The flag raising ceremony has always been hosted by the third-year queen of the school.
She’s number one in the school for debate, recital and singing. When she read lines, her voice was resonant.
Today was no exception, her high and sharp voice had some haughtiness in this cold morning.
She first introduced the flag bearer and protector for a long time and then announced:
“Now raising the national flag, play the national anthem, everyone stand straight and pay attention!”
Along with the line “Arise! All who refuse to be slaves!”, all the students were drowsy, they were shivering and staring at the rising red flag, who knew what they were thinking about.
Xiao Qin was arranged behind me by the committee member, I guess they felt that because of my body type I could easily cover Xiao Qin who didn’t wear the school uniform.
“Ha ha, a blessing in disguise?”
Xiao Qin spoke to herself.
“Although I didn’t wear matching outfits with Ye Lin classmate, I’m able to stand so close to him during the flag raising ceremony?’
I completely ignored her.
When the national anthem reached “Let’s build our new Great Wall!”, I felt Xiao Qin poking me with her finger from behind.
I ignored her, as a result she kept on poking and added sounds as well:
“Poke, poke, poke…”
“Who are you poking? Do you want to die!”
I seethed with anger but I didn’t turn around to look at her.
The more I looked at her the more annoying she’ll get.
“It seems like Ye Lin classmate isn’t happy…”
Xiao Qin finally stopped poking me.
“No shit, you switched the box that brother Optimus Prime, do you think I’ll be happy?”
Hearing that, Xiao Qin stammered.
“I was wrong… I made Ye Lin classmate get happy for nothing, I’m really sorry…”
“Sorry? How many times have you apologized to me? You’re already lost all credibility in my eyes!”
“B-but I was just bewitched for a moment! If I returned all the toys to Ye Lin classmate, then Ye Lin classmate might ignore me! If you ignore me, I’ll die!”
“Tsk, do you think you’re a hamster? You’ll die from loneliness?”
“Un…if I can be liked by Ye Lin classmate if I turn into a hamster, then I’ll turn into a hamster without the slightest hesitation!”
What the hell, do you think you’re Sun Wukong and can change whenever you like? Even if you get plastic surgery in Korea, its impossible to become a hamster, right?
“That… Ye Lin classmate, out of those photos that I gave you, do you have any you like?”
She finally mentioned those photos, as expected she hoped me to pick one and put it beside my bed to look at everyday.
She doesn’t even think about what kind of torment it is.
“Your photos? Ah, those wicked stuff, I’ve already sealed it up with taoist talismans! I won’t let them out to harm people!”
“How could you!”
Xiao Qin made another wail.
This time the committee member brought another person over, taking a closer look it was Eunuch Cao, Cao JingShen.
Not only did Cao JingShen not wear the school uniform, he was also late by 10 minutes. He was now standing to my right carrying his backpack.
After Xiao Qin noticed that another boy was standing next to me, she stopped speaking immediately and nervously shrank behind me.
Eh? Is your gender cognitive disorder still not cured? Are you that afraid to be in contact with males of your own age? We had thorough contact on Saturday at your house! I still remember the taste of your tongue!
At this time, the national anthem was over and the most beautiful girl in our school again announced:
“Next up, we have a speech by year 2 class 1’s student representative Xu Yan!”
A wave of dispersed applause, mainly from the students in the front row.
The short girl called Xu Yan stood up there and read from her text word by word.
“In the face of the bright red five-star flag, our hearts undulate, and our blood boils. Remember, for centuries, the Chinese people have suffered from a history of invasions and humiliation…”
Again with the invasions and humiliations, can’t you change-up what you talk about?
Humph, if I was the student representative, my patriotic speech would be much more inspiring than hers! Her tone is just that of a resentful woman!
If it was me, I would tell everyone how the Chinese people should get revenge, I don’t even have to talk about the Japanese devils, but we also can’t let Indonesia and Vietnam off. Although Russia owes us more than 1.5 million square kilometers of territory, we can’t have a fall out with them now. We should first start with India, with the support of our close brother Pakistan, we’ll first win back South Tibet! Anyways, we already have the Qinghai-Tibet railway, it isn’t 1962 self-defense counterattack of the China-India border anymore!
Ah, if old man Zhang knew what I was thinking, he’ll admonish me as a little fascist again.
But the Chinese have been bullied for so many years, when can we get payback? There is an ancient saying, one who does not exact revenge is not a gentleman, aren’t we a country of gentleman?
Just because the international environment changed and everyone wants to develop peacefully, are all previous debts invalidated?
I suddenly felt that my experiences were like China’s, both were very miserable.
When I was thin and weak, I was bullied by Little Tyrant to the point where I would wish for death. I finally grew stronger and wanted to find Little Tyrant for revenge, but it ended up with him saying that he was actually a girl and he hates fighting.
