Xu Qing heard the movement of knocking on the window, and couldn't help but look sideways, and the sight was a beautiful and eye-catching girl.

She knows her, her name is Xia Bai, she is the top student in the real yàn class, and she is also the famous school flower of S Middle School.

Xia Bai frowned when she saw Xu Qing looking at her, and pointed to April who was sleeping on her stomach next to her, Xu Qing understood, reached out and gently pushed April's arm.

"April, wake up, someone is looking for you."

After many days of busyness, April finally couldn't support it, and I couldn't help but take advantage of the recess to catch up on some sleep. Sensing Xu Qing's movements, she opened her eyes groggily and blinked her eyelids very slowly.

"Xia Bai is looking for you." In response to April's misty gaze, Xu Qing quickly glanced at Xia Bai in the window, and then said to April.

This time, April was completely awake, sitting up straight and looking at Xia Bai.

I haven't seen her for more than a month, Xia Bai seems to be a little better-looking, her eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and her smile is sweet, like a little fairy bathed in the sun. I can't say what has changed in April, but I always feel that Xia Bai is a little different from before.

She walked through the back door of the classroom to Xia Bai, and before she could stand still, Xia Bai reached out and held her arm very enthusiastically.

"April, this Saturday is my birthday, can you come to my birthday party?"

Originally, I planned to do a small job this weekend in April, but when I heard Xia Bai say this, I suddenly hesitated.

Xia Bai saw April's embarrassment, and couldn't help but feel a little lost, and his voice lowered first, "What's the matter, did you have something to do that day?" ”

"Nope." April shook her head.

Xia Bai raised a bright smile again, "Then it's decided, this Saturday afternoon, meet at the school gate, and I will come to pick you up then." ”

"Hmm." April's lips pursed.

Time walked unhurriedly, and soon it was Saturday.

I told my grandmother about going to my classmate's birthday party, and my grandmother told her to pay attention to safety on the road, April smiled and nodded, and then waved goodbye to the old man.

She was still wearing the dark blue school uniform that had not changed for thousands of years, and her slightly long bangs were on her eyelids, covering most of her face.

Walking alone on the way to school, April always felt that he couldn't go empty-handed, but now his life is more difficult than before, so he is a little hesitant to spend money.

Passing by a boutique, she stopped to gaze through the window and saw all sorts of fine ornaments hanging inside.

She couldn't help but imagine how beautiful Xia Bai would be if she wore it.

But it's just imagination.

The family's predicament no longer allowed her to come up with unnecessary expenses, and she even began to worry about the family's food expenses.

When I arrived at the school gate, it was still early, and April waited against the fence for a while.

At that time, the weather was cloudy, the sun was intermittent, and the coolness of late autumn hit people, which made people shiver.

I knew I should have arrived late.

April stomped his feet in place, and his gaze casually landed on a black sedan parked not far away.

She always felt that this car was a little familiar, and she couldn't help but look at it twice.

Just then, a teenager passed by her. He was dressed very formally today, with a suit and tie, and his hair was neatly combed, looking like a prince from a distance.

Of course, he was indeed a prince.

This place in April is a bit hidden, with leaves in front of you, and you can't notice it if you don't look closely.

She just stared at his back in a daze until the other man stopped in front of the black car. April's eyes moved to that side, only to see the car door opened, and a man in a black suit stepped forward.

This time, April finally saw the man's face clearly.

The man had an angular face with faint lines carved into the corners of his eyes, highlighting his age and experience. At this time, he only stood on one side, and his gestures had a powerful aura, which diluted his excellent facial features.

"Qingyan, why don't you go home?"

The man's eyes were sharp, but there was not the slightest anger in his voice, and he could even say it with a smile.

The young man who was questioned just stared at his feet quietly, and said in a light tone, without ups and downs, "Recently, my schoolwork has been relatively tight, and my vacation time is used to review my homework." ”

"Really?" The man looked at Gu Qingyan meaninglessly, and at the end, he stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to put it on the young man's shoulder.

Gu Qingyan's eyes flashed, and his shoulders dodged slightly, avoiding the other party's physical contact.

The man's arm paused in the air for a few seconds, and then withdrew his arm curtly, "Don't push yourself so hard, I believe that with your ability, you will definitely be able to get into the top school." ”

The two seemed to be a little awkward to get along with each other, and April guessed that the other party should be Gu Qingyan's adoptive father.

