It was another ordinary day, and I strolled through the classroom, supervising the students doing eye exercises, while secretly watching Yan Jinfeng as usual. Although she is also a class cadre, and she has also supervised others to do eye exercises, she is not an honest person who does eye exercises, or she is not good at doing movements at all, so she basically puts her hands loosely on her face to deal with it.

The hands, white and delicate, when the slender fingers occasionally crossed the eye sockets and brushed the eyebrows, it was as if Chang'e gently waved the sleeves, elegant and fresh, and there seemed to be a fragrance scattered between the hands, seducing the soul.

"Mao Xiaoer, Yan Jinfeng said she likes you!"

A loud scream interrupted my thoughts and pulled me back into reality. Look closely, it's Zhang Hong!

I had unconsciously walked near Zhang Hong's desk, and as if he had been prepared, he suddenly stretched out his right hand to greet me and shouted. The face was ecstatic, just as arrogant as when he usually played chess.

Originally, Yan Jinfeng was covering his eyes with his hands, but at this moment, he was suddenly stimulated by Zhang Hong's words, smashed Zhang Hong's back with a punch, and shouted: "No!" Then she looked at me, but there was a smile on her embarrassed face that could not be concealed, both shy and pleasant, like a budding lotus flower, and like a red twilight snow.

Zhang Hongcai didn't care about Yan Jinfeng, he still laughed like a victorious bandit leader, and when he was laughing, he was unexpectedly stepped on by Yan Jinfeng. Presumably, the pain rushed straight to his head from the soles of his feet at a speed of 800 kilometers per hour, and with a scream of "whoop", I saw that his cheeks bulged like a balloon, his eyes widened, and his whole face became like a goldfish.

I froze in place, watching all this, overwhelmed. When Zhang Hong shouted that sentence just now, I chuckled in my heart, and I still can't believe it's true.

Could it be that I was exposed, Zhang Hong was teasing me? Could it be that Yan Jinfeng really likes me, and Zhang Hong molested her after finding out? In retrospect, I have been tight-lipped and well concealed in my actions, it should not be the former, it should be the latter. If Yan Jinfeng really likes me, wouldn't it just follow my heart! Hey! Oh my God, it's not bad for me.

But even so, I must continue to hide myself, and I can't give up all my efforts. So I calmed down, cleared my throat as a class cadre, and calmly responded to them: "Don't bother, do your eye exercises!" Then he went elsewhere.

The farce came and went quickly. That shout caught the attention of the whole class, but with my shout, the class quickly returned to calm, as if nothing had happened. And the aftermath still reverberates in my mind. Zhang Hong has always been joking and open-mouthed, and his classmates know that what he said is not very credible, and he may also be unintentional and say it casually. But how could there be such a coincidence, what if Yan Jinfeng really likes me? It's quite likely, after all, she likes to talk to me when I'm at the same table.

Hey—it's better to find a separate time, find a more serious occasion, and ask Zhang Hong what is going on.

In the next few days, Yan Jinfeng was so angry that he didn't have a good time talking to Zhang Hong, but Zhang Hong was still lively and naughty, as if nothing had happened.

One day during the summer vacation, I went with my father to buy a computer. In the mall, I was pleasantly surprised to meet Zhang Hong, who had accompanied his father to guard the store here. While we were pleasantly surprised, the parents were also overjoyed that this shop happened to be the one my father wanted to inquire about. Now they don't know how long they have been talking about business, and Zhang Hong and I are very bored. Zhang Hong's father later gave him a key and asked him to take me to the back office to play.

The shop is located on the first floor, with a fairly spacious back door, and a narrow passage outside the door, which takes a little two steps to the said office door. In the hot summer, there was a cool breeze blowing through this aisle, and the wind was quite strong, which made people feel much refreshed.

"Maybe it's because of the special terrain here, when the heat in the store can't be satisfied with the fans in the summer, I come here to cool off," Zhang Hong said, "but I haven't been in the office my dad said, and I don't know what's fun." ”

"That's just the time to explore." I said excitedly.

When I opened the office door, I saw shelves full of computer accessories, and two clean wooden tables with glass panels next to each other in the middle of the office. When I got closer, there were several decks of playing cards on the glass plate, as well as a box of Chinese chess, and it seemed that Zhang Hong's father's clerk usually had a pastime here when he was bored.

Playing cards is not much fun for two people, Chinese chess is more suitable, but unfortunately we can only play chess.

Ordinary people don't usually have a box of chess at home, but Chinese chess is basically standard, and you can find it by flipping through it. In addition to the difference in gameplay, the difference between the two is not very big, the two sides also have sixteen chess pieces each, and the chessboard is also eight times eight after removing the Chu River Han realm. So I picked up the ballpoint pen on the table and wrote "Hou" and "Bing" on the back of the "Shi" and "Cannon", and then folded the Chu River and Han Boundary in the middle of the paper chessboard and pressed it with a heavy object, even if I completed the transformation from Chinese chess to chess. When there was no ready-made chess, we often played Chinese chess as chess like this, and we were very proficient.

So we set up the chess pieces and started to play with great interest.

The door felt a little stuffy when it was closed, so we left it open. In an instant, a cold air blew into the office, which was the natural cool breeze in the hallway, which was almost as good as an air conditioner.

