fragrant like sunlight

Chapter 1 Your Voice, My Name in Class

The sky in September is still full of sunlight, but the cool breeze through the rustling of the trees announces the end of the hot summer.

In such a weather, in a space of only 60 square meters, it is a pleasure to monopolize the corner by the window.

This is my domain until you approach me without warning.

Ke Shan is like an ordinary science-focused student, always doing something else during liberal arts classes, such as sleeping.He has always been the top three in the class since he entered school, so he can securely occupy the seat in the last row. In the second semester of high school, he was lucky to sit in the group by the window.

In the next English class, the right time and place, he lay down on the table and closed his eyes before the bell rang.Perhaps because of this unique environment, warm sunshine and cool wind, he fell asleep quickly and soundly.

Hearing the sound suddenly, Ke Shan shook his body and opened his eyes, and what came into view was a pair of hands with well-knuckles, and the long fingertips were tapping on his desk.Looking up along the opponent's hand, he saw the face of a strange young man. He didn't sit up straight until he realized that the opponent was wearing a teacher's uniform.

"Hello. Do you know me?"

In addition to good-looking hands, the young teacher also has a nice voice, with a bright timbre and a bit of a cold attitude.

Ke Shan blinked, unable to answer the other party's question.

"It seems that you really slept soundly and didn't hear my self-introduction just now." The young teacher was not angry, but smiled slightly.

The students around laughed, Ke Shan's face became hot, and he scratched his arm in embarrassment.He couldn't help but think that this teacher definitely did it on purpose.

As if to confirm his guess, the young teacher waited for the students to laugh enough before saying: "I am your new English teacher this semester, please teach me a lot. Your name?"

The shame and frustration of being teased kept Ke Shan silent, wanting to resist at least.

The young teacher seemed to have sensed his intentions, stood by the table, and took the initiative to look at the name posted on the corner of Ke Shan's desk.

As he leaned closer, Ke Shan's eyes fell on the obedient black hair on the back of the man's slender neck, and he could vaguely smell the sweet fragrance.

Do Men Use Fruity Scented Shampoos Too?

Accidentally distracted for a moment, I heard that somewhat cold voice read: "Ke Shan."

Many people have called his name, but Ke Shan can be sure that this is the one that left the deepest impression on him.

After class, Ke Shan immediately grabbed Jiang An who was sitting in the front row. "Why didn't anyone tell me to change my English teacher?"

"Did you not watch the class again?" Jiang An turned around and lay down on Ke Shan's desk, "You are finished, the teacher has already remembered you, this class has called you to answer questions by name several times coming?"

"……three times."

"Sorry buddy, I really don't want to laugh, but I can't help it."

Amid Jiang An's big laugh, Ke Shan looked helplessly at the blackboard, the new English teacher's name was still written in chalk on the upper left corner - Pei Jing.

Ke Shan learned about the self-introduction that he missed because of sleeping from his classmates.Pei Jing was only seven or eight years older than them. He was a graduate student studying abroad and started teaching this year.

Ke Shan doesn't like English, and of course other subjects as well.

Whether you like it or not, whether you are interested or not, it seems that you can't change it yourself. You just learn the prescribed content like everyone else.If you want to talk about the difference, it is probably that I am better at science, but I feel that liberal arts are more difficult to deal with.

It's like getting along with people, some people are easy to get in touch with, while others find it difficult.

Both English and Pei Jing seem to be objects that I am not good at dealing with.

In the last class on Friday afternoon, my mind seemed to be far away.

The young English teacher looked at the time, there were still 5 minutes left, so he closed his textbook and leaned against the podium. "Why should we learn English? Who will speak their minds?"

All the students present lowered their heads and did not take the initiative to look into the eyes of the teacher, wishful thinking that they would not be called by name.

"Ke Shan, please answer."

I knew it.Ke Shan secretly complained in his heart.Ever since he was targeted by this new teacher, he has always been the one named.

Ke Shan raised his head and looked at Pei Jing who was diagonal to him.

