Qiao Shao was feeling quite guilty. “We’re lying.”

He Shen said, “Then I’ll tell the truth next time.”

Qiao Shao couldn’t keep with his thoughts. “The truth?”

He Shen said earnestly, “Teacher, may I please request for leave to spend Valentine’s Day with my seatmate?”

Qiao Shao: “............”

Fine. The truth makes him feel even guiltier than the lie!

The two handed their leave of absence slips and left smoothly through the school gate. Qiao Shao felt a bit sad, “Now, we won’t ever run into Lou Xiao jumping over the school fence.”

He Shen looked at him. “Do you really miss him?”

Qiao Shao silently glanced at him. “I can hear the sour tone in your words. Isn’t Lou Xiao your good buddy!”

He Shen spoke, reasonable and with complete justification. “It’s always your good buddies who end up undermining the foundation.”

Qiao Shao choked but also really didn’t know how to refute.

He Shen was just kidding, he didn’t think much about it at all. He said, “Lao Lou finished his training at the end of the year. He’ll probably get to go up during the spring competition.”

Qiao Shao’s eyes lit up. “That’s amazing! Then he’s a starter?”

Because someone he knew had entered into this career, Qiao Shao made it a point to learn about the e-sports circle. He knew that in a team, there were starters and substitutes. It stands to reason that newcomers would be relegated to watching the water dispensers. One had to be a truly talented player to be able to be a starter this quickly.

He Shen curved his lower lip. “He’s really staking his all.”

Qiao Shao said warmly. “That’s good.”

Although Lou Xiao didn’t do so well in school, this world he entered was more forgiving. As long as you worked hard, as long as you staked your all, and if you put in many times over the effort ordinary people would, you will always get the results you deserve.

He Shen added, “When summer vacation comes around, we’ll go see him play in person.”

Qiao Shao immediately said, “Why do we have to wait until the summer? Isn’t it the spring competition?”

He Shen said, “He won’t let us watch, unless he manages to get to the finals.”

Qiao Shao’s eyes curved into crescents. “Alright.” It was definitely something Lou Xiao would say; this school tyrant who acted all tough and carried a heavy burden but was in fact passionate and protective.

When they reached the roadside, He Shen had a thought. “Do you really want to go home?”

Qiao Shao said, “There’s no one at home.”

It was the middle of the day, Da Qiao must have gone to work.

He Shen reminded him. “But there’s the surveillance cameras.”

Qiao Shao: “...” That was absolutely scary. In case Da Qiao decides to take a look at the surveillance during his spare time and sees the two of them skipping school. En ... That image was just too frightening, he didn’t even dare think about it!

He Shen suggested. “Let’s go on a date.”

Qiao Shao was intrigued. A date, huh ...

He Shen said, “We’ll go see a movie, then get something to eat and in the afternoon ... Do you want to go to the amusement park?”

Qiao Shao’s eyes brightened. “Okay!” Speaking of which, he hadn’t been to the amusement park in a long time. Disneyland had already opened in China but he hadn’t had a chance to visit it.

He Shen took hold of his hand and said, “Before that, we have things we need to do.”

Qiao Shao asked curiously, “What’s the matter?”

He Shen: “We need to buy clothes.”

Qiao Shao: “?”

He Shen pulled off his tidy little tie and said, “Going on a date in our school uniforms. Seems a bit eye-catching don’t you think?”

Right! Qiao Shao returned to his sense. The two of them were still wearing East High’s school uniforms. If they went to the amusement part, emmm... More than being eye-catching, he was afraid they’d end up on the hot search!

The two of them went to the nearest Gucci, and the sales clerks were shocked to see two high school students walk in and were momentarily dazed.

No one would have thought they were there to actually shop. They would only think that they had stumbled into the store while walking around.

Under normal circumstances, the clerks would give them a frosty reception. They wouldn’t be rude but they certainly wouldn’t be enthusiastic. But this time the three shop clerks’ eyes almost sparkled as they went to greet them.

Did they recognize He Shen and Qiao Shao? Impossible, because these two young masters never needed to go out to buy their own clothes. So why did they welcome them so enthusiastically?

