After Vu Hy finished speaking, she didn't even bother to let the teacher reply, but turned around and walked straight back to her seat. Her face was still calm as if nothing had happened. When she walked past the person who had just caused her to go to the blackboard, Vu Hy glanced at him, her eyes were so cold that the other person was startled and shrunk his shoulders. Seeing that, she smiled happily in her heart, but on the surface, she didn't bother to pay attention anymore, just sat down in her seat.
Lam Trach Van saw her return, then leaned over and asked worriedly: "Are you... okay?"
Vu Hy glanced at Trach Van then turned away without answering, just nodded slightly to indicate that she was okay...
I looked at him then also turned away and withdrew my gaze, my heart silently saying a naive sentence: "Um okay... but it's really okay..!"
On the blackboard, after a few seconds of standing still, the teacher suddenly stopped and bent down to review the problem Vu Hy had just solved. The more he looked, the more he frowned, not because it was wrong, but because it was so right, and it was a new solution, so neat that even he was surprised.
The teacher looked down at her, then looked at the paper, and sighed in his heart:
"I've been teaching for so many years, this is the first time I've seen this way of doing exercises... and this way of doing exercises is really good and new..."
The teacher coughed and tapped his hand on the board: "Class, be quiet. Everyone copy the exercises. The classmate... he did it correctly."
The whole class was in an uproar, but the teacher didn't seem to care and turned his eyes to Vu Hy and asked: "Oh right, this classmate... I don't recognize your face? What's your name?"
Vu Hy looked up, his voice indifferent: "I'm Nhuoc Vu Hy."
The teacher adjusted his glasses, smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Uh... Vu Hy, you did very well on this exercise."
The teacher then withdrew his gaze and continued to lecture, despite some whispers about Vu Hy wondering why she was able to do it even though she had previously said her academic performance was poor.
After class, when almost everyone had gone home, I started to pack up my books and conveniently stopped by Vu Hy's table and said, "Hey, do you want to go home together?"
He looked up, was a little dazed, then nodded. His eyes were still calm as usual, but for some reason, I saw a hint of fatigue in his eyes. Before I could finish my thoughts, he turned to Lam Trach Van, looked at him, then turned to me, pointed at Trach Van, and said, "Can he go with me?"
I saw that and replied, "Okay," but in my heart, I was slightly wondering, as I walked, I thought, "Doesn't he hate this guy so much? Why does he want to go together? Could it be that his dog conscience has awakened??"
Trach Van silently followed behind and of course still stayed close to Vu Hy like a little puppy following its owner..
While walking, I couldn't help but tease him: "You were very nervous when you were on the board just now, right?"
He heard that and also raised his lips and said: "Oh really...so were you as nervous as when you called me mom in front of the class?"
I heard that and their eyebrows were skinshiped together and then argued back. We argued back, no one noticed the students' curious gazes looking at the trio of us. I was so excited to talk that I didn't even notice that Vu Hy had been holding Lam Trach Van's hand for a while. Trach Van, needless to say, was initially confused, then happy as if celebrating a festival, and held Vu Hy's hand tighter as if afraid she would let go and leave..
When I got to Da Uyen's place, I happily called out to the boy. Da Uyen heard me calling and happily packed up her things and quickly ran out with a bright smile. Seeing that, I also patted the boy's head and happily said: "Ah Uyen, did you make many friends today?"
"Yes... I'm very obedient to you, I made... a lot of new friends..." He replied, his voice filled with pride and anticipation of being rewarded by him... like a puppy, making me dumbfounded..
Then, as if to reward him, I patted his head and couldn't help but kiss him on the cheek, making Da Uyen blush at my sudden action. Seeing that, I just wanted to tease this boy a little more, wondering what he would become... not realizing that Da Uyen's expression was gradually changing, no longer shy like before, but becoming more sinister, that possessive gaze... really made people shiver..
But Vu Hy saw everything. She glanced over, slightly frowning, thinking: "That expression is a bit..." then she glanced over at Trach Van who was happily behind her, then she also withdrew her gaze.
She raised her hand to her mouth, coughed twice, then said: "This is the school, not your house. Are you trying to show off your affection in front of people?"
I paused, blushing: "Who would show off?! If you're talking about me, look at yourself!"
I pointed at his hand. Vu Hy looked at it, blinked: "Ah... I'm afraid he'll get lost, so I'm just holding it."
His voice was calm, but his face didn't look at me at all.
I almost choked: "Stop lying. If you're holding it, then say you're holding it, who's going to kill you?"
"Um, that's right." He replied calmly.
This time it was my turn to freeze, even Trach Van beside me froze for a few seconds.
Then, not understanding what was going on, he got angry and said: "Are you going home? Are you standing here arguing all the time?"
We continued walking. Along the way, I held Da Uyen's hand, still talking normally, completely ignoring Vu Hy and Da Uyen occasionally exchanging glances as if discussing something.
At the school gate, we separated. I led Da Uyen back to the dormitory, while walking, I listened to the boy tell stories about the whole day in class..
Back at the dormitory, I dropped down on the chair and sighed: "I'm so tired today..."
While I was grumbling, Da Uyen's voice rang out behind me: "Who were those two people just now?"
I turned around, still not realizing the hidden meaning in the question: "Ah, your friend. I'm probably only close to Vu Hy, as for Trach Van... not so close right now"
Before I could finish my sentence, Da Uyen suddenly hugged me. His head rubbed against the hollow of my neck, the warmth spreading out made me stunned.
I quickly patted his back: "Ah Uyen, let go of me... why are you suddenly..."
But before I could finish my sentence, he raised his face.
The slightly red eyes, carrying a bit of grievance, made my heart stop:
"You... were cold to me all day. I tried so hard but... you only looked at other people"
Ye Yuan's eyes were slightly red, her voice choked... but underneath was a very thin ray of coldness..
"You... don't love me anymore?"
I was blinded by beauty so I didn't notice Ye Yuan's strangeness and froze for a second. Then my heart softened when I saw his handsome face acting spoiled with me:
"How could that be. What are you thinking..."
I breathed lightly, finally not pushing him away but hugging him back, letting him rub against my chest like a sad little cat.
Ye Yuan's heart stirred slightly:
"He... doesn't resist my actions... could it be that he also...?"
