Gu Cheng hurriedly opens his mouth: “I promise, too, Mr . Deng!”
He looks at Ah Zhao and says firmly: “I promise that my feelings for her won’t become a burden for her nor a burden for me . I’ll work hard and you can look at my results . If I don't make any progress at the monthly exam, you can punish me all you want!”
Old Kai: “ . . . ”
He looks at Ah Zhao, then back at Gu Cheng and sighs suddenly .
“Well, you two go back to the cla.s.sroom now . ” He waves his hand .
When the two turns around, he adds: “I’ll tell you want . From now on, I’ll pay more attention to you two . If I find either of your results drop or any other bad behavior, I’ll inform your parents directly!”
Ah Zhao nods obediently while Gu Cheng is more naughty .
“Deal! Wait for our good news, Mr . Deng!”
Old Kai watches the two leave and the office sinks into silence again .
“I must be out of my mind . ” He rubs his forehead and sighs .
Perhaps it was due to the bright and firm eyes of the boy in front of him .
Well, I’ll believe them this once .
Ah Zhao and Gu Cheng walks together along the corridor .
“Why do you come?” Ah Zhao asks .
Gu Cheng turns to a tree outside the corridor . “I heard from Wen Zi that Old Kai asked you to the office and I reckoned it was probably because of me . I was the one who took you into all this . How could I let you be scolded because of that?”
Ah Zhao's lips curve in a smile . “Mr . Deng never scolded me . ”
Gu Cheng ruffles his hair . He looks a little irritated . “In a word, even if it was wrong, it was my fault and I should have been the one he asked for . ”
He suddenly stops and looks at Ah Zhao seriously . “Tang Zhao, wait and see . ”
“What?”
“I’ll let Old Kai and the others see that it's not a bad thing to have feelings for you and it won't affect my study . ”
The sunlight of midsummer s.h.i.+nes through the corridor and lights up half of the boy's cheeks . He tilts his head to dodge the burning sun and smiles:
“Falling for you fills me with joy and pushes me to be better . It's clearly the best thing in the world . ”
The first monthly exam of their senior year, Tang Zhao still sits safely at the first place .
Gu Cheng rises from the 680th place to the 400th place, which shocks all .
In the office, Old Kai looks at the transcript for a long time without a word .
The second monthly exam of their senior year, Tang Zhao still takes the first place while Gu Cheng climbs up to the 289th place .
Midterm exam of their senior year, Tang Zhao is at the first place, Gu Cheng the 201st place .
The most handsome boy of Second High changes his hair into a most convenient short style and turns darker and slimmer . The arrogance of a teen leaves his face and he’s more composed .
The story that Gu Cheng works hard only to win a smile from the girl in his heart is spread across the whole Qingyuan Second High School .
After he stops talking to those other girls, he wins more love from them than before .
Since women love men who are constant in love more than playboys .
But everyone knows that Gu Cheng has none other than Tang Zhao, the top student of the school on his mind .
Even the teachers of Second High leave them alone .
There are teachers who joke with Old Kai: “If all the students that are in relations.h.i.+ps are like these two, that would save us a lot of trouble . ”
Old Kai narrows his eyes at the transcript and smiles:
“Ah, how good it is to be young . ”