Because of their faces.

On Valentine’s Day, the men’s clothing stores were destined to be deserted. The bored young ladies saw the store doors open and these two handsome guys walked in through the bright winter sunshine. Who wouldn’t be given a jolt of vigor?

Especially the tall one; he was so handsome, he could take the lead in an idol drama.

Of course, the shorter one was also the pure and clean type. He was probably still young hadn’t blossomed yet. It was easy to see that after a few years, he was going to be stopping people in their tracks.

The clerks greeted them warmly and asked them what they needed.

He Shen asked directly for the clothes in the window display. “Are there any stocks? Size 48 and 54.”

Hearing these two sizes, Qiao Shao felt embarrassed. The difference between 185 and 170 really was too big!

The sad thing was, He Shen wore a 185 because he was slim. Qiao Shao wore a 170 because ... he wouldn’t ever wear a 165 even if they beat him to death!

The clerks were stunned. “The coat and pants are in stock. For the sweater we only have it for size 54, but we have another one from the same series. The stripes are slightly different.”

He Shen nodded. “Okay, we’ll take two of them. We’ll change here.”

The clerk was still muddled, and said tactfully, “This is the early spring line, and there’s no discount for the latest line.” Even if there was a discount, it wasn’t something ordinary high school students can buy off-hand. Little Gege, especially this coat, it costs more than 90,000 yuan!

He Shen knew what she was implying and had no intention of embarrassing her. He simply said, “I’ll settle the amount.”

Clerk: “???

Another clerk, who was a bit older, was sharper. “Okay, I’ll help you draw the bill.” Her attitude was now completely different. F*ck, they didn’t come here to window shop. Which family’s young masters were these? Isn’t this school uniform ... East High? Does East High have such rich children?

He Shen paid and led Qiao Shao to change clothes.

Qiao Shao didn’t pay attention to this. What he struggled with was: “Why did you buy the same design?”

He Shen said boldly and self-assuredly, “It’s only natural that we should wear matching outfits on Valentine’s day.”

Qiao Shao scolded him, “Who was it that said we should be a bit low-key!”

He Shen said, “Is black not low-key enough?”

Qiao Shao mouth twitched. “It’s low-key, really low-key!” He closed the door to the dressing room and went to change clothes.

The two came out almost at the same time. Because they were door to door, they saw each other as soon as they opened the door.

He Shen approached him and adjusted his collar. “It looks good.”

Qiao Shao pushed him away. He blushed and looked away. “Not as good-looking as you are.”

He Shen’s smile turned deeper, but unfortunately, the clerk came to blow rainbow farts, and He Shen couldn’t do anything.

Their school uniforms were given to the store clerk to be delivered to their home. The two of them came out to play, how could they lug these things around?

Walking out the street in their new change of clothes, the mood was completely different.

The wool coat was very warm, and Qiao Shao also felt warmed in his heart. He allowed He Shen to lead him along, walking down these unfamiliar but beautiful streets.

He Shen asked him, “What movie do you want to watch?”

Qiao Shao said, “Anything’s fine.”

He Shen also didn’t care what they watched. “Then let’s watch the latest release?”

Qiao Shao nodded: “Okay!”

He Shen turned on the app and said, “...My First Love at Seventeen.”

Qiao Shao looked at him. “Huh?”

He Shen showed it to him and said, “It’s the movie that was just released today, do you want to watch it?”

Qiao Shao looked at the lineup and said, “It doesn’t look very good...”

This kind of film was probably made for Valentine’s Day and the quality wouldn’t be very good.

He Shen said, “Then I’ll look for something else...”

Qiao Shao said again, “No, let’s watch this!”

He Shen: “Didn’t you say it might now be any good?”

“If I get bored watching it...” Qiao Shao looked up at him, deliberately dragging out what he wanted to say, “then I’ll just watch you.”

He Shen: “!”

The author has something to say: hhh, if this were placed in an adult context, Qiao Xiao Shao, you might not be able to get out of bed [silence]!

It’s a little short ... I confess...

Watch me stretch this damn short tomorrow!
