Oh, My Dear! Chapter 23 What Shi Xi gave Guo Zhi
Shi Xi on the gra.s.s behind the gym, it was concealed and quiet so crowds would be unable to notice and the sunlight will be unable to shine through. His pessimism seems to be innate penetrating from his body to outside his body but with fatal temptation.
He always chose a fixed place like the gloomy stairs that lead to the attic in senior year, alone he just wanted to be alone. People are always afraid of being lonely and they do everything possible to get rid of the loneliness but Shi Xi needs to be lonely. He leaned against the window and concealed that most good looking face underneath the brim of the cap. The pen in his slender finger was moving very fast on the paper, finally the ink was used up. He looked at the pen and then threw it.
Shi Xi tilted his head back against the wall for a long time, he felt out his phone from his bag and dialled a number placing it next to his ear.
"Shi Xi!"
He called his name so familarily, it was always filled with antic.i.p.ation and delight.
"Pen." Shi Xi just said a word.
"Where are you?"
"Behind the gym." After speaking Shi Xi hung up the phone.
Not a while later, Guo Zhi who was short of breath came over with a big pile of pens: "Is it enough?" Shi Xi selected a pen from Guo Zhi"s hand and did not speak, he continued to write things. Guo Zhi put the remaining pens back into his own bag, he held a book to read whilst sitting far away from Shi Xi and he even went as far as to not make a sound with great care.
Guo Zhi isn"t noisy and excited, he is naively quiet and he enjoys enthusiasm.
From the first time when he started to be acquainted with Shi Xi, he never disturbed when Shi Xi writes novels. From the very beginning he would sit on the staircase and wait for him and now he was sitting in the garden and waiting for him, up until now Guo Zhi has been waiting at Shi Xi"s side quietly.
He wants to be lonely and Guo Zhi will leave him alone.
Shi Xi lifted his head, his sight was put onto Guo Zhi. He even smiles when reading a book as if the book was full of joyful matter.
The bell rang, lunch break ended. Guo Zhi stood up patting the dirt on his trousers: "Then I"ll go to cla.s.s."
"Guo Zhi, you treating me in such a way, do you want me to be together with you?" Shi Xi"s face was expressionless just asking a question.
Guo Zhi shook his head: "No, no I never thought about it. I understand very well that I and you are a man, I understand very well that you are not the same as me." Guo Zhi was no longer the same as before, in the past when mentioning this he would feel sad and hurt, he would think of the wounds in his body. He is accepting that he is special, acknowledging that he is not the same. He smiled, this is the expression that seems to never disappear on his face: "I am kind to everyone but only you just because I like you." Guo Zhi had only just realised what he had said after speaking, he ran away quickly.
"Like?" Shi Xi looked at the pen in his hand and whispered.
Boys were in the cla.s.sroom enthusiastically talking to the most beautiful girl, Guo Zhi was in his own seat attentively reading. Guo Yiqi a girl that was sat next to him using her books to stabilize the mirror to brush her eyelashes, she used her elbow touch Guo Zhi: "Oh right, what is your name?"
"I"m called Guo Zhi." Guo Zhi politely said, this is a new cla.s.s and everything is unfamiliar despite it being arrangements or cla.s.smates.
"Guo Zhi right? Lend me your notes." The girl did not look at Guo Zhi she only brushed her eyelashes using the mirror. She doesn"t care about Guo Zhi, she only cared about whether the new mascara"s result was thick or not.
"Okay." Guo Zhi gave her his notebook, the girl put her mirror away after a long time then she placed her finger on her lips and licked it using her fingers full of saliva to turn the pages in the notebook. She suddenly picked up a flower from the book: "This flower is really beautiful."
"That, flower, don"t move it!" Guo Zhi hurriedly said. That dried-up flower was easy to splitt.
"Give it to me?" Guo Zhi Qi made a cute face and blinked her eyes. Usually men would fall for her trick but only Guo Zhi didn"t, his eyes were anxiously looking at the flower: "No, I can give you something else." Guo Zhi gave Guo Yiqi hs new signature pen: "I can give this to you."
Guo Yiqi had a look of disgust: "Who cares about your broken pen, I just want this flower."
