Fork in the road

The parent-teacher meeting was not too long, and when Bai Xinhong arrived home, Bai Xiaoyuan was cooking in the kitchen.

She stood at the kitchen door without saying a word and looked at her son's back, before turning around and entering the bedroom after a while.

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't look back, but he also heard the sound of footsteps approaching the kitchen. After calling "Mom", he continued to cook the pot and shovel in his hand, but he didn't hear Bai Xinhong's answer for a long time. When I was wondering, I heard footsteps slowly going away.

...Are you here for an inspection?

Bai Xiaoyuan wasn't sure what Bai Xinhong was thinking, but it probably had nothing to do with the parent meeting, after all he wasn't a student who gave the teacher a headache.

Bai Xinhong's performance was indeed related to the parent meeting, but it was not because of the teacher, but because of Hu Yue, Yu Xian's mother.

In Hu Yue's mouth, Bai Xiaoyuan is simply a good boy who is better than him in the world. He studies better than him and lives independently without him, lives more independent than him without his temper, and has a better temper than him than him. Good-looking... ...In short, he praised Bai Xiaoyuan as much as he could.

In Hu Yue's eyes, before Bai Xiaoyuan was good in all aspects, only a little lacking in study, but no one is perfect, but now Bai Xiaoyuan's grades have improved, and even the only minor flaw is gone. Yes, it is a perfect person-of course, there is a lot of exaggeration.

When Hu Yue and Bai Xinhong were still working in the same unit, Hu Yue admired Bai Xinhong, who was a few years older than him and full of personality, so Hu Yue also took it for granted that Bai Xinhong's transformation was due to Bai Xinhong's good teaching , never thought that Bai Xiaoyuan would initiate the change on his own initiative.With such thoughts, Hu Yue finally met Bai Xinhong, so naturally he wanted to ask Bai Xinhong for advice.

Bai Xinhong could only answer as sincerely as possible that she is usually abroad, and there are not many opportunities to take care of Bai Xiaoyuan, so these are probably Bai Xiaoyuan's own enlightenment.

In the end, she politely praised Kua Yuxian without forgetting it.

Speaking of being polite, Bai Xinhong actually thinks that Yu Xian is indeed a good boy.Needless to mention the quiet and steady impression from childhood, when I went upstairs and saw Bai Xiaoyuan and Yu Xian standing in the corridor, Bai Xinhong only felt how comfortable his son was standing, relying on The railings in the corridor are quite soft—as expected of dancing since primary school—his school uniform jacket is only half-zip, the sleeves are messed up, and the trousers are still a little wrinkled, giving him a slovenly appearance.

If it weren't for Bai Xiaoyuan's good looks and could stand up to his own troubles, Bai Xinhong would definitely not be able to resist going up to tidy up Bai Xiaoyuan in front of everyone.

Although Bai Xiaoyuan is passable here, but compared with Yu Xian next to him, he looks ruffian.

Yu Xian's school uniforms are whiter than Bai Xiaoyuan's, and there are not many folds. They should be hung up after taking them off every day. The zippers are pulled up to the chest, the sleeves are not rolled up, and there are straight traces of ironing in the middle of the trousers. .Although Yu Xian didn't necessarily do the school uniform tidying up, but at least from the visual effect, Yu Xian was obviously tidier and more like a good student in the traditional sense.

But Bai Xinhong can't directly say that Yu Xian looks like a better student than Bai Xiaoyuan. He can only say that Yu Xian looks like material for studying. catch up.

Although the two of them didn't have a long chat before the parent meeting, Bai Xinhong still heard a lot of Hu Yue's comments on Bai Xiaoyuan.

This is why Bai Xinhong stared at his own son for a long time after returning home.

It was hard for her to imagine that the person Hu Yue was talking about was Bai Xiaoyuan whom she had raised for so many years.It's not that Bai Xinhong doesn't like her own son. Although she and Bai Xiaoyuan don't spend much time together day and night, as a mother, she still knows Bai Xiaoyuan's advantages and disadvantages. A good boy at heart--just don't say it often.

But Hu Yue's praise was a bit exaggerated, so Bai Xinhong couldn't help but think, is it because he doesn't know his son well enough, or is it because Bai Xiaoyuan just has a halo in the eyes of others?

After some observation, Bai Xinhong felt that Bai Xiaoyuan was still Bai Xiaoyuan, and her son was still her son. Hu Yue probably had a mysterious interest in other people's children.

She didn't care when she came to a conclusion, but Bai Xiaoyuan was quite at a loss.

