My Underachieving Seatmate Doesn't Need Any ComfortingChapter 42

Did he just ask him to tie it for him right in front of everyone?

Qiao Ruan, Yang Xiaolong, Qiao Zongmin, all three of Qiao Shao’s blood relatives have never enjoyed this kind of treatment! Rni01s

Qiao Shao stared at him. “Didn’t you say you could do anything?”

“Of course, I can’t.” He Shen said, “I just score very high on tests, win contest, play basketball, do calligraphy, play the piano and the violin …”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

“Okay!” Qiao Shao was convinced by this scoundrel, “You’re amazing, I’m amazed.”

He got closer to tie his necktie. qRGLJO

He Shen was at least 1.88 meters, and Qiao Shao was only a little over 1.6 meters. This height difference made it difficult for Qiao Shao to work. It wasn’t that he was unable to reach. It was just that it was difficult to see from where he was. If it was too tight, it will be uncomfortable; too loose and it would look tasteless.

Qiao Shao, who had been influenced by his granddad, was very particular about this matter.

He Shen looked down at him, the corner of his lips ticking up.

Qiao Shao was just thinking about standing on tiptoe when he caught sight of his expression…

etrga9

Young Master Qiao pulled him down hard.

—Stand on tiptoes?

No way!

He Shen was startled but his smile immediately turned deeper. He cooperated obediently and leaned forward, closer to Qiao Shao. etNJlh

The two acted like there was no one else present. It was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop.

Lou Xiao glanced at them. Hands in his pockets, he took his leave.

His eyes stung! He wasn’t sure if they were kissing or not, but probably not. Otherwise, all the people around them would have blown up. In order to avoid being bombed, the school tyrant, wisely seized the chance to slip away.

Wei Jiayu was in the dorm, primping for half an hour. It was only once he felt he looked incomparably handsome did he leave to go to class.

He was late and naturally, missed the wonderful moment, but while passing by a group of girls, he heard their “little secrets”.

“Ah, I’m dead! That necktie tying was fatal!”

“Sisters, from now on I am firmly HeQiao! This pairing is just too sweet!” taFYxh

“??? What about our school tyrant!”

“What about him? He keeps so many girls around him, it served him right to be green-hatted!”

“But girls have always come and gone for our school tyrant. Only god He Shen’s position has been iron-clad!”

“No, no, no! Our He Shen does not deserve this slag shou. He has a new cutie now.” dG7o 6

Wei Jiayu: “…”

Girls were really scary. Wei Jiayu, who has two elder sisters at home, was deeply moved by this fact.

In this day and age, the more open-minded boys knew of this kind of topic of the girls’.

Wei Jiayu has two twin sisters who were only three years older than him and thus he knew a bit more about this topic than the average boy. HgrM9y

He heard their discussion and couldn’t help chuckling.

Tut, what did they know? They couldn’t see who the real couple was. All they knew was to blindly pair people up.

Xiao Ge and Shen Ge aside, now they were pairing up Shen Ge and the little poor ghost…

What were they thinking? The two they completely ignored was the true pair here! Lou Xiao and Qiao Shao! mI6NtS

But the ‘informed’ Wei Jiayu would never tell them. It’s okay to play around casually, but the truth must be kept secret.

After all, Xiao Ge’s family situation was very complicated…

But … Wei Jiayu also heard something concerning behind him.

Qiao Shao tied Shen Ge’s necktie? Weren’t these two too close? biMSf2

Fortunately, Brother Xiao hadn’t seen it, otherwise, wouldn’t a fight between brothers break out?

En, Wei Jiayu pondered the matter. Looks like he’ll have to find some time to remind Qiao Shao to pay a little bit more attention and not go too far.

 

Naturally, Qiao Shao had absolutely no idea about any of these. He and He Shen returned to the classroom. As soon as they sat down, Song Yixu said enviously, “Your neckties are tied so well!” x0csCq

Neatly done but not rigid, upright but not tight, fashionable, snug and elegant. Simply awesome!