"Then I"ll give you two." Guo Zhi gave her the pens but it was swayed away bu Guo Yiqi and the pens fell onto the floor. She forcibly threw the flower into the book, the petals scattered. Guo Yiqi pretended to be surprised: "Ah, really sorry, I wasn"t careful."
Guo Zhi bit his lips and dragged the notebook with scattered petals: "It"s okay, you wasn"t careful."
Guo Yiqi no longer acknowledged Guo Zhi, she turned around to talk to the cla.s.smate on the other side. Guo Zhi got adhesive tape out from his bag and carefully stuck the flower petals together. When Guo Yiqi.turned around again she discovered that Guo Zhi was still managing the flowers. There was a unknown fire and it rose, since she was young because of having a bit of money she was spoiled: "What is the meaning of this? Wasn"t it just breaking your broken flower, you"re here managing it the whole time. Who do you want to see it? Putting on this matter of life and death face. Do you want e to kowtow to acknowledge my mistake?"
Guo Zhi surprised, looked at Guo Yiqi. He forcibly shook his head: "I didn"t mean that."
"You still say that you don"t mean it." Guo Yiqi. reached out to grab the flower that had just been glued/taped and threw it on the ground stepping on it with both feet: "A man caring so much about a flower, pervert!"
"I am not a pervert." Guo Zhi suddenly loudly refuted, maybe the him in the past would apologise, maybe he would be green about the gills but right now he was so calm, so reasonable.
"What are you shouting for!?"
The teacher came in, Guo Yiqi stared at Guo Zhi not making a sound pulling the stool away. Guo Zhi picked up the flower branch with only one petal remaining and put it in the book with the scattered petals. He listened carefully and concentrated on making notes. The flower was destroyed but Shi Xi is here so his garden was still in full bloom in his heart.
The afternoon cla.s.s finished, students went to the canteen, to the ramp in the canteen. Guo Yiqi pushed Guo Zhi from behind: "Move, don"t block the way." Guo Zhi stumbled forward, Shi Xi leaned forward and caught him, Guo Zhi lifted his head.
"Shi Xi?"
Guo Yiqi held her hands together: "Guo Zhi is a pervert even his friend is a strange person. Why are you wearing a hat on a hot day? If you"re so ugly that you can"t be seen then don"t come to study."
Shi Xi indifferently looked at Guo Yiqi: "Such an appearance of yours, do you have the qualification to say that others are ugly?"
"What do you mean."
"What? Do you not understand? The meaning is that you are ugly."
"You dare to say that, do you know who my dad is?" Guo Yiqi angrily shouted loudly. As long as someone provokes her, she will pull out her dad who had some money.
"I don"t know but I estimate that he is also very ugly to give birth to you." Shi Xi answered.
Guo Yiqi wanted to rush over but was held back by a friend at the side: "Don"t talk to these people, arguing with him will only lower your level. We just came to the school so creating a disturbance isn"t good, so many people are watching. In the future you have opportunities to deal with them." Guo Yiqi stared at the two people: "Wait and see!" They left and the crowd that was bustling with noise and excitement also followed and separated.
Guo Zhi bowed his head and suddenly murmmed to hmself: "I am not a pervert, I am not a pervert."
These words, Guo Zhi did not only want to tell Guo Yiqi, he also wanted to tell the whole world.
I am not a pervert!
Shi Xi reached out placing his fingers on Guo Zhi"s head messing up his hair: "You aren"t."
Guo Zhi lifted his head, his eyes twinkled.
Shi Xi said that he would let Guo Zhi know the world"s ugly and this is not a lie, Shi Xi brought evil and simultaneously also brought children"s stories. Guo Zhi learnt to lie to his parents, Guo Zhi recognised himself. Guo Zhi gradually became strong in the ugly and now Guo Zhi understands that the special G.o.d has given him is not for tormenting him it is a gift and this gift is none other than to encounter a loved one and only then can it be opened so love"s appearance is like this as long as he stays by his side he can feel happiness.

Oh, My Dear! Chapter 24 Devil"s fangs
At the end of October the hot temperature had faded away. Besides the non-stop hasty and careless handwriting on the paper and more and more pens being exhausted Shi Xi is still Shi Xi and Guo Zhi is still Guo Zhi.
