Forever No.1

Changing room

"Damn it! You actually made me lose face in front of so many people! It hurts───"

Zhou Shuyi opened the locker and wanted to get back the necklace and personal belongings in the locker, but because of too much force, he was hit in the face by the door of the locker, and he covered his hurt face on the spot and cursed.

Fang Zhengwen and Liu Bingwei, who followed into the locker room, thought that their friends who were strong and self-respecting were sad because they lost the game, so they helped Zhou Shuyi to sit on the bench in front of the locker.

"It's good that people are fine, don't be sad."

Liu Bingwei followed Fang Zhengwen's words and comforted: "That is to say, falling into the swimming pool is such a stupid thing, who hasn't fallen ten or twenty times who is learning to swim? Besides, think about the good, you fall like this, and you fall completely." The whole world knows you, and you have become a campus celebrity!"

"It's that damned Gao Shide who made me lose face in front of so many people."

Especially for causing him to embarrass himself in front of the girl he had a crush on, he will definitely pay back this debt severely.Zhou Shuyi swore secretly in his heart, suddenly remembered a very important matter, so he turned around

He raised his head, squinted his eyes and stared at his best friend sitting beside him.

"Why didn't you tell me that Gao also came to participate in the competition?"

Liu Bingwei's heart skipped a beat when he was stared at sharply. He scratched the back of his head and said guiltily, "I thought... it was just the same name and surname..."

As the president of the swimming club and the host of the "Freshman Joining the Club Inheritance PK Tournament", although he had read the list of players before the competition, he never thought that Gao Shide, who was afraid of water and landlubbed, would sign up for the competition as a senior The swimming club's welcome competition.

"Forget it, we have known each other for so long, we are all old friends..."

Fang Zhengwen, who was trying to smooth things over, was interrupted by another person before he could finish speaking.

"Who is his old friend? Since the fifth grade of elementary school, that guy has been lingering around me, from elementary school to junior high school? From junior high school to high school, I wanted to say that I can finally get rid of him after being admitted to a different school That annoying guy, I didn't expect him to transfer to our school in his sophomore year. Shit! I endured him until my senior year, if I let him go this time, I'm a fucking plastic."

The more Zhou Shuyi spoke, the more angry he became, and the volume of his speech was so loud that everyone in the locker room could hear it.As a best friend, Liu Bingwei was the first to jump out to support, patted his chest and said: "That's right, I can't let him look down on me, how do I want to punish him? Count me in!"

"Brothers!"

Zhou Shuyi tightly held Liu Bingwei's hand on his chest, and the latter secretly rejoiced at his held hand, and the two who decided to make a big fight looked at each other's face with evil smiles.

"Ugh."

On the side, Fang Zhengwen looked worriedly at the two people who had reached an agreement, and sighed heavily.

So, in the next few weeks, various strange things happened around Gao Shide one after another.

The hair dryer that was intended to be used was poured with talcum powder, so that the face of the person who turned it on was sprayed with white powder; or the soda that the school girl invited him to drink after the basketball game was shaken vigorously, and the carbonated drink was released as soon as the bottle cap was twisted. Big eruption.

It's just like someone is born with shit luck, walking into a tree and driving into a telephone pole, Gao Shide is just the opposite, whether it's a hair dryer filled with talcum powder, or a shaken soda, he escapes all, and the victims are all The classmates in the department around him.

"Fuck! It's a bomb!"

Shi Zheyu, who was also in the fourth grade of the Department of Economics and Engineering, stared at the plastic bottle sprayed with sugar water all over his body, and was dumbfounded on the spot.

Gao Shide tore open the outer package of the soda, and saw the word "idiot" written on the bottle with a black marker pen, and just raised his head, he saw Zhou Shuyi who was talking to another person in the stand area on the second floor.

"Are you possessed by Conan the God of Death in Tokyo, or you are stuck in Yin wherever you go, otherwise strange things will happen wherever you go?"

The innocent victims were chanting to their friends while wiping the carbonated drinks that wet their shirts with a towel.

"Have it?"

"Otherwise, you have offended someone, and someone wants to find fault with you."

"yes……"

He responded absently, but his eyes fell on Zhou Shuyi who was standing in the stands on the second floor.

Of course he knew whose masterpiece the recent "weird incident" was, but he didn't want to expose it. As long as he could make himself exist in that person's eyes, he would be willing to be punished.

Gao Shide curled his mouth and smiled towards the grandstand area on the second floor. The instigator guiltily looked away and pretended to talk to Liu Bingwei next to him.

