Chen Qing stayed in Rongcheng for eight days and stayed in a hotel not far from his home.

Her house is located in an old alley, a small two-bedroom apartment, not only old on the outside, but also old on the inside. The room is not breathable, every rainy day, the house is stuffy, especially in the rainy season, more than 20 days of rain, it is like a nightmare.

On the day he received He Junyan's call, Chen Qing finally decided to go back.

The interior is quiet and unpopular, the position of the sporadic old furniture remains unchanged, all of them are covered with dust, the door has not been opened for a long time, the environment is suffocating, and many have begun to grow mold and decay.

She stood in the doorway for a few moments before she stepped forward, and the reason for her hesitation was not just the foul smell in the air.

His gaze slowly swept over the furnishings in the room, and a familiar figure seemed to appear in his sight, his gaudy face and brows furrowed all the time, his thin lips pursed deeply always contained anger, and the palm of his unpleasant, brightly painted nails waved down heavily. The moment the pain hit, the cocoon in her palm also exposed the roughness she tried to hide in every possible way.

The woman was a madman, with a strong appearance and unwilling to be mediocre, but all her life she was inferior and philistine, armed with heavy makeup, surrounded by cheap cosmetics, and daydreaming every day.

She was Chen Qing's mother, and in the first few decades of her life, they faced each other day and night.

For Chen Qing, compared to this house, she is the real nightmare.

Memories of being chased and beaten all over the room, huddled by the wall, shivering and suffering slaps and kicks, came back one after another.

Closing his eyes, Chen Qing clenched his palms and let out a long sigh.

When the depression in her chest slowly dissipated, she walked in slowly, her hands stroking everywhere, and her heart was astringent.

There were two bedrooms inside, one of which was hers, Chen Qing tried to twist the doorknob, pushed hard, and the bottom of the wooden door rubbed the ground with a stagnation sound, and a damp musty smell hit his face.

A desk, a bed, and a wardrobe are the only three things in the room.

Chen took two steps lightly, and found that there was nothing to go in the small room, so he stood still at his desk. I opened the drawer, and unexpectedly struggled, it contained some homework books and miscellaneous items, and after sitting for too long, the pages were wet and dry, slightly crumpled. Flipping it down casually, she suddenly saw a hard-shell book pressed underneath, she paused, took it out, and found that it was her previous diary.

When she first went to the university to report, she only picked up documents and a few necessities, and bought the rest later, especially since she hadn't kept a diary for a long time, so she didn't bring them.

The small lock on the shell was loose, and it fell down with a slight break, Chen Qing flipped through a few pages, almost all of them were negative content, the pain and grievance after being beaten and scolded, the troubles of the current situation, and the precocious feeling that life was gloomy, each page was retelling to her the helplessness and despair at the beginning.

There is only one page that is different.

Mixed with a lot of heavy thoughts, she wrote only three words in her diary one day.

He Junyan.

Chen stared at it for a long time, touched the place where the handwriting was slightly blurred, and finally closed the notebook and put it in his bag, and turned to go out.

Rongcheng Fuxing Middle School is located by the moat, with six orange buildings and three playgrounds, forming a campus.

The day before she went back, Chen Qing went back to her former alma mater.

She deliberately chose the time after school in the afternoon and before the evening self-study, and there were not many students staying in the school, so it was relatively quiet. When she entered, the doorman interrogated her twice, and learned that she was a graduate, and only told her to let her go before she came out before class.

Chen Qing walked around, passing by the teaching building and the real yàn room one by one, and finally stopped in front of the school commissary.

The former store has been replaced, and the store has been converted from a small kiosk to a slightly larger façade, and some students did not go out to eat, but bought two bread to cushion their stomachs, and chatted with the owner in the store while eating.

She found a stone bench to sit down, and was stunned for a while, when a tall boy in a school uniform suddenly came next to her.

"Sister, are you looking for a place? You tell me, I can take you! ”

When he raised his eyes, the boy in front of him smiled enthusiastically, his appearance was clean and generous, and he looked very sunny, but his smile couldn't help but bring a little shyness.

"No need." She smiled back, "I'll just sit here." ”

"Really? I know each other very well in our school, and it will take a lot of time for you to look for it alone......" The boy was a little regretful.

She declined his kindness, smiled and shook her head slightly.

The boy had no choice but to walk away, and after seven or eight steps, he looked back at her several times, but when she looked over, he instantly turned his head back to the front.

Chen smiled lightly, whether he was out of kindness or something else, if she was before, she would never have this kind of treatment. Not to mention that she couldn't find the way to sit in a daze, even if she took the initiative to ask for help, I am afraid that few people would come forward to help her.

There is only one person.

Only one person had ever reached out to her.

Many years ago, when she was the black and ugly "shrimp girl", almost every day someone would release malice towards her, for no reason, as if it was a natural thing, they laughed at her and teased her.

It was in front of this commissary that she stood at the end of the queue, quietly waiting for her order.

In front of them are two boys of the same level who are joking and joking, you and I are choking each other happily, it has nothing to do with her, but somehow, as she talked, she suddenly pulled on her.

"Look who's behind you...... See! The boy in front of him found her, patted the latter boy on the shoulder, teased and choked, "With your taste, she is probably your ideal type, right?" ”

The boy who was photographed looked back and saw Chen Qing standing behind him, his expression immediately changed, his face was a little distorted, and he turned around and fought with him angrily: "Your ideal type is that kind of!" I'll fuck your uncle! ”

"Hahaha, how suitable she is for you......"

