Chapter 16: Reunion
Looking at the sudden heavy rain in front of him, the Sultan rummaged through his backpack. I can only weakly admit that I didn't bring an umbrella. The naΓ―ve will joke, she is coming to the new school for the first time today, is she going to be late? But if she ran to the school 50 meters away, she would definitely get wet, so she had to stand in the bus stop and wait.
Fortunately, the rain was just passing by, and it stopped in a few minutes. The Sultan looked at the watch on his wrist, there were still ten minutes left for class, and it seemed that he was inevitably late. Pushing the small suitcase, I found my dormitory and dropped off my luggage. I didn't have time to tidy up, so I rushed to the classroom.
The school is big and beautiful. When she came to sign up two days earlier, she had a general visit, and the dormitory was very close to the teaching building. By the time she arrived in the thirty-ninth class of high school, Sultan felt that her back was already slightly sweaty, and her bangs were a little against her forehead.
Sure enough, she was late. Standing at the door of the classroom, she looked at the teacher on the podium, and the teacher and the class looked at her.
Before she could speak, the female teacher on the podium said, "Find a seat and sit down, we are going to start the roll call." β
The Sultan breathed a sigh of relief, there were still three seats in the classroom, all at the back, and she picked a girl's seat next to her. As soon as she sat down on this side, she heard the grinding sound of her steps coming to a sudden stop because she was walking too fast.
"Report," two different male voices said at the same time. The Sultan had just hung up his bag and looked up at the source of the sound. After seeing it clearly, his heart shrank sharply, as if he had been pricked by a needle. made her face, which was slightly flushed from running just now, instantly turn white, and even her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.
The Sultan lowered his head, bit his lip, and clenched his fists slightly, holding back his emotions from leaking. But the heart is turbulent: how could it be them? How could it be them? The strange gazes of others, the back of Ji Xun leaving, and the scene of his mother being hit by a car, these pictures suddenly became clear again. It was like a flood that drowned her, making it difficult for the Sultan to breathe.
"Are you alright?" Suddenly, a low voice came from the side. The Sultan came back to his senses and saw a hand holding a tissue.
Looking at the owner of the hand, a girl with shoulder-length short hair, her smart eyes showed a slight concern, and the expression on her face was very friendly. Seeing the Sultan looking over, he smiled and showed two small tiger teeth.
"Why did you suddenly shed tears? Uncomfortable? The girl asked.
Hearing the girl's words, the Sultan subconsciously touched his face, wet! She quickly wrapped a tissue to wipe away her tears. Shaking his head, he showed a shallow smile: "It's okay, I just suddenly have uncomfortable eyes." Thank you! β
All the students arrived, and the teacher began to take the roll call with the list. When she was called, the Sultan stood up and replied, and many people looked back at her, but the Sultan didn't care, since she had gone from bean sprouts to thorny roses, people looked back at her, and she was used to it. Besides, the Sultan's current mind is not on this at all, and she still hopes in her heart that those two people just look like them.
When the teacher clicked on Ji Xun, the Sultan's heart couldn't help but shrink again. In the end, fate still likes to catch people, and they met again, one year in junior high school, and another year in high school. If nothing had happened, she would have been happy if they had been good friends and would have been in the same class again!
But there are no ifs in the world, so she only feels uncomfortable now. After the roll call, the teacher began to arrange the seats, and after lining all the students, regardless of gender, according to their height, they entered the classroom in twos and twos.
The Sultan is already 1.68 meters tall, and he is considered tall here. The girl who was temporarily at the same table as him just now was in front of him. Sixty people, only nineteen girls, a clear disproportionateness. But there is no way, these people are the best in the whole city. Just look at the results, not men and women, it's good to have this ratio.
The Sultan and the girl sat together again, in the penultimate row of the fifth group. Sultan only felt the muscles in her back stiff now, because Ji Xun and Jiang Nan were sitting behind her left and right, and she didn't know if Ji Xun and Jiang Nan recognized her. Her appearance now is too different from three years ago, but even so, if you are very familiar with her, you can still recognize her. After all, even if the name of the same person is changed, no matter how big the appearance changes, there will still be some shadows of the past.
The seat was arranged, and the female teacher with short ear-length hair pushed her glasses, coughed lightly, and said, "From today onwards, sixty of you will be classmates." You'll spend the year ahead together. You are all the best from various schools, and your grades are very tight. I hope that in the coming year, you can unite and love, learn from each other, and make progress together. With that, he took out a piece of chalk from the chalk box and wrote the words Du Yulin on the blackboard. The handwriting is delicate and powerful, very similar to her mature and generous appearance.
"This is my name, and from today onwards, I am your homeroom teacher. At the same time, I will teach you the language. After saying that, he put the chalk back in his hand. Continued: "Since most of you are new classmates, there will be no class this morning. You first familiarize yourself with the environment, gather in the classroom at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, we will officially start the class, if you have nothing to do, you can disperse. β
"Teacher Du" Just when everyone was about to disperse, the Sultan suddenly stood up and shouted.
"Sultan, what's wrong with you?" This girl's grades are the best of all girls, not to mention her appearance. Look at the bunnies in the class, looking at people one by one, she is not blind, she naturally knows the name of such an outstanding person.
"Can I not sit here?" The Sultan's voice sounded calm. But only she knows that even if she is given a day, she can't calm down.
Du Yulin listened to her question, and habitually pushed her glasses again: Can you tell me the reason? She asked herself if there was nothing wrong with this seating arrangement. The Sultan pursed his lips for a few seconds before replying:
"The faces of the students in the back are too ostentatious and their eyes are too focused, which makes people feel uncomfortable." As soon as she finished speaking, the class erupted collectively: Oh...... , and then everyone looked at her with inexplicable eyes.
Even Du Yulin couldn't help but laugh, she waved her hand and signaled them to be quiet. "Sultan, in our class, there are more boys and fewer girls. If you want to say that you look swaggering, you are actually on par with Ji Xun, the classmate behind you. The disproportionality of the number of people leads to the fact that there are definitely many more eyes looking at you than looking at Ji Xun. In my opinion, instead of separating the two points of focus, it is better to concentrate them together to save everyone from being distracted. After Du Yulin finished speaking, the lively personality in the class began to laugh and laugh: It's too right, it's too right...
"Alright, okay, so be it. Ji Xun, you come to my office and put the class schedule on it. After saying that, he smiled at the Sultan and walked away with the copy. "Ask for Collection, Ask for Recommendation"
