deep trap

Because Xiao Mao has been receiving treatment in the hospital for a long time, and his blood pressure and blood sugar indicators are very in line with the surgical standards, the kidney transplant operation is finally scheduled to be performed the day after tomorrow.After two days of busy preparations, the old Mao Lu Can and Zhou Yan nervously sent Xiao Mao to the operating room.

The operation lasted for two and a half hours, and when he came out again, Director Wu looked relaxed and laughed and said, "The satisfaction with the renal vascular connection is very high, the operation was very successful, and the function of the transplanted kidney will recover soon, congratulations. "

"Really? Thank you! Thank you, Director Wu!!!" Lao Mao's voice trembled, and he began to wipe his tears again.

Having been Xiaomao's attending physician for more than ten years, Director Wu certainly hopes to see his patients recover soon.He took off his gloves, "You don't need to thank me, this is the doctor's duty, if you want to thank you, thank you friend. According to Mao Xiaowei's condition, the best time for surgery is within ten days after the deterioration. Most patients can't catch up with this time, you can catch up really very lucky."

Not only luck, but also a lifesaver!If it wasn't for Ji Mingze being about the same age as them, Lao Mao would have wanted Xiao Mao to recognize him as his godfather!

"Thank you all, thank you all, I will repay you slowly over there. I made you a pennant, and you must accept it when the time comes, and you are not allowed to refuse!"

The pennant is not considered a bribe, and it is very face-lifting when it is hung in the office. Director Wu pointed helplessly at Lao Mao: "You, you are spending money... OK, I will accept it, but the pennant is not in a hurry, you should observe Xiao Mao first. The situation, when she wakes up, I will take her for a full-body examination, so that I can decide how to use the medicine."

"Alright, remember! Then I'm going back to the ward..."

Lu Can stood aside, looking at Director Wu and Lao Mao's excited smiles, the tension that had been stretched for a long time finally relaxed.After relaxing, my heart felt a little sour again.

Without Teacher Ji's help, they may be able to find a suitable kidney, but they will definitely not be able to catch up with the best time for surgery.It was Mr. Ji who contacted everywhere without sleep, which made the operation so successful.

Lu Can leaned against the wall, took out his mobile phone, and after a few seconds of hesitation, a string of familiar numbers was played, "Hi, I'm Lu Can."

"Well," Ji Mingze asked, "Is the surgery done?"

"It's done, the attending physician said it was very successful, thank you for your help."

"Do you remember what I said, there is no need to say thank you between us. As long as you ask, I will spare no effort to help you."

As long as you speak, I will spare no effort to help you.

Is there really someone in the world who would spare no effort to help another person, at the cost of time, money...even health?

And that person didn't kidnap him morally, asking him to do something.

Is it possible——Lu Can had an extremely dangerous thought——is it possible that Teacher Ji really... likes him?

He couldn't help but think of the half-spoken sentence. Ji Mingze said that he didn't approach him to lie to him. At that time, he didn't dare to ask carefully. He was afraid of falling into the pit again, and even more afraid that he would not get the answer he wanted.

That's it, why don't you ask.

If Teacher Ji is willing to say that he likes him, he may try to get in touch with Teacher Ji again.

After all, he really, really doesn't like to see the tacit understanding between Teacher Ji and the little boy surnamed Dong.

Lu Can deliberated for a moment, cleared his throat, and was about to ask, when someone behind him suddenly shouted: "Xiao Can!"

Lu Can turned back subconsciously: "What's the matter, Brother Yan?"

"Come on, come on," Zhou Yan winked, "Old Mao has a situation."

what's the situation?Lu Can was confused, told Ji Mingze to call later, and followed Zhou Yan back to the sixth floor.

The "situation" that Zhou Yan referred to was a girl.

Walking outside the ward, through the window, a girl wearing a dark green sweater dress and a long straight hair shawl was standing in front of the bed, chatting with Lao Mao while arranging lace.

"Did you see that?" Zhou Yan raised his chin to that side and said in a low voice, "It is said that Lao Mao's friend came to visit Xiao Mao."

