Panda Cub, So Cute and Fierce 45

Chapter 45: Surprise

=====================

The homeroom teacher couldn’t help but laugh at the dean of students’ exasperated expression. “You have quite an opinion of Junior He, don’t you?”

The dean of students huffed. “How can I not? You count how much trouble she’s caused me.”

From the moment she enrolled until now, how many times had she had to clean up her messes!

The homeroom teacher let out a muffled laugh. Although she was saying that He Jingsu had caused her a lot of trouble, she didn’t seem to be truly angry at all. On the contrary, she seemed to like her very much.

But speaking of that child, He Jingsu, few people would dislike her, right? Not to mention that they had practically watched her grow up. Her dazed and cute personality had captured the hearts of many.

“Sigh, it’s all because I watched their family’s variety show back then,” the homeroom teacher sighed, shaking her head. It was because she had watched it that she had developed a bit of a motherly eye.

“Who hasn’t?” the dean of students huffed.

Looking at the list in her hand, she thought about it and decided to let it go. That one was so clingy with Bei Queting. If she separated them, there was no telling what kind of trouble she would cause.

He Jingsu and Bei Queting’s performance passed without a hitch. The time they had to prepare for the gala was not long, but not short either. Half a month was enough for them.

After Bei Queting told her the song she would be singing, He Jingsu immediately began to conceive of the painting based on the mood of the song.

Although Bei Queting looked calm and composed, she was a super good singer. Her singing was particularly beautiful.

At night, when it was time to sleep, He Jingsu lay in Bei Queting’s arms, lifted her head, and said, “Beibei, can you sing for me?”

Although Beibei’s singing was particularly beautiful, it was a pity that she rarely sang.

Hearing her request, Bei Queting’s ears grew a little hot. Although she was a little shy, she couldn’t bear to refuse. She gently pinched her little ear and her eyebrows curved into a smile.

“Two tigers, two tigers, run so fast, run so fast, one has no tail, one has no ears, so strange, so strange…”

Her gentle voice, singing a childish children’s song, was also holding back a little laugh.

He Jingsu was stunned at first, and after she finished singing, she huffed softly. “I’m a panda, and I have ears!”

As she spoke, she moved the ear that Bei Queting was pinching.

When she was four years old, she had just brought Beibei back. At that time, their family was still filming a parent-child variety show, and He Jingsu had sung this song on the show.

Bei Queting had listened to it all day, listening until she was in a daze.

“Of course, I know you’re a panda,” Bei Queting chuckled softly. The little ear under her fingertips was fluffy, and the feel was particularly good. No wonder Grandma He always liked to pinch her ears when she held her.

He Jingsu nuzzled her face with her head. “I want to hear other songs.”

Bei Queting ruffled her head, thinking that it was a good thing there was a soundproofing barrier. Otherwise, if Xia Mu heard her singing so late at night, it might scare her.

Next, under Bei Queting’s gentle voice, He Jingsu’s eyelids grew heavier and heavier, and she slowly fell asleep on her.

Holding the cub in her arms, Bei Queting also began to look forward to the two of them growing up quickly. After they grew up, would it be a different scene?

During the evening self-study time thereafter, those who had signed up for a performance could skip self-study and go to the music room or other places to practice.

During evening self-study, He Jingsu and the others found a music room. He Jingsu’s sand table and other things had also been sent to the school, so the two of them could practice their coordination.

“Daidai, have you thought about what to draw?” Bei Queting asked.

He Jingsu’s eyebrows curved into a smile. “I’ll just draw us.”

Bei Queting blinked slightly, then slowly smiled.

That was good too.

After all, that song was also for her.

Listening to Bei Queting sing “Little,” which echoed in the empty music room, He Jingsu’s hand, which was holding the fine sand, did not move for a long time. She listened attentively to the song surrounding her, the light in her eyes growing more and more obvious.

