Zhuang Nainai blushed and replied, “Teacher, I don’t think that’s… appropriate.”

She then stole a glance at Si Zhengting.

Si Zhengting instantly felt that something was amiss.

The language teacher noted Zhuang Nainai’s bashfulness and decided that there was still hope for her. She was a girl after all. She earnestly preached, “Zhuang Nainai, I a.s.signed an essay on ‘dreams.’ If this were the college entrance exam, the examiner would have given you a big fat zero! Can’t you write something serious?”

Zhuang Nainai protested softly, “I wrote it very seriously!”

The teacher turned red with anger. “How is that serious when you yourself are too embarra.s.sed to read it out loud? Why won’t you dare to share a serious essay?”

Zhuang Nainai blinked her huge eyes. “I dare to! I’m just worried that Si Zhengting might feel uncomfortable.”

The teacher was lost for words. She was not feeling embarra.s.sed by her essay at all!

The teacher was still reeling as she pointed at her and questioned, “Si Zhengting is a boy, what’s there to be embarra.s.sed about? Zhuang Nainai, you…”

“Oh! He won’t be? I will read it then!”

Zhuang Nainai did not wait for the teacher to finish before picking up the essay from the table. She cleared her throat and proceeded to animatedly recite her essay.

“Dreams, as the name suggests, are… they are imaginings… and also thoughts, which could be achieved through hard work.”

The beginning paragraph was very ordinary, everyone listened on in puzzlement.

The teacher was still fuming and found no words to describe her anger.

Si Zhengting p.r.i.c.ked up his ears and saw Zhuang Nainai grin at him.

What followed in the essay was indeed shocking.

“I have two dreams. The first… is to be in a relations.h.i.+p with Si Zhengting.

“The two parties have to have feelings for each other to be in a relations.h.i.+p. However, the present situation is such that I fell in love with him at first sight. He is cool and handsome, but he does not return my feelings.

“It’s alright, though. I will observe and get close to him day by day. When he is playing basketball, I will prepare water and a towel for him. When he is doing his homework, I will keep quiet and not disturb him. When he is unhappy, I will make goofy faces and make him laugh. When he is happy, I will share in his joy.

“I believe that he will discover my strengths and charm through my hard work and fall in love with me. We will then naturally become a couple.”

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes glimmered upon finis.h.i.+ng her paragraph. She looked at Si Zhengting expectantly.

A few seconds of silence pa.s.sed before the cla.s.s erupted in laughter.

Someone in the back row whistled.

All eyes were on Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting.

He wondered to himself at that moment, how could a girl be so unabashed and bold?

But her eyes shone so brightly that his heart did a flip.

Si Zhengting looked down and responded with coldness and nonchalance.

The language teacher finally calmed herself. Patting herself on the chest, she demanded, “Silence!”

The cla.s.s settled down and she looked to Zhuang Nainai, who asked again, “Teacher, should I read the second wish?”

Before the teacher could reply, a curious student shouted, “Read it!”