Hua Gu Yu sat next to Shi Xi in the cla.s.s next door, he put his face on the table and complained: "It"s so boring. Shi Xi, do you have any way to make me not bored?"
"I do."
"How?"
"Shut up."
Hua Gu Yu glared at Shi Xi, his eyes filled with hate despite being accustomed to Shi Xi"s indifference but his hatred for Shi Xi will never die! He suddenly slammed the table: "I have decided that starting from today I am going to select a concubine." He looked at the girls in Shi Xi"s cla.s.s, the girls that were aware of his line of sight appeared to be shy but Hua Gu Yu made clicks with his hands: "The one with the red clothes won"t do her facial features are not delicate enough: the one wearing that purple dress won"t do, the shape of the chest seems a bit weird [1] : the one wearing the yellow clothes is even worse, although her face is not bad she does not have the aesthetic feeling when laughing: sigh, could it be said that n.o.body deserves me who is so beautiful as to overturn and ruin states?" With Hua Gu Yu"s critical eye, it is estimated that later on he would only be satisfied with a woman that is identical to himself.
[1] this could refer to girls stuffing tissue in their chest area to make them look bigger but it could also mean something else.
Shi Xi"s ear was filled with Hua Gu Yu"s noise non-stop he looked at Hua Gu Yu: "Hey, you."
"What?"
"In fact, you"re also not bad looking." This sentence by Shi Xi was only to send away Hua Gu Yu but he did not think that Hua Gu Yu would get agitated. He stood up and pointed to his own face: "What did you say? You said that my face is not so bad? Not bad? This is called handsome okay! I hate you, Shi Xi I hate you." After speaking, Hua Gu Yu turned around and rushed out of the cla.s.sroom.
Students in the cla.s.sroom were surprised at Hua Gu Yu"s abnormality and then looked at Shi Xi. They still do not understand how the school"s big handsome guy would know Shi Xi who was not eye-catching in cla.s.s. Shi Xi felt the eyes of others on him and lowered his hat down continuing to read books that have nothing to do with the cla.s.sroom.
Hua Gu Yu whose mind received grievous injury needed to heal, it took his a long time to find Guo Zhi"s cla.s.sroom. The girls in the cla.s.s watched Hua Gu Yu like a fool. Hua Gu Yu stood outside the cla.s.sroom calling Guo Zhi"s name: "Guo Zhi, quickly come out."
"What"s wrong?" Guo Zhi anxiously ran out thinking something happened to Hua Gu Yu.
"You judge between right and wrong, someone actually said that i"m not bad looking. My appearance is not bad? Not bad?" Apparently Hua Gu Yu is incapable of accepting the words "not bad".
Guo Zhi was also angry: "Nonsense! You"re obviously very handsome!" As expected Hua Gu Yu found the target to heal his mind.
"You also think this?"
"I"ve always though this! Hua"er is a very good looking man! Look at that group of love-struck
"Shi Xi said it!" This name was issued out by Hua Gu Yu"s mouth, Guo Zhi"s anger dissipated: "Maybe, maybe Shi Xi has a reason for saying so."
Hua Gu Yu who found it hard to believe retreated two steps, his fingers pointed at Guo Zhi: "You, you, you, you pay more attention to a lover than friends. [2] You like Shi Xi so you"re moving towards him." Hua Gu Yu suddenly realised what he had said and stopped. According to his understanding of Guo Zhi, he expected Guo Zhi"s face to turn ugly and be reluctant to admit it. Guo Zhi stared at Hua Gu Yu, he kept staring rather surprised. He suddenly laughed: "What? As it turns out Hua"er already knew but you played with me like before. Hua"er, it turns out that you"re not only handsome but you"re also very kind! That"s right, I like Shi Xi."
[2]重色轻友 is an idiom and also means to value s.e.x over friendship
Hua Gu Yu looked at Guo Zhi"s moved face, he"s admitting? In the end what did Shi Xi inject into his body to make changes to take place?
"Then what are you going to do in the future?"
"What should I do? In the future I"ll just continue to like." Guo Zhi"s countenance made it seem like her was aware of Hua Gu Yu"s silly question. Hua Gu Yu was momentarily blank again, for a short while he could not find words to speak. The Guo Zhi now does not need encouraging and does not need comforting. Presently, Guo Zhu"s expression is conveying his satisfaction.
