Chapter 17 It was so embarrassing

Chen Cui went out.

“…The food will get cold.” Lu Xi squeezed out a few words without embarrassment. “Let’s eat.”

Zhou Sisi was speechless.

After eating dinner, Zhou Sisi placed the tableware on the table, and Lu Xi tidied up the dishes as usual.

Now he was much more proficient in the work than he had been at the first time.

“It’s done.” Lu Xi wiped his hands with a napkin. “I’m going back.”

“Did you forget, tonight is scheduled for physics?” Zhou Sisi said.

Seeing that her mood was not quite right, Lu Xi thought he could escape a section: “…Oh.”

“The key to force and mechanics is to understand the three forces of elasticity, gravity, and friction, the two models of leverage and pulley ….”

Zhou Sisi’s side face was quite beautiful, with dense long eyelashes along with the shadows slanted over her lower eyelid and the bridge of the nose.

After the class began, she was so absorbed that she seemed to have forgotten about her previous incident.

As a result, Lu Xi’s concern that occupied a third of his chest had dissipated a lot.

He didn’t know anything about her relationship with her mother, and it was hard for him to ask.

Zhou Sisi: “What are the characteristics of the structure for the labor-saving lever?”

Zhou Sisi: “Answer? The power arm—”

“…The power arm is larger than the resistance arm.” Lu Xi hooked his ear with his long fingers.

“What are the characteristics? Give a few application examples?”

⸙ ⸙ ⸙ 

As the senior high school entrance examination approached, the head teacher Lao Zhuang became strict with the students.

Including the day, students were not allowed to wander off the campus at noon and must take a nap within the dormitory.

It was hot, and Lu Xi didn’t like to run over the wall to go outside.

So he simply would lay in the dormitory with air conditioning.

The dormitory instructor went through the round, and the “Sentinel” classmate who was in bed by the window signaled that the alarm was lifted.

A talkative fellow took the lead and brought along a couple of roommates to join the chat.

In addition to games, eight out of ten topics that adolescent boys focused on in private were from the opposite gender.

“Did you see it during the break today? Gong Yao ran across the patio of the teaching building, with those thin arms and long legs, that was amazing.”

“I don’t believe you only looked at the arms and legs, but you definitely looked at the other prominent parts, right?.”

“What prominent parts I don’t understand, president Huang, don’t insult me with your dirty brain.”

“I didn’t say anything, you’ve got it all wrong, I mean the face.”

“Damn it.” The chatterbox cursed, rolling a small ball of tissue paper and smashing it at him.

As a result of his poor aim, it was thrown onto Lu Xi’s bed located in the lower bunk.

“I’m sorry Brother Xi, I’m sorry – ouch!” The chatterbox covered his cheeks that were hit by the small paper ball.

Lu Xi raised his eyebrows at him lazily and continued to play mobile games.

“You play cheap, if you talk about something then you should just move your mouth. It’s against morality to move your hand.” Huang Zhou laughed.

“Hey… Brother Xi’s shot is really ruthless.” Chatterbox rubbed his face. “Where did I just say? Oh Gong Yao’s face, it’s beautiful like Yujie Faner.”

The dorm head had a different view: “Generally speaking, a low version of Wang Ou.”

“The recognized school flower, Gong Yao, is average?” The chatterbox was not convinced as he interjected, “Don’t say something unusual?”

Dorm head: “I didn’t pay much attention to this.”

The chatterbox: “Then you know what Gong Yao looks like?”

“Her school skirt was cut short and last time she was stopped by our student union council.” The dorm head paused. “There is a senior sister who looks okay.”

“Which one? Zhou Sisi?”

“Sisi Senior Sister?”

Chatterbox and Huang Zhou said at the same time.

The dorm head said: “It seems to be the name. About 1.6 meters tall, with white skin and a ponytail.”

“That’s right, Sister Sisi.” Huang Zhou slapped his thigh.

“Do you have any photos?” Huang Zhou’s neighboring bed to the south asked.

He usually studied with his head down, a relatively simple person, rarely participating in the dormitory sleeper sessions.

“Fuck, you bookworm also like to look at beautiful women?” Huang Zhou came a little more excited.

“Who doesn’t love beautiful women, it’s man’s nature.” Chatterbox said. ” There was a post that had a long-distance photo of her profile, but it was deleted before I could save it.”

“However, Zhou Sisi’s figure is probably not as good as Gong Yao’s, but her temperament is good. Gong Yao has long legs and a curvy figure, her chest is more than B.”

“It’s hard to say, Sister Sisi usually wears loose clothes, just in case her chest…”

Along with the sound of “fuck”, Lu Xi kicked Huang Zhou’s beadboard. “Don’t you want to sleep?”

“I almost got shaken.” Huang Zhou looked down at Lu Xi. “Let’s go to sleep after a chat, what’s the hurry. Ah, you said that elder sister Sisi doesn’t look very good, but Xiang Yinglan is okay—”

“Do you guys think that Ah Xi should correct his aesthetics?”

When he was lying on his back, he flipped over and said: “No, Brother Xi, Xiang Yinglan has a big nose and thick lips. Why is she beautiful?”

