10. The secret of Su Mu

During the Spring Festival, I went back to my hometown to accompany my mother, so we became the "netizens" who relied on QQ interaction.

The content of the chat is roughly: Which unfamiliar seven aunts and eight aunts did you meet today, and they were compared with someone else's child, what did they eat, and what was the weather......

It's boring, but every time I take out my phone, I look forward to seeing unread messages. And it wasn't boring at all.

My mom and I have been separated for a semester and our relationship is better than when we were together, and those thoughts have invisibly narrowed the distance between us.

During the Lantern Festival, I accompanied my mother to the temple to burn incense, praying for safety and prosperity, etc., and the elders believed in those.

When I came out, I met the Su Mu family who also came to burn incense. The two of us exchanged a few words of greeting, and Su Mu's mother enthusiastically said that she would send me and my mother back together. It happened to be a light raindrop in the sky. Mom didn't postpone it.

Su Mu and I haven't seen each other since we graduated. I occasionally comment on each other in QQ space, after all, it's not so easy to meet each other when I'm not in the same school, and the busy high school life engulfs every weekend. We didn't go out together on weekends like we did in junior high school.

When I got off the bus, my mother wanted to give Su Mu's mother the fare, after all, there was a distance, but Su Mu's mother didn't answer, the two pulled for a long time, and then the two left each other's phones, Su Mu and I looked at each other and smiled, full of incomprehension of the adult world.

The next day, my mother took some of the pumpkin pie and pickled radish strips made at home and asked me to send them to Su Mu's house to express my gratitude. When I sent it, Su Mu was the only one at home, and the two of them sat and chatted for a while.

"How's high school life going, is it fun?" Su Mu asked me first.

"There are only endless classes and unfinished test papers, and there is no time to play, is your school stricter?"

"It's the same end of the world, our school is full of masters, and I don't dare to relax. Oh, by the way, my parents rented me a house near the school, and my aunt also went to accompany me, if you have time to play with me on the weekend. ”

"Okay, I'll go to you to make up for me, An Luo helped me make up for the class before I came back, and the winter vacation homework was also completed under his guidance."

"You and Anluo, you?"

"No, no, we're friends, just like the two of us. We haven't met before, it's just that sometimes QQ chats, my exam scores have been declining last semester, and then An Luo helped me make up for the class during the holidays. ”

"Don't be so nervous, I won't say it, there are a lot of people in our school who are secretly in love."

"Really?"

"Well, how about you have someone you like at school, or someone who writes you a love letter, is there any?"

"No, I'm not as good-looking as you, and my academic performance is good. You're going to get a lot of love letters, right? Do you have someone you like? ”

"Yes"

Su Mu said that sometimes that kind of determined expression shocked me, and she always seemed to have an unknown side waiting for me to discover. At the same time, I envy her for being able to face her heart like this, but I don't dare to say it.

Bean Sprouts often said that she liked me as a friend because I could always face everything with a smile and bravely, and that kind of refusal to admit defeat made her feel very cool.

But I prefer the bean sprouts and Su Mu's smile. The smile of the bean sprouts is very pure, hearty, and can always bring people to a carefree state. And Su Mu's smile is always confident and open, which attracts against her quiet appearance.

"That person must be very good!" I couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, it's excellent, you know," Su Mu said with a smile as he tilted his head to me.

"I know?" I was a little confused and began to recall in my mind the mutual friends we knew.

"Anluo" Su Mu smiled so happily when she said it, but in this gloomy southern winter, she was as bright as in the summer sun.

"So you like him." I kept my head down, and my mind was full of images of them standing together, and I was right.

"I went to high school in City A for him, and his father wanted him to be admitted to Peking University. So I don't dare to relax now, I have to work harder. ”

"Your grades are so good, it's no problem." It turned out that Su Mu went to City A for An Luo, and I suddenly remembered that the most music played on the school radio at that time was Jay Chou, because he liked it. I searched in my mind for the traces that I had missed in my memories.

"Originally, I thought you liked Anluo too."

"No" I don't know why I denied it, I've never been brave, not as brave as the sprouts say to make her feel cool, in fact I'm very cowardly.

"Then as a friend, you have to help me, but I'm not in a hurry now, with An Luo's character, I shouldn't be in early love, wait until I go to college, I can wait."

"Come on!" I don't know if I want to tell Su Mu or myself, the gloomy sky ultraviolet rays are also dazzling, so I can't raise my head.

Later, Su Mu said a lot about the campus life between her and An Luo, which is the "inseparable" that I envy, you can go to class together, do problems together, and go to the cafeteria together......
