Oolong tea
Gao Yuanyuan put her hands behind her back, twisted them together, and said with a depressed look: "I, I think I will also transfer schools."
"ah!"
"No, Gao Yuanyuan, what did you say!"
"You're transferring schools too? What's going on? Why are you all leaving for no apparent reason?"
"No, don't be ridiculous. It's only halfway through the semester and another one is leaving!"
Lu Zisheng just came over and heard Gao Yuanyuan’s last words. He was so shocked that he came close to her and wanted to slap himself. Was he having tinnitus again?
"I……"
Gao Yuanyuan half hid behind Zhou Xi, looking at the anxious Lu Zisheng. She didn't want to say these words, but her mother told her two days ago.
His father had some problems at work, and the company wanted to transfer him to remote Xining for three years. Her mother asked her opinion, whether she wanted to stay in Wencheng and finish the college entrance examination first, or go with the whole family.
Gao Yuanyuan didn't want her family to be separated just because she wanted to be with her friends, classmates, and teachers, and she didn't want her mother to be separated from her husband because of her studies.
"This is the situation at home. There's nothing I can do."
After hearing about Gao Yuanyuan's family situation, Lu Zisheng really didn't know what to say. He couldn't just tell her to stay here alone and be separated from her parents.
Gao Yuanyuan also knew that on the surface her mother gave her the opportunity to make her own choice, but how could she possibly want to be separated from her family?
"The five of us are going to separate one person again. Why are there so many unexpected events?" Lu Zi angrily wanted to punch the tree, but the tree was rough and it hurt his hand.
"Let it be. After the make-up class, shall we go?"
Zhou Xi patted Gao Yuanyuan on the shoulder and comforted her. Zhou Xi knew that if there was room for change, Gao Yuanyuan would not say it. They had no choice but to obey the decision of adults.
The cicadas in the trees were howling without stopping, like an unruly choir, one after another, making people feel upset.
"Well, I guess so. I'll have to move then, Mom, and you'll have to help me find a school."
Gao Yuanyuan looked at her grades and found that they were not outstanding. She was lucky and performed exceptionally well in the high school entrance examination, which allowed her to be admitted to Yuxiu. She didn't know whether she would be able to find a good school when she went to Xining.
However, her mother told her that the conditions in Xining were not as good as Wencheng in terms of economy or education. She might be able to get into a good school there, but the climate there was different from here, so it might take some time to adapt.
Gao Yuanyuan didn't want to make everyone worry, so she smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, when the time comes, I will come back and play with you guys when I have time!"
"That's right. Xining is not as far away as Xiao Xiaoyu who lives abroad. Just come back and play when you have a holiday." Gao Liyang glanced at Gao Yuanyuan. She was still trying hard to enlighten everyone. How could she say such discouraging words? Those people were too depressed.
Chen Yu pulled Yang Jinyang and smiled at Gao Yuanyuan: "Yes, we haven't been to Xining yet. We will go there to have fun when the time comes. Gao Yuanyuan, you can be our guide and greet us."
"Okay, okay!"
Lu Zisheng reluctantly squeezed next to Gao Yuanyuan: "Then you must remember to come back to play, don't forget us when you have new classmates!"
"Don't worry, it won't happen!"
The five people formed a circle. Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes and felt a little sad. This was the second time she had such a feeling of separation. She never thought that one day, she would be the protagonist.
No wonder Xiao Xiaoyu tried so hard to comfort them even though she looked so sad at that time. She is the same now. She has finally made a group of friends, why do they always have to separate?
Lu Zisheng felt like he was going to pee if he stayed any longer, so he pulled Chen Yu and said, "Hey, let's go, let's go back to class. See you after class, see you after class!"
"good."
"Yes, class is about to start. Let's go back."
"Zhou Xi, it's okay, I will be back when the time comes, you, don't be sad!"
Gao Yuanyuan hugged Zhou Xi. She found that Zhou Xi was silent. He must be secretly sad. There must be water in the tofu.
“…”
When Lu Zisheng saw Gao Yuanyuan turning her head, for some reason, some images flashed before his eyes.
Gao Yuanyuan probably doesn’t know yet that he is the neighbor’s brother who always bullies her. It’s a pity that she never had the chance to tell him.
