Chapter 37 Chapter 37 That Kind of Heroism
When Xu Sui arrived home, grandma and grandpa couldn't hide the surprise on their faces.
Grandma quickly wiped the strange color from her face and walked to the entrance to take the bag off Xu Sui's back. She patted Xu Sui's body to remove the coldness and asked, "Why did you come back so suddenly? Your uncle didn't even call us so we could pick you up at the train station."
The stubborn old man put his hands behind his back, walked to where the thermos was placed, pulled out the wooden cork and poured water into the cup. The warm water made a "gurgling" sound and quickly liquefied into small water droplets when it touched the cold air.
Xu Sui turned sideways and wanted to ask.
Is mom back?
Why didn't she want to see me? Why did she send me away and come back secretly?
Do you guys know something? Why... are you hiding it from me?
Is it because she bleeds Xu Changxuan's blood...
But she hasn't seen her mother for a long, long time.
The face in her memory had become much more blurred, but she could recognize it whenever she saw it, even if it was just the back.
But when I saw the wrinkles on my grandmother's forehead and at the corners of her eyes, and her happy eyes and brows, I swallowed all the words back into my stomach, along with the bitter taste.
Xu Sui shook her head and forced a smile, but it was uglier than crying. She was afraid of being seen, so she bent down slightly and gave the little old lady a firm hug.
Swallowing her saliva and holding her throat, she said softly, with a hint of coquettishness in her tone: "I missed you and Grandpa, so I came back a day early."
Then he hugged his grandmother's hand and pressed the corners of his eyes behind his back.
Grandma's tense body visibly relaxed. She smiled and patted her hands, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened by the smile. She said in a relaxed tone: "You are so old and still act like a spoiled child. Really? Come on, come on, you haven't had dinner yet, right? There are dumplings made by Mom...Grandma in the refrigerator. Eat dumplings, eat dumplings."
"Okay~" She burped, then covered her mouth and nose and smiled embarrassedly.
"I know you like mushroom-filled ones, so I packed a lot of mushroom-filled ones." The old man muttered and walked towards the kitchen.
"Who likes the mushroom filling, old woman? I like the leek filling." Grandpa handed the water to Xu Sui and heard grandma mumbling.
"I know, hey."
The hot dumplings were quickly brought to the table. Xu Sui picked up the soup spoon to taste what they tasted like, but they were too hot and burned his lips.
Her pink lips swelled up immediately, and Xu Sui burst into tears. Grandma said "Oh" and handed her a glass of cold water. Grandpa frowned and said, "No one is competing with you for it, why are you so anxious?"
"I just want to eat. I haven't eaten in a long time, a very long time." She hiccuped and had an extremely tough attitude. She leaned on the old man's big red cotton-padded jacket and cried like a naughty child.
"Grandma." Xu Sui called.
"Grandma is here, just be patient." The old woman patted Xu Sui's back gently.
"It hurts so much, my mouth hurts so much." Tears flowed down and into his mouth, tasting salty and causing pain in his lips again.
Xu Sui closed his eyes, and in his ears were his grandmother's gentle comfort and his grandfather's words of doubt.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't we just eat dumplings on the morning of the day we went to Xiangbei? Why are you crying over a meal of dumplings..." The stubborn old man was still chattering, and grandma signaled him with her eyes to stop.
Finally, everything returned to calm. When Xu Sui ate again, the dumplings were already slightly cold. Her teeth gently broke through the dumpling skin, revealing the filling inside. When the taste exploded between her lips and tongue, she knew that all her guesses were true.
It's not an illusion, nor is it a dream.
Ignorance is tasteless, ignorance is insensible.
**
In the second semester of her second year of high school, Xu Sui became the leader of the third group. This time, Chen Yun was no longer assigned to the same group as her. Amid the sparse sounds of desks being dragged, his voice stood out and sounded decadent: "Hey, Xu Sui, are you going to ignore me now that we've changed groups?"
"If your team member and I come to you with a question, will you give him priority?"
When he asked this question, Xu Sui was moving desks with a girl. After the class division, there would no longer be such a person. He asked lazily and nonchalantly: "Where are you moving to?"
