Ding Xuerun turned his back to him and wrapped himself in his clothes. His voice sounded calm. He was a little too calm, compared with Lou Cheng: “Lou Cheng, you go out first.”
Lou Cheng said “Oh” twice, subconsciously retreat, and then reacted, it’s not right, Xiao Ding is a man, what’s the point of avoiding suspicion? Isn’t it all three legs?
“Lou Cheng.” Ding Xuerun frowned.
Lou Cheng recovered a little bit. There wasn’t much of a difference between woman and man when looking at him from behind. He was definitely blinded by Ding Xuerun’s white skin at the time, and his heart beat faster.
What’s more, Xiao Ding’s back is really beautiful, thin but not woody, and well-proportioned. The most amazing thing is that he even has moles different from ordinary people. He has a red rose-colored mole. There are only a few of them, but they are firmly holding his eyes.
Lou Cheng respected him, he turned around, and said through the door: “Are you taking a shower? Why don’t you turn on the light?”
“I didn’t found the switch.” Ding Xuerun rustled to put on his clothes, he hasn’t taken a bath yet.
“The switch is underneath, and I kicked it. Didn’t you see the glow on the switch?”
“Didn’t notice it,” Ding Xuerun put on his clothes quickly, “Why did you go to the bathroom downstairs?”
“I’m just going downstairs to drink some water… who knows…” Lou Cheng paused, and immediately thought of something, and said nonchalantly, “Anyway, it’s not like I haven’t seen you naked in our dorm room.”
I haven’t seen it yet.
Not to mention that he lived in the dormitory once a week, and Ding Xuerun changed clothes on his back. Every time he came out of the bath, he comes out in pajamas.
Lou Cheng didn’t take this matter to heart. Ding Xuerun returned to the princess room and calmed down after a while.
He was lying in the dark, staring at the romantic starry sky dome of the princess room.
On the ceiling, there are stars and moons glowing dimly in the night.
Lou Cheng usually wakes up very late in the morning because he never sets the alarm. He hears the bell of the next school ringing and knows that early reading has started, so he woke up slowly, and began to wash.
After going downstairs, Lou Cheng knocked on the door of the princess room. After receiving no response, he twisted the doorknob. Sure enough, there was no one inside, and it was neatly cleaned, just like when no one was here before.
“So heartless.” Lou Cheng cursed in a low voice, “You ran away alone to class without calling me, huh.”
He found his school uniform and put it on. When he was about to go out, he suddenly saw the food on the table.
Lou Cheng thought he has blurred vision, so he took a few serious looks at it before he was sure that it was really a breakfast.
He approached and found that it was a bowl of decent shrimp porridge, a small plate of cold dishes, and a hard-boiled egg.
He doesn’t know how long Ding Xuerun has been gone, but the porridge has lost its temperature.
Lou Cheng noticed the note on the corner of the rice bowl which was written by Ding Xuerun and told him: “I hope you don’t mind if I use your kitchen. I saw that you have ingredients in the refrigerator and make a little breakfast. If it’s cold when you wake up, just heat it in the microwave, heat the porridge for one and a half minutes, and boil the eggs in boiling water for three minutes. I’m going to class.”
There is a sign on the note, which is the word “rùn”. His handwriting is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye, he looks like a scholar when he reads the handwriting.
Lou Cheng was moved a little bit, thinking Xiao Ding was still very good.
After thinking about it, he rummaged around the house to find an unused cell phone. The phone was given by his father, the color of local tyrant gold. At that time his dad called and asked him: “Son, you can customize your phone with a diamond. How many carats of diamonds do you want?”
Lou Cheng refused the diamond customization, but he still got the phone and later he found that it looked similar to the mobile phone “Just 998 yuan! Only 998 yuan!” on TV. It was as ugly as it was.
He vowed to never see this phone again in his life.
Lou Cheng turned on the phone and saw that there was a lot of power left, so he smashed it roughly on the ground twice and made a gap in one corner of the mobile phone, and then he put the newly broken mobile phone into his pocket with satisfaction.
He didn’t get in through the school gate and jumped in from the sidewall. Because he was late every day, he had to register outside the door every time he was late—the school guard remembered him in his freshman year. If you are late too many times, they will contact the headteacher and even deduct the points of Class 4.
Lou Cheng is very self-aware, knowing that Dou Zhiwei’s tolerance for him is because he does not cause serious trouble. If he affects the class and the study of the top students, he will certainly be criticized.
Therefore, he never dated any girls in his class. Of course, this is not like no one attracts his interest, after all, as they say, “distance makes things prettier.” Now. how inconvenient is it being in the same classes? Just three days and we will break up!
It seems that only Xiao Ding can play with him in the class.
Lou Cheng was extremely late today. When he stepped over the wall and entered the school, the second class had not finished yet. Lou Cheng slowly walked through this path that no one would pass. When he walked to the abandoned dormitory, he saw a man and a woman holding hands, hiding under the tree, and quietly kissing.
He walked straightly without squinting, muttering to himself about that man and woman are having an indecent relationship, and how dirty their saliva is.
He walked to the teaching building and lingered at the door of the classroom for a while, and then walked in through the back door when the bell rang after the class is over.
The second class that just ended was a language and literature class, so all the students in the classroom are reciting at the moment, and almost no students go out.
Lou Cheng saw Ding Xuerun holding a Chinese book, and queuing up with the class leader, waiting for others to finish reciting it.
Lou Cheng’s stomach was full in the morning, so he walked over with a smile, walked to him, and bumped him lightly with his shoulder: “Xiao Ding.”
Ding Xuerun turned to look at him: “You are here.”
Lou Cheng lowered his head and hooked his fingers, and said mysteriously: “ Come with me, and I will show you something good.”
Perhaps he was afraid of affecting the recitation of the classmates in front of him, so he suppressed his voice very low and leaned very close, breathing next to him.
Instead of hiding, Ding Xuerun said naturally and calmly: “Then you can show it to me later, I’ll recite a book first.”
