How come you're also my ex-girlfriend?

……

Chapter 34 I Avoid Her Edge?!

The curtains were open, letting in a cool breeze, a welcome respite from the summer evening.

Xu Yan was feeling drowsy.

Don't ask why I still feel sleepy during evening self-study sessions, even though my physical condition has improved and I have skills like perfect sleep.

The question is the unbearable weight of life.

I wonder if performing a freefall at this moment would sober me up a bit.

My consciousness was still a bit hazy, and my stamina bar was about to be depleted.

"..."

Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a small notebook I'd never seen before on my desk. It was definitely not the kind of notebook or workbook the school would give out.

It's small and compact, perfect for quick note-taking, and the cover even features a cute kitten design.

Xu Yan looked out the open window. Who sent me a message by carrier pigeon? An alien!

Looking further ahead, you can see a pair of ears hidden in black hair, the tips of which have quietly turned red.

Oh ~

Xu Yan opened the notebook and found it was still brand new and unused. This time, the codfish burger really put a lot of effort into it.

The first page contains the message she conveyed to herself.

Are you sleepy?

What a strange statement. Could it be that I missed something in time and space during this period, and that he and Wen Xueyu are actually an old married couple?

Where's the king-size bed room? Book it for me!

Wen Xueyu didn't know why she handed over the notebook. She probably found it funny when she secretly turned around and saw Xu Yan resting his chin on his hand, nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice, looking like he was about to fall off at any moment.

But after secretly handing it over, her heart seemed to race every second.

So this is what it's like to secretly pass a notebook while avoiding the whole class's gaze!

Poke.

Just as the girl was lost in thought, immersed in the nervousness of doing 'bad things' for the first time, she felt a touch on her back.

She froze.

Then, he slowly slipped his left hand under his right armpit and gently pinched the edge of the notebook.

The first step was to quickly stuff it into the drawer, then nervously raise my head slightly to look around and see if anyone had noticed what was happening.

Great, the teacher didn't see it, the deskmate didn't see it, and their little tricks seemed to have gone unnoticed by the whole world.

Then, secretly take the notebook to the table, cover it with your arms, and gently open it in the small space.

He squinted his eyes slightly, as if only with the narrowest possible field of vision could he properly protect the information the other party was conveying.

I am angry.

Wen Xueyu: ?

[After so many years of schooling, why is there always someone walking around on the podium during class, constantly talking and disrupting the silence? Occasionally, they even touch the multimedia computer without permission and then scribble on the blackboard! School is supposed to be a place for students to learn, so why does this always happen? This is due to poor school supervision!]

Wen Xueyu: ...

Is it possible that he/she is a teacher?

Seeing what the other person wrote, and recalling her own series of cautious actions just now, she suddenly felt like standing up and reporting to the teacher that she had been daydreaming in class.

All my efforts were in vain.

However, she quickly wrote the next sentence and carefully sent it back.

[Stop joking...Are you so sleepy because you're tired from PE class?]

Hmm? Codburger is quite considerate.

Xu Yan roused himself, wrote a line, and sent it back.

It's alright, it's just that the energy is almost gone and it needs to be recharged.

[Charging? But I don't have a power bank.]

It's okay, you can be my power bank if you want.

Wen Xueyu: ?

The moment she saw this message, the girl almost blushed instantly. She nearly leaned over the table to cover the words, as if afraid someone would see them... not even aliens!

What does this mean? Could it be... he's confessing his feelings?

No...impossible! How could someone confess their feelings so hastily, especially since they've only known each other for a few days? Xu Yan is definitely not such a frivolous person!

Of course, I wouldn't be a casual girl.

Taking a deep breath, the girl, whose ears were burning red, controlled her hand to keep it from trembling and calmly wrote down the next sentence.

I don't understand what you mean...

They secretly passed it back, like hiding a landmine.

This time, Xu Yan returned the answer very quickly, so quickly that Wen Xueyu wanted to deceive herself and not look at it, hiding it in the drawer and waiting ten years to see the answer on it.

But she's seventeen now, an age where she's curious about everything and wants to do it all, but is also capable of bearing the consequences.

It's very simple~ For example, if you say "Go for it!" to me, I'm full of energy.

Hmm? Is that so?

She secretly turned around and saw Xu Yan lying on the desk, like a tired big dog, watching her with a lazy expression and a tender smile.

This made Wen Xueyu instinctively turn around.

My heart skipped a few beats, so I had to take several deep breaths to fill the gap.

Turning back again, she saw Xu Yan, the big dog, sprawled on a pile of books. The girl clenched her fists slightly, her face flushed, and her voice trembled.

"Keep it up..."

Xu Yan clenched his fist at her, his smile radiant.

It was like a big dog waving its paw at its owner.

Xu Yan is so silly, the dog is cute.

Her cheeks were almost completely flushed, and she turned her head and buried her face in the table. Otherwise, she felt her heart was going to jump out of her throat, out of the classroom, into the sky, into the boundless, dazzling Milky Way.

My heart finally calmed down, and the slightly sour taste slowly melted away, turning into a creamy sweetness.

After evening self-study, Xu Yan left like a thunderbolt.

Going downstairs went smoothly, picking up the bike went smoothly, the journey home went smoothly, and even arriving at her doorstep went smoothly. Xu Yan felt that today was a day blessed by God.

It would be even better if Jiang Yiyao could pull off a small accident that caused her to lose her short-term memory.

I returned home satisfied. My mother had already gone to bed, leaving only my father in the living room pretending to watch TV and scroll through his phone.

"I am back."

"The takeout is at the door... Wait, I don't think I ordered takeout."

Xu Yan: ...Have you ever seen a delivery driver with a key just walk into the door?

Xu Yan threw her backpack on the sofa and said irritably, "Why don't you just say I'm a delivery person?"

"Delivering takeout is not as good as ordering takeout."

Old Xu switched off the music player, glanced at Xu Yan, and said, "This is the last piece of advice I'm leaving you. If you ever find yourself in a desperate situation, it might be your final salvation."

Is selling it outside the store the last resort? You're something else.

After entering high school, Xu Yan became increasingly suspicious that Xu Jia'an was not her biological father. Before, when her values ​​were still developing, Xu Jia'an constantly preached big principles and showed great courtesy, as if he was afraid that she would go astray.

When he's almost in high school, Old Deng will stop pretending, right?

Xu Yan smiled and looked at Old Xu, "I think I'm younger than you, stronger than you, and more handsome than you. I'm not content to be your son. What do you think?"

Seeing the signs of an impending upheaval at Xuanwu Gate, Old Xu coughed and changed the subject.

"Ahem, is there no evening self-study session tomorrow, Saturday?"

"correct."

"Then remember to come back early and don't linger outside."

"What's wrong? Is there some kind of psychopathic killer out there lately?"

“There are a lot of dogs being caught outside lately, I’m afraid you’ll get caught.”

Xu Yan: ?

"Alright, alright, no more joking around." Xu Jia'an stood up, stretched, and said, "Come back early for dinner tomorrow. Your mom is very happy to know you moved up a grade and did well on the exam. She'll cook you a big meal."

Xu Yan instantly grasped the key words.

"You? Who else?"

"Yaoyao, it's perfect that you two come back together after school."

Yamei!

Xu Yan's eyes widened. "No, what does my good score have to do with her? Why would I invite her to do this? I don't agree!"

Xu Jia'an looked at the boy strangely, "When did you become so stingy..."

"I'm just a bit possessive of my food."

"Tsk...you didn't do something to upset them, and now you're too scared to face them?"

Holy crap! How did he know?