"It's suitable for your uncle, are you blind......"

Chen Qing was embarrassed and at a loss, and his already dark complexion rose a layer of red, adding a bit of rusticness.

The two boys were still arguing, and they didn't care about her at all, and the more they talked, the more ugly they became.

Just as she was about to run away, someone spoke.

"Are you finished?"

Standing in front of the two was He Junyan.

With a faint look, he had already begun to have a fierce aura, and he said sarcastically unhappily: "Have you quarreled enough?" Is this your home or the wet market? ”

When the two boys saw that it was He Junyan, they immediately turned pale with fright, and stammered: "Yes, I'm sorry......"

"What do you want to tell me?" He frowned and glanced at Chen Qing, "It's really long enough to make fun of girls, and it's not ashamed." ”

At that time, Chen Qingzheng was trying to hold back his tears, and his gaze on He Junyan moved away in an instant, but the reddish circles under his eyes couldn't be hidden.

She didn't expect He Junyan to stand up for her.

In the same school for three years, He Junyan's name often appears in the mouths of others, I heard that his family conditions are very good, although it has not been confirmed exactly, but he has always been a very preferential treatment in school, which can be regarded as a side confirmation. In addition to his short temper and bad personality, he excels in learning, and has several specialties, as long as he is not too lazy to move, he can win awards every time he participates in the competition, and he has countless honors, and he is completely called "the pride of the sky".

It's not that no one has ever troubled him, but he has never had any trouble, so many years have passed, and he is still good and irritable, and those who are looking for provocation have all ended up in disgrace.

Such a person, there are not a few boys in the same level who are afraid of him and are afraid of him, and the two who make fun of Chen Qing are two of them.

He spoke, how dare the two of them not listen, their faces were blue and white, and they apologized to Chen lightly for more than a dozen words. In the end, they didn't buy anything, they just got out of the queue and quickly ran away.

The person in the middle ran away, and there was no interval, and in front of Chen Qing was He Junyan.

After he finished his "idle business", he turned back and didn't say much, while Chen Qing kept his distance from him, and his eyes involuntarily stared at the back of his head.

He was very tall, she needed to look up to see the back of his head, his school uniform was very lazy, but he looked better than the others, the sneakers on his feet were very clean, the same as his people, there was a sign on the side of the shoe, she didn't know what brand it was, she only remembered seeing it in the mall, it was very expensive, she didn't even dare to enter the store.

The afternoon sun was sprinkled like a veil, and the air was dusty and mixed with a faint smell of grass.

At that time, on the day when the weather was very good, she remembered He Junyan.

On the way back to the classroom, when she passed by the school's top 100 list, she stopped for the first time to take a closer look at the third place name.

Jun Yan.

A word is like a thousand pounds, which is very suitable for him.

In that day's diary, Chen Qing did not write a full page for the first time.

She wrote only three words of his name.

…

As the number of students came and went, there was not much time left before the evening self-study began, so Chen Qing returned to his senses from his memories, patted the hem of his clothes, and returned along the way he came.

Before leaving, she turned around outside the school gate to take one last look.

――I hope that in the future, there will be fewer and fewer sentimental and sad memories, and the past can pass away like yesterday's river, and there will be no regrets left for her to look back.

Ye Hang hadn't seen He Junyan for several days, and finally had to ask him out, but found that he had a tense face the whole time, as if someone owed him tens of millions.

He felt strange, he happened to be bored in the passenger seat, so he looked at He Junyan, who was driving, every few seconds.

"What the hell are you looking at? Blooming on my face?! He Junyan stared at the car ahead and said unhappily.

"You still have flowers on your face? It's ugly and can scare the head bear to death......" Ye Hang couldn't help but complain, "Hey, I said, do you have an opinion about me?" I don't have a good face when I see me. ”

"Thinking too much." He Junyan snorted coldly, not wanting to dwell on this topic, and frowned, "Where are you going?" ”

The man asked him out, but he didn't even have a destination, and the two of them spent most of the night on the road.

Ye Hang said: "Whatever you want, except for nightclubs or something, it's fine." ”

“…… Have you changed sex? ”

"Oh." Ye Hang sighed, "I'm all forced!" Recently, a girl chased me, like crazy, she followed me wherever I went, especially in a place like a nightclub, I went for less than half an hour, she was ready to appear! I suspect she's buried her eyeliner everywhere......"

Hearing that he was full of annoyance, He Junyan raised his eyebrows and said: "Isn't it just being chased, no one is afraid of a girl, what are you afraid of?" ”

"You don't know that I'm the most annoying person! If she just clicked in front of me, and said that she was going to chase me, maybe I would really try to get along with her, but she drilled in front of me all day, but she didn't even dare to say a decent word......

Ye Hang sighed again: "If you have something, you can talk about it, if you want to fight, if you like it, you can chase it, I just want to see someone like this, and live a simple and clear life, isn't it?" ”

He Junyan was silent, and somehow suddenly thought of Chen Qing.

According to what Ye Hang said, Chen Qing will probably be very much in line with him? Her pursuit alone can pry half of his heart, and if they get along, they ......

With a frown, He Junyan stopped this boring thought for a moment.

Ye Hang was still talking next to him, he was impatient, and stepped on the accelerator to accelerate suddenly, so frightened that Ye Hang instantly swallowed the sound back into his stomach.