"Isn't it normal for Lao Mao to have a few female friends after working for so many years?" Lu Can raised his eyebrows, hating Zhou Yan's fuss for spoiling his good deeds.

"Where is it normal? Think about it, except for iron and porcelain buddies like us, who would go to the hospital to see the sister of an ordinary friend, who can't hide for the sake of courtesy."

That's right, what Zhou Yan said makes sense.Moreover, when the girl looked at Lao Mao with bright eyes and a cowardly expression, it was obvious that she was more than just a simple friend to Lao Mao. ?

"This girl, she looks a bit clear, but she can accept it if she has a good personality." Zhou Yan smacked his mouth.

"It's not that they want to chase you, you've even picked on me," Lu Can pulled Zhou Yan, "Let's go, don't delay people's communication."

Said that Lu Can turned around and was going to find a place to sit for a while, leaving some space for the two inside to get along alone.

As a result, the door behind him was suddenly opened, and a gentle female voice came into his ears: "Are you... Lu Can?"

Lu Can was stunned for a moment, and after seeing the girl's appearance clearly, he still couldn't remember who this was.

Zhou Yan, on the other hand, put on a gloating expression, with "Look at you little bastard making a lot of love debts again" written all over his face, typical of watching the excitement and not being afraid of big things.

No wonder Zhou Yan thinks too much, after all, "My goddess likes Lu Can" happens every day in Boyuan Middle School, and Zhou Yan has also been tricked.So when the girl showed that she knew Lu Can, Zhou Yan's first reaction was that the love triangle was coming again.

Fortunately, the girl was very discerning, and immediately explained: "Don't be embarrassed, you definitely don't know me."

Lu Can was indeed a little embarrassed, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you heard Lao Mao say about me?"

"No, I have known you for a long time," the girl smiled, "I studied in the third middle school next door, and there is only one wall away from you. Not only have I heard of your reputation as a school student in Boyuan, but I have also secretly visited you with my little sister. .”

Zhou Yan's tone was sour: "Do you know who I am?"

"Uh..." the girl wasn't sure, "I have a very good relationship with Xiaofeng... There should be a boy named Zhou Yan, right?"

Old Mao's name was Mao Xiaofeng, and the uncertainty in her tone was so obvious that Zhou Yan's heart was broken.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't remember you, but you have changed a lot, I dare not admit it!"

"It's okay," Lao Mao quickly smoothed things over, "You don't need to apologize, he was joking with you, don't mind."

Zhou Yan: "..."

Why is everyone against him!

Boo!

Talking and laughing, the girl gradually became familiar with them.In order not to disturb Xiao Mao's rest, several people left the ward, and Lao Mao made a formal introduction for both parties.

It turned out that the girl attended the same cram school as Lao Mao when she was in high school, and was admitted to a different department of the same unit after graduation.When old acquaintances met, Lao Mao naturally wanted to take care of her more, and the contact became more and more frequent.

Among the four of them, Qin Yuanyuan spent all her energy on her career, Zhou Yan and Lu Can were unstable, but Lao Mao was more down-to-earth.Lao Mao is not too young now, if there is a girl he likes, the brothers must give full support.

"Wanyi finally came here, let's stop talking in the corridor," Lu Can glanced at the phone, "It's almost noon, go out and find a place to eat."

"No, no, Xiaowei hasn't woken up yet. It's important." Wang Wanyi quickly waved her hand, "Besides, I'm on leave from work, so I don't want to leave for too long."

I deliberately asked for leave to visit, and my mind was clearly revealed.Even if you don't have enough time to eat, you can find a coffee shop for a drink.

Besides, the girl seemed to really want to get in touch with Lao Mao more. Lu Can opened her mouth and wanted to persuade her again, but Lao Mao suddenly interrupted, "The leaders of their department are not very talkative, so don't torture her."

But I've already applied for leave, so what's the difference of ten or twenty minutes?Lu Can looked at Wang Wanyi, and he really caught the fleeting disappointment in the girl's eyes.

