Chapter 162 Lao Yuan, what does it feel like to hold hands?
When dragging Shen Yuan out, Yang Ze called Sun Xiansheng and Yang Shuai to join him.

After all, Shen Yuan is quite strong, and it would be difficult for Yang Ze and Chen Mingyu alone to subdue him.

"Speak! Don't let me hear you say that you and Li Zhi have no relationship, or that you and Li Zhi were just classmates in kindergarten, elementary school, or middle school!" Yang Ze roared angrily, pressing Shen Yuan firmly against the corridor railing.

"If you're not honest, you'll soon wish you were stabbed in the back!" Yang Ze's voice grew lower and lower, revealing a hint of threat.

Seeing this, Chen Mingyu, who was standing to the side, curled up a mocking smile and added sarcastically, "And it's not even a knife!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan's face turned even paler, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead.

At this moment, Sun Xiansheng, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke up. He had a kind smile on his face and his tone was relatively gentle: "Yuan, to be honest, I will still stand by your side. Just consider it as passing on some dating experience to the brothers."

Yang Shuai nodded, his eyes showing only a hint of longing for love.

"I said, I said!"

Shen Yuan faced the second-year high school building and gave in.

Indeed, sometimes people would rather be stabbed in the back than have a knife stabbed in the back.

The feeling of my brother's sweat dripping onto my back was really awful.

Hearing Shen Yuan's voice of submission, Yang Ze's lips curled into a cold smile. He snorted and said, "Speak quickly! If you dare to hesitate even a little and miss this golden opportunity, see how I deal with you!"

Shen Yuan quickly replied, "We...we held hands!"

Yang Ze frowned and pressed, "Just how far has it progressed?"

Shen Yuan honestly replied, "Li Zhi and I only held hands! That's all. If there were anything else, I would definitely have walked into the classroom with her today, believe it or not."

"Just a moment?" Yang Ze seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the answer, asking with a suspicious look on his face.

Shen Yuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Less than two minutes, I guess."

Actually, he himself didn't pay attention to how long they held hands that day.

He himself didn't know, so Yang Ze and the others had even less to do with it.

However, this brief hand-holding of less than two minutes was enough to break the defenses of Yang Ze and his group of silly kids.

"Ah! This is betrayal!" Yang Ze exclaimed.

"Laoyuan, your first time holding hands is gone! You're no longer pure!"

Sun Xiansheng seemed to have suffered a huge blow and cried out in anguish, "Waaah, I also want to hold hands with a girl!"

Seeing this, Yang Shuai suddenly reached out his hand to Sun Xiansheng and said shyly, "Teacher Monkey, if you don't mind, I can let you hold my hand. Although I'm missing a stroke on my chromosome, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Get out of here! Get the dead Southern Copper away from here!" Sun Xiansheng said with immediate disgust.

"No, I meant I've held hands with someone before, so you can experience it for yourself."

No sooner had Yang Shuai finished speaking than Sun Xiansheng pressed him against the railing as well.

"die!"

As Sun Xiansheng struck him, Yang Shuai let out a painful cry.

"Oh!"

"grass!"

Yang Shuai's miserable state terrified Shen Yuan, who desperately tried to break free from Yang Ze's grasp.

Just as Shen Yuan was struggling, a figure suddenly appeared on the third-floor staircase.

Upon seeing this scene, Zhou Shaojie rushed forward without hesitation.

"Eat my meat, egg, scallion, and chicken!" Zhou Shaojie shouted, charging straight at Yang Ze and Shen Yuan like a cannonball.

"Holy crap!" Yang Ze and Shen Yuan were caught off guard by the sudden attack, and the railings rattled under the violent impact.

The railing stacking game was severely damaged, and Shen Yuan and Yang Ze turned to look at A-Jie, who was looking excited.

The next second, A-Jie felt a dizzying sensation, and then a door appeared in front of him.

"Hey! No!"

After a long string of abbas, A-Jie groaned and leaned against the railing, listening to the conversation between the others and Shen Yuan.

