Chapter 22: The Mask

Yu Zixiao lay on the table, tears sliding down uncontrollably, and he tried not to let himself cry at all. Teacher Wu waved to a few classmates in the classroom, and everyone went out in understanding, only Lin Yu stopped when she passed in front of Yu Zixiao.

"It's okay, I've been told that a lot by my grandfather before." Lin Yu wanted to stroke Yu Zixiao's fluffy hair with her hand, but she still gave up.

"Didn't you say you didn't know me?" Yu Zixiao felt that his face was burning hot, and his arm tried hard to bury his red face on the table.

"I said we pretended we didn't know each other, we just didn't want to influence each other...... I can't pretend I don't know anything about what happened today. ”

"And what about after that?" Yu Zixiao stopped crying and looked at Lin Yu with red eyes.

“…… Today is a special case...... Lin Yu tilted her head to the side, "In the future, it's still the same......

"What do you mean by not wanting to influence each other?" Yu Zixiao obviously hasn't come out of the quarrel with his father just now, he thinks that Lin Yu wants to pretend not to know him purely because she looks down on him, and she helped herself just now because she looks down on herself.

“…… No wonder your father said you have low emotional intelligence, it's nothing, I have to go. Lin Yu felt that if she continued to talk about it, Yu Zixiao would definitely be angry with herself.

"Don't you just look down on me, afraid that you will lose face if you have a relationship with me?" Such extreme words are not like what he would say, Yu Zixiao gave himself a slap in his heart.

"That's what you think of me."

"Or else? What does that mean by mutual influence??? ”

"I don't think we have much to say."

As soon as Lin Yu stepped out of the classroom door, she was stopped by Yu Zixiao: "Don't go yet, I was not good just now, I'm sorry ......"

"I'm not the kind of person who gives me a piece of candy and I'm fine." Lin Yu shook off Yu Zixiao's hand vigorously.

All this happened to him at the end of the corridor and around the corner saw it.

Maybe it won't be reconciled, Yu Zixiao was sitting alone in the empty classroom, and the sound of cheering for the tug-of-war on the playground came from the window, Yu Zixiao took out the mask from his schoolbag, and the cartoon stickers that Lin Yu put on it looked a little old.

"Do you think you were right about what you just said?" Teacher Wu walked in through the back door of the classroom.

Yu Zixiao hurriedly hid his mask: "I know it's wrong, but I can't control my emotions." ”

"That's exactly what you're going to learn, isn't it because you can't control your emotions because you can't control your emotions?" Teacher Wu sat next to Yu Zixiao, just like he once went to hold a parent-teacher meeting for Yu Zixiao, "Ye Mengning just wants you to study abroad with her, in my opinion, there is nothing wrong with this, but just because of some of your father's words, for example, can this kid do it?" Or something like that, and you'll fall out with them and run away from home for a month. ”

"Don't mention those things...... Yu Zixiao thought to himself, maybe he should have gone abroad with Ye Mengning in the first place, and he would not see this father who had always looked down on him there, and there would be no more annoying things.

"What about Ye Mengning? How is she now? ”

"I heard that the school over there is very good, and she wants to ask you to come with her again, but after graduating from high school." Teacher Wu's tone was more serious than ever, "This time I hope you will think about this matter, there are not many opportunities like this, and only their family can get a place in such a first-class university." ”

"Then I don't want to go."

"Maybe you can get a spot on your own." Teacher Wu patted Yu Zixiao's shoulder, "Go and apologize to Lin Yu." ”

Apologize...... I can't do it. It's not that Yu Zixiao doesn't want to apologize, but he doesn't know how to face Lin Yu.

Lin Yu didn't go to the playground to participate in the activities, this teaching building was terrifyingly quiet, Lin Yu could only hear her own footsteps, and the voice of her heart that she was so aggrieved that she wanted to cry. She opened the door to the music room, where there was a dusty violin.

"Yu Zixiao is a big fool, I've never seen such a stupid person......" Lin Yu locked tightly, she leaned her body against the door, "I will never pay attention to him anymore, anyway, he has a good relationship with Ming Yiyi, didn't Ming Yiyi bring him water when he played basketball that day......

"I'm sorry."

Lin Yu felt the pressure coming from the other side of the door, and the person leaned his back against the door like herself.

Strange sound, that person seemed to be deliberately pinching his throat with his hands, but Lin Yu still felt that it was Yu Zixiao's voice.

"Yu Zixiao?"

"Hmm...... I'm really sorry just now...... I shouldn't have talked like that, I was too impulsive. ”

"It's only been so long since you came to apologize so quickly?" Lin Yu felt that she had been greatly wronged, and at this moment she just wanted to vent all the unhappiness in her heart through this door.

"It's only been less than ten minutes, though...... But, but it seems to me like ten years have passed......"

There are only a few capitalized question marks in Lin Yu's mind at this moment: This is what Yu Zixiao would say? And why does he keep talking with his throat pinched?

Lin Yu suddenly moved her back away from the door, and pulled the doorknob down as quickly as possible, and the person on the other side of the door lay flat on the ground because of the unstable center of gravity.

Ultraman mask and a strangely shaped fat cloak.

He quickly stood up, looking at Lin Yu in front of him and looking a little overwhelmed: "I'm going to go first...... I'm sorry. ”

Syllable! Lin Yu grabbed his hand hard, and the voice echoed in the empty classroom corridor.