"That's right," Wang Wanyi forced a smile, "I'll come again in a few days, don't rush this time, thank you all. Then I'll go first."

Lao Mao said "Yes", "Just now the nurse asked me to pay the fee, Xiaocan, you can help me deliver Wanyi."

......Fine.

Lu Can didn't know what Lao Mao meant, so he just smiled and said, "I know where to get a taxi. Let's go, I'll take you downstairs."

To be honest, Wang Wanyi has a cheerful and easy-going personality, not outstanding but not ugly, she is definitely more than enough to match Lao Mao, Lu Can can't guess the reason why Lao Mao rejected her.

The two walked downstairs side by side. Lu Can was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he planned to find something to talk about.Before she found it, Wang Wanyi spoke first: "Xiao Can, I have a question and I don't know if I should ask you."

Generally speaking, those who say "I don't know if I should ask" just want to ask, but Lu Can has a good impression of Wang Wanyi, so he doesn't care and said, "Ask, it's okay."

"Then let me be honest, are you still in touch with Ji Mingze?"

Ji Mingze?Lu Can was startled.

How did she know about her affair with Ji Mingze?

Lao Mao is not a gossip person, so he should not be so bored as to share his brother's private life with others.

"Wanyi," Lu Can asked suspiciously, "Do you know Ji Mingze?"

"Of course I do." Wang Wanyi was more puzzled than him, "Ji Mingze is my classmate!"

Lu Can was even more confused, "You mean...Ji Mingze is from No. [-] Middle School?"

"Yes, and you are in the same class as us. You don't even know the most powerful student in our school, do you? Besides, weren't you very good when you were in school?"

Who has a good relationship with Ji Mingze, he only met Ji Mingze in October last year.Lu Can stayed where he was, and for a moment, he even doubted what he was dreaming - thinking too much about Ji Mingze, thinking day by day and dreaming at night!

He pinched his arm hard, sweating coldly from the pain.Seeing his performance, Wang Wanyi also noticed something was wrong and stopped in her tracks.

"Lu Can," Wang Wanyi said tentatively, "Don't tell me, you don't know Ji Mingze."

"I really didn't know each other in high school," Lu Can asked, "Why do you think I know you?"

"Because I saw him push your paint-spattered bicycle away for cleaning, and I saw you walking in the alley one after the other—oh, yes, I ran into him once after work. At that time, you were walking on the main road while quarreling with someone on the phone, and the new area was pitch black, and he followed you with his headlights on, about ten meters away from you, as slow as he could drive."

Wang Wanyi stuck out her tongue, "I was on the same bus as you. I saw that you were sad so I didn't call you, and I didn't call him. We didn't know each other well when we were in school."

"I know you may not want to mention this matter...don't be angry, I actually saw a post about your liking for boys on the Boyuan Forum. Although Ji Mingze has a bit of a personality... Weird, but no one can deny that he is excellent, he is even a thousand times stronger than his peers, so if you fall in love, I will definitely support with both hands and feet! An excellent person like him should be like you The handsome guys are together! You must be good!"

A bicycle that disappeared inexplicably and reappeared with a new look.

Walk through the alleys with him every night, and help him scare off the "fellow travelers" who follow him.

The light that followed behind when he quarreled with Duan Yuyang and went berserk.

——It turns out that there are no snail girls in the world, and there are no strangers who do good deeds without leaving their names. Those so-called good lucks are all created for him by one person.

It turns out that deception is not a whim of teasing, but a long-planned affection.

Chapter 52 Gears "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have appeared in my life from a long time ago?"

"You know, there are a lot of nerds in our school. In that kind of atmosphere, Ji Mingze is like a... How can I describe it... an outlier. Like an outlier, he never gets in touch with his classmates or teachers unless necessary , and never participated in group activities, the only group activity that appeared was the graduation summer camp, in short, it was very, very mysterious.”

