Parallel Lines of Rebirth

Chapter 639: A Chinese romance

Even with Xu Yao's personality, she was so embarrassed after saying this that she lay tightly in Wen Liang's arms, her face and body burning hot, as if they were about to burn up in the next moment.

The gentle hand slowly rose up, slid across her waist and hips, and then moved from her sharp shoulders to her beautiful neck. However, he did not cover her breasts, which were already showing the graceful figure of a young girl. Instead, he gently stroked her face and whispered, "Fool!"

The girl, who was feeling uneasy and expectant at the same time, looked up in confusion. Seeing Wen Liang's clear eyes that were brighter than the night stars, she could not help but feel his boundless cherishment and love for her. Her heart was filled with tenderness. She bit her red lips and said, "It's okay. I do!"

Wen Liang smiled slightly, his hand fell back to his waist, and with a little force, he made the girl's body close to him again, resting his chin on her smooth forehead, and said: "Silly!"

Xu Yao only felt that the voice coming from her ears had the flavor of the malt crisps that she loved to eat when she was a child, soft, sweet, and melted in her mouth. She stopped talking and listened quietly to Wenliang's heartbeat.

If someone at the foot of the mountain looks up, they will find a pair of figures leaning against each other, reflected by a crescent moon on the edge of the cliff at the top of the peak overlooking the river. It looks timeless and unforgettable!

If possible,

Yes,

If possible, Xu Yao would rather stay like this, just like this, hugging each other without any worries, until the end of time!

But the cruelty of time is that it will never freeze at the moment you want it to freeze.

The sky is getting darker, the wind is picking up, and a chill is blowing in!

"Let's go, it's time to go down the mountain."

"Well," although reluctant, Xu Yao nodded obediently and said, "What should we do with these things?"

"It's okay, someone will clean it up later."

Xu Yao was naturally relieved to see Wen Liang doing the job. She just took a last look at the mountaintop that gave her the greatest surprise and the most nostalgic feeling in the past seventeen years, then turned and left.

The two of them reached the mountain path. After tossing and turning for half the night, Xu Yao was feeling a little tired. Wen Liang suddenly squatted down and said with a smile, "Come, I'll carry you!"

Xu Yao was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head and said, "No, you will be tired."

Wen Liang deliberately said with a dark face: "If you doubt my physical strength, be careful of the family punishment!"

Xu Yao then chuckled, leaned over Wen Liang's back, put her arms around his neck, put her mouth close to his ear, breathed in hot air, and said in a sweet voice: "I like the way you look domineering when you talk about family rules."

Wen Liang's feet trembled and he almost fell. He could only smile bitterly in his heart, thinking that when this little girl grows up, she will be so charming that no one can stop her.

The mountain path is quiet and the beauty is like a dream.

"Hey, little brat, how many stars are there in the sky?"

"Five hundred and twenty-one million!"

"You are lying. How can you have such a specific number?"

Wen Liang smiled but said nothing. However, Xu Yao obviously did not want to dwell on the answer and continued to ask the next question: "How many hairs do I have?"

"Five hundred and twenty-one million"

"Okay, you're too lazy to even change the numbers..."

In this meaningless but enjoyable conversation, Wen Liang carried her to the foot of the mountain, where a white Toyota had been parked and waiting. After getting in the back seat with Xu Yao, Wen Liang said to the driver, "Go back to the city, drive slowly!"

Xu Yao suddenly grabbed Wen Liang's hand and said, "Oh no, I forgot about Su Su and the others. What should I do? They must be so worried!"

Wen Liang scratched her nose, and said lovingly but helplessly: "When you remember, Tang Seng went to the mountain to get the scriptures ten times. When you went up the mountain, I called Zhihe and asked him to treat the group of people to good food and drinks, and reimburse him when you go back."

Xu Yao cheered and wanted to throw herself into Wen Liang's arms again. Somehow, she found that she was very greedy for the feeling of being unobstructed and tightly connected. Wen Liang nodded to the driver in front of her, and Xu Yao screamed, quickly stopped, and her face began to flush again. In her haste, she forgot that there were outsiders here. She was not thick-skinned enough to do that.

"Where's Gao Zhan?"

Xu Yao was referring to the venomous snake that went to Su Hai with her last time. Wen Liang said calmly, "My temple is too small to keep him here. He has a better place to go."

Xu Yao was stunned and said angrily: "How could this person be like this?"

"People always strive for higher goals. I can't hinder other people's future. This is normal and no big deal."

