Chapter 36: Not a Bed-Staying
Soon, Jiang Fengyan realized that he had spoken too early.
Qin Yu moved a chair from the living room over and looked at a Chinese reading question with Jiang Fengyan. After waiting for more than ten minutes without seeing any movement from Jiang Fengyan, he couldn't help but ask, "You haven't finished reading the article yet?"
Jiang Fengyan: “…”
A few seconds later, Jiang Fengyan calmly closed the Chinese exercise book and put it at the bottom of the six exercise books. He took out a math exercise book and turned to the table of contents: "Which knowledge point do you want to listen to?"
Qin Yu didn't look at the table of contents, but suppressed his laughter and asked: "What levels of psychological feelings are expressed in the underlined paragraph just now?"
"I don't know." Jiang Fengyan had a dull expression.
Qin Yu laughed enough. Seeing that Jiang Fengyan was really not good at explaining language-related questions, he let Jiang Fengyan go and looked down at the exercise list: "Okay, then trigonometric functions."
The exercise book that Qin Yu picked was a collection of authentic finale questions from exams in various provinces and cities over the years. Any question was very difficult. Jiang Fengyan worked out the questions on the draft paper for a long time before he started to explain the questions to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu listened quietly, without interrupting or asking questions, and nodded only after Jiang Fengyan finished speaking.
An hour passed by unknowingly, and I had used several sheets of draft paper alone.
Qin Yu saw that it was almost time, so he stood up and walked to the living room to pour a glass of water for Jiang Fengyan: "Go to bed early, your clothes are in the closet, pick a set for yourself and go take a shower."
Jiang Fengyan closed his exercise book and draft book: "You wash first, I'll make a phone call."
Although Jiang Fengyan didn't say who he was going to call, Qin Yu could guess: "If she doesn't want you to stay here, then go back."
Jiang Fengyan lowered his eyes and bit his lip, then replied lightly with "hmm" before walking into the living room to make a phone call.
"Mom, I'm in North City and won't be going back tonight." Jiang Fengyan looked in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Opposite the building was a huge screen installed outside the building. The colorful neon lights shone into Jiang Fengyan's eyes.
"What are you doing in Beicheng?" Chen Lixue paused for a moment before realizing what Jiang Fengyan was talking about, and asked while suppressing her anger.
"Meeting a friend."
"Jiang Fengyan." Chen Lixue was already furious. "Before I transferred to this school, I said I would no longer participate in your social life, but you have been out all night for several times in the past half month. Is that reasonable?"
Jiang Fengyan had anticipated Chen Lixue's reaction, and said calmly, "I will go to school on time tomorrow."
Jiang Fengyan hung up the phone and looked out the window at the vehicles coming and going on the city streets. This city, which had previously brought him countless depressions, now did not seem so irritating.
Many people say that we should look forward and forget the past.
But Jiang Fengyan doesn't think so, because the road ahead is too complicated. It is easy to lose yourself if you just keep moving forward. Only by recalling the past appropriately can you constantly remind yourself what to do.
He doesn't care about fame, fortune, success or failure, and he doesn't want to care. What he wants is to live for himself.
The night sky is dotted with stars, and the moon is hiding in the clouds. As the earth rotates, it rises in the east and sets in the west. The morning sun slowly emerges from the top of a distant mountain, and the sunlight it brings covers the city with a layer of golden light.
Jiang Fengyan lied to Qin Yu and said that her mother agreed to let her stay overnight outside, and took Qin Yu's clothes and took a bath.
Qin Yu had been sleeping a lot recently, and he opened his eyes before Jiang Fengyan.
Morning is the time of the day when people are most awake. He looked at Jiang Fengyan lying beside him, and suddenly he couldn't believe that he would become friends with such a person.
After watching for a few minutes, Qin Yu felt that the time was about right, so he patted Jiang Fengyan on the shoulder and said in a normal speaking voice: "Get up."
Jiang Fengyan didn't move.