Lou Cheng “snorted” and laughed, the low laughter seemed to carry an electric current, which tickled people’s hearts.
Ding Xuerun’s ears moved slightly, and his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
Lou Cheng propped his elbows on his shoulders: “Oh, I can’t see it, you still reciting.”
“…There are so many things you can’t see.”
Lou Cheng raised his eyebrows: “Stop reciting it, what are you reciting? If you can recite it, then I will chop my d*ck and made it into wine for you to drink!” (This is a cuss word)
He just glanced at the book. The text was like a foot-wrapped cloth, and it was longer than his d*ck. It would be strange if Ding Xuerun could recite it!
The person who recited the previous book didn’t know if he heard Lou Cheng’s bold words, and suddenly he got stuck: “Tonight I hear your pipa playing, tonight I hear your…”
He was stuck for several seconds before the class leader took his gaze away from Lou Cheng and looked at the boy who recited the book: “Did you finish reciting it?”
“No…” Before the boy could speak, the class leader ticked him behind his name and then told him to go away. He secretly glanced at Luo Cheng, and said softly: “Okay, next one.”
The next one is naturally Ding Xuerun.
He closed the Chinese book and looked over at the side where Lou Cheng smiled leisurely and he was certain that he could not recite it, and then he said to the class leader: “I’m going to start.”
The class leader hummed a few times, holding the book high, and secretly looking at Lou Cheng while reading the book.
Lou Cheng usually sleeps or absent, and it’s hard to see his face up.
“《Pipa Xing》, Bai Juyi, Xunyang Jiangtou…”
He recites very smoothly.
When he first recited a paragraph or two, Lou Cheng’s expression was still very calm and composed. But when he heard Ding Xuerun speak fast and recite more and more smoothly, he slowly began to get a beat in his heart. He even took out a Chinese book, intending to look at Ding Xuerun’s recitation.
As a result, he flipped through the book for a long time and didn’t know which page, but the class leader saw it and reminded him.
Lou Cheng turned to 《Pipa Xing》. However, he didn’t know where Xiao Ding was reciting. When he saw so many classical Chinese characters, he felt dizzy and wanted to vomit.
He had to pull a long face and said to the class leader: “Listen to him, tell me if he recites the wrong one.”
Listening to Ding Xuerun’s endless reciting, the leisurely smile on Lou Cheng’s face gradually disappeared completely.
Ding Xuerun recited it quickly, and waited until his last word was finished, and said: “I’m done reciting.” Lou Cheng was already stunned.
The class leader gave Ding Xuerun a tick.
She looked at Lou Cheng and asked him softly: “Lou Cheng, you… do you want to recite the book?”
He had a low pressure all over his body: “…I’m hanging on my back.”
Ding Xuerun held the Chinese book in his arms, and calmly dragged Lou Cheng away: “Let’s go, what are you going to show me?”
Lou Cheng’s mind is now full of chops and hanging. He is still immersed in the shock that Ding Xuerun recited such a long text. The illiterate who used to be worse than himself suddenly turned over, making Lou Cheng’s heart mixed with all kinds of feelings. Replied a little dazedly: “…Look at my d*ck.”
Ding Xuerun looked at him silently: “This is the good thing you said?”
“No, it’s not,” Lou Cheng reacted. He took out a hard object from his pocket and stuffed it into Ding Xuerun’s hand.
“Xiao Ding, this is for you. Don’t chop my d*ick, that kind of wine is not good.”
Lou Cheng looked sincere: “It’s really not good, I’ve drunk it.”
“Lou Cheng…no one wants to drink that kind of wine.” Ding Xuerun was a little helpless. He takes a look at what Lou Cheng gave him and asked softly, “What is this? A cell phone?”
“Yeah, isn’t your phone confiscated because of me? You use it, it’s the phone I get rid of before.” Lou Cheng immediately changed the subject.
When he’s lying, he usually has an innocent expression on his face. When he pretends to be innocent, he will try his best to open his eyes and look at the other person with pure eyes: “Xiao Ding, you can use this first, and if you think it’s not suitable, you can buy a new one.”
No one can resist such a look. Ding Xuerun avoided his gaze and looked down at the phone. He saw that the phone was new and the screen was very clean without any scratches. Then he put the phone back in his hand: “No need, it’s not a big deal without a mobile phone.”
For students living in dormitories, not having a mobile phone is really a big deal.
Lou Cheng said unhappily: “If you don’t have a mobile phone to play with, what are you going to do in class?.”
“Studying.”
“…God damn study.” Lou Cheng gave him the phone again, and this time he put it directly into his drawer, “You use it. If you use it you don’t need me to throw this ugly phone away.”
Ding Xuerun pursed his lower lip, took out the phone, and asked him: “Then I will pay for it. How much did you buy the phone?.”
Lou Cheng’s teeth were sour, he didn’t like people who took advantage of him, but Xiao Ding always made a clear distinction. He wants Xiao Ding to take advantage of himself, but Ding Xuerun doesn’t seem to be used to accepting others’ kindness.
“We have such a good relationship that talking about money hurts my feelings.” He didn’t care about it. “Don’t pay it. I can’t remember how much it is. It’s very cheap.”
In fact, this phone does not cost money, but the cost is not low. Moreover, there is only one in the world, and you can never find the same model again. His dad likes to invest, so his family is involved in various businesses. Two years ago, his dad aimed at the electronics market and started a company.
For the sake of the boss of his mines, Lou Cheng’s father asked someone to design several mobile phones, which cost a lot of money to make them! He even plans to put a diamond on his mobile phone! He made a special call to ask Lou Cheng how many carats of diamonds and what color he would like.
As far as Lou Cheng knows, the gold color of this mobile phone case is mixed with real gold.
The designer claims that this phone is inspired by the Ferrari 166 and has a streamlined design, but the finished product is a piece of dirt.
Lou Cheng hadn’t used it once, he was ashamed.
