Chapter 11: You Think You're a Thermometer?

It is said that the school's women's toilet is the place where gossip and secrets are exported the most. This truth has really been tested tens of thousands of times in practice.

No, one day during recess, I was squatting in the toilet when I suddenly heard someone talking outside the door.

"Wang Ning, Lu Li in your class has been very popular recently, and there are many girls in our age who secretly send love letters to him."

"What's so good about that guy, he has a paralyzed face and a cold tone, as if someone owes him millions, and there is no human touch at all."

"That's right, I don't like his iceberg face either, I've seen Lu Li throw the love letters that others gave him into the trash several times. But Wang Ning, what kind of boy do you like? ”

"I like the sunny spots, the sporty ones."

"I know, this person is Gu Zipei, the sports committee member of your class."

"Be quiet! Don't tell anyone. ”

"I didn't expect that Miss Wang, who is usually not afraid of heaven and earth, would blush."

"Where, it's almost class, let's go."

The noise outside the door gradually faded away, and I secretly opened the toilet door, poked my head out, and made sure that there was no one left, and then walked out generously.

On the way back to the classroom, I tried to digest the conversation just now, only to realize that I had spied two incredible secrets: one is that Lu Li also has black fans; The second is that Wang Ning likes Gu Zipei!

When she stepped into the classroom, Wang Lu was standing next to Lu Li's seat with a math lesson and practice, she raised her hand and brushed the broken hair in her ear, pursed her lips, and whispered: "Lu Li, you, are you free after school, can you help me teach me a few math problems?" ”

Lu Li raised his head slightly, and his voice was as cold as usual, "I'm not free at night." ”

"So, what about tomorrow night?" The girl's arm holding the book tightened.

"I'm not free tomorrow night." The boy's tone was still cold.

"Okay, thank you for giving me the title just now." With that, he turned around and walked quickly back to his seat.

At this time, standing not far away, I clearly saw Wang Luyin's expression of being rejected one after another, and she was about to cry.

Thinking of what Wang Ning said in the toilet and Grandma Lu Li's instructions in the ward, I sighed softly and paced to my seat and sat down.

I tidied up the desk, thinking about how to speak, and glanced sideways at Lu Li beside me, who was doing a physics test paper, and found that I was peeking at him, Lu Li stopped his pen and turned his face to look at me.

I smiled a little weakly; "Lu Li, you're doing a physics test paper."

Lu Li let out a "hmm" with his nose, lowered his head and continued to do the question.

"When I was in my third year of junior high school, a student in my class changed the phrase 'ball spins for a week' to 'ball spin for a week' in order to prevent the teacher from finding out that he was copying other people's physics homework. Ha ha. ”

This joke was told to me by Gu Zipei, and I laughed so much that I turned my back when I heard it, and now I still laugh out of tears when I tell it again.

But Lu Li next to me was indifferent, and even looked at me with a monster look.

I stopped laughing awkwardly, "Isn't it funny?" ”

"Is it funny?" Lu Li asked rhetorically.

"Lu Li, you have to smile more, you have a tight face all day long, which is not conducive to the movement of facial muscles. You see," stretch out your two index fingers and draw a smiley face in the air, "raise your mouth up at a forty-five degree angle, and your facial muscles will relax with one movement." ”

"Why laugh? I'm not Maitreya Buddha. Lu Li looked at me innocently.

"You're always looking cold and rejecting people thousands of miles away, and you'll have no friends." I brutally revealed the truth, hoping to wake up Lu Li.

"Will you stop being friends with me just because I don't laugh?"

Lu Li looked at me seriously, his eyes were clean and pure, and his questions were as innocent as a child, reaching the softest place in my heart.

I shook my head heavily, "Of course not, you're fine now," I thought of Lu Li's grandmother's wishes, which were also my most sincere wishes to Lu Li, "but I hope you can become better and become a warm and sunny person." ”

Lu Li looked at me and didn't answer for a long time, until the class bell rang, and we ended the topic and devoted ourselves to the lecture.

