Fork in the road

Although the living conditions in Province K are quite comfortable, the date of the start of school is getting closer, and the two families have to leave.After boarding the plane, Yu Xian was still reluctant to part with his family—the great-grandfather was getting old, and he didn't know how long he could be with him. Bai Xiaoyuan had no family ties at all. nostalgia for life.It was difficult for him to open his heart to accept relatives who had just appeared out of the blue when he was a teenager.

Bai Xiaoyuan asked Bai Xinhong: "Will we come here again?"

"If there's nothing important, I probably won't come here." Bai Xinhong said calmly.

For a few days, Bai Xinhong didn't bring Bai Xiaoyuan with him when he went home, so Bai Xiaoyuan didn't know what they talked about afterwards.

Bai Xiaoyuan said "Oh", "Then come back when you want to play."

In the second half of the second semester of senior high school, the already strong learning atmosphere in the class became more and more intense. Everyone was in a state of listening to lectures and reviewing after class, and continued to work hard after school. Some students were so nervous that they wanted to go out to the toilet. book.

While admiring Bai Xiaoyuan, he also thought it was amazing. This is not yet the third year of high school. If he is in the third year of high school, he will have to wrap his books in a plastic bag while taking a shower.However, Bai Xiaoyuan can understand how hard he works. After all, he is also trying his best to study—it's just that his effort may be a little worse than others.

After the school term started, Bai Xiaoyuan finally made up his mind to participate in several competitions this semester. When he was in the third year of high school, no matter whether he had any results or not, he would not take competition classes anymore.After hearing his decision, Yu Xian's reaction was very calm, and he just said: "If you win the prize, come to my house for a big meal."

After learning that the time of this competition would delay a basketball final, Bai Xiaoyuan kept moaning and sighing when facing Yu Xian.Of course he didn't dare to sigh directly in the class, because many students felt that the competition was a good opportunity, if he got a place and then showed sullenness, then in the eyes of others, he really got cheap and behaved.

But this is the last grade basketball game in the three years of high school.Because in the third year of high school, except for the sports meeting, I almost didn't participate in any activities.So Bai Xiaoyuan was still quite sad.

Yu Xian would definitely not be jealous of him being able to participate in the competition. Seeing Bai Xiaoyuan's miserable appearance, he could only comfort him: "I'll tell you the result right away, okay?"

Bai Xiaoyuan lay on the table and sighed again.

Yu Xian also exhaled, and said helplessly: "You can't let me help you on stage, can you? There is no shortage of people in our class, and besides, I can't make it either."

Bai Xiaoyuan still wanted to sigh, but stopped again, and finally said: "Then you can send me a message when the time comes, thank you."

Yu Xian was a little puzzled, and asked, "It's just a basketball game, you haven't missed it before, why are you so sad?"

Bai Xiaoyuan thought for a while, "Well, Xianyu, you don't play basketball, how can I explain it to you... The important thing is not this game, but this may be the last time I won with my teammates so seriously. This After the game, everyone should study hard."

Yu Xian wondered why Bai Xiaoyuan's favorite activities were isolated from her, whether it was dancing or playing basketball.However, there is one thing they hate in common, that is, study, but the two of them have to work very hard.

Seeing that Yu Xian didn't answer, Bai Xiaoyuan explained again: "Winning the victory is actually not the most important thing, but working towards a goal with friends is the best feeling. Even if it's not a ball game, don't It's the same."

After hearing Bai Xiaoyuan's words, Yu Xian was silent for a moment and suddenly said, "Have you planned which university you want to go to?"

Bai Xiaoyuan was taken aback by this sudden question, and replied: "...Y is big."

"Then from now on, I will work hard towards Y with you, how does it feel?"

Bai Xiaoyuan still stared at Yu Xian with the surprised expression just now, then suddenly buried his head in his arms.

Yu Xian heard the other party's vague answer: "It's over, I'm under pressure."

Yu Xian said: "What pressure? Are you afraid that I will squeeze you out?" After all, universities all have their own admission quotas. If it is so unfortunate that you are stuck in the last place, then students with high scores will be admitted, and those with low scores will be admitted. You can only miss your ideal.

"What I'm afraid of is not the matter of 'you squeeze me down', but, Yu Xian, you will definitely be able to pass the exam, but I may not."

Yu Xian smiled, "How do you know that I'm 'definitely' able to pass the exam? I don't even have the confidence. Where did you come from?"

Bai Xiaoyuan was still lying on the table, but turned his head to face Yu Xian. He looked at Yu Xian and said firmly, "You can achieve what you want to achieve."

Looking at Bai Xiaoyuan's trusting expression, Yu Xian suddenly became excited. Although he knew that he could not achieve what Bai Xiaoyuan said, Bai Xiaoyuan said it with a sincere expression. When saying this, Yu Xian really felt that he might be a pretty good person for a moment.

If he didn't have any advantages, how could Bai Xiaoyuan be so attractive and like his friend so much.