After listening to the song, He Jingsu tilted her head, and the more she thought about it, the happier she became. “Beibei, is the person in your heart me?”

Bei Queting’s face gradually reddened. Meeting He Jingsu’s eyes, she was suddenly speechless. The confirmation was a little too embarrassing, but the denial was also false, and she might be sad.

She pressed her lips together, wanting to say something but unable to.

He Jingsu suddenly said, very understandingly, “Even if Beibei doesn’t say it, I know that person must be me. Beibei doesn’t say it because she’s shy!”

She was very certain when she said the last sentence.

Beibei was always easily shy, so of course, she had to be considerate of her shyness!

“But Beibei, I have something to say!” He Jingsu’s face was serious.

“Hm?” Bei Queting bit her lip and replied softly.

“I will never forget you in the future, and I will kiss you!” He Jingsu’s expression was still very serious and earnest!

Bei Queting was speechless.

She recalled He Jingsu’s two kisses on her lips. That was called a kiss, not a kiss?

Bei Queting was silent for a long time, but in the end, she did not correct her understanding. She nodded, her voice a little light. “Mhm, you will kiss me.”

There would always be a day in the future.

He Jingsu was very happy. She recalled the song that Beibei had just sung, and a general idea had already formed in her mind. She and Beibei had grown up together, so of course, she had to draw their childhood innocence!

Bei Queting watched from the side as her fingertips moved nimbly on the sand table, her expression gentle. Even just sitting quietly by her side like this felt peaceful.

As He Jingsu embellished and filled in, two small figures gradually appeared on the sand table, almost a replica of He Jingsu and Bei Queting when they were little.

The two small figures held hands, joyful and unrestrained, giving off a feeling of mutual understanding.

A smile appeared on Bei Queting’s lips. Looking at the two faces on the sand table, she hadn’t expected that after so many years, Daidai could still remember what she looked like when she was little.

One painting after another, like the passage of time, the people in the paintings grew older and older, just like the two of them on their journey of growth.

Calculating the time to end, the picture finally stopped at the back of two girls sitting side by side. He Jingsu turned to look at Bei Queting, her face full of a look of asking for praise. “Beibei, is it pretty?”

Bei Queting slowly nodded, her gaze soft as she looked at the picture in the sand table. How wonderful. The two of them had walked from their youth to the present, and in the future, the two of them would also go from naive to mature, and she would always be by her side.

Having gotten her approval, the tuft of fur on He Jingsu’s head also twitched a lot. She began to practice, trying to make her movements more fluid and integrate with Bei Queting’s rhythm.

Bei Queting hummed softly in He Jingsu’s ear, and He Jingsu drew to the song. The atmosphere was so harmonious that even the dean of students, who was passing by the door, couldn’t bear to disturb them.

Seeing this situation, the dean of students even began to look forward to what their work would be like when it was presented at the gala.

Qiu Si was practicing in another music room. She was originally alone, but halfway through, someone pushed open the door to her music room.

Qiu Si looked up and saw Hai Yuesheng come in with two cups of milk tea, grinning at her.

“Si Si, are you tired? Warm up a little?”

Qiu Si stopped her movements. For some reason, she didn’t want Hai Yuesheng to hear how she played so early.

That way, there would be no feeling of first hearing.

She took the milk tea from her hand and took a sip. It was her favorite flavor, and her eyebrows curved. “Why are you here?”

“I wanted to see you,” Hai Yuesheng said directly.

Qiu Si blinked slightly, a little embarrassed.

“Si Si, I made a guide!” Hai Yuesheng said very happily. “I’m going to college in Lanyang City, so I made a guide to the food, drink, and fun in Lanyang City. When I have the chance in the future, I’ll take you to play all over that city!”

Qiu Si drank her milk tea and listened to her plan, blinking, then slowly smiled.

“Okay, you can take me to play then,” Qiu Si said softly.

Hai Yuesheng giggled.

