Chapter 8 Mouse

  Xizi didn't arrive late today, and her voice followed with a loud response: "Present." She sat up straight, looking like a good student. With a smile on her face, she looked at Teacher Zhang standing by the door.

  " You——you——you you you——” Mr. Zhang said, as he walked up to Xizi's desk. He slapped his hands heavily on Xizi's table and said with a serious tone: "How come you're not late today? How could you possibly not be late today?"

  "My goodness? Although I'm not late, my parents think it's strange, but Teacher Liu doesn't have to be so exaggerated and run all the way to class just to congratulate me? Thinking of this, Xizi looked a bit shy and said: "Ah, actually I'm also very surprised. But you don't have to go out of your way to come congratulate me, it's kind of embarrassing.""

  "Congratulations to you, huh?" The speaker poked Xizi's head with his index finger and scolded in a stern voice: "Didn't I tell you that there's a competition after the final exam? How can you reduce your training opportunities at this time?"

  "Ah——" Xi Zi immediately froze as if she had been doused with ice water, her big mouth agape.

  "Hah——cough, cough." Liang Ziqin found it hilarious and didn't dare laugh out loud in front of the physical education teacher. He deliberately coughed to cover up his already flipped heart. But classmates sitting farther away were already laughing together.

  Teacher Liu, who was killing the chicken, pointed at Liang Ziqin and said: "What are you laughing at? Shut up. If you want to run laps during physical education class, that's fine." The physical education teacher is usually quite serious, and some students are a bit afraid of him. But because he looks handsome and has six-pack abs, he also has many fans who have a crush on him.

  Among them was Li Meng, who disliked Xi Ze the most. At this time, she sat up straight and said, "What's so funny? You don't even know how to respect your teacher and the Tao."

  Teacher Liu listened with great satisfaction and said: "Li Meng's words are right, I don't know about respecting teachers and valuing morality." While speaking, he walked out the door and didn't forget to remind Xizi at the entrance. "Remember to be late tomorrow."

  "Oh." Xīzi was like a frost-bitten eggplant, her body limp and her mouth half open, letting out a faint sound. After hearing Xīzi's response, Teacher Liu left the classroom with a sense of relief. As soon as the teacher left, the entire classroom erupted into laughter without exception. Especially Liáng Zǐqín, who usually pretended to be aloof, had eyes that were already laughing so hard they were crying. He was even holding his stomach and bending at the waist, using his book to slap the desk. "Hey——Liáng Zǐqín——I'm telling you, you're enough! Do you want to be this happy?" His face red, he pulled out his early morning study book and slammed it onto the desk. The classmates saw that he was about to get angry and also restrained their laughter, starting to whisper and discuss in hushed tones. Xīzi couldn't hear them, but she knew her classmates were talking about her. She muttered: "What kind of world is this? In the past, being late would get you laughed at, now not being late also gets you laughed at. It's like I'm not allowed to be on time." Ah——she called out softly, using her pencil to fiercely poke at her book, venting her emotions. Liáng Zǐqín looked at her childish behavior with disdain and flipped open his own book.

  During the second big class break, the head teacher called a few classmates to fetch the summer school uniforms. Of course, Xi Zi was among them - who could resist her strong and powerful physique? When they arrived at the school's warehouse, they coincidentally saw Qi Xiao from the neighboring class. A few boys were hiding in a corner not far from the warehouse, taking off their tops to try on the new uniforms. Although Xi Zi was a bit of a tomboy usually, she still felt a little shy seeing the boys with their backs exposed, and quickly turned her head away trying not to look at them. However, wait a minute - wasn't that Xī saying that close contact was needed for the Totem to appear? Wasn't this an opportunity now? "Old Mouse!" Xi Zi shouted loudly.

  Although several of Qi's roommates were boys, mice were disgusting creatures. Several people took off their shirts and searched around for the mouse's trail. "Where is it? Where is it?"

  "There, there, just there." Xizi rushed over with a helpful expression, pushing aside several male classmates to squeeze in beside Qizhuo. "Ah——it's there!" she shouted loudly to distract everyone else while grasping Qizhuo's arm. She felt carefully, but didn't feel anything. Could it be on his neck? "A mosquito," she exclaimed, and slapped the back of his head with force.

  "What's wrong with you?" Zhi Xiao, who was slapped painfully, frowned at Xizi.

  Several boys looked for half a day and didn't see any mice. They stopped and pointed at Xi Zi, saying: "Ma Liang, what are you up to?"

  Xizi saw that everyone had regained their composure and knew that trying to probe further today would be futile. She stubbornly said, "I really did see a mouse just now."

  Zi Xiao thought she was going to take revenge for yesterday's matter, but since he was a boy and let her have her way, it didn't matter. "Forget it, forget it, let's just go get our school uniforms quickly." He said, turning his back on Xi Zi and walking towards the distribution area.

  Xizi took a sneak peek at her palm, nothing was there. She stared at Qi Chuo's back, wanting to get to the bottom of it. Closing her eyes, she steeled herself and rushed over quickly. "Ah, Qi Chuo, you really are a magnanimous person!" Before Qi Chuo could turn around, her right hand had already touched the edge of his back.

  Zi Shuo was shocked and pushed Xi Zi away, hastily putting on the T-shirt that was still inside out in his hands. "What are you doing?" He had known before that Ma Liang was a weirdo, but he hadn't expected him to be a female pervert. With an expression of being taken advantage of, he looked flustered and his face turned red with shame.

  Several boys with him laughed and said: "Zi Shuo Ma Liang has taken a liking to you, haha. It's safer if you're ugly." "Haha, haha."

  Xizi still felt uneasy, but just letting them talk like this wasn't a solution either. Xizi clenched her fists and stretched her neck. "Come on, speak louder so everyone can hear," she said, looking like she wanted to fight.

  "Xizi——" The teacher in charge of the warehouse shouted loudly. "And you several, how can you bully a female classmate together? Are you men?" The storage teacher actually saw what happened just now and knew that there was no mouse at all. However, Xizi is a girl after all, and such ridicule is too hurtful to her self-esteem, so she spoke out in support.

  "But just now it was obviously......" Someone who doesn't understand the situation still wants to argue.

  "What's wrong? Come and get your school uniform quickly." The storage teacher urged impatiently, looking at Qi Xiao. "And you, did someone slap a mosquito for you?"

  Xizi felt proud and pleased with herself. "Exactly, isn't it?"

  "Shut up and get your class clothes quickly." The storage teacher was still fair and wouldn't favor anyone.

  "Oh." Xizi deliberately raised her head, pretending nothing was wrong. However, she had developed the skill of not showing her emotions on her face after being ridiculed so often, but in reality, she was already ashamed to death.
