Chapter Seventy-One: Classmates Recognize Each Other
"You just sit here!" Meng Ying led Yin Hongmei to the last row, pointed to Gu Xinyuan and said: "I heard that the two of you were in the same class last semester, you can borrow class notes or something, and if you don't have any problems, go to the teacher, it's just a week after school, and the learning process is relatively slow, with your grades, you should be able to keep up soon." β
After Gu Xinyuan waited for the head teacher to leave, he turned to look at Yin Hongmei, and after a flash of disgust, his eager tone was full of concern, and he threw out a series of questions: "Why did you come?" Who sent you? Have you left your luggage in your dorm? Have you eaten? Oh, by the way, this is my notebook, which subject are you going to read first? β
"That," Yin Hongmei looked at her friend, a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "You asked so many questions at once, how can I answer?" Also, it's morning reading time, and we'll talk about it after class. By the way, what do you have to memorize in today's early English reading? β
Gu Xinyuan pursed his mouth in a little disappointment, sighed, and said helplessly: "Okay then!" It's important to study! As he spoke, he put the English textbook in front of Yin Hongmei and carefully told her some words, phrases and text passages that she had to memorize.
Jingle Bell Bell β
"Gu Xinyuan, hurry up and introduce me!" Meng Boyu looked at the new girl and said happily: "Who is this beautiful young lady who looks a little familiar?" As he spoke, he poked Ouyang Lu's head and said speechlessly: "Don't stop stumbling on English, haven't you already memorized the words of the text?" What are you looking at? It can't be the original English version, right? β
"It's nothing, it's just reading and playing." Ouyang Lu looked at Meng Boyu, who was full of interest, reluctantly closed the book, turned over slightly, and said perfunctorily and casually: "Okay, you can introduce it, I'll listen." β
Meng Boyu saw Ouyang Lu close the book, smiled happily at Gu Xinyuan, and urged, "Okay, now you can introduce it to us." β
"Uh-huh," Gu Xinyuan cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Speaking of this, I have a lot of relationship with her, we are not only in the same class in the first semester of high school, but also roommates in the same dormitory!" "Although the first year of high school has been re-assigned, the dormitory has not been adjusted, and according to the notice of the school, the dormitory will be re-divided in the second year of high school.
"Really? It's really fateful! Then the two of you should have a good relationship, right? Meng Boyu knocked on Ouyang Lu's table and reminded the other party to show a little interest, but the other party seemed to be a little unhappy because he interrupted his reading, and he didn't want to say anything.
"It's not just that, actually, Hongmei and I are still elementary school classmates?"
Red plum?! Elementary school classmates?!
Ouyang Lu turned around suddenly, looked at the girl behind him, looked at it stunned for a while, and suddenly widened his eyes in shock, "Are you ββ, you?" As he spoke, he immediately fell silent, turned back to his seat, and acted as if nothing had happened, and flipped through the books randomly.
"You know her?" Gu Xinyuan thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Oh, I forgot to say, she is actually the one from the last relay race between our two classesββ"
"Uh-huh!" Yin Hongmei reminded Gu Xinyuan awkwardly, and said with a flushed face: "Don't always mention the past!" β
Gu Xinyuan hurriedly covered his mouth, was silent for a while, and whispered apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm quick for a while." β
No wonder I say it looks so familiar!
As soon as Meng Boyu heard the relay race, he immediately remembered that impressive thing.
Yin Hongmei saw that Gu Xinyuan's words were finished, and said with a polite smile: "Now that you all know a little bit about my situation, should you two also introduce yourself?" β
"Of course! Let's talk about it first, Dalu! β
"Wait a minute, I'll have to sort things out first, I'm running out of my head right now?" Ouyang Lu lay on the desk and asked in a muffled voice.
"Alright then, I'll start with that. My name is Meng Boyu, I went to the third high school in junior high school, and the primary school was in Mengzhuang Primary School, and I was in the same class as this guy when I was a freshman in high school. Well, now it's your turn! What are you doing? Meng Boyu saw Ouyang Lu's solemn face, and seemed to be a little uncomfortable, so he asked with concern: "Maybe this guy is a little uncomfortable, right?" His name is Ouyang Lu, and he went to junior high school in City B, and I don't know about elementary school. However, this guy is doing well in school! β
"He's the number one in our grade, he's amazing." Gu Xinyuan said with a bright eye, as if she was the one who took the first place in the exam.