Ding Xuerun was dissatisfied with his answer and frowned lightly: “If you don’t tell me how much it is, I don’t want it, you take it back.”
“No, don’t.” The mobile phone was pushed around in the hands of the two of them, Lou Cheng bit the bullet and made up: “Actually, my dad bought this mobile phone. He bought it for 998 yuan on TV. When he bought the mobile phone, he also gave the washing machine away. It’s like paying it up for nothing.”
“Really don’t need money,” he said sincerely, and blinked, “You can use it, you see.” He pointed and opened his eyes and said nonsense: “It was broken by me. I’ve been using it for a long time.”
Because the phone case was too hard, he smashed it roughly a few times before smashing a small gap. It can be seen that the quality is very good. The disadvantage is that it’s a bit heavy. Although the hardware is not as good as the latest model, at the time, it was the best mobile phone hardware.
Ding Xuerun paused: “No, it’s still…”
“Xiao Ding, let me tell you the truth,” Lou Cheng interrupted him before he could finish. “This 998 fell into the manure pit and it can’t be cleaned. Why do you think it is this color?.”
Ding Xuerun looked complicated: “…”
He felt as if he was holding a pile of shit.
Lou Cheng looked at him as if he had finally been persuaded, and he was relieved. He even made up such a bizarre story for 998 in order to send him a mobile phone.
“Shit…The phone is given to you, so don’t give it back to me.” Lou Cheng slapped his nose after speaking as if there was a peculiar smell in the air.
Fortunately, Ding Xuerun accepted his statement without showing any disgust, and thanked Lou Cheng: “I’ll treat you to lunch.”
“Do you want to eat in the cafeteria?”
“Well, the cafeteria.”
“Okay.” Lou Cheng was happy, and said in a low voice, “The breakfast you made is delicious.”
Ding Xuerun smiled. Because it’s time for class, he doesn’t make any sound.
This class is geography. Although class 4 is a science class, the students in the class are students who will choose science in the next semester, but they are still very serious about the liberal arts subjects.
Because in the exam ranking, the scores of liberal arts subjects will also be counted. There will be a total of three rankings, one for general subjects, one for science, and one for liberal arts. The three comparisons provide a reference for students to choose arts and sciences at the end of the term.
Lou Cheng had no interest in geography. He ate chicken on his stomach for a while, and when the game was over, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Ding next to him who was also sneak off.
He saw Ding Xuerun wrapped the phone in a paper towel, lowered his head, and sniffed it secretly—as if to confirm whether there was any residual smell.
Lou Cheng almost laughed out loud.
Now, he stopped playing the game, so he buried his head and peeked at what Ding Xuerun was doing in class. Ding Xuerun sniffed it, but didn’t smell the strange odor, and felt a little relieved. Then, like a researcher, he lowered his head and carefully inspected the crack of the phone to see if there were any mysterious residues inside.
Lou Cheng really couldn’t help but laugh this time, his shoulders were shaking. Ding Xuerun heard it and knew that Lou Cheng had seen it, so he blocked his new mobile phone with a book, and said angrily: “Don’t laugh.”
Lou Cheng raised his head, his chin rested on the mountain of books on his desk, eyes curved into a beautiful arc, filled with bright shards of light, and his lazy appearance resembled a big human-shaped cat lying on his stomach: “Xiao Ding ah, why are you so cute.”
Ding Xuerun said nothing, who is to blame for this?
But the phone came for nothing, it was Lou Cheng’s heart. Of course, it’s impossible for him to check whether there is anything unclean in front of Lou Cheng.
Of course, it is also impossible for Lou Cheng to tell Xiao Ding that the mobile phone has not been in the manure pit, but it is also made of gold, and valuable.
At noon, Ding Xuerun agreed to treat Lou Cheng to lunch, and the two went to the small canteen on the top floor of the cafeteria.
Lou Cheng gave him the menu and asked him to order.
Ding Xuerun would ask him considerately one by one, do you want this one, do you want that one.
“Do you want hot and sour soup or tofu soup? Or shrimp soup?”
“Both is fine.” Lou Cheng is a native of Northeast China, he never drinks soup, and he is fond of sugar and likes to eat sweets food.
Lou Cheng watched him order the food and noticed a trivial matter. Ding Xuerun’s treat was much more generous than his treat. He remembered that when the two of them came to the cafeteria last time, he ordered very little and said enough.
This time Ding Xuerun’s treat changed, he ordered a lot. He wrote the name of the dish on the list given by the cafeteria, then walked to the small cafeteria window and handed the list to the uncle of the cafeteria: “Table number 6.”
Ding Xuerun returned to the dining table, and a couple walked past him.
Ding Xuerun stopped suddenly and looked up at the man and woman in school uniforms. Although the two did not hold hands, the intimate atmosphere was obviously a romantic relationship.
A man and a woman sat down at a table next to them.
Ding Xuerun remained calm, lowered his head, and took out the meal card Lou Cheng had given him from his school uniform pocket. He raised his head again and glanced at the beautiful girl with light makeup. After confirming that it was the same person, Ding Xuerun looked at Lou Cheng with a slightly sympathetic and complicated look.
As if there was a green hat on his head.
Lou Cheng looked back into his eyes: “What?”
“…Nothing.” Ding Xuerun looked away and glanced at the girl with a pointed chin and big eyes. The boy sitting next to her is quite handsome, but he is obviously not as handsome as Lou Cheng, and there is a big gap.
Lou Cheng noticed his gaze and turned his head to follow the focus of his gaze. Ding Xuerun couldn’t help but tightened, thinking that Lou Cheng would be very angry when he saw it. He didn’t expect Lou Cheng to take a look, then turned his head calmly. He said in a low voice, “What are you looking at other people’s girlfriends for?” Do you like it?”
Ding Xuerun: “…”
Lou Cheng tilted his head and said in a low tone: “That one looks okay, if you want to chase, I will help you to find out.”
Ding Xuerun suddenly realized something, he raised his head and stared at Lou Cheng seriously.
