Chapter 11 Drawing “In the eyes of the male student, there was anticipation: “The president can tutor me…”

Although those people didn’t do anything more to Jiang Luoyu on the surface, they still squeezed him behind his back and gossiped about him.

Fang Chuning couldn’t control these things, but seeing that Jiang Luoyu didn’t seem to care much, she felt a little more at ease. However, in the past few days, she discovered one thing – this person seemed to be a bit “clingy” to her.

Not only was it like this at school, but even after school, he would ask her where she was going.

“We are going to Tianyou City, what about it? Do you want to come too?”

Gao Qiong smiled, looking mischievous.

Jiang Luoyu’s face turned slightly red, “I don’t have anything to do if I go back so early, can I go with you?”

Fang Chuning had a strange expression, “We are going to the arcade, do you know how to play?”

The boy bit his lip and shook his head.

“Then what are you going with us for?”

Jiang Luoyu couldn’t answer. He couldn’t say that he just wanted to have a better relationship with them and become her boyfriend in the mouths of his classmates.

“Oh, don’t be so rigid.” Gao Qiong put her arm around her best friend’s shoulder and winked at the boy, “Since Jiang wants to join, then let him join. It’s just right for your President Fang to teach you how to play games. Maybe in the future, you can play together.”

Jiang Luoyu’s face turned red from her meaningful smile, and he looked at the person who could make the decision with anticipation.

Fang Chuning didn’t mind, “Then let’s go together.”

The boy instantly showed a happy smile, nodding his head cutely, “Mm!”

When the three of them packed up their things and were about to leave the classroom, someone suddenly called out to Fang Chuning from behind. She turned around, puzzled.

The boy stood behind them. He raised his hand to push his glasses, his honey-colored eyes staring at her intently, and kindly reminded, “About the rehearsal, are you free this afternoon?”

Fang Chuning then remembered the matter of revising the script and lines. She hesitated for a moment, “Or… change it to tomorrow?”

Xu Muzhou glanced at them and said tactfully, “If you are busy now, then let’s change it to tomorrow.” He paused for a moment, as if suddenly remembering, “But I may not have time tomorrow. Why don’t we talk about it in a few days?”

It would take a few days for such a small matter, but in a few days, time would be tight. Fang Chuning immediately changed her mind, “Then let’s do it today. Call the class monitor to come together and talk about it at my house.”

“The class monitor has something to do at home and has already left.”

Fang Chuning scanned the classroom and indeed didn’t see the class monitor. “Then let’s discuss it first, and tomorrow we’ll show the revised lyrics to her.”

After saying that, she said to the other two beside her, “You two go and play, I won’t go.”

Gao Qiong shrugged, “This is how a busy person is.”

Jiang Luoyu’s face looked a bit bad. If she didn’t go, what was the point of him going? “Then can I…”

He wanted to say, then can I go with you? But as soon as he spoke, the boy interrupted.

“Jiang,” the boy seemed a bit hesitant, “your grades on the last test have regressed a lot compared to before. I think if Jiang has time, you can review the day’s topics more. What does Jiang think?”

Jiang Luoyu’s grades had always been in the lower-middle level of the class. He knew that he had been a bit distracted in his studies recently, but it was inevitably a bit embarrassing to be told this, especially in front of the person he admired.

And the person he admired even nodded in agreement, “What Xu said is right. Your grades have dropped a lot recently. You need to work harder.”

Jiang Luoyu felt that at this moment, the boy’s gently smiling face was full of provocative malice, as fake as it could be. He was not convinced, so he said to the girl, “Then, can the president tutor me?”

“Huh?”

“If the president can help me, I think I can definitely improve my grades faster!”

The boy’s words were a bit straightforward. Fang Chuning, of course, knew that he liked her, but she found it a bit difficult to fulfill this request.

“But I don’t have time recently.”

“I can wait until the president is done with this busy period!”

As Jiang Luoyu said this, he quickly glanced at Xu Muzhou. The boy still had a gentle and harmless appearance, not showing a trace of anger at what he said, making him wonder if he was overthinking and Xu Muzhou didn’t actually have any intentions towards the president in that way.

“Let’s talk about it when the time comes.” Fang Chuning felt that helping someone study was such a serious matter and it would be difficult. What if she helped him study and his grades still didn’t improve? Wouldn’t that make her look like a failure?

“If Jiang doesn’t want to, I can help you study too.”

Gao Qiong said quite generously.

“Thank you, but no need…”

“It’s okay, we can start tutoring anytime, I have a lot of time.”

“Really, there’s no need, thank you Gao Qiong.”

Jiang Luoyu politely refused.

“Don’t be so polite~”

That shameless look made Fang Chuning can’t help but mock, “He’s not being polite, your grades are worse than his, what are you tutoring?”

Gao Qiong was the kind of person who had skin thicker than a city wall and didn’t feel embarrassed at all. She even pretended to be coy and bumped her bulging chest against Fang Chuning’s arm, saying in a coquettish voice, “Then you teach me and I’ll teach him~”

“Go eat shit!” Fang Chuning gritted her teeth and spit out a dirty word, fortunately this person could think of it, she didn’t have that much free time.

Jiang Luoyu, who witnessed the interaction between the two, blushed, and his eyes couldn’t help but sweep over the more impressive parts of the girl, and then he lowered his eyelids.

