Chapter 23 Finalists

A long time ago, I was still alone, running and looking at each other, talking or laughing alone. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The world is so complicated and chaotic that it is difficult to get around.

Then the last stretch of the season slowed it down. It's a real slowdown, slow enough to delay a winter snowfall.

Maybe that's all you were at that time, so that you just knew each other like that.

Time has passed, and we are not feverish with each other, and we have been together for two autumn colds.

It was the day before yesterday, you ...... Appearances are in harmony, my best friend number eight.

For whom, for whom is he sleepless, for whom he thinks about it all night, and tosses and turns all night.

That day, you pointed to the incandescent light tube in the classroom and said vigorously, I must marry her, definitely! The dazzling light accompanied me with words and expressions made me feel respectful and admired from the bottom of my heart.

……

This is the twenty-first manuscript written by Yu Bai that belongs to "The Scarlet Years", which records the process of getting acquainted with No. 8 from recognition to change.

In fact, the style of the little four almost does not need to be pondered and studied, as if a person with poor learning can reach that point without imitation, although it is a bit of a joke to say this, but in fact, it is almost the meaning.

This collection of essays is expected to be about 190,000 words, in order to complete this goal, Yu Bai can only struggle, plus this just-written "Three Heavy Buildings No. 8", and then the back of Mr. Xu and Yao Mei will be completed even if it is completed, and then you can fully prepare for the new concept essay.

Maybe, this is the first thing Yu Bai has done in two lifetimes to prepare for a rainy day, after all, it is still a little difficult for him to save the manuscript.

Today is May 19th, a week after the last time Yu Bai became a hero.

This week, Yu Bai wrote about 12 more manuscripts, all of which were youthful romances, and this time Yu Bai was not limited to only sending them to the two magazines last time, but regardless of the ranking and sales, he directly lined up the method of fishing and casting nets.

Because before the interview that day, Yu Bai saw that Zhao Xueman had something to say, as for what it was, Yu Bai also thought of some, and in terms of time, it should be "Proverbs" and "Thoughts", two magazines in the nature of excerpts, replied.

Both articles were rejected! The result was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.

For this answer, Yu Bai smiled at the time and gladly accepted it. To be reasonable, Yu Bai didn't do much research on this kind of magazine in his previous life, and he didn't even read it carefully, that is, he knew a rough idea, and he was essentially going for other people's high manuscript fees.

Like this, he just wanted to write with some experience and conjecture in his previous life, and even Yu Bai himself didn't have much hope.

Although he had a strong ability to accept it, Zhao Xueman's cautious expression and worried eyes at that time were obviously worried that Yu Bai would be disappointed when he heard the result, and even be hit to the ground.

Because of such thoughts, Zhao Xueman thought about how to comfort him, but this was not the case, Yu Bai's performance was not the slightest frustration, but laughed with Zhao Xueman as if nothing had happened.

At that time, Yu Bai was embarrassed to say, after all, he was a person who came out after a lot of tempering in his previous life, and this blow was really nothing.

is not worth bragging about in Yu Bai's opinion, but Zhao Xueman looked at him differently.

Where there is bad news, there is naturally good news.

In the past few days, the 12 manuscripts have been replied to one after another, and the approval rate is as high as 90%, which means that almost 10 of them have been accepted.

Of course, for Yu Bai, who is low-key and unassuming, this result is only known to a few of them, and even Yu Bai didn't even tell his mother, as for the reason, it was probably because he wanted to send her a surprise.

It's just that everything has its own rules, and this sentence is quite rigorous.

May 19th, there are only 18 days left before the college entrance examination, and it is also the last day of the announcement of the preliminary results of the National New Concept Essay Competition. According to the regulations, if the results are not announced in the first two days, then it will definitely come out before ten o'clock today at the latest, in addition to the official website will be announced on the list of candidates, and everyone who is selected will receive an email reply or a letter reply.

Maybe at this moment, there are many people across the country who are waiting for this result like Yu Bai, but in this class, except for Yu Bai, who looks anxious, everyone is looking down and reviewing as usual.

It's as if this competition is just a title for them, and a dispensable thing that doesn't have much impact.

I don't know how many times I looked up at the closed front door of the classroom, because he was waiting, waiting for Zhao Xueman to go home and read the email reply.

Although he said before class today that he didn't have to waste time going back, he just watched it after school, but Zhao Xueman still stubbornly wanted to go back, because only in this way could he get the results as soon as possible.

At that moment, it seemed that she was more nervous and important than Yu Bai who participated in the competition.

Looking at the time again, it was already ten thirty-five in the morning, and even Yu Bai himself didn't feel that he was nervous, the pen in his hand kept turning in circles between his fingers, snapped, fell on the table, and picked it up and continued to spin without care, repeating it as before.