However, the smiling face just now disappeared the moment he saw Liu Bingwei put his hand on Zhou Shuyi's shoulder...

***

"Tsk, that guy's luck is too good."

In the classroom of the Department of Finance, Zhou Shuyi sat in the last row, with his legs crossed on the desk, habitually touching the necklace pendant hanging on his chest, and muttering to himself.

Originally, I planned to use my mobile phone to take pictures of Gao Shide's embarrassment, but I didn't expect that the whole person plan came down several times, and all the people around Gao Shide were involved.

Fang Zhengwen held the chalk and looked at Liu Bingwei: "Hey! Are there any tricks that haven't been used?"

The blackboard not only reads "100 million ways to punish Gao Shide" in big fonts, but also lists all kinds of strange and weird ways to punish people, such as cockroach dumplings? Viagra fried rice? Shoes for coffee? Kettle for chalk Ashes? Waxing? Needles? Wasabi puffs? Bolognese sundaes?

"Should I..." Liu Bingwei put down his chalk and walked towards the mastermind of the murder plan, lowered his voice and suggested mysteriously: "Find gangsters to beat him up?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Shuyi complained, "Are you okay? You're a law student, and you came up with such a bad move."

Fang Zhengwen also threw down the chalk and walked to the back of the classroom, gently persuading: "Otherwise, forget it, anyway, I'm already a senior, and I'll graduate if I bear with it."

The person who was persuaded was very disapproving, and raised his chin to retort: ​​"It is because he is about to graduate that he should be punished, so as to leave a deep graduation commemoration for his college life."

Fang Zhengwen sighed helplessly, and said: "You said the same thing when you were in the sixth grade of elementary school, but you fell into a tree hole yourself, and it was Gao Shide who passed by and rescued you. When was it in the third year of elementary school? It was also in the third year of high school. The second time you said that you want to leave a memorial, you will be the one who suffers in the end.”

This sentence is like stepping on the cat's tail, making the already proud kitten blow up on the spot.

"What do you mean? Think I'll lose to him forever?"

"I mean you are all adults, you can have a good time if you have something to say..."

Before Fang Zhengwen could finish his words, he was interrupted by the other party. Zhou Shuyi was so angry that he grabbed his backpack and stood up, swearing harsh words at the other two in the classroom.

"I just want to kill him, no one can stop me."

"Zhou Shuyi!"

Fang Zhengwen called his friend's name, trying to stop the impulsive person, Liu Bingwei who was standing aside shrugged his shoulders and planned to leave with Zhou Shuyi, but just as he got up, he was yelled back by the angry person.

"Don't follow me."

"Oh."

Liu Bingwei had no choice but to touch his nose and sit back on the table, watching the figure rushing out of the classroom disappear from sight.

"It's 21 years old, and still so self-willed."

Fang Zhengwen couldn't help sighing as he looked at the blackboard full of plans for the whole person.

"It's 21 years old, and it's still so cute."

The other person looked at the door where someone was leaving like a fanboy, showing a doting smile.

***

next day

In a classroom in a corner of the campus, there is a black grand piano.

Although the Steinway piano donated by the alumni has traces of time, the school invites professional tuners and repairers to maintain and tune it every year. Therefore, even though it has been here for many years, the sound is still full and sensitive. A treble can also have a good resonance.

Zhou Shuyi stepped on the pedals at the bottom of the piano with the tip of his shoes, and matched the notes played by the 88 keys to control the melody to be more continuous or softer.Under the upturned piano cover, the hammers hit the strings in sequence, and the melody flowed. The person who played the piano also closed his eyes, swayed his body and hummed the tune.

Completely different from the previous impulsive and irritable, the boy sitting in front of the piano is like a refined literary youth, intoxicated by the smooth sound of the piano.

Outside the classroom, Gao Shide stood on the grass outside the piano room through the window, listening to the sound of the piano in the room, and watching the people who played the piano.

Tranquil? Graceful? Soothing...

Until the hammer strikes the last note, until the people standing outside the window can't help applauding and admiring.

"BRAVO!"

"..."

The people who were immersed in the music turned their heads in surprise, looking at their deadly enemy who had been standing outside since no one knew when.

"Why don't you go on? You play beautifully."

"Do you have to play if you want to hear me? Who are you?"

He had never played his own composition, which he had never heard before, but was heard by the person he hated the most. Zhou Shuyi angrily choked on the person who jumped over the window frame and jumped into the classroom.

