The three-day exam ended in a hurry in our hands.

On Sunday afternoon, I was lying on the sofa watching "Wulin Gaiden" while eating snacks, and Gu Zijin called me.

As soon as I picked it up, I heard Gu Zijin excitedly shouting on the phone: "Zhen Zhen, who do you guess I met at the municipal library today?" ”

"Did you meet Nicholas Tse or Cecilia Cheung?" I grabbed a handful of potato chips and put them in my mouth and replied absentmindedly.

"I met Chen Yao! We also spoke. Gu Zijin raised the decibel level.

As soon as I heard that it was Chen Yao, I was immediately interested. immediately turned down the volume of the TV, sat up straight, put on a posture of listening to gossip, and couldn't wait to say, "Tell me quickly." ”

"I went to the library this morning to borrow a book, and I forgot to bring my library card. Chen Yao was also borrowing books at the time, and when he heard that I was from Yangfan Middle School, he used his library card to borrow it for me. He would bend over and whisper to me just like he did in the studio. Gu Zijin talked about his first acquaintance with Chen Yao, and his voice became gentle.

"Does he recognize you, then?" I asked.

"Nope. I was so ordinary at that time, he probably didn't remember me for a long time. ”

Gu Zijin in junior high school was indeed very ordinary, she was a little chubby at that time, with short hair, pimples on both sides of her cheeks, and braces. During the winter vacation of the third year of junior high school, Gu Zijin went to the studio to learn painting, and met Chen Yao, who was already in the first year of high school in Yangfan Middle School, and the two of them only crossed paths once, but Gu Zijin fell in love with him, but Chen Yao never appeared again after only three classes, and Gu Zijin's liking did not have a chance to say. In order to see Chen Yao again, Gu Zijin changed from a tomboy to a beautiful girl, and gave up the entrance examination of the High School Affiliated to the Academy of Fine Arts for him.

Gu Zijin continued: "But it doesn't matter, I will definitely make him like me now." ”

I have been very envious of Gu Zijin since I was a child, she has always been a girl who dares to love and hate, when she decides to like someone, she will do her best to fight for it, no matter how difficult the process is, no matter what the outcome is. On the other hand, I was the opposite of her, always holding back and hesitating because I was afraid of failure. So when I was sure that I liked Lu Li, I didn't dare to tell him, let alone swear to chase him like Gu Zijin.

Gu Zijin's love oath made my heart surge, and I encouraged Gu Zijin, "Gu Zijin, you have to come on!" I'm sticking with you. ”

On the same day, Gu Zijin and I discussed the plan to pursue Chen Yao on the phone, and we talked until the phone ran out of battery.

On Monday, the papers of all subjects were handed out one after another, and the representatives of each subject were envious when they walked to the seats of Lu Li and me to hand over the papers, especially when they were handed out to Lu Li's test papers, they were even more adored when they saw idols. I always take the opportunity to sneak a glance at Lu Li's grades, and Lu Li's scores in other subjects are higher than mine, except for Chinese and English.

In the last class meeting in the afternoon, Zhang Long announced that the ranking of the monthly exam results had come out, Lu Li was still the first in the class, the second in the year, the second in my class, and the tenth in the year, but Lu Li's total score was ten points higher than me. Zhang Long was very satisfied and praised me and Lu Li.

After the class meeting, the whole class is cleaned up.

Gu Zijin and I stood in front of a window, wiping the glass in the low place. And Gu Zipei and Lu Li stood not far away and wiped the glass on the high place.

Gu Zipei waved a rag and said to Lu Li: "Lu Li, you can still take the exam so high when you sleep in class every day, are you cheating?" ”

Gu Zijin should also talk to Gu Zipei, "Yes, Lu Li, you didn't take any notes, how did you get so high?" ”

Lu Li turned his head and pointed at me with his finger holding a rag: "Ask her, she helped me copy the notes." ”

When Lu Li spoke, his eyes were shining, like a sparkling lake. I avoided his gaze with some embarrassment.

"Ye Zhenzhen, why don't you give us a copy of the notes you help Lu Li copy, you value color and ignore friends." Gu Zijin pinched my back fiercely.

I twisted my body in pain and quickly explained, "That's because Lu Li said to help him copy notes, so he agreed to play the piano at the welcome party." ”

"I don't care, Vera, you have to do something for me to make amends. Hey. Gu Zijin smiled maliciously.

Whenever Gu Zijin showed me such an expression, I had a bad premonition, "What do you want me to do?" ”

Gu Zijin leaned into my ear and muttered, "Help me send a love letter to Chen Yao." ”

"What? "Before I could say the words of the book, Gu Zijin quickly covered my mouth with a rag......