He passed away over a decade ago. Although he always bullied Little Stutter, he always played with Little Stutter. After he passed away, Little Stutter was left without a good friend. He cried for who knows how long.
Just as Gao Liyang said, Xiao Xiaoyu was really furious. She sent countless voice messages in the group, using both Chinese and English. It was so exciting.
Lu Zisheng also laughed at her, saying that she had forgotten her mother tongue after spending some time abroad, and her speech was incoherent and incomprehensible.
"Hello, I want a cup of oolong tea with ice!"
"Okay, please wait."
Gao Yuanyuan's toes lightly touched the corner of the front desk wall. It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous. It was like a nightmare. No matter how many years passed, she felt that she could never let it go.
After waiting for a cup of tea, Gao Yuanyuan turned around and saw Yao Yao sitting next to the window. How eye-catching.
Unlike Zhou Xi's facial features, Yao Yao's appearance can amaze people at first sight, and always makes people want to look at her.
"Long time no see." Yao Yao glanced at Gao Yuanyuan, who was wearing a pinafore dress and black-framed glasses.
"Nothing, nice to see you."
Yao Yao wasn't angry, she just found it funny, and snorted, "Oh, you're still so stubborn."
Yao Yao has always felt that the reason she was so annoyed with Gao Yuanyuan at the time was probably because of her stubbornness and her drive. If Gao Yuanyuan had given in quickly and wasn't such a stubborn person, perhaps she would have gotten tired of it and moved on. But she refused to give in, so who could she blame?
"What do you want from me?"
Gao Yuanyuan felt that sitting with Yao Yao was very oppressive, uncomfortable and suffocating.
"I thought you wouldn't agree to come. You're quite brave. No wonder you chose to stand up and help her."
Gao Yuanyuan frowned and clenched the cup in her hand. Yao Yao's tone was full of sarcasm, and there was something else in it, but she couldn't make it out.
"I came to you because I wanted to tell you..."
"sorry."
Gao Yuanyuan was stunned, staring at Yao Yao with eyes wide open in disbelief, unable to utter a word.
She apologized, but why did she say it so lightly, as if she wasn't the one who was wrong?
Yaoyao said this without any psychological burden, shrugged her shoulders, and smiled very fakely: "Lin Lin woke up, the person who fell at that time, she told me everything, humph, I didn't expect her to be such a shameless person."
"I will never forgive you."
The smile on Yao Yao's lips froze, and she suddenly felt relieved when she thought of something.
"It doesn't matter. I'm not a good person to begin with. I just thought it was funny. You're like a clown in a circus, being fooled around all the time. But you do have some backbone."
Gao Yuanyuan took a breath, stared at the floral pattern on Yao Yao's skirt, and suddenly smiled: "You really love wearing skirts, and it has never changed."
She remembered that when Yao Yao was in junior high school, she wore a skirt almost every day, never even the same one twice, and she really looked like a princess.
"I'm not, clown. The clown is you, it's you who's been fooled."
Gao Yuanyuan's eyes suddenly became firm, because she knew the truth of the matter, so she would not bow to Yao Yao. She was not wrong, she was right, and it was Lin Lin and Yao Yao who were wrong.
Yao Yao looked down at the yellow skirt. What a bright color, how beautiful it was. In the crowd, she would be noticed at a glance, wouldn't she?
Clown, hahaha, what a boring word. If she is a clown in Gao Yuanyuan's eyes, it is all thanks to that bitch Lin Lin.
A week ago, she received a call and Lin Lin woke up.
She thought she could hear what she wanted to hear, but she didn't expect Lin Lin to tell her everything that happened that year.
Linlin told her that when she woke up, she regretted it. She regretted her stupidity and regretted having to muddy the waters, which ended up costing her both legs and making her unable to stand up forever.
She said that she liked Chen Yu just like herself, but she was an ordinary person, not as dazzling and wealthy as herself, so she was suppressed and sad. Jealousy can change a person beyond recognition, making him unscrupulous and scheming, and no longer himself.
She wanted to sink into the mire and no longer be the dazzling rose.
So she would hide, hide so deeply, so deeply that she almost didn't exist.