His eyes were focused, and made Lou Cheng feels a little uncomfortable, he lowered his head to peel off the disposable chopsticks: “Xiao Ding, I know I’m handsome, so don’t look at me like that.”
“Lou Cheng,” Ding Xuerun pretended to be indifferent, “Do you know that girl?”
“Which one? The one eating at the next table?”
Ding Xuerun let out an “um”.
Lou Cheng turned his head and glanced, his face was at a loss: “…Who is she?, why would I know her? Do you want to know?”
“This.” Ding Xuerun took out his meal card and lightly tapped the table with his finger, “Isn’t this her? Your girlfriend?”
Lou Cheng took a serious look, and then suddenly realized.
“Oh, this card belongs to my little brother, and the card sticker belongs to his ex-girlfriend.” It was just that when Ding Xuerun asked that day, he did not say anything, did not admit, or deny it.
Unexpectedly, Ding Xuerun thought he was given a green hat.
“Open your eyes and see, is that man half as handsome as I am? Who the hell can afford to give me a green hat?”
Lou Cheng said slowly: “Besides I’m single, I don’t like this kind of little girl in her style.”
Ding Xuerun’s fingers on the table stopped slowly, and he casually said: “You don’t like little girls, what kind of girl do you like?”
“Then I have to wait until I like her.” Lou Cheng said indifferently.
“So you mean, you don’t have anyone you like?”
The serving in the cafeteria is slow and they can talk for a long time.
Lou Cheng jokingly said: “Of course, I’m so handsome, so what a good girl is worthy of me?” After he finished speaking, he turned around and asked Ding Xuerun with interest: “Hey, Xiao Ding. Have you ever been in love?”
Ding Xuerun shook his head.
Lou Cheng said “Eh”, a little surprised and not so surprised. Although Xiao Ding is a good person, with such a cold personality, it is difficult to be chased by a girl. He saw Ding Xuerun talking to other people, it was polite and alienated. He also keeps a good distance.
Lou Cheng propped his chin: “Then you haven’t given your first kiss yet? Hmm?”
Ding Xuerun didn’t speak this time. When it comes to these topics, he is not as open as Lou Cheng, he is shy.
Lou Cheng smiled clearly, and silence meant acknowledgment. He also said: “There should be a lot of girls chasing you. Are you not planning to fall in love? Would you like me to introduce one to you for an unrestrained first love? Which one do you like? Pure or mature? Big boobs or small boobs?”
“No, I don’t like those, and I don’t have time.”
Ding Xuerun’s indifference came up again, Lou Cheng said, “Why don’t you have time? What are you doing with all your time?”
“Studying.”
Lou Cheng: “…” Here comes again, this person will die if he doesn’t pretend to be a top student!
Ding Xuerun familiarized himself with the new mobile phone and took the time to get a new phone card. He first called home and said that he had lost his mobile phone and changed it to a new one. This was his new number.
On Wednesday, the seating schedule for the exam came out.
After entering the classroom, Teacher Dou first posted the seating plan on the bulletin board, and then stood on the podium and said: “Students, tomorrow is the midterm exam.”
“Our teacher doesn’t know how difficult the exam is. Don’t be stressed. Just answer it like how you usually do.” After probably saying something that he would say before each exam, Teacher Dou again said: “There was a meeting just now. After this exam, the class will be slightly adjusted according to the ranking.”
“Students whose grades have regressed too severely will be assigned to parallel classes. If I said, a classmate is assigned away, that’s okay. Work hard and you will have a chance to come back.”
This kind of system of Liu Zhong high school is the only one in the whole province. It is often used by other schools as a source of talk: “You don’t know Liu Zhong high school, that’s called hell. If you fail an exam, you will be assigned to a bad class. The mentality of the students who fail in the exam will collapse, who can stand it? No wonder there are so many students jumping off the building…”
Even so, there are still so many parents who send their children one after another to study in this “hell”.
But in fact, this kind of rumor is a bit exaggerated. Most of the Liu Zhong high school students are highly motivated and self-conscious, especially those in key classes. Once they enter this class, they will never want to be expelled.
Because their grades are very stable, the type of incidents that are sorted out as a result of too much regress has a very low probability of occurrence.
Ding Xuerun also remembered this.
Teacher Dou informed him of this on the first day of school so that he would not be affected and could concentrate on his studies.
Ding Xuerun didn’t care about this, because this kind of thing couldn’t happen to him. But now… Ding Xuerun turned to look at Lou Cheng who was symbolically packing his schoolbags.
Lou Cheng always went to school without carrying a schoolbag. He was caught by the dean yesterday and reprimanded him: “Look at you! Fooling around! You look like what! What about your schoolbag? What are you going to learn if you don’t carry your schoolbag?”
Lou Cheng, who is three heads taller than the dean, stood upright and looked down at the dean and said: “I met a wild dog downstairs. It took away my schoolbag. I will buy a new one today.”
The Dean shook his head and left with a “hopeless” look on his face.
Lou Cheng stuffed his school uniform into his schoolbag. He wore a denim jacket inside, which he usually wore when he is riding motorcycles. He would change into a chip airbag suit and fluid protective gear when he was racing on the track.
For him, the exam is like a holiday, so he has another four days of holiday, so happy.
Ding Xuerun looked at his excitement when he heard the exam, and knew that he might not come. He left his seat and went to the front to look at the seating schedule. It was estimated that the examination seating was based on grades. He was a transfer student, and he is in the same examination room as Lou Cheng, who was absent from the examination last time, and the seats were very close to each other.
He went back to his seat, checked some information with his mobile phone, and then asked: “Lou Cheng, are you going to take the exam tomorrow?”
“What am I going to take? I don’t know how to do it.” Lou Cheng didn’t lookup.
“Then take the exam.”
“Huh? But I can’t.”
“I just saw the examination room, we are in the same examination room.”
“Huh?” Lou Cheng did not continue to pack his schoolbags but looked at Ding Xuerun.