“I think Xiang Yinglan is very ordinary.” The bookworm said honestly.

Lu Xi was annoyed. “There is no need to talk about the appearance of girls, why don’t you look at yourself in the mirror first?”

Several boys in the dormitory… Handsome Xi made sense and dared not speak.

“Don’t slap your face down, take it back.” Lu Xi pulled the corner of his mouth, “Huang Zhou, haven’t you heard what Qian Zhongshu said, ‘For ugly people, it is cruel to look closely’?”

“Don’t force me to be cruel to you.”

Huang Zhou, who failed countless times, said, “…Damn.”

“Sisi, you should sign up for the campus ambassador!” Yi Ting came across the two groups and tugged at Guo Qin’s draft. “Make a seat for me and let Sisi and I catch up.”

A few days ago, Wu Lan adjusted the class seating and made a lot of changes, including the pair of Yi Ting and Zhou Sisi’s desks being split up.

Zhou Sisi’s new tablemate Guo Qin was not too happy. “I haven’t finished my notes yet.”

“You’re welcome at my seat. There’s an academic committee at the same table where you can discuss the problem. Hurry up and go!” Yi Ting urged.

Guo Qin, who was dragged up, muttered. “I’d rather ask Zhou Sisi…”

“Don’t linger,” Yi Ting pushed her vigorously. “Go, go!”

“Please!” Guo Qin left, Yi Ting patted the chair and desk with the draft, and sat down. “Sisi Sisi!”

“I’m here.” Zhou Sisi felt helpless.

Yi Ting blinked. “Have you signed up for the campus ambassador audition?”

Zhou Sisi: “No.”

“Hurry up and sign up, the deadline is this afternoon! I have the registration form on my phone, let’s go print it.”

“I don’t want to apply.”

“Eh, then I will help you sign up?”

Zhou Sisi shook her head. “I won’t take part in these.”

“Why? But if I have the face of you, no, but…as long as I have 60 percent of your face, I will definitely walk sideways to sign up!” Yi Ting said.

“It’s too exaggerated.” Zhou Sisi was indifferent. “This project means nothing to me.” She didn’t like having her photos on public platforms, and she didn’t think she was that good-looking.

“How can it be meaningless! The campus ambassador represents the face of our No. 3 Middle School. Think about it, the photo is placed on the front page of the official website of the No. 3 Middle School, and how proud would one feel!”

“This not only lets you realize your self-worth but also represents the teachers and students in No. 3 Middle School, your — hey, where are you going? Are you signing up? Let’s go to the printing room to print……”

“Going to the office,” Zhou Sisi smiled and finished her sentence, “to find the teacher to talk about the competition.”

***

It was the last weekend before the midterm.

Zhou Sisi didn’t lecture Lu Xi, asked him to summarize and review by himself and ask questions if he had any doubts. 

At this time, Xu Xuelin arrived. “Sisi, Lu’s father is calling, can you let Lu Xi stop for a few minutes?”

She respected the little tutor Zhou Sisi very much.

“Yes.” Zhou Sisi said hurriedly.

Like Xu Xuelin, Lu Xi’s father, Lu Xiangyu was a doctor, who had been practicing for many years. This year in January, he was selected for the African Medical Assistance Team and set off for Nigeria to serve as a foreign aid mission for one and a half years.

Conditions in Africa were far worse than in China, and it was not easy for Uncle Lu to contact his family. Zhou Sisi guessed that he should be remembering that Lu Xi was going to take the high school entrance examination, so he made a phone call to take care of him during his busy schedule.

Lu Xi’s performance was on the rise from April, judging from the monthly test, the first model, and the second model. However, it was still a little far from the admission scoreline of the high school department of Huali No. 3 Middle School…

She pressed her forehead, Lu Xi’s parents were nervous about his high school entrance examination, and even she was a little nervous, but he himself was the least concerned.

After waiting for a few minutes, she got up from the chair and walked to the window.

Inadvertently, she caught a glimpse of a book at the corner of the wall under the thick curtain that was a few centimeters away.

Thinking it was Lu Xi’s book that had fallen here, she approached and bent over to pick it up.

This …… Zhou Sisi’s action of getting up stalled and her eyes fixed on the book in her hand.

To be precise, it was a magazine that was moderately thick.

On the cover, there were island characters scattered all over the place, with clear pictures: short wooden houses, stacks of gray stones, and a young woman standing with her back in the hot spring, there was not an inch of a strand(unclothed), holding the breast a perfect curvy figure turned back.

“My mother called you to eat fruit—fuck!” Seeing the scene in front of him, Lu Xi rushed over in three steps and swiped away the photo magazine.

Fuck. This… Lu Xi had the idea of ​​opening the glass window and jumping out immediately.

It was so embarrassing that he was about to break through the sky.

“This rubbish is not mine and has nothing to do with me, but Huang Zhou, my classmate, stuffed it into my school bag!”

Lu Xi finished with the fastest speed of his life in one breath.

Zhou Sisi nodded. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to take this magazine.”

“……” Lu Xi extraordinarily hoped that a thunderbolt would come and split his memory with Zhou Sisi and cause amnesia.

“Reading these books at your age is quite…”