"Ye Zhenzhen, you whisper to me." Gu Zijin warned, and at the same time increased the intensity of his hands.

I was choked with a rag and my ears were red, and I used my strength to push Gu Zijin's hand away and wiped my lips hard, "Bah, Gu Zijin, you are really dirty." ”

After speaking, I raised the rag in my hand to wipe Gu Zijin's face, and Gu Zijin ran behind Gu Zipei screaming.

"Gu Zijin, don't hide." I stretched out my hand to grab Gu Zijin, but unexpectedly threw the rag on Gu Zipei's face.

"Zhenzhen, don't hurt the innocent." Gu Zipei dodged helplessly.

"Gu Zipei, if you're a man, block it for me." Gu Zijin pushed Gu Zipei in front of me, reached into the bucket and picked up a handful of water, and sprinkled it on me.

I also hurriedly hid behind Lu Li, and the innocent Lu Li blocked the water for me. He frowned and joined the rag war.

The four of us were fighting, laughing, and shoving, and in the end it was the Labor Councilor who couldn't stand it and stopped our big fight.

The four of us re-washed the rags and wiped the windows.

A golden leaf fell from the branch and swirled down on the windowsill in front of me. I excitedly picked up the fallen leaves and held them up in front of Lu Li: "Lu Li, look, the autumn of sailing seems to be coming." ”

Lu Li glanced at the fallen leaves and asked, "Autumn is coming, why are you so happy?" ”

I didn't answer, carefully putting the fallen leaves in my pocket.

Of course, Lu Li would not know why I was so happy.

Listening to Gu Zijin, there is a line called "Wanfeng Road" from the teaching building of Yangfan Middle School to the administrative building, which is named after the towering maple trees planted on both sides, and in autumn, the leaves are falling. Legend has it that if you walk side by side with the person you like, and give the blade to the person around you, the two of you can be together forever.

I secretly looked at Lu Li, who was cleaning the window carefully, imagining the scene of walking side by side with Lu Li on Wanfeng Road, and my face became hot unconsciously. Just as I was about to stop fantasizing, I found that Gu Zijin was looking at me and Lu Li with inquiring eyes. I immediately turned my head in a gloomy fashion and pretended to continue cleaning the glass.

At the end of the evening self-study, Gu Zijin walked Gu Zipei and walked home holding my hand.

"Zhen Zhen, tell me honestly, do you like Lu Li?" Gu Zijin got straight to the point.

"What are you talking nonsense? Lu Li and I are just classmates, and Lu Li is just classmates, just like me and Gu Zipei, Chen Fei, and Qian Cheng, very normal interactions between classmates....."

Gu Zijin didn't interrupt me, he looked at me with a smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes seemed to say, "You continue to make it up, I'll listen." ”

I couldn't say any more, so I had to surrender, "Okay, I'll admit, I like Lu Li." ”

Gu Zijin laughed haha, "Zhen Zhen, you like to lie since you were a child. There is a saying - explanation is disguise. ”

"Then you're going to keep it a secret for me." I put my hand to my lips and made a sealing motion towards Gu Zijin.

"No problem," Gu Zijin gestured to me with an OK gesture, and then sighed, "Hey, what about my poor brother, he has liked you since the first grade of elementary school." ”

"Hey, the emotional thing is reluctant." I learned from Gu Zijin and sighed.

"Zhen Zhen, don't you think Lu Li is quite mysterious?" Gu Zijin turned the topic back to Lu Li, "He arrives at school very early every day, he basically sleeps in class, he never takes notes, and he doesn't see anyone as soon as he gets out of school in the afternoon, but he takes the first place in the exam." Except for playing with the three of us, I didn't seem to see him communicate with the rest of the class. He has such a strange personality, how did you like him? ”

The Lu Li in Gu Zijin's mouth is indeed different from most of the boys around me, but the Lu Li I see is not exactly like this - the way he plays the piano seriously in the music classroom, the way he carefully peels off the toffee and hands it to me, and the way he grins at me in the playground.

Thinking of these scenes, I couldn't help but smirk, "The ancients said that 'I don't know what to do, I go deep', and there is no reason to like someone." ”

When Gu Zijin heard my words, he immediately made a vomiting expression.

The two of us talked a lot about Lu Li and Chen Yao along the way, sharing each other's secrets and the girl's thoughts. Sixteen-year-olds, in the face of ignorant feelings, it seems that as long as we mention that person, our hearts will become extremely happy, we don't need to know whether he will like me, as long as I can see you in my world, we will be content.

The last period on Friday afternoon was physical education class, and after the physical education teacher announced free activities, Gu Zijin mysteriously pulled me to the corner of the playground.

