Chapter 011: Out of the Situation
Due to An Nian's fall, the auditorium was silent for a moment, even the principal turned his head to look at the two of them, Gu Shen got up from An Nian in a panic, looked at the crowd under the stage in a panic, and ran away without even An Nian pulling and went to the backstage.
An Nian could hear the sound of crows flying by for a while. She hurriedly got up and walked back backstage with a pretended composure. There was a sigh of embarrassment in the audience, until the principal shouted "Quiet! Only then did the auditorium return to calm.
An Nian, who retreated backstage, touched her hot cheeks, and the picture just now always involuntarily appeared in her mind. She adjusted her breathing and tried not to think about it, but as soon as she turned around, she saw Gu Shen.
An Nian lowered her head in a panic and hurriedly walked past Gu Shen.
The competition was carried out in class order, and it seemed that it was the eighth class, but An Nian couldn't find Xiu Yu. Obviously, he came with him, but he couldn't find anyone in the blink of an eye.
"Remove one of the highest scores, remove one of the lowest scores, and the final score of Class 6 is ninety-three points!"
Listening to the broadcast of the host on the stage, An Nian was so anxious that he searched the entire backstage, but he didn't see Xiu Yu's figure, and there were two groups to them. She called Xiu Yu a few times but no one answered, so she ran to the audience to find Meng Zhuoran.
Meng Zhuoran wanted to tease her a few words about what happened just now, but before she could say anything, An Nian asked anxiously, "Do you know where Xiu Yu went?" It's coming to us soon, but he's gone! ”
Meng Zhuoran was also surprised, Xiu Yu was not the kind of person who temporarily dropped the chain, he stood up and looked around, but he didn't see Xiu Yu, until he saw Su Qi greeting him with a hippie smile.
Meng Zhuoran scratched his head, discussed with An Nian, asked An Nian to talk to the host, adjusted the order of their game to the end, and he went to find Xiu Yu. But as soon as An Nian returned to the backstage, he heard the host say:
"If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight? From ancient times to the present, love is an eternal topic, and the following is to invite the students of Class 8 to bring a poetry recitation, "Faith". ”
An Nian's heart was suddenly cold, she was really going to cry stupidly, why didn't you just talk to the host and adjust the order later!
Seeing that no one came up, the host shouted again: "Class 8 students are invited!" ”
The person in charge of the student union walked up to An Nian and urged: "It's your turn, go up quickly!" ”
"But...... My partner hasn't come yet! An Nian explained nervously.
"Then you go up first!"
An Nian saw that this situation was already ready to be sent, so she had to take the folder and walk up.
Because the students in the audience had been waiting for a while, the audience was full of impatient voices, and when they saw An Nian on stage, they quieted down.
After going on stage, An Nian looked at the teachers and classmates in the audience, a little overwhelmed, so nervous that she even forgot that she should walk to the middle of the stage, she just stood in front of the curtain and looked at the audience in a daze, holding the folder motionless, not knowing what to do, her mind was blank.
She had never faced so many people alone, and it could even be said that she had never experienced such a scene before, with so many pairs of eyes staring at her alone.
Perhaps the principal saw An Nian's nervousness and took the lead in applauding her, and for a while, there was a round of applause from the audience.
An Nian remembered that he should step forward and bow, but at this time, his legs didn't seem to obey. Suddenly, a man walked up to her and pulled her to the middle of the stage.
Gu Shen pulled her to the front of the stage, and there was another commotion in the audience.
But Gu Shen turned a deaf ear, he bowed with An Nian, took the folder, opened the manuscript inside, motioned for music to play in the background, and all the actions went smoothly.
Since there was only one manuscript, Gu Shen lifted the clip between the two of them and put it at a suitable height. Only a spotlight was left above their heads on the stage, and the entire auditorium was darkened.
An Nian is still making up in his head: why did he come up? Is this to save the day? Is it because of me? Still is......
Seeing that she was still in a daze, Gu Shen reminded in a low voice: "You start first." ”
An Nian hurriedly retracted her thoughts, looked at the manuscript with Gu Shen, and waited for the point where the background music was put to the beginning, she glanced at Gu Shen with slanted eyes, quickly lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.
"I believe that the essence of love is like the simplicity and tenderness of life." Gu Shen's voice followed closely, "The essence of love is like the simplicity and tenderness of life. ”
"I believe ......"
During the recitation, An Nian always wanted to unconsciously turn his head to look at Gu Shen, his voice was very rich, compared with Xiu Yu's voice, there was a lack of gentleness in his voice, but a trace of firmness.
How An Nian hopes that they can finally understand each other as written in the poem.
may be because the form of the first few classes is too simple, or it may be that the content of the previous classes is too uniform, An Nian and Gu Shen's poem actually got a score of ninety.
An Nian breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally "survived the catastrophe", and when he arrived in the background, Gu Shen looked at An Nian proudly, "How about it, my rescue is timely enough!" ”
An Nian was still very entangled, how to talk to Gu Shen, after all, the two of them seemed to have not communicated face-to-face for a long time.
However, listening to Gu Shen's tone, it seemed that he had returned to the past, and they all tacitly shut up and did not mention the days when they looked at each other coldly.
She nodded appreciatively to Gu Shen, "Thank you......." However, before he could finish saying a thank you, Gu Shen was called away by Lu Yueran, An Nian stood in place in frustration, looking at Gu Shen's back on the stage, "Gu Shen, thank you!" ”
Gu Shen and Lu Yueran's recitations were very exciting, and the audience applauded continuously.
In the end, some teachers questioned why Gu Shen appeared in class 8 and then in class 9, Gu Shen jokingly said: "Because we are brother classes!" The teacher in the audience didn't ask any more questions.