She inquired step by step, analyzed bit by bit, and approached again and again, and finally she got the chance. Fortunately, she hit the target at once, and she fell into her trap like a silly white sweet girl, and all her girlish thoughts were hooked.
She had intentionally started the quarrel, but she didn't expect that she would fall, nor did she expect Zhou Xi to help her. It was this unexpected thing that caused her to panic after being pulled back, and she ended up falling down.
After hearing what Lin Lin said, Yao Yao even thought that Lin Lin was crazy and was making up a story. Why? Is this the truth? A fact that completely overturned what she saw with her own eyes.
"sorry."
With a simple "I'm sorry", Lin Lin wanted to let it all pass and start over.
Yao Yao just felt it was absurd and ridiculous. She even hated the wrong person, and in the end it was all in vain.
"Whatever you say, I'm leaving. Maybe we'll never see each other again." Yao Yao didn't touch the coffee she ordered, and didn't even take the spoon.
Gao Yuanyuan watched Yao Yao turn around and leave, and Zhou Xi stopped her at the door again.
She lowered her head and tears finally fell. It was over, finally over. Even if she wanted more fairness, it was no longer possible. There was no point.
Gao Yuanyuan in the second grade of junior high school was always wronged. She wanted to go back and hug herself, but she was not qualified. The current Gao Yuanyuan is no longer a coward. She stands in the present and looks at the past, but unfortunately, time will not stop. Let Gao Yuanyuan in the second grade of junior high school stay there. She will always remember and remind herself to be a brave and strong person in the future.
Gao Yuanyuan only saw Zhou Xi's back and couldn't hear what they said. She didn't want to ask Zhou Xi to find out. This was a dispute between the two of them. It was disrespectful and critical for outsiders to interfere.
She knew that she would also look at things through tinted glasses and would be biased. The scales tipped towards Zhou Xi. She was not the person involved and would never have the qualifications. Only they themselves could tell who was right and who was wrong.
"goodbye."
"goodbye."
Zhou Xi watched Yao Yao turn around and leave. The wind blew, and the hem of her yellow skirt swayed in the wind.
Suddenly I thought of a sentence: beautiful roses have thorns, which can prick others or yourself.
Zhou Xi always had a glimmer of hope in her heart. She was reluctant to let go of those times, reluctant to let go, and kept in touch with them. So others became the executioners, and not surprisingly, she became the fish on the chopping board, with no hope of survival.
During the darkest hours, she couldn't sleep all night. When she finally fell asleep, her dreams were filled with blood and insults. She endured it all, letting the blood drip and drown her.
Now she wants to seal her memories in a box. Even if she comes out, she won't savor them again, because savoring them will make her addicted.
She doesn't want to become a trapped beast, she wants to become a cloud.
At this moment, she and Yao Yao truly ended their entanglement and parted ways, without asking about anything. The past laughter, quarrels and arguments all drifted away with the wind.
Moving is a very tiring job. Every day when Gao Yuanyuan comes home, she can see her parents packing things. Big and small bags are piled in the corner, and sometimes there is no place to step.
She had a lot of stuff, and her mother asked her to clean it up herself. But when she started to clean it up, she found that the room was full of memories. Those things recorded spring, summer, autumn and winter, and they could not be taken away.
The day the tutoring ended was also the day Gao Yuanyuan's family moved out.
Like Xiao Xiaoyu, Gao Yuanyuan did not let anyone see her off because she was too sad. She knew she couldn't stop crying, and she didn't want everyone to have a crying or laughing face when she left. She wanted to leave a good impression.
She is Gao Yuanyuan, the smiling Gao Yuanyuan.
Before leaving, Gao Yuanyuan went to see Lu Zisheng.
"What do you want from me?" Lu Zisheng looked at Gao Yuanyuan with flickering eyes, blushing face, and hesitant. He had been waiting for a long time but there was no follow-up. Could it be that? It was always like that in TV dramas.
Lu Zisheng's thoughts drifted eight hundred miles away, and he thought secretly in his heart.
Holy shit, holy shit, no way? No way? I haven't noticed for so long, this little stutterer actually has such thoughts about me!
No, this is too sudden, isn't it? I, I'm not ready yet! Do you want to pause for a moment? I need to go to the bathroom...
"Lu Zisheng, I recognized you."
