really annoying to compare people.

The classmates of the sixteenth class were also looking forward to it. Because their own class had a Yu Lin, the classmates were proud of it, so they were full of curiosity about the name that was side by side with Yu Lin on the report card.

When the news had come in the afternoon, some people had wanted to see the peerless scene of the two number ones side by side, and even the seat that had been reserved for Chen Shizhou was next to Yu Lin.

But Yu Lin had something to do in the afternoon, and he had been called away by the history teacher, and he had not come back until dinner.

The self-study had started, and the movie was already playing. The lights in the classroom had been turned off, and it was dark. Chen Shizhou had followed Zhang Jiang in, and in the faint light, his eyes had accurately swept to the position by the window in the fourth row.

There was no one, and the position that had originally been occupied by the owner was empty.

Chen Shizhou had paused for a moment, and Zhang Jiang had already walked over and had sat down, and he had occupied the position by the empty seat, and at the same time, he had waved at Chen Shizhou. “Come here, come here. We’ll sit here tonight.”

The people he was familiar with were sitting in the front row, and they had turned their heads to talk to him. Chen Shizhou had gone over and had sat by his side, and his eyelids had lightly swept to the side.

The desks in No. 1 High School were all the same, and they were of the same size, and they were arranged side by side. Chen Shizhou’s gaze had fallen on the empty seat by the window.

The light was dim, and the sound of the movie was a little blurry. He could see that Yu Lin’s desk was very clean, and there were very few things on it. There was only an open history book, and it was probably that the owner had left in a hurry after class and had not had time to close it.

A simple drawing had been drawn with a pen in the upper right corner of the desk. With the faint light, Chen Shizhou had barely been able to recognize that it was a young man holding a sword.

Zhang Jiang was chatting with his friends, and his gaze was moving around casually, and he had been attracted by this drawing. He had leaned over and had asked his friend with curiosity, “Hey… what is this?”

His friend had craned his neck to take a look, and he had smiled, and he had explained, “Oh, it’s our Brother Lin’s new work, ‘The Hero Saves the World.’ How is it? It’s well-drawn, right? It’ll be updated in a few days. You can come and see it, haha.”

The number one in the liberal arts stream of the sixteenth class was a very creative young man. He not only had a good personality, and he was good at studying, and he was good-looking, but when he had nothing to do, he would also serialize a small manga in the corner of his desk.

The few familiar classes all knew, but they had all tacitly agreed not to disturb him. They would only quietly go over to take a look when they were borrowing notes, and then they would chase him for an update.

“A while ago, it was a little general who had started a rebellion. You didn’t catch it. This time, it’s the number one protagonist of the manga world, a hot-blooded story of saving mankind.”

His friend had explained, and he had supported his chin with a chuckle, and he had said to Zhang Jiang, “How is it? It’s well-drawn, right?”

The girl at the same table was a cute girl with a blue ribbon. Hearing this, she had turned her head, and she had glanced at the manga, and she had touched her chin. “Of course. I think that the great Lin Lin will definitely become a very powerful manga artist in the future.”

“Is that so?” Zhang Jiang had also touched his chin. “The drawing is very good, but he’s number one. It sounds very promising. Won’t he go into scientific research or study finance to find a high-paying job? He would be more outstanding in the eyes of the teachers and parents, right?”

“Friend.” His friend had laughed when he had heard this, and he had said to him, “Not all number ones have to follow the path set by the teachers and parents. If you think about it from another angle, isn’t it also very amazing to be able to create works that make people feel happy after they see them?”

The girl with the ribbon had heard this and had silently complained to her deskmate, “Don’t always copy Lin Lin’s quotes, okay?”

Her deskmate had chuckled. “But that’s what Brother Lin said.”

Yu Lin was a very special person. He seemed to have a unique sense of power. Even in a competitive class, his popularity was still very high.

On the night of the movie class, he had been kept in the office by the history teacher to help grade papers. He had not been able to come until the movie was over.

