Shengxia finished writing the composition, and there were still a few minutes left. She carefully observed Zhang Shu. Because of the injury on his shoulder, he could not lift his left arm, and therefore could not hold down the test paper. The test paper kept shaking, so he wrote very slowly.
After the exam, the teacher came over to collect the papers and glanced at Zhang Shu with a look of regret.
Because of the action of collecting the papers, Shengxia saw his composition. He had only written a few lines, probably just the beginning.
After the exam, Zhang Sujin came to pick up Zhang Shu. He needed to go back home to take medicine and get an IV drip, and would come back in the afternoon.
This is very troublesome, but there is nothing we can do.
After dinner, Shengxia went to a stationery store to buy an inkstone, but couldn't find one, so she took a taxi to Yifang Bookstore.
When I walked into Yifang Bookstore again, Shengxia always felt a sense of empathy.
After resuming normal operations, the bookstore's popularity has increased instead of decreased, with many people visiting even on weekdays.
The boss's arm was cut, not too seriously, but he was still hanging by his neck. Seeing Shengxia, he became more enthusiastic than before. He asked about Zhang Shu's injury and described the scene of the day in vivid detail, which made Shengxia sweat profusely.
After this chat, Shengxia returned to school and it was too late to take a nap, so she went straight to the classroom.
Zhang Shu arrived at the exam point and saw the inkstone on the table. He was stunned for a while, and then he caught a glimpse of the price tag on the base that had not been torn off in time. The "Yi Fang" trademark was clearly printed on it.
In fact, he knew who sent it without even looking at it.
There was something eerily similar about history, and he couldn't help but think of the criminal law book.
Zhang Shu turned his head and said softly, "Come over here for a moment."
Although there is no subject in this sentence, the students nearby all know who is being called.
The exam was about to start. The invigilator had already arrived and was showing the sealed papers. Shengxia crouched down beside him and asked, "What's wrong?"
She was squatting, shorter than he was when he was sitting. Zhang Shu couldn't reach her even when he lowered his head, so he could only reach over her head and whisper, "I will finish it well. You concentrate on the test and don't look at me anymore. I'm nervous."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cough was heard. Shengxia quickly shook off his hand and raised her head, only to see the invigilator holding the test paper and staring at them with a completely speechless expression.
Shengxia panicked and quickly hunched back to her seat, taking deep breaths and trying to block out the interested gazes around her.
The test papers were handed out. Shengxia filled in her name and student number and subconsciously wanted to look up at him again, but she held back when she remembered what he had said.
Strange, does he have eyes on the back of his head? How does he know she is looking at him?
With an inkstone pressing down on the test paper, Zhang Shu finally regained some speed in answering the questions.
But Shengxia didn't check whether he had finished writing or not, because except for Chinese, she was not so proficient in other subjects.
The news that Zhang Shu had returned to take the exam spread throughout the grade on the first day. During the few days after the exam and before the papers were graded, everyone was wondering whether he could maintain his first place.
On the eve of the results being released, even Tao Zhizhi sent a message asking about Zhang Shu's situation.
Not only the affiliated high school is paying attention, other schools are also keeping an eye on it.
After the accident, Zhang Shu's influence became even greater. Shengxia sometimes hypothesized: If she had not transferred to the affiliated high school, she would have heard of Zhang Shu's name by now.
Shengxia replied to Tao Zhizhi: "He will try his best and get the best result within his current ability."
She saw with her own eyes that he had only written a few lines of the composition, and it was absolutely impossible for him to finish first.
This is indeed the case, but many people still couldn't believe it, as Zhang Shu only ranked over 300th in the Affiliated High School.
I failed in Chinese, but my score in math was high, but not that high. I got 148 points in English, and my overall performance in science was average.
In the cafeteria, the washroom, the corridors, and even on the Internet, there was a constant stream of voices criticizing Zhang Shu.
You can hear a lot of it in midsummer.
Some people stopped talking immediately when they saw her, and then started talking again when she walked away.
"It's such a pity for Zhang Shu, because he wanted to save that transfer student, really! Oh, so annoying, the affiliated high school could have produced a top student with a great score this year."
"Who said it wasn't? Oh, it's such a pity, isn't it?"
"And if you look at Zhang Shu's qualifications, he will definitely become an Internet celebrity once the college entrance examination scores are released, okay?"