Wen Liang's words were not entirely untrue. Lei Fang had completed his mission to invite Professor Sun to Jiangyue, and on his way back, he specially passed through Qingzhou and took Gao Zhan away. Shahe County was in need of people, and the local people were complicated. There were always thirty or fifty people gathering to fight. If they wanted to gain a firm foothold and open up the situation quickly, they needed the cooperation and support of the government on the one hand, and on the other hand, they also needed a delicate and ruthless character like Gao Zhan to calm the situation.

However, Wen Liang was in Beijing at the time, so Lei Fang greeted him over the phone. Gao Zhan had already received Wen Liang's instructions, so naturally he had no objection.

However, there was no need to tell Xu Yao these things in too much detail. This driver was Ming's man. Wen Liang didn't know much about him and was not very confident in him. There was no one available tonight, so he let him make do and would not say too much in front of him.

It was already late when they returned to Qingzhou. After sending Xu Yao to Courtyard No. 1, Aunt Zhang opened the door and smiled kindly when she saw Wen Liang. She had received instructions from Xu Fuyan and knew that today was Xu Yao's birthday. Everyone in the family was too busy to accompany her, so she had to celebrate with her friends. Wen Liang was an old acquaintance of Courtyard No. 1, so she didn't say anything.

"Auntie Zhang, you go to bed first. I'll talk to Wen Liang for a few more words and then go upstairs to sleep. Don't worry."

After Zhang Ma left, Wen Liang smiled and said, "Go in, have some rest, and see you at school tomorrow."

Hearing the word "school", Xu Yao, who had been immersed in happiness all night, finally became worried and said, "What should I do tomorrow? Su Su and Xiao Ning will definitely laugh at me..."

Wen Liang was about to speak when Xu Yao waved her hand generously and said, "Alright, alright, this is our girls' business, you shouldn't get involved as a grown man. Anyway, I don't have to worry about the debts, so just laugh if you want to. Anyway, it's not like I won't laugh at them sometimes."

Wen Liang didn't want to delve into the meaning of this. Just as he was about to say good night, he saw Xu Yao coming up to him with a red face, kissing him lightly on the lips, and then turned around and ran away.

"Little brat, remember to dream about me tonight!"

The door slammed shut, Wen Liang touched his lips, the girl's coolness and purity seemed to still linger there, not dissipating for a long time.

The next morning, the students in Class 3 were surprised to find that Wen Liang had returned to class. Their feelings towards this man who was always elusive but always won the exams had changed from envy to indifference, just like two people from completely different worlds, living their own lives without interfering with each other or influencing each other.

Just like the ten hot events that had happened on campus recently that Ren Yi was promoting to Wen Liang, Wen Liang had never heard of them, let alone imagined them.

"… Did you know that Liu Qi's positions as the president of the student union and the director of the radio station were both eliminated!"

"Ah?" Wen Liang was really surprised and asked, "Liu Qi? Wasn't he so proud when he hosted the New Year's Eve party? How long has he been the stationmaster? What happened?"

"It is said that he and a beautiful senior sister from the third year of high school used the radio station classroom to do that shameful thing in the middle of the night when no one was around..."

Although Ren Yi used the adjective "shameful", looking at the way he swallowed his saliva and his eyes turned green, it was obvious that he was "shameful why such a good thing didn't happen to me".

Wen Liang was puzzled and said, "That shouldn't be the case. That girl is very handsome and comes from a good family. If she can't hold it back anymore, won't she go out and get a room?"

Ren Yi was so angry that he clapped his hands and said, "Who said it wasn't true? With such doubts, we gossipers conducted in-depth research. Guess what happened?"

"Um?"

"What people seek is this kind of excitement that breaks through the constraints of ethics and morality..."

Wen Liang felt a pain in his forehead and said, "It's just a wild affair, how can it be related to morality and ethics?"

"Why not? Think about it, the radio station is such a sacred place. It appears in our lives three times a day, morning, noon and evening. From current affairs to gossip, from prose to music, it has accompanied us for so many days and nights, and comforted so many lonely and helpless souls. If you could pounce on a moving body there, and then moan together, and imagine that such sounds spread throughout the campus from the loudspeaker, and the people who hear it include your teachers, your roommates, and your deskmates, wouldn't that feeling break through the constraints of ethics and morality?"

Wen Liang was completely convinced and said, "Okay, then what? Just dismiss the position without any pain?"

"What else? Can he be expelled? It would be a big scandal if it gets out. The school would like to keep the peace and the student would transfer to another school. I heard that Liu Qi took sick leave recently and he probably doesn't have the face to come back. And that senior sister will take the college entrance examination in a few days. She should get out as soon as she finishes the exam."

