swig

Intuition told him that this kind of money transfer without careful consideration was testing Jiang Chu's anger on the verge of bursting.

Soon he heard Jiang Chu's mobile phone "beep" in his pocket.

He stuffed the last piece of braised pork on the plate into his mouth with lightning speed, then took the plate and ran quickly and said: "Old Ban asked me to go to her office for lunch break, I will go first."

Jiang Chu: "..."

What's wrong.

Seeing Jiang Chu's expression of bewilderment, Xu Jing said in a daze, "Running so fast, is there a dog chasing him?"

In the next second, he saw Jiang Chu's gloomy face, a huge change visible to the naked eye, and he almost wrote "don't get close to strangers" written on his face.

Xu Jing bumped Li Mao with his elbow, and asked softly, "Have you finished eating?"

It doesn't matter whether you eat or not, but the life of a dog is important. The two disappeared in an instant because they had to write the test paper at noon and the refills were not enough and they had to go to the convenience store to buy things.

The sky was so hot that even the shade of the trees that covered the sky and the sun couldn't settle down. Spots of light that leaked from the leaves covered the ground, and the stars swayed with the summer wind.

There was a transfer message lying on the phone.

For a moment, Jiang Chu felt that his heart was suddenly twitched by the hanging branches, and he stared at the message for a long time in the shade of the tree in a daze.

It was so long that my eyes were a little sore, and my mood calmed down, before I recovered from the sudden ringing of the phone.

It was Jiang Xuyang who called. After finally calming down, he was aroused by the three words displayed on the phone.

The phone rang a few times and he didn't answer it, and it rang again a few seconds after hanging up.

"I'm in class, do you have anything to do?" Jiang Chu said bluntly.

The man on the other end of the phone obviously didn't have much patience, and easily exposed his lie with a snort: "It's lunch break now, do you think I haven't read a book?"

Jiang Chu was absent-minded, and didn't want to discuss with him whether it's lunch break time, so he asked straightforwardly: "If you have something to say, just say it."

Jiang Xuyang showed little hesitation, which was not like his usual style. He has always been a vigorous and resolute person.

"Don't tell me I'm hanging up." Just as Jiang Chu was about to hang up, the other side finally agreed to say anything.

After a pause, Jiang Xuyang suddenly said, "I'm going to Guangzhou, and I will stay for about two months..."

Jiang Chu felt that he was talking nonsense, and it was common for Jiang Xuyang to travel for three or four months, so he would at most send him a text message to inform him, and sometimes Jiang Chu only knew about it after hearing what Aunt Zhang said.

It's strange, when will he make a special call because of a business trip.

"And then?" Jiang Chu asked.

He originally wanted to hang up directly, but sensitively sensed something from Jiang Xuyang's stammering tone, so he changed his mind temporarily.

Jiang Xuyang choked for a moment, and said just now: "Your Aunt Zhao is not in good health in Guangzhou. I'll go over and see. She may come to live with us for a while, that's all."

Didn't say okay?It's not asking for his opinion, it's just telling him, maybe there are other meanings.

Jiang Chu breathed a sigh of relief, and vaguely remembered who this Aunt Zhao was from his rare relaxed tone.

Aunt Zhao's name is Zhao Lin, and she is one of Jiang Xuyang's many girlfriends. Jiang Xuyang is a bastard, but not enough to bring everyone home. Zhao Lin is the only real girlfriend of Jiang Xuyang he has ever seen.

In Jiang Chu's impression, Zhao Lin was less than ten years older than himself, and he didn't know how Jiang Xuyang licked his face and said the words "Aunt Zhao".

"No." Jiang Chu blurted out without thinking.

But obviously Jiang Chu's reaction was within Jiang Xuyang's expectation, he said in a muffled voice, "I'm just telling you, not discussing with you."

Jiang Xuyang's innate strength is not only displayed to the fullest at work, but also in life. Whether it is for Jiang Chu or anyone around him, once he has made up his mind, it is difficult to reverse the situation.

There is no room for negotiation with such strength, and of course Jiang Chu didn't want to discuss it with Jiang Xuyang.

He twitched the corner of his mouth, and said in a deep voice, "It's not a discussion, why are you telling me?"

"Your Aunt Zhao is not in good health, so don't make her unhappy when you move in."

It sounds a bit ridiculous, but I really don't know if it means a notification or a warning.

Jiang Xuyang knew that with Jiang Chu and Zhao Lin's personalities, if they lived under the same roof, there would be no conflicts, so his phone call was a preventive shot in advance.

But Jiang Chu is not a fool, the subtext of poor health is that Zhao Lin may be pregnant, so it is very likely that Jiang Xuyang will have a child of his own in a year, so there is no need for a psychiatric appraisal, and he is not afraid that he is a cat who dislikes dogs. That kind of kid.

For some reason, Jiang Chu didn't hate him as much as he imagined for having a younger brother or younger sister. Instead, he seemed to be relieved of some burden.

"Understood." Jiang Chu replied.

Through the phone, Jiang Xuyang couldn't hear the emotion in his tone. After a while, Jiang Chu said again: "I live on campus."

