two

After school at noon, there will always be a small group of people separated from the restless crowd in the noisy and chaotic classroom, keeping their seats with indifferent expressions.

If you were on the sidelines, there was a vague attitude of tolerance.

They gave up burdening the long queue and chose to eat leftovers from the cafeteria during off-peak hours.

Yuan Mu has always been one of them.

Yu Xiuxi came to look for someone with the test paper today, but saw him tidying up the table, as if he was about to leave.

He hesitated.

Yuan Mu noticed it, and stopped his hand to collect the book at the right time, raised his head and asked him with his eyes.

"I want to ask you a question. The last big question, Lao Li, was too fast..." Yu Xiuxi lit up the paper in his hand, his eyes widened.

Every time he comes to ask questions, he speaks in a low voice and laughs bluntly, but he is not insincere. When meeting good people, he may be more willing to show his heart and soul to him because of his jerky communication skills.

Yuan Mu doesn't know that, he doesn't make a difference between being glib or clumsy, neither one can be treated specially based on its qualities.

He is a stable and inert substance, and he has little awareness of making adjustments and changes for others.

At this time Qiu Yu had already stood in the corridor, quietly.

From this angle, only his broad back and narrow waist can be seen, and the scene is framed in the window.

"Excuse me, can I have a self-study class in the afternoon?" Yuan Mu said.

While Qiu Yu was waiting, he couldn't do anything, waiting was his only action.

Maybe it was because he never expected to be rejected by Yuan Mu, Yu Xiuxi didn't know how to deal with it, he was stunned, and slowly brewed a reply.

"Self-study class in the afternoon."

Yuan Mu answered for him, then lowered his head and stuffed the last book into the belly of the table.

The clouds were too thick, the sun didn't come out, and it was another cloudy day.

"What is he looking for from you?"

Going downstairs, Qiu Yu was a few steps behind him.

"Who?"

"do not know."

"Oh, ask me a question."

"So fast?"

"Didn't tell him."

"how."

Qiu Yu asked very intentionally.

Yuan Mu stepped down the last step, and turned his head to look at him drastically.

"Because I'm hungry."

Yuan Mu said.

Qiu Yu raised her neck to look at the sky, her Adam's apple and jawline were very prominent.

Knowing that Yuan Mu was still looking at him, he bit his lower lip, the corners of his mouth were curled up, and he tried hard not to smile.

The cafeteria was full of people, and they were closer than they were outside.

Afraid of being separated, afraid of not hearing the conversation.

In fact, it is difficult to get separated, and they don't talk much, but the space is small and the crowd is dense, and no one pays attention to who is next to whom.

In this environment, approaching is instinctive.

Yuan Mu led Qiu Yu to stand at the end of the longest line.

Qiu Yu reminded: "This row... seems to have the most people."

Yuan Mu: "The aunt at this window doesn't shake her hands."

Qiu Yu: "Oh——"

Yuan Mu turned to him and shook his wrist: "Come in front of me."

"What?" Qiu Yu questioned, but still moved forward with his strength, thinking about hating that the sleeves of the sweater were too long.

Yuan Mu: "You order first, and I will swipe your card for you."

Qiu Yu: "Oh——"

"Why do you always like to stand behind me?"

Yuan Mu seemed to be talking to himself.

Because I tried, if you stand behind me, you will never wait for you to speak to me, and I will look silly and deliberate when I turn around frequently.

Qiu Yu looked at him over his shoulder, and said solemnly: "Who told you that you are shorter than me."

Afterwards, I was speechless throughout the whole process, until I walked to the corner and sat down, and when I was adjusting the chopsticks, there was a little atmosphere for formal questions and answers.

After wiping the chopsticks and spoons with a napkin, Yuan Mu handed a copy to Qiu Yu and said, "You told me to tell me when you were eating during class."

"say what?"

Yuan Mu sat across from him, grasped his chopsticks and looked at him for a few seconds, then stopped talking and turned his eyes down to eat.

Qiu Yu said, "Then you ask me first.

Otherwise, I'll be talking like a report by myself. "

Seeing that he wanted to put down the chopsticks, he grabbed them again, "Talking while eating."

"You are here today, did Madam Xu ask you to come?"

Yuan Mu is most concerned about this.

"No."

Qiu Yu noticed that his shoulders had relaxed, and began to put vegetables into his mouth.

"What do you think?"

"What do you want me to do in summer vacation?"

Qiu Yu returns.

“…maximize resource utilization.”

Oh, admit it's you.

"What I was thinking, I don't know.

So, it's better to take the initiative to choose than to be forced by her.

In doing so, it's not her controlling me. "

The corner is surrounded by large dirty floor-to-ceiling windows, Qiu Yu looked at the blurred figures of passers-by and said, "It's quite interesting to learn when you're not under her control.

