"I, yes, I'm sorry, I'm late. I can't deliver these flowers from the front door. I picked them up from the back door. I was delayed for a while on the way..."
"Okay, I understand." Hong Xiqi nodded in understanding, "That's what you want to tell me?"
"No, I...I..." Gu Yi put his hands on his trouser legs and kept rubbing them, trying to relax himself, but the more he did this, the faster his heart beat. His speech became increasingly slurred, and his upper and lower teeth and tongue started to fight, making him worse than an old man who had lost all his teeth.
It was almost the end of get out of class, and the corridor began to become noisy. Some students were walking back and forth. When they passed their class, they stretched their necks to look at them. Some people even scratched the door frame and came directly to ask gossips.
The students sitting at the door couldn't stand it any longer, so they waved away the students surrounding the door, then pulled the door handle, with an official smile on their faces, slammed the door hard in front of them, and locked it.
"get out of class is over?! Class representative, have you written down all the people who have been coming in and out of the classroom just now? Give me the list!"
The moment the door closed, the faint voice of the teacher reached the ears of the student who closed the door.
"Gu Yi, you've said 'me' a few times. get out of class is almost over. Hurry up! Don't be nervous. As long as your attitude is correct and you're not just joking, we all support you!" The classmate's heart tightened. He wondered if he was hallucinating because he was too nervous. Just in case, he still reminded him, "It's not that I deliberately want to rush you or anything. The point is that I just heard that teachers from other classes have returned. Please hurry up." , otherwise if we are discovered by the teacher during a surprise inspection soon, all of us will have to walk around without food!"...
The expression on Gu Yi's face became more and more anxious. As his eyes wandered, he caught a glimpse of the classmates squatting in the corner who had just played the video for him. When he saw one of them, he picked up a piece of white paper from the table next to him and kept talking. Shaking, he patted his pocket again, silently reminding him: There is a manuscript in his pocket! Manuscript!
"Oh, yes, yes." Gu Yi seemed to have just woken up. He rubbed the four pockets on his body for a while, and finally took out a few folded tofu blocks from the lining pocket of his suit, with dense white writing on them. The paper was unfolded hurriedly.
——Oh, I actually prepared a manuscript.
Tao You admired Gu Yi's gesture, which was similar to a speech, and his eyebrows involuntarily raised slightly.
"Do you like this?" Song Yimian glanced at Tao You's expression with the corners of his lips curled up, then looked at the white paper in Gu Yi's hand, then looked around at the surrounding classmates, and suddenly approached Tao You, confused. asked.
Tao You was startled by the sudden sound in his ears. He covered his chest and hid to the side. He frowned and glared at Song Yimian, and asked angrily, "What are you doing?"
Song Yimian patiently repeated the question, "I said, do you like this?" He said, pointing at Gu Yi as if he was afraid Tao You wouldn't understand.
——What do you like like this? Like this kind of person? Or do you like this form of confession? Could it be that he was hinting at something? ······
Because of Song Yimian's unfinished words, Tao You's thoughts turned into chaotic thoughts, running wildly in Tao You's mind, and then he was frightened by this inexplicable idea that appeared in his mind.
She saw Song Yimian's "I'm not kidding" expression on his face, and his clear, direct, and insightful eyes staring at Tao You. She had never been able to stand Song Yimian looking at her like this, as if he was trying to kill her. All thoughts seem to be seen through. She couldn't last more than three seconds each time.
Three seconds later, Tao You couldn't tell from Song Yimian's eyes what he was thinking or what he meant by the words he asked, and he even looked away in panic.
——No, why should I hide? ! How guilty am I? I didn't do anything wrong.
Tao You looked at the ceiling, moved his eyes, boldly looked back at Song Yimian, and glared at him. He didn't forget what Song Yimian said just now, as if he was on Ding Dongyi's side, pulling up every word. She suddenly said, "Guan, you, shit, no, no!" As she said that, she quietly rolled her eyes and turned back to look ahead.
Hong Xiqi and Gu Yi.
Song Yimian noticed the small expression on Tao You's face, helplessly closed his eyes and clenched his back molars, and exhaled a long breath as if to comfort himself. Then, as if he thought of something, he poked Tao You and asked, " Are your relatives here?"
A second later, Tao You immediately realized what Song Yimian meant. His cheeks were hot, and he unceremoniously twisted Song Yimian's arm. He gritted his teeth and said, "You're just here, auntie! I have such a temper." Damn, you’re so vindictive, if you don’t want to be scolded, don’t talk to me, or go talk to someone with a good temper!”
Song Yimian rubbed his slightly aching arm, feeling that there was something in Tao You's words, but he couldn't guess what she was thinking. Every time like this, Song Yimian has the illusion that Tao You's brain structure is different from ordinary people. It seems that there are many more twists and turns in her mind, and she will be trapped in it if she is not careful.
What does it mean to talk to someone with a good temper? What is she saying? Auntie is really here?
"I'm not...don't..." Song Yimian wanted to defend himself, but realized that no matter how he tried to explain to her now, it would be in vain, and she wouldn't listen.
