Prologue, Chapter 4: Confession

The head teacher stood on the podium for a while before feeling an inexplicable strangeness, and quickly escaped from the classroom and hid in the office. As the time progressed minute by minute, a few students walked into the classroom one after another. Some of them I knew and some I met on the road but couldn't even name them, but everyone who walked into the classroom would look at me strangely and sit back in their seats, and the more often I felt like I was a monster.

"Why did you come so early today!" The sweet voice like a spring breeze calmed my heart down at once, Meng Yiting sat quietly next to me, put down her schoolbag and began to organize the things to be used in class.

"Didn't sleep well last night. I said lightly.

"Is it because you didn't do well in the midterm exam?" Meng Yiting turned her head and asked.

"No, it's because ......" I admit I couldn't really say.

"Because of what?" Meng Yiting continued to ask persistently.

"I have something very important to tell you, but now that class is about to start, I'll talk to you after lunch. I said as I looked at the teacher who was about to walk into the classroom.

"Oh. Meng Yiting replied, lowered her head, and didn't know what Lu Dao was messing with.

We didn't say a word until the class teacher called me to the office during recess, and when I saw my parents sitting in the office, I knew that it was because I hadn't come home last night.

"Shengtian, why didn't you go home yesterday?, where did you go all night?" my mother recognized me as soon as she walked in, and then she was questioned with a face.

"I ......," I really didn't know how to answer for a while.

"What are you, tell me what the hell you did last night?" asked my mother angrily.

"I went to my classmate's house last night to play. "I made up a reason in desperation.

"Then you shouldn't not stay home all night!" Mom's anger didn't seem to get better for a while, or my reason was a little ...... I admit my reasons are a bit far-fetched.

"That...... Later, it was too late, and I stayed at his house. I whispered.

"Then I should call back!" my mom looked at me suspiciously.

"Do you know that your mother and I didn't sleep last night, we almost went to the police, early this morning your mother and I asked for leave to come to the school to see if you are there, and call back before going out to play. Dad said earnestly.

"I forgot...... I'm sorry, I won't do that next time. "I suddenly felt a little selfish, and I could feel the deep love and affection of my dad from his plain words. They never wanted to abandon me, but I was going to abandon them, was it right or wrong for me to do so?

"Who did you go to yesterday?" I thought it was okay, but I didn't expect the head teacher to suddenly ask.

"That...... It's Chen Hao. "My mood right now is like playing a gamble, my bet is on my future and happiness.

At this time, Meng Yiting walked into the office with a large stack of homework books. Meng Yiting glanced at me and my parents, and when she turned around and was about to leave the office, she was stopped by the head teacher.

"Meng Yiting, you go and call Chen Hao. The head teacher said.

"Oh, I know. Meng Yiting said yes and walked out of the office.

"Homeroom teacher, I'm here. Is there something wrong?" Chen Hao walked into the office after about two minutes, glanced at me and my parents standing there with a little meaning, and asked a little strangely.

"Zhuo Shengtian didn't go home all night yesterday, he said he went to your house to play?" asked the head teacher.

"Oh...... Yesterday I asked Zhuo Shengtian to go to my house to play, and then I forgot the time a little bit, and it was already late when I reflected it, and I thought it was unsafe for him to come home so late so I let him live in my house. Chen Hao said with a smile.

I have to say that Chen Hao and I just now have a heart, and we don't need to point it, if he is a passable girl, I think I will not hesitate to fall in love with her. The head teacher listened to Chen Hao's words and believed it, and I said a few words, and asked me and Chen Hao to go back, and my parents also left the school in a hurry because they knew that I had nothing to do.

"Dude, I really thanked you just now. I said gratefully.

"You still need to say thank you for your relationship with me!By the way, which school did you choose?" Chen Hao said indifferently.

"This ...... I haven't picked it yet. I said weakly.

"It's okay, just tell me when you've chosen. Chen Hao said with a smile.

People are always like this, they don't feel reluctant until they want to leave, and they don't feel precious until they really leave. I just discovered that the sincere friendship with Chen Hao also involved my heart, and the balance of my fate began to waver again.

The third year of junior high school is very intense, and the period after lunch is the only free time. I made an appointment with Meng Yiting to meet in the grove next to the playground after dinner at the end of class in the morning, and I didn't have the appetite to eat anyway, so I waited here early. After looking around for about ten minutes, I finally saw a shadow float in, like an elf shuttling through the forest.

"What the hell are you calling here?" Meng Yiting walked up to me and asked.

"I ...... I don't know what to say...... "It's finally time to wait, but I'm a little cowardly."

"By the way, can you tell me why you didn't go home last night? I heard that you went to Chen Hao's house to play and forgot the time, I am not the head teacher, I believe that it was just Chen Hao who said that in order to protect you. Meng Yiting asked.

"Would you believe me when I said I walked down the street all night last night?" I asked with a wry smile.

"For what, didn't you promise to study hard for our future?" Meng Yiting asked with a little anger.

"It's because of our future that I don't dare to go home. I lowered my head and said helplessly.

"What the hell is going on?" Meng Yiting's face was a little better, and she looked at me and asked.

"Look at this......" I handed the information to Meng Yiting's hand.

"This is ......" Meng Yiting's expression also became strange, and after she finished reading it, the document slipped from her hand and fell to the ground.

"You know now that I didn't go home last night for something. I looked helplessly at her pale face.

"That'...... Then what are you going to do?" Meng Yiting looked at me and asked.

"I don't know what to do...... If it weren't for the fact that you didn't have the courage to step into the school gate today, I thought a lot last night that I couldn't leave, and the only way I could think of it now was to run away from home. I had a lot of courage to say.

"No, how can you run away from home!" Meng Yiting immediately shook her head and said.

"I'm going to leave the city without leaving home, and then I'll never see you again. I don't want to be bound by fate...... Yiting, this is the first time I've called you that...... I like you!" I said firmly, looking at her face.

"Shengtian, I'...... I like you too!" Meng Yiting hugged me bitterly, and crystal tears fell on my shoulder.

"Yiting, come with me. I hugged her tightly and whispered in her ear.

"Hmm......" Meng Yiting's voice was very small, but I still heard it, and a smile of relief appeared on my face. Meng Yiting is the only courage I have to resist fate, if she gives up, then I will be completely hopeless.

"Dear students, teachers ......" The sudden voice frightened Meng Yiting into leaving my body quickly.

"Next is the song ordering time......" turned out to be the voice of the radio station in the afternoon.

Meng Yiting and I raised our heads and smiled at each other, and I couldn't help but hold her hand when I looked at her beautiful smile. Meng Yiting's whole body trembled, but she didn't resist. The two of us walked hand in hand on the track of the playground, when a melodious song came from the radio: "Maybe holding hands may not be easy to walk in the previous life." Maybe with the road of companionship, there will be more busyness in this life. So holding hands, we will walk together in the next life. So with the road of mixing, there is no time to turn back ......".

I felt a hint of warmth in my weak, boneless little hands, and I knew that I was going to fight for her all my life. I also know that the road ahead is full of thorns and bumps, but I believe that as long as she is by my side, I will be fearless of everything......
