Chapter 36: First Kiss

  "Artificial respiration?" Mr. Liu frowned uncertainly, looking around at the surrounding classmates. The classmates looked at him with inquiring eyes, nodding frequently and collectively expressing their approval. "Then, you all bear witness for me, I'm doing this to save her."

  Xizi helplessly rolled her eyes and said, "Hurry up, or you'll run out of breath soon."

  Teacher Liu listened to Xizi finish, licked his lips, closed his eyes, and began to give Zhang Jiajia artificial respiration. After a few times, it really had an effect, and Zhang Jiajia slowly opened her eyes. Seeing Teacher Liu in front of her, she suddenly pushed him away and sat up. With a swing of her hand, a loud slap landed on Teacher Liu's face. The whole movement was smooth and forceful. The classmates watching from the side couldn't help but look away, unable to bear the sight. Teacher Liu was dazed from the slap, covering his face in shock as he stared at Zhang Jiajia. Zhang Jiajia glared at Teacher Liu with a resentful gaze, and after about 0.05 seconds, shouted: "Bastard, this is my first kiss!"

  "Ah——" The people surrounding her stared at the person sitting on the beach in shock. Teacher Liu also came to and exclaimed, "You were over 30 before your first kiss, how would I know?" Liu Jiajia looked around and saw her classmates' astonished faces, and her small face turned bright red with shame. She grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at Teacher Liu. Quickly getting up from the ground, she ran towards the beach's changing room. "Pfft, pfft." Teacher Liu spat out the sand in his mouth and looked at Xi Zi, complaining, "It's all your fault, why did you do CPR?"

  "Huh? I only knew she didn't have a boyfriend, how did you know her first kiss is still intact?" Xizi also didn't expect that this was actually her first kiss, awkwardly lowering her eyebrows.

  The teacher pointed at Xizi with an unpleasant tone and asked: "Is your first kiss still there?"

  "Ah?" Xīzi had been labeled as a bad student since she was young, always the laughing stock of her classmates. Not to mention her first kiss, even dating with Qíshuò was also for the first time. But looking around at the classmates who were staring with wide eyes, waiting for Xīzi's answer. She didn't dare say no, and stammered: "That, that, this is a, a secret."

  "I'm telling you, if you don't have it yet, then forget it. Don't be like Zhang Jiajia. She's already thirty and only had her first kiss." The teacher glared at the surrounding students, pointing at them one by one: "And you, you, you, all of you are the same." Just as the teacher was about to continue ranting, she suddenly stopped and fixed her gaze on two people standing behind the students. The students followed Liu's line of sight and also turned to look. It was Lin Ya and Li Xu, who were still entangled in the volleyball net, but didn't forget to watch the commotion. They had been stuck together like this from one end of the beach to the other. Judging by their stance, they didn't plan on letting go anytime soon. Liu's initial resentment dissipated as she gazed at the stubborn pair, and a smile spread across her face. She chuckled and pulled on the middle part of the net, dragging the two along. "Come on, come on, since you both love this volleyball net so much, I'll find a cool spot for you two."

  Classmates didn't know where Teacher Liu was taking them, and they all followed behind to watch the excitement. Xizi tilted her head to look ahead, a grove of coconut trees. The teacher wouldn't think of tying them up on the tree, would she? Out of sympathy, Xizi quickly followed behind Li Xu and Lin Ya, saying: "What are you two doing? It's not worth arguing with the teacher, hurry up and let go, apologize to the teacher." As she spoke, she went to grab their hands, wanting them to let go.

  Lin Ya shook off Xizi and glanced at him saying: "You let him go first."

  Li Xu sneered and stared back, saying: "You won't let me go, I won't let you go either."

  Xi Zi stood with her hands on her hips, thinking that these two were beyond salvation. She followed them again, singing "I and my proud stubbornness, grasping the net tightly, refusing to let go..."

  Xizi sang with intoxication, and her classmates listened with relish. Haha, following Teacher Liu to a coconut tree, he turned around and looked at Lin Ya and Li Xu, asking: "I'm asking you for the last time, either let me go or use this net today, and let you two entwine here, blowing sea breeze."

  Gu Xiao watched from the beginning to the end, and was unwilling to come out and say anything. But seeing these two people, forcing the teacher to this extent, she couldn't bear it anymore. She stepped forward, grasped Li Xu's hand and said: "You let go first."

  Li Xu had actually wanted to let go, but was waiting for an excuse. Gu Xiao's words immediately made him release the ball net and say: "My Xiaoxiao told me to let go, so I did." Lin Ya saw Li Xu let go and also quickly released it, her face dark and silent.

  "Alright, alright, go do what you need to do." Teacher Liu said impatiently. Although she felt inexplicably slapped by Zhang Jiajia, she suddenly remembered that her first kiss was still intact and some sympathy ran out in her heart. Looking at her classmates scattering away to play, she lay alone on the long chair on the beach, starting to worry if Zhang Jiajia would be very upset.

  Gu Xiao pulled Li Xu's attention to himself because he had just let go of his hand. His hand, which was hurt from pulling the net earlier, wanted Gu Xiao to blow on it. Gu Xiao looked at him and almost spat out his heart. However, Xi Zi suddenly remembered her own wrist and thought back to that night in the car shed. Her hand wasn't actually that painful, but after Gu Xiao touched her wrist, she felt a burning sensation. She couldn't help but rub her wrist, wanting to find an opportunity to investigate Gu Xiao's wrist further. Pretending to rest on the long chair, she was actually observing Gu Xiao's movements. Gu Xiao knew Li Xu couldn't swim and wanted to get rid of him, so he pushed Li Xu away and jumped into the sea. Li Xu was timid but didn't want to wear a life jacket, so he could only stand in the shallow water, watching Gu Xiao play with the other boys.

  Xizi felt the opportunity had arrived, so she tied up her hair and jumped into the azure sea. On purpose, she shouted for help near Gu Xiao: "Gu Xiao, Gu Xiao——" Gu Xiao turned around, saw Xizi floating on the surface of the water, and hurriedly swam over. As Gu Xiao approached, Xizi held her breath and dove underwater. When Gu Xiao's hand came close, Xizi grabbed it from under the water. Gu Xiao suddenly lost his balance and also sank into the sea. With her eyes open in the water, Xizi reached out to Gu Xiao's right wrist. Her guess was correct; a pattern identical to the one on her own palm appeared on Gu Xiao's wrist. Just as Xizi was thrilled with excitement, she saw Gu Xiao's ferocious face. Clearly already half-dead from choking, he still had his mouth open and was drinking seawater. Instinctively, Xizi kissed Gu Xiao's mouth; Gu Xiao stared at Xizi in shock. Feeling her hand being released, she swam out of the water with all her might.

  "Cough, cough..." Fresh air suddenly flooded into her nostrils, but Gu Xiao couldn't stop coughing because she had inhaled water.

  Xizi also poked her head out of the water and asked, "Are you okay?"

  Gu Xiang looked at Xi Zi's uncoordinated movements and said: "I'm fine, let's swim quickly to the shore."