Ding Xuerun said unhurriedly: “And we are very close.”
Lou Cheng opened his mouth, and Ding Xuerun said again: “You didn’t hear what Teacher Dou said, is it possible that the last one will be kicked out?”
Lou Cheng seemed to finally understand what he meant, and he showed a sudden realization and shocked look: “Xiao Ding, do you want to copy my answer?”
“…” Ding Xuerun almost squeezed the mechanical pencil in his hand.

What’s more, Xiao Ding’s back is really beautiful, thin but not woody, and well-proportioned. The most amazing thing is that he even has moles different from ordinary people. He has a red rose-colored mole. There are only a few of them, but they are firmly holding his eyes.
Lou Cheng respected him, he turned around, and said through the door: “Are you taking a shower? Why don’t you turn on the light?”
“I didn’t found the switch.” Ding Xuerun rustled to put on his clothes, he hasn’t taken a bath yet.
“The switch is underneath, and I kicked it. Didn’t you see the glow on the switch?”
“Didn’t notice it,” Ding Xuerun put on his clothes quickly, “Why did you go to the bathroom downstairs?”
“I’m just going downstairs to drink some water… who knows…” Lou Cheng paused, and immediately thought of something, and said nonchalantly, “Anyway, it’s not like I haven’t seen you naked in our dorm room.”
I haven’t seen it yet.
Not to mention that he lived in the dormitory once a week, and Ding Xuerun changed clothes on his back. Every time he came out of the bath, he comes out in pajamas.
Lou Cheng didn’t take this matter to heart. Ding Xuerun returned to the princess room and calmed down after a while.
He was lying in the dark, staring at the romantic starry sky dome of the princess room.
On the ceiling, there are stars and moons glowing dimly in the night.
Lou Cheng usually wakes up very late in the morning because he never sets the alarm. He hears the bell of the next school ringing and knows that early reading has started, so he woke up slowly, and began to wash.
After going downstairs, Lou Cheng knocked on the door of the princess room. After receiving no response, he twisted the doorknob. Sure enough, there was no one inside, and it was neatly cleaned, just like when no one was here before.
“So heartless.” Lou Cheng cursed in a low voice, “You ran away alone to class without calling me, huh.”
He found his school uniform and put it on. When he was about to go out, he suddenly saw the food on the table.
Lou Cheng thought he has blurred vision, so he took a few serious looks at it before he was sure that it was really a breakfast.
He approached and found that it was a bowl of decent shrimp porridge, a small plate of cold dishes, and a hard-boiled egg.
He doesn’t know how long Ding Xuerun has been gone, but the porridge has lost its temperature.
Lou Cheng noticed the note on the corner of the rice bowl which was written by Ding Xuerun and told him: “I hope you don’t mind if I use your kitchen. I saw that you have ingredients in the refrigerator and make a little breakfast. If it’s cold when you wake up, just heat it in the microwave, heat the porridge for one and a half minutes, and boil the eggs in boiling water for three minutes. I’m going to class.”
There is a sign on the note, which is the word “rùn”. His handwriting is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye, he looks like a scholar when he reads the handwriting.
Lou Cheng was moved a little bit, thinking Xiao Ding was still very good.
After thinking about it, he rummaged around the house to find an unused cell phone. The phone was given by his father, the color of local tyrant gold. At that time his dad called and asked him: “Son, you can customize your phone with a diamond. How many carats of diamonds do you want?”
Lou Cheng refused the diamond customization, but he still got the phone and later he found that it looked similar to the mobile phone “Just 998 yuan! Only 998 yuan!” on TV. It was as ugly as it was.
He vowed to never see this phone again in his life.
Lou Cheng turned on the phone and saw that there was a lot of power left, so he smashed it roughly on the ground twice and made a gap in one corner of the mobile phone, and then he put the newly broken mobile phone into his pocket with satisfaction.
He didn’t get in through the school gate and jumped in from the sidewall. Because he was late every day, he had to register outside the door every time he was late—the school guard remembered him in his freshman year. If you are late too many times, they will contact the headteacher and even deduct the points of Class 4.
Lou Cheng is very self-aware, knowing that Dou Zhiwei’s tolerance for him is because he does not cause serious trouble. If he affects the class and the study of the top students, he will certainly be criticized.

It seems that only Xiao Ding can play with him in the class.
Lou Cheng was extremely late today. When he stepped over the wall and entered the school, the second class had not finished yet. Lou Cheng slowly walked through this path that no one would pass. When he walked to the abandoned dormitory, he saw a man and a woman holding hands, hiding under the tree, and quietly kissing.
He walked straightly without squinting, muttering to himself about that man and woman are having an indecent relationship, and how dirty their saliva is.
He walked to the teaching building and lingered at the door of the classroom for a while, and then walked in through the back door when the bell rang after the class is over.
The second class that just ended was a language and literature class, so all the students in the classroom are reciting at the moment, and almost no students go out.
Lou Cheng saw Ding Xuerun holding a Chinese book, and queuing up with the class leader, waiting for others to finish reciting it.
Lou Cheng’s stomach was full in the morning, so he walked over with a smile, walked to him, and bumped him lightly with his shoulder: “Xiao Ding.”
Ding Xuerun turned to look at him: “You are here.”
Lou Cheng lowered his head and hooked his fingers, and said mysteriously: “ Come with me, and I will show you something good.”
Perhaps he was afraid of affecting the recitation of the classmates in front of him, so he suppressed his voice very low and leaned very close, breathing next to him.
Instead of hiding, Ding Xuerun said naturally and calmly: “Then you can show it to me later, I’ll recite a book first.”
Lou Cheng “snorted” and laughed, the low laughter seemed to carry an electric current, which tickled people’s hearts.
Ding Xuerun’s ears moved slightly, and his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
Lou Cheng propped his elbows on his shoulders: “Oh, I can’t see it, you still reciting.”
“…There are so many things you can’t see.”
