"Yunyun, come quickly and have breakfast. It's better to go early on the first day of school."
The woman in her home pajamas and off-white apron brought the freshly cooked century egg and lean meat porridge to the dining table and shouted into the room.
"Mom, I know. I'll be there soon."
A girl's crisp response was heard from the room, and then the door creaked open, and a green and white figure was seen walking quickly from the room to the bathroom in small steps.
The toilet door closed.
"What a child! She is not like this usually. She doesn't even get up early on the first day of high school." Liang's mother turned around and saw her daughter in a hurry.
Mr. Liang was wearing a dark blue suit and was sitting at the dining table, reading the morning financial news on his phone. Hearing this, he looked up and smiled, "Don't worry, Yunyun knows what's going on."
Liang Qiyun couldn't hear clearly the murmuring of her parents outside because of the toilet door and the sound of running water, but she could probably guess what they were talking about.
After washing up, she wiped the water droplets on her face with a towel and looked up at the mirror hanging on the sink.
The girl in the mirror had skin as white as snow, almond eyes and thin eyebrows, but her eyes were filled with a soft light, adding a bit of tenderness. Her small cherry mouth was rosy, which must be because she had a good sleep last night.
Liang Qiyun looked at herself in the mirror. Maybe it was because the sun was shining brightly outside the window, or maybe it was because she was going to a new class today. She smiled at herself in the mirror, her dimples faintly visible.
"Come on, Liang Qiyun, we must make more friends this time."
She walked to the dining table and sat down. In front of her was a bowl of century egg and lean meat porridge. The hot steam was rising, but she didn't feel bored.
Liang Qiyun raised her eyes, smiled and said coquettishly to Liang's mother, "Mom, you are so kind. You have worked so hard."
Before going to bed last night, Liang's mother came into her room and asked her what she wanted for breakfast, so she got up early to prepare it.
At that time, Liang Qiyun was still anxious about going to school tomorrow, so she replied according to her true thoughts, "I want to drink preserved egg and lean meat porridge tomorrow."
Hearing this, Liang's mother smiled and said, "It's not hard. Yunyun, drink it quickly. Your dad will drive you to school later."
"Okay." Liang Qiyun responded obediently.
Liang Qiyun went directly down from the elevator to the underground garage and sat directly in the back seat of the car, while Liang's father drove around to the left side.
Liang's mother stood by and said through the car window, "Yunyun, be careful on the road. Mom is waiting for you to come back home."
Her words were filled with worry.
"Don't worry, Mom. I will take care of my own health." Liang Qiyu leaned against the car window and comforted her mother softly, fearing that she would worry all day at home.
Liang's father also leaned out of the car window. His voice was a little deep, yet steady. "Yes, Shufen, don't worry. If you don't leave now, Yunyun will be late."
Seeing her daughter and husband say this, Li Shufen finally felt relieved. She waved her hand and urged them, "Then hurry up and leave. Yunyun, don't be late. Lao Liang, it's almost time for you. You have to go to work later."
"Goodbye, Mom. I'll be back in the evening."
"Okay, mom is waiting for you at home."
After saying goodbye to Liang's mother, Liang Qiyun moved to sit in the middle of the back seat of the car. She put one hand on her schoolbag beside her and turned the key chain hanging on the zipper of the schoolbag out of boredom.
The red light ahead came on and the slow-moving traffic came to a standstill.
Liang Kangcheng looked at his daughter's bored look in the rearview mirror, and he couldn't help but say, "Yunyun, don't worry when you go to school. Dad has already told your class teacher about your situation, and he will make arrangements."
"Okay, I'm fine." Liang Qiyun knew about this. It was Liang's father who handled the procedures for her military training for high school entrance.
There were quite a few cars parked in front of the entrance of L Middle School. Most of the children in green and white school uniforms got out of the cars, and the private cars immediately drove forward and left.
Liang Kangcheng stopped for a while longer. He looked at his daughter through the car window. The girl was slender, and the green and white school uniform that was a little too big for her swayed as she walked. The ponytail tied at the back of her head hung down her back obediently, making her look particularly well-behaved.
He sighed, unable to hide his worry, but he was in a hurry to get to work, and the car behind him honked impatiently. Liang Kangcheng had no choice but to turn the steering wheel and drive towards the company.
After Liang Qiyun entered the school gate, she walked along the school road, passed through the green trees to the teaching building, walked up the stairs one step at a time, and stopped at the front door of the classroom on the second floor near the stairs.
She raised her head slightly and saw a sign hanging on the side of the front door - Class 1, Grade 1.
Since she was admitted to L Middle School, she only came on the day of registration. Later, her father Liang Kangcheng came to pay tuition and collect school uniforms, including submitting materials for exemption from military training.
Today is September 1st, the first day of school, and also her second time at L Middle School.
This is the place where I will stay for the next three years and work hard for the college entrance examination.
Liang Qiyun walked into the classroom and stood in the first row, avoiding the entrance.
It was not too early, and the classroom was full of people in groups of three or four, all sitting in their own seats. They were wearing the same school uniforms, with bright smiles on their faces, and seemed to be very familiar with each other.
Looking around, I saw that everyone was already sitting at the same table as me, and there were people sitting at the tables in front and behind me.
She looked to her right rear and saw a girl with shoulder-length hair lying on the table, twirling a pen in her hand out of boredom.
The girl raised her head, her eyebrows and eyes showing to the people.
Liang Qiyun suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. She had a good memory and remembered immediately that this was the girl who stood in front of her on the day of registration.
The two even greeted each other at that time.
Compared to this girl, she is even less familiar with the others.
Recalling the self-encouragement she gave herself in front of the mirror in the bathroom that morning, Liang Qiyun's feet unconsciously rubbed against the concrete floor.
