Chapter 45: The Person I Like

  Xizi glared at Liang Ziqin with anger in her eyes, but didn't dare say anything. Gu Xiao pushed Xizi and stood up to her own position. The surrounding classmates who were watching the commotion looked away as the two dispersed.

  Because of an unpleasant incident during class, the two people started ignoring each other again.

  The two afternoon self-study classes were Xīzi's training time, and she returned with a big sweat. Xīzi hastily tidied up her homework and eagerly squeezed beside Gǔ Xiǎo.

  Although Liang Ziqin still had some resentment in his heart about what happened that morning, seeing Xizi sweating profusely, he lowered his head and said: "Don't worry, today's homework isn't a lot. You should follow me carefully and write it well, we can finish it before school is over."

  Xizi was caught by him today, and he looked very embarrassed in front of Gu Xiao. With a grievance in his heart, he held his homework book on the table and forced himself to calm down. He said: "Why do I have to follow you to write? Will the earth stop spinning without you? You're being overly sentimental."

  After finishing speaking, she put the book on the stool and walked to the edge of Gu Xiao's desk with her arms around it.

  "Kindness is met with ingratitude, I'm done caring about you..." Liang Ziqin rolled her eyes at Xi Zi and began writing her own homework, seething with anger inside.

  Xizi puckered her lips and smiled as she sat down beside Gu Xiao's desk. "In Hainan, you said you'd teach me how to do my homework. You haven't forgotten, have you?"

  Gu Xiao saw that she was willing to write her homework herself, smiled lightly and said: "Of course, you go ahead and write first, if there's anything you don't understand later, ask me."

  Li Xu gently hugged Gu Xiao's arm and pouted: "Xiao, why do you care about her? Doesn't she have Liang Zi Qian?"

  "What business is it of yours?" Xi Zi gritted her teeth and glared at Li Xu.

  Li Xu then saw Li Meng moving a stool to sit in Xi Zi's position. He teased, "I told you to turn around and take a look, or else you'll lose your rice while trying to steal a chicken! Your spot has been taken by someone."

  Xizi turned around and met Li Meng's gaze head-on.

  "I have some questions that I don't know how to answer, so I'll ask Liang Ziqin." Li Meng said, speaking up first in case Xizi said something unpleasant.

  Xizi smiled and looked at Li Meng. Her deskmate was Qian Xin, the third in class. Usually, her grades were on par with Liang Ziqin and Liang Xi, but she always got nervous during exams, so she ended up being third every time. If there was a problem, she would just tap the shoulder of the person in front of her, which wasn't more convenient.

  "Exchanging studies is no problem, but let me remind you. That Liang Gongzi already has Zhu Yingtai. If you have other intentions, I advise you to give up early!" Xizi said.

  Li Meng looked a bit embarrassed, biting her lower lip and lowering her head, saying: "I don't understand what you're saying."

  Qian Xin turned around and chimed in: "Xizi, don't worry about it, their male god is Teacher Liu."

  Xizi was just kidding, didn't expect Li Meng to be disappointed. Turned around and smiled at Gu Xiao, then lowered her head to do her homework.

  Li Meng's face turned slightly red, she picked up her stool and wanted to leave.

  "What's wrong? Can't solve a problem and need to ask me?" Liang Ziqin pulled back Li Meng who was about to leave.

  Li Meng's thoughts were the same as Xi Zi's, thinking that near water tower first gets moon. Being pulled by Liang Ziqin, the small flame of hope in her heart burned even brighter. "En." She smiled sweetly and moved closer to Liang Ziqin.

  A few days later, in the physical education class, Class 165 and Class 164 were together. After free exercise, Liang Ziqin sat shoulder to shoulder with Qi Shuo on the grandstand of the playground. Because Xizi was a long-distance runner, while other students rested, she was still running laps.

  Zi Shuo looked at Xi Zi, who was jogging with her ponytail swinging behind her. He nudged Liang Ziqin beside him and said: "Hey, I think Xi Zi is having a tough time too. Although she doesn't study hard, running like this every day is quite tiring. If you have nothing better to do, don't always make things difficult for her."

  Liang Ziqin spat out the water he was drinking and said: "Me, sympathize with her? Are you kidding me? You're not mistaken, are you? Have you fallen for her?"

  "Go, go, go! Which pot doesn't open, take that one." Zhi Shuo regretted saying this, and Yu Fei is still upset about it, so she's been deliberately keeping her distance from him.

  "Isn't it just infatuation? Has he even lost his most basic sense of right and wrong?" Liang Ziqin asked.

  Qizhuo frowned and said: "What kind of idea is that? During the physical education class yesterday, it was really your fault."

  "I'm wrong? I was almost scolded to death. Am I wrong?" Liang Ziqin took in that sulking expression, how could Qi Xiao speak up for her like this.

  "Is she anxious because you made that gesture and everyone laughed at her?"

  "That day she was really abnormal, didn't you notice?" Liang Ziqin felt that the last action was a bit too much.

  "She has someone she likes now, didn't you notice?" Qi Si thought that Liang Zi Qian was a very good person. It's just that he loved studying too much and never noticed the emotional changes of those around him.

  "Is she? Does she?"

  Zi Shuo furrowed his brow and asked: "She's also a girl, has someone she likes, is that strange?"

  "What did she say to you?" Liang Ziqin asked, sipping the water in his hand, looking at Xizi who was sweating profusely but still walking steadily. He thought that apart from her poor studies, she wasn't too annoying. If it were that day, letting her make a fool of herself in front of someone she liked, he indeed wasn't right either.

  "Really." Zhi Xiao said affirmatively: "That day she asked me, what kind of girls do boys like. If she didn't have someone she liked already, why would she ask me this?"

  Liang Ziqin smiled and said: "Really? That's quite interesting. I wonder who it is, so unlucky?"

  Zi Shuo also smiled lightly and said: "I don't know who it is, but it must be the person who gave her the rubber band."

  Rubber band? Didn't you buy it yourself? Someone asked in surprise: "Are you sure?"

  "Of course, I'm sure. Xīzi doesn't have any casual clothes, and on non-uniform days, she also wears the uniform. Our school uniform is a combination of deep blue and white, without much color. So Xīzi's hair tie, every day has a different color. But look now, her head, every day is topped with that one."

  "Just based on this you can be certain?" Liang Ziqin was somewhat skeptical, thinking it's also possible that Xizi just liked him a lot, or maybe not.

  Qī Zhuó gave him a glance and said: "Of course, haven't you noticed that she always subconsciously touches the braid behind her back?"

  Liang Ziqin's heart sank as he finished speaking. He furrowed his brow and gazed at Xizi on the track.

  "What's wrong? What kind of expression is this?"

  Liang Ziqin furrowed his brow and said: "That, that rubber band was given by me to her."

  "Ah——" Qi Shuo's mouth was agape, staring at Liang Ziqin in disbelief. He exclaimed loudly: "Xizi actually likes you?"

  Liang Ziqin covered Qi Shuo's mouth with one hand and said: "Shut up, do you want the whole world to know?"

  Zi Shuo's big eyes stared at Liang Zi Qian's hand covering his own. Liang Zi Qian thought he had calmed down, so he let go of his hand and looked at Xi Zi in the distance with some difficulty.

  Zi Xiao laughed and said: "Actually, you don't have to be too sad, Xizi is also very pretty, it's just that Fan'er can be a bit silly sometimes."

  "Then go after her?"

  Dong! The bell rang, signaling the end of class.

  Zi Xiao stood up with a smile and said: "I'll let it go, you think for yourself, what can be done?"

  The two of them walked together towards the classroom building.