**

As the gala drew closer, the time left to prepare for the performances became more and more tight. And the end of the gala also meant that the third-year students were about to graduate.

The closer it got to this time, the more Hai Yuesheng clung to Qiu Si, wishing she could spend all her free time by her side.

Because their relationship was uncertain, it would inevitably make Hai Yuesheng feel a little uneasy.

After all, when the two of them were in two different places, even though they were demons and could teleport, there would still be some inconveniences. At least, it was not convenient for the two of them to walk on the street, as it was not convenient to explain how she was at school one moment and at Qiu Si’s place the next.

Qiu Si was a little helpless at her clingy behavior, but she still indulged her closeness.

“Si Si, have you practiced your piece well?” He Jingsu asked curiously.

Qiu Si pressed her lips together and said softly, “I have.”

She was already proficient in musical instruments and had not relaxed her practice. Even if she were to go on stage now, she would not be afraid at all.

“Oh, that’s good. The senior also asked me to ask you if she has affected you,” He Jingsu muttered, easily selling out Hai Yuesheng.

Qiu Si saw Daidai’s unconscious act of selling someone out and smiled softly. “Then next time she asks you to ask about these things, you can just let her come and ask me herself.”

“Mhm! Wouldn’t it be faster to just ask you directly! She’s so stupid!” He Jingsu nodded with a serious expression.

Qiu Si blinked slightly. Hearing Daidai say that Hai Yuesheng was stupid, she began to wonder what Hai Yuesheng’s expression would be if she heard this.

He Jingsu didn’t have much time to think about Hai Yuesheng’s matters now. She was currently thinking about the plot of the TV series she had secretly watched last night. It was said that during a relationship, you should prepare small surprises for your girlfriend!

The TV series said that this was a sense of ceremony in a relationship!

She began to think about what surprise she should give Beibei.

“Si Si, what kind of gift do you think you should give in a relationship?” He Jingsu asked, rubbing her chin. The bags and jewelry that were given in the TV shows, she subconsciously felt that Beibei would not like these things.

After all, she had never seen Beibei buy these things.

“Huh?” Qiu Si’s eyes suddenly widened. Was Daidai asking her?

“I-I’ve never been in a relationship, and I’ve never given anything.”

Looking at Daidai’s soft and dazed face, but she was deliberately putting on a thoughtful look, Qiu Si was so amused that her eyes curved into a smile.

“I’ll go back and ask my mom for you. Mommy said that Mom was very good at pursuing people back then!”

He Jingsu blinked. Was her grandaunt very good at pursuing people? She didn’t look like it.

Zhou Li, who was sitting in front of them, heard their words and was almost driven to death with anxiety. She turned around and said, “Isn’t it easy to create a surprise in a relationship? You even have to go back and ask your parents! You’re really brave!”

Zhou Li was so impressed with them that she could have prostrated herself. Puppy love was one thing, but to even ask your parents how to create a surprise? This was too wild!

The two of them’s gazes immediately fell on Zhou Li, and they asked in unison, “Then how do you do it?”

When it came to this, Zhou Li became excited. She directly stood up and sat backward on her chair to face them, starting to guide these two love rookies.

“First of all, what do girls like? They like flowers! Even if they don’t usually look at flowers much, they will still be very happy if someone gives them flowers! Especially if the person who gives them is someone they like!”

Zhou Li recalled how Bei Queting was with He Jingsu. She felt that even if she gave her a rock, she would still happily accept it and keep it well!

What a deep and ardent love!

Zhou Li sighed. He Jingsu was with Bei Queting at such a young age. How many detours had she avoided!

He Jingsu was a little thoughtful after hearing this. It seemed to be true. In the TV shows, they would hold a bouquet of flowers or something.

“But in the TV shows, apart from giving flowers, they also give other things.”

Zhou Li propped her chin on her palm and smiled.

“You can just give yourself to her.”

“Your Beibei will definitely be very happy.”
