Time rewinds from the college graduation season to 10:36:50 p.m. on April 15, five years ago, an old bakery was still open, the red ribbon tied to the small ceiling fan turned three times quickly, some steamers were still steaming, and the clerk was holding the unsellable bread and staring at the young man and girl with a beautiful face in front of him.

The boy's face was flushed, his hair was disheveled, his coat was torn open, his bag was crooked, and his shoelaces were falling apart.

The girl looked at the boy in astonishment and did not speak for a long time.

Finally, the boy took a cautious step forward, while the girl crouched on the ground and covered her ears with her hands.

"I ......"

"Shut up. ”

“......”

The clerk really couldn't understand what was going on with the current high school students, and thought that it should be a little couple who had an awkward relationship, so he continued to handle the bread.

Li Ling got up and walked forward quickly, Jiang Zhiqing following closely behind him.

Suddenly, Li Ling froze, didn't look back, and said, "Don't follow me." ”

"I'll take you downstairs to your house. ”

"No, you go back quickly. ”

Jiang Zhiqing still didn't listen to Li Ling's words, and didn't return to school to pick up a bicycle until he saw her enter the gate of the community.

The confession came too violently, and it was difficult to calm down for a while, and Li Ling couldn't sleep all night.

"Li Ling!"

"I like you!"

The short, powerful words seemed to echo through the room, and his nervous and flustered appearance lingered in his mind.

The moment the confession reached his ears, Li Ling felt that the rhythm of his heartbeat was as dense as the drumbeat in heavy metal music, and it hit the depths of his soul again and again, and the blood in his whole body was boiling, boiling so much that the whole person was about to explode.

The cars seemed to disappear, the shops on the street seemed to be invisible, and the light of the street lamps was like a yellow net, covering only him and her, and a full sense of suffocation arose from within.

She was overwhelmed by the unprecedented feeling.

The next day, Li Ling tried to bypass the back row no matter where she went, no longer looking back, Jiang Zhiqing just walked to the side when she was loading water, even if she only filled half of the water, she immediately ran back to her seat.

At the end of the evening self-study, Li Ling immediately picked up his schoolbag and left as soon as he heard the bell for the end of class, and Jiang Zhiqing quickly followed when he saw this.

There were a lot of people in the corridor, Jiang Zhiqing's arm was close to Li Ling's shoulder, Li Ling wanted to escape but it was difficult to pass through the crowd.

As soon as he stepped out of the school gate, Li Ling's wrist was gently grabbed, and his heart trembled violently.

"Wait a minute, I'll go get the car. ”

Li Ling quickly broke free and walked straight forward, Jiang Zhiqing sighed and chased after him.

"Li Ling. ”

Except for yesterday's confession, Jiang Qingqing almost didn't call Li Ling's name directly, and it was the first time she called her in such a serious tone, and she couldn't help but stop.

"What are you afraid of?"

Li Ling's fingers clenched his pants.

"I'm telling you I don't like you to burden you. ”

When I heard these four words again, my heart was still beating violently.

"Don't hide from me......"

He said it very softly.

"Can I keep sending you......"

There was a hint of pleading in his tone.

Gentleness is the most inspiring, Li Ling just wants to raise the white flag and surrender.

"You...... Don't send it tonight, I'll send it next week. ”

The corners of Jiang Zhiqing's lips hooked slightly: "Okay." ”

Li Ling walked eagerly, and when he walked to the community, he slowly looked back, and Jiang Zhiqing did not continue to follow.

On the weekend, Li Ling lay in bed and seriously thought about what was wrong with him.

Why does he obviously like Jiang Zhiqing, but he happens to like himself, shouldn't he feel extremely excited and cheering now that he has confessed? Why is it more fear and retreat?

After thinking about it, I finally figured out my thoughts, and one of the most important points is that I never thought about what would happen if two people were together.

How should we get along with each other after a relationship has undergone a deeper change? How should we talk about falling in love? If we fall in love at such an age, we will be branded as "early love" and accused of "stealing forbidden fruits", so how should we face the discussion of others? Is it an open or underground relationship? How long can we be together?

If only there was a love mentor by his side at this moment.

......

I had to study on Sunday night, this time Li Ling didn't hide from Jiang Zhiqing, and sat in the back seat of his car as always, but both of them were silent, and they didn't say a word until they were separated, and they were like this for several days in a row.

In chemistry class, a chemistry teacher with a strong Hunan accent spoke with great interest: "Phenolic resin is a polymer compound formed by the condensation of phenols and aldehydes under the catalytic action of acid or alkali, such as phenol and formaldehyde...... Today, I want to demonstrate the preparation and property experiments of phenolic resin to the students, and I would like to invite two students to go to the podium to do the experiments themselves. ”

Probably no one can escape Murphy's Law.

"Eno Kiyoshi and ......"

Many people whispered Li Ling's name.

"Li Ling. ”

In an instant, the whole class burst into laughter, and even whistled.

If it was before, Li Ling might not have been shocked by this, but now it may be psychological, and he feels as if he has really done something unseemly.

The teacher felt inexplicable: "Why? You are so happy to draw handsome guys and beauties? Later, I will ask a few students who are now calling very happily to get up and answer the questions." ”

Everyone closed their mouths in amusement.

"All the experimental equipment and experimental drugs have been prepared, and the protective measures must be taken before the experiment, and the two students put on rubber gloves first. ”

The rubber gloves are all the same model, which is a bit small for Jiang Zhiqing, and it is difficult to put it in with one hand, Li Ling was worried about delaying the class time, so he didn't hesitate to help him put the glove cover on his hand.

Jiang Zhiqing said softly, "Thank you", which was the first thing he said to Li Ling this week.

First of all, Li Ling was asked to add 2g of phenol to the test tube in a paper trough, and Jiang Zhiqing used a graduated cylinder to pack 3ml of formaldehyde solution with a mass fraction of 40%...... Then add 3g of concentrated hydrochloric acid to the test tube, shake the test tube, and pay attention to the phenomenon ......"

"Jiang Zhiqing prepared a water bath heating device, lit the alcohol lamp, and troubled Li Ling to plug the test tube with a rubber plug with a glass catheter, which would play a role in condensation and reflux, and then put the test tube in a water bath to heat ......"

The water was slowly heating on the flame of the alcohol lamp, and Li Ling felt that the air between her and Jiang Zhiqing was also gradually heating up, and she kept telling herself in her heart to calm down.

"The students have seen that a white solid has formed at the bottom of the test tube, and then we add an appropriate amount of ethanol. ”

Jiang Zhiqing and Li Ling were very cautious in following the steps, and they cooperated very well under the guidance of the teacher.

"Thank you very much to these two students, this is the most perfect time I have asked my classmates to come up and do experiments in the few classes I teach. You two are great and can go back. ”

On the way back to his seat, Jiang Zhiqing couldn't help but look at Wen Jinxing's position, and sure enough, Wen Jinxing was staring at him.

Wen Jinxing's eyes were full of deep hostility, but Jiang Zhiqing did not avoid such a gaze in the slightest.

In fact, Wen Jinxing was slightly surprised, because in the eyes just now, Jiang Zhiqing, who had always looked desireless, showed a look in his eyes that he had never seen before.

It was a defiant look.