Then he put his hands on the edge of the table and lifted the extremely heavy desk with an effort. The smooth muscle lines on his white arms were slightly highlighted because of the force.
He wore his white school uniform very formally, never opening the two middle buttons because of the heat. Looking up, his face seemed to be filtered by the light, blurry, attractive, and refreshing, the kind of young man who was extremely righteous.
During his youth, when he was under the influence of various hormones, Xu Sui felt that he was extremely attractive.
"Hey, Xu Xiaosui, what are you daydreaming about?" Chen Yun lowered his head, approached her, and patted her head.
Xu Sui suddenly realized what was happening and subconsciously dodged to the side. He frowned slightly and said, "Sorry, um, if you have any questions, it's best to talk to someone in your own group. If they don't have time, you're welcome to talk to me. I'll definitely answer you as soon as possible."
After saying this, she smiled, revealing a shallow dimple on the right side of her cheek.
Very polite, very friendly, but also distant.
Chen Yun was stunned for a moment, and he withdrew his hand and put it into his school pants pocket. A trace of disappointment flashed across his eyes, but his voice was still full of energy when he spoke: "Okay, then I wish you all the best and get first place in the next exam."
When he said the last few words, he lowered his voice and spoke quietly. He blinked, glanced at me, and then turned and strode towards his seat.
Xu Sui was stunned for a moment. The girl next to her approached her and asked, "Hey, you and Chen Yun are really close. Does he like you? He cares about you so much and stays close to you."
She joked, mixing truth and lies.
Xu Sui lowered his eyes and chuckled: "Don't talk nonsense, he has a good relationship with many girls, doesn't he?"
"Yes, he is a friend of women." The girl tilted her head and thought for a moment and found that it was true.
Chen Yunchang is sunny and cheerful. He has a pair of puppy eyes that make him soft-hearted. He is sweet-mouthed and good at talking. He is also famous for his good interpersonal relationships, especially with girls. He can be sweet-mouthed and give them a lot of compliments.
Boys also like to play with him because he is generous and righteous, and he basically helps everyone he can.
But as he came into contact with more girls, people began to feel that he was playing with women, and the title of "Friend of Women" also spread.
"Sister Sui, Sister Jia said we're going to have dinner at the food court next door this afternoon." Zhang Wenjun came running from behind, panting. He and Xu Sui were in the same class in the second year of high school.
"Okay, are you going with Zhiyao?" Xu Sui asked.
"Sister Yao, you should go. Anyway, there's that guy named Xie and Zhou Shi, but I don't know about those two guys, Song Shiyang and Jiang Song." Zhang Wenjun mentioned it casually.
Caught off guard by the name, Xu Sui's hands froze as he was packing his things. In recent weeks, for some reason, Song Shiyang had hardly come to the biology competition class. Xu Sui almost thought that he had not signed up, or that he didn't want to pursue biology as a major, so he dropped out.
"Okay, got it." Xu Sui nodded.
At 4:20 in the afternoon, as soon as the bell rang, the whole teaching building began to shake like a dragon turning over. The sound of "dong dong dong" came from above. After Xu Sui pulled the chain of his pencil case, he suspected that a lot of dust had fallen from the upstairs.
Several people met at the door. Xu Sui took a casual glance and unexpectedly saw Jiang Song, but did not see Song Shiyang. His heart skipped a beat at that moment.
Jiang Changjia came over and took Xu Sui's arm, then turned to the boys and said, "Let's go. Don't wait for him. He'll be back after he finishes explaining the problem to Bai."
"That's right, let's go, big brother." Xie Zhuoyuan raised his hand and hooked it around Jiang Song's neck, leading him forward, saying as he walked: "Ah, bad fate, bad fate."
After such a long time, Jiang Changjia also changed from being extremely repulsive to Bai Ruoxing, wishing she could transfer schools on the spot, to accepting her calmly, but he still didn't want to look her in the eye.
But after hearing this, he couldn't help but complain to Xu Sui: "Don't you think these people are crazy? Can you make a living by talking about love all the time?"
