Cold violence

But Zhou Yu has always been a person with strong self-regulation ability, which is an ability he cultivated alone for many years.

He doesn't like to tell others about many things, but he just keeps them in his heart, and then through self-reflection and analysis of the incident, he can digest this matter, but the length of digestion time is different.

In the past, he always solved problems alone, and he was used to hiding away from the side and not communicating with others when something happened.He felt that it was good for him not to affect other people like this, at least it was good for everyone, but it was different now.

Because he had He Chu by his side.

The person who claimed that he liked him, he even wanted to explore his deepest thoughts in Happy Valley that day, but Zhou Yu didn't want to.

In fact, he can be said to be a very rigid person, and he is unwilling to break his original habits.

In the past, no one was willing to listen to what he said, but now there are people who are willing to listen to what he himself does not want to say.

Subconsciously, he is a very entangled person. On the one hand, he feels that it is really uncomfortable to be alone, and on the other hand, he cannot establish the most basic trust in the people around him.

"But it's okay. I'll wait until the day you're willing to tell me."

He Chu was never in a hurry, it was still early, and he would always be in time.

Zhou Yu seemed to have habitually forgotten the things he didn't want to remember, even on that day, after that brief disappointment, he returned to his usual look of being interested in everything.

He knew that this time was actually different from before. He used to spend it in self-reflection, but this time it was because of He Chu.

There was a very long line for Speed ​​that day, they got there early and only waited 45 minutes.When it was about to start, Zhou Yu was a little nervous. He could feel the track trembling slightly. He held on to the guardrail, but he still couldn't help being nervous.

——Until He Chu grabbed his hand.

That hand seemed to have fantastic magic power, soothing his heart gently and powerfully.

"Don't be afraid, I'm holding you." He heard He Chu smiling softly beside him, and the next second the huge acceleration pressed him tightly on the seat.

He opened his eyes in the wind whistling beside his ears, surrounded by the exclamation of tourists, only He Chu laughed and said, "Zhou Yu! Look aside!"

Zhou Yuyiyan looked out of the track, and saw the vast scenery in the distance, and the smallness of all living beings.

"Do you think—the world is so nice—" He Chu's voice seemed to be stretched by the wind, piercing Zhou Yu's eardrums and entering his mind.

Yes, the world is so big and so good.He Chu's hand was still tightly holding his own, and his palm was pressed against the back of his hand, so that he didn't even feel the wind.

It feels good to have someone by my side...

So he also smiled, and shouted forward: "There is—"

His voice was quickly overwhelmed by shouts, but he could feel He Chu holding his hand tightly again.In this high altitude, in a helpless place, a person is actually very lonely, so it seems that only by holding a person's hand tightly can one feel one's own existence.

They also arranged a lot of projects that day. This was Zhou Yu's most presumptuous day, and it was also the only day when he had no distractions and only cared about being happy.That day he went home and wrote a short diary, feeling more relaxed than ever.

"Today I was lucky enough to go to an amusement park. In the past, I wanted to go so much, but when I actually went, I found that I had lost my previous thoughts.

"I had a good day today. I also saw my mother. I haven't seen her for a long time. She is really doing well, and that's pretty good. At least I didn't delay her anymore.

"Very good. I seem to be a little short of words when I write here, um... and He Chu.

"He's really nice, thank you."

He remembered what He Chu said, "Do you think the world is really good", so he picked up a pen and added a sentence at the bottom: "Well, the world is also very good."

The [-]th holiday of the first year of high school was full of seven days. He Chu had been thinking about how to spend Zhou Yu’s [-]th meeting and with whom in the first five days. After that day, He Chu knew the answer—he lived it alone.

He held Zhou Yu for so long in Happy Valley that day, and he understood that Zhou Yu was just unhappy and wanted to rely on a certain person, the same as He Chu before.In fact, the relationship between the two of them was far from that good, and He Chu no longer had any reason to find Zhou Yu.

On the first day of school, He Chu still habitually helped Zhou Yu bring breakfast, and Zhou Yu also tacitly gave him a box of milk as before.

When the two met, it was actually the same as before, but He Chu just felt that something had changed between the two.

Maybe it was because Zhou Yu looked at him with a little invisible tenderness, or maybe it was because he took the initiative to say hello to him.

"morning."

