"Song Hongyi, help me go to Class 4 to get the tape recorder, and there is a stack of homework books, I just forgot there." One day, the English teacher came up to us and said, "It's a bit too much, so it's better to call a few more people." ”

Our English teacher is also the homeroom teacher and English teacher of Class 4, and she is not a person who is usually lost, and she rarely asks Song Hongyi, as a representative of the English class, to pick up things temporarily. Maybe I'm in a bit of a hurry today.

So Song Hongyi called me to go with him.

Classes 3 and 4 are quite close in numbers, but they are geographically far apart. I haven't usually been to the gate of Class 4, but this time I went with Song Hongyi to feel a little fresh.

When I stepped into the door of Class 4, I suddenly found that there was a very familiar guy in the first row of seats at the door, and it turned out to be You Fu! Oh my God, this guy is also in this junior high school, and I didn't find out until the second year of junior high school!

You Fu was boredly flipping through the English textbook in his hand and didn't notice me. Obviously, they had just finished their English class, and the English teacher hurried to our class after class only to remember that they had forgotten to take some things, and they didn't want to run again, so they called Song Hongyi to get them.

I have never forgotten the pictures of Yan Jinfeng and You Fu kissing me in elementary school, those pictures that made me crazy to lose my mind. You Fu, as a person who is madly infatuated by Yan Jinfeng, I have always been deeply jealous of him. But in the face of such an honest little boy, I hate him for not coming.

He transferred to the class for five years, and he didn't know the relationship between me and Yan Jinfeng at all, and he still doesn't know it. He didn't take the initiative to do anything, so he was inexplicably targeted by Yan Jinfeng. It's like a pie fell from the sky and hit him, he is actually quite innocent.

I walked over to him: "You Fu! So you're in Class 4! ”

You Fu raised his head, and then he found me, and he was immediately excited: "Mao Xiaoer!" What are you doing here? ”

"I'm in class 3, and we're the same English teacher. I'm going to help her get something. ”

"Wow, what a coincidence!"

"You just finished your English class, right?"

"Yes, this class is mainly about listening."

"You're so serious, you're out of class, and you're still holding your English textbook."

"Well, just playing with it in your hand."

"I just saw a lot of pictures in your book, and it sounds beautiful."

"Haha, I drew it blindly when I was bored in class."

"Your painting is top-notch!" With You Fu's acquiescence, I flipped through his English book.

Almost every page has a stick figure illustration attached to the blank space, which adds a lot of color to the whole book, including pure and lovely beautiful girls, majestic armored warriors, exquisite fairy tale toys, and exquisite and ingenious daily tools...... The well-proportioned structure and soft lines all show a delicate heart.

When I'm bored in class, I also scribble on books, usually just a few scribbled lines, not formed at all, the only thing that is formed is the cartoon cat face, and I can't even draw the whole cat. Only this cartoon cat face can be called perfect, and it has also won the favor of Yan Jinfeng.

After flipping through a few pages, a unique pattern caught my eye. From a distance, it is a word for "love", but up close, it is spelled "I love you". "I" is the top one, "love" is the following three points, after writing the bald treasure cover, "you" constitutes a horizontal and a skimming of the word "friend", and finally writes the word "again" on completion, the overall look is very beautiful, and the meaning is profound, it is simply a weapon to show talent when confessing, girls absolutely like it.

"It's very creatively written, did you come up with it?" I asked You Fu excitedly.

"Hey—this ......" You Fu didn't know what to say for a while, so he paused thoughtfully for a while and said, "It's still early for class, let's go to the balcony and talk for a while." ”

So, we hunched on the railing of the balcony and watched the crowd coming and going in the courtyard below.

"This is what I want to write to Yan Jinfeng." You Fu stared at everything in front of him and said slowly, "I have always missed the time I spent with Yan Jinfeng. At that time, we snuggled up to each other all day long, feeling the refreshing sweetness, happy as if wandering among the magnificent stars, all our troubles no longer existed, and we felt that we were the happiest people in the world. ”

You Fu's deep voice was hoarse, it was a sincere and deep expression. He still stared blankly ahead, as if what he saw was not the crowd on campus, but more like scenes from the past, emerging, shining, and then fading and dissipating into nothingness.

