Chapter 1: Thank You

The school organized an extracurricular camp.

One night in May, Manchen walked alone on a quiet and gloomy path, and the quiet moonlight sprinkled the soft light throughout the night sky.

In the cold wind, the green leaves scattered scattered from the tall trees fell softly on the cold ground, and from time to time there was a mournful and strange "rustle" sound.

Manchen was wary of the movements around him, and his heart was apprehensive.

Manchen came to the end of the path, and the sparkling lake in front of him seemed to be draped in a flawless wedding dress, adding a lot of beauty.

Manchen took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and smiled at the microwave undulating lake in front of him.

Finally, Manchen is ready to rest by the lake.

At this time, a clean and slender back appeared out of sight in the dusty sight.

Manchen looked at it and saw that he was standing lonely by the lake, blocking Manchen's vision, making people hallucinate in a trance. A pair of eyes as deep as water are like flowing spring water under the high mountain, leaving no trace of dust, his short black and silky hair blocks his pair of thick sword eyebrows, his face is as clear as a carving, his angular face is handsome and abnormal, the bridge of his nose is high, his lips are beautiful, he is wearing a blue windbreaker, and in the moonlight, it seems to be an antiquity that has been silent for many years, all of which are showing nobility and elegance.

Suddenly, a person appeared, and Manchen's heartbeat instantly accelerated, as if a beating elf lived in his heart.

Manchen's pair of white and slender jade hands rested nervously on his round chest, and a pair of big watery eyes trembled in panic.

A cool breeze blew, he turned around calmly, and looked at the overwhelmed Manchen with an expressionless face, the eyes of the two met in a complicated way, and time seemed to stand still.

"It turned out to be Jiang Mingfeng, it scared me to death." Manchen took a deep breath and sighed.

"It's so late, why haven't you gone back yet, I'll check the number of people in a while." Jiang Mingfeng glanced at Man Chen, his face expressionless.

Jiang Mingfeng turned around and continued to look at the sparkling lake in front of him.

"It's a rare school camp, didn't you go back too?" Manchen replied with a smile.

Jiang Mingfeng frowned slightly, lowered his head slightly, and closed his eyes tightly.

The cool breeze blows and the moonlight shines. Manchen stared at the slender and lonely back in front of him in a daze, and didn't know what to say.

Following the direction of Jiang Mingfeng's gaze, Manchen looked at the sparkling lake, a cold wind hit, blowing through the coolness and stimulating the skin of the two, and Manchen's petite body shivered.

Jiang Mingfeng's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and then he said softly: "Go back." ”

As the two of them walked along the quiet, rugged path, the dark clouds began to dye the moon with their long tails, and gradually, the night sky, which had been filled with soft moonlight, was shrouded in a heavy and deep night.

"It's getting darker, so I'm sorry I brought my phone." Manchen smiled bitterly.

Jiang Mingfeng never spoke, just lowered his head slightly.

The bright moon seemed to have thrown itself into the arms of its mother, and it never left the dark clouds, and a cool breeze blew in the sky, and the temperature around it was lower.

The delicate little hands of the dust wrapped around his weak body, his white teeth kept shivering, and his heart was extremely anxious and disappointed. On the one hand, the weather was too cold, and on the other hand, Jiang Mingfeng didn't take any action against himself, this situation shouldn't be...

Shouldn't he be a gentleman?

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, the sky was overwhelmed by dark clouds, and gradually, a light rain began to fall in the sky, and finally it became heavier and heavier.

"It seems that I can't go back, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and there is a downhill road in front, and it will be very dangerous to go back in this weather, and the mobile phone has no signal." Manchen said worriedly.

Jiang Mingfeng also felt that the weather was a little wrong, and said in a low voice: "Well, let's find a place to hide from the rain first." ”。

Jiang Mingfeng seemed to be very familiar with the surrounding environment, and Manchen cautiously followed Jiang Mingfeng's footsteps. Before the pouring rain came, the two found a log cabin that no one lived in.

The two walked in and found that the environment inside the wooden house was a mess, with many large and small pieces of wood piled up in most of the open space.

