23. Midterm exams are over
When the leaves turn yellow and gradually fall down, a new round of midterm exams begins. Almost every classroom in No. 1 Middle School was vacated as an examination room, and the usually crowded classrooms suddenly seemed very spacious. Needless to say, An Ning enjoyed exams. Looking at the bright examination room, the peaceful mood is also bright. Usually everyone is the same, and it is only during the exam that you can really see the difference between people. In school, An Ning is most proud of his impressive grades - although he was once affected by Hao Junwei, his grades fell desperately and failed to maintain his usual third place. On the eve of each exam, An Ning couldn't stop being excited and excited, while imagining her own satisfaction when the results were announced. It was only when the results were announced that An Ning could truly appreciate the thrill and joy of victory and superiority. An Ning enjoyed the feeling of being quietly looked up to. An Ning knew in his heart that the price of these was to pay several times more effort and sweat than others. No. 1 Middle School is obviously a place full of talents, and the high school curriculum, as Mei Xueyao said, is no longer a simple rote memorization, but mainly relies on understanding. In this respect, An Ning has no advantage over others - girls enter high school, as if they are a disadvantaged group. Look at Tang Tang, it is really easy to take the first place, and never delay even a minute of rest and sleep. What is Guan Ruixuan like, of course, An Ning has very little contact, and there is no way to know. As Wei Yuntao said, there are not many girls in the top ten, and even fewer in the top five. Therefore, An Ning was very afraid that the halo on her head would be taken away by someone else if she was accidental, so she had to work harder and use the pressure caused by others as the motivation for her to study hard. And this time, because of Hao Junwei's stimulation, An Ning is almost forcing herself to do better, at least not down! An Ning's innate strong self-esteem made her unable to bear that she was worse than Hao Junwei. When Mei Xueyao accompanied her to see Hao Junwei in No. 2 Middle School, An Ning knew that Hao Junwei was now more powerful than before, and An Ning could only make herself more powerful.
I can't afford to think about it, but those three busy days have passed. The faculty and staff of No. 1 Middle School pay great attention to the word "efficiency", so on the afternoon of the third day after the exam, the meager but glorious report card has been quietly pasted on the left side of the blackboard of each class. An Ning watched with great satisfaction as her name was juxtaposed with the number two, Yaoyao was also good, and her name was juxtaposed with three. An Ning exhaled lightly, and her gaze followed Mei Xueyao's name back to the top line of the report card. Although I had already seen it just now, although it was all expected, An Ning still couldn't help but firmly fix her eyes on the three words "Guan Ruixuan" that were listed alongside the numbers, and couldn't move away for a long time. If you can't move it, you have to move it! An Ning forcibly pulled away his gaze as if he was going to stick to "Guan Ruixuan". What about Tang Tang? An Ning looked down line by line in order.
The students couldn't accept that Tang Tang and Guan Ruixuan always sat in the first and second positions alternately at the beginning, and now they can't accept that Tang Tang's ranking is not within the top ten. From unaccustomed to habitual, and then from accustomed to unaccustomed, no one can do it for a while.
Tang Tang sat very quietly, as if he had known this result for a long time. But he alone knows, and the others don't know. An Ning didn't know, Mei Xueyao didn't know, and even Guan Ruixuan felt very unexpected-although they didn't usually have much intersection with each other, it was really a very fortunate thing to have such a competitive opponent as Tang Tang.
Mei Xueyao sat quietly in the back and watched Tang Tang sit quietly in front, Mei Xueyao felt that she was reading a painting, an obscure painting.
An Ning finally couldn't stand it anymore, stood up and shouted with a crying voice: "Tang Tang, what's the matter with you?" What the hell is wrong with you? What's going on with you? ”
Tang Tang turned his head to An Ning very calmly: "It's nothing, I just want to experience the feeling of being noticed again, that's all." With that, a head overlapped back along the path it had turned, and continued to sit quietly.
"If you want to draw people's attention to what kind of way is not good, why do you have to choose this?" An Ning cried even more, and was sad for Tang Tang. It seems that the person who suddenly regressed from the first to the thirteenth was not Tang Tang, but An Ning himself. The so-called sympathy for the same disease, Tang Tang's mood at this time, only An Ning can best understand, and only An Ning can best know how deep the pain hidden under Tang Tang's seemingly calm appearance at the moment is. Once upon a time, how could she not be like this herself? The more painful, the calmer! This situation and this scene seem familiar. No, this situation is already familiar.
But Tang Tang didn't turn his head again, and Ren Anning hung his hands behind him.
Mei Xueyao couldn't guess that in Mei Xueyao's eyes, Tang Tang had always been the best. At the time of the exam, everyone was doing their best, and there was no reason for him to fall so badly, and he was only a few points short of the fourteenth. In the past, when Tang Tang took the first exam, he always threw Guan Ruixuan, who ranked second, out of the way. Is this his level? Could it be that he's been playing all this time? This is not his personality, why did he get into the exam like this... Why is it that my heart hurts so tightly, it hurts! Is this person whose heart is aching unbearably still Mei Xueyao in the past? Can you come back after you come out?