Gao Yuanyuan recognized Lu Zisheng the first time she saw him. He was still as playful as he was when he was little, so he was easy to recognize. However, she felt a little embarrassed about her childhood self, and she thought Lu Zisheng didn't recognize her. She didn't want to embarrass both of them, so she didn't mention it again.
But for some reason, after she knew she was leaving, she suddenly wanted to say it out. This desire became stronger and stronger, and reached its peak today.
"ah?"
Lu Zisheng felt like he was on a roller coaster. His heart stopped for a moment, and then he felt a little disappointed. Could it be that his charm wasn't strong enough, and she suddenly changed her mind, deciding to keep this girlish feeling hidden in her heart forever?
"You are the neighbor brother who always teases me."
"Oh, oh."
Lu Zisheng coughed twice, scratched his head guiltily, and looked up at the sky.
"Ah, um, um, actually, I recognized you too, uh, the stuttering sister from the neighbor's house, right?"
Lu Zisheng remembered that he had met Xiao Xiaoyu and Gao Liyang at the age of six, before he moved. His neighbor had a younger sister, and they used to go to kindergarten together. He always loved teasing her about her stuttering, so he nicknamed her "Little Stutterer."
Every time people were annoyed with him, but there was nothing they could do, so they would stare with their big round eyes, cry, and complain.
His parents often beat him for this, and he had to apologize afterwards. Fortunately, the girl was easy to coax and forgave him after a few nice words. However, his family moved later and he lost contact with her.
Gao Yuanyuan opened her mouth wide and blinked: "Huh? You, you, recognized me?"
"Yeah, that's it..."
"Well, that day, I helped you out, and then, my head suddenly clicked and I suddenly remembered it!"
"originally……"
Gao Yuanyuan stared at him with curiosity, her big eyes seemed to say that if he didn't give an answer, she could keep looking. Lu Zisheng felt like he was turning into a mature shrimp, clasping his hands, and now he was the one who hesitated.
He cursed in his heart, it's just a girl staring at him, they have been together for so long, she is precocious, so what's the big deal, besides, he has seen all kinds of storms and watched all those movies, what's the point of being a pure and innocent boy, why is he so timid, why is he blushing.
Depend on!
"I wanted to ask you that day, but then I started class, and then I forgot about it!"
"oh."
Lu Zisheng covered his face and looked at Gao Yuanyuan through his fingers: "What's your reaction?"
Gao Yuanyuan didn't know why she felt Lu Zisheng was acting strangely. His tone was a bit fierce, but also a bit shy. Gao Yuanyuan was startled by her own thoughts, shuddering and shaking her head vigorously, as if trying to get rid of the thought.
"You used to bully me every day. I was thinking about how to stew you!"
When Lu Zisheng saw Gao Yuanyuan smiling with dimples on her face, he was stunned for a moment, and his brain seemed to have triggered a program as if a robot had just started, and he remembered something.
At that time, he teased Gao Yuanyuan every day, partly because Gao Yuanyuan was a little greedy cat and had endless delicious food to eat every day. However, his mother controlled him and did not buy him snacks, so he snatched Gao Yuanyuan's food.
Once, Gao Yuanyuan got a chicken leg from nowhere and was about to bite it, but it was snatched away by herself who ran back from outside. She took a bite of it, but the other person despised it, so she didn't want it and ran away crying.
While running, he was still saying that he wanted to stew him.
果不其然，晚上回去，等着他的就是一顿胖揍，高圆圆就站在旁边，一边啃鸡腿，一边笑他，嘴边的酒窝可灿烂了。那个场景，太鸡贼了，人家有尚方宝剑，他呢，爹不疼，娘不爱的。
Afterwards, you have to bow and apologize to the other person. It won’t work if your voice is too soft, your tone is too insincere, or if the other person doesn’t agree.
Oh my God, why was my life so miserable when I was a child!
"Oh my god, how embarrassing!"
"Well, the past cannot be recalled. Sister Yuanyuan, please have mercy on me and let me go!"
"Hahaha!" Gao Yuanyuan laughed so hard that she bent over, and her neat row of teeth were exposed.
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I'm leaving!"
"Ah, then, bye! Send us a message when you get to the ground!"
"good!"
