Chapter 31: Rose-If

After receiving Jiang Limei's two cans of Wangzi milk, Ren Yu was a little restless, and finally got out of school in the evening, and the driver came to pick him up, but he didn't see Ren Xun.

The driver started the car: "Xiao Xun went back first." ”

"Oh."

Ren Yu held the schoolbag, and Wangzai's milk was safely placed at the bottom of the schoolbag. Hearing that Ren Xun was not there, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I saw that Xiao Xun was riding a bicycle just now, and said that he would ride to and from school in the future." The driver chatted with Ren Yu while driving: "Why did he suddenly start riding?" ”

Ren Yu put the schoolbag at his feet and straightened it.

"Recently, a few classmates have started a cycling club, and occasionally ride together to the suburbs." He explained.

"Ah, why didn't you participate in that little encounter?"

After the driver finished speaking, he was stuck, and hurriedly explained: "I don't mean that, it's my job to pick you up, I'm just thinking, children, it's always good to make more friends, don't just study, how good the age, you should play and play." ”

Ren Yu's face did not change, but he responded lightly: "Well, I understand Uncle Zhang." ”

The driver stopped talking, and there was silence in the car for the rest of the journey.

Ren Yu leaned back on the seat and looked out the window, the shoulder strap of the schoolbag at his feet touching his calf from time to time. He clenched his fists tightly, and after a few moments, he leaned over to pick up his bag again and put it on his lap.

He doesn't like to play because he doesn't find it interesting.

It's not fun to make friends, it's not fun to party, it's not fun to talk to people, and it's not fun to be gregarious. Even learning isn't really interesting, but what can you do besides studying?

The street scene outside the window flies by, mediocre.

Many years later, he saw a term in the book, called "low-desire people", which refers to those who have less expectations for life, have few interests, can be satisfied with basic survival materials, and do not have too many desires.

Ren Yu felt that he was that kind of person.

It's not really that there are no desires.

He longs for a beam of light that can melt the spring light of winter. When Jiang Limei was talking to him today, when he invited him to dinner, he clearly felt the change in his mood, like bursting fireworks, and every inch of his bones was shouting.

Who doesn't love bright light?

Even if the light wasn't just shining on him.

Ren Xun came back very late in the evening, looking a little embarrassed, it seemed that he had fallen while riding a bicycle, his palm was scratched, and he had some difficulty holding chopsticks during dinner.

Ren's mother picked up vegetables for him, and asked by the way: "How did you do it?" How can you fall while riding? ”

Ren Xun lowered his head and replied a little vaguely: "...... Accidentally, it was also the first time I took someone to sit in the back seat. ”

"Bringing someone? It's not safe to take people on a bicycle! ”

"Hmm......" Ren Xun still didn't look up: "There is a person in the club who can't ride, so I'll send her home." ”

"If you can't ride, why do you want to join the club?"

That's the end of the topic, Ren Xun seems to be extremely tired, he just doesn't eat, and people who usually talk a lot don't want to talk much today. Ren's mother sandwiched a piece of fish, picked a thorn, and put it in Ren Yu's bowl, but found that Ren Yu was not right today, and her expression seemed to have something on her mind.

"Xiao Yu?"

Ren Yu raised his head suddenly, as if he had just pulled out of some thoughts: "Mom, I'm full." ”

He put down his chopsticks and went upstairs, and when he entered the room, he gently closed the door and locked it.

The two cans of Wang Tsai's milk were still lying quietly in his school bag, and he carefully took them out, rubbed them carefully, looked at them for a moment, and then placed them side by side on the shelf of his bookcase.

He was immersed in fantasies about Jiang Limei that night, but he didn't know that that ordinary day was enough to change a lot of things.

If Ren Xun didn't ride to school, if he was invited to eat with Jiang Limei after school...... If many are accumulated together, they become tentacles that push the plot to bend and subvert.

It's a pity that there are no ifs.

In the spring of March, when the second semester of the second semester of high school officially started, Ren Yu had been in school for half a month of self-study.

Anseong No. 9 Middle School is a provincial key high school, and it is not surprising that every year the top student in the college entrance examination will appear in the key class of Anseong No. 9 Middle School. This year's senior year of high school is very competitive, and several final exams and the first place in the academic year are not the same person.

In contrast, the situation in the second year of high school is much more stable, and the quiz is a little more chaotic, but as long as the big exam is taken, the first place in the science class will always be any.

The director of the school year talked to Ren's father and mother on the phone several times, because he knew that the Ren family was doing business and had good economic conditions, and he was afraid that they would send Ren Yu abroad in advance to study in preparatory department and go straight to a famous foreign school. This is the path that many children of wealthy families take.

The director of the school year said euphemistically that as long as Ren Yu stays focused in the next year and the college entrance examination plays normally, there should be no controversy about the champion of the city, and it would be a pity to go abroad at this time.

From the school's point of view, it was a big loss to lose a champion.

Ren's mother's answer left some leeway, she said that the family has always been very democratic, the choice of children is more important, if Ren Yu wants to go abroad, they as parents can not interfere, can only try to provide the best support.

