Chapter 9: First Love Lover

  "What's up, is it Pang Guang?" In the teaching affairs office, Pang Guang stood stupidly to one side, while Director Li sat down in his office chair, took a sip of tea from his cup, and asked slowly.

  "Is it Director Li? You've already asked me my name in the classroom just now." Pang Guang replied indifferently, his eyes constantly glancing outside, hoping that Director Li would speak quickly.

  Those who can be the director of teaching affairs are all quite nagging, and Director Li is no exception. After performing a profound and heart-wrenching speech, the moon had already climbed to the top of the trees, and the whole school was quiet, not to mention that I would meet that female hooligan again, nor could I see half of the male hooligans.

  "Pang Guang, you're so late on the first day of class? I'll go heat up some food, it'll be ready soon." Luo Licheng saw that Pang Guang had returned and got up to heat up the dishes in the kitchen. Pang Datou was handling a big case, the provincial hall had issued a red-headed document instructing him to personally oversee it, now there were only the two of them at home.

  "Hmm! Coming right up, what a freak! As soon as Pang Guang thought of that principal's face, he felt his heart racing and still had PTSD. He really wanted to rip off Old Man Li's mouth to see what it was made of, talking for two hours straight with only one sip of water in between."

  This time, Pang Guang did not lose his temper, but instead stood there and listened to the lecture for two hours, with his legs trembling.

  "Are you saying I'm perverted?" Luo Lijiang was taken aback.

  "Oh... no." Pang Guang found himself slipping up, and he stuck out his tongue: "I was talking about Little Japan, Mom, the dish you're stir-frying smells so good. When are we going to have braised lion's head again? I haven't had it in ages, I'm starving!"

  "Alright, mom will make it for you tomorrow. Your dad has gone on a business trip and serves him right for having no good fortune." Luo Li Qing happily turned around and went into the kitchen to bring out the ready-cooked dishes.

  While eating, Lu Lijing suddenly raised her head: "Right, this afternoon someone named Zhang Xiaoting called you, saying she was your classmate."

  "She said her name was Zhang Xiaoting?" Pang Guang was choked by the food in his throat, coughed for a long time before spitting out the food particles, and asked with a tense face: "What happened next?"

  "I told her you went to school and gave her your phone number, didn't she call you?"

  "Got it, got it." Pang Guang responded vaguely and lowered his head to peel the rice, but his heart had already flown to that girl named Zhang Xiaoting.

  "Slow down while eating, don't choke, you're eating like a starving ghost." Luo Lijing glared at Pang Guang with annoyance.

  He hastily finished his meal and found an excuse to slip out to find a public phone. He felt he couldn't delay any longer and had to act quickly to retrieve his cell phone.

  "Zhang Xiaoting ah Zhang Xiaoting, you finally called, do you know how hard I've been looking for you?" Pang Guang ran all the way, repeatedly muttering the same sentence.

  Zhang Xiaoting was his girlfriend, also his first love. However, now she should be considered an ex-girlfriend. Two years ago, Pang Guang's temper was as impulsive as it is now. One time, he unintentionally saw Zhang Xiaoting chatting intimately with a handsome boy and suddenly became jealous, punching the boy in the face. At that time, Zhang Xiaoting was very angry and indignantly proposed breaking up. Pang Guang thought that since she had already "fallen for someone else", there was no need to try to keep her.

  Until he transferred to Baishui Middle School, he coincidentally met that handsome boy again. The boy thought Pang Guang was going to hit him and ran away immediately. Pang Guang was very puzzled at the time why this person would run as soon as he saw him. He chased him for several streets before finally catching up with him. Feeling a bit familiar, after inquiring further, he found out that the boy was Zhang Xiaoting's cousin. At that moment, he regretted it immensely and just as he wanted to ask more questions, the boy ran away again. Back home, Pang Guang frantically dialed Zhang Xiaoting's phone number but was informed that her phone had been suspended. For two years, this matter became a knot in Pang Guang's heart that he couldn't untie. He wanted to apologize to Zhang Xiaoting in person and also hoped that Zhang Xiaoting would give him another chance to make up for it.

  In the public phone booth, he dialed his own cell phone number over and over again, unable to get through, with a prompt saying "in conversation" until the 18th time he pressed the redial button, when the prompt tone finally changed, a sweet female voice prompted that the phone was already turned off.

  "My god, using my phone to make prank calls?" Pang Guang burst out in anger. "You damn... female hooligan, you're going too far." Pang Guang was so angry that he wanted to smash the receiver in his hand into pieces.