The mid-term exams are scheduled for next Wednesday through Friday, and this exam is the most important exam we have ever taken to the university – because there is a parent-teacher conference after the exam. Most of the students in the class are engaged in intensive revision, but there are also a small number of people who don't care, such as Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei, their admission grades are already poor, but the family has money, even if they don't do well in the college entrance examination, their parents can find a way to let them go to college, after all, there is nothing that money can't do; And because Lu Li had made sufficient preparations in advance, he was a non-caring attitude before any exam.

After dinner, there was still half an hour to go to the evening self-study, so I took Gu Zijin to the commissary to buy pens. At the checkout, I caught a glimpse of a few Mayday flyers on the cash register, which read "When we mix together - Mayday Dragon City New Year's Eve Concert, waiting for you".

I excitedly grabbed the leaflet, and the movement was so big that it startled the proprietress who was settling the accounts.

Seeing this, Gu Zijin came over curiously, "Zhen Zhen, what are you looking at?" ”

"Come here for a New Year's Eve concert on Mayday." My voice trembled with excitement.

"Yes, Zhenzhen, haven't you always wanted to go to their concert since junior high school? It's finally time to meet your five boyfriends this year. Gu Zijin deliberately said "boyfriends" very loudly, and everyone else in the commissary turned their heads one after another.

After hearing this, the proprietress couldn't help but joke: "Classmate, do you still buy the pen?" Why don't you ask your five boyfriends to come over and help you pay? ”

My face flushed, I hurriedly took out the money and put it on the table, and asked, "Auntie, do you sell concert tickets?" ”

Auntie waved her hand and replied: "I am only responsible for helping them publicize, if you want to buy a ticket, you have to go to the ticket center in the city to buy it," Auntie pointed to the leaflet in my hand, "Na, here is the specific address and consultation number." ”

"Auntie, can I take this leaflet?"

"Take it."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Gu Zijin and I walked out of the commissary, it was already dark, I dragged the leaflet in my hand, and walked on the road from time to time to pick up and take a look. I was shrouded by the high pressure of the half-term exam for a long time, and my mood at this time was extraordinarily transparent.

"Zhenzhen, will your parents let you go to the concert?"

"I'll go back and figure it out."

When I got home in the evening, my dad and my mom sat on the sofa and watched "Love is Deep and Rainy". In the TV, Yiping and Shuhuan said goodbye at the station, and the two of them were so fascinated that they didn't even notice that I came back.

I put down my bag and sat next to it, coughing heavily, before they came back to their senses.

"We're back."

I nodded, picked up an orange from the table, peeled it, broke it in half, and handed it to my parents, "Dad, Mom, eat some oranges." ”

Maybe the flattering expression on my face was too obvious, but my mother took the orange and looked at me with a smile, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Sure enough, I knew my daughter Mo Ruomu, so I had to jump straight to the theme, "Mom, I want to go to the Mayday New Year's Eve concert." ”

"What's so good about the concert, you want to see it and ask your dad to buy you a DVD."

"Mom, watching TV is different from listening to the scene, I'm here to feel the atmosphere of the scene."

"Zhenzhen, the most important thing for you now is to study, don't learn from others to chase stars......"

My mom picked up the remote control and turned off the TV as she spoke, as if she wanted to have a good reason with me, and I hurriedly sent a look to my dad asking for help.

My dad immediately understood and interrupted my mom's words, "I don't think it's okay to chase stars, didn't you like Fei Yuqing very much when you were young, and you queued up all night to buy his tapes." ”

"I said Lao Ye, can this be the same? Zhen Zhen was finally admitted to a good school, what should I do if I don't study hard and can't get into a good university in the future? My mom frowned, obviously unhappy that my dad had answered for me.

"It's good for children to be young and have pursuits. Don't just study every day, it's easy to become a nerd. Isn't Zhen Zhen almost half of the exam, if she can take the first exam this time, let her go. ”

After speaking, my dad glanced at me, and I hurriedly took my mother's hand and said coquettishly: "Yes, yes, yes, this time I promise to be the first in the class, Mom, you promise me." ”

"The tablemate who lives downstairs from us, can you pass him?" Ever since the monthly exams, my mom has known that I have a very good tablemate, and she lives downstairs from me.

"Absolutely! I promise! I raised my hand and took the oath earnestly.

