Chapter 10: Final Commendation
Xiaoya patted the dust on her body, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then packed her schoolbag and walked outside the school. The grievances and sadness that she had never felt before, like a piece of red-hot iron, were imprinted in the bottom of her heart, making her tremble with pain.
"Xiaoya! ……”
Suddenly, she heard someone calling her name, Xiao Ya looked up, and saw Xiao Zoyi standing not far in front of her on a tree trunk. His eyes were as melancholy as the blue that hung upside down on the canopy, so deep and so far away......
Xiao Zuo walked over, stood in front of her and said, "Xiao Ya! It's really not bullying you. ”
"No... No! Xiao Ya shook her head and took a step back, then quickly hid her hands in her pockets. Because she was afraid of being discovered by Xiao Zuo, the wound on her hand that had just been cut.
Xiao Zuo took a step closer, and the distance between the two was suddenly so close that even the sound of each other's breathing could be heard clearly. Xiao Ya put a lot of concentration and looked up at him to ensure that she did not retreat in embarrassment.
Xiao Zuo stared at her deeply, and in her amber pupils, countless emotions flashed in a flash, and finally only froze into a piece of sadness. He stared at Xiao Ya, sighed and said, "Xiao Ya! I'm sorry! Please give me a little more time. With that, he turned and left.
As soon as Xiao Zuo left, Xiao Ya was like a fish back in the water, and she breathed hard for a few breaths before she calmed down her emotions. She looked at Xiao Zuo, who was getting farther and farther away from her, didn't say anything, just lowered her head and walked silently outside the school.
.
As soon as she walked out of the school gate, Xiaoya met Yuxin and Duoduo waiting at the door. As soon as the two saw her come out, they hurriedly greeted her and asked, "Xiaoya!" What the hell happened to you and Xiao Zuo? When we met him just now, he left without saying a word. ”
When Xiao Ya heard this, the look in her eyes darkened, and she shook her head and said, "It's nothing!" He just told me to give him a little more time. ”
"Give him a little more time? What do you mean? Duoduo pursed her lips disdainfully and said, "Melancholy and indecisive, not like a man at all." ”
"Duoduo!" Xiao Ya glanced at her nonchalantly. Yuxin also helped Xiaoya and scolded Duoduo.
"Alright! All right! It's all at this time, and I'm still thinking about protecting him, and sure enough, the girl is outward! Duoduo walked over to comfort her. His eyes suddenly stayed on Xiaoya, a faint stain, and he couldn't take his eyes off.
"Xiaoya! Be honest! Did Xiao Zuo bully you? Duoduo asked, pointing to the dirt. When Yuxin heard this, she also turned her head to look at Xiaoya.
"Nope! No! Xiaoya shook her head and took a step back, looking hesitant. It's just that Duoduo's eyes are so sharp that she can't take her eyes off. Halfway through, she announced the answer: "It's a child's innocence." ”
"I knew it was her! I'm going to settle accounts with her. Duoduo shouted angrily, and as soon as she turned around and was about to leave, she was stopped by Xiaoya and Yuxin together.
"Duoduo! Don't be impulsive! Yuxin persuaded.
Xiaoya also persuaded on the side: "Duoduo! No matter how innocent she is, she is also Xiao Zuo's sister! For Xiao Zuo's sake, forget it this time! ”
Duoduo glanced at her, and said with some hatred: "Xiaoya! If you are so kind, you will suffer a big loss! ”
Hearing this, Xiaoya sighed and fell silent. That afternoon, the three of them sat on a bench in the street, looking at the sky above them, like a group of homeless children. It wasn't until dusk approached that they boarded a bus and rushed home in the darkness of night.
.
A few days after the start of the school year, the school held a final commendation meeting. To put it in layman's terms, it is a catwalk conference for academic tyrants to take the stage. Under the attention of the teachers and students of the whole school, dozens of top students took the stage one after another to receive their honors.
On the large playground where the crowd was crowded and the black pressure was like a vegetable field, Yuxin sat down under the shouts of several girls in the class, only to find that Su Mu was sitting next to her. The two of them turned their heads to look at each other, and their cheeks couldn't help but flush.
A few girls next to her were immediately happy when they saw her embarrassment. They all covered their mouths and laughed evilly, gossiping, and saying everything.
"Yuxin! This feng shui treasure land, but my sister took a lot of effort to occupy it, how about it? Like it or not? ”
"Yuxin! In order to seize this position, our sisters sacrificed all their youth at this moment! Watching the handsome guys in the next class, passing by one by one, we didn't even have a chance to feast our eyes. What a loss! ”
"That's right! Yuxin! Be kind, be kind, and be gracious! Go ahead! How can we repay our ......?"
“……”
A few girls were messy with foul language, and Yuxin was ashamed and angry when they heard it. However, they did help themselves this time, Yuxin just had to shut up and pretend to be dumb and admit it. After telling them to go to KFC after school to eat a meal, a few girls reluctantly let her go.