Her twin ponytails hung softly in front of her chest. She looked very well-behaved when she didn't open her mouth, and was a cute girl. But as soon as she started talking, her whole appearance changed.
After playing with them for a long time, Xu Sui probably knew something. She hesitated and asked, "But aren't they... together?"
She spoke the last five words very softly, almost in a whisper, but Jiang Changjia had good hearing. She turned her head in surprise, looked at Xu Sui and asked, "Who is together? How come I don't know?"
Xu Sui, who was making a loud noise, immediately covered her mouth. The two girls walked quickly and had already gone downstairs. Xu Sui could even see Xu Zhiyao and Zhou Shi not far away.
"You really believe the rumors. I don't know if we have feelings for each other, but we are definitely not together anymore."
"The main thing is that Song Shiyang wouldn't do anything that would embarrass others. We've known each other for so long, so we see each other every day. That's why I agreed to explain the problem to her."
"And these rumors came out of nowhere. Based on my understanding of Bai, 90% of them are spread by her, just to make people think that she and Song Shiyang are a couple."
Jiang Changjia snorted.
Xu Sui slowly loosened his hand, obviously not expecting this to happen, and whispered: "Is that so..."
When Xu Zhiyao saw the two people coming over, he rushed over and gave them a bear hug. The boys behind them also followed and everyone greeted each other. Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Song were not very familiar with each other, so a nod was considered a greeting.
A group of people walked towards the school gate, the girls walked in front and the boys walked behind. Jiang Changjia and Xu Zhiyao were discussing the color and style of the manicures they were doing this time. Xu Sui didn't understand much about this and looked in curiously from the side.
"Jiang Song, you bastard, you actually ranked second in the whole school in this joint exam. Without the liberal arts, you become even more ferocious. Come on, treat me, you must treat me this time." Xie Zhuoyuan was so angry that his teeth were itching. After each exam, they would check each other's results together, and it was normal for those who did well to treat each other.
This tradition started in the first grade of junior high school. In elementary school, everyone's grades were similar and there was not much difference between them. But once they reached junior high school, as the number of subjects increased, it became clear who had more and who had less scores.
As soon as this rule came out, Song Shiyang suffered a great loss, because his share had never been low and he had invited the most guests, but the young boy would not be stingy with that little bit of money.
At that time, there were occasionally people in the small group who could surpass him, but later he was firmly in the first place and could not be surpassed no matter what. Except for Jiang Yanqing from the neighboring Yu'nan Middle School, he was almost invincible, so no one would take him to play later.
At that time, everyone solemnly announced this matter to him. The fourteen-year-old Song Shiyang frowned in confusion. His red lips and white teeth, light-colored eyes swept over everyone and he said calmly: "I have money, what am I afraid of?"
The tone was flat but gave people an inexplicable feeling of being extremely arrogant. I have plenty of money and I don’t care at all. Why are you worried about me?
Everyone fell silent, and Xie Zhuoyuan raised his hand silently: "Yangyang, this game of personal dictatorship isn't fun."
Jiang Song liked to show off by holding a cigarette at that time. He held the dark cigarette butt in his hand and shook his head and said, "Damn it, I let you show off."
Zhou Shi: "Brother Yang, you are insulting my personality."
…
So under the pressure of everyone, Song Shiyang was "forced" to quit the game.
Jiang Song was in no mood to argue with them today. His expression was calm and he said, "Okay, I'll treat you today."
There are two food streets outside No. 1 Middle School, which are especially busy when students are on vacation.
The hot and sour noodles at the restaurant they went to today were said to be the best in Chongqing. The sour and spicy taste was just right, and the minced meat covered in sauce was simply amazing.
The shop is an old one. The signboard is white with curled edges and five big characters "Zhao's Hot and Sour Noodles" are written on it.
There were so many people that the restaurant couldn't accommodate them all, so the boss set up a few folding tables outside. When they went in, a table of people had just finished eating. Xie Zhuoyuan and Zhou Shi slipped over as quickly as loaches, grabbed the chairs and put them under their buttocks.
Then one person called the boss to come over and clear the table, and another person waved at them: "Here, here."