My mother was amused by my appearance, her mouth softened, and she said, "Okay, you and your dad sing and harmonize, can I continue to be blackfaced?" You must have done a good job for me in this exam. ”

I was so happy that I kissed my mom on the cheek, "Okay, thank you, Mommy, and Dad." ”

Then he picked up his schoolbag and jumped back to his room to read.

In the next few days, I was immersed in revision and doing questions, and repeatedly refused Gu Zijin's invitation to visit the commissary. After my fifth refusal, Gu Zijin finally couldn't help rubbing his back with a pen in his seat, and said dissatisfiedly: "Ye Zhenzhen, you have been studying so hard these days, it is difficult for you to take the first grade." ”

I twisted my back, which was a little itchy by Gu Zijin, and replied while lowering my head and calculating a function problem: "My mother said that as long as I take the first place in this exam, I will be allowed to go to the concert." ”

After hearing this, Gu Zijin got up from his seat and half-squatted on the edge of my seat, "Really? Your mom actually promised to let you go. But," he said, pointing to Lu Li, who was dozing off on the table, "This guy next to you is so perverted, are you sure you can beat him?" ”

I glanced at the poster on the table and nodded firmly, "For my Mayday, I work hard." ”

However, this is easier said than done. At this time, I had been facing the last big question of the physics exam for nearly half an hour, but I couldn't solve it.

I turned my head to glance at Lu Li next to me, who had already started to do the second physics paper, and he always had a calm and indifferent expression on his face, which was in stark contrast to the way I scratched my ears and cheeks.

I bit the tip of my pen and muttered: "Gu Zijin is right, he is really a pervert." ”

Lu Li seemed to notice that I was looking at him, but he didn't raise his eyes, but said leisurely, "I have a classmate in junior high school who likes to bite the tip of the pen, and once accidentally swallowed the cap of the pen, and the result was ......"

Lu Li stopped in the middle of speaking, and the pen was calculated on the scratch paper, and I asked curiously, "What happened to the result?" ”

Lu Li filled in the calculated results into the test paper, put down the pen, and looked at me meaningfully, "As a result, I almost cut off a lung when I went to the hospital." ”

"Poof." I was so frightened by Lu Li's words that I quickly spit out the cap of the pen from my mouth.

Lu Li was visibly amused by my frightened appearance, and his eyes were full of smiles.

Since the last time I talked to Lu Li, this guy does seem to be a little different, but I can't say what is different.

After a few seconds, Lu Liyou regained his usual coldness, and he pulled my test paper and asked, "Which question do you not know?" ”

I pointed to the last question, "This one." ”

"You have to carefully examine this problem, when the running speed of the conveyor belt is small and the conveying time is long, the object needs to go through two processes from A to B at a uniform speed and uniform motion, and the time for the uniform acceleration of the object is t1......"

I have to say that Lu Li's explanation of the topic is very logical, and the ideas that were messed up before were explained by him, which was completely clear and clear, and I quickly solved the answer according to Lu Li's method, looking at the full answer steps, like looking at a baby born with a difficult birth.

"Lu Li, you are too suitable for studying."

"You want to be the first in the exam this time?"

"Did you hear that?"

"To see the Mayday concert?"

"Yes, my mom said that if I can get the first place in the exam, she will let me go to the concert."

"Why do you like them so much?"

Lu Li's tone was very flat when he said this, but I was sensitive to whether Lu Li thought I was a blind star chaser.

I tilted my head and thought: "When I was in elementary school, my grades were very good, and everyone thought that I would definitely be admitted to high school, but then I was two points behind. In fact, it doesn't matter if I can't go to middle school, it's just that my self-esteem is too strong, and I can't accept the gap from peak to trough for a while. After entering the first year of junior high school, my academic performance became worse and worse, and I became more and more inferior, and once I heard Mayday's "Stubbornness" on the radio, the lyrics said that I am my own god in the place where I live, even if I am disappointed, I can't despair. I wondered what kind of person would write such lyrics and sing such songs, and then I secretly went to an Internet cafΓ© to surf the Internet and read the story about the band in one afternoon. I told myself to be like them, like what they sang, not to care about other people's thoughts, to live a wonderful life in my own world, and to fulfill the dreams I wanted to accomplish, so I wanted to go and see them and thank them for the songs they wrote, which shone up my dull years. Lu Li, I'm going to enlarge my tricks in this exam. ”

After saying that, I laughed at Lu Li.

