He has told himself time and time again not to confuse him with the Lu Xiao he knows, who is seven years older.

But most of the time, he can’t help it.

He will be thrilled.

Will be possessive.

Lu Xiao’s possessiveness towards him is manifested in plain sight, open and honest.

And he hid it in his heart.

Sometimes he doesn’t seem to care, but in fact, he doesn’t see anyone having anything to do with him except himself.

Paranoid and obscure, he is even afraid that speaking out would scare him.

In the end, he couldn’t say what he wanted. He didn’t have the courage to ask Lu Xiao all over again, is it true that you don’t like girls?

He was afraid of getting a negative answer, and even more afraid of getting a positive answer.

**

Hua Wangchun called Ye Cheng to the office alone.

After several incidents in the teaching office, Ye Cheng was about to have ptsd in this place.

The air conditioner on the wall was changed from Haier to Midea, and the cooling effect seems to be much better than before. This is the only improvement.

Hua Wangchun made a cup of tea and poured him a glass of water, as if they had a long talk ahead.

“Xiao Ye, how have you and your father been recently?” He asked politely.

Ye Cheng didn’t say that Ye Gaoyang had returned to Shengzhou early, and nodded perfunctorily: “It’s okay.”

“No more conflicts, right?”

“No.”

Hua Wangchun sighed with relief: “That’s good, you are a good and considerate child, I believe you can get along with your father in the right way.”

It’s a pity he can’t, Ye Cheng thought sarcastically.

Hua Wangchun took a sip of his tea and continued, “I called you here today because I hope you can help the teacher and do something for your classmates.”

Ye Cheng pricked up his ears. He was a monitor who didn’t have much affection at ordinary times, and it was rare for Hua Wangchun to ask for him to help.

“You must also understand what happened in the last two weeks. The atmosphere in our class is really not optimistic.” He said earnestly, “I talked to a few classmates, but the results were not very good. So I’m asking you to replace me and have a chat with them.”

“Maybe they felt distant with me and are reluctant to tell the truth. But you are the monitor and their classmate, so they may be willing to tell you a bit more.”

Ye Cheng understood; he was looking for him to be a spy.

Hua Wangchun coughed twice: “Especially Lu Xiao, this child is so rebellious, to actually say such things in class. The relationship between the two of you was pretty good before, and he is the key person who needs help this time. I have to trouble you to have a good chat with him.”

“What am I going to talk to him about?” Ye Cheng didn’t realise that he still had such a task.

Hua Wangchun got up, took out a few pieces of A4 paper from the table, and handed it to him: “I have prepared a question outline for you, and the list is also on the front. You can just follow these questions.”

Ye Cheng glanced at the paper, and his face was immediately filled with black lines.

No.1 Lu Xiao (Key Target SSS)

Q

1: Are there any girls/boys you like in school?

If he answer a girl, go to Q2; if he answer a boy, go to Q3

Q2: What is the name of the class? Why do you feel good about her? Have you been in close contact?

Q3: Is it true that you say you like boys? When did you find out, why do you like that boy?

……

Ye Cheng put down the A4 paper: “Teacher, you are embarrassing me.”

Hua Wangchun knew that he had misunderstood, and waved his hands again: “I don’t mean to betray your classmates, and you don’t need to ask these questions secretly, just take the questions openly and record them, and say that I asked. ”

Ye Cheng became more and more perplexed: “Then they won’t tell the truth.”

Hua Wangchun sighed heavily and said, “This is a task given to me by the superior, and I have to follow. But do you know how they responded after I talked to these people?”

Lu Xiao replied to me, do you have any cigarettes? Jiang Jin said that he had hypoglycemia, and he went to the infirmary and never came back. And Li Junxiao, this kid, went to the toilet three times, and finally answered that he doesn’t like humans because he has a fetish.”

Ye Cheng: “…”

Hua Wangchun pointed to his forehead: “These few people, there is some problem here. I didn’t want to delay any longer, so I came to you for help.”

As the dean of the teaching office, it is impossible for him to spend all his time on these bastards.

Ye Cheng had to agree, “Okay, I’ll try my best.”

Hua Wangchun was overjoyed: “After this problem is solved, the teacher will invite you to dinner. I’ve been really busy these days.”

“Then teacher, you’re busy, I’ll go first.” Ye Cheng stood up.

Hua Wangchun hurriedly sent him to the door, finally feeling relieved.

Ye Cheng went back to the classroom. Everyone was self-studying, so it was fairly quiet.

He beckoned and let Jiang Jin come out into the corridor.

Many people looked over curiously, not knowing what he was going to do.

Lu Xiao leaned on his chair and looked out curiously.

Ye Cheng took out a pen and paper, leaned on the armrest and said tersely: “Take a few minutes for you, routine business, questionnaire survey.”

“Pfft, Brother Cheng, when did you change careers to become Hua Wangchun’s special agent?” Jiang Jin burst out laughing.

“It’s my duty, don’t laugh, be serious.” Ye Cheng asked helplessly, “The first question, do you have any boys or girls you like?”

Jiang Jin smiled: “Who do I like, don’t you know?”

Ye Cheng said without emotion: “Then I write about Jiang Yirong?”