What he didn’t know was that when the two girls were joking around, Xu Muzhou’s expression, which had always maintained a shy and pure appearance, shattered for a moment, and the jealousy that flashed in his eyes was only because of the excessive intimacy between the two girls.

“Fang,” a low call attracted Fang Chuning’s attention. She saw that the boy’s beautiful brows and eyes seemed to reveal a hint of dissatisfaction because she was wasting time, “I have something to do later.”

“Then hurry up, you ride in my car and I’ll have the driver send you home later.”

Jiang Luoyu seemed to want to say something more, but Fang Chuning didn’t pay attention and walked out of the classroom shoulder to shoulder with the boy.

The boy’s shoulders drooped in disappointment.

“In my opinion,” Gao Qiong was a bit sympathetic and rarely gave kind advice, “if you are serious, I advise you to take back your heart. Ah Ning and you are completely from two different worlds. Even if you have a chance now, there will be no result in the future.”

The financial and power situation of the Fang family was not as simple as it appeared on the surface, not to mention that the Fang family also had a strong tradition of matching doors and households. The two could play around now, but it was absolutely impossible for them to be together in the future.

This was crystal clear to Gao Qiong, who had been familiar with the Fang family since childhood.

Jiang Luoyu’s face turned slightly pale, and he lowered his eyes in dejection. After biting his lip hard, he said softly, “I just… really like her.”

“Well, then work hard for it. Maybe you two can have a beautiful memory.”

After saying that, Gao Qiong comfortingly touched his slightly curly hair and left the classroom.

The classroom was empty, leaving only Jiang Luoyu standing at the door. He frowned, looking a bit unwilling. He had finally gotten a little closer to her, how could he give up?

As long as they were together, who could say for sure about the future?

Thinking this way, Jiang Luoyu’s heart loosened a bit, but soon he thought of Xu Muzhou, who was always standing between him and the president, and his mood instantly worsened again. Especially since the two had many opportunities to be alone together recently.

The more Jiang Luoyu thought about it, the more unsettled his heart became. He took a long step and quickly went downstairs. When he ran to the school gate, he just saw the car the two were in driving away.

In the car, Xu Muzhou, who was sitting in the back seat, inconspicuously glanced at the rearview mirror, his lips curving in a good mood.

Fang Chuning happened to see this scene and felt that her eyes were dazzled for a moment, it was very eye-catching.

She felt that Xu Muzhou was no longer as averse to her as before. In the past, whenever he saw her, he wouldn’t give her a good face, but now he actually agreed to go to her house.

Going to her house… The image of the two of them being in the same room flashed through Fang Chuning’s mind. For a moment, she didn’t know why she suddenly felt a strange emotion. They had known each other for so long, but this was the first time they were so “close”.

Even though she was in her own car, Fang Chuning felt a little constrained. She changed her sitting posture and secretly glanced to the side with the corner of her eye. Xu Muzhou was sitting by the car door, his eyes looking out the window, his face expressionless.

Fang Chuning took out a bottle of drink from the car refrigerator, “Do you want a drink?”

Xu Muzhou glanced at the drink handed over, “No need.”

Although his voice was light, it exuded a sense of coolness that didn’t want to say much. But he happened to have a beautiful and vulnerable face, so his cold face gave people a sense of contrast, making people’s hearts itch when they looked at him.

Fang Chuning retracted her gaze and silently pulled the ring of the easy-open can and took a sip.

The two didn’t speak again on the way. When they returned to the Fang family’s house, Fang Chuning had just entered the villa when she saw a boy holding a large piece of paper running towards her.

Su Qi stood in front of her with red ears, “Ning Ning sister, you’re back…”

“Mm,” Fang Chuning nodded and looked around, “Why are you alone?”

“Lili is in the studio, and Uncle went out for something.”

“Did he say what it was?” Fang Chuning felt it was strange. Dad was very strict about people. Whenever Su Qi came to their house, he would definitely stay at home, as if a little boy would steal something.

“Uncle didn’t say.”

“Oh,” Fang Chuning nodded, then realized the boy was still standing there, “Is there anything else?”

Su Qi’s lips curled into a faint dimple, and he handed the drawing paper to her with both hands, his dark and bright eyes looking at her shyly and expectantly, “This is what I drew…”

The boy said the first half of the sentence shyly and timidly, while the rest of the words were conveyed to her with those pitiful eyes.

“For me?” Fang Chuning took the drawing paper.

“Mm.”

The boy nodded with a red face.

Fang Chuning flipped over the drawing paper to look at the drawing on it. The drawing showed a girl sitting on a swing chair taking a nap. The boy had also carefully added the lush green scenery around, making the whole picture look vivid.

She looked at it carefully for a while, then turned her head and said to the boy in an almost boastful tone, “This is me!”

It was only then that Su Qi noticed the person behind Fang Chuning. He tilted his head slightly to look. The boy was as good-looking as the angels he had seen in fairy tales. The two of them standing together were like a match made in heaven.

Su Qi lowered his eyes in disappointment, and a sense of inferiority grew in his heart.

“Thank you, Qi Qi!”

The girl’s clear voice made him slightly dazed. Su Qi looked up at her, his chest heaving with youthful adoration, “No need to thank me…”

His voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
