Chapter 36: A Birthday Present

On Friday morning, when Zhao Hui arrived at the school, she saw that there was no one around, so she put the letter she wrote to Li Zhenguo on the windowsill outside the communication room. Her heart was very uneasy, and she didn't know when Li Zhenguo would get the letter. After the third period, Zhao Hui took Wang Lei to the campus. When she arrived at the front of the communication room, Zhao Hui smiled and said, "I'll go read the letter." Zhao Hui came to the windowsill, flipped through the letters on the windowsill, and found that the letter she wrote to Li Zhenguo was gone, and she thought happily: The letter I put here has been taken. Zhao Hui happily and excitedly pulled Wang Lei away, and she whispered to Wang Lei: "I wrote a letter to our classmates, and I put it there myself this morning." Wang Lei lowered her eyelids and whispered, "I've done this too!" At this time, Zhao Hui raised her head and saw Han Ting and Wang Manli on the campus downstairs, they were looking at the gate, Zhao Hui thought: What are they standing here for? They must have seen it when I read the letter just now, is it a coincidence? Why are they so annoying, I hate them more and more.

At the end of school in the afternoon, Zhao Hui wanted to buy Li Zhenguo a birthday gift. She went to the Northland Mall alone, and she stood in front of the counter selling stationery and looked at the pens inside. A saleswoman came over and asked with a smile, "Do you want to buy a fountain pen?" Zhao Hui pointed to the pen in the glass cabinet and said, "Hmm! I'll take a look at the stainless steel shell pen of this hero brand. "The salesman pointed to those pens and said, these are hero brand pens, the nib has medium and thin nibs, do you want the nib to be thinner or thicker?" Zhao Hui smiled and said, "I'll take a look at the fountain pen with a thinner tip." The salesman took out a pen and handed it to Zhao Hui and said, "Try it with ink!" Zhao Hui nodded, she picked up the pen dipped in ink and tried to write a few words, she felt that the nib was too thin, so she said: "This nib is too thin, take a medium fine and I'll try it." The salesman took out a medium-thin fountain pen and gave it to Zhao Hui, who dipped it in ink and wrote a few words, feeling very satisfied, so he said, "Just buy this fountain pen!" She took out the money and gave it to the salesperson and put the pen in her bag.

When standing in line the next morning, Zhao Hui couldn't see Li Zhenguo across the team of several classes, she thought: Will he be embarrassed because I called him Zhenguo in yesterday's letter, no, that's what his mother called him, I do usually think about him and always silently recite these two words. The team of several classes left, Zhao Hui looked at Li Zhenguo happily, he was also looking this way, his face was so handsome, fully reflecting the temperament of a man.

After school at noon, I wanted to buy movie tickets, but when I saw that the movie of the day was "The Story of the Silly Boy", the name of this movie made people want to laugh before they saw it, Zhao Hui didn't want to watch this movie, the next day's movie was "The Strange Heroes", but the movie office of the movie theater did not sell movie tickets for the next day, so she had to leave.

When it was almost 1:40 p.m., Zhao Hui made two cups of tea and hurriedly rode her bicycle to the meter factory club. It was exactly 1:40 before arriving at the movie theater, he hadn't come yet, Zhao Hui's heart had a kind of uneasiness, she rode a bicycle around the open space, and then stopped, she looked at the watch at 1:45, she thought: Why hasn't he come yet? How can Li Zhenguo be like this? Oh! Did he not receive the letter? Is someone playing tricks? No way! Did he receive the letter and pretend not to receive it? If so, I'd rather have the car crashed and killed on the road in front of the theater. Why hasn't Li Zhenguo come yet? Is it inseparable from their family to celebrate his birthday? Ay! Li Zhenguo, come on! Zhao Hui's tears were already soaked in her eyes, her nose was sour, and her eyes looked at the road extending to the south, looking forward to his appearance. The time is so long, one by one pedestrians passed, and there was no shadow of Li Zhenguo.

