Chapter XVII: Gray Youth I
At the end of the elementary school years, the last ** set off is the branch school exam for elementary school to middle school. The top 30 students in the year group will be eligible to enter the Enlightenment Middle School, the best of the eight middle schools in Qicheng.
In this crucial battle, the League of Excellence has a remarkable record. Wu Hao won the championship without any suspense and was admitted to Enlightenment Middle School with the qualification of first place. Zhang Chengyuan played extraordinarily and won the third place in the exam and won the Tanhua. Guo Siqing's best friend Jiang Wenyu ranked fourth. Leng Changhe was eighth, Zhu Tiancao, Zheng Changlong, and Guo Siqing were also shortlisted in the top 30 and were successfully admitted to the Enlightenment School.
However, there will always be a little regret in life, just like the League of Excellence, which has always been shrouded in a halo, and it has not been able to fall behind.
Cao Duo, the former "little gangster" was really left behind.
But fortunately, the partners all live nearby, although Cao Duo was not admitted to the Enlightenment Middle School, but on weekdays, the partners can still get together to play.
Middle school is a new beginning.
New semester, new school, new classmates.
When the classes were divided, Zhang Chengyuan, Leng Changhe and Jiang Wenyu were assigned to the first class; Zheng Changlong himself was assigned to the second class; Zhu Tiancao, Guo Siqing, and Wu Hao were assigned to the third class. But it doesn't matter, when I was in elementary school, we weren't in the same class.
The story of their junior high school days begins on their second day of school.
Zhang Chengyuan rarely imagined the scene where he and Ruan Xiyue met again, he thought that everything was over, but he didn't expect that everything had just begun.
The little girl's promise was true, she really came to school, and she joined his class.
In the applause of welcoming the two freshmen into the class, the first person to walk into the class was Ruan Xiyue, at the age of twelve or thirteen, her clear eyes became more and more agile, and her delicate facial features were still so impeccable, not to mention that now the girl has just grown up and has a wonderful posture. With such an appearance, she is even more pretty than she was back then.
"Hello students, my name is Ruan Xiyue, I am very happy to join this class, I believe we will become good friends! I have a lot of hobbies, such as ......" Ruan Xiyue is looking at communicating with the students in the audience. Now she is a down-and-out beautiful girl, without any shyness and childishness.
Zhang Chengyuan didn't expect that when he saw her growing up many years later, his heart would be turbulent, he tried hard to make eye contact with Xiyue, but Xiyue looked around at the classmates in the audience, but did not stop at him. And Ruan Xiyue's beautiful appearance and otherworldly temperament, as well as her smooth speech, obviously attracted the attention of the whole class, and the classmates stared at her one by one, the boys couldn't help but grin, and the girls couldn't see whether they were envy or jealousy in their expressions.
"Could it be that I've changed so much that she can't recognize it?" Zhang Chengyuan couldn't help but start speculating. Thinking about the small agreement between the two back then, I can't help but feel a little embarrassed. "Maybe she was naΓ―ve back then, and now she may not remember our childhood agreement."
The warm applause of the students interrupted Zhang Chengyuan's reverie. Shigetsu had already taken a seat close to him amid the applause of his classmates, and the second girl began to introduce on stage.
Zhang Chengyuan only vaguely heard her call Zhang Luoqi, and then didn't listen to it......
His thoughts began to roll, and when he saw Xiyue, now Xiyue is more beautiful than it was back then, how can he not be moved again?
Zhang Chengyuan couldn't even remember what the teacher said in the first class, he only remembered that he had been thinking about how to talk to Xiyue after class. Do you paced it step by step, or did you rush over quickly, did you say that you hadn't seen you for a long time when you met, or did you wait for her to say it first?
"Bell~" When the bell rang at the end of class, Zhang Chengyuan found that he was thinking too much about it.
Before he could get up and walk over, the classmates of half of the younger class had already surrounded Xiyue, of course, most of them were boys, and his good brother Leng Changhe actually surrounded him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Do I still want to go over and squeeze with them, rushing to talk to Xiyue?" Zhang Chengyuan hesitated, "She came to my class specially, she must have come for me, will she take the initiative to come to me in a while?" β
But seeing that her classmates were chatting around her, and many boys took the initiative to shake hands with her, Zhang Chengyuan couldn't wait any longer.
He left his position and squeezed to Ruan Xiyue's side.
It just so happened that Leng Changhe was chatting with her.
"Oh! You're from the League of Excellence? Ruan Xiyue looked a little surprised and said to Leng Changhe, "Although I am not from the elementary school, I have heard of your name, and you are really good." β
"Shioyue!" Zhang Chengyuan omitted his surname and called it out directly, he wanted to show it to the surrounding classmates to prove that their relationship was closer.
"Hello!" Ruan Xiyue politely turned her head and stretched out her hand to Zhang Chengyuan.
The moment the two met their eyes, Zhang Chengyuan felt that his world was going to freeze, and he was looking forward to Xiyue's surprised gaze, happy gaze, and even tears. But what he saw was Xiyue's dull gaze.
However, after only losing her mind for a moment, Xiyue smiled again and said, "Hello, I don't know your name yet?" Her hand kept stretching out to Zhang Chengyuan, and her greeting was so polite, so polite that Zhang Chengyuan felt cold.
"He's my buddy and a member of the Excellence League! His name is Zhang Chengyuan! Leng Changhe enthusiastically introduced on the side.
Xiyue had naturally retracted her hand, and after listening to Leng Changhe's introduction, she smiled and said, "Ah, you are also from the Excellence Alliance, so powerful~"
"You don't know me anymore?" Zhang Chengyuan felt very bored in his heart, but with so many classmates around, he was not good at seizures.
Xiyue's clear and agile eyes stared at him, those eyes seemed to be able to speak, but unfortunately Xiyue's eyes were never fathomable to him.
"Ahh Shigetsu smiled, "I remembered!" When I was a kid, you kicked a soccer ball in my backyard, and then you tiptoed over the wall into my house, and I caught you! I said, why do you look so familiar! β
The classmates next to him burst into laughter.
"Suzu~"
The class bell rang, and the students quickly returned to their seats.
Zhang Chengyuan's world has darkened.
He thought it was just a childhood episode.
But when he saw Ruan Xiyue again, he knew that in his heart, she was not an episode, but a chorus that kept reverberating.
However, the continuation seems to be just wishful thinking.
Shizuki already regarded him as a passerby.
When I came home at night, I lay in bed weakly, and I didn't seem to even bother to breathe. The last time I felt this way was four years ago, when he and Ruan Xiyue separated.
Closing his eyes and opening them again, he sat in front of the door of the Sanitary Center of the Terror.
"Good boy, I slept a little late today!" An ethereal voice came from behind Zhang Chengyuan.
"Who are you?"
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"So, for all these years, you've been in my dreams every night?"
"Of course."
"Wait, you just said that when I was in the third grade of elementary school, I had bizarre dreams every morning because you designed my dreams to help me convey them from my dreams?"
"yes!"
"But if this is true, why are there no more suggestive dreams after that?"
"First, the transmission efficiency is low, only one character at a time; Second, you don't remember me when you wake up, and it won't be easy if you find a psychiatrist or let someone else know the secret. Third, I found that although I thought you had forgotten everything when you woke up, my long-term research found that there were still some implicit hints. β
"What?"
