Chapter 62
For a while, Qiao Shao was dazed before he could respond to He Shen’s meaning.
His heart gave a jump and he said, “Can you stop being so addicted to sweets!”
Even when I’m just making an analogy, you still ask whether it’s sweet or not. This person was hopeless!
He Shen propped his cheek on his hand, his eyes sticking to Qiao Shao’s face. “You mentioned it first.”
“I mentioned it so I’m to blame?” Qiao Shao knew him too well by now, and he took out a candy for him from his table drawer.
He Shen smiled and took the candy.
Qiao Shao then gave him a scare. “I’m telling you, if you keep eating so much sweets and staying up late, you should be careful of hair loss and becoming bald!”
He Shen: “…”
Qiao Shao looked at his handsome face and said, “Let’s see what you’ll do then!”
Being bald before one becomes an old man is definitely one of the most terrible things in this world.
He Shen was hit hard. “You’ll hate me.”
It was rare that Qiao Shao had the upper hand. He said cuttingly, “If you don’t take it easy, be careful or you might not even be able to take a wife!”
He Shen was stunned and asked him, “Is that possible?”
Qiao Shao continued to scare him. “In any case, if I were a woman, I wouldn’t marry a bald guy!”
He Shen sat up straight. “Do you like hair … well, healthy people?”
Qiao Shao rolled his eyes at him. “Of course.”
He Shen paused.
Seeing him like this, Qiao Shao thought he had hit him too much, and said, “Your hair is very good. As long as you don’t keep staying up late and eat less sugar, …”
He Shen interrupted him, “I’m relieved then.”
Qiao Shao: “?”
He Shen Shen obviously wasn’t worth being distressed for. He heard him say, “The issue of hair volume is more of a hereditary thing. Considering my immediate family members, I will not have trouble in this regard.”
Qiao Shao couldn’t keep up with his brain circuits.
He Shen looked at him and said, “You can rest assured and like me wholeheartedly.”
Qiao Shao’s heart burst out once again, he said, “What!”
He Shen winked at him. “Because even fifty years from now, I surely won’t disappoint you.”
Qiao Shao: “………………”
“What a mess!” Qiao Shao looked away. “The reason you dad’s hair is normal, must be because he doesn’t stay up late and isn’t a sugar-addict. Genetics is one thing, but proper personal habits are the key.”
He Shen said, “My father sleeps for only four hours a day, he has no sense of restraint and indulges in debauchery and excess&#k2026;”
He paused and continued, “In short, judging from his habit of courting death, Xie&#k2013;, um, the genes of this family are still very strong.”
When he said these words, his tone was very bland, as if he were talking about some other person’s matter.
Qiao Shao though was very engrossed in listening.
Is He Shen’s father such a terrible person?
They’ve known each other for this long but because of personal reasons, Qiao Shao rarely talked about his family matters.
He doesn’t talk about it, He Shen also doesn’t talk about it. This was the first time Qiao Shao was hearing about this…
Then again, if there were no problems with He Shen’s family, would he be living alone in a rental apartment off campus? Would he stay up all night trying to pay off the debt?
Would he go so far as to exhaust himself from working so hard when he isn’t even an adult yet?
Why was he so addicted to sweets?
Was it a sort of psychological comfort?
Qiao Shao regretted it.
He shouldn’t have mentioned these things that touched upon his scars.
Normally, He Shen seemed so outstanding, so formidable as to seem indestructible. But in fact, he was only a seventeen years old, a biggish youngster. He was just a man made of flesh and blood.
“I won’t hate you …” Qiao Shao took the candy back from his palm, unwrapped the candy, and stuffed it into He Shen’s mouth. “Even if you really do become He Shen the Bald, I won’t hate you.”
He Shen was shocked. The sweetness of the candy invaded the tip of his tongue, and Qiao Shao’s words took over his heart.
He had never experienced this before, this sweetness that went straight from his throat into filling his entire chest.
“Qiao Shao …” He Shen called out to him softly.
Qiao Shao was oddly embarrassed after he’d said it. He sat upright and said, “The teacher is here!”
He Shen: “Qiao Shao.”