From his eyes, I seemed to see my former self. However, in comparison, You Fu may have paid more feelings, and the scars left by Yan Jinfeng may be much deeper than my own. If I was kicked down by Yan Jinfeng when I was standing on the roof of the building, then You Fu was taken to the sky by Yan Jinfeng and soared, he was brutally plucked out of his wings, his limbs were tied, and then he was thrown to the ground heavily.

"I always think of her throughout the year," You Fu continued, "I think of her whenever I am bored in class, and when I think of her, I write the word 'love' in the blank space of the book." In addition to English books, I also wrote about it in other textbooks, and I have several pages of it. It's a pity that I never showed it to Yan Jinfeng. If she saw it, she would like me as much as she used to, right? ”

In the face of his affectionate narration, I was speechless, so I could only slowly raise my hand and pat You Fu's shoulder, just like when Xie Liang patted himself.

"Do you know where she is?" I asked.

"She's in Class 7."

"Have you been to her?"

"I went, but she ignored me like she never liked me."

"Okay. By the way, we don't know each other very well, so why are you willing to tell me this? ”

"I know you like her too."

"How do you know?"

"I knew it when I was in elementary school."

"Oh?" I always thought that he didn't know anything, but I didn't expect him to know about my relationship with Yan Jinfeng for a long time. Thinking about it, this is actually quite reasonable, after all, my classmates love gossip, and those gossips are spreading in the shadows, how can they be exposed under my eyelids all the time?

"Yes, now, we are also brothers and sisters, haha." A smile reappeared on You Fu's gloomy face.

The sun shone on our faces, and I suddenly felt that such a scene was full of poetry. Standing next to me was You Fu, who seemed to be Xie Liang, and it seemed that both of them were there. The three of us lay neatly on the railing, staring into the distance, and the white clouds slowly drifted by, taking away a little sorrow.

Maybe this is also a fate, not the fate of Xie Liang, me or You Fu, we are just three grasshoppers tied to this fate line, this is Yan Jinfeng's fate.

In Yan Jinfeng's fate, there will definitely be more grasshoppers on the leash, each of them is a victim of sorrow, Xie Liang is the first, I am the second, You Fu is the third, the little boy I saw some time ago may be the fourth, and even his number is more than four. We were tethered to that hemp rope and roasted in a blazing fire, suffering from eternal torment.

The breeze blew across my cheeks with the cool autumn air, and at that moment, I was relieved. I understand Xie Liang's mood when he patted me on the shoulder, and now I am in the same mood on You Fu's shoulder.

Relieved, some things still have to be done, such as the greeting card to give Yan Jinfeng at Christmas. I don't care if she will reply to herself, this has become a ritual, just like eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival and mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival; This has also become a habit, just like you should eat when you are late and you should go to bed at night, which is deeply imprinted in your life.

On this greeting card, I wrote the word "love" vividly. Although You Fu said that he hadn't shown it to Yan Jinfeng, he couldn't guarantee that Yan Jinfeng had seen it. So I'm going to have something of my own. Following the idea of the word "love", I used the initials of my name to spell out the shape of a cat, M for cat ears and whiskers, X for body, and E for tail. After signing my name and drawing my iconic cartoon cat face, you're done.

I looked at the card and thought about it for a long time. Who knows if Yan Jinfeng will think of me a little more when she sees this greeting card, or You Fu a little more, or if she has more people around her now?

This time, I decided to give it to Yan Jinfeng in person, and I didn't care what her reaction would be on the spot, and I didn't expect her to respond afterwards.

That day, I came to the door of class 7 with my head held high, and casually asked an unknown classmate to call Yan Jinfeng out.

