Mu Jingbo finally helped Jian Yaoxi win the position of Minister of Literature and Art, but since then he has pressed his love for Yuan Yuan in the darkest corner of his heart, thinking that she did not hesitate to face the most painful memories for him.

The fruit of sour feelings has tasted this taste at the beginning of his life when he was twenty years old.

Since that time, Mu Jingbo rarely mentioned Yuan Yuan in front of Xiao Shang, and when others took the initiative to mention her, they only turned around and made excuses to keep silent.

Xiao Shangzheng was immersed in the sweet ocean he weaved, swimming freely, and did not notice his brother's abnormality, only Gu Yiyu found that Mu Jingbo was getting more and more different, the "middle two" teenager who used to like to be lively and funny was completely like a changed personality, the most obvious thing is that his smile is gradually decreasing, and there is a trace of indescribable calmness.

Soon, two weeks passed, and the research homework assigned by Mr. Ye had to be handed in, and early in the morning, Xiong Xia got up and rushed to the printing shop, and printed five copies of the homework before hurriedly coming to the No. 1 lecture hall where Mr. Ye was classing.

From the door of the huge classroom, there was a crowd of people, noisy voices, laughter, and slapsticks. Fortunately, Yuan Yuan came to occupy a seat in advance, otherwise he might have to move a small bench to the back of the wall to listen to the lecture with other audit students.

Mr. Ye's class is still full of people, even young teachers who have just taken office sometimes come quietly to "steal teachers", which cannot be blamed on Mr. Ye's "outstanding", in last year's selection of "My Favorite Teacher", the second candidate was thrown 2000 votes!

"Xia Xia, have you printed it?" Yuan Yuan looked at the file bag in Xiong Xia's hand and asked.

"It's printed, and when the class comes, just let the class representative accept it." Xiong Xia said as he took out the neatly stacked five homework sheets from the file bag and put them in the top corner of the desk.

"It's been a hard day." Holding her arm, Yuan Yuan was grateful, "My mother asked my aunt to bring delicious food, and we will eat it when we go to the restaurant after class later." ”

"Then thank you, Auntie, for me." Xiong Xia didn't excuse her, after all, it was useless to excuse herself, and she would politely refuse when she didn't know each other before, but over time, knowing the stubbornness in Yuanyuan's bones, she no longer felt embarrassed. The two of them have some similar personalities, they are both girls who don't like to talk and don't like publicity, and it's not easy to be friends.

When class was approaching, Xiao Shang, Mu Jingbo and Gu Yiyu, the last one who appeared from the door of the classroom, came belatedly. The classroom has long been out of place, and the place occupied by Yuan Yuan is already full of people.

Teacher Ye repeatedly ordered that students who were not allowed to occupy a seat should come late and listen directly to the class at the end, whether they were auditing or taking their own courses, as long as they were late and late, they would be treated equally.

"Ah Shang, it looks like we're going to sit on a small bench today." Gu Yiyu glanced at the audience and said.

Xiao Shang looked up at the classroom seemingly casually, but his eyes searched intently where Xiong Xia was sitting, and while searching, he dealt with Gu Yiyu: "It's okay, just sit in the back." ”

The three of them walked backwards from the podium.

Many classmates in the classroom knew the three of them, especially the girls, who saw Xiao Shang all casting hot eyes at him and whispering to the classmates around him, and couldn't hide their excitement, but they didn't scream on the spot.

What Xiao Shang is wearing today is indeed eye-catching: Adidas' latest houndstooth sweatpants are well-cut, with his slender and shapely long legs, as if tailor-made, and the white and gray sportswear on the upper body shows his extraordinary temperament.

When walking past Xiong Xia, Xiao Shang deliberately slowed down, pretending to look at her inadvertently, and seeing that she was also looking at himself, he immediately shifted his gaze expressionlessly and walked straight back.

Xiong Xia was shocked by his eyes, thinking wildly, could it be because he didn't leave a place for him? However, there should be no reason for him to occupy a seat, right?

And Gu Yiyu took the initiative to stop and greeted Xiong Xia and Yuan Yuan with a smile. When I saw the research report on the table, I thanked him again and again.

"It's hard for you and Ah Shang." A mysterious smile at the corner of his mouth made Xiong Xia on the opposite side a little overwhelmed and confused, and hurriedly said bluntly to Gu Yiyu that it didn't matter.

When the class bell rang, Mr. Ye walked in refreshed, with sonorous steps.

Throwing away the computer bag on his body, he supported his body with both sides of the podium with both hands, looked around with keen eyes, and said: "The research assignment is complete?" ”

"It's done!" Almost in unison, too, I worked hard to choose the best teacher's class, and I couldn't finish my homework, isn't this a slap in the face?

"Okay, the person in charge will put away the homework. I'll rate the research based on how good it is and how complete it is. After finishing speaking, he saw the three of Xiao Shang sitting on the small bench at the back, and added: "Remember to get up early in the future, and you can still have a place to sit, but the rules can't be changed, whether you come late, whether you choose a class or an audit, you will be treated equally!" Okay, let's get to class. ”

Xiao Shang knew that he was talking to him, but he didn't care, after all, he came from home in a hurry early this morning, and he was already lucky if he didn't miss class, so it was a fantasy for him to come early and occupy a position!

Indeed, as soon as Mr. Ye's class started, he immediately grabbed the nerves of the students, and everyone stared intently at the teacher on the stage, and no one had time to make some small movements.

Only Xiao Shang!!

Touching the hard things in his backpack, he has been thinking about what excuse he should think of to give Xiong Xia.

A large class passed quickly, and everyone seemed to be unsatisfied, and after class, they still pestered Teacher Ye on the podium to discuss the problems in the class with him.

