Fork in the road

The final exam of the first semester of high school is over, and it is ushered in the division of arts and sciences and the replacement of teaching buildings, and after the dust settles, it will be another period of make-up classes without weekends.Because this is the last exam that does not distinguish between arts and sciences, even though most of the midterm and final exams are city-wide exams, Bai Xiaoyuan can't be nervous about ranking at all—after all, he won't be playing with history and land administration next time, and he is full of enthusiasm for the next exam. While looking forward to it, I can't pay attention to this time.

Although the teaching building has been changed, the three teaching buildings have the same structure, so the location is still the same, and changing the classroom has no effect.There were three students in their class who went to study literature, including Lu Shaoguang, and there were also three new students who transferred in.

After Lu Shaoguang went to the literature class, the new classmate who took her place was a boy.Just as Bai Xiaoyuan wanted to sigh in his heart, he realized that the boy was still an acquaintance——Ling Ganuo's boyfriend, Chen Minghao.Lingano has a good eye, and her boyfriend is not bad looking. Bai Xiaoyuan forgot the sigh and greeted the classmate with a smile.

During the rehearsal period before the show, Bai Xiaoyuan and Yu Xian would inevitably mention their classmates together, because Yu Xian didn't know Lin Ganuo and her boyfriend, so Bai Xiaoyuan directly called them both "sisters" in front of Yu Xian and "her boyfriend".This time, when I greeted Chen Minghao, I almost balked and said "Hello, her boyfriend", but I stopped in time.

After saying hello, Bai Xiaoyuan didn't say anything more, because the old classmate Guo Zeyuan next to the new classmate was waiting for Bai Xiaoyuan to give him a lecture.

When I got home at night, Bai Xiaoyuan received a call from Lu Shaoguang, asking him how his new classmate was doing. Bai Xiaoyuan was sitting on the bed sorting out the wrong questions. He put on his earphones and didn't answer her directly. He twirled the scissors in his hand. Asked back: "Why don't you ask Guo Zeyuan, he is the closest to the new classmate."

Lu Shaoguang knew the name of the classmate who transferred into the class, and also knew that Chen Minghao had taken his original seat, so she only wanted to ask Bai Xiaoyuan what he thought of this person.As for why... She can't say that because Guo Zeyuan gave her acquainted female classmate a glance last semester, so she knows that the other party is a straight man, and she must not pay enough attention to Chen Minghao, who is also a man, and Bai Xiaoyuan, who has an ambiguous sexual orientation. Not necessarily!And maybe you can figure out Bai Xiaoyuan's sexual orientation just by asking!

So Lu Shaoguang replied in a high-sounding manner: "Because I think you love making friends more than studying this matter seriously, and you pay attention to the classmates around you. Generally speaking, I think you are a good young man who loves life and mankind, And Guo Zeyuan is an idiot obsessed with books."

"It's fine to praise me, don't hurt others." Although Bai Xiaoyuan felt that there was nothing wrong with Lu Shaoguang's description of Guo Zeyuan...

"So did Chen Minghao change anything after he sat there?"

"He's not a seismograph, so where's the change? Besides, he's your girlfriend's boyfriend, shouldn't you know him better than I do?"

"No, she is my girlfriend's ex-boyfriend, and even without this 'ex', I have no reason to be familiar with him."

"He and Lingano broke up?" Bai Xiaoyuan paused while cutting the paper, and asked indifferently, "When did it happen?"

"This semester just started... I don't know too much."

"So you asked me about Chen Minghao... Is it Lingano who wants to get back together? Or did you suddenly know the type you like?"

"No, just curious~"

Bai Xiaoyuan rubbed his eyes, and replied helplessly, "He's quite normal, but I don't have much to talk to him about."

"Really...You can chat with your Yu Xian for a long time, but have nothing to talk to him? Impossible."

Bai Xiaoyuan didn't bother to care about "your family" in Lu Shaoguang's mouth, and replied: "Salted fish... no, Yu Xian is actually very talkative, I always feel that chatting with him is the easiest. As for Chen Minghao... probably the aura is not in harmony. Well, I don’t really need new friends anyway.”