Everything depends on yourself.

The family atmosphere of the Ren family also gave Ren Xun a lot of freedom.

Entering the second semester of the second year of high school, Ren Xun's intention to enter the Academy of Fine Arts became more and more determined. The teacher he found during the winter vacation was of a very high level, but the teaching was average, so he refunded the tuition fee, found a new studio, and finally contacted a famous teacher through his father's relationship.

There are still nine months left before the art examination at the end of the year, and people who have always been stingy have the fighting spirit and no longer have to get by. cut off most of the social networking, and every weekend he carried a painting box on his back, rode a bicycle, and ran to the studio with a roar.

can't be much worse than his brother, which has become the goal of Ren Xun's efforts.

Ren's father and Ren's mother once talked in secret, which child do they prefer each other?

Although parents want a bowl of water, but there is always a time when they can't take care of it, Ren's mother cried while talking, she recalled the process of Ren Xun's growth, and her dedication to Ren Xun was far greater than Ren Yu.

Ren Yu is too worry-free, but worry-free children are destined to lack more care.

She feels indebted to Ren Yu, but she doesn't know how to make up for it, because Ren Yu's temperament is naturally cold, so people don't know how to get close, even if they are as close as parents, they are helpless.

Ren's father comforted Ren's mother, the child is just such a character, it does not mean that he is separated from the family, maybe when he grows up, he has his own family, and his personality will change, becoming more cheerful and sunny.

Ren's mother wiped away her tears and asked Ren's father: "What kind of daughter-in-law will you choose for our two sons to come back to us in the future?" ”

Ren's father smiled: "You can do anything, they just like it, and now young people won't live with their parents when they get married, and you don't have to worry about it." ”

Ren's mother thought the same way.

She felt that Ren Yu should find a cheerful and smiling girl with such a character, and it was better to make a fuss and take him out of a one's world.

Life is tumbling, in the end, we still have to be optimistic, see everything, and then see ourselves.

As for Ren Xun...... There are girls who are willing to be with him, so they burn high incense.

Ren Xun took classes in the new studio for a few weeks, and once he came home in the evening and listened to Ren's father talk about the Shenglin Group at the dinner table.

Ren's father said that Shenglin Group received a piece of forest land in Linshi to make a wild ecological park, which is a very good project, and he plans to invest some money to account for a little dividend, and it will be an investment.

Ren's father took a sip of tea and glanced at Ren Xun: "Your Uncle Sheng said that his daughter is in a studio with you, why didn't you come back to talk about it?" ”

Ren Xun scratched his hair: "Jiang Limei?" Yes, she took the talent test the year after tomorrow, and now she will start to prepare, and the teacher said that she is very talented, but her basic skills are not very solid. ”

The best way to learn art is to learn from an early age, Jiang Limei only began to get in touch with drawing boards and paints in the second year of junior high school, and the people in the same class with her at that time were all junior primary school students, all of whom were better than her. It is not easy for her to catch up to such a level.

"Are you familiar?" Ren's father asked.

"Count...... Cooked. Ren Xun said vaguely: "I only knew the incident when I asked the police to give evidence before." She also wants to go to the Academy of Fine Arts in Ling City, and when she meets her occasionally, she will say two sentences......"

Father Ren nodded, did not doubt, but just told him:

"Our family and Uncle Sheng will have business dealings in the future, you have to take care of Jiang Limei more at school, you are older than others, and you are more sensible."

A mouthful of black pepper beef choked in his throat, Ren Xun coughed violently, stumbling and replied, "Well, I know." ”

Ren Yu didn't say a word, and ate silently, as if the topics on the dinner table had nothing to do with him, but when he went back to the room to do the question, he frequently made mistakes.

An English essay, he wrote for an hour, and finally frowned and crumpled the paper, threw it into the trash can rudely, then got up and went out, walked to Ren Xun's bedroom, and when he reached the door, the hand that knocked on the door was raised, and then stopped.

He heard Ren Xun on the phone.

The tone is relaxed and bright, mixed with cheerful laughter from time to time, Ren Yu can probably guess that Ren Xun should be blowing the wind through the window at the moment, and the person on the other side of the phone is very familiar with him, and he can talk to one place.

"Jiang Xiaoyu, your dad told my dad that we are in the same studio, and my dad asked me to take care of you more."

"Do you need me to take care of you? Thank you for not bullying me. ”

"Learning to ride? Still learning? I've been teaching you for a long time, and you still haven't made any progress. ”

"Forget it, you'll better sit in the back seat in the future."

......

The noise of the TV came from the living room on the first floor, and the voice of the evening news anchor was deep. Ren's father was on the phone on the terrace on the second floor, and there was a faint smell of smoke in the wind.

The night breeze is lonely, but the heart is not quiet.

Ren Yu was silent for a long time, he stood at the door of Ren Xun's bedroom, and the hand that knocked on the door couldn't fall.

Finally, he let out a long exhale, wiped the corners of his eyes, and turned back to his room.