There were no classes in three or four classes, Xiong Xia got up and packed up his books, thinking about going to the library with Yuan Yuan.

When Xiao Shang saw that she was leaving, he also got up immediately, but before he could think of a reason, he hesitated for a moment and began to encourage Mu Jingbo.

"Xiaobo, there will be no classes later, where are you going?"

"Go back to the dorm, or go to the rehearsal room." Mu Jingbo, who was lacking in interest, looked at Yuan Yuan and was about to walk out of the classroom door, and his mood was suddenly lost.

"Why don't we go with Yuanyuan?" Xiao Shang proposed.

"You want to go with Xiong Xia." Mu Jingbo glanced at him with disdain.

Xiao, who was exposed, did not change his color, nor did he refute, but only asked if he wanted to join them?

Unusually, Mu Jingbo rarely said unequivocally that he didn't. Helplessly, he turned to Gu Yiyu again, Gu Yiyu shook his index finger and said, "Don't ask me, I'll have something to do later." ”

Seeing that these two unrighteous people all excused themselves, Xiao Shang dropped a sentence of "I'll go by myself" and trotted in the direction of Xiong Xia.

Mu Jingbo didn't follow him, feeling weird, Xiao Shang twisted his neck, and quickly caught up with Xiong Xia and Yuan Yuan in front.

"Where are you going?"

was asked by Xiao Shang, Xiong Xia was a little slow to react, and without waiting for his answer, Yuan Yuan took the first step, "Go to the library!" As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Shang, only carrying a bag, not even a book, and asked, "Where are you going?" I don't want to go to the library. ”

Yuan Yuan's eyes stared at Xiao Shang uncomfortably, and he choked back directly, "What?" No? ”

Yuan Yuan shook his head, "No, no, but what about Xiaobo?" Looking back, there is indeed only Xiao Shang, there is no shadow of Mu Jingbo, usually these two are like one person, how can this be him?

"Something!" Xiao Shang calmed down and didn't say a word more.

The three of them walked side by side, on the way to the library, Xiong Xia didn't say a word throughout the whole process, and Yuan Yuan usually didn't communicate with people, but in the face of Xiao Shang, because they were too familiar, the two were very talkative.

There are not many people in the study room in the library, Xiong Xia already has books there, so he doesn't need to find a suitable seat everywhere, he sits down directly at the table by the window, Yuan Yuan sits next to her, Xiao Shang pulled the chair opposite her and sat down without hesitation.

"Xiao Shang, you didn't bring any books, what are you studying?" Yuan Yuan asked him in a low voice.

Thinking that he didn't have a book, Xiao Shang thought for a while, went to the magazine shelf next to him and began to look for books of interest, but helplessly, there were only some military geography on the shelf, and there was no interest in these! It's a shame, but you can't just look at your phone.

was worried, Xiong Xia pushed a book, "Do you want to read this one?" ”

It is Haruki Murakami's "Kafka by the Sea".

Xiao Shang took it and looked at it carefully: a very thick book, the edges were a little worn, and he gently touched the writing with his hand, revealing a reassuring feeling.

Loud noises are forbidden in the study room, only the rustling of writing and flipping books. After reading for about half an hour, Xiao Shang was a little tired, and looked up at the girl opposite who was engrossed in writing, not only stretched her neck to read, but her handwriting was handsome and neat, and when she remembered that she asked for her contact information, the handwriting was also very beautiful and beautiful.

Only now do I realize that I had such a mind at that time, but I didn't realize it at that time.

I always feel that someone is watching me, and there is a hot gaze on my skin. Xiong Xia raised his head uncomfortably and crashed straight into Xiao Shang's eyes. Seeing Xiao Shang smiling at himself, as if he was trapped in the fog of creation, his brain did not obey the call, and he stayed in place in a daze.

When he came back to his senses, he opened his mouth slightly, unable to say anything, so he could only quickly bow his head and touch his cheek with his hand, which was hot and hot.

Yuan Yuan was bored in writing, holding her cheeks, putting the pen on the table, her eyes rolling back and forth, seeing that Xiao Shang was still staring at Xiong Xia motionlessly, she was a little curious, and looked at Xiong Xia next to her, she was looking at an English question, and she couldn't put down the pen to tick the correct option, but the question was not difficult.

I made up my mind and found an excuse to go out, leaving only Xiao Shang and Xiong Xia.

finally had the opportunity to send out the dolphins, and Xiao Shang was very satisfied with Yuan Yuan's departure. Looking around, all of them were "low-headed people" who were immersed in learning and couldn't extricate themselves. So he took the schoolbag behind him, unzipped it, put the box containing the little dolphin on the table, and gently pushed it over.

Knocking on the table, Xiong Xia stopped the pen in his hand, looked at Xiao Shang, and saw the packaging box again.

"I'll send you!" The two short words have already set off huge waves in Xiong Xia's heart, and the waves in her heart are turbulent, beating her messy heart all the time.

"This is..."

"Didn't you like this when you climbed the mountain before?"

Xiong Xia remembered that after coming back from that mountain climb, he still complained to Yuan Yuan, regretting that he didn't buy it, but he never thought about it...

"Why are you?" Xiong Xia subconsciously bit his lip and immediately let go again.

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Shang's voice sounded, "Yuan Yuan is here, put it away." ”

Hearing him say that Yuan Yuan was coming, Xiong Xia panicked for a while, hurriedly stuffed the box into the bag, cut his hair, and pretended to be calm.

Seeing her accept it, Xiao Shang smiled and continued to read the book with satisfaction.

Yuan Yuan, who didn't notice the abnormality between the two, continued to sit down, took the pen and began to do the question.

When it was almost twelve o'clock, Xiao Shang took a step first, and when he returned the book to Xiong Xiashi, he said "thank you" for the first time, which made the two people next to him a little stunned.