Wen Liang frowned and said, "This is strange. Liu Qi doesn't look like a bold person. Is he too bold?"

"What's so strange about this? Some people are just mean and deceptive, unlike us who are consistent in appearance and heart. Brother Wen, you are just too kind."

Ignoring Ren Yi's boasting, Wen Liang thought for a moment and asked, "Who is that senior sister?"

Ren Yi said a name with a lewd smile, Wen Liang nodded and said, "It's her, no wonder."

Wen Liang had heard of this girl. She was a famous bus driver at No. 1 Middle School. She was indeed pretty, especially her skin which was so tender that it would produce water if you pinched it. She was considered Bemi's predecessor, but her record was much more brilliant than hers.

If it were her words, Liu Qi's nonsense would be justified. Wen Liang didn't think about it anymore and asked casually, "What else is the big deal?"

"There's one more thing. It's not a big deal, but I don't think you'll be happy to hear it..."

"Ha, tell me about it."

"Gu Wenyuan may become the next director of the radio station!"

Wen Liang suddenly raised his head, and the smile on his lips looked quite strange.

Life in high school is actually quite monotonous. Apart from the three points and one line, the only things that can arouse everyone's enthusiasm and attention are the student union and the radio station, which can be called official organizations. The student union is mainly responsible for assisting the political and educational department in attendance and inspection. There are this group of people wearing armbands and showing off their power during morning exercises, break exercises, evening self-study, and after the lights are turned off in the dormitory. Occasionally, they will hide under the school wall with Hua Xique to catch escaped prisoners who do not return home at night. In general, the student union in high school has a bad reputation, which is completely different from that in college. It is almost the spokesperson for the school's lackeys and accomplices. Therefore, a mere chairman is not a big deal, and classmates don't take it seriously.

The status of the radio station is completely different. No. 1 Middle School was the first in Qingzhou to realize informatization and set up a school radio station and TV station. Cable TV is installed in each classroom. The school will watch the news broadcast on time at 7 o'clock in the evening. Every Saturday afternoon, there will be two hours to watch the movies selected by the school. Wen Liang in his previous life watched Titanic for the first time in the classroom of his senior year of high school. He admired Kate Winslet's beautiful breasts with his classmates. The boys were stunned but deliberately looked at the girls around them with a smirk. The girls covered their faces with their hands but secretly shot shy glances through their fingers. Thinking back to that scene many years later, not only did it not have a bit of lust, but it made me miss the innocence of that era even more.

I have said so much just to illustrate the importance of the radio station, and the school's selection process also illustrates this point. Unlike the student union, where each class randomly recommends candidates, as long as you have good relationships and want to be in the student union, you can usually be selected. To enter the radio station, you must pass three levels. First, you are selected by your class, then the school organizes teachers to conduct preliminary review, and finally you have to give a speech. Mandarin, body shape and demeanor, and on-the-spot performance are all within the scope of examination. The strictness is not comparable to the talent shows of later generations, but at least it is one in a hundred.

There are more than 3,000 students in No. 1 Middle School, but only ten were selected!

Therefore, being able to become the director of a radio station proves that you have reached the top among the students of No. 1 Middle School!

Liu Qi is a student in Class 4 of Grade 2. He has been quite famous in the school since his freshman year. He is good at basketball, has excellent grades, and is handsome. Therefore, the previous chairman stepped down in accordance with regulations when he was in his junior year, and Liu Qi took over immediately. No one had any objection to this.

But getting into the radio station is not as easy as getting into the student union. It was not until shortly before the New Year's Eve party that Liu Qi finally became the first person in the history of No. 1 Middle School to serve as both the president of the student union and the director of the radio station. This is truly an honor.

But behind every glory, there must be someone who is embarrassed. It is said that one of the hot candidates for the station director was Gu Wenyuan, but for some reason, the name list was deleted by the principal after it was submitted. (For this foreshadowing, please refer to Chapter 31 of Volume 4, Tonight is Your Youth)

It happened that Wen Liang was busy fighting floods in Qingzhou during that time and had no mood to care about what was happening in the school, so he didn't know the inside story of Gu Wenyuan's failure in the competition with Liu Qi. But given Master Gu's temperament, he would not be willing to give up.

I just didn't expect that Gu Wenyuan, who always took revenge, would become so forbearing. In order to discredit Liu Qi, he would spend half a year planning. Amazing, really amazing! (To be continued)