Yu Xian knew in his heart that Bai Xiaoyuan's liking for him was only the kind between friends, but what kind of liking was he for Bai Xiaoyuan?Yu Xian didn't want to deceive himself, but if he could deceive himself, he should feel better.But he doesn't know how to hypnotize, how can he deceive his heart?

So Yu Xian felt that those mental activities of self-deception could be ignored, since it was futile anyway.As long as he can fool Bai Xiaoyuan, it will be fine.No, don't even lie, as long as you don't show it, the other person will never know, which is fine.I don't know if I will be in love with another person in the future, how long the high school student's love can last, I am definitely not a long-term person, definitely not.

Yu Xian was silent. Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Xiaoyuan joked, "Come here, classmate, please tell me your dream. Do you want to be a billionaire or climb to Pluto?"

Yu Xian lowered his eyes, pretended to be casual, and replied: "My dream is to be admitted to the same university as Bai Xiaoyuan, live in the same staff dormitory after graduation, and reach the pinnacle of life with him."

"Wow, you still have me in your life dream, I'm so touched." Bai Xiaoyuan laughed, "But in the end, did you miss someone to marry Bai Fumei?"

"Go marry someone else." Yu Xian curled his lips, thinking that Bai Xiaoyuan really didn't open any pot.

"Oh, don't be angry, it's okay if you don't get married. In the future, you can raise seven dogs and eight cats to ensure a colorful life."

"At that time, I will pack my family's zoo and send it to your house."

The day of the basketball game is coming soon, and Bai Xiaoyuan is still participating in the game in other provinces.For the first time, Yu Xian stood by the basketball court and watched the game. The classmates in the class were quite surprised. Some of them were familiar with Yu Xian, so they came up and asked him if there was something wrong in his mind.

Yu Xian was quite helpless: "Help Bai Xiaoyuan pay attention to the battle situation, go back and call him."

The students all said that you can understand other than the score, Bai Xiaoyuan asked you to call him, it was really kicked by the donkey.

Yu Xian could only twitch the corner of his mouth and said, "Then how about you call him?"

So after winning the basketball game, when Yu Xian went to the storage room at the back of the classroom to make a phone call, he was followed by several boys.Yu Xian only said hello and started, and left the rest to those "professionals".

By the time they finished explaining the fierce fighting situation, it was almost time for class.The students returned to their seats, Yu Xian took back his phone and asked, "I won't talk about the ball game. How was your exam?"

"Answer everything you can." Bai Xiaoyuan's voice was a little hoarse, which was made when he yelled with the excited classmates just now, and he said with a smile, "I don't know what the result will be, so it's like this Bar."

Yu Xian said: "Efforts will always pay off." He is sitting at the same table as Bai Xiaoyuan, so he can naturally know how many self-study classes Bai Xiaoyuan has taken in the competition class. exercise.Bai Xiaoyuan always said that he doesn't like studying and doesn't want to work hard, but in fact he has worked very hard.

"I hope so." Bai Xiaoyuan's voice was brisk, and the topic changed, "Salted fish, why are you filling me with chicken soup? It's not your usual painting style."

Yu Xian smiled and said, "Let's talk when you come back, class is about to start."

The basketball game is considered the last big event of this semester. After that, there are probably only monthly exams, midterm exams, and final exams that can be compared.

Since Yu Xian made great progress in the final exam last semester, he has maintained his previous ranking, even if there were fluctuations, he did not exceed one hundred.

Looking at Yu Xian's achievements, Bai Xiaoyuan only feels honored—although Yu Xian's progress seems to have little to do with him, but as the saying goes, "Military medals are half as much as you are, and half as much as your tablemate"... Oh, no such slang.But Bai Xiaoyuan is sincerely proud that his friend is so good!

It's just that such a ranking also brings more pressure.

Bai Xiaoyuan feels that Yu Xian's mood seems to be a little depressed recently, but he can't help directly, because the pressure in Yu Xian's heart is his own, and Bai Xiaoyuan can only spend more time with Yu Xian during recess. When chatting and speaking, pay more attention to Yu Xian's emotions.

However, the two also have their own busy ways during the break, so their conversations are carried out when they have things at hand.The two looked down at the books or papers on their respective desks, and sometimes they were still writing quickly, but the intermittent conversation did not disturb any of them, because there was no concern about talking to each other, sometimes Even their sentences are organized in fragments, but the person listening will not care and can answer well.

Bai Xiaoyuan looked at Yu Xian who seemed to have improved but was still too tense, and decided to take him to relax during the summer vacation.Although the teacher said that the summer vacation before the third year of high school is very important, in the teacher's mouth, it seems that every vacation is very important, and it is a terrible existence of "as long as you don't work hard, you will be dragged down by others".

Although hard work during the holidays is also essential, it is also important to adjust the state before entering the third year of high school.

The last subject of the final exam was English, and Bai Xiaoyuan couldn't help but lose his mind when he finished answering the examination paper, thinking about how to persuade Yu Xian to go out with him during the summer vacation, where to go and how long it would be more appropriate .

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and in the end they couldn't go somewhere to have a good time during this holiday.