The words "I don't need new friends" really don't look like Bai Xiaoyuan's style, if Yu Xian said it, it would be more or less the same.Lu Shaoguang guessed that Bai Xiaoyuan might not like Chen Minghao very much.

Indeed, rather than saying that it was a discord in the aura, it was better to say that Bai Xiaoyuan had always had a dislike for Chen Minghao for no reason—even though he was good-looking.He didn't think there was any need to explore why he thought so, he just followed his inner thoughts directly and showed an alienated attitude towards the other party.

Although Bai Xiaoyuan didn't tell Yu Xian about this matter, Yu Xian could tell that Bai Xiaoyuan's attitude towards Chen Minghao seemed a little cold.Yu Xian didn't ask any questions, but even though he was Chen Minghao's front desk, he didn't say a few words to him.

Chen Minghao seems to only see Yu Xian's estrangement, and occasionally chats with Bai Xiaoyuan.

After making up lessons for more than a week, I finally have a holiday.Because there were a lot of books and review materials at home during the holidays, Bai Xiaoyuan and Yu Xian took a lot back in advance, and finally managed to avoid serious overload on the last day and ride home safely.

The holiday time is after two classes in the afternoon on the last day. Yu Xian wanted to ask Bai Xiaoyuan if he had any plans for the future, and if he wanted to buy the tutorial books for the next semester together, but Bai Xiaoyuan asked Bai Xiaoyuan before Yu Xian could open his mouth. He explained his future plans: to practice with Xie Zichen.

Bai Xiaoyuan complained helplessly while riding the bicycle: "Why don't you be in such a hurry, it's just the first day of vacation, anyway, there is more than a month of summer vacation, can you have some confidence in me?"

Yes, the reason why Xie Zichen wanted to practice so early was because he was worried that Bai Xiaoyuan would not be bothered to practice alone.

Bai Xiaoyuan sent all the books he brought back upstairs, then hurriedly rode out on his bike again, headed for the address given by Xie Zichen, the dance classroom of a nearby university.Xie Zichen's uncle is a dance teacher, and the university has already had summer vacation, so it is very convenient to borrow the classroom.

Standing in front of the window, Yu Xian watched Bai Xiaoyuan pass downstairs by his house on a bicycle, and couldn't tell what he was feeling.Probably my only good friend is not my only good friend, so I feel a little lost.

During the first few days of the holiday, Bai Xiaoyuan felt as if he was still going to school.Get up every morning to practice with Xie Zichen, go to Yu Xian's house every afternoon to do homework, and lie on the bed at night like a dead fish, not wanting to do anything.

On the first day of practice, it was only him and Xie Zichen. From the second day on, Xie Zichen's little uncle appeared from time to time, and used the tone of the teacher they were very familiar with to find fault with them.Although Bai Xiaoyuan is very grateful, but the feeling of being supervised by the teacher after the holiday is really indescribable... This kind of supervision is different from Lu Yanwu's. After all, most teachers in interest classes still don't know how to As strict as the teachers in the school.

Fortunately, there is plenty of practice time after the holiday. Although there is still a high-standard teacher present this time, Xie Zichen and Bai Xiaoyuan managed to record the finished product within a week. When the two separated at the university gate on the last day, Bai Xiaoyuan She took Xie Zichen's hand and shook it for a while, said goodbye to him very excitedly, and made a decision in her heart: if Xie Zichen came to ask her again, she would definitely refuse.

It's really strange, why do the friends he met after he went to high school have so many relatives who teach dance?

After not having to practice with Xie Zichen, Bai Xiaoyuan's holiday life became much more relaxed.

You don’t need to set an alarm clock in the morning, you can wake up naturally; you don’t need to stop by at noon to eat, but you can find what you want to eat; the study time increases, the thickness of unfinished homework becomes less and less, and the burden on the heart is also lightened. few.

In the afternoon, Bai Xiaoyuan sat at Yu Xian's house to do homework again.The air conditioner was turned on in the living room, and the two of them were writing their homework on both sides of the coffee table.Bai Xiaoyuan wrote in English, resting his chin on his left hand, and moved his right hand to write down an option after a while; Yu Xian was doing mathematics here, and he hadn’t stopped writing for half a day, and he used up the draft paper More than half.