Just as she was thinking wildly, the young man's voice rang out again.

This time, his voice was clear and crisp: "I want to study abroad after graduation." ”

April was slightly stunned when he heard this, and the man was also stunned for a moment, and the next moment, his face suddenly changed, and there seemed to be a surge of hidden anger in his black pupils.

He took a deep breath and restrained his anger, "Qingyan, there are first-class schools in China, why do you have to go abroad?" I have only one son, you, and my future business will be handed over to you to inherit. ”

Who knows, Gu Qingyan listened, suddenly raised his face, looked at the man with heavy eyes, and after a while, he hooked the corners of his mouth, as if smiling, "You don't know why I want to go abroad?" ”

When he smiled, his original ice-like face suddenly became a little bewitching, and there was an indescribable weirdness in his eyes.

I don't know why, although he was smiling, April could feel the deep resistance and sadness in the young man's eyes.

The man was not stimulated by the young man's words, he even leaned over slightly and said something close to Gu Qingyan's ear.

April didn't hear a word clearly, and could only see the boy's hands on his sides clenched hard, and his knuckles were faintly white.

She stepped forward and stepped out of the small space.

The rustling of leaves disturbed the two of them, and the man jerked his head up, his gaze shooting precisely in April's direction.

April was stared at by that gaze, only to feel that her heart was grabbed by an invisible hand, and she froze in place on the spot. She opened her mouth, her gaze slowly turned to Gu Qingyan, who was silent, and squeezed out an ugly smile at him: "Hey, what a coincidence, I was able to see you here." ”

The boy didn't react to her greeting, just glanced at her indifferently. I don't know if it's her delusion, but she feels that the boy seems to be relieved, and his body is not as tense as before.

Instead, the man looked her up and down for a moment with deep eyes, his gaze paused for a few seconds on her dark blue school uniform.

At the end, he reined in the compelling momentum around him, and smiled gently at April, "You are Qingyan's classmate." ”

"Yes." April is not a person who is good at words, but at this moment, her words suddenly became more, "You are Gu Qingyan's father, right?" I don't understand some homework questions, so I want to ask him for advice, I don't know if it will ...... Excuse me. ”

April didn't know what her expression was now, she forced herself to pretend that she had no city, and she told lies without blinking.

Before the words fell, April sensitively noticed a deep gaze shooting from the side, which was cast by Gu Qingyan.

April looked back at the past very calmly, then pulled the corners of her mouth, revealing the brightest smile so far, "Classmate Gu, I don't know if you will find it troublesome." ”

She has always smiled very lightly, and now she pretends to smile mischievously, and her eyes seem to be flowing with a sparkling galaxy, full of aura. Even if she wore thick glasses, she couldn't stop the bright light in her eyes.

At that moment, facing such an April, Gu Qingyan lost his mind for a moment.

Immediately, he quickly came back to his senses and replied calmly: "Why do you feel troublesome, classmates should help each other." ”

Shen Yanjin smiled at the corner of his mouth, and quietly took the expressions of the two into his eyes, and at the end, he nodded towards April: "In this case, you two have a good chat, I'll go back first." ”

The man seemed to have a mask on his face, and his smile was not as good as his eyes, and when he opened the car door, he paused and turned his head sideways to look at Gu Qingyan.

The light and shadow left a dark shadow in his eyes, and April couldn't distinguish the look in his eyes, and only heard his words with unknown meaning in his ears: "Qingyan, you have grown up, you should know what to do and what not to do." ”

After speaking, he bowed down and sat directly in the car, and soon, the black car drove into the distance, and there was no trace in the blink of an eye.

April blinked his eyes and looked at Gu Qingyan, who was standing in place, only to see that he had his head down, and his long eyelashes covered his eyes.

The scene suddenly cooled down, as if the heat just now was just a dream.

At this moment, the pendulum of the pendulum at the top of the school building suddenly made a dull sound, and April looked up and found that it was already twelve o'clock.

There is still an hour before Xia Bai's appointed time.

"Thank you just now."

Hearing the young man's slightly cold voice, April was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at his feet, "No thanks." ”

She didn't know why she had just come forward, she just felt that there was a sense of danger in that man, and this feeling made her feel unhappy.