"It's been many years since the Affiliated High School has produced such a person."
"Do you think it will be too late to wait until Zhang Shu recovers from his injuries?"
"It's definitely too late. I think it's hard for him to get into the bottom 985 universities. Our school is ranked over 300th. There is no one like him in the city, not to mention the provincial ranking. Zhang Shu is no longer good enough. The school will definitely give up on him."
"Oh, it's a shame the more I talk about it, I get angry even when it's nothing to do with you."
Shengxia stood outside the bathroom door, her body stiff.
She didn't move until two girls came out and bumped into her.
The two girls looked panicked at first, then acted indifferent. When they walked past Shengxia, they even bumped into her.
Shengxia turned around and said to the two people as they left: "Please apologize."
The two girls turned their heads in surprise. Then, the leading girl walked towards Shengxia and looked at her with amusement, "Why apologize? Am I wrong? If it weren't for you, would Zhang Shu be injured? Would he go from being the best in the city to being like this now? Don't you know how sinful you are? You jinx! Why should I apologize to you?"
Shengxia was not as tall as the girl, so she raised her chin slightly and stared at the girl, "I'm not talking about apologizing to me, I'm talking about apologizing to Zhang Shu."
The two girls looked at each other, then looked at Shengxia with contempt, as if to say, "What kind of joke are you playing?"
Sheng Xia: "Do you know him? Do you understand him? No one has the right to say that he is too late, no one has the right to say that he is not capable. Please apologize!"
The girl in the lead was indeed shocked.
We were on the same floor, so I was quite familiar with Shengxia. I would always bump into her when she went to get water or go to the bathroom. Occasionally I heard her chatting with classmates. She was very gentle and seemed easy to bully.
But this calm look and cold tone were indeed unexpected.
"Please apologize to Zhang Shu!"
There was some sob in Shengxia's voice, but it was still sonorous.
Haha, it's just a paper tiger.
The girl thought about it, laughed, and reached out to push Shengxia, "What do you care? What qualifications do you have? What's wrong with me saying something about him? It's none of your business."
Shengxia took a step back and stood straight. The girl, relying on her height advantage, approached her step by step and pushed her again, "You public nuisance, why are you pretending to be so arrogant?"
The girl pushed her, and Shengxia took a step back, finally, to the edge of the stairs. Unable to endure any longer, Shengxia quickly dodged to the side when the girl reached out her hand again. The girl didn't push her, but she lost her balance and staggered down the stairs, falling flat on her face with a loud "Ah--".
The stairs are not high, only two or three steps, and there is green grass below.
It's not a serious injury, but it definitely hurts.
The girl's companion hurried down to help her, "How is it?"
The girl rolled over and sat up straight, hissing. She raised her hands and saw that both her palms were rubbed red and there was a little mud on her chin. She looked at Shengxia angrily, "You!"
"You apologize!" Shengxia kept repeating while holding the water cup. Tears suddenly flowed from the corners of her eyes. It was so sudden and gushing that the tears seemed to have stopped.
Shengxia swallowed with difficulty, trying to swallow the thing at the back of her throat, but in vain.
Because she didn't know what it was.
When she heard the words "no such person", she felt as if her heart had been stabbed, and something unknown gushed out and stuck in her throat.
It's so uncomfortable.
How can a dazzling boy be described like this?
The two rooms were blocked, and students passing by gathered around to watch. Someone ran to Class Six to inform the class, and Hou Junqi came running over.
God knows how he felt when he heard that "Shengxia was bullied". If something happened to Shengxia, how would he explain it?
Then I saw this scene: the usually frail girl was standing at the corridor, looking down at the two girls fighting at the bottom of the stairs, the movement of holding the water cup looked like she was crossing her arms, her whole aura was overwhelming.
Who is bullying whom?
Hou Junqi's first reaction was to pick up his phone to take a photo.
Students around: …
The girl was unwilling to give in and scolded, "I was the one who fell. Why are you crying? I hate women like you the most. You only know how to cry! Do you think you are right just because you cry?"
Only then did Hou Junqi notice that Shengxia was crying.
So did the students who were watching.
On the one hand, it was because she was standing in the front, and on the other hand, her high profile made everyone ignore the fact that she was crying.
