Chapter 18: One in the South, One in the North
High school life continued uneventfully, and less than a month after the start of school, Su Wen was keenly aware of the increasing difficulty of high school courses, especially her weak mathematics, physics and chemistry links. Su Wen thinks that his IQ is not high enough, but fortunately, he is diligent enough, and his past knowledge accumulation is solid enough, although it is a little difficult to learn, it is not tricky.
The more time you spend reading books and doing problems, the less time you have to think about interpersonal interactions.
Su Wen's new life in high school is not as exciting as she expected, and the introversion and loneliness engraved into her bones will eventually surface no matter how hidden they are, and for her, wanting to meet a lot of friends is just a fantasy. Fortunately, Su Wen has already let go of those vain expectations, and the classmates around him who have been in contact with him have gradually become acquainted, and there are one or two people who can be called "friends".
Perhaps the biggest change is that she has made a boy friend, which Su Wen has never experienced before. In the past, Su Wen rarely had contact with boys, but now with Song Yu, a boy, he walks normally, jokes normally, and plays normally...... Everything seemed to be in perfect harmony, with no half-twists or distances. This made Su Wen feel amazing, I don't know if it was because his interpersonal skills had improved, or simply because of Song Yu's easy-going personality.
There is also Zhang Xiaoli, the more Su Wen comes into contact with this simple girl, the more she likes her innocence and cuteness. The girls from wealthy families in big cities are not all people like Liang Yunyi who show a sense of superiority wherever they go, but more approachable, kind and lovely girls like Zhang Xiaoli.
If it weren't for their friends, Su Wen would definitely have no sense of existence in the new class. used to have outstanding academic performance in a small county, but now when she arrives in Bode's top class, she is naturally squeezed out by a group of proud figures, and her academic performance can no longer bring her any sense of existence.
In any case, Su Wen is deeply satisfied with the current situation, although the days are dull, there are one or two friends to accompany him, focusing on improving himself academically, Su Wen is very full and happy.
Previously, Su Wen had been worried about the state of his friend Xu Leqiu, but a week ago, Xu Leqiu took the initiative to change to the ordinary class, and finally bid farewell to the high-speed rotation learning progress of the first top class, and he could adapt to the learning of normal people in the ordinary class.
Bidding farewell to the top class with many outstanding talents and others can't squeeze their heads, Xu Leqiu is reluctant to give up, for her future development, she has to endure the pain to enter the ordinary class, determined to study hard from scratch.
Seeing the relaxed smile on Xu Leqiu's face gradually appearing, Su Wen was really relieved.
I still remember that Sunday night, in order to accompany Xu Leqiu to find the head teacher of her class to deal with the transfer of classes, she had the courage to study on her own for the first time, walked to the door of the first class in a grand manner, took Xu Leqiu's hand and ran down the stairs like crazy.
The classroom of the first year of high school students was on the fourth floor, and the two girls were as excited as if they had skipped class for the first time in their lives, their cheeks were red from running wildly, and they ran downstairs, and the girls laughed and gasped. Su Wen is still holding Xu Leqiu's hand, just like their childhood "conjoined babies".
At night, under the light of the street lamp, their faces were a little blurred, but their two pairs of eyes were as bright as stars, as if there were stars twinkling in them.
Friends are, I will always be there for you, silently. The same wind and rain, the same joys and sorrows.
Su Wen and Xu Leqiu held hands and walked through the campus in the night, from the teaching building to the teacher's office building, obviously only separated by a large playground, but they walked extremely slowly. Autumn insects chirp at night, and street lamps emitting white light stand all over the campus. The figures of the two hit the concrete floor under the illumination of the street lamp, one intertwined, the other lively parallel.
It seems that it has been a long, long time since I have held each other's hands and walked quietly, and I walked on the campus path under the night light.
With Su Wen accompanying Xu Leqiu, Xu Leqiu was more confident to face the complicated eyes of the class teacher.
Yes, her academic performance is indeed poor, she is not compatible with the top class of the first class, she is even far from the unified recruitment line of the Bode high school entrance examination, and her father did force her into Bode through shady means, these are all facts. But it is also true that she wants to start studying hard again, and she will go to the regular class to study hard and prove herself there.
The transfer procedure was much simpler because Leqiu's father had greeted her before, and she had met the head teacher of Class 19, a middle-aged woman with a kind face, who said that Xu Leqiu could move her textbooks and school supplies into the new class that night, and she had already greeted the head teacher of Class 19.
Before the first evening self-study ended, Su Wen and Xu Leqiu simply skipped the entire evening self-study and walked slowly on the playground.
The two hearts fluttered, and they looked at the courtyard shape of Bode Middle School, where each floor between the south and north buildings was connected to each other.
"In the future, we will look at each other from afar across the overpass!" Su Wen smiled lightly.
"We'll meet on the flyover then." Xu Leqiu winked happily at Su Wen.
Classes 1 to 10 are in the south building, and classes 11 to 19 are in the north building, one in the south and the other in the north, separated by a long bridge corridor.