Originally, Bai Xiaoyuan didn't take this parent meeting seriously, but after Bai Xinhong came back, he stared at him with hairs on his back... Could it be that the teacher said something?

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't rush to take out the dishes after serving them up, but sent a message to Yu Xian in the kitchen, "My mother is not in the right condition after she came back... Is there anything unusual on your side?"

"Not at all. My mother, as usual, praised a child prodigy named Bai Xiaoyuan who I might not know."

Bai Xiaoyuan almost laughed out loud, he could imagine Yu Xiansheng's loveless expression, he paused on the keyboard, and typed: "This name sounds familiar."

After posting it, he realized that he was off topic, and immediately added another sentence, "Then what's going on with my mother..."

"Ask directly? The parent meeting is really nothing special. I just asked."

"...Then let me try. Talk back~"

Bai Xiaoyuan, who received Bai Xinhong's answer at the dinner table, was quite speechless, and said that it was difficult to continue this conversation.

Bai Xinhong said that if you can't go on, don't go on, go back to the room and play computer after dinner.

After returning to the house, Bai Xiaoyuan didn't go to play with the computer, but complained to Yu Xian first.

Yu Xian replied in a rather cold voice: "Auntie only listened to it for a few minutes and doubted life. I have listened to it for several years, no, maybe it has been more than ten years."

Bai Xiaoyuan joked with a smile: "Then have you been impressed by my excellence?"

Yu Xian's answer was straightforward: "Go away, thank you."

Although Bai Xinhong asked Bai Xiaoyuan to go into the room to play with the computer, Bai Xiaoyuan obediently took out his homework in the room.Tomorrow morning he still has to go to the dance classroom. Every time he has a holiday, he spends half a day less than others, so of course he has to hurry up.

Before going to bed at night, he hesitated for a while looking at his phone, but still couldn't help harassing Yu Xian.

So Yu Xian, who was just lying on the bed and was about to read a novel on his mobile phone for a while, received a long message.The lights in the room had already been turned off, Yu Xian lay on his side on the bed with a calm expression, and clicked on the voice message.

"Good evening, Xianyu, are you sitting or lying down now? Are you fulfilling this afternoon? Are you satisfied? Are you happy? How much homework have you written? How many wrong questions have you sorted out? Yuan is equally obsessed with studying and can't extricate himself?"

Bai Xiaoyuan's clean and joyful voice echoed in the dark room, Yu Xian put his finger on the button to unblock friends, and pressed it decisively.

Bai Xiaoyuan was still waiting for Yu Xian's reply, but after swiping Weibo for a few minutes and returning to the chat interface, he found that he was no longer Yu Xian's friend.Bai Xiaoyuan smiled while sending the verification message, Xianyu is still so casual, alas, it's fun.

After sending several friend requests in a row, the other party still didn't respond at all. Bai Xiaoyuan thought that Xianyu had already blocked him... He tapped the keyboard and switched to the SMS interface.

If you can't receive QQ messages, you can always receive text messages on your mobile phone, right?

As soon as Yu Xianxin read the beginning of the e-book, his phone vibrated again.

The message prompt bar above shows the content of the text message: salted fish?

Before Yu Xian could decide whether to return or not, his hand shook several times.The notification bar popped up one after another.

Salted fish?

Salted fish?

Salted fish?

Yu Xian poked at the screen of the phone word by word, and replied: ... What kind of nerves are you.

Bai Xiaoyuan smiled happily when he received the text message, and quickly went back: Xianyu, don't block me, you see that you need money to send me text messages, how good is it to send QQ, isn't it?

Yu Xian still replied with a text message: Then you sent so many messages in succession just now?

Bai Xiaoyuan just sent another friend request while waiting for a reply, and seeing that Yu Xian still sent text messages, he also replied: I have a package, so don't compare with me...

Yu Xian sighed silently, and finally added Bai Xiaoyuan's friends back.

Bai Xiaoyuan started to send voice messages again: "I won't talk nonsense this time, but I just want to ask if you plan to stay up late to read novels again?"

Yu Xian didn't answer, because Bai Xiaoyuan had indeed hit the mark.

Bai Xiaoyuan said with a smile in his voice, "Salted fish, you already have dark circles on your face, you should get more sleep, or be careful of kidney deficiency~"

Yu Xian felt that Bai Xiaoyuan should be blocked as expected.

Bai Xiaoyuan was still earnestly educating about the dangers of going to bed late, Yu Xian finally couldn't help but send a message "I'm asleep, good night", turned off the phone, and turned over to sleep.