Shengxia was too focused and didn't notice Hou Junqi coming over. Then a huge shadow covered her. Hou Junqi stood in front of her and put his hands behind him to protect her.
She opened her mouth and said lightly, "Because she saw something dirty and wanted to wash her eyes."
There was a burst of laughter from all around.
The girl was speechless, and didn't even dare to stare at the tall and strong Hou Junqi.
The commotion was so loud that the director of political education came and took several people to the office. The onlookers scattered like birds and beasts.
After finding out the whole story, the director of political education let them all go. However, out of the principle of "the victim", he asked the two girls to apologize. He also asked Wang Wei to take Shengxia and Hou Junqi back for criticism and education, and then to stand in the corridor for a class to reflect on their mistakes.
Hou Junqi muttered, "What era is this? Are you facing the wall to reflect on your mistakes? Are you a retro person?"
The director of political education was furious, and Wang Wei quickly came over and pulled the man away.
Shengxia has never been punished in his life.
But she stood willingly.
She should reflect on her mistakes - she is actually discussing her own shortcomings with mediocre people.
If everyone could understand Zhang Shu, how ordinary would he be?
“How can the dust and mud melt a pure heart?” How could she have forgotten this?
In the evening, Shengxia took Zhang Shu's test paper to the hospital.
Except for Wang Wei, other teachers didn't know that she had stopped taking classes at the study abroad institution, so no one cared about her absence during the evening classes. Even so, Shengxia was still anxious because of the missed classes.
She just didn't care, she wanted to see him right away.
Although he didn't get the test paper, the score was recorded on the school inspection system, so Zhang Shu must have known the result.
He hasn't scored so low in an exam since he was divided into arts and science, right?
Climbing up high and then falling hard, what a blow would that be?
Shengxia tried to put herself in her shoes, but she knew that no one could truly empathize with her.
She knew he would feel bad, but when she looked through the small window and saw his dejected and frustrated look, her heart still tightened.
He was sitting at the desk that Zhang Sujin had prepared for him, staring at his phone in a daze. His hair was messy, as if he had been repeatedly grabbed when he was extremely annoyed, and there was stubble on his lips.
This was the first time in midsummer that I saw Zhang Shu with a beard.
A little strange.
Shengxia's eyes suddenly became red with tears and she felt extremely heartbroken, but she forced her tears back, took a deep breath, and knocked on the door.
Zhang Shu thought it was Zhang Sujin who came, so he didn't pay much attention. When the person came closer, he smelled a sweet fragrance and suddenly raised his head -
Why didn't she tell him before she came?
Zhang Shu was a little confused.
The black screen of his cell phone reflected his appearance, which was as slovenly as it could be.
Zhang Shu loosened his grip and the phone fell onto the table with a clang.
Perhaps he had touched the power button, the screen lit up again, and on it was the page of the supervision system. He enlarged the score bar and it was stopped at the Chinese score. A huge "78" was particularly eye-catching.
"Why are you here?" he asked unconsciously.
He is so upset.
In fact, he was quite casual during his hospitalization, often not shaving for several days. He would only tidy up simply when she was coming.
Because he couldn't bend over and the caregiver was a man, he felt uncomfortable when the caregiver wiped his face, and even more uncomfortable when the caregiver shaves him. He really didn't like having his chin pinched by a man.
So I can only try to reduce the number of times I shave.
At first, his sister shaved him, but once Lu Zheng saw it and banned it directly.
Although Zhang Shu felt extremely speechless, if he put himself in Shengxia's shoes, he would definitely not be able to bear it if Shengxia shaved her brother's beard.
Although she has no younger brother.
This……
Why did she come here suddenly?
She is so clean that she must be disgusted with him.
"I'm here to give you the test paper." Shengxia replied.
He carefully observed her reaction, and sure enough, she didn't even look at him.
Are you really giving up?
Zhang Shu put the paper aside and stood up. Shengxia hurriedly supported him, and Zhang Shu's body stiffened.
Because of the sudden approach, she didn't know how to keep the distance and her whole body was pressed against his arm.
Zhang Shu just felt something squeeze his arm. It was a feeling he had never experienced before. Like cotton candy? No, not really. Not really.
He was stunned.
There is only one idea in my mind——
Summer is soft and fluffy.
The precision of the wording used in this note makes Xin Xiaohe a contemporary literary giant.
