After the start of school, Xia Qiyue only had a few thousand yuan left, Yang Qian paid the tuition fee for the third year of high school to the school in advance, and she also paid the rent for a year, and the money left after her own meal expenses was only enough to pay the art class for three months, Xia Qiyue sat on the seat and thought about whether she could not go to evening self-study in the future, during this time she could go to a part-time job, otherwise there would really be no money to eat, Xia Qiyue was in a daze, Jiang Guoqiang glanced at her several times, this girl who usually studies seriously seems to be affected quite seriously, He has to find a chance to have a good chat with Xia Qiyue, no matter what, at least he has to spend the most critical year of his senior year of high school safely.

After class, Jiang Guoqiang called Xia Qiyue to the office, Xia Qiyue walked in listlessly with his head staggered, Jiang Guoqiang saw that there was no light in her eyes, he still remembered the first time he saw this girl, although she was covered tightly with a hat and mask, but at that time her whole person exuded a vigorous and upward light, Jiang Guoqiang sighed and said with relief: "July, I know that you have been in a bad mood recently, but now you are about to face the college entrance examination, your father talked to me before his death, He said that you are a girl who will get up no matter how you fall, and you always know which is more important, and your father's wish before his death was to hope that you can have a good future, and now the teacher thinks that you can do what your father entrusted, your grades are very good, and I don't want you to play abnormally in the future stage. ”

Xia Qiyue grabbed her clothes and tears fell silently, she raised her hand to wipe it, Jiang Guoqiang took a pack of tissues and pressed it in her palm, and said softly: "If you have any needs, or any difficulties, you can tell the teacher, and the teacher will do his best to help you." ”

The air was quiet for a while, Xia Qiyue took a breath and asked slowly, "Teacher Jiang, can I not come to the evening self-study in the future?" ”

Jiang Guoqiang thought for a while and replied: "I can approve you not to come for the evening self-study in the first half of the year, but you must come in the second half of the year, and you will add classes when the time comes, can you tell the teacher what you are going to do when you ask for leave?" ”

Xia Qiyue was a little hesitant, and after thinking about it again and again, she still didn't tell Jiang Guoqiang, she explained: "It's okay for me to read and write papers at home, and there are still some things to solve at home, so it's not convenient to tell the teacher." ”

After all, taking the time from class to do part-time work, at this age, she doesn't want the teacher to know, let alone the classmates, so she can only say that there are still some things to solve, Jiang Guoqiang thinks about it, after all, there is such a big thing, Xia Qiyue only asks for the evening time to go home to deal with it instead of suspending school and suspending classes, he doesn't say anything anymore, and approves her leave to send her back to the classroom to continue her classes.

Xie Qingya also sent a flying kiss when she saw her, so she was punished by the math teacher, Xia Qiyue looked at her apologetically, and Xie Qingya grimaced indifferently.

"If you don't listen carefully, you just go to the door and stand, it's your third year of high school and you haven't looked like it." The math teacher rolled her eyes and continued with the lesson.

After school, Xie Qingya followed Xia Qiyue and wanted to live with her, Xia Qiyue shook her head and refused her kindness, knowing that she was not at ease when she wanted to squeeze the rental house with a very low safety factor with herself, Xie Qingya went home stupidly, Xia Qiyue turned over all her savings, sat on the edge of the bed and dangled her legs, now the weather is getting hotter, she is glad that she is thin now, last year's clothes can continue to be worn, she opened the collar and looked at her chest, stunting is also good, save money.

From the next day after school, including noon, Xia and July are looking for a job, but they have not found a suitable one, she doesn't eat and sleep well every day, her heart is full of Yang Qian and her own tuition, sometimes she will be silently crying after returning to the rental house, she can't see the future behind her, the whole person is dim, the whole world has lost its light, the despair after hope is powerless, can the salted fish turn over?

Xia Qiyue didn't know, but at least now when there was still a way to go, she didn't want to give up.

Xie Qingya looked at her distressedly, the whole person lost a lot of weight, and her face was also covered with a layer of sick whiteness, Xie Qingya and Qi Yuan talked about these things when they were on the phone, Qi Yuan originally wanted Xia Qiyue to go to his place to work for a few months first, and give her a salary, although it was not much, but at least she could survive until the end of the New Year, but Xia Qiyue knew in her heart that there was no shortage of people there, and it was just that she wanted to pay her salary and it was not easy to say it clearly, Xia Qiyue thought that he was not so familiar with him, so he couldn't owe him such a big favor, so he politely refused.

Qi Yuan sighed and waved his hand.

Xiang Yang didn't know about Xia Qiyue's situation at all, he hadn't been to school for a long time, Jiang Guoqiang sent him an ultimatum, and if he didn't come, he could only go through the withdrawal procedures.

To be honest, Xiang Yang himself doesn't know why he is so obsessed with this high school completion certificate, maybe it's because he can't go to college, but this piece of paper can still give him a thought in his heart.

The long-lost classroom, probably because of the third year of high school, has begun to lose the lively atmosphere in the classroom, many people are depressed, some people are worried about their grades, some people are worried about not being able to give an explanation to their families, and when he entered the classroom, Xia Qiyue was sleeping on the desk, until the class bell remembered, Xia Qiyue was not moved at all.

