Chapter 39: Letter from Pen Pal
"Yu Liang, your letter!" Gu Si Cai waved the envelope in her hand, her eyebrows dancing with excitement, even more thrilled than Qiao An Yu Liang.
"Shh, keep your voice down." Qiao Anyu gave Gu Sichen a warning glance.
Gu Siqi suddenly stuck out her tongue and handed the envelope to Qiao Anyu.
"Who wrote this?" Qiao Anyu furrowed her brow and turned the letter over, examining it from every angle. Apart from the address and seat number on the envelope, there were no other clues. The handwriting was elegant, but she had no idea who it belonged to.
"Yu Liang, you're so outdated. This is what's popular these days. Haven't you heard of the term 'pen pal'? It means students from other schools close their eyes, randomly pick a number, write a letter and send it to make pen pals." Gu Siqi was clever and seemed to know everything.
"I'm not interested in making pen friends." Qiao Anyu threw the letter into the drawer, but Gu Sichen was anxious: "You have to respect the achievements of working people. Writing a letter also requires a lot of effort. This is out of line with international trends and will be eliminated." After that, she took out the letter for Qiao Anyu.
Qiao An Yu's smile froze: "Alright, let's learn from Xian and experience the world's trends." Then she opened the letter to read it.
"What's got you so entranced?" Shu Zimo's voice exploded above her head like thunder.
Qiao An Yu Liang hastily picked up the letter, not knowing how long he had been standing there, nor whether he had peeked at the contents of the letter. Although the pen friend named "Piao Xue" didn't write anything that couldn't be told to others, it was all official language such as "our fate", "hope to keep in touch" and so on, but the feeling of being peeped at was always very uncomfortable.
Qiao Anyu was furious in her heart. How could she not even notify him? She glanced at Gu Siyan with the corner of her eye, but it was frustrating to see that she was once again asking Xu Xiao questions, actually trying to get close to him. This guy who values appearance over friendship, how could he be so careless when making friends himself?
"Hey, woman, I'm not a peeping Tom, what's got you so tense?" Shu Zimo curled his lip in disdain, indicating he didn't bother sneaking a peek at her **.
Baldy Ban is the class teacher and also a math teacher. Because he's balding in middle age, and has a reputation for being inflexible, nobody likes him. This nickname originated from Gu Siqian's mouth, one day it accidentally slipped out, and soon became popular throughout the whole class, so everyone followed suit and started calling him that.
"But it's just handing in homework, putting it on the table is enough, why make a fuss and scare people." Qiao Anyu said with a cold face, dissatisfied.
"Don't do anything shameful, and you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door at midnight. Woman, have you done something to wrong me?" Shu Zimo said with a smile.
Why does this sound so ambiguous? Gu Siqi and Xu Xiao looked up at the person in question in perfect sync, but the two parties involved were completely unaware.
Gu Siqi is now Su Yuzhe walking over, trying to make eye contact with Qiao Anyu, letting her say a few less words, so as not to mislead Su Yuzhe again.
Qiao Anyu Lian waved her hand impatiently and said, "Hand in your homework quickly and leave, don't fly around me like a fly, I'll feel like a pile of dung."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yuzhe was already standing beside her desk, putting down his homework and smiling: "Did Zimo get on your nerves again?"
Qiao Anyu Liang was petrified on the spot. Xu Xiao had already turned around to stifle a laugh, while Shu Zimo looked down with an air of superiority. Gu Siqian shook her head and sighed. As for Su Yuzhe, Qiao Anyu Liang didn't dare to guess his reaction anymore.
She forced herself to calm down and smiled at Su Yuzhe, but in her heart, she scolded Shu Zimo from head to toe.
Waiting for the two to walk far away, Qiao Anyu felt like crying without tears. Every time she wanted to make a good impression in front of Su Yuzhe, but ended up making a fool of herself again and again. It was all because of Shu Zimo. Wherever he was, there would be trouble. Although he had helped her before... But because he had helped her once, did she think he was a good person? Was she thinking too naively? The world can change but one's nature is hard to shift. Shu Zimo was born to be her nemesis.
