I can't understand how two contradictory moods can coexist. On the one hand, I was determined to stay away from Jing Yehang and the troubles related to him, but on the other hand, I couldn't let go of the questions that had arisen because of him. His secrecy did not discourage me, but made me even more anxious to find out why. I have to be clear, I have no intention of digging into his secrets. All I'm looking for is what most of my classmates know. I don't think it's too much, after all, no one wants to be the only one in the dark.

For the next few days, Jing Yehang showed up in the classroom on time, which forced my curiosity to be put on the shelf. Even though he slept almost all the time, I still didn't dare to act rashly. It would be embarrassing if he suddenly woke up and found me asking about him......

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the eve of the monthly exam, Jing Yehang has taken sick leave, and I am so busy preparing for the exam that I have no time to take care of the hungry curiosity. On the day the results were announced, I found the full name of the boy named Yu Yang from the top 50 red lists in the class. Liu Yuyang...... From their words, it can be guessed that he has nothing to do with Jing Yehang's uncle, and is a relative of Jing Yehang's father, but he has the same surname as Jing Yehang...... What is their relationship? I racked my brains, but I still didn't have a clue. Forget it, the intricacies of kinship are not something I can imagine. I decisively let go of this pointless question in favor of something more intriguing. The seventh in the whole class, compared to the nameless Jing Yehang on the list, it is indeed much better, but no matter how good it is, no matter how good it is, no matter how much no one sees it, it will not treat his relatives with such a bad attitude...... You need to know that in full view of everyone, the act of him taking his accomplices to find trouble with Jing Yehang was not a radical method that he had to use because he hated iron and steel, but pure ridicule and humiliation. Why on earth did he want to salute the night sail like this? Is there any irreconcilable transgression between them? Thinking of Jing Yehang's lazy and indisputable appearance, I immediately denied this possibility. Could it be that Jing Yehang pretended to be sick and didn't come to school just to avoid him? Although Liu Yuyang never broke into our classroom again, I could often see him and his accomplices wandering in the hallway outside our classrooms during recess. It seems that his attention to Jing Yehang's movements has reached a terrifying level. What kind of old grudge can make a man like him not hesitate to leave behind the colorful campus life, and think about how to make Jing Yehang lose face?

My new classmates didn't have much interest in sports. In particular, the girls who are dressed up beautifully will sit on the benches under the shade of the trees to rest on the grounds that they are not feeling well in physical education class.

"Liu Yuyang's grades have dropped this time, right?" A girl with a long ponytail starts the conversation.

"yes, it'......s usually in the top five," the short-haired girl sitting next to her replied nonchalantly.

"It is said that his father asked him to do it...... I don't know how he will be punished...... Ouch......" she shook her head sadly, her long ponytail flicking a few times.

"What? Feeling sorry for someone? Her companion seized the opportunity to tease her.

"Why!" The classmate with a long ponytail smiled coquettishly and continued: "I really don't understand, why does he have to hold on to Jing Yehang, it's a waste of time and energy!" ”

"Yes, Jing Yehang is honest, and he didn't offend him......"

"What? Feeling sorry for someone? This time, the girl with the long ponytail made fun of her companion.

"What nonsense, who will take a fancy to him!" The short-haired girl crossed her waist in a huff.

"That's right...... It hasn't changed since I was a child, my attendance rate in each semester is only up to standard, I only pass every exam, I skip a grade every time, and I'm really lucky......" The woman with a long ponytail complained angrily.

"Didn't a celebrity say that? Luck is also an ability. The short-haired girl shrugged her shoulders and sighed.

"Eh, why did you speak for him again? Could it be that you really fell in love with him? ”

"What are you kidding, even if he looks as handsome as Liu Yuyang, I'm not uncommon!"

"I can tell you responsibly, just with his sloppy appearance, not even one thousandth of Liu Yuyang's ......"

"Haha!"

Even though their small talk answered many of my questions, I didn't appreciate them at all, and even hated their meanness. Fortunately, Jing Yehang was not here, otherwise I don't know how uncomfortable it would be to hear these words. In terms of appearance, since I have never seen Liu Yuyang's appearance clearly, I can't understand the handsomeness in their mouths. The only thing that is certain is that he is tall, and it is unknown whether he is taller than Jing Yehang. It is reported that Liu Yuyang's family is wealthy, and the clothes he wears are naturally good, on the other hand, Jing Yehang, although he is not as well-dressed as him, his clothes are clean and clean, so he will not be disliked. In terms of personality, Liu Yuyang, who is used to being the focus of everyone and being touted, will show an arrogant and domineering posture from time to time, unlike the honest and polite Jing Yehang. Of course, everyone's values are different, maybe they think that the flaws are not hidden, as the school's man of the hour, Liu Yuyang is good enough. If I hadn't known Xingyuan and Xu Mingyao, maybe I would agree with them, however, the appearance of the two of them made me deeply realize that having extraordinary looks and intelligence does not prevent you from being a kind and good-natured person.

I thought about saying a few fair words for Jing Yehang, but I didn't say anything because I was afraid that they would ask about my grades. Teachers often encourage us with a phrase: just do your best, the result is not important. However, in this age when everything is only about results, the effort seems insignificant. Since moving to a new school, I have changed my mentality of getting by. With no one to rely on, I had to learn to be independent. Fortunately, Xingyuan still kept the notes given to me, I drew the scoop according to the gourd, took notes according to her way, and worked hard until the early hours of the morning every night, and finally managed to cope with the daily homework. However, coping with the monthly exam is another matter. Looking at the dazzling scores on the test paper, I wanted to cry without tears. It's not time to give up...... I fought hard and went to the head teacher with the test paper and notebook. I knew I wasn't worthy of being a member of the study committee, but thanks to this title and of course Jing Yehang's absence, I became acquainted with the head teacher. Otherwise, people like me, who are afraid of things and troublesome others, will never dare to take the initiative to ask the teacher questions.

"You've got to work harder!" The head teacher sighed earnestly after going through my test papers. "What university are you going to go to?"

"I haven't thought about it yet...... I clutched my notebook, but I felt embarrassed.

"The difference between the grades and the average score of these subjects is too far, if you don't understand something, you have to ask the teacher more......" After speaking, the head teacher beckoned to the math teacher, and the math teacher nodded understandingly. You can't be shy......"

"Got it......" Somehow, I felt the urge to cry.

"Have you discussed the cram school with your parents?"

"They said they wouldn't participate...... "I lowered my head for fear that the head teacher would see that I was lying." In fact, I didn't ask them at all, because I knew that my family couldn't afford it, and asking would only add to the embarrassment.

"Okay......" After speaking, the head teacher took out a red pen and began to explain the difficulties in the Chinese test paper to me one by one.

"You don't have to send homework to Jing Yehang anymore." Before school, the head teacher stopped me and whispered.

I stared blankly at him, not sure how to respond.

"You can't delay your studies for him...... Let's go home......"

It took me half a minute to understand the meaning of the head teacher's words. If you can't take care of yourself, how can you help others...... I hung my hands helplessly, and a tidal wave of powerlessness spread from my heart.
