Chapter 25: Inferiority

I don't know who reported to the Education Bureau that our school forced students to study in the evening, and in the class meeting, Mrs. Yuan announced with a calm face that the school would not organize evening self-study from today. As soon as the news was announced, the whole class was boiling.

After school, a few of us walked side by side on the school road with our school bags on our backs.

I opened my hands, and my mood was a long-lost joy, "It's been a long time since I've gone home to the sunset, the sunset is so beautiful." ”

Lu Li was disdainful: "If Mrs. Yuan knew that you don't like to study so much, I guess she would be very sad." ”

"I don't want to think about whose credit you have today?" Gu Zipei said triumphantly.

Gu Zijin grabbed Gu Zipei's collar with his left hand, and slapped his head with his right hand, "Stinky boy, the person who reported to the Education Bureau won't be you, right?" ”

Gu Zipei slapped Gu Zijin's hand away and flexibly walked to my side, "How about Lao Tzu?" ”

"You're crazy, if your father and Master Yuan know about it, you have to remove your skin."

Gu Zijin stretched out his hand to hit Gu Zipei again, Gu Zipei was excited, and suddenly pointed ahead and shouted, "Senior Chen Yao." ”

A few steps away, Chen Yao was wearing the red armgear of "student on duty" and standing upright at the school gate. In the afterglow, his whole body seemed to be gilded with golden light.

Gu Zijin also saw it, and at this time she had already withdrawn her hand and straightened her clothes and hair.

"Senior Chen Yao." We all greeted Chen Yao.

Chen Yao smiled at us, "I heard that some of you have reported to the Education Bureau in your age, congratulations on your temporary liberation." ”

Gu Zijin squinted at Gu Zipei, who was smiling weakly, "Yes, I really want to thank that classmate Lei Feng." ”

After speaking, Gu Zijin gestured to me with his eyes again, and I immediately understood, "I suddenly remembered that my mother told me to go home early for dinner, Senior Chen Yao, let's go first." You and Zijin chatted first. ”

I grabbed Lu Li and Gu Zipei with both hands and dragged them away from the school gate.

"Zhenzhen, is our mother going to invite me to dinner?" Gu Zipei smiled, looking very obscene.

I pushed him away in disgust and pointed to the black car parked in front of me, "Go back to your house for dinner." ”

Gu Zipei hung his head and got into the car and drove away.

"You've been dragging me," Lu Li pointed to the arm I was holding, "Are you going to invite me to your house for dinner?" ”

"Ah, I'm sorry." I hurriedly let go of my hand, "I just said it casually. ”

"From tomorrow onwards, I will go to practice every evening. You don't have to wait for me to come home after school. ”

After Lu Li said this, a picture immediately appeared in my mind:

The wife wearing an apron stood at the door to bid farewell to her husband who was going to work, and the husband gently touched his wife's hair and smiled dotingly: "I'm going to work overtime from today, you don't have to wait for me to eat together." ”

Husband? Wife? I must have been infected by Gu Zijin's nymphomaniac, I shook my head and drove the picture out of my mind.

Next month, the province will hold a piano competition, which is a competition, but secretly it is a selection competition for piano art candidates, and the judges are all piano masters from major conservatories.

The school won three competition places for the art candidates in the third year of high school, but because of Lu Li's outstanding talent, the school decided to let him participate in the competition to pave the way for future escort. However, because he could not occupy the quota of the third year of high school art candidates, he was arranged to play with one of the art candidates with four hands.

The last class of the day was over, and Chen Fei stopped me, "Zhenzhen, Lu Li's homework was not taken away, you two live close, or you can take his homework back." ”

I nodded and picked up the test paper on Lu Li's desk.

Gu Zijin walked over and hugged my shoulders, "Zhen Zhen, accompany me to the stationery store." ”

"However, I'm going to the piano room to deliver homework to Lu Li." I'm sorry.

"Wouldn't it be good if you sent it directly to his house," Gu Zijin raised his eyebrows, "If you don't see a class, it's like every other three autumns." ”

I hurriedly made a "shhh" gesture to her, and motioned her to be quieter, "I haven't seen Lu Li play the piano for a long time, why don't you go with me?" ”

Gu Zijin tilted his head and thought for a while, "Then let's go together." ”

Walking out of the school building, through the playground, and just climbing to the fifth floor, I heard the pleasant sound of the piano coming from the piano room.

Gu Zijin gasped and complained, "I knew that it was so far away and I had to climb the stairs, so I wouldn't come." ”

Gu Zijin and I walked gently to the door of the classroom, Lu Li and a girl were sitting in front of the piano playing, this girl should be the art candidate who participated in the competition with Lu Li.

The music teacher noticed us and came over and asked, "Is there anything wrong with you?" ”

"Teacher, I'm here to deliver today's homework to Lu Li."

At this time, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and Lu Li raised his head and looked at me.