Until Yang Zhong, who was sitting on the podium, couldn't help it, strolled over, and knocked on the table.

"Self-study class, everyone is reviewing, don't make a loud ...... at every turn"

However, Yu Bai didn't seem to hear it, and his eyes seemed to see nothing except the door, as if he couldn't hear anything.

"Tsk, what's the matter with you!"

At this time, Yang raised his voice, and in the self-study class at this time, except for the rustle of the tip of the pen, it was the sound of the pages turning, so this reprimand alarmed most of the people in the class, and they all looked back at this side.

Yu Bai also came back to his senses, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the head teacher, and the pen in his hand fell down again.

Snap, short and crisp!

This made Dizhong Yang's eyebrows rise, and he reached out and grabbed his arm and prepared to go out, thinking about educating him well.

But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the corridor outside the classroom, and Yu Bai's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, because he could feel that the owner of the footsteps was trying his best to suppress the anxiety and urgency in his heart.

Yu Baiwu stopped and turned his head to stare at the door, as if nothing was important at this moment, as if at this moment, he just wanted to see the person he cared about the most to bring the most important answer.

"Bang!"

The classroom door was pushed open forcefully, and the eyes that were originally looking at Yu Bai's side subconsciously looked at the door collectively.

What appeared in front of the class at this moment was Zhao Xueman, who was out of breath and her cheeks were flushed from running violently, with a few strands of hair scattered on her forehead, crossing her waist and panting heavily, but when her eyes fell on Yu Bai, she also found that the other party was also looking at herself with bated breath.

At this point, Zhao Xue didn't care about his steady breath and didn't even notice that it was not the end of class, so he smiled brightly and shouted at Yu Bai loudly.

"It's over...... It's really over! Yu Bai ...... You've passed the ...... game" may have shouted out the result, the task was finally completed, and the sense of urgency in the body suddenly disappeared, so I felt a pair of puzzled eyes one after another.

Then, as if to make things clear, he shouted again.

"You passed the preliminary round of the New Concept Essay Competition, and you can go to Shanghai City to participate in the finals in ten days!"

Seriously, Zhao Xueman at this moment has no femininity at all, not even a little like a girl, whether it is panting with her waist crossed, or yelling regardless of her image, how do you look at it.

But Zhao Xueman, who has such an image of a gentleman, makes Yu Bai fascinated, because she is doing this for herself. This reason alone can eliminate all the previous shortcomings.

Zhao Xueman's shouting voice was very loud, which made people hear it clearly, but no matter who heard it, they had a dreamlike illusion, as if they were asking themselves and doubting them.

"What did I just hear?"

"What I just heard is true?"

Self-questions like these filled the hearts of all students.

Yu Bai smiled in return and stared at Zhao Xue for a long time until she couldn't bear it anymore before turning her head. After that, Yu Bai couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart anymore, and this excitement was not only manifested psychologically, but also behaviorally.

I saw him grab Yang in the ground with his backhand, like a child who has won a certificate, shouting at his family.

"The preliminary round has passed, and I am going to Shanghai City to participate in the finals......"

Then, under everyone's attention, Yu Bai excitedly reached out and hugged Yang in the ground.

The scene is frozen at this moment.

Many years later, looking back, Yu Bai still smiled like a self-deprecating smile, because the head teacher was really too heavy at that time, and he didn't just want to hug him, but wanted to hug him.

After a brief period of doubt and suspicion, someone finally reacted.

The first to make a move was No. 8, who jumped up from his seat and pointed his finger at Yu Bai, who was hugging the head teacher, laughing and shouting.

"I'm cao, Lao Tzu knows, you must do it!"

Then Xu Kai also got up and shouted at Yu Bai, "Niu B!"

Wang Yao didn't shout, but it was even more excessive, and he threw the stack of rolls in front of him into the sky!

At this point, everyone seemed to be an afterthought and congratulated one after another, even the head teacher Di Zhongyang didn't care about the classroom discipline that was out of control because of this news, but kept boasting at Yu Bai.

"Okay, good, Yu Bai, you're out of breath!"

……

The news that Yu Bai participated in the National New Concept Essay Contest and passed the preliminary round, and went to Shanghai City to participate in the finals ten days later was like a bombshell, thrown into the crowd of the second class of the third year of high school, the entire campus of No. 1 Middle School, and the entire county seat of Qiaoping.

He didn't know how other people would react when they got the news, but for him, the news was not the end, but the official start of a path that belonged to him alone.

Because in this life, no one can repeat it, and no one can stop it, Yu Bai is convinced that he will definitely live a more wonderful life in this life. Sometimes some people have to live before they are written into a book, and now Yu Bai is doing it.