The final result of the competition was not surprising, with the first place in the ninth class. And the eighth class also won the third place because of Gu Shen's rescue, and the second place is the sixth class, and one of the reciters is Chen Jin, the first in the grade.
In the final award-winning session, An Nian was fortunate to witness the true face of Chen Jin, the first in the grade, a very ordinary boy, it can be said that the kind that is unrecognizable at a glance in the crowd, black and thin, because his grades are too outstanding, An Nian couldn't help but take a few more looks.
After the game, An Nian still didn't find Xiu Yu, and she didn't answer a few phone calls, she knew that something must have happened to Xiu Yu. In the end, I learned from the mouth of the squad leader that something happened to Xiu Yu's family, and his mother took him away.
Out of the auditorium, Meng Zhuoran began to think in pieces, "Xiu Yu is too unrighteous, I don't know how to reply after making so many calls!" ”
Xia Chufan sighed, "Maybe things are really in a hurry!" That's why I didn't have time to say hello to us. ”
An Nian also sighed and did not speak. The three of them stood at the door of the auditorium like this, watching the flow of people rushing out of the door.
At this time, a joking voice came from behind him, "What are you doing?" Penalty station! ”
It was Su Qi and Gu Shen, as well as Lu Yueran.
During the time when An Nian and Gu Shen snubbed each other, An Nian also subconsciously avoided Lu Yueran, and now that he is goodbye, there is really an indescribable embarrassment.
However, during that time, An Nian could always know some things about Gu Shen and Lu Yueran from Su Qi's mouth, although the confession failed, Lu Yueran did not give up, it is said that she and Gu Shen became the same table.
Su Qi and Meng Zhuoran pinched each other as soon as they met, and they had long been accustomed to their way of communication, and everyone didn't bother to pay attention to them.
Gu Shen seemed to be very happy, walked up to An Nian's side, and asked An Nian half-jokingly: "I have helped you like this, how can you thank me!" ”
An Nian was still thinking about Xiu Yu, but when Gu Shen asked him like this, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Ah, you...... How do you want me to thank you! ”
Gu Shen looked at An Nian's somewhat confused eyes, and reached out to touch her hair, "Haha, if you want to thank me, finish that physics exercise!" ”
Xia Chufan touched An Nian, raised his eyebrows, and smiled at her gloatingly.
An Nian felt that his eyes were a little sour, Gu Shen hadn't said such things to himself for a long time, but fortunately, from now on, they could be the same as before, and he would tutor himself to do exercises every day.
An Nian rubbed her nose and nodded.
Lu Yueran looked at Gu Shen and An Nian, her breathing tightened, but she quickly calmed down. She smiled and proposed, "Gu Shen, let's go rock climbing on Saturday!" ”
Gu Shen was a little hesitant, during this time, Lu Yueran was too "enthusiastic" about him, although she rejected her, she didn't seem to feel lost, but had a more and more frustrated and courageous look, and began to try her best to get close to herself.
He wanted to refuse, but he heard Su Qi, who was pinching Meng Zhuoran, stop, and said with anticipation: "Okay, okay, I'll go with Lao Gu." An Nian, you and Lao Meng should go too! ”
Su Qi completely ignored Lu Yueran's ugly face.
"Who's going to go with you!" Meng Zhuoran retorted.
"Hehe, if you don't go, An Nian and Xia Chufan will definitely go, right?" Su Qi cast an expectant look at An Nian.
An Nian looked at Gu Shen, and Su Qi said again: "Old Gu will go, you guys should come together!" More people is fun, isn't it? Lu Yueran? ”
Lu Yueran saw that Su Qidu was like this, so he had to follow his words and said, "Yes, An Nian, let's go together!" ”
Finally, An Nian looked at Gu Shen and nodded.
After being busy with the recitation competition, An Nian breathed a sigh of relief, she and Gu Shen also recovered as before, Gu Shen still helped her tutor every day, these days, she is in a good mood.
However, three days have passed since Tuesday's recitation competition, and Xiu Yu still hasn't come back, and she still hasn't replied to her call.
After school, An Nian sat in his seat in a daze. "Tomorrow is Saturday, Xiu Yu doesn't plan to come back yet!" Meng Zhuoran asked as he packed his things.
An Nian glanced at Meng Zhuoran, and was dejected: "His phone can't be reached until now." ”
Meng Zhuoran suddenly raised his head, "An Nian, aren't you fellow countrymen with Xiu Yu?" Why don't we go see him! ”
An Nian thought for a moment, "It's okay, I'm just going home to take a look." ”
The two of them happily decided in this way, and Xia Chufan on the side interrupted: "Have you completely forgotten about the rock climbing tomorrow!" ”
An Nian and Meng Zhuoran glanced at each other, "Uh......"
Meng Zhuoran thought for a moment, "Let's go and see Xiu Yu!" ”
An Nian thought that it was Lu Yueran's proposal, and she didn't have much interest, so she said, "Let's go and see Xiu Yu!" As for rock climbing, it's next time! ”
Xia Chufan saw that An Nian also agreed, and didn't say anything more.
The three of them discussed the itinerary and went back to the dormitory.
Gu Shen was very happy, he didn't have an idea of pestering himself during this time, he always felt empty around him.
An Nian was willing to talk to him today, he inexplicably had a feeling of lightness of a stone falling to the ground, and he was even looking forward to going out with An Nian.
At night, Gu Shen sent a message to An Nian while lying on the bed, telling her what to prepare for rock climbing, but she didn't expect An Nian to go, or because of Xiu Yu.
Gu Shen felt a sense of loss in his heart, and the picture of Xiu Yu and An Nian fighting unconsciously appeared in his mind.
Here, after An Nian finished replying to Gu Shen's message, he was about to go to sleep when his mobile phone rang, and it turned out to be Xiu Yu's phone.