"Quicky attend cla.s.s, I"ll leave first."
"Okay, I wish you a happy voyage." Guo Zhi waved.
"What good luck, it"s not even far!"Hua Gu Yu yelled leaving. Guo Zhi returned to his cla.s.s room and many girls came over with curiosity: "Guo Zhi, your friend?"
"Yes."
"You actually did not introduce such a handsome friend to us, you"re really mean Guo Zhi."
Guo Yiqi was painting her nails beside them, a face of disdain: "You really believe that was his friend? The chances are that he paid to make us believe it and to promote his existence in the cla.s.s, there are many people who would do such a shameless thing nowadays. I say Guo Zhi, rather than having this spare money (to do this i.e hire Haue"er to be his friend) change the clothes on yourself, have a haircut."
"That"s not likely?" The girls suspiciously stared at Guo Zhi.
Guo Zhi was not angry, he felt that Guo Yiqi aimed at him in such a way because her mood wasn"t good and she needed to find a place to vent and ain fact did not find him disgusting, he laughed: "Thanks for your opinion, I think that dressing like this is okay." Guo Qiyi treated Guo Zhi"s words as sarcasm, from the last time she saw Guo Zhi she seemed to have had an incurring dislike for him. These days she recruited people to form a faction to alienate Guo Zhi and secretly made malicious remarks against him.
"You dare to say that I"m lying? Isn"t your friend that very ugly person who is also wearing a hat? That"s also right, in this way you can be well matched."
"He isn"t a very ugly person." Guo Zhi accidentally disagreed with the girl in a low voice.
Guo Yiqi did not hear, she only looked at Guo Zhi"s lips moving thinking that Guo Zhi was scolding her, she angrily threw the nail polish over hitting Guo Zhi"s face, it was somewhat painful. He stared at Guo Qiyi not understanding, the teacher who just came in heard the commotion and berated: "It"s already time for cla.s.s, what are you doing still not returning to your seats!?"
The commotion calmed down, Guo Yiqi felt heartache looking at her own nail polish, her nail polish cost a lot of money, it was unexpectedly wasted and consequently it was wasted on the hateful Guo Zhi.
After cla.s.s, Guo Zhi went to the supermarket to buy some wipes to wipe of the nail polish left on his clothes. He b.u.mped into Hua Gu Yu again at the supermarket: "Hua"er what a coincidence."
"What coincidence? The school only has one supermarket, the chances are not considered small." After speaking he was aware of Guo Zhi"s face: "What is wrong with your face?"
"It"s nothing la, a girl in my cla.s.s was painting her nails and wasn"t careful so it got on my face. I"m leaving first."
Hua Gu Yu did not speak, he looked in the direction that Guo Zhi left in. His intelligence is in proportion to his face, seeing through Guo Zhi"s lies he went back to the teaching building and went to Shi Xi"s cla.s.s again. Shi Xi had his head lowered: "I recall that your cla.s.s should be next door."
"I just b.u.mped into Guo Zhi."
"What"s that got to do with me?"
"Do you think it"s strange, his face had some bruising and nail polish, do you think he is being bullied?"
Shi Xi did not speak, his head was lowered doing his own thing as usual. Hua Gu Yu frowned leaving back to his own cla.s.sroom.
The afternoon cla.s.ses made people feel sleepy, Guo Zhi pinched his own thigh to make himself wake up. It was hard for him to hold out to the end of cla.s.s, the student on his side complained: "It"s hard to understand. Guo Zhi, did you understand just now explain it to me."
"Okay."
Not far away, Guo Qiyi heard their words and turned around: "Didn"t I say that you aren"t allowed to speak to this pervert? If you want to be friends with him so much then don"t speak to me in the future!" Guo Qiyi seemingly thought that the whole cla.s.s would stand on her side because she was beautiful and because she had money so everyone should listen to her.
The students art the side were rather embarra.s.sed not knowing what to say. Guo Yiqi proudly smiled: "A pervert like you just stay with your ugly friend, you still need other friends? I view that there doesn"t seem to be such a ugly person that can be your friend in this cla.s.s."
"Don"t say that he is ugly, he is not ugly!"