"It's so cool, your office is indeed a good place to relax." I sighed.

"Haha, but I feel that this wind is a little unusual, and there is no such strong wind in the aisle normally." Zhang Hong pointed to the sky and said, "Look! It seemed to be a little dark. ”

"Really."

"Forget it, no matter, let's have a good game."

"Well, let's get it."

Like every time he plays chess, Zhang Hong's mouth will not stop. When talking about what happened in school, I found the right time and asked the sentence that I had been holding in my heart for a long time: "What you said last time that Yan Jinfeng likes me, is it really fake?" By the way, he arched the pawn, and the moment the chess pieces collided with the glass plate, there was a "bang" sound.

"Oh? It's been a long time, remember? Knock.

"This joke you made also involved me, and of course I have to be vigilant as a person concerned. I've wanted to ask you for a long time, but I've never looked for a chance. Knock.

"Hehe, this is not a joke, this is true, I heard Yan Jinfeng say it with my own ears!" Zhang Hong had a smug smile on his face again. It was impossible to tell what it meant, it was the same when he was genuinely happy, the same when he played a prank with bad intentions, and the same when he was idle. This smile is more like a mask, clinging to his face, and it is impossible to tell whether it is hypocritical or sincere.

Outside, it was really dark, and a few muffled thunderbolts poked their heads out of the dark clouds. It seems inevitable that there will be a thundershower, and it is a frequent visitor in midsummer.

"Oh? What's going on? The corners of my mouth rose slightly, and I pretended not to care much about the matter, and slowly flew a few squares. Boom.

"I saw a piece of paper in her stationery box with a cartoon cat face drawn on it. I was curious and asked her if she had drawn it herself. She said you painted it, she thought it was cute, and it was perfect to use as a decoration in a stationery box. I asked her if she liked you, and she confessed! Hahahaha......" Zhang Hong danced with excitement when he said, his eyes had narrowed into a line, but it vaguely revealed the sharp gaze of a chess player.

Listening to that, I'm pretty happy. Unexpectedly, she still cherished the cat face painted for Yan Jinfeng at that time. I'm not good at drawing, but the cartoon cat face is still drawn quite like in the cartoon, and it's very cute. I'm sure there's no one in the class better at drawing this than I do, and that's what I'm proud of.

I still remember when I first painted it to Yan Jinfeng, through the afterglow that was not very clear, I faintly noticed that she was not looking at the paper, but looking at herself. Those big sparkling round eyes are exuding tenderness at the moment, full of infinite worship and admiration. And I don't turn to her to test my observations, that would disturb her, I just enjoy everything silently.

At that moment, it seems that all time has stopped, and we are immersed in a separate space that belongs to us, accompanied by the pink petals that flutter and rotate around us.

After Zhang Hong finished laughing, he picked up the horse and jumped a step, lowered his voice and whispered, "Eh, say that...... You seem to like her, too? "Boom!

I was basking in fond memories of unconsciously playing with a captured piece between my index and middle fingers. Unexpectedly, this "bang" suddenly pulled me back to reality, and the chess pieces in my hand fell heavily on the glass plate. Just as a huge lightning bolt streaked through the air, a deafening thunder drowned out the thump that the chess piece was supposed to make.

"Wow, that's a lot of thunder." I looked up and smiled at Zhang Hong, and when I looked back, I found that my right hand was still holding the chess pieces just now, but the chess pieces were gone.

"yes, yes, hehe." Zhang Hong still smiled like that, glanced at me, and then stared at the chessboard with his head buried in it, pretending that nothing happened.

"This move is very ruthless, you want to force me to exchange your horse with a cart." I smiled, "Fortunately, I saw through it, you've been laying the groundwork long enough." So what should I do? ”

"Don't rush, think slowly, hehe."

I was so negligent before, I didn't even calculate this trick, and it's really hard to do it now. I thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that I couldn't save the car if I broke my head. The pouring rain outside the door had already taken action, filling the whole world, and the noisy sound of the rain was turning over the river and the sea in my heart, and I was not at peace. I was so annoyed that I couldn't think about it anymore, so I finally decided to let it go, at least it would be better.

I reluctantly exchanged the horse for the cart and said, "For your brother's sake, I'll be honest today, I do like her." ”

Zhang Hong showed a stunned expression on his face, it seemed that what he said before was sincere, not deliberately tricked my words: "Wow, what a windfall!" When did you start liking it? ”

"I've loved it since I was in second grade."

"Wow, you're really good, you didn't see it!"

"It's enough for you to know this today, don't tell anyone else."

"Don't worry, I will never betray my good brother!"

In the end, I won the game that day, and I was very happy to win a game against him. But is Zhang Hong reliable? He is such a lively person, such a laughing person, such a big mouth, I actually expect him to keep secrets? What an impulse! Hey, forget it, since I want to get information from him, how can I not pay a little price. The scene is clearer, but it's a pity that the precious car was exchanged for an inconspicuous horse......

Sure enough, what I feared came true, and soon after the start of the fourth grade, I felt that several of my classmates saw me differently. Zhang Hong is really not a friend who can be deeply acquainted.