She still mustered up the courage to walk through the rows of tables and chairs, walked around to the table next to the girl, and asked with a smile, "Classmate, can I sit here?"
The girl raised her head when she heard Wen Wan's voice, and looked at the girl in front of her for a few times. She nodded and said, "Sit down, there's no one here."
Everyone knew what this meant. At least with this nod, the two of them would be sitting at the same table for the time being.
Liang Qiyun smiled immediately, with a faint dimple at the corner of her mouth, "Okay, thank you."
She hung her schoolbag on the back of a chair and then sat down on a chair near the aisle.
The girl lowered her head and continued to stare blankly, seemingly having no desire to talk.
Liang Qiyun thought about it and didn't say anything else. Taking the initiative to talk just now was already a big improvement in her interpersonal relationships.
The classroom was getting more and more lively, and most people came in groups. Most people chose seats in the middle rows, and some people sat in the front rows.
In the past, Liang Qiyun was also used to sitting in the front row.
But today, she wanted to take the initiative to get to know some classmates.
She looked at the blackboard and could still make out the scattered chalk words in the upper right corner.
This finally made me feel relieved.
Suddenly, there was a noise of boys coming from the back door. Liang Qiyun withdrew her gaze from the blackboard and looked sideways at the back door.
Four or five tall boys came in from the front and back, all grinning, talking about the noise in the dormitory next door last night.
Liang Qiyun took a quick glance and her eyes were fixed on the young man who walked in last.
The boy is tall, with handsome features, and a distinct jawline when he speaks from the side.
He was wearing a green and white school uniform, short-sleeved shirt and long pants, with the collar buttoned to his neck, looking very formal.
The male classmate who was walking side by side with him put his hand on the boy's shoulder and said with a smile, "Mingzheng, let's just sit in the last row. Otherwise, the place is small and we have nowhere to stretch our long legs."
"Look how capable you are. Just sit in the back row." The young man smiled freely, nodded in agreement, and did not forget to retort.
His voice is clear and mellow, unlike other boys who have a hoarse voice during their voice change period.
No matter how noisy the classroom was, Liang Qiyun could still hear the boy's casual reply.
Ming Zheng.
Liang Qiyun was afraid of being seen, so she pretended to glance away casually.
She silently repeated these two words in her heart, and she felt that they were very familiar. Before Liang Qiyun could figure out what was going on, she heard a noise coming from beside her.
It was the sound of a chair being pulled apart and rubbing against the floor.
The young man's clear and gentle voice became clearer and clearer. He responded to his desk mate's nagging words from time to time, but there was no trace of impatience in his voice.
Liang Qiyun looked over and saw the handsome young man sitting next to her, with an aisle between them.
Perhaps influenced by the conversation just now, she subconsciously lowered her gaze and saw the boy's long legs slightly bent and casually spread out outside the desk.
She looked back at herself. Her 1.6-meter-tall body and legs were bent into the desk, just one centimeter away from touching the desk.
He is tall and his long legs cannot fit inside the desk.
If you sit in the middle or front row, with your legs outside the desk close to the aisle, it will undoubtedly block the way.
Boys are very active. If the classroom is crowded and the desks are crowded, they will not be able to move at all once they sit down.
Liang Qiyun used to sit in the second row. Since she seldom got up and walked around, the narrow space gave her enough sense of security and she sat quite comfortably.
This time, I sat in the back row, where there was plenty of room to move around and a storage box behind me, which was a different experience.
Just as I was thinking, the bell rang and the classroom quickly became quiet. Soon a middle-aged man with a bald head and a kind smile walked in from the front door.
He stood on the podium and looked around at the students. Seeing that they were all in high spirits, he smiled and nodded, saying, "It seems that everyone had a good rest yesterday. I will not give a lecture today and make arrangements for the class in advance."
Liang Qiyun then realized that this was her class teacher Liu Tao. She had only been to school on the day of registration, and the classes had not yet been divided.
The first time she met her head teacher after the class division was the day before the military training. She happened to be in the hospital, so today was the first time she met her head teacher.
Everyone else looked as if they were getting used to it, and even the boys in the back row occasionally responded loudly to the head teacher, causing everyone to laugh. The atmosphere was quite good.
Liang Qiyun sighed softly and listened to the head teacher silently.
I heard our head teacher Liu Tao first talk about the importance of high school, how it is an important stage in life, a critical moment in growth, etc.
As soon as the conversation changed, he said, "An excellent class cannot do without a serious and responsible class committee. Let's first decide on the class committee in this class."
"After the military training, everyone has a general understanding of the students. Students who are interested can come on stage to run for election later."
Liang Qiyun had never been interested in being a class committee member, so she didn't take it seriously. She turned her head and noticed that her new deskmate was playing with her fingernails with her head down, and she knew that she had the same attitude.
There were discussions coming from the front row of the classroom, probably because someone wanted to run for election.
She noticed that the boy across the aisle to her right was also quiet, and even his deskmate rarely spoke, as if they were in two different worlds from the bustle in the front row.
Who knew that Liu Tao, the head teacher on the podium, suddenly said, "Zhou Mingzheng's entrance score was the first in our grade. During the military training, he also served as the temporary monitor and led our class to win the title of excellent class. His ability is obvious to everyone."
"I want to make him the monitor of our class directly."
Liu Tao looked directly at the last row and asked with a smile, "Ming Zheng, do you agree?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the classroom looked at the boy in the last row, waiting for his answer.
This time, Liang Qiyun looked at the young man on her right without any hesitation.
It turns out his name is Zhou Mingzheng.
Zhou Mingzheng was ranked first on the list of freshmen admission scores posted at the time of the report.