Taking advantage of the end of the first evening self-study, Su Wen entered the first class with Xu Leqiu. Su Wen was apprehensive, and unfamiliar faces walked by him.
In a hurry, Su Wen actually caught a glimpse of the delicate face of the iceberg boy Ding Xinian, who was as delicate as a comic, and the boy's picturesque eyebrows and eyes were a little transparent under the incandescent light. He looked at Su Wen with a cold face, and seemed to recognize her as the girl who happened to meet him and Song Yu on the street that day, and cried with tears on her face because she was lost.
Su Wen lowered his head shyly, just in time to miss the encounter with another gaze in the classroom.
Su Wen beat the drum in his heart and helped Xu Leqiu pick up a textbook. Xu Leqiu hurriedly said goodbye to a class of classmates he knew, walked across the long overpass with Su Wen to the North District Teaching Building, and when he found Class 19 to meet with the class leader of Class 19, the class bell rang just right.
"Xiaowen, you go back first, I can do it by myself here." Xu Leqiu smiled gratefully at Su Wen.
Walking back to the south area through the overpass, Su Wen's heart became more and more refreshed, and when he quickly returned to his seat from the back door of the classroom, Su Wen was mentally prepared to face the possible punishment.
Staring at the unopened textbook and snickering, suddenly there was a sound of the pen tapping on the desktop in front of me.
"Where did you go to the last self-study?" The boy asked in a low voice.
"If you want to remember your name, remember it." Su Wen smiled.
The boy was stunned, "You're so happy after skipping class?" Beware of the old class asking you questions. ”
"It's okay." Su Wen paused and said with a smile, "My friend has transferred to the regular class. I'm happy for my friend. ”
Song Yu's eyes widened in confusion, "Is that the very beautiful friend in your class?" ”
Su Wen pursed his lips, wondering why this prefix was so long, "Yes." ”
"How did you transfer from the top class to the regular class? Others can't get in if they break their heads. ”
"It's a personal choice." Su Wen smiled with relief, "I also want to go to the ordinary class, the top class is really too perverted!" ”
"Cut, will you give you a chance?" The boy couldn't help but scold.
"I ......" the girl was completely speechless and couldn't help but pout, "Okay, I'm doing my homework." ”
"I'll spare you this time, it just so happens that I'm in charge on Monday." The boy tapped the notepad of the shift with a pen, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and there was some pampering in his eyes.
Pampering? Su Wen glanced at the back of the head of the boy in the front seat, who had turned his back to her, and hurriedly erased his cranky thoughts.
It's nice to have a friend who is the class leader. For the first time in his life, Su Wen enjoyed different treatment because his friend was a class cadre, and he smirked with satisfaction in his seat.
September has come to an end, and the hot summer is gradually coming to an end, which is the season of autumn. Like most of East China, the sultry daytime atmosphere of G-province makes people feel like they are back in the middle of summer, and when the sun sets and night falls, the cool evening breeze silently hits, and people begin to put on their coats to resist the cold.
When the summer turns to the cold, the students of Bode Middle School who still wear sportswear school uniforms and short-sleeved T-shirts during the day unconsciously put on blue and white sports coats at night, and only a few students who are not afraid of the cold of autumn nights wearing short-sleeved T-shirts are shuttling through the night breeze with their bare arms.
Su Wen washed his hair in the bathroom of the dormitory, and watched as the clock hour hand gradually coincided with the number "7" written on it, and the hour and minute hands were at an angle of about 60 degrees to the northwest. Su Wen didn't have time to dry his hair carefully, grabbed his school uniform jacket and hurried to the teaching building.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the student apartments named Yiyuan show the luxury of European-style architecture under the white light of the night light. Hurriedly shuttling through the wide roads on both sides of the apartment, Su Wen couldn't figure out why the European-style student apartment of Bode Middle School had such a poetic title with a very Chinese style, could it be that this is also the tradition of Bode Middle School's "Chinese and Western" tradition?
It took nearly a month for Su Wencai, who has always been a road idiot, to barely figure out the basic landmarks of the campus of Bode Middle School, which is as large as a university campus. From the student apartment to the teaching building, there is a small distance between half of the campus, except for the girl with long hair running all the way on the road, there is no one on the road, and the light of the street lamp illuminates the girl's figure flickering.
Su Wen suddenly remembered the scene of cleaning the teacher's office building with the girls in the same class during the third year of junior high school, and he went up to the third floor to clean the corridor alone, and returned to the first floor to find that the girls in his class were missing one by one. At that time, she was also running alone on the deserted campus path.
Panting all the way, his steps gradually relaxed as he approached the huge school building like a monster and watched its windows cast the bright light of incandescent lights.
The top class is really the top class, and the evening self-study has not yet begun, and the vast majority of students are already fighting hard at the table and the sea of questions. Casually looking around the classroom, Su Wen grabbed the school uniform jacket and walked calmly to his place.
Inadvertently, she stared at someone in her eyes, and the girl sat down blankly, raised her head and looked straight into each other's eyes.
"What's wrong?"