At this time, Zhao Hui saw Li Zhenguo coming from a distance on the highway, he was riding fast, he had already crossed the highway, Zhao Hui tried her best to hold back her tears and not let her fall, wanting to swallow the tears into her stomach. When Li Zhenguo was about to reach him, she didn't dare to look at him anymore, turned her head and shifted her gaze. When Zhao Hui looked at Li Zhenguo again, he had already arrived in front of Zhao Hui, he stopped, Zhao Hui smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn't come!" Li Zhenguo didn't speak, but when he got to Zhao Hui's side, he rode on the car, and said with his right foot propped up: "Let's go!" Zhao Hui thought: Hey! He's a man! Just came, and it's time to go. Zhao Hui said a little unhappily: "Leave now?" Let's wait a little longer before leaving! Li Zhenguo stepped back, and Zhao Hui asked, "What time is it today?" Li Zhenguo thought for a while and said, "No. 11, what's wrong?" Zhao Hui looked at him excitedly and said, "Is it your birthday today!" Li Zhenguo smiled and said, "What's wrong with your birthday?" My mom, my dad, and my brother can't remember my birthday, so they can't. Zhao Hui took out the pen in the plastic box from her pocket: "This pen is given to you as a birthday gift." At this time, the lid of the box rang, and Zhao Hui lowered her head with a smile and said, "Hey! What's wrong? The lid fell off and I put it on. Zhao Hui put the lid of the box and handed it to Li Zhenguo and said, "Here you go!" Li Zhenguo took the box, opened the lid and looked at it and said, "Let you break the bank." Zhao Hui said: "What's the cost? If you want to look at it, take it and wish you a happy birthday! Li Zhenguo put the box in his schoolbag and asked, "You don't seem to have a birthday this year?" Zhao Hui didn't hear clearly, and asked rhetorically, "Huh? What? Li Zhenguo explained: "It's nothing, Meng Hua said that he was going to have a birthday that day!" I haven't bought anything yet! Zhao Hui smiled bitterly and said, "Really? I'm going to send a birthday card to Wang Lifang. Li Zhenguo asked: "Wang Lifang's birthday is in the twenties?" Zhao Hui thought for a while and said, "No. 20." They were silent. Zhao Hui smiled and said, "Go to our house, right?" Li Zhenguo shook his head and said, "No, you also know that I don't like to go to other people's homes, and I don't want to go to He Fangbo's family or your family." Zhao Hui asked, "You don't want to go to our house." Li Zhenguo said: "No, I won't go." Zhao Hui asked sadly: "Don't you go to my house during the winter vacation?" Li Zhenguo didn't speak, they were silent for a while, and Li Zhenguo asked, "How is He Fangbo doing now?" Zhao Hui said: "I didn't go to their house either, and I don't know." Li Zhenguo said: "I haven't been to their house for a long time. Zhao Hui looked at Li Zhenguo's face and asked, "Why don't you go and play with He Fangbo?" Li Zhenguo said: "I don't have time. Zhao Hui asked again: "He Fangbo didn't go to play with you either." Li Zhenguo said: "No." Li Zhenguo raised his head and looked at Zhao Hui, his raised eyebrows and big eyes made her so tempting. They looked at each other, and Li Zhenguo asked again: "How did you do in the exam?" Zhao Hui shook her head and said, "You didn't do well in the exam, did you do well?" Li Zhenguo replied: "No, now I don't study very well, mathematics, foreign languages, physics are not good, mathematics has just passed, foreign languages have just passed, you don't know physics, right?" He stopped talking, and Zhao Hui asked, "How is the physics?" He was stunned for a moment, and replied in a low voice: "I am the worst in physics, and I failed the physics exam." After the last midterm exam, my class teacher said that he wanted to talk to me, but he didn't look for me yet! Zhao Hui said a little anxiously: "Then-if you don't know physics, ask the teacher if you don't understand it!" Let the teacher explain, what are you afraid of? Li Zhenguo said: "No, I can do the usual questions, but I can't do it when it comes to the exam." Zhao Hui said softly and slowly: "Maybe your brain will be messed up when it comes to the exam, you should look at the theorems and formulas, and then do the usual problems." They were silent for a while, and Li Zhenguo pushed the bicycle and said, "Let's go!" Zhao Hui pushed the bicycle and followed Li Zhenguo across the road. After walking for a while, Zhao Hui said, "You better go to my house and sit for a while!" Li Zhenguo said stubbornly: "I don't like to go to other people's homes, and if I don't go, I won't go." Zhao Hui said angrily and funny: "Don't forget it, or you wait for me later, I'll get the schoolbag." Li Zhenguo smiled and said, "Hmm! Go get your bag! ”

Zhao Hui crossed the highway and returned home, suddenly remembering that the first class in the afternoon was physical education, and I heard the teacher say that I wanted to check my eyesight, so I could not take my schoolbag, but I still took it.

Zhao Hui rode on the highway and disappeared Li Zhenguo, she thought angrily: Did Li Zhenguo already leave first? There were a lot of vegetable sellers on the side of the road, perhaps he was afraid of being seen. When he was about to reach the bridge, Zhao Hui saw him slowly riding in front of him. When I arrived at the bridge, I stopped, and I got on my bicycle again, because there were many people, so I crossed the South Gate Bridge to catch up with him. Zhao Hui called softly: "Li Zhenguo, let's go!" Li Zhenguo glanced at him, and they talked while riding.

Zhao Hui asked with a smile: "Did you measure 800 meters in physical education class?" Li Zhenguo looked at Zhao Hui and said: "Unexpectedly, it will be tested next Saturday, you just need to pass, and the college entrance examination standards are also up to standard." Zhao Hui said "oh" and said, "Your classmates are quite active. Li Zhenguo said boldly: "Those girls are quite capable of making trouble." Zhao Hui smiled and said: "The students in our class are more down-to-earth, and the students in your class have become active as soon as they are influenced." Li Zhenguo said: "Hey, they are that kind of people! ”

Zhao Hui and Li Zhenguo have been riding very slowly, and when they arrived at school, Zhao Hui suddenly asked: "There is a good movie tomorrow, do you want to watch it." Li Zhenguo said casually: "Who knows if they will look at Yue Dong or not?" Ask him what he does? His voice was very small, and Zhao Hui did not answer.

After putting the bicycle, Zhao Hui picked up the schoolbag and waited for Li Zhenguo, Li Zhenguo had already picked up the schoolbag, and at this time, the "fat classmate" in their class walked over to him from the west. Zhao Hui was a little embarrassed, so she walked through the street and walked into the school gate.
