Chapter 44: Cram School
There was no traffic jam along the way, and the speed of the return trip was faster than when I came.
They went back to Guanglin Yigao first.
They haven't come back yet, and Lao Wang has already reported the good news to the principal on the phone in advance.
The principal greeted the teachers and students who had no classes at the door.
In the endless stream of praise, there is a face as still as stagnant water. Gao Wei specially fell to the back, he couldn't hold his face, he had participated in the essay contest for so many years, and he didn't even have a consolation prize.
replaced Lin Xiao, and won the first prize for the first time.
The car slowly drove into the school gate, and under everyone's gaze, Lin Xiao, An Ran, and Lao Wang got out of the car one after another.
"Who's that girl? Why did you come back with the convoy? "
"You don't know, her name is An Ran, and Lin Xiao is in the third (5th) class of high school, I heard that the two are ambiguous."
"Ambiguous? I think it's the woman who posted it upside down, and they all chased it to the neighboring city and came back with them. "
has the same topicality as Lin Xiao winning the first prize, as well as An Ran's identity.
There have been a lot of rumors about Lin Xiao and An Ran before, but they have not been confirmed, and at this time, An Ran got out of the car with them, and pushed himself to the forefront.
"Don't think too much, Lin Xiao and I are just classmates." An Ran followed Lao Wang and got out of the car, and glanced at the eyes of the girls.
There is envy, resentment, and ill will.
My heart hurts, but An Ran forced himself to smile, "We have always been classmates, and there is no transgression, I hope you don't guess it"
That's right, but Lin Xiao listened to it so awkwardly, as if they had nothing but a classmate relationship.
Four eyes, tangyuan, and Wang Zhonghan rushed up, and after Lin Xiao punched them in the chest one by one, he took out the envelope containing the prize money of the competition.
"Oh, I'll pay you back." I just repaid the 5,000 yuan I borrowed last time.
Wang Zhonghan didn't answer, "Ouch, you don't have to pay it back, what's going on with grinding and chirping." "
"Nope."
On the issue of principle, Lin Xiao never backed down, and Wang Zhonghan reluctantly accepted the money.
"Lin Xiao, you're okay with everything," Wang Zhonghan glanced at him, "It's those damn principles, it's very annoying." "
When Lin Xiao turned around to look for An Ran, he found that she had gone far from Lao Wang.
Wang Zhonghan followed his gaze, his eyes narrowed into a line, "What's the matter with you two?" "
"It's fine."
"How can it be okay when I'm blind?"
yes, how can it be okay? The previous pile was just Lin Xiao's self-hypnosis.
Lin Xiao wanted to catch up, but the principal was too happy and didn't want to let people go, every time Lin Xiao retreated a little, he immediately arrested people back.
His lips were almost on his ears, looking at the smug posture, he couldn't wait to offer Lin Xiao as a mascot, "Look, this is the first place winner in the essay competition." "
"The name of Guanglin Yigao finally became an instant hit this year."
It was already noon after the party, and there were still three classes in the afternoon. Lin Xiao lay on the bed tossing and turning and didn't fall asleep.
The first period in the afternoon was a Chinese class, and after class, Lin Xiao originally wanted to talk to An Ran, but-
"Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao? Lin Xiao...... Stinky boy, come here, alas, why haven't you come yet? "
As soon as the bell finished class, Lao Wang called Lin Xiao's name, Lin Xiao silently looked at An Ran's back, and was a little helpless, so he could only turn around and walk onto the podium.
"Teacher Wang?"
Lao Wang pulled Lin Xiao into the corner, looked around, and made sure that no classmates saw and heard before saying: "I have run a cram school, outside the school, specially tutoring you who have the potential to rush to the top of the book, you have nothing to do on the weekend." ”
"Cram school?" Lin Xiao thought he had heard it wrong, but after Lao Wang nodded, he frowned.
Lin Xiao pondered: "If you let the school know about this, you won't be able to keep your job."
"So I only tutor you students with potential, and even if the school finds out later, I will die a well-deserved death."
Lin Xiao was instantly solemn towards Lao Wang. To a certain extent, Lao Wang was the best teacher Lin Xiao had ever met, and he left all his youth and blood on the three-foot podium.
"Okay."
"You promised?" Lao Wang was ecstatic, "At eight o'clock in the morning on Saturday, No. 8 Dining Street, I will pick you up." "
Lin Xiao was very busy in the afternoon, and as soon as the bell rang after class, classmates from all over the world came in, either to say goodbye or ask questions about their studies.
Even the four-eyed dumplings were squeezed to the periphery, and they couldn't squeeze in if they wanted to.
", this level of popularity, it's amazing, I don't know if I think it's a star ......" Tang Yuan looked at the layers of people on the periphery, and couldn't help but sigh, among them, female classmates were the most.
"Lin Xiao."
"Lin Xiao, Lin Xiao ......"
The screams one after another, wave after wave, are comparable to those of stars. Facing the onlookers who were playing monkey-like fun, Lin Xiao smiled indifferently, and when there was a slight gap, his eyes wanted to pass through the crowd, but he never got his wish.
Enron.
Enron.
At the end of school, Lin Xiao ignored the eating romance from the four eyes and walked quickly to the door.
He blocked the road to Enron, "Let's go home together." "
"Hmm." Although An Ran agreed, his footsteps did not stop, and his eyes did not look at Lin Xiao from beginning to end.
"Enron." Lin Xiao turned sideways to block the way, "What do I have to your satisfaction, don't be afraid that I'm unhappy, just tell me, don't be inexplicably cold, I can't stand it." ”
God gave him the opportunity to be reborn, so that he could make up for the regrets of his previous life, not to make them feel wronged.
Suddenly, An Ran looked at Lin Xiao suddenly, and the grievance in his eyes was fully revealed, "I ......"
"Enron!"
An unexpected voice rang out, coming from behind him. The two turned around and saw Tang Yuan panting and chasing after him, "Enron, Enron." He ran to Enron's side and handed her the phone in his hand.
"Your phone."
An Ran frowned, "How did my call get to you?" "She has a cell phone.
"I don't know, let's take it quickly, it seems to be in a hurry."
An Ran took the phone, I didn't know what the person inside said, I saw her frowning slightly, and the more she frowned, the tighter she became.
"Thank you." An Ran returned the phone to Tang Yuan, turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
"Shall we go together?" Lin Xiao chased after him.
"No," An Ran said in a hoarse voice, pulling back his windswept hair, "I can do it myself." ”
Lin Xiao wanted to stretch out his hand to hold it, but finally retreated, until An Ran's back faded away, Lin Xiao closed his palms, feeling empty, and his heart was also empty.
Although Lin Xiao's appearance when he went home was no different from usual, Xiao Hong was still sensitive to his abnormality.
For example, when she eats, she will always be in a daze with chopsticks, for example, when she watches TV with her, her eyes are always wandering on the phone, for example, when she is doing homework, she will stare at the collection of mistakes she has made.
People are more reticent and gloomy than usual.
"What are you waiting for?" Xiao Hong couldn't help but ask.
"Nope." Lin Xiao continued to bury himself in his homework.
"Yesterday, the teacher called and said that you won the first prize for your essay, and you didn't share the joy with your mother?"
"Oh, Mom, I won the first prize, I'm very happy, I can get extra points in the college entrance examination."
With such a perfunctory answer, Xiao Hong just wanted to laugh when she heard it, "And then?" ”
"And then?" Lin Xiao realized it later.
"Alright, let's do my homework, I'll go wash the dishes."