During the morning self-study, Lao Huang came in with a thin stack of papers and asked He Chu to go to the podium to explain something to him.Zhou Yu supported his head, and glanced at He Chu lightly. He looked much better than when the school started. He no longer deliberately pretended to be very obedient, and the laziness and surlyness that he had hidden on him gradually revealed , making him more alive.

This kind of He Chu is more real.

In fact, Zhou Yu didn't like the way he deliberately stepped forward to talk and pretended to study hard.

When He Chu came to the podium to talk, Zhou Yu was sitting on the seat doing the paper that Yu Jingzhou gave him, typing the draft casually.

He never reads early, and usually He Chu comes over to waste time with him. Sometimes he is in a bad mood and thinks this behavior of reading the text aloud is very stupid.

"Knowledge does not need to be read aloud to memorize." He remembered that he once said to Fang Xian.

Young people's arrogance is sometimes reflected in small things.

When Fang Xian turned around to whisper to him, he happened to have worked out a big math problem, and while he wrote down his answer at the back of the problem, he heard Fang Xian's slightly nervous voice: "Brother Yu, I'm afraid that Lao Huang will be studying for grades. You see, the monitor hasn't come down for so long."

"Ah..." Zhou Yu put down his pen, looked at He Chu's face, he didn't look disappointed, so he said, "He should have done well in the exam."

Fang Xian glanced at He Chu secretly, and sighed: "This guy is the class monitor, I'm sorry for the teacher if he doesn't do well in the exam. But what are you doing? Writing the paper so early?" Fang Xian turned the paper in Zhou Yu's hand , After seeing the title clearly, I almost lost control of the volume: "Damn it! You wrote a paper for the second year of high school?!"

Zhou Yu blinked, noncommittal.

"I think the test papers issued by the school itself are a bit messy. I heard that the sophomore ones are from the district, so they can be used for practice."

Fang Xian was obviously shocked by this way of thinking, the corners of his mouth twitched: "You...have you learned it all?"

"Almost. Preliminary."

"So... how did you do in the monthly exam?" Fang Xian felt that he couldn't look directly at Zhou Yu. The top student's brain might have developed earlier than his, and his thinking seemed to be different.

"Well... just play normally."

"Okay, I understand. I will work hard to match you in the future."

"No, I just took it to write and write, it doesn't necessarily mean that I have learned well." Zhou Yu said with a smile, "Don't think too much, it really is a normal performance."

Fang Xian nodded, and turned around silently. He no longer wanted to know what kind of "normal" method Zhou Yu's "normal performance" was.

After a while, He Chu also came down. Zhou Yu looked up at him, and found that He Chu was staring at his desktop expressionlessly, and asked him, "Didn't you do well in the exam?" There was something wrong with the paper for the second year of high school, and it seemed that the influence in the class was not good, so after Fang Xian turned around, he took the paper away.

"You should be third in the class. I can't say it's good or bad, but you..." After He Chu finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yu with some embarrassment.

Zhou Yu looked at his complicated eyes and asked, "First?"

He Chu nodded, frowning, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "First in grade, but...but it's much higher than No.2, so...so..." He hesitated, as if those words were hard to say. look.

"So you suspect that I cheated, right?" Zhou Yu continued his words casually.

He Chu was a little shocked. He didn't expect Zhou Yu to say such words directly. It sounded like he didn't care. Zhou Yu sat next to him during the exam. He knew that Zhou Yu definitely didn't cheat, but Zhou Yu's grades She is so outstanding that she is the only one in school.

Even He Chu himself was shocked by this number.

Not to mention that Zhou Yu's own grades are ranked first in the school, even if No. [-] Middle School ranks among the top three in the entire city, this time, even if No. [-] Middle School did the papers by itself, the papers are not difficult, but Zhou Yu The results she encountered...too ostentatious.

Anyone will have a trace of jealousy while being envious.

Seeing He Chu's embarrassed expression, Zhou Yu explained: "This is a very normal thought, just like when I was in junior high school, children from rich and noble families rarely take the road of learning, so in their opinion, are their grades worthwhile? None, and the teacher doesn't care, but if suddenly there is a student who does well in the exam, then the teacher and classmates will suspect this person with good grades. This kind of psychology in high school will only become more and more common, as long as I go forward All the exams can be kept in this state, no one will say anything about me, you don't need to worry about me."