"But he has good grades and is handsome. At that time, I was more rebellious and obsessed with the kind of maverick. I always observed him when I had nothing to do, and I also secretly watched you with my best friend... Don't get me wrong Ha, at that time I had no other thoughts about you. People like you, in my heart, belong to the moon in the sky that can only be seen from a distance and not played with. On the contrary, Xiaofeng can play with it, hahahaha."

"It's far away, it's far away... Then I had a conflict with my roommate for a while, and applied for a one-month day study. At that time, Ji Mingze and I were the only two day students in the class—it was said that he was a day student because of his mother. I was sick in bed. It was late after high school. In order to have a companion on the small road in front of the school, I deliberately waited for him after self-study next night, and then I left after I saw him go. Then I discovered...he always Squatting in front of the convenience store next to the alley, as if waiting for someone. You should know who you are waiting for."

"As for the bicycles," Wang Wanyi held up the coffee cup with both hands, "that time our class happened to be a physical education class, and other boys were playing basketball in groups. I saw Ji Mingze jumped over the wall and jumped to Boyuan's side, and he also quietly followed In the past, I happened to witness the whole process of him using his stool legs to scare away three punks and push away his bicycle. Of course, I didn’t know whose bicycle belonged to me at first, but I found out it was yours after going to Boyuan Forum. That’s how it is.”

After listening to Wang Wanyi's narration, Lu Can's ears buzzed as if he had been run over by a truck.He suspected that there was something wrong in his mind, otherwise, after four years of school, how could he not even know the name of the top student next door!

Of course, what's even stranger is why did Teacher Ji secretly help him?

"Wanyi, to tell you the truth, what you told me....... It's the first time I've heard of it today," Lu Can propped his forehead with his left hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, as if all his strength had been drained , "Can you tell me what kind of person he was before?"

"No way...you really don't know!" Wang Wanyi was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, and it took a long time to calm down, "Actually, I don't know him well because of the lack of communication. I guess there are not many people in the world. Can understand him. I always feel that ... as I described before, he is not the same creature as us."

"The only thing I can be sure of is that his father was a member of the Air Force and died when he was very young. He applied for the Air Force Academy for the college entrance examination, but failed due to physical reasons. He went to Hangda University."

Lu Can had heard about the school, but he didn't know that Ji Mingze applied for the Air Force to inherit his father's behest.As for why he didn't go to the air force, a thought popped into Lu Can's mind: the scar on his back.

Military academies have extremely high requirements on the physical fitness of their students, especially the Air Force academies, which are affected by the particularity of air combat, and serious injuries are definitely not acceptable.If Ji Mingze was injured before the start of school, he would definitely fail the entrance examination.

Fortunately, Ji Mingze's score in the college entrance examination was high enough that other schools rushed to take it, Lu Can thought, or he might not have a university to study in!

However, these are all guesses by Lu Can, and the specific situation needs to be verified by himself.He drank the American in one gulp, and said sincerely, "Wanyi, thank you for taking the time to chat with me for so long."

"I also want to thank you for speaking for me in the hospital," Wang Wanyi said in a regretful tone, "It's a pity that I have to go back, or I can chat with you for a while."

"Let me know when you have time, and I'll treat you to dinner. Let's talk slowly."

"Ok, it's a deal!"

After sitting in the coffee shop with Lu Can for more than half an hour, it was time for Wang Wanyi to go back to work.Lu Can asked the waiter to pay the bill, booked a car for her, and sent her out.After watching the car drive out of sight and writing down the license plate number, Lu Cancai returned to the inpatient department of the hospital in a daze.

Wang Wanyi's words were like a nuclear bomb that smashed him into a mess, and he still hasn't been able to digest it - or he hasn't found a way to deal with it, and his heart is terribly confused.

Xiao Mao still didn't wake up, the nurse was helping to wipe his body, and Lao Mao and Zhou Yan were waiting at the door.Seeing Lu Can's ghostly look, Zhou Yan was taken aback, "What happened, Xiao Can, I sent my sister off for almost an hour, but when I came back, I felt like I lost my soul. You two really have an affair, right?"