As soon as Yin Hongmei entered the classroom door just now, she saw Gu Xinyuan's tablemate, and she always felt that he seemed to be a little like Yin Chong, a classmate in elementary school, but because there was no person named Yin Chong on the class placement list, she thought that she just looked more like it and was no longer entangled, but the strange reaction of the other party when she heard her name just now, and Meng Boyu said that he was in junior high school in City B, she completely understood that the guy in front of her who claimed to be Ouyang Lu was Yin Chong. She glanced at Gu Xinyuan in disbelief, and then at the guy who was trembling and trying to fool him around, pulled the hat on Ouyang Lu's down jacket, gritted her teeth and asked in a low voice, "What the hell are you doing?" Yin Chong? β
"What are you doing, Hongmei?" Gu Xinyuan, who was stunned by the situation in front of him, reacted instantly, quickly broke Yin Hongmei's tightly held hand, and apologized to Ouyang Lu: "She made a mistake, don't be angry!" After speaking, Yin Hongmei immediately turned her head and explained in a low voice: "You are mistaken!" Didn't you hear, his name is Ouyang Lu, not Yin Chong, and he doesn't have anything to do with our elementary school classmate Yin Chong-"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yin Hongmei glanced at Gu Xinyuan speechlessly, and said as a matter of course: "How do you look at it, this guy is our elementary school classmate Yin Chong!" β
"No, it's true! It's not really, it's, phew, I mean he's not Yoon Chong. Actually, I almost got cheated at the beginning! Gu Xinyuan saw that Yin Hongmei was so resolute, and she also felt that the boy in front of her looked more and more like Yin Chong, but she didn't want to believe that the other party would deliberately lie to herself, so she said stiffly: "Hey, I told you, his name is Ouyang Lu, I don't believe you asked him!" Ouyang Lu, you say! β
"Hello! Yin Hongmei. Seeing Yin Hongmei's serious expression, Ouyang Lu knew that he couldn't deceive the other party, so he had to show a stiff smile in embarrassment and said, "Haha, I didn't expect you to recognize me all of a sudden?" β
"Look, you-huh?! You say so-" The expression on Gu Xinyuan's face froze suddenly, she turned her head stiffly to Ouyang Lu, blinked her eyes twice, and said in disbelief: "You, you, you, how is this possible?" What's the situation? β
Yin Hongmei sighed speechlessly, and said with some amusement: "This guy hasn't changed at all!" How the hell do you tell people? You had the best relationship when you were in elementary school! β
"But, how tall is that Yin Chongcai, and you look at this face and hairstyle, and you look at his size-"
"Hey, huh-" Ouyang Lu sighed helplessly, and reluctantly told Yin Hongmei that he was just pushing the boat down the river.
"Poof-haha, when he was in elementary school, he was baby fat, and his hairstyle can be changed at any time, okay? He's going to grow taller, he's sixteen! Haven't you grown taller too? You're so funny, hahaha, no, my stomach hurts! β
"So, you know who I am but you don't say anything?" Gu Xinyuan frowned and lowered his head, and said in disbelief, "Don't you think you're hateful?" β
"I-" Ouyang Lu didn't argue, but apologized honestly, "I'm sorry!" β
"I've decided to ignore you, and I'll ignore you for the rest of my life! Hum! β
"But you can't say that, can you?" Meng Boyu, who was completely confused on the side, interjected: "Although I am still confused now, you can't blame Da and Yin Chong?" β
"Just call me Da Lu, I'm called Ouyang Lu now."