Qiao Shao glanced at him from out the corner of his eyes. “Huh?”
He Shen propped his arm on the desk and tilted his head to look at him. “Qiao Shao …”
Qiao Shao’s face inexplicably flushed, and he fiercely said, “What’s gotten into you!”
He Shen chuckled, and did not speak again.
Qiao Shao didn’t dare look at him. His ears were itchy. He never knew that his own name could sound like this, as though it carried an electric current that struck against his nerve endings.
It’s been ten minutes since the teacher started the lecture but Qiao Shao hadn’t heard a single thing. Fortunately, it was an English class, and a bit of inattentiveness was nothing to him.
After completely recovering his senses, Qiao Shao remembered he had business to talk about.
He had been seriously discussing with He Shen about the Math Society!
He was sincerely asking him for advice!
As a result……
When did this conversation veer so much off course!
Qiao Shao finally moved his eyes that were staring fixedly at the blackboard to look at the person beside him.
There was plentiful afternoon sunlight and it came through from the gaps in the curtain. It fell on He Shen’s short black hair, making it look as if it were plated with gold. While asleep, his hair hung slack against his forehead. His narrow eyes were closed, and the thin lips under the tall nose bridge were slightly parted from the sluggishness overflowing from his bones.
Impeccable features.
Just a little more fragile than when he was awake.
——A Robinson without a Friday; a ghost wandering alone on an isolated island.
Qiao Shao’s heart twisted.
After two lessons, Qiao Shao woke him up. “Get up! Get up!”
Hasn’t this guy’s arm gone numb?
He Shen slowly opened his eyes when he saw Qiao Shao closed them again for a while.
Qiao Shao said, “Get up and have drink some water.”
He Shen: “No need.”
Qiao Shao said, “Then go to the toilet!”
The muddle-headed He Shen suddenly sobered up. “Together?”
Qiao Shao said dumbfounded, “Go together, my ass! I don’t need to go.”
“Oh …” He Shen lay down again. “Then I won’t go.”
Qiao Shao tried to convince him. “Are you a little girl? You need someone to go to the toilet with you?”
He Shen turned and gave him the back of his head.
Qiao Shao: “………” I can’t stand him! I really can’t stand him!
“Hurry up!” Qiao Shao poked him, “I’ll go with you.”
He Shen got up and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “Let’s go.”
For one, Qiao Shao wanted to drag this guy to exercise a bit and secondly, he wanted to talk to him about the S City High School Math League.
He Shen did not digress this time, and said seriously, “If I remember correctly, first years also participate in this league so the questions will not be too difficult.”
Qiao Shao calmed down a bit: “Oh.”
“En,” He Shen said, “you don’t have to be too nervous. It’s just a few high school math clubs playing around.”
Qiao Shao nodded: “So, that’s how it is.”
He Shen glanced at him and said, “And this is an online competition.”
Qiao Shao asked curiously: “Online?”
He Shen said: “All the participants are added into a group. They’ll find a weekend when everyone’s available and send out the questions. Everyone answers it within a limited time period and uploads it on time.’
This was unexpectedly the case!
Qiao Shao’s eyes lit up!
“Try it,” With a creak, He Shen pushed open the door, and walked into the toilet with him: “Come do it at my place.”
Go to He Shen’s?
Qiao Shao said: “He Shen Shen, are you seducing me …”
He hadn’t finished saying the words “to commit fraud?” when he slipped and He Shen caught him: “Be careful.”
Qiao Shao frowned: “I’ll go get a mop, and what if someone doesn’t pay attention and slips again?”
He Shen said: “I’ll get it.”
Qiao Shao: “No, I didn’t need to go to the toilet anyway.”
Who could have known that He Shen would also say: “I don’t need to either.”
What are you two doing in the toilet!
And at this time when the bell is about to ring!
Wei Blue Hair in the toilet cubicle didn’t dare go out at all!
He knew these two were together, but Wei Jiayu hadn’t expected to hear such a hot conversation!
——Come do it at my place.
——He Shen Shen, are you seducing me?
What the hell are you two talking about!
And “He Shen Shen” what the hell is with this nickname?