Lu Can didn't want to be poor with him, and said weakly: "She told me something about Ji Mingze."

"Oh yes, I haven't asked you yet," Zhou Yan suddenly remembered, "Didn't you say that the fighting teacher's name is Ji Ming? Why did it suddenly change to Ji Mingze? I almost didn't recognize him in a suit."

Lu Can opened his mouth to explain, but found that he didn't know where to start.He was a mess himself, unable to help others.

"...I'll talk about it later, I'll go sit there for a few minutes first."

"Wait," Lao Mao called to stop Lu Can, "I'll go with you too!"

Zhou Yan groaned, unwilling to join in the fun with them, he squatted down on the spot and opened the game client.Lao Mao and Lu Can walked to the end of the corridor and sat down on a clean bench.

People came and went in the hospital, and the paint on the chairs was wiped off, revealing the mottled iron frame inside.

"What do you want to ask?" Lu Can said bluntly, "Tell me."

That's right, Lao Mao did have something to ask him when he came here, he hesitated and said, "Wanyi... is she okay?"

"It's okay, it looks quite uncomfortable. Now you know how to ask, if you don't want to hurt her heart, why did you forcefully drive her away just now?"

"What can I do if I don't drive away? You have seen my current situation. I want a house but no house, I want a deposit but no deposit, and I don't know where to stay when Xiao Mao is discharged from the hospital." University, there are many places to spend money in the future. Wanyi is a good girl, and I can't drag her down."

When it comes to feelings, everyone has their own considerations. Lu Can can't talk too much about interfering with the other party's thoughts, so he just said: "Since she chooses to come here today, she expresses her willingness to bear the burden with you. You can talk to her frankly and discuss the pros and cons. Make it clear to her. After all, love is a matter between two people. If you refuse because you don't want to delay her, isn't it a bit unfair to her? "

The old man shut up and remained silent.

"Okay, think about it for yourself," Lu Can got up, "I'll go out for a while, Xiao Mao remembers to call me when he wakes up."

"No, you can go home and rest after finishing your work. Xiao Mao is out of danger, don't worry."

Lu Can shook his head, turned and left.

Along that familiar road, Lu Can drove back to Boyuan Middle School again.He parked the car at the same spot as last time, and quickly found a low wall suitable for jumping into.

It is now during the winter vacation, not long after the new year, the cram school has not started, and only one guard and one teacher on duty are left guarding the huge campus.Boyuan is a little looser than the province's key No. [-] middle school, so he plans to sneak into the No. [-] middle school from Boyuan.

After entering Boyuan's front playground smoothly, Lu Can slipped to the back playground against the wall.There was a two-meter-long barbed wire fence on the left side of the rear playground. He shook it, and it turned out a small hole that could allow one person to pass through.

This small hole can be said to be the tradition of Boyuan Middle School. Ten years ago, Zhou Yan drilled through here to find the school girl of No. [-] Middle School. Ten years later, the small hole still exists.But it should not be the previous one—Boyuan often repairs the iron grid, and the next day after the repair, there will always be "people of justice" who will pry it open to help comrades "secretly hide their positions".

After all, bad students are always full of "yearning" for good students, right?

With Lu Can's current skeleton, it was a bit difficult to drill the hole. He cautiously poked half of his body in, and a piece of the down jacket was scratched.

After finally going through it all, Lu Can looked at the hole in his arm where the goose feathers protruded, and thought to himself: He never drilled holes to find a partner when he was in school, but now he has made up for it after eight years of graduation. Is it a good reincarnation?

Thinking of these messes, Lu Can couldn't help but laugh.He tried his best to keep the corners of his mouth shut, carefully observed the surrounding situation, and quickly ran into the teaching building of No. [-] Middle School while the security guards were patrolling on the other side.

He ran to the middle of the corridor in one breath - he stopped at a safer place.Standing in a completely unfamiliar environment, a thought popped into Lu Can's mind.

——Here is where Ji Mingze stayed for four years.