It seems that the relationship has been adjusted, Gu Qingyan raised his head and faced April squarely for the first time.

He has always been too lazy to pay attention to people who don't care, but I have to say that although April doesn't have any sense of zài, it still leaves a deep impression in his heart. Because in a sense, he is the same kind of person as April, who can only live in the dark, and cannot reach the sunlight with his hands.

However, at a moment like today, the image of April suddenly materialized in his eyes.

She wasn't good-looking, but she had very special eyes.

It's really strange, it's obviously a gloomy and wooden character, but those eyes are extremely clear, like the bright moonlight, clear and clear.

This was the first time he had spent so much time observing a person, Gu Qingyan smiled in his heart and shook his head, "Why are you here?" ”

"Oh." April tugged at the hem of her clothes uncomfortably, "Today is Xia Bai's birthday, and she invited me to her birthday party. ”

"So coincidentally?" Gu Qingyan's indifference seemed to have faded a little, and he raised his eyebrows at April, seeing April's puzzled face, he pulled the corners of his mouth to reveal a shallow smile, "I also want to attend Xia Bai's birthday party." ”

At the mention of Xia Bai, the indifference on the young man's body completely faded, and a gentle and affectionate smile was condensed between Qingjun's eyebrows and eyes.

It's completely different from the temperament that was going toe-for-tat with the man just now.

April is clear, no wonder he is dressed so formally, it turns out that he is going to attend Xia Bai's birthday party.

She didn't feel unhappy when she vaguely guessed something in her heart, on the contrary, a trace of joy slowly appeared in her heart.

If Xia Bai and Gu Qingyan are together, they can't be more compatible.

At this time, students in twos and threes walked towards them, all of them were people they didn't know in April, someone recognized Gu Qingyan and greeted him: "Gu Qingyan, we were still thinking about where you went just now, and we were already waiting at the school gate." ”

"Haha, isn't it because it's Xia Bai, so I can't wait."

The boy didn't give an explanation for their jokes, just smiled faintly.

April noticed that these students were all dressed in decent clothes, and guessed that they should also be attending Xia Bai's birthday party, but she herself, wearing a school uniform, looked particularly out of place.

Everyone chatted briskly, no one answered April, and April didn't feel embarrassed.

Maybe it was because of the siege just now that Gu Qingyan paid more attention to her, and when she saw her standing alone sullenly, she couldn't help but take a few steps closer to her, and found a random topic and said, "When did you get the glasses?" ”

As far back as I can remember, she doesn't seem to wear glasses.

April didn't expect Gu Qingyan to take the initiative to talk to her in front of so many people, and when she saw that everyone was looking at them, she couldn't help but feel a little cramped, "Oh, it's been a while." ”

She wasn't used to so many people looking at her.

The boy noticed that she was uncomfortable, and wanted to talk a little more, but after thinking about it, he forgot it.

Just then, a sedan slowly approached, followed by a bus. When the car stopped at the school gate, a girl in a princess dress stepped out of the car.

"Excuse me, have you been waiting for a long time?"

The girl's voice is sweet, and her face is painted with light makeup, which makes her skin better than snow and her facial features are exquisite.

"I didn't have to wait long, Xia Bai, happy birthday."

"Xia Bai, you are so beautiful today."

"Gu Qingyan, why are you still stunned, why don't you hurry up and hold Xia Bai's hand."

There were all kinds of blessings from the crowd, I don't know who pushed Gu Qingyan, he staggered forward a few steps without noticing for a while, and just stopped in front of Xia Bai.

Xia Bai looked up at him, and a somewhat shy smile appeared on his fair little face, "Hey, Gu Qingyan, today is my birthday, aren't you going to say something?" ”

The young man was silent for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Xia Bai, happy birthday." ”

It's just four short words, but like a clear stream, it pours into the depths of my heart.

Xia Bai's face turned red, then he hurriedly looked away at everyone, and said generously to them: "Let's get in the car first." ”

Everyone listened, lined up in turn and got into the car, and when it was April's turn, she subconsciously glanced at Xia Bai, and just saw Xia Bai and Gu Qingyan walking side by side towards the car on the side.

She quickly withdrew her gaze and buried herself in the car.