It's not that I want to live on campus, it's that I live on campus.

Probably Jiang Chu himself didn't realize that he had a side similar to Jiang Xuyang, once he made a decision, unless he gave up, it would be difficult for others to reverse it.

"Oh." Jiang Xuyang drew a long ending sound thoughtfully, as if he was considering this proposal: "It's not impossible for you to live on campus, I happen to be in your school, but this semester is fine, then let me ask Can the teacher apply next semester?"

Jiang Chu always felt that Jiang Xuyang knew nothing about him and his studies, but now it seems that is not the case, at least he knows that the summer vacation is two months, so he said to go to Guangdong for two months, and he also knows how to communicate with him quietly. Quietly let him offer to live in school.

Very ridiculous.

The scorching sun above his head was about to bake a hole in his back, the hot moisture slowly rose, and the cicadas chirped intermittently. He sat in the shade of the tree for a long time until someone tapped his right shoulder. Only belatedly realized one thing -

Jiang Xuyang really bothered, and he really wanted to leave that home.

When he turned around, he saw Gu Zhi, who squinted his eyes and smiled at him, tilted his head and said, "You're really free, have you checked the English test paper this afternoon?"

Jiang Chu felt that the sun was too strong, and he was a little dizzy from the sun.

So when his eyes touched the young man who was also taken care of by Lie Yang, he swallowed all his emotions, nodded and said, "It's done."

The sound was very small, and it would dissipate as soon as the wind blew, which was very unlike Jiang Dashen's usual style.

Gu Zhi pretended to be confused, then leaned over and said in a low voice, "Then can you help me with the chemistry problems?"

Jiang Chu was a little surprised by Gu Zhi's initiative to ask him for help, so for a moment he looked a little surprised.

"Why are you looking at me like this?" Gu Zhi touched his face uncomfortably and said, "Is there something on my face?"

Jiang Chu withdrew his gaze, put the phone in his pocket, rubbed his eyes, and said with a bit of sarcasm, "Do you still need help?"

Gu Zhi was stunned: "What are you talking about? The ancients said that they are not ashamed to ask. Of course, there is a tablemate who is the first in the grade."

This bragging came too suddenly, and it was not Gu Zhi's normal style of painting at all, so Jiang Chu didn't realize for a while that Gu Zhi had taken the wrong medicine.

"Are you going to help?" Gu Zhi seemed a little impatient, but he was actually afraid that Jiang Chu would see something.

I've never seen someone so rude asking for help.

Don't you feel ashamed to ask?

Jiang Chu lowered his head, pursed his lips and smiled, and said reluctantly, "That's fine..."

The long corridor of Zhixing Building is endless at a glance. The students on the upper floor always like to lie on the railing after class and during lunch break, counting who is the best in the basketball game in a few classes. On the list of outstanding students in the district.

The vortex above the head is like faint water ripples, and there are always a few that are different from ordinary people.

Under the scorching sun, the teenagers were running around, and the corners of their shirts were flooded with the dawn of midsummer.

Because of the English test paper that was handed out in the morning, it was rare that the classroom didn't get all slumped together. They all took advantage of the lunch break to make up the questions, and more than forty heads were all buried on the desks.

Jiang Chu's cell phone rang twice in his pocket, it was a very light vibration, probably a text message from Jiang Xuyang.

Jiang Chu didn't take it out to look at it, maybe it was because it was inconvenient for Gu Zhi to be around, or maybe it was because he finally calmed down a bit and didn't want to be called back to his original shape by a text message.

The exercise book he gave Gu Zhi was spread out on the table, it was still new and untouched, Jiang Chu glanced at it and asked, "Isn't it not written yet?"

Gu Zhi smiled awkwardly: "The difficulty is indeed beyond expectation."

Talking nonsense and not drafting.

"This question." Jiang Chu casually picked a pen from his pen bag and drew a circle on the first question and said, "It's exactly the same on the test paper. I remember you didn't deduct points for this question."

Gu Zhi: "..."

"And this question." He continued to draw a circle: "Zhou Jing (the chemistry teacher) took it out and talked about it on the blackboard." He still didn't forget to help him recall, pointing to the right side of the blackboard and said: "It's right there. "

Gu Zhi: "..."

"And..." Jiang Chu was about to continue, but was interrupted by Gu Zhi: "I know, I know."

"So, why don't you understand?" Jiang Chu looked at him from the seat, looking a bit like watching a show.

Because he was talking nonsense, Gu Zhi couldn't think of any specific problems for a while.He simply took out the test paper and laid it out, then took out a piece of draft paper and put it aside: "Either you tell me about all the questions that deducted points from yesterday, and I will try to make up a second class with you in the next test." Gemini?"

Gu Zhi tried his best to talk, and Jiang Chu tried his best to believe his nonsense.

Gu Zhi didn't seriously ask Jiang Chu for advice, but he didn't expect him to enter Teacher Jiang's state quite quickly.

Because he told Gu Zhi the questions all afternoon, he temporarily put Jiang Xuyang's matter behind him.