"Yes yes, in your eyes he isn"t ugly. Is it beauty in the eyes of lovers, could it be that you also like boys but it"s not strange for a pervert like you to do this, it"s only just a little bit disgusting, pervert." People from their cla.s.s started to feel as if Guo Yiqi was too much but the girls that play well with Guo Yiqi gathered together to create a disturbance: "Pervert!"
"Pervert!"
He did not know when Shi Xi was standing outside, he was leaning against the door folding his arms. Guo Yiqi was aware, the corners of her mouth pulled up: "This person really can not say, once a very ugly person is said, the very ugly person comes. Quickly go, Guo Zhi."
Guo Zhi stared at Shi Xi, was Shi Xi also hurt because of him?
Shi Xi didn"t speak he went towards Guo Yiqi slowly placing his hand on the brim of the hat, the brim of the hat was raised with his fingers. That face leaving the concealment of the hat even the sunlight also dared to be bashful and shined on his face. His lips, his nose, his eyes pieced together his fineness. That face that once made Guo Zhi"s line of sight tremble shook everyone"s line of sight. Shi Xi shook the hat and threw it on to the ground, he had an aura that made people scared and fascinated at the same time. He moved towards Guo Yiqi who was in incomparable shock.
He leaned slightly bending close to Guo Yiqi, his voice so cold: "If you dare to call him a pervert again, I, will, ruin, you, no matter who your dad is."
He hid in the dark to take notes on the mundane, he is now gradually revealing the devil"s fangs only to resist the mundane.

Oh, My Dear! Chapter 25 His beauty
Guo Qiyi"s eyes opened wide but how can she dare believe that under the hat was this face. After a long time she recovered, being watched by so many people put her on the spot. For the first time someone made her a laughing stock and so she became angry from embarra.s.sment. She grab the books from the table and threw it over: "Who do you think you are?"
Shi Xi caught the books that were threw over easily and impolitely returned it back hitting Guo Qiyi"s face: "Who do you think you are?" There is no gender in Shi Xi"s eyes, he would not have unnecessary protective feelings for the fairer s.e.x just because the other is a girl.
Guo Qiyi covered her face, her eyes were full of anger and embarra.s.sment, the strange pain made her cry. She has lived a pampered life, everyone doted on her as she grew up and no one has ever raised a hand against her .
Guo Zhi looked at Guo Qiyi rather pitying her, he just wanted to call Shi Xi but who know that Guo Qiyi would suddenly yell like a b.i.t.c.h: "You actually hit me, you f.u.c.king actually hit me!" Saying this she rushed forward, Shi Xi stared at her. His pupils had no emotion and colour only coldness. This icy look pierced through Guo Qyi"s anger, she stepped back.
Shi Xi once again placed his eyesight onto the several girls that fawned upon the rich and powerful Guo Qiyi, he lightly opened his mouth: "You group of parasites." After he finished speaking, he turned and walked outside the cla.s.sroom door and he spoke once again: "It"s best if you remember the words I just said clearly. If you think i"m kidding then you can try."
"Shi Xi!" Guo Zhi called his name.
"If it"s a strange compliment shut up."
Guo Zhi flattened his mouth and swallowed the moved feeling and emotions from his chest back. Indeed Shi Xi has guessed correctly, his mouth only will have compliments for Shi Xi and for all of Shi Xi.
What is warm? Shi Xi is.
Sshi Xi went out of the cla.s.sroom, Hua Gu Yu"s arms were crossed together waiting for him outside with a meaningful smile. He approached Shi Xi and lightly hit Shi Xi"s arm: "Yo, didn"t you say that it was none of your business, why" Hua Gu Yu"s words were not finished, Shi Xi reached out and pushed him down the stairs. Hua Gu Yu staggered coming to a stop, he loudly shouted: "Do you want to kill me?!"
"That"s what I wanted."
"Do you want the whole world to cry bitterly when they lose a handsome guy?"
"When will you accept that you aren"t bad looking, this reality."
"Not bad? You"re calling me not bad? Not bad?" Along the way, Hua Gu Yu kept complaining about this statement non stop.
Shi Xi walked back to the cla.s.sroom during a lesson expressionlessly carrying off the teachers and all of the student"s surprised looks. They looked at that face and there was nothing but surprise and for Guo Zhi,he was surrounded by girls the whole afternoon inquiring about almost the same matter.