The boss came over and cleared away the dishes from the previous table. He brought a small notebook and pen, pointed to the menu on the right wall, and said with a smile, "Order whatever you want. Classmate, please write it down for me."
"Eat! The math group has another exam tonight. Everyone, eat and go take the exam!" Xie Zhuoyuan patted his chest and said with a bit of misery.
I just finished my monthly exam a few days ago, but I still have a weekly exam this week. What did I fear most when I was in school? I was most afraid of the big exams and the regular small exams colliding with each other. The teachers would not let you breathe, and I would try my best to take any exam I could.
Jiang Changjia and Xu Zhiyao are both from Chongqing. They have a clear goal and ordered a classic hot and sour noodle. They came here today just for this taste. Xu Sui didn't know if he could withstand the spiciness and sourness of the hot and sour noodle.
After hesitating for a while, Xu Sui finally said, "Then I'll have some hot and sour noodles too."
Xie Zhuoyuan nodded, quickly crossed out x5 and wrote x6.
The hot and sour noodles were made very quickly, and soon six bowls of steaming hot and sour noodles were served on the table. The red oil floated on top, and the faint sour taste whetted people's appetites. Coupled with the fragrant minced meat, it made these children, who were almost driven crazy by the bland food in school, go crazy for it.
Xu Sui took a bite and found that it was indeed delicious and not as spicy as he had imagined.
"Why hasn't Yangyang come yet?" Xie Zhuoyuan asked while picking up sweet potato noodles with chopsticks.
"I don't know." Jiang Song had no expression on his face.
"Send a message and make a phone call." Zhou Shi suggested.
"Okay." Just as Xie Zhuoyuan freed his hand to take out his cell phone, Jiang Changjia made a "hmm" sound and shook his head vigorously in a certain direction outside.
"What's wrong, Jiang Changjia? Are you crazy?" Jiang Song started to talk dirty again.
"Old Xie, stop fighting, someone is coming." Zhou Shi poked the person next to him.
Xu Sui squinted his eyes out of jealousy, and when he heard this, he raised his head from his bowl and looked in the direction they were talking. Song Shiyang had just put away his phone, took the earphones out of his ears and put them into the earphone box while walking over.
His whole body was like white jade, with an elegant yet reserved temperament. When he came in, many people looked over here with inquiry and curiosity in their eyes.
"Handsome boy, you have to wait. There is no space now..." Before the boss could finish his words, he was interrupted by Xie Zhuoyuan. He smiled and said, "Boss, this is with us. Just add a chair."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Shiyang found a tall red plastic chair from somewhere and sat down next to Xu Sui.
Her heart stopped and she was a little flustered, thinking to herself - her mouth was covered with oil from eating just now, her forehead was sweating a lot, and she had a pimple just yesterday.
"Give me a bowl of wontons, boss." Song Shiyang glanced at the menu on the wall and said to the boss not far away. His voice was a little tired and hoarse from overusing his throat.
"You can't, Yangyang. Look, we all eat spicy food, but you're so squeamish that you even eat wontons."
"Boss, give me a bowl of wontons." He shouted, imitating Song Shiyang's words just now.
"Tsk, get out of here." He cursed with a smile, and kicked Xie Zhuoyuan under the table, saying as he kicked him: "I don't have a name, right? You're calling me that all the time."
Ever since Xie Zhuoyuan heard Song Shiyang's family call him that one time, they have been calling him that every day to disgust him.
At first, Song Shiyang would beat him up every time he shouted at him, but the boy was too resistant to beatings and refused to change, so he didn't bother to say anything later.
"Xie Zhuoyuan, there are some grease spots on your school uniform." Jiang Changjia gloated.
"Oh shit." He quickly looked down, and sure enough, he didn't know which step was wrong, a series of oil spots fell on the front of his white school uniform like beads, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Serves you right." The boy sneered.
Xu Sui had picked up a piece of sweet potato noodles with chopsticks and was about to put it in his mouth, but when he heard the words, he looked up, and the next second the slippery noodles seemed to have its own consciousness and quickly slipped back.