He Shen calmly said, “Qiao Shao was quite capable.”

Song Yixu immediately understood. “Wow! Shao Ge tied it for you?”

Qiao Shao glared at He Shen. Your cockiness just made additional trouble for me! uOdLb1

He Shen froze for half a second, and he quickly raised his eyebrows. “I’ll help you.”

Song Yixu looked at him. “Ah? Shen Ge, but you don’t know how to, do you?”

He Shen said, “I can’t do it for myself, but I can try tying it for other people.”

“So that’s it!” Song Yixu believed him. “Okay, okay! Anyone, just please help me tie this. This is freaking annoying!” hGKIDv

Qiao Shao watched from the side, sneering in his heart. This big liar! If he could do it for others, then why didn’t he tie it first then put it around his own neck? Sure enough, he was playing with him again!

He Shen said to Song Yixu, “Come here.”

Song ‘the fool’ Yixu walked over and said, “Don’t tie it too tightly, I’m afraid … ah …”

Song Yixu suddenly finished with a squawk. eG uE0

He Shen swiftly tied it into a tight knot, strapped right against his throat.

Song Yixu cried out loudly, “What are you doing? Shen Ge, do you want to murder your own classmate? Ah, ah, I’m dying, I can’t breathe.”

He Shen clapped his hands and said, “If you can’t breathe, I suggest you talk less.”

Only then did Song Yixu feel the chill in the air. Although he didn’t know how he had offended the god of learning, he no longer dared to act so unbridled and he immediately went to find Jie Kai. 8edYco

Jie Kai looked at the tight knot on his neck and laughed mercilessly. “Poop-faced Song, what’s with that get up? Did you completely give up on yourself after having your name changed?”

Song Yixu was a very miserable man. “Help me untie it, I’m going to suffocate!”

“Pfft!” Qiao Shao laughed. “What are you doing? What did he do to provoke you?” jx4b7k

He Shen sneered, “He couldn’t even tie his own necktie, he needed to be taught a little lesson.”

Qiao Shao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You talk like you know how.”

“I needed your help,” he turned to look at him, “but I won’t let your effort go to waste.”

Qiao Shao looked at him with a smile. “How?” OHUTX7

He Shen said, “I’ll give you extra lessons and you’ll tie my necktie for me. It’s a good deal, right?”

Qiao Shao corrected him, “You teach me the lessons and I’ll teach you how to tie a necktie.”

He Shen said, “I won’t learn how to.”

Teacher Qiao’s words were very meaningful and heartfelt. “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” MCDdNd

He Shen said, “It’s enough that you know how to.”

Qiao Shao laughed. “Would I be able to tie your necktie for you your entire life?”

He Shen didn’t answer because his heart in his chest suddenly gave a hard thud.

Your entire life…… HVLBea

With these three words, an indescribable sweetness poured into his throat.

He Shen lay on the desk and whispered quietly, “What’s so bad about that?”

Unfortunately, his voice was too low. Qiao Shao didn’t hear it at all. He pulled his clothes and said, “Why do you have to sleep again? What did you think noon break was for?”

At this time, the teacher entered the classroom, and Qiao ‘good student’ Shao immediately shut up and listened to the class. 1P0q2L

The god of learning can be willful but he can’t. He can’t afford not to listen to every word the teacher says!

This weekend was just a short holiday. There was no rest on Friday evening and they couldn’t go home until Saturday afternoon.

Qiao Shao called Qiao Zongmin early on. “Dad, I won’t be going back this week.” V57GbJ

Qiao Zongmin felt very guilty. “Why aren’t you coming home?”

This careful tone, he was afraid that his son had gotten angry with him and that was why he wasn’t going home.

Qiao Shao said gently. “I’ll go home on Saturday only to have to go back to school on Sunday. It’s too much trouble and I have a lot of homework.”