"Laoyuan, what does it feel like to hold hands?"

Shen Yuan slowly raised his head, gazing at the sky as if recalling that heart-stirring moment, and then replied in a deep and gentle tone, "It's like... holding the whole world in my hands."

His voice wasn't loud, but it echoed in the air, as if it possessed a kind of magic, allowing those around him to feel the emotions deep within his heart.

"hiss--"

The group of male high school students who had never held hands before gasped in unison. They stared wide-eyed at Shen Yuan, their faces filled with astonishment, seemingly unable to comprehend this feeling.

However, Yang Shuai was very puzzled by Shen Yuan's answer. He scratched his head and asked blankly, "Huh? Really?"

His words had barely left his lips when, as if a fuse had been lit, they caused an uproar among those around him.

"Shut up!" Sun Xiansheng shouted angrily, "You don't understand at all! You just don't love enough!"

Yang Shuai was startled by the sudden accusation. He shrank back somewhat, unsure of what to do, and weakly explained, "But, she really had the feel for it when she cosplayed..."

"Go to hell!" Before he could finish speaking, he was shouted at by the people around him.

What's wrong with an internet-addicted teenager? He simply shared his emotions with Tifa, Alice, Mai Shiranui, Ada Wong, and so on.

After Yang Shuai was forcibly muted, Chen Mingyu asked again, "Yuan, are you nervous?"

Shen Yuan nodded, a hint of shyness on her face, and said softly, "I'm very nervous. I'm afraid of being rejected."

"Ugh!" Yang Shuai seemed to want to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Sun Xiansheng quickly covered it.

"So, you took the initiative, and then Li Zhi agreed to shake your hand." Yang Ze looked at Shen Yuan, a hint of envy flashing in his eyes. "If we're not buddies, why should we?"

Yang Ze complained with a bitter and resentful look, "It's so unfair! You all have such lovely childhood sweethearts, but what about me? I only have this idiot A-Jie by my side!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Shaojie retorted with displeasure, "Hey, hey, hey, I haven't even complained about you yet, and you're already talking about me! I treat you like a good brother, how can you say that about me?"

Seeing this, Yang Ze rolled his eyes at Zhou Shaojie and said, "Look at us here. Lao Yuan has Li Zhi, and Ashuai has the little girl next door. Of the remaining four, at least you and Ai Muyu have a girl as your deskmate. Only Teacher Hou and I are the most pitiful!"

After saying that, Yang Ze took a step forward and hugged Sun Xiansheng tightly: "Teacher Monkey, we are really all alone!"

Sun Xiansheng excitedly hugged Yang Ze back.

Just then, Shen Yuan suddenly blurted out, "Why don't you two just get married?"

Before he finished speaking, Yang Ze and Sun Xiansheng seemed to be electrocuted, immediately letting go of each other and quickly separating.

Such a superficial relationship.

Before Shen Yuan could express his feelings, Chen Mingyu asked, "Yuan, let me ask you another question."

After Shen Yuan nodded, Chen Mingyu asked seriously, "Do you like Li Zhi?"

Shen Yuan looked at Chen Mingyu and nodded.

"Then why not just go after her? With the feelings between you two, you could win her over quickly, right?" Chen Mingyu asked, puzzled.

Shen Yuan shook his head: "We're in our final year of high school, our main task is studying!"

After saying that, Shen Yuan turned and walked towards the classroom.

"I'm going to study."

Yang Ze and the others did not stop Shen Yuan; they simply watched him turn around and return to the classroom.

As Shen Yuan's figure disappeared from sight, Chen Mingyu frowned deeply and asked with a look of suspicion, "What exactly does he mean by this?"

"Tell me, strategist."

Sun Xiansheng released Yang Shuai and said, "I think maybe Shen Yuan is just shy and embarrassed to agree to us directly. Or maybe, his saying he wants to study is just an excuse to brush us off."

However, at that moment, Zhou Shaojie's voice suddenly rang out among them.