"Mei Xueyao, Mei Xueyao, Mei Xueyao-"
Mei Xueyao found that the classroom was more lively than just now, and the topic never left Tang Tang. Mei Xueyao's eyes probed back and forth in every inch of the air in the classroom, and her ears were always forced to fill with two words - Tang Tang. Everyone's mouth seems to be open and closed, completely ignoring Tang Tang's existence, and no one cares about Tang Tang's feelings, and no one is willing to let Tang Tang go. Mei Xueyao wanted to shout, but she couldn't make a single sound in her throat. Mei Xueyao looked at Tang Tang, but Tang Tang was still sitting and didn't move. An Ning was sweating, and An Ning didn't stop talking in Tang Tang's ear for a moment, so that Tang Tang couldn't be cleaned for a moment. Mei Xueyao's already unbearable pain in her heart is now like being stabbed with a needle, and the pain is becoming more and more unbearable.
"Mei Xueyao—"
It's still Guan Ruixuan's voice. Mei Xueyao didn't care about him, Mei Xueyao just wanted to run down quickly to find Wei Yuntao. Soon, Wei Yuntao followed Mei Xueyao up. This time, Wei Yuntao didn't stand outside the classroom and knock on the glass, nor did he look for his former classmates to shout, Wei Yuntao walked straight to Tang Tang's side. Mei Xueyao watched Tang Tang follow Wei Yuntao and leave the classroom one after the other.
"Mei Xueyao—" Guan Ruixuan leaned over again.
This is the fifth time Guan Ruixuan shouted! In fact, Mei Xueyao had already heard the first sound, but there was a priority, and Mei Xueyao couldn't take care of it. Now that the matter is urgent, Mei Xueyao doesn't know how to talk to Guan Ruixuan, but she didn't expect... Mei Xueyao turned her head, and a pair of clear and transparent eyes met Guan Ruixuan's enthusiastic eyes. In Guan Ruixuan's eyes, Mei Xueyao is the most perfect.
"I just watched, this time you are the best, the first place." Mei Xueyao said. Mei Xueyao was still a little embarrassed, and felt sorry for Guan Ruixuan: "Just now... I... You see, I'm sorry, I..." If it were someone else, Mei Xueyao wouldn't even be able to say a complete sentence. The better the person, the more Mei Xueyao felt guilty and uneasy, and Mei Xueyao didn't know what to say and what to do to redeem that little bit.
Grades! It's another achievement! Could it be that there is no other topic between himself and Mei Xueyao besides his grades? Mei Xueyao pays attention to herself, except for her grades, is there nothing else? Maybe the above words came from someone else's mouth, and Guan Ruixuan would feel proud and proud. After all, as a student, who doesn't want to have impressive grades. But now that Mei Xueyao's mouth came out leisurely, Guan Ruixuan only felt an inexplicable irritability growing from the inside out. The matter between Mei Xueyao and Tang Tang, except for An Ning, other people may not know anything, but Guan Ruixuan couldn't be clearer. Since Mei Xueyao moved over for the first time, Mei Xueyao's affairs, just like Tang Tang, Guan Ruixuan have mastered everything one by one. If you want to know what's going on with another person, you just have to focus on it. What's more, it is even easier for a person with a high IQ like Guan Ruixuan. Plus a gut reaction...
"Guan Ruixuan-" After waiting for a long time, Guan Ruixuan still didn't see a reaction, and this time it was Mei Xueyao's turn to be anxious. What would it matter if you shouted yourself five times in a row?
Guan Ruixuan's irritability intensified in his heart, and as soon as his mind turned, a thought rose in the depths of his mind, wanting to stimulate Mei Xueyao fiercely to compensate Mei Xueyao for ignoring herself: "What do you say Tang Tang is doing this time, why is he playing so abnormally?" ”
Why is it still Tang Tang? shouted at himself for so long, it turned out that it was also because of Tang Tang. Everyone's topic is inseparable from Tang Tang, even Guan Ruixuan is not exempt from vulgarity? Mei Xueyao's heart that had rarely calmed down suddenly became turbulent again, Mei Xueyao was very afraid to hear about Tang Tang's grades again, what Mei Xueyao cared about was Tang Tang's feelings. The seats are still empty, what will Wei Yuntao talk about? Mei Xueyao put her hands on her chest, her left hand tightly held her right hand, extremely uneasy and nervous.
As soon as the words came out, Guan Ruixuan immediately regretted it. What's going on with yourself? Evil? Seeing Mei Xueyao's reaction again, Guan Ruixuan regretted it even more. originally wanted to comfort Mei Xueyao, but now she didn't say a word of comfort, but sprinkled salt on her wound, which made Mei Xueyao even more sad. Why be irritable? Why can't you calm down? Why did Mei Xueyao make herself irritable with a word? Why can't you find all your usual composure and calmness?
"Mei Xueyao-Mei Xueyao, I just ... I really didn't mean to, are you okay? ”
Mei Xueyao smiled miserably: "It's okay, I'm fine." ”
Mei Xueyao turned her head and stopped talking, staring at the open textbook in front of her without blinking. Guan Ruixuan said something behind him, but Mei Xueyao couldn't listen to half a word. The heart couldn't calm down at all, and his ears were filled with the word Tang Tang. On the open textbook, page 69 is a big "Tang", and page 70 is a big "Tang". It's terrible! Mei Xueyao shook her head desperately.
Perhaps, I should go out and take a breath too! As soon as she thought about this, Mei Xueyao immediately closed her textbook and left the classroom without looking back, leaving Guan Ruixuan's gaze behind her - of course, Mei Xueyao couldn't have known that Guan Ruixuan was looking at her back silently.
It's not just Guan Ruixuan, a sophomore in high school. In the classroom of the first class, there was also a person who looked at Mei Xueyao's back silently. Her name is Ma Xiaolin.