Much more fun than fighting her. "

There are countless reasons when people make decisions, and it is impossible to break everything down for you and give you a comprehensive explanation.

Yuan Musi and Qiu Xi are about to enter No. [-] Middle School in September, and this may be one of them.

Inadvertently caught a glimpse, on the glass window, Yuan Mu's face was almost transparent, with an erratic expression.

Qiu Yu hated this sense of unreality, and turned back to look at him exactly.

"I'm quite happy."

He lowered his head and chewed the food carefully.

"What?" Qiu Yu didn't want to play the foolish trick again, but just suspected that she had heard it wrong.

"I can sit in the same classroom with you in the last year."

Yuan Mu didn't think he was naive this time, but he was not allowed to say anything about this sentence, so he immediately jumped to the topic to confuse his emotions, "But it's really a coincidence, so many classes... I was scared when I saw you. I jump."

"No, you were so sleepy when I saw you."

"fart."

"Who do you hang out with in class?"

"It's about the same."

That is not so good?

Qiu Yu nodded: "Let's all have dinner together in the future.

noon.

If you don't go home. "

"......what?"

"It's more delicious for two people to eat."

Qiu Yu learned from ten-year-old Yuan Mu, knowing that he would not remember, and added, "You said so."

Why did he suddenly open his mouth and mention the long, narrow, thin, and fragile area in front of him?

"Let's go together."

Qiu Yu answered for him.

Went with Qiu Yu to the leftovers processing area with the rice plate, heard him say thank you to the aunt in the cafeteria, then turned around and commented that the braised pork was really good, no wonder Qian Jin always wanted to skip class to try the cafeteria of No. [-] Middle School.

How about recommending you braised lion head next time.

After dinner, I went to the supermarket to buy water. Qiu Yu asked him in the distance for help in front of the cash register, Yuan Mu, I am short of one yuan in change.

Like a couple who survived the seven-year itch.

In the second physical education class in the afternoon, Qiu Yu played basketball with the boys in the class and easily scored a three-pointer. His teammates raised their hands over their heads, applauded and whistled. He tied his shoes and looked at him on the sidelines.

See what I do, show off.

Occasionally and frequently, these ordinary moments give rise to a sense of dream.

Yuan Mu couldn't digest the fact that they were reunited in the same world again.

But Qiu Yu looked very calm and familiar, whether facing Yuan Mu or this new class.

It was obviously the same answer sheet, but he was confident as if he had entered the arena with the correct answer, leaving Yuan Mu alone to feel overwhelmed and annoyed.

I was playing basketball at first, but I don't know why the group of boys fell to the ground and did push-ups again.

Huang Chenyu had to wait for Qiu Yu to pick up one. Qiu Yu was annoyed by him, so she gave a high five and stopped to wait for him to pick up after she finished.

Huang Chenyu stretched out his arms and prepared for a long time, then he smiled and fell down on the field in discouragement. Damn, you are still better.

Yuan Mu sat under the shade of a tree, and clearly realized another thing.

As long as Qiu Yu is willing, he can establish and maintain a friendly relationship with anyone at any time.

He looks away, which is best.

Because it is still in the make-up period, there is no evening self-study, and the fourth class can leave as soon as the bell rings.

Yuan Mu came by bicycle this morning, he lingered a few steps at the door of the classroom.

In fact, he had already thought about a class, and finally made a hasty decision within the two-step time. He escaped from the flow of people and walked to the carport.

Qiu Yu walked out of the classroom and did not see Yuan Mu, so she stopped moving forward, but stayed in the corridor looking towards the playground.

Huang Chenyu passed by and patted him: "Why don't you go home?"

The crowd did not subside, and Yuan Mu appeared on the school road riding a bicycle.

"Let's go."

Qiu Yu followed him downstairs.

Really dial and move.

Can't we go home together?

Or it's because I'm too greedy to say that eating together has reached the limit.

Then tomorrow—oh, should I call him next Monday?

Qiu Yu leisurely returned to the street, everyone had finished their dinner.

Qian Jin set up a chair by the mahjong table to watch over his father, watching Qiu Yu come and arrest him.

"Are you blocking me here?" Qiu Yu laughed.

"Wow, did you really go to No. [-] Middle School?" Qian Jin walked towards his house together with him.

"Yes, do you want to go together?"

"What am I going to do?"

"Go fuck and study."

Qiu Yu wanted to give him a blow on the head, "I saw Yang Lanqing in class."

"Huh? Yang Lanqing? Why mention her?"

"Don't you—well, like her?"

Qian Jin got goosebumps: "Why do you have such a good memory, I can't even remember this person if you don't tell me.

Alas, the love at that time was playing house, which one is serious?But she is really pretty, now what? "

Qiu Yu was silent for a few seconds.

"Depend on."

He turned his head irritably.