There was a "slurp" sound, which was the sound of vermicelli falling into the spicy red oil soup. The object fell from a high altitude, splashing oil spots, and then showered the people next to it.
When the vermicelli was falling, Xu Sui felt that she was doomed. She tried to catch it in mid-air, but it was obvious that she didn't have the ability and could only watch it fall.
Xu Sui turned her head and met those cold eyes as expected. She shrank her neck and didn't know what to say. It was so embarrassing.
Why is it at this time?
"Hahahaha, Sister Xu is so righteous!" Xie Zhuoyuan laughed so hard that he trembled. "She deserves it. She really deserves it."
Jiang Song on the side also laughed, looking at Song Shiyang with great interest, and kept making "tsk tsk" sounds, "How miserable."
Jiang Changjia wanted to comfort Xu Sui, but seeing the two people looking at each other in confusion, he felt inexplicably funny and decided to smile first.
"I'm sorry." Xu Sui stared at the oil spots that were running around like they were being bombarded and apologized sincerely and a little sadly.
"How about I compensate you with a new summer school uniform?" Xu Sui asked tentatively. The boy's face was calm, and the look in his eyes was like the slowly flowing waves in the dark night, and it was difficult to discern his emotions.
"What the hell is there to pay for, Yangyang? Where's your manliness? Sister Xu has already apologized."
"Yeah, it's just a few dozen dollars. If it doesn't work out, we can all make up for it." Song Shiyang clicked his tongue, pinched his brows, raised his eyes and looked over, mockingly saying, "I didn't say anything, one by one."
Then he turned around and said to Xu Sui, "It's just a piece of clothing. There's no need to feel guilty or worried."
"Oh, okay." She murmured.
But it is impossible to feel completely guilt-free, because it is summer, and boys are popular figures in school. Even if someone doesn't know him, they will more or less look back and observe him carefully because he is handsome.
With a face like that, wearing clothes splattered with red oil... you can't even imagine how crickets would attack him.
For example, this guy is so handsome, why does he not pay attention to hygiene?
Or maybe this person is too poor to afford a clean short-sleeved school uniform?
What's more, the teasing between boys is always everywhere, without any malice but occasionally harsh.
Xu Sui was worried about him.
After eating, everyone went back together. This time, the boys walked faster, and the three girls walked slowly behind them, chatting.
"Which university do you want to apply to? It seems like the college entrance examination is coming soon. There should be a shouting activity in a few days." Xu Zhiyao said, kicking the pebbles on the road.
"For the sake of Tsinghua University and to ensure the smooth progress of Jiaotong University." Jiang Changjia said casually.
"Princess Niu, if you become rich and powerful, please don't forget me!" Xu Zhiyao clenched his fists and bowed deeply.
"I'll see if I can get into a better university and choose a good major to study." She added at the end.
"How about you, Sui Sui?"
"I don't know yet." Xu Sui smiled and followed the figure in the middle in front. I don't know what they were talking about, I kicked you and you pulled me as we moved forward.
He suddenly broke into a run, his school uniform clinging tightly to his body, outlining his slender waist. Three people were chasing him from behind, but he was very fast. After running a few steps and turning a corner, he disappeared at the end of the street.
The vigorous youthful atmosphere and boyish feeling are like ice lemon in summer, refreshing and refreshing.
**
The shouting activity is scheduled for mid-May. First-year high school students will not participate, only third-year high school students will participate.
The teaching building for the second grade of high school is in East Building 1, and the teaching building for the third grade of high school is in East Building 2. The two buildings are directly opposite each other through a corridor.
However, the key classes for the second and third year of high school are all in East Building 3, so they have to walk to East Building 1 and meet up with the second year base camp.
Before the event started, Xu Sui suddenly had a stomachache, so she called out to Jiang Changjia, who was waiting for her at the door: "I feel a little uncomfortable. I need to go to the bathroom. I'll find you later."
She looked unwell and her lips were pale.
Jiang Changjia looked worried: "Do you want me to go to the infirmary with you?"
Xu Sui shook his head and said softly, "It should be my menstrual period. I will drink some hot water later to relax."