Jiang Jin came back to his senses and hurriedly said, “No, no, you can’t write that, just write ‘not for now’.”

“Second question, have you been intimate with the opposite sex recently?”

This questionnaire is all about investigating the relationship between the students of opposite gender.

Only if they can answer well.

Ye Cheng just made the answer a little more beautiful, and in essence, still listened to their nonsense.

For example, Li Junxiao likes his next-door neighbor, and Tan Xiaoqi has a crush on his brother who has been in love with her for many years.

Only in front of Hua Wangchun did they not dare to make things up.

Before concluding the question, Tan Xiaoqi asked carefully, “Monitor, does everyone have to answer this kind of investigation?”

“Almost.” Ye Cheng replied while recording.

Tan Xiaoqi’s eyes brightened: “Then brother Xiao will also be asked these questions?”

Ye Cheng looked at : “You seem to be very curious.”

Tan Xiaoqi stammered: “Ah, I, I just asked casually.”

“If you don’t have anything, just go back and call out the next person.” Ye Cheng put away the paper and said coldly.

Tan Xiaoqi went in in a hurry.

Finally, it was Lu Xiao’s turn.

Actually, Ye Cheng was very reluctant to call him out, but it was his turn.

The people in the class were talking in low voices, and from time to time they looked at the two people outside.

Lu Xiao and him stood facing each other, the atmosphere was indescribably subtle.

Ye Cheng used a pen to draw on a piece of white paper, with a few words written on it.

“Have you been dozing off in class recently, can you understand the main points and question from the teacher?” he asked.

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said, “Why is it different from everyone’s question?”

Ye Cheng’s temple jumped; sure enough, he got in touch with Jiang Jin.

“Everyone’s question is different. You just answer whatever I ask.” He took out the power of the monster bestowed upon him and answered arrogantly.

“Oh—” Lu Xiao lengthened his voice, “reporting to the squad leader, I dozed off twice, and was caught zero times. The point is, I can understand some lessons, and some I can’t.”

Ye Cheng raised his head: “If can’t understand it, you won’t ask?”

“My deskmate can sleep even better than me, who do you want me to ask?” Lu Xiao stared into his eyes and asked back.

Ye Cheng tried to hold back, but not for long:

“I really can’t, you can ask the teacher, you can also… ask me.” He said.

Lu Xiao answered easy: “Really? Just yesterday you left me alone of the field, I thought you didn’t plan to interact with me anymore?”

Ye Cheng quickly brushed past this topic and said, “Next question, how is the correct rate of homework? Which subject is the weakest?”

“Tsk, I understand,” Lu Xiao touched his chin, “These are actually what you want to ask! not what Hua Wangchun asked you to ask.”

Ye Cheng was pierced on the spot, and his face quickly turned red.

“I’m only responsible for your study.” He said stubbornly.

Lu Xiao smiled and said, “Okay, what the monitor says is what the monitor says. My answer is half and half correct, and my English is the weakest, because I can’t learn from the monitor.”

Ye Cheng’s ears were red, and even the breath he exhaled was very hot: “Speak well.”

“I have answered properly, so what else do you want to ask? Regarding life, I can’t eat or sleep well. I haven’t played basketball for three days. I went back last night to see if the monitor thinks I was just messing with him. It’s over, after leaving the monitor, it seems that everything is not going well.”

Lu Xiao’s voice was low with a smile. There was no way he couldn’t eat or sleep well.

Ye Cheng took a step back.

Lu Xiao, who spoke in this tone and way, gave him a faint feeling of familiarity.

A long time ago, when Lu Xiao stopped treating him as a “fake enemy sent to the company by the old man”, and gradually started flirting with him, the way he spoke was the same as this.

——It’s like a peacock showing off his tail.

The obsidian-like eyes flashed with a wicked smile, the voice was deliberately lowered, and the corners of the mouth seemed to be upturned.

It is like telling the other party: I am not ranting, I am flirting with you.

Ye Cheng was alarmed, and he looked at him with a wary face.

Seeing his expression, Lu Xiao immediately showed a hurt expression: “I’m telling the truth.”

Ye Cheng’s heartbeat accelerated, and he quickly dismissed him: “Okay, now I know, I’m done asking.”

“This is the end of the question?” Lu Xiao’s eyes widened, pretending to be surprised.

“Do I have a good impression of a boy or girl? Why do I have a good impression? Why don’t you ask about these?” He said dissatisfied.

Ye Cheng secretly swore that Jiang Jin was finished, he will strangle him to death.

On the surface, he calmly said: “I said that problems vary from person to person, and everyone is different.”

“Really?” Lu Xiao was suspicious.

Ye Cheng: “Really, are you doubting me?”

“…I don’t dare.”

Ye Cheng stood there, quietly waiting for him to leave.

Lu Xiao hesitated for a moment, but still said, “Then If i have questions that I don’t know, I can ask you?”

Ye Cheng’s heart has been pounding since the beginning.

Hearing his words, he made a vague “um” sound.

Now there should be nothing more to say.

Before leaving, Lu Xiao seemed to have suddenly remembered something. He smiled at him and said, “By the way, you were jealous yesterday, I’m very happy.”

After speaking, he smiled and went back to the classroom.

Ye Cheng’s head buzzed, and his body shook.