After frolicking for a while, they sat down in turn with their lips pouted under the reprimand of the disciplinary committee. It's just that the eyes of several people all fell on Yu Xin, and she was as uncomfortable as a needle.
However, Su Mu didn't care too much about the thoughts of a few girls, and asked her, "Yuxin!" Xiaoya, what's going on with them these days? All of them were preoccupied and silent. It looks like a stranger. ”
What happens between boys and girls can not be explained in a word. Yuxin didn't explain too much to him, just told him to study hard and not think too much. Su Muqing: "Hmm! He snorted, then looked with her at the podium.
.
Several school leaders spoke into the microphone and spoke for half an hour of opening remarks, and when everyone was dazed and drowsy, they announced the official start of the commendation meeting. There was a burst of cheers from the audience, and everyone wanted to laugh.
The first thing to take the stage was the speeches of the representatives of each grade. It's just that when everyone saw that it was the innocence of the first year of high school, the audience fell silent and silent. The vast majority of people are confused, and they don't know what this innocence is sacred. However, after the school leaders succinctly introduced the origin of innocence, the teachers and students in the audience were in an uproar. And Yuxin, who understands the innocence of the child, has long had no good impression of her.
As soon as Tong Zhenzhen stepped onto the rostrum, the boys who only looked at their appearances in the audience muttered. All kinds of "Innocence! I'm sticking with you! Innocence! I love you! ......" rumors flew all over the sky, and Yuxin pouted when she heard it. It wasn't until the vice-principal slapped the lectern vigorously that the boys honestly stopped.
Compared with the innocent spring breeze. Xiaoya's face became gloomy as soon as she stepped onto the rostrum. Across the crowd, Yuxin saw Xiaoya's sad expression, like a fluttering firefly lost in the dark night and no one cared about.
When everyone's eyes were focused on the rostrum, Yu Xin stretched out her leg and kicked Su Mu, making him grin in pain. Su Mu covered the sore spot, turned his head to look at Yu Xin, and asked inexplicably, "What are you doing?" ”。 Yu Xin smiled at him and quickly handed over a blank piece of paper.
Su Mu took the paper and looked at it, it read: "Su Mu! How many do you think you can get in the whole grade? ”。 He gave a quick glance and replied with two words: "Top three!" ", and then handed it to Yu Xin.
Yuxin took it and took a look, and wrote below: "I don't believe it! Then he handed it to Su Mu. When the student representative spoke on the stage, Yuxin and Su Mu were off the field, constantly passing notes. The two of them frowned, and they couldn't say that you were strong and affectionate. It wasn't until the vice principal was on the stage and snorted coldly like thunder on the ground that they were so frightened that they stopped their small movements.
"That's it! Now we are announcing the winners for each grade group. If you read your name, please come to the stage to receive the award! Everyone should try to be on par with them. After clearing his throat, the vice principal began to read: "The winners of the first year of high school are: first place: Xu Mubai of high school one (2) class, second place: Liu Xiaoqian of high school one (5) class, and third place: Su Mu ...... of high school one (4) class."
The overall score ranking of this final exam, the top three have hardly changed. However, the fluctuation variables of the latter are quite large. used to be in the top ten, and was squeezed down by someone. The most surprising thing is that Tang Xiaoyan, who used to hang at the end, rushed to the eighth this time. The first (4th) class of high school once again has three top ten seeded players in the whole grade, and Teacher Cui in their class is so happy that they can't keep their mouths shut.
And Old Man Zhao squeezed into the top ten because of a classmate in the class, and the tight wrinkles on his face were all stretched out this time. Coupled with the strong entry of innocence, their class can be described as a double happiness. Therefore, this time, Old Man Zhao seemed to usher in another spring, and his whole face was smiling, like a blooming chrysanthemum.
Yu Xin looked at Tang Xiaoyan and An Xueqi, who were accompanying Su Mu on the rostrum, and a sense of jealousy came to her heart inexplicably. It's like drinking a jar of vinegar, and from the mouth to the stomach, all of it smells sour.
It's just that no matter how jealous she is, it's useless. Learning this talent can sometimes be really frustrating. With the same amount of effort, others can score 80 or 90 points. You, on the other hand, can only score 70 or 80 points. That huge frustration, really frustrating.
The commendation meeting lasted a full three hours before it was successfully concluded. When he stepped down, every student who received the award became the object of admiration or envy in the grade.
"Wow! Yuxin! Your boyfriend is still so good! A few girls next to him walked over when they saw Su Mu receiving the award. was immediately excited as if he had won the award, and called for Yuxin to treat him tonight. Yu Xin looked at their ecstatic expressions and responded lightly, but she couldn't be happy.
Like the picture that appeared in the dream, the summer when I walked hand in hand with you through the reeds; It's just, when I wake up... I just realized that everything is an illusion you gave. It is as ethereal and illusory as a bubble phantom and a water moon mirror flower......