Gu Zijin took out a pink letter from his pocket and whispered: "Zhen Zhen, I have inquired, Chen Yao's class today is a music class, and we will wait for him in the music room after class." Then you help me get this letter to him. ”

"You really asked me to help you deliver love letters? What if I get misunderstood? ”

"No, I signed the letter. All you have to do is hand it to him for me. ”

"But I haven't seen Senior Chen Yao."

"Ask their classmates."

"Zijin, can I refuse?"

"If you want for a while what you like about Lu Li to be known to everyone in this playground....."

"I'll deliver it!"

Gu Zijin gently touched my head and nodded with satisfaction.

As soon as the bell rang for the end of class, Gu Zijin took my hand and ran towards the music classroom.

When I arrived at the door of the music classroom, Gu Zijin stuffed the letter into my hand, and before I could react, she was already hiding at the corner of the staircase. I had no choice but to stand at the door with the letter in my tow, and as people came out of the classroom one after another, I craned my neck and poked in.

I casually stopped a girl and asked, "Hello senior sister, is Senior Chen Yao gone?" ”

The senior sister glanced at the classroom, then put her eyes on the conspicuous pink envelope in my hand, and smiled, "Not yet." ”

I hid the letter behind me and asked, "Which one, can you point it down?" ”

The senior sister seemed to be accustomed to blindly sending love letters because of hearsay like me, and she pointed to the boy who was packing his schoolbag in the third row of the seat: "It's him." ”

I didn't see what the boy looked like because he had his head down, but I made a note of his blue and white school bag.

I said thank you to my senior sister, and after cheering me on, she smiled and walked away.

There were still a few people in the classroom who hadn't left, and I was too embarrassed to go in directly, so I leaned against the wall outside the classroom. After waiting for a while, a boy with a blue and white schoolbag in one hand walked out slowly. I first confirmed the color of the schoolbag, and after confirming that this person was Chen Yao, I quickly looked at him a few times, and found that his appearance was not as good as Gu Zijin described, but only at a medium level, and I secretly sighed in my heart about the aesthetics of the girls in our school.

But Chen Yao was about to walk past me, I didn't have time to think about it, I held up Gu Zijin's letter and put it in front of him, "Senior, your letter." ”

Chen Yao stood still, glanced at me, and didn't take it immediately, but slowly spoke, "Are you?" ”

The students who passed by began to look at us frequently, and I was afraid of being recognized by acquaintances, so I stuffed the letter into Chen Yao's arms and hurriedly said, "You don't need to know who I am, I'm just an errand runner." ”

After saying that, I was about to run away, but when I turned around, I saw Lu Li standing not far away, looking at me with a frown.

I suddenly felt a little weak, and walked up to greet Lu Li, "Lu Li, what a coincidence, why are you here?" ”

"The music teacher asked me to come to her to discuss the piano competition." Lu Li said expressionlessly.

I hadn't heard Lu Li mention the competition before, so I asked in surprise, "You want to participate in the piano competition?" ”

After Lu Li let out a "um" word from his nose, he stepped forward.

When he passed by me, he suddenly lowered his voice and said, "So you like this type." ”

Lu Li's back was to me, and I couldn't see his expression, but I knew that he saw me handing a love letter to Chen Yao just now, and he must have misunderstood that I liked Chen Yao.

I was about to explain, but Lu Li had already walked into the classroom on his long legs. Chen Yao has left, and the students in the music class are gone. The door to the classroom was empty, like my heart at the moment.

At this time, the culprit Gu Zijin walked up to me, patted me on the shoulder and asked, "Zhen Zhen, has the letter been delivered?" ”

I nodded, a little uneasy in my heart, could Lu Li be angry?

Gu Zijin affectionately took my arm, put it on my shoulder and said, "Zhen Zhen, when I catch up with Chen Yao, I will definitely invite you to a big meal." ”

I nodded again, thinking that I must find a chance to explain to Lu Li.

On the way back to the classroom, Gu Zijin was still immersed in the excitement of catching up with Chen Yao, obviously not noticing my loss, chattering about Chen Yao next to me, and I responded absentmindedly.

During the evening self-study, I took out my mobile phone and planned to send a text message to Lu Li to explain, but I found that I had known Lu Li for more than a month, and I had not asked him for the number, so I stuffed the phone back into my pocket in frustration.

In order to get rid of this annoying emotion, I took out MP3 to listen to the song, which happened to be broadcast to Jay Chou's "Can't Open My Mouth", the lyrics were clear, and they poked my mind at the moment:

I just can't open my mouth and let her know

It's as simple as that, I can't do it

My whole heart hangs in the air, and I can only watch from afar

I can do it all, but that person is no longer me

I know, like a lot of crushes, I'm very cowardly.
