Chapter 33: Together

In the blink of an eye, the end of the semester is approaching, and the teacher repeatedly emphasizes the importance of subject selection in the class, and the students are also discussing the subject selection in their spare time.

"Fang Ruo, do you choose liberal arts or science?" Liang Qingqing looked at the subject selection list in her hand, and she had already used a black pen to put a big tick behind the science option.

"I chose liberal arts, and I didn't do well in science." Fang Ruo pursed her lips, remembering a recent mock exam, and the results came out, as she expected, the liberal arts scores still prevailed.

"Ah, then we won't be in the same class anymore, I chose science, I'm really not interested in liberal arts." Liang Qingqing's grades are average, and her science scores are slightly higher than those in liberal arts, and she is more inclined to science, so choosing science is also a natural result.

"yes, I'll miss you." Fang Ruo smiled and rubbed her shoulders, after getting along these days, she felt that Liang Qingqing was a very kind girl, with a quiet personality and a good person, she was really a little reluctant to say that she was going to separate.

"Me too, you should work hard in the liberal arts class."

"Let's do it together."

The two jokingly encouraged each other, in fact, they don't communicate much on weekdays, and neither of them is a cheerful personality, but it is also more tacit for two people to sit at the same table after a semester.

There is a saying that talents are hard to find, and confidants are hard to find, which can be seen from this.

The two of them were talking, and Chen Zifan walked up to them quietly, not making a sound, but listening to their shallow conversation.

Liang Qingqing suddenly found Chen Zifan in her sideways, she stopped talking shyly, as if she had returned to her usual quiet appearance.

Fang Ruo looked at Liang Qingqing in front of him suddenly stopped, followed her gaze, and looked back with some confusion, it turned out to be Chen Zifan, who was looking at them with a smile.

"What's wrong?" Fang Ruo had actually been accustomed to Chen Zifan's sudden arrival, but every time he looked at him, he still felt a little embarrassed and helpless.

"It's okay, I just want to come over and ask you, do you choose liberal arts or science?"

Chen Zifan has been struggling with liberal arts or science, his grades have always been average, but he is an art major, as long as the major score is high, it doesn't matter much if he chooses arts and sciences, as long as the cultural score of the college entrance examination can pass the basic line.

But what he thought in his heart was that he would choose the same subject as Fang Ruo, so the probability of being in the same class would be higher, there were only about four or five liberal arts classes in each class, but the science class was twice as large as the liberal arts class.

"I choose liberal arts." Fang Ruo didn't know how many times he said this today, and there was a hint of tiredness in his tone.

"That's good, I want to choose liberal arts too." Chen Zifan scratched his head unnaturally, but he was very happy in his heart.

"Okay." Fang Ruo smiled politely at him, and he walked away satisfied.

When I had dinner with Zheng Yuqian at noon, I learned that she also wanted to choose liberal arts, and the two of them were very happy, thinking that the probability of being assigned to the same class would be much higher this time.

And even if you don't end up in the same class, your good friends will feel that you are on the same front with you, and you will not be alone.

"It's been a long year, and finally, he's coming, soon." Zheng Yuqian muttered to herself, but Fang Ruo immediately knew what she meant.

"He, he doesn't seem to be coming, but not necessarily, I don't know." Fang Ruo's tone was very soft, as if she was afraid that her words would be too heavy and would disturb her sweet dreams.

"Why, he doesn't want to come?" Zheng Yuqian said urgently, and her mood also fell to the bottom.

"He, I don't know, it seems that he quarreled with his parents and said..." Fang Ruo didn't know how to speak, this fact was said, I don't know if Zheng Yuqian can accept it.

"What is it? Is there anything I can't accept, you say, I want to know what the reason is. Zheng Yuqian encouraged Fang Ruo to continue, her eyes were full of expectation, so that Fang Ruo could not refuse.

"That is, he seems to say that he wants to bring someone to the first middle school with him, it is a girl, but his parents won't let him, saying that this is not like words."

Fang Ruo remembered that when she passed downstairs at Xiang Zichen's house that day, she heard the fierce quarrel between him and his family, and then she asked Xu Zhuoyuan to ask, and after coming back, Xu Zhuoyuan told her the reason, and she knew the ins and outs of the matter.

"Girls? Is he a girlfriend? Zheng Yuqian looked at Fang Ruo in a daze, and her voice trembled a little.

"It should be, he said that if his parents didn't help her get her to go to No. 1 Middle School, then he wouldn't come to No. 1 Middle School to study, and now it's a stalemate." Fang Ruo sighed, and he didn't know what to say to comfort Zheng Yuqian.

