♂?,,
Of course, the above words were only told to me by my roommate, and I didnt hear them personally. Maybe they just made up lies to flatter me, but when I heard it, I did feel a little flutter in my heart, although overall I didnt take it seriously. One time while eating in the cafeteria, a girl suddenly appeared beside me and said: "Youre Wang Hao, right? Xia Xue doesnt want to be your girlfriend, so Ill do!"
I had a mouthful of rice that I hadnt even swallowed yet, and I stared at this audacious girl in astonishment. To be honest, if it werent for her appearance being too intimidating, I would have agreed on the spot. Its been so long, but this is still my first time being confessed to!
I made up some excuses, saying that my favorite was only Xia Xue, so I apologized and whatnot. The girl turned to her companion and said: "This Wang Hao is indeed a sentimental fool, I didnt misjudge him, I will continue to pursue him!" I hastily retreated with several people around me.
With these repeated experiences, I am convinced that I have already become a celebrity in the city. In order to make Xia Xue realize that she actually loves me, not some popular idol Su Xiao Bai, my plan must also be executed quickly, and I have been searching for the next target in the past few days. On this day, while eating in the cafeteria, I and several people around me had just chosen a seat and sat down, when I looked up and saw a girl sitting opposite us. My heart was like being electrocuted, with a face that was not inferior to Xia Xues, and she looked very pure and elegant, with gentle movements while eating. The girl seemed to recognize me, and after seeing me, she actually shrunk back, as if deliberately keeping her distance from me.
It seems my reputation isnt very good.
Although its just taking advantage, I also cant be humble. Such a beautiful girl is pleasing to the eye. After many things happened, my confidence has increased a lot, and my courage has become very big. I asked directly: "Do you have a boyfriend?"
The girl said unnaturally: "No."
"Hmm." I nodded and didnt say anything else, lowering my head to eat.
The girl ate and then hurried away, I immediately instructed the person next to me: "Help me find out who this is."
"Has Hao Ge taken a liking to her again?" Liu Zihong chuckled: "Dont worry, Ill take care of this matter."
Liu Zihong indeed handled things efficiently and had already helped me find out the information in the afternoon. The girls name is Taozi, also a first-year student. Logically speaking, with her outstanding appearance, she shouldnt be unknown, but according to Liu Zihong, Taozi is very low-key and doesnt have much contact with others, mostly just staying in the classroom. At first, there were many people who bothered her, but she was very cold towards boys, always with an indifferent and icy expression, so eventually no one bothered her anymore. I listened to this and felt that this girl named Taozi is indeed not bad.
Due to my limited time, I also acted quickly. That afternoon, I ordered a bouquet of roses and hand-wrote a love letter. Not to brag, but based on my literary skills, even if she didnt necessarily fall in love with me, the impression of this love letter would definitely be very deep.
I handed over the rose and love letter to Liu Zihong in front of everyone (including Xia Xue), "Brother, help me take care of it properly."
"Alright, Hao Ge." Liu Zihong slipped away in a flash.
The class immediately boiled up, and many people gathered around. "Which girl in the class did Brother Hao take a liking to?" "Brother Hao is taking action, one can top two!" "Brother Hao is really awesome, I dont have your courage!" "I saw it, we bumped into each other at noon in the cafeteria, Brother Hao acted too quickly!"
I was joking with the crowd, casting a sideways glance at Zou Yang behind me. Zou Yang has been down in the dumps these days, unable to muster any enthusiasm for anything, and even our class advisor asked him if he wanted to step down as class president. But I didnt want to see him anymore, so my eyes quickly darted towards Xia Xue. After class, Xia Xue sat down beside me, pouting and saying: "You said you liked me just the other day, now youve changed your mind? Why are boys so fickle?"
I secretly smiled to myself, this plan is already showing some effect, so I pretended to be nonchalant and said: "I already have a boyfriend, its not like Im always bothering you or anything. This afternoon I saw a girl, she was really beautiful, my little heart immediately started racing."
"Is it?" Xia Xue said with a sour tone: "Prettier than me?"
"Two are equally brilliant, neither is superior to the other." I laughed haha.
"Alright, good luck in your pursuit of success." Xia Xues tone sounded somewhat helpless.
I ignored her and lowered my head to continue writing a love letter to Peach, filling the page with cheesy words. In reality, I was writing it for Xia Xue to see. Xia Xue indeed couldnt help but sneak glances at me, occasionally saying: "Unbearable, unbearable, how can there be someone so cheesy in this world?"
"This is romance." I said seriously: "Last time in front of the teaching building, confessing to you was enough to prove my romantic nature. That was risking being expelled, and escaping from Ear Slap Kings hands wasnt easy." Since that time when I came out of the administration office, Ear Slap King never bothered me again, and the school didnt have any further opinions on the matter, letting me pass through several days in trepidation.
"Great, great, the most romantic." Xia Xues tone was still sour: "However, which girl has such a boyfriend, its her good fortune from her previous life. Unfortunately, I love Su Xiao Bai, otherwise we could be together."
