When he first entered the third year of high school, Wu Yueming didn't feel any pressure, he only felt that he was one step closer to happiness. After the first night of self-study, on the bridge, Wu Yueming and Lei Ruochen walked side by side again. Xu Tingjuan and Tang Xiaogang were two hundred meters behind, and they had reconciled as before. Under the moonlight, this time Wu Yueming saw Lei Ruochen's face instead of his back.

The third year of high school means that Lei Ruochen is closer to the university, and her ideal university is Fudan University. This ideal is not too challenging for her. But for Wu Yueming, it is huge, he decided to return to the time of the first famous residence after Lei Ruochen's birthday, no longer painting and reading philosophy books, he wants to improve his English scores during these times, and by the way, strengthen his Chinese scores.

The time came to the twelfth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, and this day is sacred to Wu Yueming, because this day is Lei Ruochen's birthday. It's a bit of a shame that it wasn't Sunday, it was Friday. The first time Wu Yueming learned about this sacred day was on Friday, in the sixth grade of elementary school.

"Ruochen, today is a holy day, I want you to open up some privileges to me, okay?" After the evening self-study, Wu Yueming asked, walking on the bridge of pity.

"Tell me, what privileges do you want?" Lei Ruochen stopped and looked into Wu Yueming's eyes.

"I want to call you 'Chen'er', is that okay? "Wu Yueming has heard her parents and grandparents call her 'Chen'er', and her friends call her 'Ruochen'.

"That's it, is there anything else?"

"There's another one, Chen'er." Wu Yueming stretched out his right hand to hold Lei Ruochen's left hand, then gently shook it and said, "I want to hold your hand and walk through this bridge."

When Wu Yueming held her hand, a trace of surprise flashed in Lei Ruochen's eyes, but she didn't pull out her left hand, she just looked at Wu Yueming blankly, neither saying no, no, no. At that moment, Wu Yueming had the urge to kiss Lei Ruochen, kiss the deep dimples and long eyelashes, but Wu Yueming controlled his thoughts, this move was still too extravagant now.

Wu Yueming took Lei Ruochen's hand and walked slowly. He walked very slowly, very slowly. Neither of them spoke, just walked slowly. Wu Yueming felt the temperature of Lei Ruochen's palm, as well as the softness of his hand. Finally, they crossed the Bridge of Pity, Wu Yueming did not let go of Lei Ruochen's left hand, Lei Ruochen seemed to have forgotten to withdraw his left hand, and when they arrived at the gate of the community, they did not stop waiting for Xu Tingjuan and Tang Xiaogang.

The two stopped under the building where they just lived, "Chen'er, can you wait for me for two minutes?" Wu Yueming finally said that this was the third time he had exhaled the word "Chen'er" from his mouth, but he had already felt that he had said it three hundred, three thousand, thirty thousand, or even three hundred million times, so familiar and cordial, in fact, he had not practiced the feeling of the word "Chen'er" coming out of his mouth beforehand.

Lei Ruochen still didn't speak, just nodded lightly. Not far away, the light of the solar street lamp and the moonlight poured on Lei Ruochen's face, which looked so soft. Wu Yueming couldn't tell whether this softness was the nature of Lei Ruochen's face itself, or whether it came from the moonlight or the street lamp. Why hadn't he found out before? By the way, he had never looked at Lei Ruochen's face for a long time at today's distance. Wu Yueming felt that he was drunk, he had never been drunk, if this was the feeling of being drunk, he would rather get drunk every day. No, no, no, it wasn't a drunken feeling, but he couldn't find a better word than 'drunk' to describe how he felt at this moment.

Wu Yueming wanted to kiss Lei Ruochen again, this thought was as strong as a volcanic eruption, and his will collapsed in an instant. So, he lowered his head and gently touched Lei Ruochen's lips, like a dragonfly dotting water.

Wu Yueming didn't know how he opened the two doors, an aluminum alloy outer door, a wooden security door, when he ran to the third floor and walked to the Gangming Residence, he felt that his whole body was hot, as if he felt the liquid in his veins rushing like the mouth of the Yangtze River.

When Wu Yueming appeared in front of her with the painting given to Lei Ruochen, he had the feeling that he would definitely come to the next century, but in fact, only two minutes had passed.

"Chen'er, this is my birthday present, happy birthday!" Wu Yueming's voice trembled a little.

"Thank you" Lei Ruochen took the painting, and then quickly gave Wu Yueming a hug, as if it hadn't happened, but in fact it happened, because Wu Yueming found himself staying in place for a few minutes, unable to move no matter what, and unable to take a step forward with his legs. He stayed where he was like this and smiled at Lei Ruochen when he opened the aluminum alloy door outside, and he went to Lei Ruochen to open the wooden security door inside. I saw that the light on the third floor of Lei Ruochen's house was on.