"Then he should like her very much, does he have someone he likes? It seems that he is. Zheng Yuqian asked and answered herself, in fact, she already had the answer in her heart, who could make the prodigal son turn back to Zichen, then this person must be his very precious person.

But it's a pity that this person is not her, even if she has been thinking about it, it won't be her.

In the past, she always felt that he was at ease every day, and it was like child's play to find a girlfriend to fall in love, he had never been serious, every time it was three minutes of heat, and he ignored her after a while after he got it, but this time he would make such a request for a girl, just because he wanted to go to school with her.

He is serious, although I don't know how sincere he is, Zheng Yuqian already knows in his heart that this time is definitely different from the past.

"This is not necessarily, maybe he is just a momentary heat." Fang Ruo comforted her a few words, but she also felt very uncertain in her heart.

Zheng Yuqian nodded, as if she agreed with what she said, but her heart was already as uncomfortable as turning over the river and the sea.

She hadn't seen Xiang Zichen for a long time, the last time she met was a few days before the start of school, she went to Fang Ruo's house to get the information, and when she passed downstairs from his house, she happened to meet him who was walking downstairs, and the two of them were very surprised when they saw each other.

Xiang Zichen was wearing a pair of simple sterling silver studs on his ears, his hair was fluffy golden curls, and his smile still made her blush and heartbeat instantly, he was wearing an alternative but not vulgar fashion, which was a dress she had never seen, tall and thin, but he walked a little hunchbacked, giving people a little decadent feeling, but as soon as he spoke, Zheng Yuqian felt that he was still as familiar to her as before.

"Long time no see, Zheng Yuqian, you seem to be a little prettier, it seems that the heavy study pressure has not crushed you." He still likes to joke as much as before, and he never shows mercy when he teases her.

"You're too, you're dressed up very fashionably." Zheng Yuqian responded to him with a calm smile, trying to make herself look calm and generous.

After hearing this, Xiang Zichen just waved his hand and smiled helplessly at her, "Let's play together next time." He said as he walked forward, and this sentence was in his mind but the final end of the topic.

"Next time", when will it be next time, Zheng Yuqian looked at his back, and her heart was extremely melancholy.

How did she not know that this "next time" was equivalent to "indefinite", but it could not be denied that her heart began to look forward to it intentionally or unintentionally, maybe there really is a next time, maybe this "next time" will one day become "period".

She hadn't seen him since, and she remembered the day he joked that he was pretty, and even though he used to praise others and talk about it, she felt very happy in her heart.

How would he have known that she had been at home all morning preparing for this chance encounter, and had rummaged through the wardrobes just to pick out a dress she thought he would like; When combing your hair, comb and untie your hair, untie and tie it, just to see yourself in the mirror and have a satisfactory hairstyle; When I put on new shoes, I feel happy when I walk.

Remembering that Fang Ruo said that he had the habit of going out to buy ice cream in the afternoon, she rushed over under the scorching sun and wandered around his house for a long time, just to see him.

The moment she heard the iron door of his house, she felt that her breathing was about to stop, and she kept reminding herself in her heart, constantly taking deep breaths, just to behave naturally in front of him, pretending that they were so fateful to meet by chance.

These are all things he doesn't know, secret love, destined to be a journey with no end, forever on the road, but never returning.

Every time Fang Ruo didn't understand why she liked Xiang Zichen, she curiously asked her why she liked it, but she couldn't say why, but she knew in her heart that he was not the chaotic person he seemed on the surface.

She remembers that when they were not familiar with each other, one day after school, she was on duty to clean the outdoor public area under the jurisdiction of the class, the basketball court, and the classmates who were on duty that day ran away, so she swept the leaves on the ground alone, swept several handfuls of baskets, and was tired and sweaty.

When it was finally time to clean up, she pushed the garbage truck and prepared to go to the garbage station to take out the cleaned garbage, and there was an uphill slope to cross the basketball court, she didn't have so much strength, and she didn't know what to do when she stopped.

Everyone playing on the basketball court saw her stop, but none of them stepped forward to help her, but only he, after putting down the basketball, came over to help her push the cart without saying a word, and after pushing the uphill and taking out the garbage, he left a sentence "In the future, this kind of work will be done by boys." Then he walked away in style and continued to play on the court.

That day, Zheng Yuqian looked at his distant back in the sunset, which complemented the afterglow, more gorgeous than the streamer.

Maybe that's it, like him, there aren't so many reasons, but there seem to be many reasons.

Maybe only she saw his goodness, maybe he, when he was occasionally gentle, happened to let her see it.