"Okay, I'll wait for you on the second floor of East Building 1, Suisui." After Jiang Changjia said that, he went to find Xu Zhiyao. They had agreed to meet on the second floor.
Xu Sui panted as he took out a box of ibuprofen from his schoolbag, went to the classroom water dispenser to pour some warm water, picked out a pill and put it in his mouth, then drank the water to swallow it.
When the last person walked out of the classroom, he saw Xu Sui was still there, so he only turned off the lights in the back row and left the lights in the front row on.
After about ten minutes, she could faintly hear singing and students shouting. She got up from the table, slowly turned off the lights, and walked out of the classroom.
When they reached the junction of East Building 3 and East Building 2, the chorus became louder and louder. In order to enhance the atmosphere, the surrounding lights were turned off. Xu Sui could vaguely see the colorful glow sticks on the opposite side.
Just as he was about to walk over, he heard voices mixed in with the noise. They were not loud, but the voices were very recognizable. Xu Sui didn't want to interfere and didn't even look over there, but with the words "Bai Ruoxing, why do you think you can stop me?" Xu Sui stopped.
The darkness concealed her figure very well, and she retreated again. If she heard the voice correctly, it was Yu Jinglian's.
"Why? Why do you think you're qualified to pursue him? And with such a big influence? Are you just playing around or do you really like him? I'm sure you know it yourself. Although I know you can't catch up with him, I still choose to talk to you to save him unnecessary trouble."
Bai Ruoxing crossed her arms and looked coldly at the girl in front of her. The girl was obviously taller than her and had a bigger frame, but Bai Ruoxing was actually more imposing.
"Besides, we are on a different path from you, and we have different goals. We cannot work together. Think about it yourself and don't make things too embarrassing in the end." The girl raised her head slightly, with a cold and arrogant look in her eyes. She was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but she seemed to have known what she wanted, what to do, and how to find help very early.
After saying this, she turned and left. Xu Sui shrank back inside. Fortunately, they were all going to East Building 2 to participate in an event and did not come towards her.
Anyway, when Xu Sui arrived there, the event was almost halfway through. Everyone was singing "Goodbye" and "Those Years" together. It was very noisy and crowded. Xu Sui apologized while squeezing in.
She accidentally bumped into a solid wall, which knocked her completely unconscious. How could it be so hard?
"Tsk, who would bump into someone in the stomach while walking?" The boy's voice sounded teasingly in his ears, accompanied by several other familiar voices: "Luckily Yangyang is strong, if someone else hit you, you would at least have internal injuries."
"Sui Sui, you are finally here!"
"Hmm? Are you feeling better, Suisui?" It was the voices of Xu Zhiyao and Jiang Changjia.
She rubbed her head, and before she could say sorry, she heard his voice, tinged with laughter, mixed in with the noise of more than two thousand people, and carried by the hot summer wind into her ears: "Girls, you're quite strong."
She didn't quite remember what happened that day or how it ended. She only remembered his pleasant voice and that touch of warmth, and her uncontrollable blushing, partly from the heat and partly from the embarrassment.
As soon as the college entrance examination was over, they were about to become senior high school students. That year they only had about a week of summer vacation, and spent the rest of the time in school. The school required them to make up classes, which has been the rule for many years.
But Xu Sui didn't see Song Shiyang during the summer vacation. According to Xie Zhuoyuan and Jiang Changjia, he went to attend summer camp and participate in international competitions.
The progress of the biology competition class has also been accelerated. Preliminary selections will be held at the beginning of the senior year, and a round of selection will be conducted in the entire district.
In the competition class, Xu Sui would occasionally stop when passing by the boys' table piled with test papers. After looking around, he would quickly organize the test papers and put them into his drawer when no one was looking.
This is the thirty-second day since he's been away.
Xu Sui thought.
**
In early September, word began to spread within the school that someone in the city had won first prize in the Mathematics and Biology Olympiads.
As soon as the news came in, it caused an uproar.
The originally quiet and tense senior class suddenly became agitated, and everyone tried to find out who it was. There were only five people from the entire senior class going to the summer camp, including Jiang Song, Song Shiyang and three other boys.
Xu Sui didn't know those three people, so he didn't care about them.