"It hurts...", the boy subconsciously said this sentence.

"Aren't you able to speak well? Why did you pinch your throat just now? Lin Yu opened her eyes widely, "Last semester's exam was the same, first made me unhappy and then came to comfort me?" Wearing a mask to keep the mystery alive? This is your flirtatious method? ”

Lin Yu's series of questions made the boy very uneasy, and he pulled Lin Yu's hand away with some effort: "No, definitely not, definitely not like this......"

"Can't you take off your mask and talk to me? Wasn't that what you were in the classroom just now, why do you have to wear a mask to speak now? ”

"......" The boy ran away and disappeared around the corner.

Yu Zixiao struggled with himself for a long time before he was ready to apologize to Lin Yu, and he put on that mask seriously, although he knew that this mask might not be able to cover his identity.

"Liu Yinuo? Why are you here? Seeing that Liu Yinuo was going downstairs, Yu Zixiao hurriedly hid the mask behind him.

"Our classroom is upstairs, and we're going to eat and compete, what about you? The race is about to start, what are you running here? ”

"What game? Basketball? Yu Zixiao didn't know that there was a basketball game, he only heard He Yukun say that there was a tug-of-war game.

"Didn't your homeroom teacher tell you?"

"Not at all." Yu Zixiao now probably guessed why his cousin didn't tell him, "Maybe it's because I have a cold, he didn't tell me, you go to eat first, I still have something." ”

Liu Yinuo made an ok posture and strode down the stairs, and Yu Zixiao took out the mask hidden behind him again: It's up to you later.

As soon as he hadn't taken two steps, Yu Zixiao heard a rush of running.

"Yu Zixiao! Don't run! ”

It's Lin Yu's voice! Why is he calling me? Did you just find me? Impossible! Yu Zixiao hurriedly opened the door of a classroom and hid in.

It wasn't until the footsteps were far away that Yu Zixiao thought about coming out from behind the dusty curtains to breathe, and at this time, he heard the sound of the door locking, and instead of Lin Yu's footsteps, it was the sound of crisp high heels.

"I'm sorry that a student just passed by here."

Yu Zixiao immediately heard that this was the voice of the psychology teacher Gu.

Let's go out now, or she'll think I'm eavesdropping when I'm discovered.

"Where is Wu Haoran good? You just can't let him go? Don't forget, he's the one who made you like this! The voice was so angry that Yu Zixiao quickly retracted his steps.

"I've already told him, it's impossible for you to be with him, it seems that he is dead now, don't always think about him, he came here to teach completely for others to see, isn't it?" Teacher Gu was very excited when he spoke.

Yu Zixiao wanted to lean a little closer to the corner, but accidentally stepped on a pen in the process of moving, and the sound of plastic breaking immediately interrupted Teacher Gu's call, the air seemed to be still at that moment, and Yu Zixiao felt that his breathing and heartbeat were about to stop.

The voice of high heels was approaching him one by one, and Yu Zixiao felt bad in his heart: It's over, it's over, it's dead, I already knew that I wouldn't hide this classroom......

Just when Yu Zixiao thought he was finished, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Teacher Gu? Are you in there? The principal said he asked you to come to the office. ”

A gust of wind blew and blew several old plastic pens on the podium to the ground, and the brittle pen body immediately shattered into several pieces. Teacher Gu stopped walking to the window: "Okay, I'll go over immediately." ”

After Teacher Gu left, Yu Zixiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Huh? What about my mask? ”

With a dull sound, Yu Zixiao noticed that the mask that had been hidden behind him had fallen into the tricycle directly below the window, and the tricycle was full of scrap materials collected from the school.

"Fortunately, it didn't break...... Yu Zixiao saw that the uncle who was riding a tricycle was about to step on the tricycle, "Uncle! Uncle! Don't go! ”

However, the uncle with some back ears didn't hear Yu Zixiao's words, and he was thinking about selling these things and then going to drink a little wine.

Oops! When Yu Zixiao rushed to the door, he found that Lin Yu was blocking his way.

"What are you running?"

"Huh? You say me? ”

"Otherwise, aren't you quite capable of running? Why do you want to scream so loudly and expose your position? Lin Yu had obviously been running for a long time, there were already a lot of beads of sweat on her forehead, and she was panting when she spoke, "What about the mask?" Why don't you wear it? ”

"What are you talking about? What mask? Although he didn't understand the situation in front of him, Yu Zixiao still instinctively had to pretend to be stupid.

"What kind of mask do you say? Where's the hiding? ”

"I don't know!"

Lin Yu saw that Yu Zixiao's face was full of innocent words, and she began to doubt her judgment: "Where were you just now?" Always here? ”

"I was with Liu Yinuo just now, I don't believe you can ask him, and then I overheard that Teacher Gu on the phone, so I hid here. If you don't believe it, there is no mask here. Yu Zixiao slowly moved his body to the window and peeked downstairs, where the old man was leisurely humming a little song and going outside the school.

"Didn't you apologize? Don't admit it now? ”

"yes, I'm going to apologize to you, it's not ...... Didn't find a chance...... Hey, don't go, I have something to say. ”

Lin Yu didn't care what Yu Zixiao was talking about Just walked out by herself, thinking about the masked boy who had been appearing beside her, she fell into deep thought: Who are you?