After speaking, he smiled helplessly, this kind of thing was just a trivial matter in his eyes, and he had already experienced it too many times.

It was a bit embarrassing for He Chu, so she came here to tell him.

"But... don't you have any injustice in your heart? Others look at you like that..."

If it was He Chu himself, maybe he would be very concerned about other people's eyes, so he would change his way of taking the exam and let himself blend into this environment as much as possible.

"It's not necessary. Because even if they are jealous, they won't say it in front of me, because they don't have the ability." Then he said with a smile: "Because this kind of thing is discussed by everyone, and even excluded , to outsiders, it looks like it’s the best in the world, and it’s the best in the world, but why should I wrong myself to live with the 'chicken'?"

After He Chu heard it, he felt touched by something.

Zhou Yu was considered very young in their class, and he had noticed it when he helped the teacher register classmates' information, but this young body lived with a soul that was more mature than all of them, and he saw it better than all of them. Everyone is thorough.

Maybe it's not that he doesn't care about certain things in many cases, but that he has experienced it too many times and has already formed a habit.

"You are right. But...in fact, Lao Huang didn't tell me anything about you. He just asked me to study hard with you so as not to hold you back. I just pretended." The heaviness on He Chu's face was swept away. , put on a slightly sly smile, like a little mouse who stole cheese but was not caught by a cat.

"How is it, exciting?"

Zhou Yu was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Lao Huang had already known that his grades were excellent, and had talked to him about his grades before, so why would he suspect him of cheating just because of a monthly exam?

He was tricked by He Chu and obediently got in.He lowered his head and took out the paper, and threw two words to He Chu: "Childish."

"Cut. I'm naive. Didn't you explain it to me seriously? You're old-fashioned." He Chu moved to Zhou Yu's arm and asked curiously, "Hey, the sophomore paper? Yu Jingzhou gave it to you. ?”

"Well. I'll take it here to practice." Zhou Yu stopped writing, not planning to seriously write questions when He Chu was making jokes. He Chu always likes to find various topics with him to interrupt his train of thought, although in this case He can also write it down, but the efficiency is too low, it is better not to waste time.

But in fact... Another part of the reason is that when He Chu is by his side, he tends to involuntarily get distracted, and every time he has an urge to sneak over to see what he is doing, even when he knows He Chu At first while sleeping.

"Show me too? Anyway, I'm free."

"Have you studied these courses?" Zhou Yuqi asked. Before that, He Chu was still surprised by the things he previewed. He still thought that He Chu was the kind of person who relied on his brains to be smart but didn't take the initiative to learn.

"I don't learn as much as you...but bro, can you be considered a top student anyway? If it weren't for you, I would be the third grader this time. You really don't know that you are the second highest grader in our grade No matter how many points you score, the teacher in the class next door will turn green..."

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Zhou Yu's ear and whispered, "To tell you the truth, when my dad sent me in, he told me that Lao Huang only came to the rocket class this year, so I know you Did you give him more face this time?"

"Well... I'll be more restrained in the next exam." Zhou Yu felt that what He Chu said was quite reasonable. They were all freshmen in high school, and there was no reason for anyone to be better than the other. If it really continued like this, then it would be terrible There is really a suspicion of cheating.

During the exam, I only thought about doing the questions seriously, but I really never thought that I used to demand myself at the level of the third year of high school. The standard new high school students will definitely not be able to reach such a level.

"I said, why is your focus wrong? Lao Huang was so happy that he didn't know what to say this time. My dad said that the last key class he taught had a lot of people who passed the exam, so the school only promoted him. , It is estimated that there is no such student as you among the students he teaches, and he is afraid that he will offer you up as a treasure in the future, why did you not react at all?"

Zhou Yu hates it when people tell him this, that his grades give him pride and glory. He said "Oh" lightly, and said, "I didn't study hard for other people."

But at this time, He Chu didn't think about the meaning of Zhou Yu's words. He just nodded and agreed with Zhou Yu's statement. He took the first test paper from Zhou Yu's hand, glanced at it, and found that Zhou Yu only did the last six of the multiple-choice questions, only the last two of the fill-in-the-blank questions, and the major questions on the first test paper were left untouched.

"Why didn't you write the previous one?"

"Those questions are very basic, and it doesn't make sense to write them. After you finish writing, you can check the answers with me. You can discuss the differences together."

"Okay, when I finish writing, let's compare the accuracy."