Because there were no students, the entire teaching building was so quiet that an echo could be heard.Lu Can couldn't bear to be disturbed, and walked very lightly and slowly.Slowly caressing the doors of Class [-] and Class [-], Class [-] and Class [-], and the utility room... I couldn't help but guess which one was Ji Mingze's former classroom, and which door was lucky enough to be touched by Ji Mingze Pass.

Twelve years have passed since the first year of high school, and another boy in a blue and white striped school uniform seemed to appear in front of Lu Can's eyes, walking slowly through the corridor like him.

Through 12 years of time, through dust, torrents and gears that never reverse, hold his hand gently and gently.

The second and third floors of the teaching building are the second and third floors of the teaching building, and the fourth and fifth floors are the third and third departments. In order to protect the safety of students' property, all classroom doors are locked. Lu Can can only know the situation inside through the window.

The classrooms in No. [-] Middle School are no different from those in Boyuan, except that the books on the desks are several times higher than theirs.Looking at the pile of exercise books and test papers that were half the height of a person, Lu Can's scalp was numb. He was very glad that he missed the entrance to the third middle school by [-] points, otherwise he would definitely die here!

When he walked to the lobby on the fifth floor and saw the huge "Wall of Honor" in red on the opposite wall, Lu Can immediately stopped in place.

Following the guidance of "Class of 2005" and "Class of 2006", Lu Can quickly found Ji Mingze's graduation class, and immediately saw Ji Mingze's photo hanging in the center.

In the photo, he looks a little young, his facial features are not much different from the present, but his shoulders are thin and his face is abnormally pale.

Being able to go to the school's honor wall, everyone is smiling, but his eyes are indifferent, as if it has nothing to do with him.He didn't care, and he didn't even think about how his future juniors would look up to him.

Lu Can likes Ji Mingze's strong appearance now, but strangely, Lu Can naturally accepts Ji Mingze's thin appearance before.

Whether it was him more than ten years ago or the him now, as long as it is him, no matter how he changes, Lu Can likes him very much.

Lu Can held his breath, walked to the wall of honor devoutly, stared at the wall for a few minutes, took out his mobile phone, and called Ji Mingze.

"Mr. Ji, do you know where I am now?"

"Hospital? Restaurant?" The voice over there was lazy, probably just woke up from a nap, "Could it be an orphanage?"

"I'm in No. [-] Middle School, in front of the honor wall in the lobby on the fifth floor."

There was an obvious froze for a moment, "...Oh? Why did you suddenly remember to go to No. [-] Middle School?"

"If I don't come, how long are you going to hide from me?"

Lu Can looked at the young boy in the photo, and said to him eight years later, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have appeared in my life since a long time ago?"

Chapter 53 Confession "Ahem, that... Ji Mingze from No. [-] Middle School, would you like to have lunch with Lu Can from Boyuan?"

why?

Ji Mingze leaned on the sofa in the office, squinting his eyes and looking out the window.The roads at the turn of winter and spring are always dirty, reminding him of the winter in his first year of high school.

"Student Ji, are you asleep?" A sweet female voice sounded from above her head.

Ji Mingze pretended not to hear, lying on the table and continuing to sleep.

"Classmate Ji, the old class asked me to give this to you." The female voice persevered.

Since the head teacher was mentioned, Ji Mingze couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore, and lazily propped up his upper body with his hands.The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of small leather boots with snow on the edges, which has already stained the cement floor on the right side of the desk.

When he raised his head, he saw the appearance of this female classmate clearly - oval face, big eyes, high ponytail, white sweater and jeans, she was the kind of petite and cute girl that high school boys like most.

Ji Mingze searched for names in his mind for a long time, but he couldn't find anyone who could match her number. He only remembered that she was the school committee member, "What?"

The girl pushed the bulging envelope in front of Ji Mingze, and whispered: "It's the money donated to you by the classmates."

As she spoke, the girl's cheeks gradually turned red.In fact, this donation was organized by her in private, under the banner of Ban Ren, because she was afraid that Ji Mingze would not accept it.

