The sun is warm and the classroom is full of people. They have just entered high school, and everyone is so excited that they are looking for familiar faces among new classmates, or making new friends. Everyone hopes to open a new chapter in high school , to become a newer and better self.

Boys will also secretly look at girls, and girls will also focus on boys.

The most eye-catching thing is wearing an extremely ugly school uniform, but it can turn this ugly into a good-looking boy.

He has a height of 1.7m[-], and it is estimated that he will grow a few centimeters in the next two years. Although he is tall, he will not make people feel like a bamboo pole. On the contrary, his body proportions are very good, and his facial features are exquisite, as if from a girl manga The male protagonist who walked out had fair and delicate skin. Among the boys with acne and bumps on his face, he was like a god-level existence.

And he has a good temper, he almost never refuses anyone who comes to him, he can follow the other person's topic when anyone asks him to talk, and he will never stand in the cold or embarrass others.

Even boys can't afford to be jealous of him. He is as gentle and polite to boys as he is to girls. He won't treat each other differently just because of a good-looking girl. It's like a central air conditioner, slowly warming The wind is given to all.

Contrary to him is another boy, he looks more mature than his peers, he does not refer to his face, but his temperament, he sits in his seat, neither talking to people nor paying attention to other people's conversation.

Girls thought he was cool. If it was in the popular novels at that time, then this cruel boy would be the male protagonist, and the other gentle one would be the second male lead.

Soon, they knew that the friendly, gentle and polite new classmate was named Bai Yi.

And the boy who is unkind, indifferent and rejects people thousands of miles away is called Zhang Li.

In less than a month, they discovered that Bai Yi's family was in a good family. He always wore decent and expensive clothes, and he always helped the students in the class who had no money, and took good care of their self-esteem. Everyone thinks that Bai Yi is generous and gentle, helping others without demanding anything in return.

But Zhang Li was extremely poor. When he went to the cafeteria, he only bought rice for [-] cents, mixed with pickles, and drank the free seaweed egg drop soup in the cafeteria.

Of course, the students prefer Bai Yi who is decent and willing to help others, rather than Zhang Li who is indifferent and poor.

Bai Yi also noticed Zhang Li. He often "met" Zhang Li in the cafeteria. He would beat more when ordering vegetables, and then sat next to Zhang Li and said in a worried tone: "I have been ordering a little too much. Can you help me eat some? I don't want to waste it."

However, Zhang Li completely ignored him, as if he was talking to the air.

After several attempts, Bai Yi gave up.

He felt that Zhang Li was like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard.

So for more than a year after that, even though the two were still in the same class after the division, Bai Yi never dealt with him again.

Boyi's contribution is not free. What he needs to get is not tangible things, but intangible benefits. Humans are social animals, and they need to establish their status in the group in order to get more benefits.

And Zhang Li is obviously not a member of the group, he is insignificant and irrelevant, and Bai Yi is too lazy to bother.

Until the class teacher asked Bai Yi to go home with him.

The head teacher believed in Bai Yi's popularity and charm, and thought that Bai Yi and Zhang Li would at least be closer than other students after being classmates for so long.

When Bai Yi and the class teacher arrived at Zhang Li's home together, both of them were stunned.

They didn't expect that there was such a place in this city. It looked like a slum in the last century. There were two rows of bungalows that hadn't been demolished. The street in the middle was so narrow that three people couldn't even pass by. The people on both sides had weather-beaten faces and carried poles on their shoulders. They had probably just returned from the construction site.

The head teacher found Zhang Li's "home" according to the school's questionnaire.

The door of the house is a crumbling old-fashioned wooden door, without a door handle, which can only be opened and closed by a key.

They knocked on the door and waited for more than ten seconds before they heard footsteps inside.

It was the footsteps of the old man, very slow and procrastinated. After opening the door, the old man was obviously very surprised by the appearance of these two strangers. She had gray hair, wrinkles on her face, and a stooped figure, and asked : "Did you knock on the wrong door?"

She wasn't worried that these two were bad guys, she didn't look at each other's clothes, she just looked at how poor their family was, and she knew that there was nothing that could attract thieves. Could it be that thieves would come to steal the family's back basket, or an old woman like her?

"Hello, are you the parent of student Zhang Li?" the class teacher said with a smile on his face, "I am his class teacher, my name is Yang."

The old man's attitude immediately became respectful. In the eyes of these uneducated and uneducated people, the word "teacher" is too important, and they think that teachers are very respectable people.

She quickly said: "Teacher, come in and sit down. I'll get you a glass of water. There's nothing else at home, only cool water. Don't be disgusted."