And in the whole afternoon after that, Gu Zhi always looked for him if he had anything to do, as deliberately as in the morning. Although he had questions, Jiang Chu still took the trouble to answer every question.

In the last week of the final exam, the freshmen and sophomores entered into an intense preparation atmosphere, which was as enthusiastic as the sun in June. Of course, the students in the fast class also had a faint expectation besides anxiety.

At the end of the final exam every year, the top [-] students in the school will enter the school's honor wall. Until the final exam of the next semester, their names will remain on the honor roll that students must pass. Ten basic markets are contracted by four fast classes.

Gu Zhi joked, if you can top the list at the end of the semester, I will write five sets of chemistry exercises backwards during the summer vacation.

Jiang Chu narrowed his eyes, then carefully picked out three pens from the pencil bag and gave them to him, and said in a serious manner: "I bought the exercise book by myself, and I provided the pens."

Gu Zhi found that Jiang Chu has a good way of being angry, sometimes he is quiet, sometimes he is bluffing, but the results are very obvious.

Most of the time, Gu Zhi was driven mad by Jiang Chu's anger, but he himself looked on coldly as if he had nothing to do with his face, and occasionally made a remark, which was extremely hateful.

Time is like the annual rings on an ancient tree stump. The accumulation of one circle after another is getting denser and denser. When I was immersed in the problem, I didn't feel that it was going slowly. For the sake of a second class of twin stars, Gu Zhi came down for a week. After losing four catties, he felt for the first time that he was studying besides sleeping. He felt that his soul was about to be sublimated.

After finishing the questions at night and coming out after washing his face, he couldn't help asking himself, why should I do this?However, after asking, he would still scratch his head and continue to brush.

Because he didn't want to break his promise and gain weight, he had a nightmare all night before the final exam. He dreamed that Newton asked him why he didn't eat apples, and he also dreamed that Kun in "Escape" turned into a piranha in an American TV series. Watching him, he finally dreamed of being in the political and educational office of Nanchuan No. [-] Middle School, a man in a neat suit smiling at passers-by while talking on the phone. He felt terrified and sweated profusely when he woke up.

The moment he opened his eyes, he hadn't separated his dream from reality. On a midsummer night, the air conditioner in his room was very low. He was wrapped in a thin quilt and buried his head in it until he was covered in sweat. , he belatedly realized how familiar the last scene was——

That day, after transferring the money to Jiang Chu from the cafeteria, he went straight to the Political and Education Office.

There are tall glass windows on both sides of the corridor of the Political and Religious Office. Because they do not block the scorching sun, huge light spots will fall directly on the ground through them. When people stand there, their shadows will be drawn very long.

When Gu Zhi walked into the office that day, he saw that besides He Wen, there was also a middle-aged man in a neat suit. He looked up and saw Gu Zhi come in and smiled at him.

Gu Zhi felt that this person looked familiar, but he was sure that he had never seen this person before.

It's a very strange feeling.

Standing at the door of He Wen's office, Gu Zhi heard the phone ringing in the pocket of the man in the suit. He said hello to He Wen and went out to answer the phone. Before leaving, Gu Zhi heard him say something to the phone. Export freight claim form or something like that.

He thought, do insurance sellers dare to go to the school to sell it now?

After he went out, there were only two people left in the office. He Wen briefly chatted with him about his recent chemistry exams, and kindly reminded him not to deviate from the subject, otherwise there would be big troubles in the college entrance examination.

Gu Zhi responded one by one. When he left the political and educational office, the man was still answering the phone in the corridor. When he saw Gu Zhi, he raised his eyes and smiled again, then deliberately lowered his voice.

Despite being deliberate, Gu Zhi still accidentally heard the word Jiang Chu.

The tone of voice was obviously different from that of the person who answered the phone when he first came out.

He suddenly understood a little bit about the familiar strangeness when he saw this person for the first time just now. For some reason, although he was meticulous, his stubborn instinct was uneasy.

There is obviously a certain breathless strength in the gentle tone.

When he went downstairs, his feet were floating, as if he was stepping on soft cotton. He only came to a conclusion when he heard two inconsistent words when passing by.

Jiang Chu's father drove him to live in school.

He didn't know how Jiang Chu on the other end of the phone responded, but with Jiang Chu's character, he knew he couldn't say anything good.

He thought that if it was Gu Qian who was calling instead of Jiang Chu, how would he answer?It's a pity that he is not Jiang Chu, and there is no If.

When he reached the first floor, he looked up. In fact, he couldn't hear any movement downstairs, but from Jiang Xuyang's expression, Gu Zhi felt that he heard two embarrassing laughter.

He lowered his head and almost ran to the cafeteria. At the door, he met Xu Jing and Li Mao who came out of the convenience store.

Hearing Xu Jing and Li Mao's words, he turned around and hurried towards Zhixing Building.

Because of the haste of running, fine sweat dripped from his forehead.

Then he saw a familiar figure under the strong shade of a tree, Jiang Chu didn't know what he was looking at in a daze.
