- I thought the journey was indefinite, but I didn't expect you to come to me on a long journey.

――2018.5.xx

Do you still remember Lin Mingzhu from No. 3 Middle School and Su Qingzhou, a sports student from No. 7 Middle School?

In the winter of eleven years ago, Su Qingzhou wore a white down jacket and a brown scarf to confess to me in front of the whole class in physical education class on Christmas Eve.

I don't remember his face very well, but I remember that there was a white gauze on his face, and his smile was full of necessity and flamboyance.

He said, "Hi, Jiang Jingmu from the first class. I'm seventeen years old today, can you give me a gift? ”

"What... What a gift. ”

"I like you, can you be my girlfriend?"

The first time someone confessed to me, I blushed shyly, and all the classmates in the class were applauding and shouting.

"Hey, Jiang Jingmu, hurry up and agree!"

"Yes, agree!"

"Su Qingzhou would actually confess to her?"

"It's supposed to be fun."

"Shhhh

"Ah-the Political and Religious Office-"

The teacher from the Political and Educational Office led the two of us to the office, severely criticized us, and wrote a review.

――――

――

I remember that Su Qingzhou, a boy from Beijing, was fair-skinned. He speaks standard Mandarin, and when I met him, he was only half a head taller than me.

At the class reunion, the seat next to me was vacant.

Ask the squad leader why is there no one next to me?

He took out his phone, glanced at the messages, flipped through the list of invitations, and said:

"Oh, Jingmu, the place next to you is Su Qingzhou's, and he will be here in a while."

Chen Siwei drank a drink next to Su Qingzhou, and his ears were very pointed: "Su Qingzhou? Didn't he go abroad early? It's been so many years, but it's back? ”

"yes, I called him as soon as I heard he was back."

Chen Siwei: "Jingmu, I remember when I was in high school, he liked you. ”

I pushed the broken hair behind my ear a little unnaturally, and hummed softly, which was a response.

In just twenty minutes, the students who should have arrived had already arrived. Only Su Qingzhou was left, and there was no one sitting beside me.

Very nervous.

The door of the private room was opened, and when Xun Sheng looked over, it was not the expected Su Qingzhou. It is a woman with slightly curly short hair, and her capable appearance is very similar to the deputy squad leader - Lin Mingzhu.

"Wow! It's a pearl! ”

"It's a pearl, right?"

Everyone got up to greet her, and their eyes inadvertently met her, and their hearts trembled violently, and they looked at her with a very unnatural smile.

"Jingmu, long time no see." Lin Mingzhu said with a smile.

"Well, long time no see."

I was 11 years old. Su Qingzhou and Lin Mingzhu are both seventeen years old.

When I was in school, I wasn't a very good person. But after meeting Su Qingzhou, it was not like that. He relied on his family background and appearance, and was a very flamboyant boy at school.

We were supposed to be two people who had nothing to do with each other, but we ran into each other by accident.

And Lin Mingzhu, the vice president of the student union, is also a girl who is the vice president of the first class. He is a good-looking, excellent learner and talkative person.

When Su Qingzhou transferred to the first shift, my tablemate was ordered to go home for reflection because he made a mistake. And he couldn't get out of the seat, so he could only sit next to me.

Since then, they have become table mates.

He likes to joke and borrow lipstick from a female classmate to put on my makeup during my lunch break. At first, I was very angry, but then I became helpless. Every day when you wake up at noon, you have to wash your face with facial cleanser, whether you have a painted face or not.

His flamboyance ends when he rejects a big sister from school, as if every student has an appointment after school.

The boy called the big monster left a sentence for Su Qingzhou, "Don't leave after school!" Then he left.

He is actually a very naïve boy who does not understand the world. After school, I stepped out of the classroom door in the setting sun. And because I was worried that something would happen to him, I followed him all the way to the alley at the school gate.

I'm glad I followed.

In that alley, the big monster led a group of boys and surrounded Su Qingzhou, who came alone.

"Calling you arrogant! Dare to refuse Xiao Cheng! ”

"Don't look at what you are!"

"Call me! You! ”

He couldn't beat too many people by himself, and he was beaten to the ground by the thugs. I hid at the mouth of the alley, covering my mouth and shaking. The first time I saw someone fighting, Su Qingzhou, who was surrounded by people, had already spit blood from his mouth.

In a panic, I saw the security guard leaving the school gate, and I yelled to lure the security guard over.

The security guard held an electric baton and whistled vigorously.

"Stop! Stop it! As soon as I saw them stop, I shouted and ran forward to help Su Qingzhou, who fell to the ground.

"Su Qingzhou, it's okay! Are you okay! ”

"No... Affair. ”

"How many shifts!" When they saw that it was the security guard, they thought about running away. I put down Su Qingzhou, picked up the sticks they had dropped on the ground, and rushed behind them.

Stretching out his arms to block their retreat: "You can't go anywhere!" ”

Su Qingzhou, who was lying on the ground, called me: "Jiang Jingmu! ”

I frowned and looked at Su Qingzhou, who was struggling to get up, I was scared. I'm also afraid that the school thugs will retaliate against me, and I'm afraid that they don't care about beating women.

Although I saw Su Qingzhou's worried gaze, I still held on to my body. The two hands holding the sticks stretched out straight to block their retreat.

"I want to run! Your grandma, get over here, bunnies! Come and stand in line one by one, okay, bunnies!! The security guard stared at each of them, and a group of them were kicked and stood straight around the wall.

The security guard called the political and religious office, and it took less than three minutes. Three teachers from the Political and Educational Office, as well as our homeroom teacher, came.

As soon as they came, I thought I had seen a savior. As soon as his leg went limp, he fell, and he took several deep breaths before he suppressed his body, which was trembling with fear.

I accompanied the head teacher to take Su Qingzhou to the hospital.

He broke a rib, sprained his ankle, lost a wisdom tooth in the socket of his back teeth, and suffered a slight concussion.

After the head teacher called his parents, he went back to the school to deal with the brawl group.

He and I were the only ones left in the room, and I looked at him as he fell asleep. He had a white gauze patch on the corner of his left eye and a cast on his ankle.

That was the bravest thing I've ever done, and I helped someone. Even though every time I think about it, I feel scared of who I was back then.

However, I still don't regret it.

In the days when Su Qingzhou was hospitalized, every time I came home from school, I was scared, afraid that the gangsters from the school at that intersection would come out.

I'm not enthusiastic enough, so I have to carry on my own when I encounter things that I am afraid of.

Until now, the person I admire the most is still myself, because only I will help myself, take care of myself, and overcome mountain after mountain, and overcome difficulties again and again.

It seems that in all the high school years, there are just pages and pages of blanks. There is no Nianjun, no one else, only one Su Qingzhou In this blank era, he unconsciously drew a few brave pictures.

He is probably the one who made a difference in my stable years.

Then, it was still himself, and there was loneliness in the sky.

I'm an art student, and I'm a little talented, but the things I draw in exams are still very stiff, and Su Qingzhou has been at the same table with me since then.

When I said my drawing was bad, he told me, "You draw very well." You just don't want to be confined to taking exams with what you like, you see, the clothes you design look better.
