Chapter 262: Teach Us!

The girl wore a white dress and a bright yellow sun hat, standing prettily beside the playground fence.

Some people, merely by standing there, become a scenery.

Standing behind her was another woman, holding a sun umbrella for her.

That woman was Yu Ningmeng. Yu Ningmeng was equally beautiful, but standing beside An Siyao, she inevitably became a foil.

Some students passing by wanted to approach, but were driven away by Yu Ningmeng’s sharp gaze.

“She’s here for you. Why don’t you go over?” Qin Youliang patted Xia Yu’s shoulder, his face openly showing jealousy.

It was precisely him who had told the classmates in their class, and the news spread to neighboring classes, that caused Xia Yu to receive such attention.

Xia Yu felt somewhat uneasy. Although during performances, there were more spectators than this, the emotions of the observers were completely different from what he displayed.

If he didn’t already know that An Siyao was just a little fool, Xia Yu would have thought she was the scheming type, deliberately showing him off to satisfy her vanity and win him over.

He walked toward An Siyao.

As he approached, Xia Yu also came under Yu Ningmeng’s sharp gaze.

Yu Ningmeng had been away from An Siyao’s side for these couple of days. Because An Siyao had entered university, she had some disputes with Yu Liang about whether she should continue being the head maid, and she had just returned at noon.

After returning, a maid told her that An Siyao had gone to school alone the previous day and only came back in the evening, which made her feel something was wrong. At 3 PM in the afternoon, she caught An Siyao trying to sneak out again. After some questioning, she learned that An Siyao was going to meet a boy.

She was extremely angry. Had she just relaxed a little during these two days, and upon returning, found An Siyao already taken away by a man?

It’s not that she opposed An Siyao dating, but two days was just too fast!

That boy must have used improper means!

Various unconventional methods flashed through her mind, and Yu Ningmeng couldn’t determine which one An Siyao had fallen for, so she came along to check things out.

When she arrived, she found out that the boy was actually someone she knew.

He must have used his familiarity to deceive my An Siyao!

Seeing An Siyao take a few quick steps forward and willingly take the boy’s hand, Yu Ningmeng’s gaze became even sharper.

Xia Yu didn’t mind Yu Ningmeng’s gaze. If he were Yu Ningmeng, upon seeing his raised young lady suddenly taken away by someone else, he might do something even more extreme.

Stretching her hand into Xia Yu’s palm, An Siyao raised her other hand, which held a bottle of mineral water.

Xia Yu took the mineral water and looked at the palm held by An Siyao, thinking about how he should open the bottle with just one hand.

He looked at An Siyao, and An Siyao looked at him too.

Two seconds later, the girl tilted her head, showing confusion.

“My hand,” Xia Yu gestured toward the hand held by An Siyao.

However, An Siyao didn’t understand. She stretched her free hand in front of Xia Yu.

Well, that would work too.

Xia Yu placed the water on An Siyao’s hand, freeing his own hand to twist off the bottle cap.

After opening the cap, Xia Yu was about to take back the mineral water, but An Siyao had already brought the bottle to his lips.

Facing the girl’s expectant gaze, Xia Yu couldn’t refuse. He took a symbolic sip before taking the water back himself.

Yu Ningmeng, following behind, felt her stomach ache. Holding hands and cooperating to open a bottle of water was already too much of a display, and now even feeding water!

Why did she have to watch her An Siyao feeding water to another man!

It wasn’t over yet. She followed the two around the campus for a round, and finally, at nearly six o’clock, used the excuse of it getting late to drag An Siyao, who wanted to follow Xia Yu home, away.

That evening, she reported the events to Yu Liang.

“How did they get together?” Yu Liang asked anxiously.

“The young lady said it was love at first sight.”

“But hadn’t Yaoyao known that boy for half a year already?” Yu Liang was puzzled. Was it love at first sight after being acquainted for half a year?

“I don’t know either.” Yu Ningmeng expressed her helplessness.

“Alright, you keep an eye on them for a few days. I trust you.” Yu Liang delegated everything to Yu Ningmeng, thinking that after finishing his current affairs, if his granddaughter was still with the boy, he would go have a look himself.

…

On the morning of September 3rd, Xia Yu had breakfast and came to school for military training.

There was nothing important during the day, and Xia Yu didn’t let his proxy take over. He was experiencing the training himself.

Looking at the familiar commands of attention, at ease, and marching in step, Xia Yu couldn’t help but recall his own military training days. Back then… he had obediently participated in the training and played games in the dormitory afterward, with nothing particularly memorable.

It was indeed a sad memory.

Sighing, Xia Yu began to feel bored. He thought about summoning his proxy to take his place.

Just then, the instructor announced a break.

Yi Shiyou, together with two classmates, went to the convenience store to buy water. On the girls’ side, four girls also went to buy water, led by a short-haired girl.

The short-haired girl was the candidate for the girls’ class monitor. Without any surprises, she would be the monitor.

The class had a total of thirty students, with eleven boys and nineteen girls. Yi Shiyou had no popularity among the girls. Even if all the boys voted for him, he would only have eleven votes.

If on the girls’ side, someone could compete with the short-haired girl and split the girls’ votes, Yi Shiyou might have a chance, but unfortunately, there was only one candidate on the girls’ side.

Boredom led Xia Yu to analyze the class situation, after which he planned to leave, but Qin Youliang and four classmates surrounded him.

These were classmates from the conservatory who had stood up for Xia Yu before. Although their help wasn’t necessary for Xia Yu, he still remembered their kindness.

“Brother Yu, teach us!” The five sat beside Xia Yu, their expressions serious. “We also want to find a girlfriend sooner rather than later. Not within an hour, but maybe within a day!”

“…I can’t really teach you that.”

“Brother Yu, you’re being modest. We’ve seen with our own eyes how the conservatory’s most anticipated campus beauty was completely captivated by you.” The five moved closer, clearly indicating that they wouldn’t leave unless Xia Yu taught them.

Xia Yu felt a headache coming on. If he were to tell the truth, he would have to teach them to first approach the girl physically, which was impossible.

“Everyone, come and get your water!” Yi Shiyou’s voice came over.

The water distribution allowed Xia Yu to escape from the five.

But the five didn’t forget or give up. After drinking the water, they followed Xia Yu again.

Xia Yu was already thinking about what kind of lie he could tell.

At this moment, the short-haired girl, who was the prospective class monitor from the girls’ side, came up to Xia Yu.