Qin Yu was a little puzzled. Was Jiang Fengyan such a deep sleeper?
"Get up and wash up." Qin Yu patted Jiang Fengyan again, with a little more force.
Jiang Fengyan then slowly opened his eyes, fumbled on the bed with his hands, and glanced at the time: "It's only six o'clock. I can get to school in half an hour. I can sleep for another twenty minutes."
Qin Yu: "Don't need to eat?"
Jiang Fengyan replied: "Eat in the car."
The morning reading session didn't start until seven o'clock, so he had enough time to sleep for another twenty minutes, but he didn't expect Jiang Fengyan to be so sleepy.
So, Qin Yu decided to wait twenty minutes before waking Jiang Fengyan up. However, just as he was about to get up, Jiang Fengyan grabbed his arm.
"Wait a moment." Jiang Fengyan pulled Qin Yu, his tone brooking no room for argument.
Qin Yu was stunned: "I'll go boil some milk."
"No need to cook." Jiang Fengyan still didn't want to let go.
Qin Yu was a little amused by Jiang Fengyan's behavior: "How old are you? You still stay in bed?"
"I'm not lying in bed." Jiang Fengyan raised his eyes and looked at Qin Yu. There was clearly no sleepiness in his eyes. "I'm lying to you."
Jiang Fengyan's eyes are very beautiful, especially in the morning when all emotions are at their haziest, without any trace of coldness that can be seen in normal times.
Qin Yu suddenly looked away, and after suppressing his unknowingly accelerated heartbeat, he turned his head again, leaned close to Jiang Fengyan, and said in a gentle voice: "Can I get up now?"
"..." Jiang Fengyan had to remember it no matter how much he didn't want to, "My heart is beating a little fast now."
"Oh." Qin Yu responded casually.
After they got up and washed up, they bought buns and soy milk at the breakfast shop downstairs and took a taxi to Ning'an.
The driver was afraid of being stuffy, so he opened the window to ventilate the car. The morning breeze blew into the car, bringing with it a hint of morning dew.
Qin Yu changed into his class uniform. The black sweatshirt made his already fair skin look even whiter. The strands of hair on his forehead were blown away by the wind, revealing his handsome face to a greater extent.
Jiang Fengyan sat beside Qin Yu, biting the straw and drinking soy milk. Seeing that they were about to arrive at school, he let go of the straw and asked: "What did you do at previous sports meets?"
"Sleeping, playing with my phone..." Qin Yu said as he looked at the increasingly familiar scenery outside the car window, "and participating in the competition."
Jiang Fengyan: "I signed up for two events, can you help me run one?"
Qin Yu was a little surprised. He turned around and looked at Jiang Fengyan with a scrutinizing look: "Will you sign up again?"
"They said you were not there and they were short of people running the 100-meter and 1,000-meter events, so I signed up," Jiang Fengyan replied.
Qin Yu was silent for a moment and stared at Jiang Fengyan again.
Jiang Fengyan calmly let Qin Yu watch him.
Qin Yu's eyes narrowed a little, and he said calmly: "Do you want to run a hundred meters or a thousand meters?"
Jiang Fengyan didn't hesitate: "One thousand meters."
Qin Yu: "Then I'll run a hundred meters."
After arriving at school, the two got off the car and walked to the classroom together, but they met Shen Chenan with an impatient look on his face on the way.
Shen Chenan lowered his head, releasing low pressure all over his body, and seemed to be unhappy with everyone he looked at.
Qin Yu walked over and greeted Shen Chenan: "What time did you go to bed last night? Why are you so sleepy?"
"It's none of your business..." Chen Chenan blurted out two words, and when he turned around and saw Qin Yu's face, his brain, which should have been frozen for at least half an hour, suddenly started up with a "boom".
Then, Qin Yu's neck was grabbed by someone, and the whole person was pulled down. At the same time, Shen Chenan's voice came from above his head: "You are finally willing to come to school."