Gao Shide walked towards the other party slowly, looked sideways at Zhou Shuyi's face, and said, "It was you who made those pranks before!"

"What prank? I don't understand what you are saying."

The man with a height of [-] bent down and put himself close to Zhou Shuyi, sniffed his left neck, and said, "The smell of talcum powder."

The guilty person changed his face on the spot, pushed away those who were too close, and raised his neck to retort: ​​"Listen to you, I have already thrown the talcum powder in-"

As soon as Zhou Shuyi finished speaking, he saw the expression "I knew it" on the other party's face, and he realized that he had accidentally slipped his mouth, so he closed his mouth in annoyance.

"What did you lose?"

The tone of knowingly asking made the angry person who didn't know how to justify stand up from the chair, glared at Gao Shide angrily, and left the classroom where the piano was placed with fiery steps.

"Zhou Shuyi..."

Gao Shide, who stayed in the classroom, dared not let go of his true feelings until the back of the other person was completely out of his sight, and softly called his name that was treasured in his heart.

***

"Damn it, it really is a sticky candy that can't be shaken off, you can bump into that guy no matter where you go."

Zhou Shuyi walked around the campus with a stinky face, intending to take a few laps in the swimming pool to express his unhappiness, when he suddenly saw two familiar figures from the back in front of him, so he followed up, trying to sneak up on them from behind, but unexpectedly heard the two dialogue.

"Fang Zhengwen, do you hate me?"

In the corridor of the school building, a person stopped, turned to look at the person who had been walking behind her, and asked.

"how is this possible?"

Fang Zhengwen stopped and looked at each other in a daze. Jiang Yuxin looked at the boy who was two years younger than herself. With a straightforward personality, she didn't want to be so ambiguous anymore. She insisted on asking whether she was a friend or a couple today. No, so he took a breath and summoned up his courage, and said to Fang Zhengwen.

"I like you, if you don't hate me, let's be together!" "...!!"

Hearing the sudden confession, looking at the girl he had been secretly fond of, he hesitated.

Standing behind the two, Zhou Shuyi listened to the unexpected conversation, reached out to hold the pendant hanging on his chest, bit his lip and had a sore nose.

It turned out that the person he had a crush on liked another person.

After being hit, he just wanted to get out of here quickly, so he retreated quietly, but accidentally dropped the mobile phone in his palm to the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Shu Yi? Why are you here?"

Jiang Yuxin and Fang Zhengwen both turned their heads and looked at their childhood playmate standing behind them.

Facing the girl's question, Zhou Shuyi showed embarrassment and walked over, hooked Fang Zhengwen's shoulder and pretended to be generous and said, "Quickly promise Yuxin, if you don't want her, I don't think anyone would dare to want this man-in-law. In this way, not only will the childhood sweethearts get closer to each other, but they will also be able to stay in the fields of outsiders, remember to send me a wedding invitation when they get married, and I will be his godfather for the child born in the future, that's the deal."

"Shu Yi..."

Looking at his friend, Fang Zhengwen vaguely felt that Zhou Shuyi also liked Yuxin, but the embarrassment on his face confirmed his guess.The hesitation just now was also because he was worried about Zhou Shuyi's mood, so he didn't know how to answer Jiang Yuxin's confession.

"Don't look at me so affectionately, you have to look at your girlfriend. Alright, I will retire as a light bulb, and I won't disturb your two-person world."

Zhou Shuyi pinched Fang Zhengwen's cheeks with both hands, forcing him to shift his gaze to Jiang Yuxin, then patted him on the shoulder, and quickly ran away from the embarrassing place.

Vision blurred by tears, watching the world change from color to black and white like a silent film, passing through familiar classrooms and corridors, ignoring the eyes projected on him from all around, throwing off his backpack and running wildly.

"What are you doing? It's dangerous to run on the stairs!"

Shi Zheyu, who was almost knocked down from the second floor to the third floor, yelled at the person rushing downstairs from beside him.The other person walking behind saw the tears on Zhou Shuyi's face when he passed by, so he turned around and chased after him without even thinking about it.

"Shide?"

Shi Zheyu grabbed Gao Shide's arm, surprised by his reaction, but the other party grabbed his wrist and pulled away to stop him.

"I have something to do suddenly, you go to the classroom first."

"High───"

The hand that was pulled away fell back weakly to the side, and the eyes that had quietly stopped on the other party since the sophomore year, looked at the back that was getting further and further away from him, showing a hurt expression.