"Hmm. I thought to myself, let her know that the one who loves is actually me. I didnt say anything, lowered my head and wrote my own love letter. My purpose was very clear, it was just to make Xia Xue jealous, to let her know how much she actually loves me."
After class, Liu Zihong ran excitedly to my side and said happily: "Hao Ge, Taozi asked me to find you!"
Xia Xue said sarcastically beside her, "Wow, youre making progress so quickly! Nowadays girls are really not reserved!"
”
Although it was to intentionally annoy Xia Xue, I still felt quite happy when I heard the news. After all, Taozi is also a little beauty and not easy to get in touch with. I stood up and bid farewell to Xia Xue, then rushed out of the classroom and ran towards Taozis class. There were not many students left in the class, and they all looked at me with surprise when they saw me. I ignored everyone and sat down beside Taozi, happily saying: "How about it, beauty? Be my girlfriend?"
I dont really like peaches, so I didnt mince words either. Whatever came to mind, I said it, a complete image of a romantic rogue.
Taozis face suddenly turned red: "How can this person talk like this?"
"Huh?" I said: "I wrote a love letter, sent roses. If you dont mean it, then dont tease me. Im genuinely thinking of being with you, how about giving me a chance?" I found out that I still have quite a talent for telling lies.
"Cant you be slower?" Taozis face was still red, like a ripe and juicy peach.
"Alright, lets just take it slow then." I reached out to hold Taozis hand: "Lets just hold hands tonight and not do anything else."
As soon as my hand touched Taozis hand, Taozi suddenly broke free with a shock and stood up: "Ah!" "What a rascal!"
Punk? Heh, although Ive never been able to accept this title, it seems that my words and actions are indeed no different from those of a punk. I propped up my chin with one hand, and said ambiguously: "Hm, so what do you want? Why did you call me over?"
Taozi sat back again and said seriously, "Its like this, I noticed that the love letter quoted a lot of Shakespeares poems. Do you have any knowledge about Shakespeare? How many of his books have you read?"
I stared at Taozi in astonishment. In the love letter I wrote, I indeed quoted quite a few of Shakespeares sonnets. I thought Shakespeares lines were beautiful, so I casually wrote them into the love letter, which can be considered plagiarism. However, I thought that in todays era, who would still read Shakespeares works? So I thought Taozi would definitely be moved by my literary talent. Who knew this was a mastermind, and at a glance, she saw that those poems were from Shakespeare!
"Dont look at me like that." Taozi said with some embarrassment: "Im very interested in Shakespeares works, but for some reason I just cant get into them. Some of the works are so long and boring, I just cant see where the beauty is. So Im also anxious, thinking of finding an expert to ask whats going on. Seeing you effortlessly write Shakespeares love poems into your own love letters, its clear that you must have a very deep understanding of his works!"
During the three years of being ostracized in junior high school, only books accompanied me. Peach asked about this, and that was really asking the right person. I immediately said with pride: "Of course, Shakespeares four great tragedies: Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, Macbeth, as well as his four great comedies: A Midsummer Nights Dream, The Merchant of Venice, Twelfth Night, As You Like It, I can recite them fluently. But to be honest, I think Shakespeares tragedies are more touching. However, these are not as moving as his 154 sonnets!"
Speaking of which, I have a lot to say. If it werent for these books, I really dont know how I would have gotten through those difficult days.
"Can you tell me in detail?" Taozis expression was very urgent, and her eyes looking at mine also had a hint of admiration.
"Of course!" I was naturally delighted, finally meeting someone who also likes Shakespeares love poems. Its a great opportunity to show off the things Ive figured out on my own. These topics were never discussed with Xia Xue before, although she is smart and studies well, unfortunately, she doesnt really like reading extracurricular books.
"Hmm, thats great." Pomme said with a smile as she pulled out her notebook, apparently ready to take notes. She chuckled and added: "I didnt expect such a little rascal to be so cultured, it really makes me look at you in a new light!"
"Why cant a hoodlum have culture?" I suddenly remembered my identity, Im a reckless and unruly hoodlum, not a bookworm who spends all day buried in books. So I immediately put on a bad boy expression: "Want me to tell you about it? Well, its possible. But the condition is that you have to be my girlfriend." I lightly tapped the table, smiling at her.
I think I must look like a complete little rascal now.
Taozis face turned red again, and she lowered her head without saying a word.
"Think about it." I stood up and said, "Come back when youve figured it out, and Ill dig out the stuff from my belly. Ive studied Shakespeare for over a decade, how can I just casually talk about it to outsiders?" Later on, this sentence was naturally bragging, actually I havent even read through all of Shakespeares works, only some of his more famous ones. As for the 154 sonnets, I had only glanced at seven or eight of them, but since Im naturally interested in these things, I remembered them effortlessly and could quote some from memory.
After finishing speaking, I stood up and was about to leave.