Qiao Zongmin asked, “You’re going to stay over at your friend’s again?” YKeDyg

“Yeah,” Qiao Shao said, “It’ll be very boring for him if he’s by himself so I’m going to keep him company.”

His son was able to keep other people company now. Qiao Zongmin was a little bit emotional. He said, “Okay, but don’t focus so much on studying. You should remember to have fun with your friends.”

If this were any other parent, it would no doubt be the other way round — don’t just play! Go study!

Qiao Shao agreed and when he was about to hang up, Qiao Zongmin asked tactfully, “You’re not still angry about what happened, right? It’s your Uncle Chen’s fault. I’m going to deduct his salary!” Qiao Zongmin was very quick in passing the buck to others. tYLRsA

Qiao Shao said quietly, “Why are you deducting Uncle Chen’s salary? You were the one who obviously didn’t arrange it well!”

Qiao Zongmin quickly said again, “Then I won’t deduct it!”

Qiao Shao also knew that his dad was just coaxing him to be happy, and that he wouldn’t really mess around like that. He said, “Okay, it’s all right.”

Hanging up, Qiao Shao paused for a while. Yr7tR2

Before, Qiao Zongmin wouldn’t do something like this. He followed the principle that children should be allowed their freedom. He complained constantly that he was disturbing their sweet life as husband and wife, and he was quick to throw him out to “see the world”.

But now……

Seeing his father so beset with imaginary fears, Qiao Shao felt very upset.

Let’s take it easy. One step at a time. dRnQzI

Qiao Shao clenched his mobile phone and said quietly, “It will be okay, it’ll get better.”

 

Chrysanthemum Garden.

That night, Chen Su and Qiao Shao were planning to discuss the difficult points in today’s lessons before going to bed…

Wei Jiayu came back with a bag of snacks. “We’re having a meeting.” dNUh H

Chen Su and Qiao Shao looked at the contents of the bag — milk, bread, and self-heating hot pot

Ok, they can have this meeting!

Qiao Shao really liked the self-heating hot pot. He hasn’t had the chance to eat it before.

Wei Jiayu sneered at him. “Poor ghost.” gwsfUZ

How could he have ever imagined that it was because the other was too rich that he never had the opportunity to try this kind of instant hot pot…

Their benefactor was so generous, that two beneficiaries put down their books and listened carefully to his discussion.

Wei Jiayu sat across from them, cleared his throat and said, “Today, I will introduce you to Xiao Ge …”

Chen Su and Qiao Shao looked stunned, but for the sake of deliciousness, they listened to Blue Hair. iHd AY

“Xiao Ge had a girlfriend before. She was a high school sophomore sister. She was sweet and cute, an honest to goodness little beauty.” He glanced meaningfully at Qiao Shao.

Qiao Shao was surprised. Blue Hair, you’ve got some guts to gossip about the school tyrant’s private life. Are you tired of living?

Wei Jiayu saw that Qiao Shao was “nervous”, and he emphasized the key points even more. “At that time, among the sophomores there was a particularly reckless playboy who was pursuing her. He even insisted she join him to go play during the holiday. Can you guess what happened afterwards?”

Chen Su, the top student, was completely uninterested. “…” zoAS8R

Qiao Shao though was very curious. “What?”

Wei Jiayu stared at him and said, “Xiao Ge threw that playboy a single punch that gave him a concussion!”

Qiao Shao sucked in his breath. — Lou Xiao was really too fierce!

Wei Jiayu snorted, “Do you understand?” 5yEJb1

Qiao Shao nodded repeatedly. “I understand, I understand …”

He must keep his distance from the school tyrant, so as to avoid having any innocents harmed.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Seeing that Qiao Shao was now suitably afraid, Wei Jiayu stressed to him. “I trust you … en, I mean you can draw your own conclusions from this incident.”

“Yes, yes.” Qiao Shao has definitely drawn his conclusions. 0FZkJG

Wei Jiayu was satisfied. “Remember, Xiao Ge’s desire to monopolize is very strong.”