"not like this."

Ah Jie's gaze was fixed on the back door of the classroom as he slowly spoke, "You've all misunderstood. Shen Yuan's meaning is actually very simple and clear. When he said 'we,' he was actually referring to both him and Li Zhi."

Ah Jie slowly leaned against the railing, his eyes somewhat unfocused, and then explained:
"Think about it, Li Zhi can score 690 points, while Shen Yuan can only score 650 points. In this situation, would you rather your girlfriend lower her score to be with you, or would you rather work hard to catch up with her?"

Yang Ze listened to A-Jie's words, pursed his lips slightly, and remained silent for a moment before saying, "Of course I hope I can make it, but... 650 points might still be something I can work on, but 690 points..."

His words came to an abrupt halt, clearly indicating that he felt the goal was rather unattainable.

"Damn, if Lao Yuan can really reach 690 points, then I think all those sugary fanfics from the Fanfiction Association are totally weak!"

Ah-Jie said, "What kind of liking can make someone break through the upper limit of IQ? Anyway, it's impossible to read those sugary articles."

After saying that, A-Jie got up and walked towards the classroom.

"Class is about to begin."

Hearing A-Jie's words, everyone returned to the classroom. Although A-Jie hadn't been there on time for a long time, the words "Class is about to start" carried a great deal of authority when spoken by him.

Upon returning to his seat, the moment A-Jie saw Li Zhi, the thought of strangling Shen Yuan resurfaced.

Of course, that's what A-Jie did too.

"You idiot Shen Yuan, die!"

Less than a second after he finished speaking, A-Jie was subdued by Shen Yuan.

Ah Jie chuckled awkwardly, "Brother, give me a break. You're still my occasional godfather, after all."

Shen Yuan rolled his eyes at A-Jie.

During tonight's evening self-study period, Mr. Zhou didn't come to stroll around; instead, the physics teacher did.

The physics teacher of Class 15 is also the homeroom teacher of Class 14. When he is inspecting his own class, he also takes the opportunity to inspect Mr. Zhou's class.

They were all just incidental things.

"Tsk, what's Old Liu doing here?"

"Old Zhou must have something to do."

Soon, someone guessed that the homeroom teacher was not in the office.

When our homeroom teacher isn't around, we really become the noisiest people in the whole hallway.

"Quick, quick! Let me copy your homework! After I'm done, I'll log in and clean up the smart stones!"

"Take it, take it. What about yours? I'll copy yours."

Before he could finish speaking, the class monitor's voice rang out from the podium: "Quiet down, everyone!"

Upon hearing the voice of class monitor Xu Ziqiong, everyone in class shrank back.

If we were to pick two people from Class 15 who could shut people up the most, the first would definitely be Li Zhi, and the second would definitely be the class monitor, Xu Ziqiong.

The sisters exude an aura of righteousness that inspires awe and makes one hesitant to disobey them.

As for fearing Li Zhi, it's probably because he's developed psychological trauma from the pressure.

The first period of evening self-study went by quickly. Shen Yuan did some practice problems and then heard the bell ring.

Even after class ended, Shen Yuan showed no intention of stopping writing and continued working on his test paper.

On the other side, Li Zhi stopped.

The pretty girl stretched lazily, and then began to watch Shen Yuan do his homework.

He Zhiyu had originally intended to turn around and chat for a while, but upon seeing Li Zhi, she immediately abandoned the idea.

Seeing Li Zhi's gaze, the young author knew that something must have happened between the two of them.

Thinking of this, He Zhiyu couldn't help but recall the time when Yang Ze and the others took Shen Yuan out for questioning.

The young author quickly wrote a note to his deskmate, Chen Mingyu.

This was the first time Chen Mingyu had ever seen someone pass notes after class.

However, Chen Mingyu understood after opening He Zhiyu's note.

This definitely needs to be done by passing a note.

You can't exactly say that in front of someone you grew up with.

