The class president often helped her, and they also discussed privately. She ntioned not wanting to be the class academic commissioner. However, the class president resolved it in a different way. That was by conveying her learning thods and solutions through him to the classmates. Since everyone had no rejection towards the class president, and could accept it better, many were benefiting in their studies.
Of course, everyone didn’t thank the girl, but the class president. On the contrary, everyone noticed that the class president was more closely associated with the girl, mostly communicating when others weren’t around. Thus, rumors began to swirl secretly. So said the class president wanted to pursue the girl, others said he secretly loved her and used his position to get close to her. There was even a ridiculous notion that said the class president approached the girl just to obtain her study thods to teach everyone. So, the class president almost beca the hero who used charm to obtain secrets..."
When she reached this part of the story, Qiao Huanxuan smiled, her gaze fixed forward but seemingly crossing ti, looking at the youths from those verdant years.
Li Yan laughed too, albeit a bit embarrassedly. Although she didn’t na nas, it was undoubtedly referring to him, and as she recounted the story, he vaguely recalled those past tis.
Crushes were supposed to be secretive affairs, yet why did He Zhexia, Bai Jie, Lin Wenbin, and Yang Qing all feel he secretly loved Qiao Huanxuan? It was like so public secret, yet he himself didn’t have much of a deep impression, making him truly wonder if he had forgotten nurous important mories.
Only now did he understand! There was another layer of relationship behind everything...
"...Everyone feared he’d be distracted by the teacher, so they tacitly helped conceal everything, never leaking it to classmates from other classes. Even when teachers occasionally heard rumors of him and her having an early romance and privately sought students for details, they all unanimously denied it. Everyone protected the class president...
These rumors also reached the girl’s ears through good friends. She rely laughed it off because she knew the class president was helping her, rather than approaching her for study techniques or doing task prioritization; nor was he pursuing her. But was the class president’s help solely for the class, for classmates’ studies, or was there indeed an elent of a secret crush?"
She didn’t know, nor did she delve deeply into it. Because of frequent communications and shared topics, she felt as though she had a like-minded, very good friend in the class president. She didn’t want to taint pure friendship with the vulgar ideas of others.
Later, due to the class president promoting her study thods and experiences, along with the teacher’s ticulous efforts, their class had a high school admission rate, with most entering the sa high school and being in the sa class again. However, she was still the academic commissioner, but he was no longer the class president. Without a reason, their interactions decreased significantly. Yet, in the eyes of everyone, he still secretly loved her. Hence, there was always a good female friend who occasionally reported all his situations to her. When others wanted to approach her, the male and female students from the original class would seize opportunities to interfere and separate them.
That was when she started to feel unhappy. She suspected whether the class president genuinely had a crush on her and whether he used his influence to mobilize classmates to drive away other boys from approaching her. If that was true, she felt he tarnished their pure friendship.
That year, when the girl celebrated her birthday, she received a gift from the class president through another female classmate. It was a music box, a very ordinary gift that didn’t signify much. However, her intuition perceived that a class president who never gave gifts before wanted to express sothing. She didn’t want cordial classmate relationships to turn into romantic pursuits; her mind was all about studying.
To prevent the class president from misunderstanding, she didn’t accept the gift. She intentionally said publicly that the gift was tacky and asked that female classmate to return it. She felt it was an indirect confession, and she too indirectly rejected it. Being young at the ti, she didn’t consider others’ feelings or face issues. However, she did sowhat pay attention to the class president’s reaction. As a result... the class president tossed that music box out the window right away.
Other classmates felt the class president was angry and ashad, and everyone pretended not to see it and avoided that topic. She did the sa, but that action was deeply engraved in her mind.
After school, she couldn’t help but search for it. Fortunately, she found the music box, and it wasn’t shattered, although it was originally intended as her birthday gift, now returned, thrown by the gift-giver, unable to produce sound anymore.
She brought that broken music box back ho, along with regret. She vaguely understood her refusal led to his tossing, and what he threw away wasn’t just a music box but a sentint, perhaps what they ntioned as a crush. And with his discarded crush, their friendship also vanished...
Indeed, after that, both tried to avoid encountering each other alone. When seeing each other, they instinctively evaded. Perhaps just to avoid awkwardness, but it undoubtedly accelerated the fading of their connection.
Not long after, the class president didn’t attend school anymore, and no one knew why. It was said the teacher summoned the parents. And the parents were angry and worried, not knowing where he went, rely saying he ran away from ho, leaving a ssage claiming studying was useless, opting to learn sothing to earn money.
That once stirred their class greatly, and eventually, there was no news of the class president. Everyone started preparing for the college entrance exam, going their separate ways. Later, even after over ten years had passed, whenever forr classmates t, they’d talk about that forr class president, but he disappeared mysteriously just like that..."
Qiao Huanxuan finished her story, then looked at Li Yan. — Tears welled up, pleading for the monthly pass~~