The classmate was too lazy to move, so he stood up directly and yelled in the direction of Yan Jinfeng: "Yan Jinfeng, someone is looking for you at the door!" ”

With this shout, it was not only Yan Jinfeng who looked back at me, but everyone in the class at that time looked at me almost at the same time. I didn't expect such a stubble, I instantly felt a huge pressure, and my self-confidence dropped by half all of a sudden.

Yan Jinfeng still walked out quickly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Uh...... Nothing particularly important. I respectfully handed the card to her with a warm smile, "Merry Christmas to you!" ”

Yan Jinfeng gently took the greeting card, looked at the ground with her eyelids lowered, whispered "thank you", and then turned back.

Many students in the class were still paying attention to Yan Jinfeng, curious about what she was holding in her hand, and looking at me curiously from time to time.

Those eyes were like bats in the dark, and they gave me the creeps. Among them, there must have been the skinny guy and the tall boy I saw at the school sports day later. I didn't look closely, and I didn't dare to spend more time doing so, so I quickly ran back to my class.

The next day, when I was returning to the classroom from the courtyard, I suddenly found Yan Jinfeng at the door of our class, holding something similar to a greeting card.

Oh, my God! She had never been at the door of our class, how could she come today! Is she finally going to reply to me with a greeting card this year? Could it be that she finally understood the meaning of what I was expressing through the word "love"? Could it be that she was finally moved by my sincerity and was willing to renew her relationship with me?

Yan Jinfeng poked his head and looked inside the classroom, and then said something to the person at the window.

I stopped her from behind: "Huh! Yan Jinfeng, why are you here? ”

Yan Jinfeng was startled, and quickly turned around to look at me, his face as white as snow. She patted her chest, eased her breath, and said, "I'm looking for someone." ”

At this time, Xiaomei came to us, looked at me in amazement, and said, "Huh! Mao Xiaoer, do you two know each other? ”

"Uh...... Well...... Elementary school classmates. I nervously glanced to the side.

"Xiaomei, I wish you a Merry Christmas!" Yan Jinfeng directly handed over the things in his hand to Xiaomei.

"Well, you talk first, I'll go back first." After I finished talking to Xiaomei, I quickly ran back to the classroom.

Xiaomei was quite interested in my affairs, and when she returned to her seat, she asked me: "Looking at your relationship with Yan Jinfeng, it seems to be unusual." ”

Looking at her malicious smile, I didn't know how to answer.

"Yan Jinfeng? It turned out that the girl's name was Yan Jinfeng. Song Hongyi suddenly interjected.

"Oh? You know, say it, say it! Xiaomei turned to him excitedly, her watery eyes full of curiosity, like a rabbit eager for food.

"You're talking about the girl at the door, right?"

"Uh-huh!"

"Oops! That's the crush of Mao Xiaoer! ”

"Wow, cat Xiaoer!" Xiaomei looked at me again, "I see that you are usually honest, but I didn't expect you to be a lover!" ”

If it was in the past, I would have choked Song Hongyi just now and asked him not to say it. But now that there is no point in concealing this, I have already shown my face in front of the whole class of Class 7, so why should I hide it in front of my own classmates. Now that I know all the flowers and plants near the snake cave, why don't I tell my neighbors that I'm going to catch snakes? Maybe the neighbors can help me.

Under Xiaomei's adoring and excited gaze, I said proudly, "It seems that I can't hide it today." That's right, I like Yan Jinfeng. ”

"It's hidden!" Xiaomei waved at me again and again, "Master! What a master! Can you tell us your story? ”

"That's a long story, but our relationship in elementary school was so good."

"Master! Really a master! The eye is very precise! It's fast! ”

"Haha, it's a thing of the past. Anyway, what is your relationship with her? ”

"I live in a neighborhood with her, and I can be regarded as neighbors, and we often play together."

"You grew up together?"

"Sort of."

"Can you tell me more about her?"

"That's a long story, but the relationship has been so good! Do you want me to help you? ”

"Haha, okay, I'll look for you when I need it."
