Stuttering Big Boss’s White Moonlight

e bent into a bright twinkling crescent.

Gu Miao’s heart shook violently and nodded hurriedly.

The two walked side by side, and Cheng Chu could smell the clean soap scent on Gu Miao.

Mixed with the winter wind, there was an inexplicable lingering smell.

She looked at the silent boy, pondered for a moment, and said, “Actually, you can talk more often.
Your voice is very nice to hear.”

Gu Miao stumbled over his feet.

He thought of the piece of paper that he had warmly touched countless times, and that sentence was also written on it.

It was the first time someone said this to him.

Knowing that she probably said it to comfort him, his cold heart couldn’t help but warm up.

“Mmhm.” Gu Miao muttered.

The shadow in his eyes and his furrowed eyebrows melted like ice the moment he saw the girl.

Using the dimly lit street lights, Cheng Chu looked into the young boy’s eyes and couldn’t help saying: “You know, not everyone in the class is like Yu Yin.
Some people are also quite good, like Zhou Ran and Luo Qian Qian.
They all wanted to talk to you.”

Cheng Chu knew that he was introverted and withdrawn, had no friends, and was unwilling to talk to others.

But she wanted to tell him that there are many people like her in this world, willing to accept his stutterings, willing to stop and wait, and willing to accept his misery.

The young man stared at the dead branches on the roadside with hooded eyes and did not speak for a long time.

“”

Cheng Chu thought he didn’t believe her, and a touch of sourness surfaced from her heart.

She kicked the pebble beside her foot, lowered her eyes, and said nothing.

After a long time, she heard the boy’s low husky voice, saying, “Yeah.”

[Whatever you say, I’ll listen.] Gu Miao thought to himself.

Cheng Chu’s dim eyes lit up instantly, she looked at Gu Miao and happily nodded with a smile.

The two walked quietly, and after a short while, they arrived at Cheng Chu’s house gates.

Cheng Chu stopped, raised her eyes to look at Gu Miao, and said softly: “That’s my home.
Then, I’ll see you tomorrow, be careful on your way.”

Gu Miao nodded: “Yeah.”

He stared at the girl’s departing form until her figure completely disappeared from his sight.
He turned around and walked back to school.

The school was a little dark, he walked into the bicycle shed, stepped on the only remaining parked bike, stepped on both pedals, and rode the bike under the moonlight.

Friday was always the most anticipated day for students.

But today is an exception.

Because there is a physics exam in the afternoon.

Once the class is over, the students didn’t leave or play around.
Instead, they remain seated at their table, either reviewing physics notes or solving problems.

Zhou Ran was stuck on a difficult problem.
Although he studied hard, his grades were only average.

The classroom was silent.
Zhou Ran couldn’t help but look beside him, quietly staring at his deskmate.

This deskmate of his, Gu Miao’s grades could be considered as the best of the best.
Usually, he has the highest grade in the class in physics and chemistry.
The only reason he couldn’t go to the Special class was that his grades in English class were not as good.

Having been deskmates with Gu Miao for several months, they had rarely spoken to each other.
The group discussion in class yesterday was the longest conversation they have had.

Zhou Ran originally didn’t want to disturb him.

Gu Miao was always unsociable, and almost always ignored everything around him.

Zhou Ran looked down at the empty questions in the workbook.
He thought about the exam in the afternoon and thought about Gu Miao’s unusual willingness to cooperate in the group discussion yesterday.

He gritted his teeth, tapped his deskmate lightly, and whispered, “Gu Miao.”

Gu Miao frowned and turned his head, his black eyes grim and frosty.

Zhou Ran subconsciously panicked, and his words stuck in his throat after meeting his indifferent eyes.

It took him a few seconds to recollect what he wanted to say.

“Uh, do you know how to solve this?” He pointed to his workbook, his tone cautious.

Gu Miao was a little surprised.
Apart from Cheng Chu, almost no one in the class would initiate a conversation with him.

He lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the problem in the book, and a strange emotion appeared in his heart.

The air stagnated for a moment.

Zhou Ran saw Gu Miao’s hooded eyes and embarrassingly took the workbook back: “Forget it, forget it.
Let me think about it some more.”

He feels a little regretful about his actions; even though he knew that Gu Miao wouldn’t pay attention to him, he still chose to bother him.

Gu Miao pursed his lips as he listened to Zhou Ran’s slightly embarrassed voice.

He thought of Cheng Chu looking up at him under the dim street light, with sincere and bright stars in her eyes.

She said that people are willing to talk to him.

The winter breeze brought bitter coldness to the room, but Gu Miao felt that a corner of his heart was burning fervently.

The warm and peaceful heat slowly spread to every corner of his body.

Sitting next to him, Zhou Ran was hanging his head, thinking hard about the unsolvable physics problem.

Suddenly, a piece of paper was pushed over onto his desk, and it was full of steps and explanations for solving the problem.

Zhou Ran raised his head in amazement, looking at Gu Miao and his cold expression, and said with some uncertainty: “Is this for me?”

The indifferent boy nodded and said: “R-Read it.
A-Ask me i-if you don’t u-understand.”

“Okay.” Zhou Ran said with joy: “Thank you, Gu Miao, you are actually quite a nice person.”

This was the first time he knew that his deskmate was such a kind but cold-faced person.

Gu Miao’s eyes flashed, and he lowered his head without talking.

A nice person? He sneered from the bottom of his heart.
This was the first time anyone said that about him.