"Yue, what are you doing here? Everyone else is going to fall asleep. Tang Xiaogang slapped Wu Yueming's right shoulder hard.

"No, didn't do it, wait for you kid!" Tang Xiaogang's heavy slap seemed to relieve Wu Yueming's acupoint.

Then, he asked Tang Xiaogang to open the door. When he came to Gangmingju, Wu Yueming leaned over and fell on the bed, and he felt that all the energy in his body was exhausted.

"Xiao Gang, bring me a bottle of pure milk." Wu Yueming shouted, he urgently needed to replenish his energy.

The next day, Wu Yueming's name for Lei Ruochen became the original "Ruochen". During the morning self-study in English, Lei Ruochen wrote a small note and threw it on Wu Yueming's desk, which read: "Yueming, I like the gift you gave me yesterday, but I have a selfish request, I don't know if you can agree?" The painting that Wu Yueming gave to Lei Ruochen was called "Tenderness on the Bridge of Pity", which depicted Lei Ruochen leaning on the carved railing of the Bridge of Pity, looking at the moonlight.

"No matter what you ask, I will agree unconditionally, except for one."

"I am the only person I want to paint. Can you say yes? Also, what's the only condition for that? This Lei Ruochen handed over the note and content to Wu Yueming again

The content of Wu Yueming's note was: "Chen'er, I agree to your request unconditionally, and the only condition is to leave you." Wu Yueming also deliberately put emphasis on the words "leave you" when he left.

"It's not that yesterday only existed last night, why do you call me 'Chen'er' again." When Lei Ruochen handed over the note, he gently tapped Wu Yueming's head a few times with the tip of a water-based pen.

"Today, I still breathe out 'Ruochen', and 'Chen'er' is written on paper, one is spoken and the other is written, so I am not asking for the privilege to be extended to this day." Wu Yueming almost laughed out loud in his heart because of his strong words.

Lei Ruochen didn't write another note, but turned around and glared at Wu Yueming fiercely.

That weekend, No. 1 and No. 2 Middle Schools jointly held the first joint examination for the third year of high school, and the two schools used the same set of test papers. The JAE is of great significance, and according to the JAE rankings, you can get a rough idea of what level of university you can get into. After the scores came out, Lei Ruochen ranked eighth in the overall score of the two schools, while Wu Yueming ranked 53rd. According to this ranking, Lei Ruochen should have no problem being admitted to Fudan University, and Wu Yueming is not a problem in taking the university exam, but there is still a gap to enter Fudan.

However, this is the ranking of the first joint entrance examination, and there will be a second joint entrance examination, a third time, and a fourth time, which is more important for the next joint entrance examination ranking. At this time, Wu Yueming realized for the first time that the ranking of grades was very important, and before, Wu Yueming had never felt that the ranking was important. He knew that he was still some distance away from Lei Ruochen, but he believed that in the next joint entrance examination, the gap would continue to narrow.

"Xu Tingjuan said that her ideal university is Fudan, what about Lei Ruochen?" Tang Xiaogang lay on the bed and said to Wu Yueming.

"It's also Fudan University"

"As for me, it is impossible for me to be admitted to Fudan University, my goal is to try to score as high as possible, and I can be in the same city as Xu Tingjuan. However, there is hope for you to work harder, but I don't have that hope at all. Tang Xiaogang pulled his hair and said.

"Alas!" Wu Yueming sighed lightly and said, "It's not easy to get into Fudan, maybe we are still in the same school, in fact, in a certain aspect, you guys and Lei Ruochen are equally important." If one day, you both fall into the water at the same time, I really don't know who to save first. ”

Tang Xiaogang laughed dryly twice and said, "If there is really such a day, you still save Lei Ruochen first, I will swim." However, if you and Xu Tingjuan fall into the water at the same time, it really makes it difficult for me, because neither of you can swim. Maybe I'll save you kid first, after all, we've known each other for too long. ”

"Don't do this, you still have to save Xu Tingjuan first." Wu Yueming smiled.

"Well, I wish it wouldn't come one day." Tang Xiaogang picked up his mobile phone and began to chat with Xu Tingjuan on QQ. Wu Yueming began to do the English homework assigned to him by Lei Ruochen, and Lei Ruochen will check it early tomorrow morning.

"Sad!" Tang Xiaogang uttered such a sentence.

"What's wrong?" Wu Yueming asked without raising his head.

"I asked Xu Tingjuan just now, if I fell into the water at the same time as Lei Ruochen, who else would she save first? She said without hesitation that she would save Lei Ruochen first. ”

"This is self-inflicted, and I still have to ask even if I know the result."

"I thought a miracle would happen, but it didn't." Tang Xiaogang put down his phone, picked up his Walkman, and decided to watch a movie to ease his sadness.