There was nothing but wood fragments and twigs.

"Mr. Manchen, lend me my phone." Jiang Mingfeng said softly.

"Well, take it, by the way, the phone is running out of battery, you can use it quickly." Manchen replied with a smile.

Jiang Mingfeng took the dusty mobile phone, and taking advantage of the light illuminated by the screen, the two walked to the depths of the room.

Manchen nervously followed in, and after a deep look, Manchen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was surprised: "There is empty space here." ”

Nights in the mountains are generally cold, especially on rainy days, when temperatures can drop cold.

So, if you want to survive this long, cold night, you have to have fire

There was enough space to accommodate the fire, Jiang Mingfeng seemed to be very satisfied, and finally Jiang Mingfeng skillfully picked up the cracked wooden branches around him and stacked them in the open space.

(without a lighter) Jiang Mingfeng kept rubbing the branches, trying to use "drilling wood to make fire".

Manchen looked at him nervously, and his heartbeat unconsciously accelerated a lot. And during this period, Manchen didn't say a word, for fear of disrupting his rhythm and making all his efforts go to waste.

After half an hour of "taking" the fire, it was finally in the anxious waiting of the two of them that the red flames gradually appeared on the wooden branches that were taken from the fire, accompanied by a wisp of white smoke.

At this time, Manchen was standing by the door of the wooden house, calmly looking outside, and plucked the strands of hair tied in his hair.

And at this moment, the fire also rose.

"It's so annoying, it's getting heavier and heavier." The flames suddenly ignited, and Man Chen said softly.

"You're cold, come here." Jiang Mingfeng said softly.

The two of them sat on the cold, dusty ground. Manchen looked gratefully at the lit bonfire, his fair skin filled with warmth.

Manchen lowered his head and said shyly: "I really admire you, you actually lit a fire." ”

Jiang Mingfeng closed his eyes and responded calmly: "I used to go camping with my father, so naturally I learned this. ”

Jiang Mingfeng looked up at Manchen, but he didn't expect Jiang Mingfeng's eyes to open wider and wider, and two blushes inexplicably appeared on Jiang Mingfeng's white and smooth cheeks.

At this time, because Manchen was sitting on the ground, and he was wearing a long skirt that was not too tight, and what was even worse was that Manchen was because he was drenched in the rain, and the pink chest worn by Manchen was illuminated by the red fireworks, Jiang Mingfeng vaguely saw the outline of his chest, and the front end of Manchen's chest was naturally spring.

Jiang Mingfeng looked at the "mysterious" picture on Manchen's chest in a daze, and was speechless in shock.

Manchen stared at his stupid expression in a daze, and couldn't help but lower his head, and in less than a second, the two of them turned their faces away.

"Hate, you !!" Man Chen panicked and covered his chest with his hands, and two reddens like ripe apples appeared on the fair-skinned melon seeds' face.

The flush on Jiang Mingfeng's handsome face never faded.

Time passed minute by minute, and the embarrassing and shy scene just now made Manchen's heart more and more confused, and finally Manchen was at a loss.

And at this moment, Jiang Mingfeng got up calmly and slowly came to Man Chen.

Jiang Mingfeng in Manchen's watery eyes was looking at her calmly, Jiang Mingfeng smiled, this was the first time he smiled at Manchen, like a warm sun in winter, full of warmth.

The flush on the faces of the two of them became redder and redder, especially Manchen, and water almost dripped from their shy cheeks.

……

The next morning, the sky was silent, the night was about to disappear, the dawn of the morning slowly woke up the sleeping creatures, the warm soft wind blew away the coolness of last night, and the smell of nature wafted everywhere in the woods.

Due to last night's downpour, the road down the mountain was full of bumps, and the two found large puddles from time to time, as well as dangerous messy branches.

Jiang Mingfeng and Manchen walked cautiously on the path down the mountain, and neither of them spoke.

At this time, Manchen was wearing a blue windbreaker, while Jiang Mingfeng was wearing a short shirt.

After a two-hour trek, the two finally arrived at the foot of the mountain where they were encamped, (the teachers learned that the two were missing, and anxiously searched for them all night) The teachers' eyes widened, and there were many students, their faces with extremely ugly and shocked expressions.