Lu Li grinned at me, raised his hand and patted my head gently, and his voice was soft, "Good luck." ”

The day before the exam, there is no need to study late on your own. Zhang Long asked us to tidy up the exam room, and everyone separated the two desks, put them upside down, and cleaned up the books in the drawers.

I said to Lu Li, who was cleaning up the drawers, "Lu Li, you go first, I'll help you tidy up." ”

Lu Li put the last book into his schoolbag and replied, "No, I'm not in a hurry." ”

"Don't you have to go to the hospital to take care of your grandma?"

Lu Li stood up and turned the table over 180 degrees, and then helped me turn the table over before slowly speaking: "My grandmother was discharged from the hospital at noon today." ”

"That's great."

This means that Lu Li doesn't have to work so hard to take care of his grandmother in the future, he can go to evening self-study with me, and he can go home with me, thinking about it, my face is a little hot.

Lu Li didn't notice my abnormality, picked up my schoolbag and threw it into my arms.

"Let's go, go home."

"Oh, good."

I picked up my schoolbag and followed Lu Li out of the classroom with small steps.

I suddenly remembered the beautiful legend of Wanfeng Road, and decided to cheekily persuade Lu Li to walk Wanfeng Road with me.

"Lu Li, that, I heard that the road behind the administrative building is full of maple leaves, and it is particularly beautiful in autumn, or we will walk from there."

"Oh, good."

I had thought of a lot of rhetoric in my heart, but I didn't expect Lu Li to agree so readily, and I was overjoyed.

In the past, I only heard about how beautiful Wanfeng Road was, but because the administrative building was in the northwest corner of the school, few people went there. Now that I am standing on this road, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of me, I realize what it means to be so beautiful that I can't describe it in words.

It is late autumn, and Wanfeng Road is full of fallen leaves of maple trees on both sides of the road, some are light red, some are light yellow, and some are dark yellow...... Decorate this calm and warm road. The sun shines on the trees, the wind blows, and the silver glows between the leaves, so that people can't open their eyes.

Lu Li and I walked side by side, the sun stretched our figures, I opened my eyes wide, looking forward to the maple leaves falling, during which a few pieces were blown off by the wind, and I stretched out my hands to catch them several times but did not receive them. Seeing that it was coming to an end, I was a little frustrated.

Lu Li seemed to sense my intentions, he stretched out his broad palm, and caught the fallen leaves at one time, he handed the leaves to me, not forgetting to hurt me, "Here you go, stupid to death." ”

I took the fallen leaf handed to me by Lu Li, and at this time, a leaf slowly fell on my left shoulder, I immediately grabbed it and handed it to Lu Li excitedly, "Give, the gift is still exchanged." ”

I thought that Lu Li would think that my behavior was too naΓ―ve, but I didn't expect him to accept it without hesitation.

"Lu Li, how do I think you've changed." I deliberately looked at Lu Li with inquiring eyes.

"Where has changed?" Lu Li asked.

"It's warmer than when I first saw it."

I raised my head, the sunlight just fell in front of my eyes, and Lu Li beside me was shrouded in a halo, and I couldn't see his expression at the moment.

For a long time, Lu Li didn't reply. I thought I had said something wrong that made him angry. He suddenly rubbed my bangs with his hand and chuckled, "Ye Zhenzhen, you think you are a thermometer." ”

After messing with my hair, Lu Li, the initiator, walked away briskly with his long legs, and I chased Lu Li while I straightened my hair.

In the distance, the sun has sunk on the mountain, and the afterglow of the setting sun falls on the road in pieces, winding into the unknown distance. At this moment, the school is very quiet, I have the illusion that there is always a wonder, Lu Li and I are like old men in the twilight, walking and walking to the white head. I glanced at Lu Li beside me, he was not smiling at this time, but there was a shallow smile attached to his face, like the lingering sound that stopped in the air after the piano music stopped.