***

swimming pool

"Why Zhengwen? Why didn't you choose me? Am I not good? Idiot Zhengwen? Idiot Yuxin, both of them are idiots! It made me like you for so long..."

Sitting on the steps by the pool, Zhou Shuyi tore off the lucky necklace that was always tied around his neck──the necklace Jiang Yuxin gave him──holding it in his hand and yelling at the empty swimming pool.

Originally, I was looking forward to becoming the enviable campus couple with the girl I have been in love with for many years, but I ran into the scene where she confessed to the other party.His first love, which had failed before it even started, made him sadly run away from the scene and rush into the empty swimming pool.

"Idiot! All are idiots!"

Zhou Shuyi stood up, tears kept sliding down his cheeks, walked to the pool and jumped into the water.

Whoa!

The sound of splashing water echoed in the empty hall, and the damp space smelled of chlorine.

Here, he can cry as much as he wants, because no matter how many tears he shed, they will melt into the water of the swimming pool; no matter how ugly his crying is, there is only one swimming pool, and his misery will not be seen by others.

Let go of the fingers holding the necklace, watching the necklace slowly sink to the bottom of the pool...

It was a necklace he cherished very much, and he would only take it off and put it in the locker during the game.

But now the girl who gave him the necklace has someone who is more qualified to cherish her than himself, so should he also let go of this emotion?Like letting go of a necklace you once held tightly in your hand?

Suddenly, a powerful current rushed towards him.

Zhou Shuyi turned his head in surprise, unexpectedly saw Gao Shide who was swimming towards him quickly, and even pulled his arm angrily, trying to forcefully drag him away from the bottom of the pool.

The first reaction was naturally to be upset, so no matter how much Gao Shide pulled, he just wanted to kick his legs and swim to the other side. The lower back pulls the person toward you.

In fact, he has been following this person since he left the piano room, watching him loathe him? Watching him watch Jiang Yuxin's confession to Fang Zhengwen? Also watching his sad tears...

So with all his strength, he pulled Zhou Shuyi towards him, and kissed his lips forcefully.

"..."

"..."

Under the surface of the water, one stared with frightened eyes, while the other calmly kicked his legs to the bottom of the pool, using the reaction force and the buoyancy of the water to bring the person sinking at the bottom of the pool to the surface.

***

"Zhou Shuyi, are you sick?"

"You are sick, why kiss me?"

The two who had just climbed to the edge of the swimming pool and kept panting with their mouths open, choked each other unceremoniously as soon as they opened their mouths.

"Who told you not to die?"

"It's none of your business if I don't come up!"

Zhou Shuyi kept wiping the lips kissed by the other party with his arm, Gao Shide frowned on his disgusted expression and movements.

"You like Jiang Yuxin so much? You like her so much that you feel so sad when you see her confessing to Fang Zhengwen that you don't even want your life?"

Gao Shide spoke with a tone of indifference that Zhou Shuyi had never heard before, but the same words had completely different meanings in the other party's ears.

"Wait, how do you know that Yuxin and Zhengwen..."

The picture of the confession suddenly flashed in my mind, and I instantly understood that this guy had been following me since the piano room, and seeing him in the most embarrassing appearance, I suddenly became angry and cursed.

"Damn! You spy on me!"

"I-"

After Gao Shide said a word, he stopped defending himself.

However, this reaction was misinterpreted by another person again, thinking that the other party's tailing was trying to catch him, so as to "revenge" his previous prank, so he pointed at the exit of the swimming pool and yelled at Gao Shide.

"Yes, I admit that I did the previous prank. You want to catch me and see my jokes because of this, don't you? Now that you have seen it, are you satisfied? If you are satisfied, get out of here!"

"If you're sad, don't force yourself..."

"Get out! Don't force me to beat you!"

The right hand pointing to the exit is clenched into a fist, threatening with anger.

"..."

Gao Shide looked at the stubborn man worriedly, stopped talking, turned around and left silently.

By the swimming pool that smelled of chlorine, Zhou Shuyi sat on the cold tiled floor, staring at the blue water in a daze, and talking to himself sadly.

"What lucky necklace, not at all... not lucky..."

However, Zhou Shuyi didn't know that after he walked out of the swimming pool in a calm mood, the people who had already left came to the pool from the entrance on the other side, jumped into the pool to pick up the necklace that was left at the bottom of the pool, and then drenched He walked into the locker room of the swimming club without hesitation, stopped in front of Zhou Shuyi's special iron cabinet, and hung the necklace on the handle of the iron cabinet.