Chen Mingyu quickly wrote the words "holding hands" and then added the time.

Upon seeing the words "holding hands," He Zhiyu felt an electric current surge from her spine to the top of her head.

The young author immediately imagined Li Zhi and Shen Yuan holding hands tightly.

Childhood sweethearts held hands on the way home, then held hands at home, and held hands in the bedroom...

I can't think about it anymore, I absolutely can't continue thinking about it.

This is absolutely terrible!

But in a moment, He Zhiyu also realized a very serious problem.

That is to say, Shen Yuan and Li Zhi could not have progressed from exchanging glances to holding hands all at once.

Even if they only held hands for a while, who knows how long they actually held hands in private?

You all believed Shen Yuan after he only spoke for two minutes?

madness!

I even felt like they were holding hands all the way to school!
The young author had complete confidence in his own ideas.

So here's the question: how many things between these two are missing that we don't know about?
He Zhiyu sat upright in his seat, burying his head in his pile of books.

"Put your imagination on the line. Peipei said that a qualified writer of sweet romance novels needs to have enough imagination to fill in the gaps in their knowledge and fill in the gaps in their knowledge from the slightest clues!"

The young author quickly began organizing the information he had collected.

He Zhiyu only stopped her daydreaming when she felt the urge to use the restroom after the second evening self-study session ended.

"Pepe, do you need to go to the toilet?"

As soon as He Zhiyu finished speaking, Zhuo Peipei stood up.

As soon as the two stepped out of the classroom, Zhuo Peipei asked, "What intelligence?"

"They held hands."

Just like He Zhiyu, Zhuo Peipei's face immediately showed an incredulous expression upon hearing the news: "Huh?! Really?"

"It's true, but I can't think of anything the two of them could do to develop their relationship."

Based on Li Zhi and Shen Yuan's usual behavior, He Zhiyu and Zhuo Peipei would never have imagined that the "rapid progress" in their relationship would be due to several incidents caused by Shen Yuan touching Li Zhi's feet.

When He Zhiyu and Zhuo Peipei returned from the restroom, they saw a suspicious figure standing at the entrance of Class 15.

Zhuo Peipei immediately stepped forward: "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with? Are you looking for someone?"

The boy who was asked a question by Zhuo Peipei was immediately startled, then took out a cup of milk tea from behind his back and hesitated before speaking.

"Um, senior, could you please give this to Senior Li Zhi for me?"

Before Zhuo Peipei could say anything, He Zhiyu rushed over and shoved the milk tea back at her.

"Give me a damn thing! She already has a boyfriend, why are you still getting involved? How shameless!"

"Ah? Ah!"

Upon hearing He Zhiyu's words, the boy immediately turned and left.

Looking at his retreating figure, He Zhiyu's face was full of dissatisfaction.

"What? You dare to break up the couple I created? You're asking for trouble!"

The young author showed no sign of watching the spectacle; all he could see was his protectiveness towards the couple he was writing about.

Zhuo Peipei looked at He Zhiyu, who was standing to the side in a huff, and hesitated whether to tell her that someone had posted a confession wall for Li Zhi on QQ Space.

Will I be killed?

The president panicked for a moment.

Damn it, I'm deleting that post when I get home today!
He Zhiyu must never find out about this!
However, when He Zhiyu returned to the classroom, Zhuo Peipei knew that things were not going well.

"Zhizhi, a boy just brought you milk tea, but I sent him away."

As soon as He Zhiyu sat down, he tried to curry favor with Li Zhi.

Upon hearing this, a look of confusion appeared on Li Zhi's face.

But the pretty girl still subconsciously thanked He Zhiyu: "Thank you."

Shen Yuan was different; his gaze fell directly on Zhuo Peipei.

Seeing Shen Yuan's serious expression, Zhuo Peipei immediately gave a smirk.

The president quickly gestured that he would delete it when he got home, and Shen Yuan then turned his attention back to the book.

Zhuo Peipei breathed a sigh of relief.

Another day has passed.
