Yang i was packing her stuff when she heard a knock on the door. She turned her head to find Lu Xuan standing at the door of the class.
“Co in, ” Yang i smiled. “The school is over. I was about to leave. If you hadn’t co on ti, I would have left. I thought you forgot about your laptop.”
Lu Xuan scratched his head. It wasn’t that he had forgotten about taking his stuff from her. It was just that he knew that she liked to eat sothing when school got over. For that thing only, he went to the school cafeteria to buy sothing for her.
“The maths teacher took extra ti, ” Lu Xuan said with an embarrassed smile. Oh, he couldn’t tell himself that the maths teacher had to leave class early because of so personal matters. He just spends all this ti selecting sothing for her to eat.
“Oh yeah, I heard you are in class A of Eleven grade. The teachers always take extra ti, ” Yang i said with a nod.
“Umm…how do you know?” Lu Xuan ended up asking.
“My dad works in this school and I got admission here through a special quota, ” Yang i explained. “That year, I had won a music competition and Jingyuan High accepted my admission form because of that reason alone. I wasn’t in the top class because I was quite average in my studies. But you are in class A of eleven grade, it ans you are good in studies.”.
Lu Xuan only smiled. It was good that she only knew good things about him. She must not know about his dark history in Jingyuan High school. What if soone told her that he was a gangster in the school? His eyes widened in fear. No, no, she couldn’t know this.
He had an urge to smack himself. Who had asked him to be a gangster?
Since he already was a gangster and there was nothing he could do about it. He could still stop people from badmouthing him on the school forum or before her, right?
“This is your laptop, ” Yang i said as he handed him his laptop. “Why did you bring it to the class? Try leaving these things at ho. What if you lost it? Your laptop looked quite expensive.”
“Okay, ” Lu Xuan agreed but he was already thinking of leaving sothing at music class.
“This is for you, ” He handed her a burger and bottle of juice.
“What’s the need of that?” Yang i asked.
“You helped , ” Lu Xuan imdiately said.
“No, I can’t accept it, ” Yang i said with a smile.
“Please, Miss Yang, ” Lu Xuan insisted. “My dad gifted this laptop on my birthday. If I had lost it, I would be very sad, after all, it’s sothing my dad gave with a lot of love and blessings. You don’t realise the gravity of the situation if I had lost it. I can’t thank you enough. Please accept my gratitude in the form of this burger and juice. Please.”
Seeing how the boy was so sincere, Yang i didn’t have the heart to say no to him. Wasn’t it just a burger and juice? She should not break the heart of a child, right? As an elder, she should set good examples.
“Then, I will have to thank student Lu for this, ” Yang i smiled as she took the burger and juice bottle.
“Student Lu?” Lu Xuan looked here and there as if he was looking for soone here. “Are there other students too?”
Yang i laughed. “No, I an I have to thank you, student Lu Xuan.”
Although she found a middle ground, he was still happy about it.
“Miss Yang, can I ask you about the music competition you are preparing students for?” Lu Xuan asked her.
Yang i got excited. She sat on the chair while he took the desk next to her and explained him about the music competition that the students were preparing for. She was explaining with great enthusiasm, making gestures with her hands and she looked so passionate about her work. He had never found anyone more beautiful than this woman. She looked like a goddess when she talked about music.
While she was explaining, he was sitting here with his elbows on the desk and his chin placed on his palms.
He didn’t care about being an idiot at this mont.
“Student Lu Xuan, can you dance?” Yang i asked.
Lu Xuan, who was in a daze, was blinking his eyes from ti to ti.
“You can?” Yang i asked again. When she realised that he was lost sowhere, she waved her hand before him. “Student Lu Xuan? Student Lu Xuan?”
“Yes?” Lu Xuan ca out of his trance when he heard his voice again.
“Excellent!” Yang i clapped her hand. “Since you can dance, why don’t you join the students in the competition? Apart from the musicians, we need a group of dancers for the competition too. Why don’t you co to in the morning and I will give you a form to sign?”
Lu Xuan blinked his eyes. Dance and him? He didn’t recall dancing anyti in his life. How could he dance? No, he couldn’t dance at all!
What if he danced and she realised that even a monkey danced better than him?
No, no, he couldn’t do it.
He couldn’t drown his ship before coming into the water. He had to do sothing. He had to say no before he could make a fool out of himself.
“Please, Lu Xuan, ” Yang i added when she saw the complicated look on his face. “We really need help at this mont.”
Only now did Lu Xuan understand what it ant when soone said that a pleading tone of a woman could bring the King of the world to its knees. Imagine, what would happen if the woman pleading was as beautiful as an immortal fairy.
“Okay, Miss Yang, ” Lu Xuan found himself saying with a smile that suggested his spring had arrived.
‘You are screwed, Lu Xuan. You are so much screwed.”