As for the reason for organizing the donation... The little girl in her teenage years is willing to spend so much time communicating with her classmates one by one, beating around the bush to find a way that doesn't hurt Ji Mingze's self-esteem.

It is nothing more than the word "like".

And half of the envelope was the pocket money she had saved for half a year. She lowered her head shyly, "I hope this money can help you, even a little bit."

Ji Mingze didn't even look at it, and said directly, "I don't want it."

The girl's complexion changed immediately, "You, why don't you? The students want to help you very much! And, and this donation is only made in our class, other students don't know about it, so don't worry."

After dawdling for so long, Ji Mingze was getting a little impatient.At that time, he was not good at forcing himself to communicate with others, "Please help me return it to the old class, I don't need it."

After speaking, he got up, brushed the girl's shoulder, and went to the bathroom.

The girl who was left alone stayed where she was, with a heavy heart in her hand and an embarrassing expression on her face.

On the way to her own position, the girl kept thinking about what she did wrong.The envelope she chose was an unmistakable ordinary kraft paper envelope, and the time was the lunch break when the class had the least number of people.The knitted sweater is neatly arranged, and even the angle of the ponytail is carefully adjusted to the most delicate look.

It should be fine...

Does Ji Mingze know how difficult it is to save money for half a year, why not?

The more she thought about it, the more unwilling the girl became, and angrily returned to the place just now.

So when Ji Mingze finished his meal and went back to the classroom, he saw the envelope lying on his desk intact.

At this time, the teacher had already started to explain, and Ji Mingze ignored the gaze of the Science Committee, took out the test papers and textbooks, and listened to the class.

After a class was over, he picked up the envelope and passed the teachers and classmates who were answering questions on the podium.

— Throw it straight into the trash can!

The girl has been paying attention to Ji Mingze's movements since the afternoon. She was startled when she saw his movements, and then tears welled up in her eyes.

The students next to him also reacted at this time, and several boys quickly surrounded Ji Mingze in the center.

"Hey, what do you mean?"

"Do you know how much effort she put into raising so much money for you? Don't be so fucking ignorant!"

"If it's not for her face, who do you think would want to deal with a freak like you?"

"Now, immediately, immediately, bring me back the envelope!"

When he saw the table belly before class, Ji Mingze knew that the donation was organized by the school committee, because their class teacher likes to solve problems through conversation, and can't do things like stuffing things into the desk quietly.

Under the siege of chatter, his expression still looked like "it has nothing to do with me", "I said, I don't need it."

After speaking, he stretched out his hand to push away the crowd without even giving the school committee a look.

"Woooooooooooo..." The school committee cried even more sadly.

The next afternoon, the boys were all comforting the school committee, stabbing Ji Mingze with words from time to time.Ji Mingze was born with a filter system, his left ear went in and his right ear went out, so he couldn't hear what unimportant people said.

Later, I don't know who poked it out.In No. [-] Middle School, the school committee members were famous for being pretty and cute and Ji Mingze for being weird. For a while, almost everywhere on campus were discussing how much Ji Mingze was going too far.

On this day's lunch break, Ji Mingze skipped half of class, slipped out of school 10 minutes early, and prepared to go to the stationery store where he had been working part-time to pay part-time wages.

As soon as I walked to the gate of Boyuan, I saw two boys in Boyuan's school uniform walking and chatting.The one on the left is shorter, slightly fatter, and has a thicker voice.The one on the right is a little taller, very thin but not too thin, just like a teenager. He is holding a portion of oden in his left hand, and his exposed wrist is dazzlingly white.

The short boy was also eating octopus balls, and his voice was vague: "Xiao Can, have you heard that the top student in the third middle school—that is, the one who scored the second best grade in every monthly exam? The donation is thrown away!"

The tall boy asked doubtfully, "Donation?"