"Guo Zhi, Who is he?"
"Shi Xi."
"He is very handsome."
"Yep, not only is he handsome his achievements are excellent and he is kindhearted…" through Guo Zhi, Shi Xi was seriously beautified and his status rose rapidly.
"You and him have a good relationship?"
"Yep, we are really good friends!" Guo Zhi"s response was arrogant.
After self-study at night ended, Guo Zhi went to the snack stand outside school to buy a large number of food then he went to the fruit stand to buy a fruit basket. Lastly, he went to the fresh flower shop and looked at the variety of flowers waveringly. The boss kindly came over: "What flowers do you want to pick? I can recommend it for you, is it for your girlfriend?"
Guo Zhi shook his head and earnestly looked at the boss: "Excuse me, what flowers should I give to angels?" This question really baffled the boss, he doubtfully reconfirmed: "You mean that your girlfriend is like an angel?"
"No, No, I"m talking about a real angel, ones that fly in the sky."
"This" The boss did not know how to reply at the moment. Suddenly, Guo Zhi"s line of sight stopped at the flower in the furthest corner, the flower was identical to the dried-up flower that Shi Xi gave him. He pointed at the flower: "Boss I want this bundle, would you pleased wrap it up for me."
"Okay, please wait."
Guo Zhi carried food, a fruit basket and flowers, it was like he was going to visit a relative at the hospital. It was hard to avoid catching attention. He rang Shi Xi"s door: "Shi Xi quickly open the door, I can"t hold it!"
The door was pulled open, Shi Xi looked at the fruits and fresh flowers before his eyes. In the next second, he wanted to close the door but Guo Zhi used his foot to prevent it: "Why won"t you let me in?"
"Why should I let you in?"
"Look, I helped you buy it. Shi Xi, you"re really good. I don"t know how to thank you, do you like these things?"
"Do you think I will like them?"
"I think yu will like them." Guo Zhi slanted his head and smiled. From his bad he extracted a book: "I also brought you a book." Guo Zhi disregarded whether Shi Xi accepted or not as he put the book he brought on top of Shi Xi"s stack of books in the corner then he looked around and picked upan empty plastic bottle. He cut the opening and went to the bathroom to fill it up and then carefully inserted the flowers into the plastic bottle. He took a look himself and then felt that if he placed it on the desk and it fell it would wet the paper and the computer so he placed the flowers on the bed stand and with that he clapped his hands: "Okay."
"Excuse me? Who allowed you to behave like this?"
"It"s nothing, no need to thank me it"s what I should do." Seeing Shi Xi no longer acknowledging him he continued to say: " But you shouldn"t have hit Guo Qiyi, boys. .h.i.tting girls is not right and I feel that she isn"t evil"
"When will your foolish mind recognise the reality?"
"I have clearly recognized it, I said that everyone has beauty. Why is it that you are always unconvinced?!" Guo Zhi said dissatisfied. Their characters in this way are different, their thoughts in this way are different but fate nevertheless has placed the in the same cycle (of reincarnation).
"Where is the beauty? At any rate I have not seen it." Shi Xi wanted to open the laptop, Guo Zhi looked at Shi Xi"s movements and looked at Shi Xi"s fingers. He whispered, his voice carrying a happy feeling: "Where other people"s beauty is, I don"t know. Mine" Guo Zhi extended his index finger, his fingers touched the location of Shi Xi"s heart: "is here."
His innocent expression reined in Shi Xi"s sight, in this quiet room the flowers that were once withered was now in full bloom on Shi Xi"s bed stand. Shi Xi abruptly leaned down to kiss Guo Zhi.
This kiss is not the same as the short one from the first time, this kiss has scared Guo Zhi"s heart. The blood in his body was boiling. His adam"s apple trembled. Shi Xi"s fingers unb.u.t.toned the b.u.t.tons on Guo Zhi"s clothes.
"Shi Xi, you, what are you doing?"
"Not doing anything."
"You"re really not doing anything?"
"En." Shi Xi answered though he was not honest but Guo Zhi believed him. Since Shi Xi has said it then he is only simply helping undress, right? Right?