Lou Cheng raised his eyebrows: “Stop reciting it, what are you reciting? If you can recite it, then I will chop my d*ck and made it into wine for you to drink!” (This is a cuss word)
He just glanced at the book. The text was like a foot-wrapped cloth, and it was longer than his d*ck. It would be strange if Ding Xuerun could recite it!
The person who recited the previous book didn’t know if he heard Lou Cheng’s bold words, and suddenly he got stuck: “Tonight I hear your pipa playing, tonight I hear your…”
He was stuck for several seconds before the class leader took his gaze away from Lou Cheng and looked at the boy who recited the book: “Did you finish reciting it?”
“No…” Before the boy could speak, the class leader ticked him behind his name and then told him to go away. He secretly glanced at Luo Cheng, and said softly: “Okay, next one.”
The next one is naturally Ding Xuerun.
He closed the Chinese book and looked over at the side where Lou Cheng smiled leisurely and he was certain that he could not recite it, and then he said to the class leader: “I’m going to start.”
The class leader hummed a few times, holding the book high, and secretly looking at Lou Cheng while reading the book.
Lou Cheng usually sleeps or absent, and it’s hard to see his face up.
“《Pipa Xing》, Bai Juyi, Xunyang Jiangtou…”
He recites very smoothly.
When he first recited a paragraph or two, Lou Cheng’s expression was still very calm and composed. But when he heard Ding Xuerun speak fast and recite more and more smoothly, he slowly began to get a beat in his heart. He even took out a Chinese book, intending to look at Ding Xuerun’s recitation.
As a result, he flipped through the book for a long time and didn’t know which page, but the class leader saw it and reminded him.
Lou Cheng turned to 《Pipa Xing》. However, he didn’t know where Xiao Ding was reciting. When he saw so many classical Chinese characters, he felt dizzy and wanted to vomit.
He had to pull a long face and said to the class leader: “Listen to him, tell me if he recites the wrong one.”
Listening to Ding Xuerun’s endless reciting, the leisurely smile on Lou Cheng’s face gradually disappeared completely.
Ding Xuerun recited it quickly, and waited until his last word was finished, and said: “I’m done reciting.” Lou Cheng was already stunned.
The class leader gave Ding Xuerun a tick.
She looked at Lou Cheng and asked him softly: “Lou Cheng, you… do you want to recite the book?”
He had a low pressure all over his body: “…I’m hanging on my back.”
Ding Xuerun held the Chinese book in his arms, and calmly dragged Lou Cheng away: “Let’s go, what are you going to show me?”
Lou Cheng’s mind is now full of chops and hanging. He is still immersed in the shock that Ding Xuerun recited such a long text. The illiterate who used to be worse than himself suddenly turned over, making Lou Cheng’s heart mixed with all kinds of feelings. Replied a little dazedly: “…Look at my d*ck.”
Ding Xuerun looked at him silently: “This is the good thing you said?”
“No, it’s not,” Lou Cheng reacted. He took out a hard object from his pocket and stuffed it into Ding Xuerun’s hand.
“Xiao Ding, this is for you. Don’t chop my d*ick, that kind of wine is not good.”
Lou Cheng looked sincere: “It’s really not good, I’ve drunk it.”
“Lou Cheng…no one wants to drink that kind of wine.” Ding Xuerun was a little helpless. He takes a look at what Lou Cheng gave him and asked softly, “What is this? A cell phone?”
“Yeah, isn’t your phone confiscated because of me? You use it, it’s the phone I get rid of before.” Lou Cheng immediately changed the subject.
When he’s lying, he usually has an innocent expression on his face. When he pretends to be innocent, he will try his best to open his eyes and look at the other person with pure eyes: “Xiao Ding, you can use this first, and if you think it’s not suitable, you can buy a new one.”
No one can resist such a look. Ding Xuerun avoided his gaze and looked down at the phone. He saw that the phone was new and the screen was very clean without any scratches. Then he put the phone back in his hand: “No need, it’s not a big deal without a mobile phone.”
For students living in dormitories, not having a mobile phone is really a big deal.
Lou Cheng said unhappily: “If you don’t have a mobile phone to play with, what are you going to do in class?.”
“Studying.”
“…God damn study.” Lou Cheng gave him the phone again, and this time he put it directly into his drawer, “You use it. If you use it you don’t need me to throw this ugly phone away.”
Ding Xuerun pursed his lower lip, took out the phone, and asked him: “Then I will pay for it. How much did you buy the phone?.”
Lou Cheng’s teeth were sour, he didn’t like people who took advantage of him, but Xiao Ding always made a clear distinction. He wants Xiao Ding to take advantage of himself, but Ding Xuerun doesn’t seem to be used to accepting others’ kindness.
“We have such a good relationship that talking about money hurts my feelings.” He didn’t care about it. “Don’t pay it. I can’t remember how much it is. It’s very cheap.”
In fact, this phone does not cost money, but the cost is not low. Moreover, there is only one in the world, and you can never find the same model again. His dad likes to invest, so his family is involved in various businesses. Two years ago, his dad aimed at the electronics market and started a company.
For the sake of the boss of his mines, Lou Cheng’s father asked someone to design several mobile phones, which cost a lot of money to make them! He even plans to put a diamond on his mobile phone! He made a special call to ask Lou Cheng how many carats of diamonds and what color he would like.
As far as Lou Cheng knows, the gold color of this mobile phone case is mixed with real gold.
The designer claims that this phone is inspired by the Ferrari 166 and has a streamlined design, but the finished product is a piece of dirt.
Lou Cheng hadn’t used it once, he was ashamed.
Ding Xuerun was dissatisfied with his answer and frowned lightly: “If you don’t tell me how much it is, I don’t want it, you take it back.”
“No, don’t.” The mobile phone was pushed around in the hands of the two of them, Lou Cheng bit the bullet and made up: “Actually, my dad bought this mobile phone. He bought it for 998 yuan on TV. When he bought the mobile phone, he also gave the washing machine away. It’s like paying it up for nothing.”