"Yes, donate money. Xueba's family's conditions are quite poor. His father passed away when he was very young, and his mother has been sick in bed. The mother and wife have no source of income. They rely on the pension left by his father for medical treatment and medicine. Now It seems that the money for going to school is earned by himself from part-time jobs, it’s miserable anyway.”

As he said that, the short boy clicked his lips, "Banhua helped him out of good intentions. It is said that in order to protect his self-esteem, he even borrowed the name of the head teacher. Who knew that he was so heartless, the first time he refused firmly, and the second time he even took the The money went straight to the trash can!"

"Throwing the trash can is a bit too much, but I didn't do anything wrong. Why do you continue to give it after people have said not to do it? Do you have to force him to accept it? It's not to help classmates, it's to satisfy my own selfishness."

The short boy choked: "But Banhua put a lot of thought into raising money for him..."

"Before Banhua raised money, did he ask him if he needed it? Like you said just now, he can work part-time to earn tuition fees, so he can naturally find ways to get living expenses."

The tall boy picked out the last sweet and spicy oden in the oden, and licked off two balls in one bite, and a big piece of his cheek was bulged out. , that should indeed be scolded. If he has the ability to handle his own life from beginning to end, why bother to imagine him as a poor little boy and force 'good intentions' on him?"

"This has nothing to do with self-esteem. Jack the Phantom Thief said that there are many ways to overcome difficulties. The worst way is to stand still and ask for help from others. Xueba really just doesn't need it. Don't always think of yourself as the starting point for others. ,Fine?"

What he said was naive and secondary school, the short boy wanted to refute, but after much deliberation, he couldn't find a reason to refute, so he scratched his head anxiously.

Ji Mingze was stunned.The mother who should have been closest to him kept hurting him, which made it difficult for him to develop a relationship other than "strangers" with his own kind since he was a child.In his world, the world is a vast expanse of whiteness, and he is the only one who stands alone. Being misunderstood and blamed seems to have become his destiny.

He had never met anyone who really understood him.

Ji Mingze bowed his head and took a few steps quickly, surpassing those two boys.At this moment, the tall boy finished his last sip of Kanto soup, and while muttering that the spicy soup is not spicy enough today, he turned to this side——

In the next second, Ji Mingze saw a face that was brighter than Chunguang.

Afterwards, Ji Mingze began to pay attention to Lu Can subconsciously. He found that Lu Can liked to eat flat roasted sweet potatoes, not round ones; when buying five pens, he usually picked four blue and black pens, and the last one was reluctant to buy black; He doesn't open an umbrella, and deliberately walks away in the water; he can communicate with wild cats in cat language, just "meow" twice, and all the little milk cats in the alley will rush towards him...

He also talked to those cats to himself, most of them were trivial things.For example, which football star's penalty kick is so good that it explodes, for example, the ivy behind the school has grown to be as tall as a person, for example, the lettuce is very fresh today in the Malatang restaurant, for example, this monthly Chinese exam is 85, which is much better than failing last time... ...

In his rambling voice, Ji Mingze discovered for the first time that not everyone's world is white, and it turns out that those trivial things can be very cute.

He wanted to get closer to Lu Can more and more. It seemed that if he got close, his world would be colored a little bit, and it would no longer be so monotonous.

Of course, at that time, he didn't understand what "attention" and "approach" meant.

It wasn't until I blocked that stone slab for Lu Can that I realized that it was called liking.

......

"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have appeared in my life since a long time ago?"

Ji Mingze looked away from the window, sat up straight, and asked, "Who told you that?"

"Your classmate," Lu Can's voice choked up, "Bicycles, alleys, squatting at the door of the convenience store every day waiting for me...I know all of these, don't try to deny it."

Hearing this, Ji Mingze returned to his previous reclining posture - as long as he didn't know what happened in the summer vacation of the year he graduated, he could handle it.

Seeing that Ji Mingze was silent, Lu Can decided to give up asking questions temporarily, because "now" is always more important than "past".And they still have a lot of time, he believes that he will be able to pry open Ji Mingze's locked mouth sooner or later.

"Are you in the company?" Lu Can turned