After Bai Xiaoyuan finished reading a piece, he raised his head and saw Yu Xian was comparing the process on the draft paper, transcribing it step by step into his homework. He looked at it for a while, but couldn't help but said: "It's just a homework for winter vacation, what's the paper roll?" None of it matters."

Yu Xian replied without raising his head: "You don't have to pay attention to your handwriting. If I just write the draft on it, I won't be able to understand what I wrote when I start school."

Bai Xiaoyuan suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, that copybook I gave you—"

"The pen is in use, but the copybook is thrown away."

Bai Xiaoyuan shook his head, "I don't believe you. I don't have time during school, so I can use it to write during the holidays."

Yu Xian had nothing to say, and continued to transcribe the answer.After Bai Xiaoyuan finished a set of English, after correcting the answers, he took the wrong question book aside and planned to sort it out, but after opening it, he saw Yu Xian's writing.

Bai Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment, closed the book and looked at the cover again, only then realized that Yu Xian's book was given by him, and this book happened to be the book he used to sort out wrong English questions in junior high school.He didn't pay attention when he took it, and he picked it up by mistake.

Bai Xiaoyuan stared at the book in his hand in a daze. Yu Xian felt that the other party hadn't moved for a long time, so he raised his head and took a look, and found that the other party was holding his wrong book, looking serious on the surface but his eyes were distracted, so he couldn't help but call him One sound.

"Bai Xiaoyuan."

"Huh...huh?" Bai Xiaoyuan closed the notebook in his hand, and said with a smile, "Xianyu, do you mind if I draw something casually on the skin of your notebook?" After I draw it, I won't get confused Well, besides... I just finished my homework for half a day, and Bai Xiaoyuan also wanted to do something else to relax.

"I don't mind, it's your notebook."

Bai Xiaoyuan got permission, and immediately pulled out the monochrome cover from the plastic case, took out a pen and began to ponder.

Yu Xian finished the next few big questions. When he raised his head to find the answer, he found that Bai Xiaoyuan was still drawing with his head down.He was not in a hurry to go over to see what the other party was drawing, and he was still doing his own thing. After getting the answers right, he saw that Bai Xiaoyuan hadn't finished drawing, so he continued to sort out the wrong questions.

If there are not many questions and answers, you can copy them in the notebook first, and if you have a lot of content, you can mark them first, and cut them out and paste them in the notebook after the lecture at the beginning of school.Just as Yu Xian copied a few words, Bai Xiaoyuan suddenly said "Hey", and handed the piece of paper he had drawn for a long time to Yu Xian.

Yu Xian almost raised his hand and poked a hole in the paper with the cap on the back of his writing pen.

He took the paper, said "thank you" without looking at it carefully, and then looked at it seriously.After watching for ten seconds, Yu Xian gave up the idea of ​​counting how many fish were drawn on the cover.

Bai Xiaoyuan densely drew no less than a hundred salted fish on this piece of paper, each of them looked like they were going to die, and he kept remembering to keep pressing one. Fortunately, Yu Xian didn't have trypophobia, Otherwise, he might just paste this piece of paper on Bai Xiaoyuan's face.

Bai Xiaoyuan lay on the table and asked with a mysterious smile: "Salted fish, do you want to know how many salted fishes I drew? Do you want to count them?"

"I don't want to." After Yu Xian finished answering, he felt that this answer was too tactful. It should be said that he really didn't want to, didn't want to know at all, absolutely didn't want to know.Not to mention that curiosity killed the cat, Yu Xian felt that if he squandered his curiosity at this time, he might become mentally retarded.

"That's great, because I didn't count at all." Bai Xiaoyuan shook his head, quite happy.

Yu Xian inserted the piece of paper back into the plastic case, put the wrong book aside, looked at Bai Xiaoyuan and said, "Should I do my homework?"

Bai Xiaoyuan sighed, straightened up slowly with a face of reluctance, and turned over the homework that had been laid down before.

It feels good for two people to study together, reminding each other and torturing each other.Bai Xiaoyuan reminded Yu Xian that when he was studying hard, he was quite confident, but when he was urged, he immediately became depressed.

Bai Xiaoyuan thought, if he was studying alone in an empty room, who would be able to show his torture-like expression, and how much less fun he would have.
