Chapter 3: The Most Humble When I Like You (5)

  Tang followed Qin Laoshi with a nervous heart.

  In the classroom, several girls were whispering and giggling: "The east window affair has been exposed! Hehe!"

  "Lucky she dressed so similarly that day!"

  "Right, then let's put on a show!"

  "What's going on with Dongchuang?" Gu Xiannian asked with great interest.

  "It's about the classroom being messed up!" Du Juan replied casually.

  "The real culprit is her?" Gu Xiannian's eyes widened in shock, looking like he didn't dare to believe it.

  "Don't you believe me? But it was her!" Du Juan looked furious at Gu Xian's attitude, the last four words were said with gritted teeth.

  "Why did she have to do this? What's her motive?" Gu Xianyuan seemed to be defending Tang Su.

  "It's all because of you!" Dujuan said resentfully.

  "Why me?" Gu Xiannian was even more bewildered.

  "Don't tell me you don't know that Tang Su likes you!" Du Juan said sarcastically.

  Gu Xian year nervously looked around, few classmates were reading English, all ears perked up and listened intently to their conversation, even several boys who had always disliked Gu Xian year but had no chance to bully him had endless ridicule on their faces.

  Gu Xian suddenly felt his face burning, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. In his heart, he had some resentment towards Du Juan for speaking without discretion, causing him to lose face in front of everyone.

  He coughed twice and said, "Stop making a fuss, read in English!"

  Camellia was unwilling to let it go, looking at him coldly: "Speak your mind, Head Monitor? In fact, you also like Tang Sugar, don't you?"

  Du Juanjuan stepped forward step by step.

  Her words exploded like an atomic bomb in the class, and everyone's attention was drawn to Gu Xianian.

  Gu Xiannian was scrutinized by those gazes until he couldn't be calm anymore, and from those gazes, he read more contempt.

  He didn't want to be associated with Tang Sugar, or he would definitely become the laughing stock of all the boys in the class, and he wouldn't be the male god in the girls' hearts anymore.

  Even Li Jie, the most slovenly and least respected boy in class, disdained to associate with Tang Su, let alone Gu Xiannian!

  He hastily defended himself for the first time in his life, shouting: "I just like a pig and won't like her!"

  The whole class suddenly fell silent, first staring at him in shock, then everyone's gaze shifted to the classroom door.

  The azalea had a triumphant smile on her face.

  Gu Xianian, who was facing away from the classroom door, felt a sudden tension in his heart: "Could it be that Teacher Qin has arrived?"

  Just thinking that Qin Laoshi might have heard what he just said, Gu Xianian felt his face burning with shame, and his little heart couldn't stop "thumping" wildly.

  He turned his head back nervously and saw that it was not Qin Laoshi standing at the door, but rather... Tang Sugar.

  She obviously heard what Gu Xian said earlier, her emotions were low, her head hung low, and her long and dense bangs completely covered her chubby face, revealing no expression.

  She didn't look at anyone, her eyes fixed on the ground, walking step by step towards her own seat.

  Gu Xian let out a huge sigh of relief in her heart, as long as it wasn't Qin Laoshi, she was fine!

  He looked at her back, short and chubby, but for some reason, it gave him a very serious misconception. Her figure seemed so thin, so helpless, so pitiful that it tugged at his heartstrings.

  He suddenly felt a pang of bitterness, just the previous second he had inexplicably felt guilty for drawing a line with Tang sugar, feeling extremely guilty...

  He knew he had hurt a girl's heart.

  "But she's just a pig! Fat like a pig, stupid like a pig!" Du Juan loudly jeered, her words immediately resonating with many of her classmates, who laughed freely.

  His face turned bright red, wanting to say a few serious words to scold Du Juan, but as soon as he met her provocative gaze and the laughter of his classmates cheering him on, he quickly lost his nerve.

  He really didn't have the courage to break through worldly eyes and stand on Tang Su's side to speak a few fair words for her.

  Forget it! Just pretend I didn't see anything.

  In the past, he pretended as if nothing had happened.

  A figure rushed in, and the classmates who were laughing just a second before all fell silent, staring at the newcomer with tension.

  The uninvited guest slammed a bowl of stew onto Tang Sugar's desk, scanning the entire class with a fierce gaze before finally fixing his eyes on Du Juan.

  Camellia took one look at Xia Ye and her small face turned pale with fear, uneasily staring at him, afraid that he would rush over and slap her.

  On a summer night, Xia Ye suddenly picked up Tang Tang, who was pretending to read English, from his seat. His chubby body pushed the table and chairs as usual, but this time, no one dared to laugh, not even a faint smile.

  Everyone was stunned by the momentum of the summer night, and they all stared at him with wide eyes in terror.

  "Listen up, all of you! From today on, Tang Su is my girlfriend! Anyone who dares to bully her will have to ask me first!"

  "Who wants to be your girlfriend!" Tang Sugar struggled free from his grasp, glaring at Xia Ye with a mix of shame and annoyance. In her heart, she silently cursed: Originally, Gu Xiannian was already indifferent to her, not wanting any relationship with her, yet he still came to stir up trouble!

  She got angrier and angrier, picked up the pot sticker that Xia Ye had bought for her and slapped it on his handsome face without hesitation. Still not satisfied, she pushed him out with one hand after another, each push accompanied by a "滚" (get out) character: "Get out! I don't want your pity!"

  "I'm not pitying you, I am..." Xia Ye argued strongly on that summer night.

  Just then, Teacher Qin walked in and witnessed all this. He was very angry and asked, "What are you doing?"

  Scared out of his wits, he swallowed all the words that followed and ran back to his own classroom in a flash.

  Teacher Qin looked at the scattered pot stickers and sugar paper bowls on the ground, and probably guessed a few points. He was furious with Tang Sugar and said: "Are you a good man of Liangshan or a hero among women? You're so capable of fighting, last time a bowl of powder was knocked over on Dujuan's body, this time another bowl of pot stickers was knocked over on your brother's body, is it that you have too much strength and nowhere to use it? Well! Punish you to run around the playground for ten laps!"

  Several girls in the class burst out laughing with a mixture of surprise and delight.

  Tang sugar hung his head in silence and accepted this unfair punishment.

  Teacher Qin motioned for everyone to quiet down, gave Tang Sugar a cold glance and said: "Classmates, the teacher has said before that if someone caused trouble in class last time, if the person who caused trouble voluntarily admitted their mistake within three days, the teacher would let it go. But if after three days the true culprit was found by the teacher, the teacher had said that they would definitely be severely punished!"

  Classmates who heard this have already begun whispering: "Who is it?"