Just when the head teacher was about to refuse, Bai Yi stepped forward and said: "That's great, we didn't drink water all the way, and cold water is the best way to quench our thirst."

The old man said excitedly: "Yes, cold water is the most thirst-quenching, you sit down."

The head teacher didn't say no need, she figured it out, for a caring parent, being able to do something for the child's teacher would make them feel more at ease. Bai Yi smiled at the head teacher, looking very well-behaved.

The head teacher calmed down, feeling that after being a teacher for so many years, he finally got an excellent student like Bai Yi, who possessed all kinds of virtues and good grades, which made her face very good.

Zhang Li hadn't come back at this time, the old man introduced himself as Zhang Li's grandma.

The water cup she handed to the head teacher and Bai Yi was an old-fashioned enamel cup with a slogan promoting the only child printed on it, and it could be seen that it had been used for many years.

There is only one bedroom and one living room in this house. There is no more furniture except a table and two benches. The living room is full of clutter. Although it is clean, it still makes people feel messy.

The homeroom teacher couldn't say what she had written in the original draft—she came to urge Zhang Li's parents to pay Zhang Li's tuition and miscellaneous fees.

This amount of money is not much, but the class teacher faced such a family environment, and the old lady with a friendly face opposite, after opening his mouth, he couldn't say a word.

"Because Mr. Zhang has performed very well recently, the school wants to waive his tuition fees." Bai Yi interrupted again, and he said to the old lady, "Student Zhang has excellent grades and is very popular in school."

The old lady couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear, and her teeth burst into laughter. She stretched out her hand and patted her leg, beaming with joy: "I knew that Li Wazi would have a bright future! His grandfather and I are both illiterate, so I'm afraid that he will be with us." It seems that if you are illiterate all your life, only reading can change your destiny!"

The homeroom teacher also reacted. She knew the situation. Zhang Li’s family would definitely not be able to afford the more than 1000 yuan. The two old people lived in this kind of place, and they knew that there was no pension when they thought about it. She was still watching in the corner of the living room. There are a lot of empty bottles, and it is estimated that they are selling these things to earn a little living expenses.

Zhang Li's grades are in the top ten in his class, but he is not good enough to receive a scholarship. His family is not poor and cannot receive subsidies.

——As for why it is not a poor household, the head teacher did not think of the reason.

The old lady talked to the class teacher respectfully. In her mouth, although Zhang Li was not very talkative, he was a good boy. He knew how to help the family since he was a child. He earned his living expenses and tuition fees by himself. He distributed leaflets on weekends. During winter and summer vacations, I went to work as a waiter in other people's stores.

There was a lot of pride in her tone, she believed that Zhang Li would have a great future and become a great person.

When Zhang Li arrived home, what he saw was his grandma and the class teacher sitting on the bench talking, while Bai Yi was standing next to the class teacher. Bai Yi was like a luminous body, and this poor and messy home seemed to have changed.

"Hey! Baby Li is back!" The old lady called Zhang Li by his nickname, and she said happily, "Your teacher is here! He said you have good grades, so you don't have to pay tuition fees!"

Now that you have lied, you must carry it through to the end. The head teacher turned to Zhang Li and said: "The school has changed the system, and your grades can already be exempted from tuition and miscellaneous fees. I came this time to inform you, and you should be careful in the future." Study and try to get into a good university.”

Zhang Li didn't say anything, he didn't believe he would have such good luck, but the news was really good.

The shop where he worked part-time before was closed down because of substandard sanitation, and other shops had experienced hands. Even if Zhang Li lowered his salary to [-] a month, no one wanted him.

He was so busy that he heard the news suddenly, and he felt relaxed for a long time.

He hasn't felt this feeling for a long time.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Bai Yi who was smiling at him.

He saw many malicious smiles, and easily saw that there was no mockery or contempt in Bai Yi's smile.

Bai Yi just smiled at him so innocently, as if he was also happy that he got the good news.

At that moment, Zhang Li heard a violent heartbeat.

Until Bai Yi left with the head teacher, his heartbeat still maintained an abnormal frequency.

He reached out and touched his face, the scalding heat seemed to scald his own palm.

It was painful to him.

Since it is doomed not to get it, why should there be such a heartbeat.

Every time the reality gave him a little hope, it would bring him even greater despair.

As always, never changed.

He will never be able to get this person who makes his heart beat.

That's what Zhang Li thought when he was standing in the mud, he didn't have any hope.

Love is a luxury, he does not deserve it.