If my original offense unintentionally offended your pride, then I also have my dignity.

A puff of air was stuck in his chest, and he let out a breath before standing up. "Because this is a rule, there is no need for a reason."

Feeling everyone's surprised gazes, Ke Shan felt refreshed, although he knew that he was just talking nonsense.

"..." Pei Jing stood up straight, and slowly walked towards the corner where the eyes gathered. "That is because of the college entrance examination?"

A few students agreed in a low voice, but Ke Shan glanced at them, but stopped answering.

The silence was maintained until the distance between the two sides was only forty centimeters. The teacher, who was expressionless, looked directly at the student who seemed to be challenging him. "What you said is also one of the reasons, but it would be a pity if it is the only reason. Regardless of work and going abroad, in terms of life alone, English may be the language with the most information and entertainment. Can someone give an example without raising your hand Answer, just say it directly."

The excitement of being liberated with about 1 minute left made everyone less tense, and several students participated in the discussion.

"Can sing English songs to show off."

"Teammates who travel abroad can communicate smoothly when playing games."

"You can follow the SNS of European and American stars."

"You can look up information on foreign websites."

The moment the get out of class bell rang, Pei Jing smiled at Ke Shan. "Yes, it works, and I'd be glad if it gave you a little liking for English."

He was dizzy for a moment, and he didn't know whether it was because of the dazzling sunlight by the window or the brilliance in the other person's eyes, Ke Shan suddenly couldn't look directly at this person who was only one step away from him.

Like it?

Ke Shan looked at the English textbook and shook his head. He still couldn't like this subject, but he felt that it was not as difficult as before.Recently, I have been able to calm down and read some reading materials and listen to some English songs.I won't do anything else during class, and I won't be able to concentrate on it.

After two weeks of training, Ke Shan got used to being called by name in English class, and even subconsciously made eye contact with Pei Jing when he asked a question.

Just like at this moment, Pei Jing came to him after a meeting of eyes. "Ke Shan, please read this conversation."

Ke Shan stood up and picked up the textbook to read aloud.

The undercurrent of competing emotions before seemed to be just an illusion, but now it is more like a tacit understanding.In class, your voice and my name are all traces left on the 60㎡ stage.

After class, Pei Jing assigned an assignment, and the group performed English short plays with a theme of their own choice.

The students gathered around the podium, and the class representative bargained with the teacher, hoping to give more preparation time.Ke Shan, who was on duty that day, went to the back of the podium and wiped the blackboard while listening to them talk.

"Okay, then the teacher will give you three more days, but the short play will have an extra 5 minutes."

"Wow, forget it then."

Ke Shan couldn't help laughing, this English teacher is really cunning, he didn't know how to refuse but let others quit.When turning around after wiping the blackboard, he bumped into Pei Jing who was about to leave. Ke Shan hurriedly removed the eraser which was full of chalk dust, "Mr. Pei, I'm sorry."

"It's okay." Pei Jing patted the white ash on his body.

He was half a head taller than him, and Ke Shan could see that Pei Jing's head was also covered with powder. "There's still a head."

Pei Jing patted his hair casually, raised his head and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Have."

"You help me take a picture."

Eh?Ke Shan froze for a moment.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he gently patted the chalk dust off the teacher's hair, but he forgot that his hands were covered in powder just after wiping the blackboard, so he burst out laughing. "What to do, more and more."

Pei Jing came to his senses, and before laughing out loud, he slightly covered the lower half of his face with his slender fingers, and lowered his head to smile.

Ke Shan finds it amazing that this person is usually a little proud when he smiles, but he is embarrassed when he laughs.

After Pei Jing stopped laughing, he looked up at Ke Shan and said half-jokingly, "On purpose?"

"I forgot."

"Prepare the skit, you will be the first to perform next week. I'm looking forward to it."

"..."

Silent complaints were exchanged for a sly smile, Ke Shan looked at this English teacher who seemed to always like to fight against him, but his mood was surprisingly light.
