On the internet, people often commemorate their childhoods. Chen Bing, a young man from a small town who was one of them, found himself back 24 years ago, in the small town of his birth, after his ...
During the break between classes, Cai Kunnan was happily playing with two ants he had caught. Suddenly, he felt a cool breeze carrying a fragrance.
When he turned his head, he found the very beautiful Zhang Xinyu sitting next to him, peacefully reading a letter.
Having never been so close to a woman, especially a beautiful one, Cai Kunnan immediately felt shy. The faint, lingering fragrance of the girl wafted into his nose, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. He didn't even notice the ant-like senior student running away from him.
Although the other person didn't speak to him, Cai Kunnan's heart was racing and he started sweating. Like a machine running at full capacity, he hunched over, his head bowed, his mind a complete mess.
Fortunately, as the school bell rang, his brother Bing returned and, with a few words, drove away the SSS-level monster, saving his poor little heart from danger.
After hearing Cai Kunnan's inexplicable praise, Chen Bing didn't dwell on the matter and waved her hand without saying anything.
So, halfway through the second period, Fang Anmin walked into the classroom and called all the boys in the class to move books.
Moving books was much more interesting than writing in a diary. Despite the early autumn heat, the boys excitedly followed Fang Anmin out.
The most active among them was Ma Shaolong, who had just regained his confidence from Chen Bing. He appeared mature and capable, naturally directing everyone to move the books. However, due to his unfamiliarity with the process, he made many mistakes in a daze, leaving everyone confused and at a loss.
Seeing this scene, Chen Bing glanced at his watch. There were less than thirty minutes left before the end of the second evening self-study session. To avoid being late for home, he had no choice but to step forward and organize the book-moving process.
Order was quickly restored at the scene, and everyone carried their class's books in an orderly fashion, stack by stack.
"You stay here and direct for a bit." After patting Ma Shaolong on the shoulder, Chen Bing picked up a stack of books and followed the crowd toward the classroom.
Watching the other person's departing figure, Ma Shaolong felt a little ashamed.
People often make foolish mistakes because they are eager to show off their intelligence.
Although Ma Shaolong didn't understand this principle, he still deeply felt the difference between himself and Chen Bing. When the homeroom teacher was there, he shamelessly went to give instructions, but things went wrong. But when the homeroom teacher wasn't there, Brother Bing took the initiative to step forward and help him out of the predicament.
Moreover, in the end, he didn't try to take credit; instead, he let himself continue to give orders while he willingly moved books.
At that moment, he subconsciously stopped seeing himself as Chen Bing's competitor and began to admire and respect her.
Okay, Chen Bing, when I become the class monitor in the future, I will definitely not forget your kindness.
Meanwhile, the girls who remained in the classroom were very interested in the distribution of books. They discussed it with each other with great anticipation until the homeroom teacher pushed open the door and came in, at which point they gradually fell silent.
For Shang Yunmiao, junior high school textbooks were nothing special. Not to mention that her mother was a junior high school Chinese teacher, and she herself had often looked at junior high school Chinese textbooks since fourth or fifth grade of elementary school, even when Chen Bing was reviewing junior high school textbooks, she would often peek at them.
As she was thinking this, she saw the boys in her class carrying books into the classroom one after another, including Chen Bing, whom she had just been talking about.
Brand new textbooks were quickly distributed to everyone, including those for Chinese, mathematics, English, politics, history, geography, biology, and more.
When the biology textbook was handed to Shang Yunmiao, she suddenly remembered a junior high school biology book that she had accidentally seen at Chen Bing's place a long time ago, in which a section described the male and female reproductive systems in detail.
Thinking of this, Shang Yunmiao glanced at Ma Lele beside her. After confirming that the other party was not paying attention, the lady-like woman carefully began to look through the biology textbook.
Unfortunately, even after flipping through the textbook two or three times, she still couldn't find those contents.
"What's wrong? You look very disappointed."
The sudden voice startled Shang Yunmiao. She jerked her head up like a frightened rabbit, and after realizing that the speaker was Chen Bing, she pretended to be calm and closed the book.
It turned out that while Shang Yunmiao was engrossed in her book, time had quietly passed by 8:10, and the second evening self-study session had ended.
"No, it's nothing..."
Although it's obvious at a glance that something's wrong, it's best not to pry too deeply into certain things.
"Oh, okay, class is over. Let's pack up and go. Don't keep Aunt Xuan waiting too long."
"Um."
After packing her things, Shang Yunmiao followed Chen Bing out of the classroom.
The sight of the two walking side by side attracted the attention of many people in the class. Some were curious, some were gossipy, and others were indifferent.
However, most of the curiosity stems from the fact that both parties involved are very good-looking.
After evening self-study, the students in the class returned to their dormitories in twos and threes, turned off the lights, and went to sleep. The gossip fire buried in their hearts began to be released out of boredom.
"Does our school allow day students? I saw some students in my class leave after the second period."
In the eight-person male dormitory, someone was the first to start talking about this.
"It should be possible. I saw Chen Bing leave with a girl." Actually, the person who said this knew Shang Yunmiao's name, but according to the rules for boys of this age, it was difficult to say the name of a pretty girl so directly after just meeting her.
"Oh, Bing-ge and Miao-jie!" Hearing his roommates discussing his Bing-ge, Cai Kunnan tossed aside the bottle containing insects and eagerly wanted to join the discussion.
Do you know them?
Since it involved a pretty girl, everyone in the dorm perked up immediately.
“I know her. I was in the same class as them in elementary school. The girl’s name is Shang Yunmiao. She lives in the same neighborhood as my brother Bing.”
"They live in the same neighborhood?" In the other girls' dormitory, several people were also talking about this topic. Zhang Xinyu was quite surprised after learning about the relationship between Chen Bing and Shang Yunmiao from Ma Lele.
“Hmm.” Ma Lele knew more about the two of them than Cai Kunnan, and she quickly added, “They’re neighbors too, and their two families have a very good relationship.”
