Fork in the road

Yu Xian turned on the TV, and sat next to the tea table with Bai Xiaoyuan, holding half a watermelon and digging to eat.Bai Xiaoyuan looked at the TV and asked, "What program do you want to watch?"

Yu Xian replied: "Being a BGM to prevent embarrassment."

For a moment, Bai Xiaoyuan didn't know how to respond to Yu Xian's strange thoughtfulness, so he could only laugh dryly, and asked, "By the way, where did you go to junior high school?"

"In X, I remember you were in Y?"

"Ah, you actually know."

"Even if some people don't live in front of your eyes, they still live tenaciously in your ears." Yu Xian was expressionless, "My mother often told me about you."

Bai Xiaoyuan was a little excited, "Did you mention my grades?"

"No. It's just about life. My mother also heard it from your mother. It seems that your parents don't mention your studies very much." Yu Xian dug a mouthful of watermelon and thought while chewing, Generally speaking, Bai Xiaoyuan still played a very important and annoying role in his life at that time - other people's children.

Bai Xiaoyuan cooks and cleans at home by himself, although he didn't mention his studies, but in terms of independence alone, Yu Xian is more than a few blocks away.Every time Yu Xian heard this kind of words, he wanted to refute. Could it be that he should move out alone to experience an independent life?But just thinking about it, Yu Xian didn't think there was any need to argue with Hu Yue in this regard.She likes Bai Xiaoyuan as long as she likes it, and it's okay to dislike herself. Anyway, except for Hu Yue's chattering spirit on this point, she has always been a kind and cheerful mother at other times.

"Oh, speaking of this, I still don't think I can apologize to you." Bai Xiaoyuan scratched his hair, flattened the corner of his mouth, bit himself in his mouth without force, looked down at the watermelon and said , "At that time, I was also so stupid that I was bubbling. If it weren't for you, I might...not to mention it would be over, but without you helping me, I would definitely not be able to get to where I am now. In the end, not only did I not thank you, I moved It seemed to be a little unpleasant when it happened...Anyway, I'm sorry."

Yu Xian just sat there quietly, looking at Bai Xiaoyuan's lowered head and listening. There was no dissatisfaction with the expression on his face at that time, nor was he surprised after hearing the apology. When Bai Xiaoyuan finished speaking, Yu Xian Xian said: "It's okay." He pointed lightly, "Give me that piece, and this matter will be over."

Bai Xiaoyuan followed Yu Xian's finger to look over, and found that the other was pointing at the watermelon in his hand, and the position was aimed at the sweetest bite in the middle that he was saving for the last time.Bai Xiaoyuan was overjoyed, picked up a spoon and scooped out the watermelon, and put the piece of watermelon into Yu Xian's half watermelon.

Yu Xian didn't take this matter to heart, Bai Xiaoyuan felt relieved, and immediately went over seriously, he asked with a smile: "Hey, Xianyu, how much score did you get in the high school entrance examination?"

Yu Xian reported an answer, and Bai Xiaoyuan said in surprise: "You are only eight points ahead of me!"

Bai Xiaoyuan's words didn't mean any sarcasm, it was just what he thought in his heart, because in his eyes, he was still the person who was far behind Yu Xian, so even if Bai Xiaoyuan's grades were ranked at the top, But Yu Xian's shining image of a schoolmaster in his heart will never fade away.

Yu Xian became much calmer, he nodded, "Then you've reached the public line, not bad."

Bai Xiaoyuan bared his teeth and laughed, he said emotionally, "I don't know if we can be assigned to the same class."

"Who knows."

"By the way, Xianyu, will you eat in the cafeteria at noon or go home?" Bai Xiaoyuan remembered this question.

"My parents are not in charge of meals at work, so I will come back to take a nap after eating in the cafeteria."

"That's just right, I'm with you too, I've been too lazy to cook for myself... The canteen in our junior high school is terrible." Bai Xiaoyuan curled her lips in disgust.

"Speaking of this, my mother has often told me how delicious your cooking is, as if she can eat it every day." Yu Xian said expressionlessly.

The school cafeteria where he was in junior high school was not bad, so he ate there for three years, but every time he ate at home on weekends, he had to be baptized by his mother in the kitchen. Regarding Bai Xiaoyuan's affairs, listening to Bai Xiaoyuan's affairs while chopping vegetables... In short, the kitchen is probably a good place to arouse Hu Yue's desire to praise Bai Xiaoyuan.Anyway, as soon as Yu Xian entered the kitchen, Bai Xiaoyuan's name automatically rang in his ears, surrounded by 3D, haunting him.

Although Bai Xiaoyuan didn't know why he was praised by Yu Xian's mother, it didn't stop him from being happy, and he immediately promised: "Anyway, we live close to each other now, so I'll come over to help Auntie during the holidays. "

"I'm afraid that she will directly let you make a table full of Chinese people." Yu Xian shook his head.

Bai Xiaoyuan looked at Yu Xian helplessly, and said, "Dear?"

"Dear."

Bai Xiaoyuan laughed out loud, and replied: "I have always been the little Yuanzi by the queen mother's side, so I can't understand the daily life of your family mocking each other."

"I remember that aunt doesn't seem to be at home often?"

"She can crush me from a distance." Bai Xiaoyuan took a bite of watermelon and replied deeply.

Bai Xiaoyuan, who had a pleasant chat and also solved the homework problem, returned home contentedly.When I was at Yu Xian's house, I had already made an appointment to go to school together when I reported the day after tomorrow. Although the two of them may not be in the same class, Bai Xiaoyuan somehow felt that he had a solid foundation in his heart and was quite at ease.