I stepped forward and handed the test paper to Lu Li, "Chen Fei said that you forgot to bring your homework, let me bring it to you." The yellow post-it note says the homework you want to do today, don't forget. ”

Lu Li took the test paper and put it on the stool next to him, "Got it." ”

I quietly glanced at the girl sitting next to Lu Li, and it happened that the girl also raised her eyes to look at me. Originally, I thought that Gu Zijin was already very good-looking, but I didn't expect the girl in front of me to look more exquisite, with black and bright eyebrows, bright eyes, a straight nose, a small mouth, and long black curly hair draped behind her, looking dignified and demure.

Maybe I stared at her for too long, and she pursed her lips and chuckled. I blushed and glanced away, "Senior sister, you are so good-looking." ”

The senior sister was not embarrassed, but thanked me generously: "Thank you, senior sister, your mouth is so sweet." ”

Because they still had to practice, I didn't dare to disturb anymore, so I reluctantly left the piano room with Gu Zijin. Through the big window, Lu Li and the senior sister lowered their heads and played intently, the two looked up in tacit understanding, the boy was handsome and gentlemanly, the girl was beautiful and generous, such a picture was as harmonious and beautiful as the melody at this time.

I looked down at my baggy school uniform jacket, touched the withered hair on the back of my head, and sighed deeply.

Gu Zijin turned his head suspiciously and asked, "What kind of sigh is our little sun sighing so decently?" ”

"Zijin, when the two of them play the piano, you look at me, I look at you, my sixth sense tells me that they have an adulterous relationship."

Gu Zijin was obviously taken aback by my words, "What are you thinking?" They are probably cultivating a tacit understanding. ”

Playing the piano is a beautiful and simple thing, but I have to think about it so dirty, I hate myself like this.

I sighed again, "Zijin, do you think I have no merits?" ”

"How so? You study well and have a good personality. ”

"However, Lu Li should like a girl who is as dazzling as the senior sister just now. It's not an ordinary girl like me who just studies well and has a good personality. ”

Gu Zijin patted me on the shoulder, "Zhen Zhen, you are not Lu Li, how do you know what he thinks in his heart?" I just think Lu Li is very special to you. ”

Gu Zijin's words rekindled my confidence a little, "Really? ”

"Zhenzhen, you are our little sun, no one will refuse the sun."

I hugged Gu Zijin and was so moved that I burst into tears, "Thank you, Zijin." ”

"Why are you like Gu Zipei, your flesh is numb!"

Gu Zijin is right, Lu Li is quite special to me - because he will only dictate to me alone.

During recess, Wang Ning and Gu Zijin and I stood in the corridor studying the constellations.

Wang Ning held the book and read word by word: "Zhen Zhen, the book of horoscopes says that this week your mood is fickle and your judgment is declining, so remember to misunderstand the people close to you because of your careful eyes. ”

"What does that mean?" I asked.

Gu Zijin smiled at me secretly, "It means that seeing is not necessarily believing, and you should judge with your heart." ”

I still didn't understand, and when I was about to borrow a book from Wang Ning to study it myself, someone gently tapped me on the shoulder.

I looked up, it was the senior sister who played the piano with Lu Li yesterday.

"Elementary schoolgirl, you're studying constellations."

The senior sister smiled sweetly at me, and her smile made me realize what it means to be "smiling and beautiful".

I nodded embarrassedly, "Senior sister, are you here to find Lu Li?" ”

"Yes, the teacher has something to do today, and he wants us to go to the piano room early to practice."

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on her body, and she was plated with a fluffy golden circle of light, and she smiled very kindly.

After a while, Lu Li walked out with his schoolbag on his back, he first glanced at the book in my hand, and then said to me in a very natural tone: "Wait until you help me send my homework to the piano room." ”

The thought of having to cross half the school and climb the fifth floor made every cell in my body resist, "I'll send it to your house after school and let grandma bring it to you." ”

"Don't," Lu Li simply rejected my offer, "I'm going to do my homework when I'm resting." ”

Lu Li no longer gave me a chance to protest, and left with big strides.

Senior sister winked at me and waved at me with a smile, "Senior sister, I'll see you later." ”

Gu Zipei, who was passing by, pointed to the back of her senior sister and asked curiously, "Who is the beautiful woman who walked with Lu Li just now?" ”

"Her name is He Xiaoying, she is the granddaughter of Lu Li's grandfather's good friend, and she is also in No. 1 middle school in junior high school," Wang Ning looked at me for a long time, and spit out a sentence with difficulty, "The relationship between the two seems to be very good." ”

Look, let me say, never underestimate a woman's sixth sense, they really have an "adulterous relationship". I stuffed the horoscope book into Wang Ning's hand and walked into the classroom in a huff.

After school, I climbed the staircase guardrail and struggled to the fifth floor, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, thanks to Lu Li, I ran errands upstairs and downstairs, the amount of exercise was twice as large as before, and I would probably lose weight.

In the piano room, Lu Li and Senior Sister Shinoying sat side by side in front of the piano like yesterday, playing with four hands in tacit understanding.

When I walked into the piano room, Lu Li didn't notice me, and he didn't even raise his head. I pursed my lips and put the homework book on Lu Li's schoolbag and left quietly.

I used to call myself a "little sun", but in front of better people like Lu Li, I was just the most inconspicuous little star, no matter how hard I tried to shine, I was not as dazzling as them.

Only I know that on the back side of the sun, there is an inferiority complex.
