Chapter 957: Little Fish, Long Time No See! (2)

Especially in the front rows, almost completely filled, which is very different from other courses.

Because today’s music elective class is taught by Mr. Wang.

“Hey, there are so many people today; Mr. Wang is so popular, lots of guys came to class, the first five rows are practically full.”

“Should have come earlier.”

Zhou Tan’s big eyes kept glancing at the empty seats in the classroom.

“Zhiyu, come quickly, there are still two seats left near the aisle over here.”

…

In the corner of the tiered classroom, Li Yuan, wearing a hat and mask, watched each figure walking into the classroom intently.

For the seven pm music class, he arrived a little past six thirty, quietly hiding in the corner, quietly observing every figure entering the classroom.

Just to not miss seeing that girl he wanted to see.

As more students gradually filled the classroom, Li Yuan watched even more carefully, afraid of missing her.

The tiered classroom was large enough to seat one to two hundred people, and with the music elective being quite popular, there were a lot of people.

Around six forty, students started to trickle in, claiming seats and finding good spots.

“Almost class time, she wouldn’t decide not to come, would she?”

Li Yuan muttered anxiously to himself, scrutinizing every figure entering the classroom.

Suddenly, a familiar figure walked in from the back door of the classroom.

Seeing this figure, Li Yuan felt a sudden quiver in his heart and could no longer sit still, his gaze fixed on her.

He whispered lightly.

“Little Fish!”

“She’s here!”

Almost four months had passed since he last saw this girl who seemed like a fairy, and the excitement in Li Yuan’s heart was palpable.

He was dying to stand up immediately and go over to say hello.

Yet, ultimately, reason prevailed over impulse.

He didn’t act recklessly but quietly watched Jiang Zhiyu and another girl sit down six rows ahead on the aisle side.

Jiang Zhiyu sat by the aisle with an empty seat next to her; beside her was another girl, who from the looks of it, should be her roommate.

Looking at the profile of the girl he had been longing to see,

Li Yuan, having calmed down, couldn’t help but smile.

It’s so nice to see this fairy-like girl again!

With Little Fish entering the class, there was noticeably more commotion, especially among the boys in the classroom.

Li Yuan had excellent hearing.

He could hear some boys whispering about Little Fish.

“Look, School Beauty Jiang is here, haha, I heard School Beauty Jiang likes music class, so that’s why I came.”

“Wow, no wonder she’s the recognized school beauty of Yan University, her aura, looks, figure, simply perfect.”

“There are still seats in the back row near the school beauty, should we sit over there?”

“Haha, there’s an empty seat next to School Beauty Jiang, why not sit there?”

“I don’t dare; if any guy dares to sit next to School Beauty Jiang, he’d be killed by the glares from other guys in the classroom.”

“Our School Beauty Jiang is perfect in every way, just a bit too aloof, has an air of ‘strangers keep away’; any guy near her feels frozen.”

“Gangzi, I heard someone say School Beauty Jiang doesn’t like guys and prefers girls, is that true?”

“Damn, don’t say nonsense like that; how could such a beautiful girl be into girls?”

“Hehe, if she’s not into girls, then why hasn’t she dated any guy? As far as I know, there are at least a thousand if not eight hundred guys trying to pursue her. Some of them are quite exceptional, tall, handsome, and wealthy. Does she not care for any of them?”

“Who knows, I heard School Beauty Jiang’s family is well-off too, maybe she prefers talented people. Haha, like me, I was the top in the province for the college entrance exam.”

“Come on, with someone like you, even as a girl I wouldn’t be interested, let alone School Beauty Jiang.”

“I heard some gossip that School Beauty Jiang transferred to our school because of a past emotional trauma, so she’s very against all things male…”

“A peerless beauty like School Beauty Jiang, to be able to date her, would be a dream to laugh in your sleep, could she really suffer emotional trauma? That’s impossible.”

“I’m just telling a rumor, who knows the truth, anyway I don’t believe it either.”

…

Listening to the boys around him, Li Yuan frowned deeply, then sighed lightly.

Actually, they weren’t wrong.

With Jiang Zhiyu’s attributes, she truly is perfect in every aspect—whether it’s her personality, figure, appearance, education, or family background and talents—exceptionally excellent from every angle…

Such a girl, wherever she goes, always has many admirers and is unanimously recognized as a super-rich school beauty, has suffered emotionally.

Who would believe it if they heard?

Probably, apart from a few people who know the truth, no one would believe it, right?

But he indeed deeply hurt this perfect girl…

Li Yuan’s gaze was filled with confusion and guilt.

He didn’t even know how he should face this fairy-like girl now.

What qualifications did he have to walk up to her?

Li Yuan quietly stared at the back of Jiang Zhiyu until the class bell was about to ring.

A young female teacher, dressed in a very fashionable manner, walked to the center of the classroom on high heels, with big wavy hair, carrying a guitar bag…

“Students, welcome to the first music elective class of our new semester. I am your Mr. Wang.”

“Today, our course is about the rise and development of modern popular music…”

“Everyone knows, in the 1987 Spring Festival Gala, Mr. Fei Xiang’s “The Flame of Winter”, directly announced the beginning of modern popular music in our country…”

“In the following time, popular music started to flourish rapidly, exploding from music represented by Hong Kong and Taiwan, to Korean, Japanese and Western music entering the domestic market, and our mainland music saw wave after wave of geniuses…”

“Now, the domestic modern pop music scene is a time of flourishing diversity, a great era, featuring some representative figures, like Jay Chou, Li Yuan, and others…”

“The rhythm of modern music is very fast, and its popularity spreads quickly. In the internet era, a good song can be spread all over Jiangnan and the world within just one or two days…”

Li Yuan was sitting in the back row, originally focused intently on Little Fish. Suddenly hearing his name, he was startled and instinctively looked up, seeing the beautiful teacher on the podium passionately and energetically giving a lecture…

He couldn’t help but smile softly, shaking his head, finding it rather amusing.

He hadn’t expected his fame to have grown so much that it could appear in a music lesson at Yan University, one of the country’s top academic institutions…

After listening to the beautiful music teacher’s lecture for a while, Li Yuan quickly lost interest.

Although he really liked music and singing, at this moment, he had no mood at all.

His mind was filled with the bits and pieces of being together with Little Fish.

All he could think about was, in what manner, and how he should face Little Fish now.

After agonizing for a long time,

Li Yuan finally decided to take action.

“Li Yuan, be brave, don’t still be this timid, regardless of the outcome, dare to face it.”

“This day will eventually come; it must be faced; avoiding it is useless.”

Li Yuan was giving himself encouragement, steeling his nerves.

He looked at Jiang Zhiyu’s back, fully focused on the lecture, and the empty seat beside her, gradually making up his mind.

Looking around the classroom, packed with students—probably over a hundred—all of whom were seriously learning along with the beautiful music teacher.

Taking advantage while the beautiful teacher turned to face the blackboard, Li Yuan, feeling apprehensive, stood up, taking off his hat and holding it in his hand, then quickly left his seat and quietly sat beside Jiang Zhiyu.

While the class was ongoing, suddenly a boy sat next to her,

Jiang Zhiyu’s beautiful face showed a confused expression, and she couldn’t help but turn her head to look.

At that glance, even though Li Yuan wore a mask, she could still tell that the boy’s side profile was so familiar, so similar…

How could she forget,

How could she possibly forget?

He was her first love, also the man she once loved most dearly.

Jiang Zhiyu stared dumbly at Li Yuan.

Amidst her confusion,

She heard the boy in front of her suddenly take off his mask, turn his head, and say something to her that she would never forget.

“Little Fish, long time no see!”