I firmly believe that Tao You will not lose her temper for no reason. There is only one reason for her to be like this. He finally said, "Dress warmly these days, drink more hot water, and don't catch a cold. There won't be any games for you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so get some rest."
"Calm down." He added, "You get acne when you're angry."
——Think whatever you like!
Tao You didn't want to waste any more time explaining to Song Yimian. Anyway, he had already concluded that she was irritable because of her menstrual period.

Here, Gu Yi's hands couldn't stop shaking, like Parkinson's disease. After tearing a few corners, he finally unfolded the manuscript that was still complete and readable. Because of the shaking of his hands, the white paper also shook up and down. He lowered his head slightly and moved closer to the manuscript, trying hard to see the words on it clearly.
"Dear, dear, dear, dear classmate, dear teacher, big, good afternoon everyone? I am Li Hao from the mathematics competition class in the second year of high school?!" Gu Yi's mind was already too nervous, It went blank as if he had pressed the delete button, too numb to function on his own. His voice trembled, and he stuttered and read it carefully from the first word.
The pink bubbles in the air burst one after another, making it a bit cold.
——Oh, is the speech really finished? !
Tao You was the first to react and realized that there was something wrong with the manuscript Gu Yi was holding.
At first he had the courage to speak loudly, but when he finished reading the first sentence, Gu Yi realized something was wrong. The sentence structure at the beginning did not look like the confession draft he had revised for more than a dozen versions, but his brain Before I had time to think, my eyes and mouth were already looking at the following sentences, and I read them out along the way. His voice became softer and softer, and his speaking speed also slowed down with confusion, and finally he pronounced the name of his classmate, Li Hao, uncertainly.
"This... this is not what I prepared..." Gu Yi's legs and feet became weak, his eyes full of panic and horror as he glanced at Hong Xiqi, who was expressionless, and took the manuscript away. Some, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, carefully read the manuscript over and over again, and saw that just above the white paper, written in an eclectic font, "Next Week's Speech Draft, Fourth Edition" was written in large characters .
Is this a speech prepared by Li Hao? ! Why is he here? What about his confession? !
Gu Yi looked at the students squatting in the corner with questioning eyes, including Li Hao.
When Li Hao heard the words "classmate" and "teacher" from Gu Yi's mouth, he realized that the matter was not simple. He seemed to have forgotten something.
It wasn't until he heard his name popping out of Gu Yi's mouth that he realized that what Gu Yi was holding was the speech he had prepared.
Li Hao's small eyes with single eyelids stared out in shock. He rubbed his body for a while, but found nothing. Several other students were worried on the side, and finally simply
He started rubbing Li Hao's body for a while, but still found nothing. They turned around and showed their hands to Gu Yi angrily.
"You just confessed your love. Why did you get someone else's speech?" A classmate from class one said.
"Is this okay?"
"This is the first time I've seen such a confession. It's so refreshing."
"Is this way of expressing love popular now? Am I disconnected from the Internet?"
Some students were stroking and biting their ears while waiting for Gu Yi's treatment.
An idea flashed in Li Hao's mind, and he pulled out a piece of white paper folded into tofu pieces from the heel of his shoe. Due to the friction when walking, it had more wrinkles than the one on Gu Yi's hand, and it also had a sour smell. Li Hao pinched it with four fingers and shook it open. It was the confession draft that Gu Yi had been preparing for a long time.
"Gu Yi!" Li Hao pinched his throat and called out to Gu Yi, shaking the manuscript in his hand, "Here you go!"
Gu Yi looked embarrassed. He crumpled the speech in his hand into a ball and threw it behind him. He didn't know where it was thrown.
"Don't litter, points will be deducted during the hygiene inspection!"
"Hey, you..." Li Hao watched helplessly as the speech he had finally revised was picked up by the health committee member of the first class and thrown into the trash can like a basketball.
Gu Yi took a long breath and looked into Hong Xiqi's eyes that had lost patience again seriously, "This is the first time I confess to a girl, and I don't know how to say it. A simple sentence of 'I like you seems very insincere, so I'm going to do it'" It’s a very long confession, a whole love letter that I copied from the Internet at the beginning, but later I revised many versions, all of which are what I want to say from the bottom of my heart!” Gu Yi then explained, “I’m afraid. When I see you like this, I am so nervous that I can't say anything."
He took a deep breath and continued, "The video just now only showed a small part of the story I want to tell. I'll make it short. Hong Xiqi, I like you for a long time! I liked you very much yesterday, and I also like you very much today, and I I have a feeling that I will like you very much tomorrow and in the future!”
He felt like a bull was pounding in his heart, and his heartbeat accelerated rapidly, making his chest hurt. He closed his eyes again and took a deep breath. A drop of sweat dripped from his temples. He opened his mouth and shouted, "Do, be my daughter..." ··Eh! Eh!」
Before he could finish the last few words, Hong Xiqi stood up and grabbed his tie, turned around and strode out, "Why are you so disgusting! Mother-in-law and mother-in-law have been doing this for so long, come with me!"
Gu Yi held his tie with one hand, leaned forward slightly, trying to keep his breathing smooth, and staggered out of the classroom behind Hong Xiqi.