However, after closing his eyes, Bai Xiaoyuan's voice seemed to be still piercing through his head, Yu Xian gritted his teeth and tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep in a daze.

Bai Xiaoyuan felt that Yu Xian would not lie to him to perfuse himself, so Yu Xian should really sleep.Bai Xiaoyuan felt that he had achieved the achievement of "urging salted fish to go to bed early" before going to bed, so he swiped Weibo with satisfaction before going to bed.

The next day was Sunday, Bai Xiaoyuan deliberately went out early in the afternoon, now that it was cold, Bai Xiaoyuan would always feel a little embarrassed to see Yu Xian waiting for him downstairs in his house, sighing whitely.

Just as Bai Xiaoyuan stopped the car, he saw Yu Xian walking out from the door of the building.

He said hi in his heart, my time card is really accurate, raised his hand and greeted Yu Xian with a smile.Yu Xian pushed the cart over, Bai Xiaoyuan looked at his face carefully, and pretended to be surprised: "Your dark circles are much smaller today, did you really not stay up late yesterday?"

Although Yu Xian felt a little resentful towards Bai Xiaoyuan in his heart last night, the feeling of refreshment this morning made him choose to forget those unpleasant things.After all, every time Yu Xian used to stay up late, not only did he not get up early the next day, but he also couldn't wake up quickly after waking up.

But even though he felt good in his heart, Yu Xian still used his inertia to say: "According to your majestic and shocking spirit, I will have a kidney cut if I stay up for another day." He got on the bike while talking, and the two headed towards the school up.

Bai Xiaoyuan nodded, very satisfied, "From then on, I will supervise you every time you have a monthly vacation."

Yu Xian showed a cold smile, "From then on, I will block you every time I have a monthly vacation."

Along the way, Bai Xiaoyuan was trying her best to be cute and fool around. After arriving at school, she made a decision on her own: "Then let's make an appointment. No one stays up late. Whoever stays up late is a dog."

Yu Xian expressed his gratitude and indifference to Bai Xiaoyuan's behavior that was obviously talking to himself but insisted on secretly making the agreement between the two of them.

Bai Xiaoyuan sat down on his seat, took out a piece of fruit candy from his schoolbag, and tried to bribe Yu Xian.

Yu Xian took it over without hesitation, but still didn't let go: "Even if you have dark circles just by staying up late, you can't see it if you are so dark."

In fact, Bai Xiaoyuan is really not black, but Yu Xian is too white, even whiter than many girls. Bai Xiaoyuan has to compare, and can only be portrayed as an African.

Bai Xiaoyuan gritted his teeth and rolled up his sleeves, "Although I'm indeed a little darker than you, I'm not that dark."

Yu Xian pulled his sleeves off, raised Bai Xiaoyuan's chin in a frivolous manner and indifferently, "Let's not look at the arms, but at the face."

Bai Xiaoyuan pretended to be sad, tilted his head and lowered his eyes, "You think I'm black..."

Yu Xian's smile was strangely warm: "It's not that I think you're black, but that you are black."

Bai Xiaoyuan patted Yu Xian's hand away with a palm, with a serious face but a smile in his eyes, "Salted fish, I think our friendship has come to an end."

Yu Xian thought about how to respond to Bai Xiaoyuan's words, and after a moment he hesitated and said, "Then I'll give you the candy back?" As he spoke, he stuck out the tip of his tongue with transparent fruit candy on it.

Bai Xiaoyuan felt that even if he was joking, he would not be able to "ask" the candy back. Seeing that Bai Xiaoyuan didn't respond, Yu Xian hooked the tip of his tongue and sucked the candy in again.

Bai Xiaoyuan was about to speak helplessly when a voice suddenly came.After sitting down, Lu Shaoguang poked his head over and asked Yu Xian, "Yu Xian, do you know Xie Zichen's phone number or QQ?"

Yu Xian was taken aback, and replied: "I have it on my phone, if you want it, I can send it to you at night."

Although Lu Shaoguang was talking to Yu Xian, Bai Xiaoyuan answered, "Xie Zichen...is that junior high school classmate you mentioned earlier?"

"Well, but it's not in the same class as mine, and in the same class as Yu Xian."

Bai Xiaoyuan said: "Let's talk to him face to face, it will feel more sincere?"

Lu Shaoguang nodded, "Then let's go together after the first class, same-sex attracts, I'm afraid I say it won't work."