The last day of the holiday was unbelievably fast, and in a blink of an eye it was already the day of registration for freshmen. Bai Xiaoyuan rode his bicycle towards Yu Xian's house, and saw Yu Xian already waiting downstairs on the pedals.

"Hey Xianyu! Let's go!" Bai Xiaoyuan rode past him, didn't stop, just slowed down a little, and patted Yu Xian on the shoulder.

Yu Xian didn't speak, but silently followed.

Bai Xiaoyuan chattered endlessly along the way, and he was not afraid of talking while riding a bicycle. Obviously, he was a little excited to enter high school on the first day, while Yu Xian talked a lot less than Bai Xiaoyuan. He was too busy listening to what Bai Xiaoyuan had to say.

The two parked their cars and arrived at the small square of the school. They finally squeezed into the layers of people surrounding the bulletin board and saw the specific situation of class division.Bai Xiaoyuan wanted to start from the first class to look at it from the beginning, but Yu Xian squeezed directly to the back. Bai Xiaoyuan just saw the fifth class just now, when Yu Xian grabbed his clothes and dragged him out of the crowd.

"Students whose grades are above the public fee line are all in classes [-] to [-]." Yu Xian looked at Bai Xiaoyuan's blank expression, and was also blank for a moment, "You don't know?"

"Totally, I don't know." Looking at Yu Xian's expression, Bai Xiaoyuan asked uncertainly, "Could it be that there are many people who know about this?"

"Although not all of them, but most of them..."

Bai Xiaoyuan came to his senses and didn't care about the grades or not, but asked directly: "Which class are we both in?"

Yu Xian laughed, "They're all in Class [-]."

Bai Xiaoyuan clenched his fist excitedly, "Oh yeah! Fate!"

After paying the tuition fees, the two of them collected their school uniforms and headed towards Class [-] of Senior High School.When I entered the door, I found that it was bustling inside. Most of the classrooms were already filled with freshmen, but the teacher didn't seem to come yet.

Although the classrooms in high school are larger than those in junior high school, they feel more crowded because there are more people in Sheng.There are four rows of desks in two rows in the classroom. Bai Xiaoyuan and Yu Xian sat in the middle and back seat casually. After sitting down, Bai Xiaoyuan said with a disappointed face: "Why is school starting now? I haven't rested yet." enough..."

Yu Xian's expression was flat, but what he said meant the same thing, "I always feel like my vacation is over before it even begins."

"Besides, this summer homework was added out of thin air during the supposedly carefree vacation, tsk." Bai Xiaoyuan shook his head, heartbroken.

As soon as Bai Xiaoyuan finished speaking, the boy sitting in front of him suddenly turned around and asked, "A question, have you done your summer homework?"

Both of them nodded, and a sad look appeared on the man's face. He rubbed his forehead and said, "I asked the seniors and sisters, and they said that the summer homework teachers before the first year of high school were always bad. Accepted, so I didn't write at all... But I asked a few people, it seems that they all wrote the homework except me..."

Bai Xiaoyuan let out a "hey", "My brother is very courageous, but maybe if you really don't check, then you will earn money."

"If checked, I might die."

Bai Xiaoyuan said sincerely, "Pray for you."

After hearing Bai Xiaoyuan's words, the boy's expression became even more bitter.

Yu Xian, who was sitting on the side, listened to what they said, and didn't say any nonsense, but asked directly: "Do you want to borrow homework?"

The boy looked at him differently, "Since you are so active, I will... thank you, I am indeed an alumnus."

"Little Baiyuan, take yours, your words are clear." Yu Xian said, turning his head to ask Bai Xiaoyuan, "You and him are in the same junior high school?"

The boy looked confused and dumb, "I'm Guo Zeyuan, Yu Xian, I'm from the same junior high school as yours, you don't know me anymore?!"

Bai Xiaoyuan took out his homework and handed it over, mercilessly complaining: "Xianyu, how did you get into junior high school in the third year..."

"In the classroom." Yu Xian looked at Guo Zeyuan, "I'm not in the same class as you, how do I know you?"

"But you see, I know you..." Guo Zeyuan took the homework, a little sad, how unpopular he is... He flipped through the homework that wasn't too thick, "Student, your name is Xiaobai ...Uh, Bai Xiaoyuan?"

"Well, Little White Ape is a friendly nickname, just like I call him Xianyu." Bai Xiaoyuan happily explained.

Guo Zeyuan nodded half-understood, "Oh... your writing is really good, I will return it to you as soon as I finish copying it, thank you~"

Bai Xiaoyuan, Bai Guo Zeyuan turned around and asked in a low voice: "You really don't know him? You must have heard of him after three years in a school." It's not that everyone in the whole grade knows him, but even if he doesn't know him. You should have heard or seen it, like Bai Xiaoyuan's school, the examination room is divided according to the ranking, and after three years, those with similar grades are basically familiar.

Yu Xian replied: "I don't hear anything outside the window."

"I only read your novels." Bai Xiaoyuan shook his head, "I think you are just too lazy to socialize."

"It's true to say that, the dozens of people in my class can't be said to be familiar with all of them, how can I have the energy to know people from other classes."

Bai Xiaoyuan straightened up, looked around at the people in the room, but couldn't find any familiar faces, so he asked Yu Xian, "Is there any former classmate of yours in this class?"

"No, I didn't see a familiar name when I looked at the class placement list before."

"Ah, then I'm your only old classmate in this class." Bai Xiaoyuan said casually, "Thinking about it, I'm really a little excited."

Yu Xian's expressionless face had the word indifference in capital letters.

Bai Xiaoyuan smiled and said, "It's not easy to have a familiar person in a completely unfamiliar environment. It's really fate that we were in the same class in high school."
