Shut up, I am really a pure love god of war!

Chapter 35: Blind Charge Often Goes the Other Way
Monday morning, light rain.

Baiyang doesn’t like rainy days very much, and he dislikes it even more when he finds that he doesn’t even have an umbrella.

By the time I arrived at the classroom, my hair was already half wet.

Zhong Xilu changed her clothes again today. She wore a bright red dress, which looked particularly gorgeous against the gloomy rainy sky.

Bai Yang originally thought that the other party would be in a bad mood because of what happened last night, but Zhong Xilu was normal. Seeing Bai Yang's wet appearance, he just handed over two pieces of paper with disdain:

"You're already this old, don't you know how to find a classmate to keep you company?"

"You don't understand." Bai Yang wiped it casually, "A man should face the wind and rain."

"Wait until you catch a cold before facing the needle, right?" Zhong Xilu said unhappily.

"I grew up taking Chinese medicine, and I am in very good health." Bai Yang was telling the truth. His family was relatively poor, and they seldom went to the hospital. They lived in the village, and whenever they had any minor illness, they would go to an old Chinese doctor to get Chinese medicine.

Even when cooking, my mother likes to add some Panax notoginseng and the like. I don’t know if it helps, but Bai Yang has never been sick since he was a child.

"Then stay away from me. I don't want to get wet by you." Zhong Xilu reached into the desk and handed over a bulging plastic bag: "Here you go."

"Wow!" Bai Yang took it, it was warm and soft.

It’s the meat buns from the old shop outside the school.

"Squad leader, are you so proactive today?" Bai Yang couldn't wait to untie the plastic bag, "Four more!"

"Didn't you say last time that two weren't enough?"

"The squad leader is so thoughtful." Bai Yang took a bite with a smile. Under the soft dough, the juicy meat filling immediately bloomed in his mouth.

"As the saying goes, no reward without merit." Bai Yang asked vaguely: "Tell me, do you want to ask for something?"

"Eat yours." Zhong Xilu rolled her eyes: "I just saw it on the way, so I just brought some for you."

"Just think of it as a benefit for your deskmate."

"That's great." Bai Yang said as if he was relieved. "I almost thought our friendship had gone sour and Comrade Xiao Zhong was planning something bad to me."

"Get out!" Zhong Xilu's face turned pale and she avoided his gaze.

Seeing her reaction, Bai Yang froze for a moment, but soon recovered and changed the subject, "Your brother wasn't angry last night, was he?"

"How could he be angry when he is so heartless?"

Zhong Xilu really wanted to ask the other party, what if the friendship deteriorated?
But she was a sensitive person, and even if Bai Yang did not change the topic deliberately, she could still feel the other party's subtle sense of propriety.

Zhong Xilu recalled that day at the KTV, when the other party said that he didn't have anyone he liked at the moment.

Obviously, this includes myself.

This made Zhong Xilu feel a little frustrated, just a little bit. Zhong Xilu never felt that everyone had to like him. The admiration of his peers was only based on his appearance, and Bai Yang——

He is different.

Zhong Xilu was not in a hurry. Although it was the first time she confirmed that she liked a boy and the first time she felt the instinctive and urgent urge to express her feelings, she was definitely not a shy person. She had enough courage to show her feelings boldly and did not care about what others thought.

However, she also knew that a blind charge would often go against the trend.

"I noticed recently that you have been reading junior high school tutorial books in class?" Zhong Xilu asked, restraining his emotions.

"Reviewing the old helps you learn new things." Bai Yang said with a smile, "I'm not as smart as the class monitor. If I want to get good grades, I have to work hard."

The junior high school content was not complicated for Bai Yang, and even if he studied on his own, he made rapid progress.

"Do you want me to help you with your tutoring?" Zhong Xilu asked. "If you need the monitor's help, I will definitely not be polite."

Zhong Xilu said hesitantly, "I always chat with you during class. Will it affect you?"

"You are underestimating yourself, aren't you?" Bai Yang said seriously, "When studying, it is very important to maintain a good mood. And what could be more pleasant than chatting with a very beautiful girl?"

"Comrade Xiao Zhong, please keep going!"

Zhong Xilu couldn't help but laugh, revealing two dimples: "You are good at talking!"

"I've downloaded the movie, let's watch it together later."

Bai Yang was stunned: "What movie?"

"Brokeback Mountain." Zhong Xilu shook his phone: "Didn't you say you wanted to watch it last night?"

Bai Yang: "I don't really want to watch it."

"It's too late to regret now." Zhong Xilu laughed maliciously: "Because of Xiaobai's criticism of me last night, I have deeply reflected on my narrow-minded thinking and changed my ways. I decided to respect Xiaobai's aesthetics and orientation in this regard."

"By the way, if you're not satisfied with me, I can ask my brother to watch it with you."

It turns out you were waiting for me here!

Thinking of watching Brokeback Mountain with Lu Chaoxi's face, Bai Yang couldn't help but shudder.

"Satisfied! Of course I am satisfied! There's no need to trouble your brother. He's in his third year of high school and is very busy."

"Oh, he should be admitted. He has a lot of free time." Zhong Xilu did not let Bai Yang go.

Bai Yang awkwardly changed the subject, "Which university do you plan to attend, Senior Lu?"

"National University of Defense Technology." Zhong Xilu explained: "My family thought it was not suitable and wanted him to study finance in Beijing, but he is a rebellious person and insists on doing things his own way."

"People want to pursue what they lack."

Bai Yang did not agree. Although, when he thought of Lu Chaoxi's image, his painting style was indeed somewhat different from that of a university like the National University of Defense Technology, this was someone else's family affair and it would be presumptuous to say too much.

The morning self-study ended quietly with the two chatting. Zhong Xilu, as the class monitor, was called to the office by Ye Guodong. He had already eaten breakfast and it was a rainy day. Bai Yang didn't want to move either, so he lay on the desk with his eyes closed to rest.

The sound of gentle rain, the sound of diligent classmates reading, and the noise of boys and girls playing came into my ears, and everything seemed very vivid.

"Bai Yang must be chasing Zhong Xilu, right?"

Someone in the back of the classroom was gossiping in a low voice, and when it came to himself, Bai Yang's attention was unconsciously drawn to that.

"Of course, otherwise why would senior Lu Chaoxi come to see him last night?"

"I heard there was a fight?"

"I don't know, but it must be a very ugly thing. After all, no one can stand being poached."

"That's right. This kind of thing would be the same for anyone. Moreover, if it was just Bai Yang trying to poach someone, it would be fine. But didn't you notice that Zhong Xilu seems to treat Bai Yang a little differently?"

"Anyone with eyes can see that, right? These two people are almost always together in the classroom, as if they are alone."

"Zhong Xilu is pretty good, he gets along well with everyone, but Bai Yang seems very cold."

Hearing this, Bai Yang was stunned for a moment.

Me? Aloof?