Chen Shizhou had not been able to see him, but Chen Shizhou had still known a lot about him. When he had passed by the office, he had looked up, and he had glanced into the office, which had a slight gap, and he had seemed to have seen the young man’s shining face as he had bumped into him.

***

Time had passed unconsciously, and the two people who had no interaction seemed to never have crossed paths.

Chen Shizhou had always passed by the door of the sixteenth class, and he had seen the manga being updated. He had seen many special characters, but he had rarely seen the person who had created these works.

Occasionally, he would catch a glimpse of him, either standing by the stage and talking to someone, or he would be by the window with a smile on his face. Chen Shizhou had engraved the scene in his mind, and he would always remember it for a long time.

As the holiday was approaching, the school was going to hold a literary and art evening, and each class had to have at least one performance.

The first class had uncreatively chosen someone to sing, but everyone had their own things to do, and no one had signed up for a long time. Lin Wen had specially mentioned this in the class meeting, and her expression had been very serious. In the end, a girl had said that she could sing.

In the end, after a selection, because Chen Shizhou could play the piano, he had been chosen to be the accompanist.

After the list had been submitted, someone had pulled them into a group. The group’s name was “No. 1 High School’s Literary and Art Gala,” and there were many people in it. The format of the notes was uniformly “Class XX, XXX.”

Chen Shizhou had originally not paid any attention to it after he had entered, but one day, he had occasionally seen the group’s name, and his heart had stirred, and he had searched in it.

Second year (16) class, Yu Lin.

The light from the electronic screen was a little dazzling. Chen Shizhou had silently looked at this name for a long time.

At that time, he was not very clear about where his feelings came from, and where they were going. He looked at this name that had unexpectedly bumped into his arms in the summer’s pink flower rain, and his finger had lifted and then had fallen on the “add” button.

The clear fragrance of mint candy seemed to still be lingering at the tip of his nose.

The literary and art gala was very successful. Chen Shizhou had played a piano piece on the stage, and Yu Lin’s class had put on a stage play, and he had played a little mushroom in it.

The little mushroom had not felt bored either. After he had gone off stage, he had been talking to someone backstage with a smile. Someone had joked with him, and his features had been curved, and he had never been impatient.

Someone had laughed and had teased, “Great Mushroom Spirit, will the next protagonist be a mushroom spirit?”

He had also smiled and had satisfied them, “Okay.”

Chen Shizhou was sitting behind the curtain, and the surroundings were a vacuum. There were also people who had wanted to talk to him in the freezing light, but they did not know how to break the ice correctly.

The sound of laughter had come from next door. He was in black clothes and black trousers, and he was cold and silent, and he had not left, and he would occasionally look in that direction.

He had set up many plans in his mind.

How he should get up, how he should pretend to be natural, and how he should go up and start a conversation, and how they would naturally get to know each other, and perhaps they would become friends after that.

He even had an excellent excuse: Hello, I’m the person you bumped into at the school gate at the beginning of the school year.

Yu Lin would be a little surprised. When he was surprised, his eyelashes would lift, and they would look very long, and a fine light would sprinkle on them, and it would make his whole person soften, and then he would smile and say, “Oh, it’s you, classmate.” And perhaps he would also give him a candy.

They would get to know each other, and they would become friends. And then? And then? Chen Shizhou did not dare to think too deeply.

He did not want to think about the thought that he himself also found terrifying.

At that time, in the hot campus that was blown by the summer wind, this thought was very terrifying, very strange. Once it was exposed, they would become completely different in the eyes of the people around them, and they would be arrogant and aggressive.

Chen Shizhou was silent, and in the end, he had not taken any action. He had lifted his eyelashes and had looked at the flashing lights on the stage.

Yu Lin was sitting behind him, and they were in the same backstage. They were so close, and it was as if they were sharing a lively atmosphere, even though they did not know each other.