As soon as the get out of class was over, she ran to the door of Class 1 and grabbed a classmate to ask him to help call Jiang Changjia. About a minute later, Jiang Changjia came out from the back door.
Before Xu Sui even asked, she said, "I don't know. I really don't know anything. Lao Zhao didn't say anything. Jiang Song and Brother Yang can't be contacted at all."
"But I think Brother Yang must have won a prize, because he started preparing for this last year. I don't know why, but he worked so hard. It is said that he returned from the winter camp on the Chinese New Year's Day." Jiang Changjia complained.
Xu Sui lowered his eyes when he heard this. No wonder he hadn't seen him once during the winter vacation. It turned out that he was no longer in Yu City.
"Hey, the bell is about to ring and we have a physics test in the next class. Suisui, I'm leaving first. Bye." Jiang Changjia ran in hurriedly.
Xu Sui blinked and entered the classroom. As soon as he entered, biology teacher Ye Zhen came in wearing high heels, holding a pile of test papers in her hands, and she looked very happy.
"Class representative, please help me distribute this. It's a two-class, ninety-minute exam."
Xu Sui took the test papers from her and began handing them out to the first group. Ye Zhen took the opportunity to casually say something while handing out the papers: "You all know that someone from City No. 1 won first prize in the International Olympiad this time. Everyone, work hard. There are many competitions to participate in during your senior year, and they all have score discounts. Biology, in particular, isn't difficult. If you work hard and put your heart into it, everyone will pass."
Everyone was so excited that their blood boiled and they kept saying it was a good idea.
"After the physics exam in mid-September, maybe we'll get another award for the No. 1 city university." Ye Zhen smiled.
This caused another round of "Wow".
After handing out the test papers, Xu Sui sat back in his seat, staring at the gray-green test paper in front of him for a long time. Cicadas were chirping outside the window. It was already early autumn, but why were they still so noisy? The temperature didn't seem to drop.
The five people came back at the end of September and were brought back by a car rented by the school.
Many people were lying on the white tile countertops, looking down. Xu Sui was working on her last physics problem when someone passed by and said, "Hey, our five competition students from the senior year are back. I heard one of them got first place in both math and biology."
Upon hearing this, Xu Sui suddenly stood up and ran to the door. When he turned around, he saw someone coming up the stairs over there. He froze in place, his breathing weak.
Because he came directly to school, he didn't wear school uniform. He wore a simple black shirt and black pants, with a matching jacket on the outside with the zipper unzipped. His eyes showed fatigue, but more importantly, he was full of energy.
Jiang Song next to him also curled his lips and smiled in a playful manner, and the three people behind him also smiled shyly.
Xu Sui leaned against the wall and looked at him quietly. Song Shiyang glanced at the door of Class 1 and saw Xu Sui. Their eyes met unexpectedly. Xu Sui smiled and said, "Congratulations."
He probably guessed what was said, and nodded with a frown. His smooth jaw drew an arc in the air and then fell back to its normal arc.
To become as good as he was the only heroism in her girlhood.
Take him as an example and stick to it.
That afternoon, during the seventh or eighth period, Song Shiyang finally showed up in the biology classroom after a long absence. The biology teacher smiled and said, "Congratulations."
He nodded politely in thanks, then pulled out the test paper he had distributed earlier from the drawer and called out, "Xu Sui."
Xu Sui looked up blankly. The boy on his left couldn't help but smile when he saw this. He leaned lazily on the back of the chair, as if all the strings had loosened.
"What's the matter?" Xu Sui clipped his bangs, which were slightly covering his eyes.
"Nothing, just thank you." He raised his head to indicate the neatly arranged drawers. The iron zipper kept hitting the chair with his movements, making a "clicking" sound.
"It's okay. Besides, didn't you help me clean up before?" Seeing the confusion and blankness on the boy's face, Xu Sui knew that he had forgotten again, so he whispered a reminder.
"Just, the days when I wasn't here during my freshman year."
Only after Xu Sui reminded him did he remember some things, but as the bell rang, neither of them said anything else.
It turns out that more than a year has passed in the blink of an eye.