“Really don’t need money,” he said sincerely, and blinked, “You can use it, you see.” He pointed and opened his eyes and said nonsense: “It was broken by me. I’ve been using it for a long time.”
Because the phone case was too hard, he smashed it roughly a few times before smashing a small gap. It can be seen that the quality is very good. The disadvantage is that it’s a bit heavy. Although the hardware is not as good as the latest model, at the time, it was the best mobile phone hardware.
Ding Xuerun paused: “No, it’s still…”
“Xiao Ding, let me tell you the truth,” Lou Cheng interrupted him before he could finish. “This 998 fell into the manure pit and it can’t be cleaned. Why do you think it is this color?.”
Ding Xuerun looked complicated: “…”
He felt as if he was holding a pile of shit.
Lou Cheng looked at him as if he had finally been persuaded, and he was relieved. He even made up such a bizarre story for 998 in order to send him a mobile phone.
“Shit…The phone is given to you, so don’t give it back to me.” Lou Cheng slapped his nose after speaking as if there was a peculiar smell in the air.
Fortunately, Ding Xuerun accepted his statement without showing any disgust, and thanked Lou Cheng: “I’ll treat you to lunch.”
“Do you want to eat in the cafeteria?”
“Well, the cafeteria.”
“Okay.” Lou Cheng was happy, and said in a low voice, “The breakfast you made is delicious.”
Ding Xuerun smiled. Because it’s time for class, he doesn’t make any sound.
This class is geography. Although class 4 is a science class, the students in the class are students who will choose science in the next semester, but they are still very serious about the liberal arts subjects.
Because in the exam ranking, the scores of liberal arts subjects will also be counted. There will be a total of three rankings, one for general subjects, one for science, and one for liberal arts. The three comparisons provide a reference for students to choose arts and sciences at the end of the term.
Lou Cheng had no interest in geography. He ate chicken on his stomach for a while, and when the game was over, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Ding next to him who was also sneak off.
He saw Ding Xuerun wrapped the phone in a paper towel, lowered his head, and sniffed it secretly—as if to confirm whether there was any residual smell.
Lou Cheng almost laughed out loud.
Now, he stopped playing the game, so he buried his head and peeked at what Ding Xuerun was doing in class. Ding Xuerun sniffed it, but didn’t smell the strange odor, and felt a little relieved. Then, like a researcher, he lowered his head and carefully inspected the crack of the phone to see if there were any mysterious residues inside.
Lou Cheng really couldn’t help but laugh this time, his shoulders were shaking. Ding Xuerun heard it and knew that Lou Cheng had seen it, so he blocked his new mobile phone with a book, and said angrily: “Don’t laugh.”
Lou Cheng raised his head, his chin rested on the mountain of books on his desk, eyes curved into a beautiful arc, filled with bright shards of light, and his lazy appearance resembled a big human-shaped cat lying on his stomach: “Xiao Ding ah, why are you so cute.”
Ding Xuerun said nothing, who is to blame for this?
But the phone came for nothing, it was Lou Cheng’s heart. Of course, it’s impossible for him to check whether there is anything unclean in front of Lou Cheng.
Of course, it is also impossible for Lou Cheng to tell Xiao Ding that the mobile phone has not been in the manure pit, but it is also made of gold, and valuable.
At noon, Ding Xuerun agreed to treat Lou Cheng to lunch, and the two went to the small canteen on the top floor of the cafeteria.
Lou Cheng gave him the menu and asked him to order.
Ding Xuerun would ask him considerately one by one, do you want this one, do you want that one.
“Do you want hot and sour soup or tofu soup? Or shrimp soup?”
“Both is fine.” Lou Cheng is a native of Northeast China, he never drinks soup, and he is fond of sugar and likes to eat sweets food.
Lou Cheng watched him order the food and noticed a trivial matter. Ding Xuerun’s treat was much more generous than his treat. He remembered that when the two of them came to the cafeteria last time, he ordered very little and said enough.
This time Ding Xuerun’s treat changed, he ordered a lot. He wrote the name of the dish on the list given by the cafeteria, then walked to the small cafeteria window and handed the list to the uncle of the cafeteria: “Table number 6.”
Ding Xuerun returned to the dining table, and a couple walked past him.
Ding Xuerun stopped suddenly and looked up at the man and woman in school uniforms. Although the two did not hold hands, the intimate atmosphere was obviously a romantic relationship.
A man and a woman sat down at a table next to them.
Ding Xuerun remained calm, lowered his head, and took out the meal card Lou Cheng had given him from his school uniform pocket. He raised his head again and glanced at the beautiful girl with light makeup. After confirming that it was the same person, Ding Xuerun looked at Lou Cheng with a slightly sympathetic and complicated look.
As if there was a green hat on his head.
Lou Cheng looked back into his eyes: “What?”
“…Nothing.” Ding Xuerun looked away and glanced at the girl with a pointed chin and big eyes. The boy sitting next to her is quite handsome, but he is obviously not as handsome as Lou Cheng, and there is a big gap.
Lou Cheng noticed his gaze and turned his head to follow the focus of his gaze. Ding Xuerun couldn’t help but tightened, thinking that Lou Cheng would be very angry when he saw it. He didn’t expect Lou Cheng to take a look, then turned his head calmly. He said in a low voice, “What are you looking at other people’s girlfriends for?” Do you like it?”
Ding Xuerun: “…”
Lou Cheng tilted his head and said in a low tone: “That one looks okay, if you want to chase, I will help you to find out.”
Ding Xuerun suddenly realized something, he raised his head and stared at Lou Cheng seriously.
His eyes were focused, and made Lou Cheng feels a little uncomfortable, he lowered his head to peel off the disposable chopsticks: “Xiao Ding, I know I’m handsome, so don’t look at me like that.”
“Lou Cheng,” Ding Xuerun pretended to be indifferent, “Do you know that girl?”
“Which one? The one eating at the next table?”
Ding Xuerun let out an “um”.