Sneaking a look at Xiao Qin behind me, her head was lowered and her expression was covered by her bangs. She had a reserved stance, if anyone else saw, they would think that she was a quite girl who was afraid of strangers, eh?
I really can’t lay my hands on this kind of Xiao Qin, but, I could be like China and impose economic sanctions on other countries, I could probably use soft violence against Xiao Qin, right?
That’s right, the checkered book that Xiao Qin copied on Friday, as the chief labor contractor I should pay her wage of 1000 yuan.
Sorry, don’t even think about this money.
I often see on newspapers where the chief labor contractor are behind on paying salary. In the end, the migrant workers kills themselves by jumping off a building.
If I embezzled Xiao Qin’s pay, this kind of despicable conduct, she must hate me, right?
Oh wait, she didn’t even know you get paid for it, I’ll let her know next time.
Not only would I let her know, I’ll tell her the pay is very good but I wont even give her a cent of it. I won’t even buy her a popsicle, I’ll enjoy it by myself and anger her to death.
I obviously don’t know how I’m going to spend it yet, but most likely I’ll donate it to the Jet Li One Foundation Project.
In the end, it’s Ai Mi’s money, I’m not hurt over an American’s money.
The flag raising ceremony reached the point where the school leaders started speaking, first was the old principal that didn’t have much hair left. He stood on the platform and said:
“Does everyone still remember me? I am… your principal!”
The old principal’s comical look made everyone laugh.
The vice-principal pushed the old principal and chased him off the stage.
It’s said that the old principal was retiring soon, the vice-principal would succeed as the principal, so he has basically regarded himself as the leader.
But the students preferred the old principal, because he didn’t like putting on airs, liked to tell jokes, and often strolled into classrooms after class to see how the students are doing, you couldn’t go wrong with talking with the principal about whatever you were worried about.
Of course, the vice-principal and the headteacher were very dissatisfied with his methods of doing things. They felt that he caused problems for the school leaders and made everyone not respect them.
They even spread rumors that the old principal had Alzheimer’s that’s why he didn’t act like a principal.
I think that if Alzheimer’s could make a principal so popular, then let all the principals in the world get Alzheimer’s.
After the old principal was chased off the stage, it was the vice-principals turn for his long and annoying speech.
He first talked about examination issues, then health and finally said that puppy love was extremely dangerous.
The headteacher standing behind the vice-principal was unhappy, this owl-like auntie always felt that she was in charge of matters regarding early love and that the vice-principal shouldn’t overstep his bounds, but he was the next principal.
Cao JingShen standing on my right side couldn’t hold on anymore.
His bag was large and heavy, but I bet that there weren’t many textbooks inside, it was definitely full of some strange things that undermined social stability and unity. He might have even took the female classmates nude PS photos and made it into a calendar, planning to make a huge profit in the neighboring classes.
The bag was heavy enough to make him huffing for breath. Seeing that neither Xiao Qin or I was talking, Cao JingShen started talking with me.
“Leader Ye, my father feels that it really is a pity that you didn’t act in his micro film! That Jin Ling Young Thug role was tailored for you!”
My face dropped.
“Are you saying that I’m suited to act as villains?”
Cao JingShen quickly smiled apologetically:
“No no, what this disciple is saying, master’s acting skills are superb and any role should be very easy for you! Also, that body full of muscles is perfect for film!”
I keep feeling that whenever the Cao father and son pair mention my muscles, they’re talking about porn films.
“I don’t want to act it at all, let Director Cao find someone else and don’t delay business.”
Cao JingShen nodded.
“Master is right, film waits for no one. Over the weekend my father went to the theater school, he hasn’t found anyone suitable yet, but he’ll probably choose someone from there. ”
I felt relieved after hearing Cao JingShen say that, this kind of thing should have been left to professionals in the first place.
“But father still cannot forget you, he says that even if you won’t act as Jin Ling Young Thug, he wants to find someone with a similar disposition to yours.”
I hope there’s someone like that in theater school. But if you went to the theater school and looked like me, wouldn’t that be a tragedy?
I suddenly remembered that when the old principal often strolled into our class before, he often encouraged the students to develop in all directions.
He told us that although 28 Middle was a normal middle school, there were many alumni who became famous actors!
Because we were psychically close to that film city, we had an advantage, sometimes the productions crew would come here to find extras.
Some students were taken a fancy to by a director, then they were given more important roles. This has happened in 28 Middle, Qingzi Academy, and Dongshan 1 Middle.
From 28 Middle, there were currently 3 actors still in the film industry.
Their most well-known screen roles were: the Village Tyrant Liu HeiGou, the unscrupulous merchant Xu WeiYang, and the traitor Wang FuGui.
They were collectively known as the Repulsive Three, and was what the other schools used to ridicule 28 Middle.
If I acted as Jin Ling young thug, would we be known as the Repulsive Four?
Anyways, is the vice-principal’s speech done yet?! My legs are getting sore!
