The 70s Novel: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Lie Down-Chapter 18: Secretly Observing, Heart in Turmoil

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Secretly Observing, Heart in Turmoil

Wang Miaomiao won’t compromise on herself now. Even though time is tight and she needs to study well, sleep is also very important and cannot be sacrificed.

In less than five minutes, she fell into a sweet dream. Therefore, she didn’t see that the class genius, Zhou Hu, who was still studying hard at noon, seemed to be frozen, his eyes fixed on the papers on the desk, his pen in hand yet unmoving, and his ears quietly turning red...

Zhou Hu only felt his heart pounding fiercely. He had never cared about girls, so why was he acting so abnormal today? Ever since she ran in breathlessly with a smile in the morning, he couldn’t help but focus his gaze on her, as if he could no longer look away...

He had not paid much attention to the girls in the class before, but after changing seats yesterday, he learned from the teacher that the girl sitting next to him was injured. The teacher asked him to help her catch up on missed classes, so he found her brother during mealtime to understand the situation.

The high school entrance exam is just a few days away, and he was worried that her injury was severe, missing too many lessons might make it impossible for her to catch up...

Who knew she only took a day off, even though her head injury looked quite serious. The papers that were handed out had not been gone over by the teacher, yet she had them all completed correctly. And during the math class, she shockingly multitasked, reading Chinese instead.

Is this really the same classmate Wang Miaomiao? Seeing how she’s making good use of time and studying earnestly, it seems she doesn’t really need his tutoring...

They didn’t have any interaction the whole morning.

And now, his peripheral vision caught her red, puffy little face as she slept, with those adorable pouted red lips, making his heart unsettled...

’No, Zhou Hu, your task now is to study hard and get into high school. You are not allowed to think about anything else.’ Zhou Hu silently admonished himself and forced himself to withdraw his gaze and concentrate on his papers.

Wang Miaomiao was having a good dream, unaware that she had unknowingly stirred a young boy’s heart.

Half an hour later, as the bell rang, the lunch break ended, and Wang Miaomiao got up comfortably, stretched lazily, and slowly moved her neck and arms, planning to face the afternoon classes with energy.

"Wang, classmate."

"Hmm?" Wang Miaomiao turned her head in confusion because she heard the scholarly seatmate next to her call her name, "What’s up? Zhou, classmate."

Zhou Hu looked at her face, shown surprise and tried hard to hold back the laughter.

Wang Miaomiao instinctively touched her face and asked, "What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"There’s a button imprint." Zhou Hu pointed to her left cheek, reminding her.

Upon hearing this, Wang Miaomiao rubbed her face hard, saying nonchalantly, "It’s okay, it will be gone after a while." Although she said so, her hand kept rubbing her face without stopping.

Indeed, it would go away after a while. She shook open her clothes and looked at the line of buttons in the middle, silently thinking she must bring a small pillow tomorrow because she wasn’t adequately prepared today.

Feeling like he was still watching her, she turned her head to ask, "Anything else?"

"Cough..." Zhou Hu’s fair face suddenly flushed a little. He cleared his throat with a fake cough, "Well, Teacher Wu asked me to help catch you up with yesterday’s lessons. You can ask me if there’s anything you don’t understand..."

Although he knew she might not need it, but...

"Really?" Wang Miaomiao said happily, "Then thank you in advance, Zhou, classmate. You really are a helpful comrade."

The other party was indeed the top in the grade. Although she was confident in catching up with all her courses, it would surely require a lot of effort. Now there’s free help, why not take advantage of it?

"Can you lend me your notes on first-year Politics and Chinese first?" Wang Miaomiao looked at him expectantly.

From the books and test papers, the original owner wasn’t stupid but relatively lazy. She did well in science subjects, but her performance in humanities was rather poor, becoming a weak spot. Her books were cleaner than her face, oh...

Though summarizing wasn’t hard for her, why waste brain cells when there’s a ready-made option...

"Sure." Zhou Hu looked at the bright smile on her face, his heart involuntarily speeding up again.

Just then, the class bell rang. Zhou Hu seemed startled, hurriedly said, "I’ll bring it for you tomorrow," and then turned around and sat up straight.

Wang Miaomiao was puzzled. Is this Political Science teacher very fierce? Seeing him so nervous...

Involuntarily, Wang Miaomiao also sat up straight, waiting for the teacher’s arrival.

Break time...

"Miaomiao, let’s go to the bathroom together." Li Xiaohua called her, her eyes full of gossip.

Going to the bathroom during break time could lead to many happenings... Seems like many liked to go there in groups.

"Sure..." Wang Miaomiao readily agreed.

Once out the door, Li Xiaohua stealthily approached her and whispered, "What did you and Zhou Hu talk about after waking up from the lunch break? You two were laughing so happily?"

"Nothing much, it’s just that the teacher asked him to help me with yesterday’s class. I just thanked him a bit." Wang Miaomiao thought, sigh... sitting in the first row isn’t good, whatever you do the whole class sees it. She missed the days of sitting in the second to last row at school, secretly doing all kinds of little actions.

"Is that so..." Li Xiaohua looked at her with doubt.

"If you don’t believe, then forget it." Wang Miaomiao said indifferently, showing righteousness, without any guilt.

"Oh..." Li Xiaohua checked her expression, feeling she wasn’t lying, then quietly reminded her, "Good, if it’s nothing. I’ll tell you, Gao Jianhong in our class likes Zhou Hu a lot, she’ll hold a grudge against anyone who talks to him more. Be careful, she might cause you trouble..."

"Really..." Wang Miaomiao couldn’t help but find it funny inside, campus bullying? Unexpected to have the luck to encounter this?

"I get it, thanks, Xiao Hua." Wang Miaomiao thanked her with a smile and noticed Li Xiaohua’s flickering gaze, "I hope it’s nothing."

This girl, could she also secretly like Zhou Hu.

After a day of classes, she felt at ease.

Once the bell for school dismissal rang, she saw students seeming as if they had taken stimulants, energetically rushing out of the classroom one by one.

Wang Miaomiao couldn’t help but laugh at the sight. Was it really that exaggerated? It seemed like the classroom was hell, and outside was heaven, everyone wanting to escape hell...

"Wang Miaomiao."

Just as Wang Miaomiao packed her bag and was about to leave, someone rushed out from behind and blocked her path.

"What is it?" It was a tall girl, not particularly good-looking.

"I warn you, stay away from Zhou Hu, and don’t talk to him." The girl threatened aggressively, "Or else... humph... my brother is Gao Jianjun."

Wang Miaomiao clicked her tongue, was she getting bullied in school already? Tsk, tsk...