"That's right, Da Lu, he just changed his name..."Meng Boyu suddenly changed his words as he spoke, looked at Ouyang Lu with disgust and said, "Then why don't you explain it to Gu Xinyuan?" It can't be because Gu Xinyuan didn't recognize you all at once, so you deliberately played a prank, right? How can you be like a schoolboy, what a childish ghost! β
"That, that, oh, yes, the name!" Although Gu Xinyuan pointed at Ouyang Lu, he refused to look at him and asked, "Why didn't he tell me when he changed his name?" Then again, why did he change his name? β
"That's because I have my stepfather's last name! When I was about to graduate from elementary school, my mother remarried. Ouyang Lu reluctantly pressed his temples, turned to Yin Hongmei, who had been glaring at him with anger on his face, and asked, "When I left, I asked you to give her the letter, should you forget to give it to her, right?" β
"Given." Yin Hongmei was stunned for a moment, then raised three fingers to make an oath gesture, and said in a firm tone: "I really gave it!" But..."Glancing at Gu Xinyuan, whose expression was completely frozen, she didn't continue.
"Uh..." As if falling into the ice cellar all of a sudden, Gu Xinyuan instantly felt a chill in her heart, she turned her head in a panic, half-covered her face with her left hand, scratched her forehead with her fingers helplessly, and said embarrassedly: "I was angry with you at the time, and I tore it off directly..."
"What did you say?" Although Ouyang Lu was a little annoyed that Gu Xinyuan tore up the letter he wrote, after all, he was still in a state of loss, and it had been so long, so he said generously: "Okay, I read that you were young and ignorant at that time, so I won't pursue it, forgive you." So, let's shake hands and make peace, right? As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at Yin Hongmei.
"You-" Yin Hongmei's anger was provoked by Ouyang Lu, and she looked at this "despicable" guy angrily, she glared at the other party fiercely.
"Really?" Gu Xinyuan, who was so guilty that she almost went to the hole in the ground, was moved all of a sudden, looked at Ouyang Lu affectionately, and grabbed the other party's hand suddenly, she said excitedly: "You are so good!" Fortunately, he was the same as he was in elementary school, and he was a great person. I misunderstood that you didn't say goodbye, I blamed me for not being good, I was wrong, thank you so much! β
Ouyang Lu, who was issued a good person card like this, said with a wry smile: "No, you're welcome!" Then it was as if it had weathered the stone statue, and completely faded from that radiant look.
"The future is dangerous!" Yin Hongmei looked at Ouyang Lu, who was self-inflicted, and couldn't help but mock: "You deserve it!" Now, I'm in a much better mood! Heart, let's go to dinner together, just the two of us! β
After looking at Yin Hongmei, who looked smug, Gu Xinyuan only thought that the other party was in a good mood because he saw his old classmates, so he nodded happily: "After eating later, let's go buy some snacks and celebrate the meeting of old classmates!" We both went first! After speaking, he left with Yin Hongmei.
After Meng Boyu watched the two girls leave with a confused expression, as if he had found a treasure, he grabbed Ouyang Lu's arm with excitement and asked eagerly, "Why are you so complicated?" Tell me, what's the matter with faith? β
Ouyang Lu collapsed on the desk in frustration, his face flushed and annoyed for a while, and said weakly: "Huh? What did you say? β
"What are you two doing?" Feng Pufei knocked on the door of the fourteenth class classroom and said impatiently, "Aren't you going to eat?" β
"Hey, tell you something funny." Meng Boyu saw Feng Pufei coming to them, and excitedly stretched out his hand to beckon him in, telling him what had just happened from beginning to end. "Isn't it interesting? Hahaha, it's so funny, you didn't see Ouyang Lu like that just now! β
"Poof, hahaha!" Feng Pufei looked at the decadent appearance of Ouyang Lu, who had always been calm in trouble, and laughed.
"Humph!" Ouyang Lu slapped the table, stood up suddenly, and walked out quickly with his head down and red ears on his face.
"He's not going to be angry, is he?" Meng Boyu said with some guilt: "Are we laughing too much?" β
"No, that guy isn't the kind of person who will be angry with others casually, don't worry!"
As soon as Feng Pufei's words fell, he saw Ouyang Lu, who had walked to the door of the classroom, turn around and say to them, "Are you two going to eat?" β
Meng Boyu and Feng Pufei glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's come!" Then, he quickly followed, and one person grabbed Ouyang Lu's shoulder and went downstairs together.