Lou Cheng turned his head and glanced, his face was at a loss: “…Who is she?, why would I know her? Do you want to know?”
“This.” Ding Xuerun took out his meal card and lightly tapped the table with his finger, “Isn’t this her? Your girlfriend?”
Lou Cheng took a serious look, and then suddenly realized.
“Oh, this card belongs to my little brother, and the card sticker belongs to his ex-girlfriend.” It was just that when Ding Xuerun asked that day, he did not say anything, did not admit, or deny it.
Unexpectedly, Ding Xuerun thought he was given a green hat.
“Open your eyes and see, is that man half as handsome as I am? Who the hell can afford to give me a green hat?”
Lou Cheng said slowly: “Besides I’m single, I don’t like this kind of little girl in her style.”
Ding Xuerun’s fingers on the table stopped slowly, and he casually said: “You don’t like little girls, what kind of girl do you like?”
“Then I have to wait until I like her.” Lou Cheng said indifferently.
“So you mean, you don’t have anyone you like?”
The serving in the cafeteria is slow and they can talk for a long time.
Lou Cheng jokingly said: “Of course, I’m so handsome, so what a good girl is worthy of me?” After he finished speaking, he turned around and asked Ding Xuerun with interest: “Hey, Xiao Ding. Have you ever been in love?”
Ding Xuerun shook his head.
Lou Cheng said “Eh”, a little surprised and not so surprised. Although Xiao Ding is a good person, with such a cold personality, it is difficult to be chased by a girl. He saw Ding Xuerun talking to other people, it was polite and alienated. He also keeps a good distance.
Lou Cheng propped his chin: “Then you haven’t given your first kiss yet? Hmm?”
Ding Xuerun didn’t speak this time. When it comes to these topics, he is not as open as Lou Cheng, he is shy.
Lou Cheng smiled clearly, and silence meant acknowledgment. He also said: “There should be a lot of girls chasing you. Are you not planning to fall in love? Would you like me to introduce one to you for an unrestrained first love? Which one do you like? Pure or mature? Big boobs or small boobs?”
“No, I don’t like those, and I don’t have time.”
Ding Xuerun’s indifference came up again, Lou Cheng said, “Why don’t you have time? What are you doing with all your time?”
“Studying.”
Lou Cheng: “…” Here comes again, this person will die if he doesn’t pretend to be a top student!
Ding Xuerun familiarized himself with the new mobile phone and took the time to get a new phone card. He first called home and said that he had lost his mobile phone and changed it to a new one. This was his new number.
On Wednesday, the seating schedule for the exam came out.
After entering the classroom, Teacher Dou first posted the seating plan on the bulletin board, and then stood on the podium and said: “Students, tomorrow is the midterm exam.”
“Our teacher doesn’t know how difficult the exam is. Don’t be stressed. Just answer it like how you usually do.” After probably saying something that he would say before each exam, Teacher Dou again said: “There was a meeting just now. After this exam, the class will be slightly adjusted according to the ranking.”
“Students whose grades have regressed too severely will be assigned to parallel classes. If I said, a classmate is assigned away, that’s okay. Work hard and you will have a chance to come back.”
This kind of system of Liu Zhong high school is the only one in the whole province. It is often used by other schools as a source of talk: “You don’t know Liu Zhong high school, that’s called hell. If you fail an exam, you will be assigned to a bad class. The mentality of the students who fail in the exam will collapse, who can stand it? No wonder there are so many students jumping off the building…”
Even so, there are still so many parents who send their children one after another to study in this “hell”.
But in fact, this kind of rumor is a bit exaggerated. Most of the Liu Zhong high school students are highly motivated and self-conscious, especially those in key classes. Once they enter this class, they will never want to be expelled.
Because their grades are very stable, the type of incidents that are sorted out as a result of too much regress has a very low probability of occurrence.
Ding Xuerun also remembered this.
Teacher Dou informed him of this on the first day of school so that he would not be affected and could concentrate on his studies.
Ding Xuerun didn’t care about this, because this kind of thing couldn’t happen to him. But now… Ding Xuerun turned to look at Lou Cheng who was symbolically packing his schoolbags.
Lou Cheng always went to school without carrying a schoolbag. He was caught by the dean yesterday and reprimanded him: “Look at you! Fooling around! You look like what! What about your schoolbag? What are you going to learn if you don’t carry your schoolbag?”
Lou Cheng, who is three heads taller than the dean, stood upright and looked down at the dean and said: “I met a wild dog downstairs. It took away my schoolbag. I will buy a new one today.”
The Dean shook his head and left with a “hopeless” look on his face.
Lou Cheng stuffed his school uniform into his schoolbag. He wore a denim jacket inside, which he usually wore when he is riding motorcycles. He would change into a chip airbag suit and fluid protective gear when he was racing on the track.
For him, the exam is like a holiday, so he has another four days of holiday, so happy.
Ding Xuerun looked at his excitement when he heard the exam, and knew that he might not come. He left his seat and went to the front to look at the seating schedule. It was estimated that the examination seating was based on grades. He was a transfer student, and he is in the same examination room as Lou Cheng, who was absent from the examination last time, and the seats were very close to each other.
He went back to his seat, checked some information with his mobile phone, and then asked: “Lou Cheng, are you going to take the exam tomorrow?”
“What am I going to take? I don’t know how to do it.” Lou Cheng didn’t lookup.
“Then take the exam.”
“Huh? But I can’t.”
“I just saw the examination room, we are in the same examination room.”
“Huh?” Lou Cheng did not continue to pack his schoolbags but looked at Ding Xuerun.
Ding Xuerun said unhurriedly: “And we are very close.”
Lou Cheng opened his mouth, and Ding Xuerun said again: “You didn’t hear what Teacher Dou said, is it possible that the last one will be kicked out?”
Lou Cheng seemed to finally understand what he meant, and he showed a sudden realization and shocked look: “Xiao Ding, do you want to copy my answer?”
“…” Ding Xuerun almost squeezed the mechanical pencil in his hand.
