Su Er originally gave up the matter of exchange students, but the next day at the dinner table, Lu Yanzhi brought up the old matter again.

"Afrin in Syria is fighting again."

Today, an international Times was placed on the edge of the table, and when Lu Jisheng was eating breakfast, he glanced at it a few times and shook his head again and again. Jiang Shilan poured a cup of hot milk and handed it to Su Er, and then said, "The refugees are all pouring into other countries in Eastern Europe. ”

Su Er had a bad premonition.

"Country X has also added fuel to the fire recently, with civil wars going on, many travelers stranded, and countless casualties." After Lu Yanzhi finished speaking, he thought of something, and turned his head to look at her: "Xiao'er, I remember that the exchange program you want to participate in this time is to go to country X." ”

"What exchange student?" Jiang Shilan looked puzzled.

Su Er replied in a low voice, "School." ”

"No! Didn't you hear the talk of war? And those refugees, although pitiful, but there are also bad guys, you haven't seen those criminal cases in the news! Jiang Shilan immediately objected, and complained indignantly: "What's going on in your school, pick people to be brave and righteous!" ”

Su Er retorted in a low voice: "Country X was quite comfortable before. ”

"I disagree!"

Lu Jisheng comforted his angry beloved wife, and admonished Su Er: "Xiaoer, there are many good places to go if you want to study abroad, you pick one, and your uncle will arrange it for you." ”

"Yes, I'll go with you too."

Lu Yanzhi smiled and participated in the dissuasion, and tried in vain to play the role of a good brother to the end.

It's enough to suffocate at home, if she gets along with Lu Yanzhi alone every day abroad, she can't imagine it, and even feels scared.

"No, I don't want to go abroad." After she finished speaking, she quickly finished drinking her milk, picked up her schoolbag and ran out.

After most of the day's classes at school, Su Er was still absent-minded, sitting by the fence and watching the sky in a daze in physical education class.

Several birds flapped their wings and flew overhead.

She was especially envious, longing for such a free leap, to come and go easily without restraint. She used to love to read Zhang Ailing's novels, including a paragraph in "Jasmine Tablets", saying that Feng Biluo is not a bird in a cage. The bird in the cage, when the cage is opened, will fly out. She is a bird embroidered on a screen—a white bird in a cloud of gold on a gloomy purple satin screen. As the years go by, the feathers are dark, moldy, moth-eaten, and still dead on the screen.

How beautiful and poignant, and the helplessness of being forced in the face of current affairs.

"You didn't submit the application form today." Qiu Yuanyuan handed over a can of Coke, smoothed her skirt and sat down next to her. She opened the tab, forcefully put a few mouthfuls of carbohydrates into her mouth, and let out a long breath: "My mother didn't agree. ”

"It's not safe to watch the news in country X, I can completely understand your mother."

Su Er said: "I have no opinion on being able to leave here and go to the battlefield to charge." ”

Qiu Yuanyuan smiled and bumped her shoulder, "You always have great fearlessness in your heart." ”

Dauntless.

Su Er couldn't help but smile bitterly, if she really had a fearlessness, she would have broken the net with Lu Yanzhi's fish. was full of sorrow in her heart, and reality hit her with a heavy blow, and a basketball flew from nowhere and smashed head-on at her.

"Be careful!"

There was an exclamation in her ears, she was not a martial arts master, she couldn't flash, she was hit by this blow, her center of gravity was unstable and she fell to the side, and her elbows and knees slammed on the steps so painful that she couldn't stand up for a long time.

Qiu Yuanyuan hurriedly went to hug her, and before he could ask if it hurt, someone had already taken the lead to care about the injury.

"Classmate, are you alright?"

Su Er glanced at the broken and bleeding knees, and smiled: "Senior, your ball skills are really good." ”

The boy in the basketball vest stood against the light, scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and then went up to stop Su Er and pick him up. This move shocked Su Er: "What are you doing?" ”

"I'll take you to the infirmary."

"Put me down, I can go."

As if he hadn't heard, he walked toward the infirmary with his long legs in his arms and hugging her.