In his heart, Xia Qiyue had never been so sleepy and tired, he still remembered that Xia Qiyue had to stay in class forcibly when the high fever did not go away, for fear of missing a little important class, but now...

"Bell bell bell"

"Yangge, I haven't seen you for a long time, why have you been busy for so long this time?" He Yuan turned around and asked, his face was surprised and delighted.

Xiang Yang was pulled back to his thoughts by the question of how far away the class bell rang and kept ringing, "There are many things, and it is very annoying, turn around." After speaking, he gently pushed Xia Qiyue and whispered, "It's class." ”

He Yuan turned his head reluctantly, holding his chin with his palm and sighing: "Hey..."

Xia Qiyue was still a little confused, she opened her eyes blankly, wiped the corners of her mouth, fortunately there was no saliva, she saw Xiang Yang stunned for a moment, and then rubbed her cheeks vigorously to stay awake and prepare to listen to the lecture.

"Your scar is going to be rubbed off." Xiang Yang reminded in a low voice.

"Ahh Xia Qiyue hurriedly took out a small mirror from his schoolbag and lowered his head to take a look, fortunately, it was okay.

Xiang Yang was a little distracted at the moment when he met Xia Qiyue's eyes, because he found that the light in her eyes had disappeared, and the light he had seen when he was leaning on the door frame had completely disappeared, dim and exhausted.

He leaned back in the chair and quietly watched Xia Qiyue yawn and the tip of the pen slid away, and he sent a message to He Yuan: "Did something happen to her at school?" ”

"Nope." He Yuan replied quickly, and then he threw over a note.

Xiang Yang opened: There seems to be an accident in her house, but few people know, she doesn't say it, Xie Qingya doesn't say it, you ask, they just talked a few days ago.

Xiang Yang casually put the note into his trouser pocket, glanced at Xia Qiyue's quick editing message and sent it to Jiang Guoqiang: What happened to my family at the same table?

If you don't listen to the class during class time, can't you send it again after class? Jiang Guoqiang replied to the message helplessly, fortunately he didn't have a class this time, otherwise the teacher would not have a good impact on playing with his mobile phone.

Don't ink, just say it. Xiang Yang asked.

Her dad died.

Xiang Yang took the phone and looked at the five words on it in a daze, his chest seemed to be in the oil pot again, the pain was unbearable, his fingertips trembled for a long time and he didn't type any of the words he wanted to say on the keyboard, he put down the phone, his head began to hurt again, and he pressed his temples a few times, and even left a red mark on his fair skin.

When did Yang Qian pass away? How are you spending these days in summer and July?

He didn't know it at all, the sharp pain in his heart was mixed with the unexplained distress, he breathed a long sigh of relief, gently pressed his eyes to prevent tears from gushing out, and after pressing for a while, Xiang Yang took away his palm and gently stroked Xia Qiyue's back, he couldn't say words of comfort, and he felt that she didn't need it now, Xia Qiyue was trying to concentrate on taking notes, and the sudden temperature on her back made her look at the table next door a little blankly, her eyes showed surprise, Xiang Yang didn't make too many moves, He withdrew his hand and whispered, "Listen to the class, I'm noisy with you."

Xia Qiyue didn't answer, and turned his head a little sluggishly to continue writing something in the notebook.

Xiang Yang adjusted his thoughts with difficulty, did Xia Qiyue become like this because of his excessive sadness or because of the tuition fees he will face in the future? He struggled to calm down, thought carefully for a moment, and then made a decision.

After class, Xiang Yang failed to fulfill his promise to stay in the classroom for a good day, he ran directly home to get his bank card, he knew that he would not ask for her directly, but this money must be needed in Xia Qiyue now, Xiang Yang ran back to the school to find Jiang Guoqiang.

Jiang Guoqiang happened to have a class this time, Xiang Yang was a little anxious, thought about it and ran to find Mr. Du first.

Teacher Du hadn't seen him, nor did he know him, and thought it was a student who was going to come over to register for the class, so he waved his hand again and again: "It's overcrowded now, and I won't recruit students." After speaking, I want to turn around and leave, even if the person is not full, the anger on Xiang Yang's body is too heavy, and Mr. Du doesn't want to accept it, such a person has no patience to sit in the studio and study quietly.

"Teacher, don't go, I'm looking for you for something." Xiang Yang hurriedly grabbed him: "Xia Qiyue, she is in your class, right?" ”

Teacher Du paused when he heard Xia Qiyue's name, and looked at him again from beginning to end. Xia Qiyue was his proud protégé, and Teacher Du frowned at him: "I said students, the key for you now is to study hard, don't think about what you don't have." ”

Xiang Yang was speechless, he didn't want to talk about these nonsense anymore, but he had to ask Teacher Du again, he couldn't force him, he had to slow down his nerves and said slowly: "Something happened to her family, and she may not have the money to pay the tuition fee for the painting class in the future, I came to you to do me a favor, and also to help your own students not give up halfway." ”