After returning to school, the two of them spent the night alone caused a stir at school, and many versions were circulated, but it boiled down to one thing, the relationship between the two was very impure, and something must have happened that night.

The school was afraid that something would happen to the students, so it also held a parent-teacher meeting and a student conference, the content of which was nothing more than that the students should maintain a pure relationship with each other, what should not happen, and what it was.

After that time, Manchen was no longer like the good student who was respected by her classmates before, and the gossip every day pushed her into the abyss of pain, and she would be looked down upon by the students wherever she went.

And Jiang Mingfeng is still full of popularity in the school and is deeply loved by female classmates, it seems that this kind of thing happened to him, which does not affect his status in the hearts of female classmates at all, and there are still many female classmates who are attentive to him, but they are still rejected by them.

It was Friday, the third day after the incident.

After school, Manchen lay on the green grass, and the warm sun caressed Manchen's cheeks and brushed every piece of skin.

The gossip in the past few days has hit her hard, she has never suffered such a big humiliation in her life, the more Manchen thinks about it, the more sad she becomes, her grades plummet, she wants to explain, but not many people are willing to believe her.

Manchen looked at the sky in disappointment, and muttered to himself: "Fate, is it just to live in their gossip?" ”

Suddenly, a white paper airplane quickly slashed across Dust's eyes, and finally Dusty reached out to catch it.

"It turned out to be a paper airplane." Manchen flattered and muttered.

Manchen sighed, then looked around, a lonely and slender figure stood behind her, his eyes as calm as water were looking at Manchen.

Manchen said softly in embarrassment: "It turned out to be you." ”

"May I sit next to you?"

"Well, you can sit down."

The two sat in a row, very close to each other, as if they were very close together. The two of them lowered their heads, neither of them spoke, the soft wind blew their silky hair, but the flowing air was full of suffocation.

This is the first official meeting between the two since that incident!

Jiang Mingfeng broke the embarrassment of the atmosphere for the first time, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry!" Jiang Mingfeng's tone was full of guilt.

Manchen was shocked, but two blushes appeared on his face unconsciously. Manchen lowered his head and replied softly, "What is there to apologize for." ”

"Actually, I don't care, but I'm worried about you, I'm sorry, letting you fall into gossip must have brought a lot of trouble to your life and study."

"What's that?! I'm not afraid of the gossip, it's just, it's just a little tired. ”

"Well, actually, I heard what you just said."

"Which word?"

"Fate, is it just to live in their gossip? Right? Isn't that the phrase? ”

Manchen lowered his head and smiled slightly wryly, not knowing what to reply

Jiang Mingfeng sighed, and his eyes, which were originally as calm as water, suddenly changed, full of warmth, as if it was a warm sun in winter.

Jiang Mingfeng smiled and said: "Gossip is always gossip, and there will always be a day when the clouds will dissipate." ”

Manchen's eyes widened in an instant, and he said softly: "Well, yes, but I'm afraid, I'm afraid I won't survive that time." ”

"Isn't there still a year left before the college entrance examination! It's okay, it's over quickly, if there is any difficulty to me, I'll try my best to help you solve it, and when you're in a bad mood, we can talk like we did today. Jiang Mingfeng responded with a smile.

Manchen's heart doesn't know how warm it is, this feeling seems to be that she fell to the bottom of the abyss before, and met someone who gave her hope and brought her out of the abyss of pain. It was as if in a dark corner, a ray of dawn suddenly appeared, guiding her out of the darkness.

"Thank you." Manchen's heart seemed to be touched by something, and two lines of hot tears gently slipped down Manchen's cheeks from the corners of his eyes. Manchen's eyes closed in pain, and his pale lips began to whimper.

Manchen tried to cover his pain with his hands, but he couldn't resist it anymore, and the sobs from time to time turned into continuous low crying, and finally Manchen's weak body leaned on Jiang Mingfeng's shoulder.

At this moment, Manchen felt warm in his heart, and the words "thank you" kept calling in Manchen's heart.