So you need to behave yourself and not toy with flowers and grass!

Qiao Shao: “?”

What does this have to do with his desire to monopolize? Don’t tell me this wasn’t about his awesome fighting strength? nTpUPx

However, Wei Jiayu had already adjourned the meeting and he had climbed into his bed to play games.

Qiao Shao thought about it but he wasn’t going to waste his time asking.

There was still 15 minutes before the bell for lights out. He and Chen Su still had time to review today’s difficult points.

  gRqLb

After school on Saturday, Qiao Shao packed up a bag full of books, ready to go home with He Shen.

He Shen reached out and said, “Give it here.”

Qiao Shao was putting the bag on his shoulder. “No, I can carry it myself.”

He Shen directly took it and hung it on his own left shoulder. dwPfmb

Qiao Shao said, “It’s heavy.”

“It’s not.”

Qiao Shao knew that it was. “You don’t have to force yourself.”

He Shen’s glanced at him from out the corner of his eye. “You think I can’t carry you with my other arm?” OiYTnh

Qiao Shao: “………………”

Nope! He can’t afford to provoke him. You can’t afford to provoke these people with strength way beyond that of ordinary people’s!

Qiao Shao went to He Shen’s rental apartment for the second time. It had only been two weeks since he’d last seen this place, but now he was seeing it in a whole new light.

At that time, when he saw the foreign books in the study, he thought — ‘this slacker was being so pretentious!’ Now … he pulled out a book and asked, “Is this a programming book?” D8drAh

It looked like a dictionary. Fortunately Qiao Shao was good at English, and he could barely understands what the book was about.

He Shen handed him a cup of hot milk. “Yeah.”

Qiao Shao asked curiously, “What do you read these for? For competitions?”

He Shen paused and said, “I use it to eat.” jndp q

Qiao Shao took his glass of milk and asked, “Eat?”

He Shen ruffled his soft short hair and said, “A man must have some means to support his family.”

Qiao Shao: “???”

Then, He Shen’s cellphone rang, and he answered the phone. “Come on up, I’m home.” E8nUAJ

He hung up the phone and said to Qiao Shao, “Let’s go. I’m taking you out to eat some delicious food.”

He Shen sought Lou Xiao’s help before and had promised to invite him to eat at Hutchison’s on the weekend.

Qiao Shao asked, “We’re going out to eat? With whom?”

He Shen said, “You know both of them. Lou Xiao and Wei Jiayu.” 2Br6Fe

Qiao Shao nodded. He had listened to He Shen’s half of the conversation and it seems that Lou Xiao and Wei Jiayu were already both here so he didn’t want to waste any more time.

He said, “I can’t finish my milk.”

“It’s okay, you can just leave it.”

Qiao Shao nodded, there was a high tea table next to him and he had just set it down when… 5EzU3L

“Be careful.” He Shen pulled him into his arms, avoiding the spilled milk.

With a slam, the milk was spilled on the ground and the milk glass broke.

Please support our translators at chrysanthemumgarden (dot) com

Qiao Shao looked distressed!

He was so careless that he didn’t notice that the tea table was slightly tilted. No wonder nothing was placed on it! UNOYyn

“You weren’t burned, were you?” He Shen asked, picking up his hand.

Qiao Shao shook his head. “No.”

At this moment, the door opened. Lou Xiao, had his own key and was used to coming in without asking and thus…

The school tyrant’s dead-eyed stare came online. My bad, I’ll knock next time. F0WfJd

Wei Jiayu was stupefied.

WTF! What are you two doing!

Snuggling up to each other, holding hands! Shen Ge’s chin was resting on top of the little poor ghost’s head!

Wei Jiayu turned his head stiffly and saw the ‘angered to death’ expression on the school tyrant’s face! e 8HNP

It’s over!

He wanted to eat at Hutchison’s? Maybe he should be thinking about how to run away instead!

The author has something to say: Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
