Tolerate

Winter snow once again covered the whole city with silver, then melted, evaporated, and fell in the form of continuous spring rain.

So again and again.

Only the shrubs in Ling Suzhen's greenhouse remain green forever.Therefore, in the bad sandstorm weather, Lu Qingming likes to take a shovel to loosen the soil and water in the greenhouse.Being in the bushes, it seems that the whole person is temporarily exiled to a no-man's land, and all the pressure is relieved, and the heart is indescribably relaxed.

There are still two short months before the date called "College Entrance Examination".

This was the first time that on Lu Qingming's birthday, the weather was clear and there was no rain.

It may be because it is located in the south of Lingnan, and the weather is different from that in the north.Lu Qingming and Chi Muyun walked on the steps one behind the other.Unlike the north where the spring is still cold, short sleeves can already be worn here.

Lu Qingming wore an off-white T-shirt, sky blue jeans, and a pair of long and flexible legs, so he could go anywhere effortlessly.

Although Chi Muyun also has the habit of exercising, his physical strength is always inferior to Lu Qingming who can compete with sports students on the same stage, and he was left behind by Lu Qingming after a while.

"Yun, you're going to lose!" Lu Qingming jumped up to the top of the steps, before he could catch his breath, he turned around and shouted at Chi Muyun.

Chi Muyun really didn't have the energy to talk to her. When she reached the last step, her feet were so weak that she couldn't walk at all. Seeing Lu Qingming smiling on the steps, she suddenly felt aggrieved from nowhere. , simply stopped and did not go.

Seeing that she stopped there without speaking or moving, Lu Qingming ran down like a gust of wind, and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Is there any discomfort? Ah?"

The grievance in Chi Muyun's heart calmed down a little.But the more Lu Qingming cared about her, the more she felt unable to walk.

"I can't walk anymore." Chi Muyun wiped the sweat from his forehead, and simply sat down on the steps.

Her tied hair is a bit messy, and there are still a few strands on her forehead that are already wet with sweat. Coupled with her slightly pursed mouth because she is too tired, she looks really... so cute.

Lu Qingming rarely saw her like this.

It's really a side of her that she can't put it down.She knelt down and looked at Chi Muyun with a half-smile, and suddenly felt that Chi Muyun had become a child, and she had become an adult, responsible for the crying child.

She took out the mineral water in her backpack and handed it to Chi Muyun, asking her to take a sip and take a breath.

"Yun, come up." She walked down a step and squatted down with her back to Chi Muyun.

Chi Muyun screwed on the cap of the mineral water, looked up and saw Lu Qingming's half-squatting back, was stunned for a moment, then stood up and waved his hands, "No, I'll go up by myself."

Who knew that Lu Qingming was so stubborn that he stood in front of her and wanted to carry her on his back.

"It's too dangerous here, no way." Chi Muyun rested, and turned into the elder Lu Qingming was familiar with again.

Lu Qingming couldn't help but move up to her and let her hug his neck from behind.

Chi Muyun hugged her neck helplessly, "Be careful."

If it really fell, the many steps below are not a joke.

Lu Qingming said with a smile, "Yun, don't worry." She stretched out her hands from behind, supported Chi Muyun's thigh, and carried Chi Muyun on her back steadily.

The moment his body was in the air, Chi Muyun hugged the girl's slender neck tightly.She closed her eyes and couldn't help but let out a small scream.

She heard Lu Qingming laughing in her ear, and started walking up.Lu Qingming's steps are very steady, step by step slowly up.

At first Chi Muyun was still very nervous, until her mind went blank. Slowly, she opened her eyes and looked at Lu Qingming's profile.

The girl lowered her eyelashes and took every step steadily. The rhythmic rise and fall of her chest made Chi Muyun feel safe.

She quietly lay on the girl's back, watching a bead of sweat slowly slide down from the girl's wheat-colored skin.

It seems that this is much more beautiful than the scenery on the mountain.

"It's said that you have to walk up by yourself to be sincere, and burning incense will be effective." Chi Muyun said softly.

Lu Qingming laughed, "Yun, I left for you, isn't it the same?"

She put Chi Muyun down gently.

The Great Buddha Temple is a scenic spot. It is during the Ching Ming Festival holiday and there are many tourists.Chi Muyun asked Lu Qingming to queue up to get the incense, while he himself queued up to donate the merit box.

Lu Qingming was really tired recently, so Chi Muyun took advantage of Lu Qingming's birthday to persuade her to come out and play with him for a day or two.The college entrance examination is about to come, and there is a custom here to burn incense and pray for examinees, so Chi Muyun also led the way here with Qingming.

"I hope the Buddha will bless Xiaolu, and let her pass the exam, be safe and healthy." Chi Muyun recited silently in his heart, while carefully inserting the incense stick.

"From today, it's a small road." On the way back, Chi Muyun said suddenly.

Lu Qingming nodded, "Yes, I am an adult now. Yun, you can't keep treating me like a child in the future."

This sentence has been hidden in her heart for a long time, but she didn't say it out until today.

Chi Muyun curled her red lips and smiled, then turned her head and looked out the window.Lu Qingming stared at her profile, thinking of the many stupid things he had done and said in the past.

I don't know when, but she began to realize—it should have been a long time—that there is a gap between Chi Muyun and her that can never be bridged.

The reason why they are close and the reason they are estranged all stems from this.

That is the unbroken bloodline.

No matter how much attachment and love she has in her heart, Chi Muyun will always stand on the other side of the gap, and she can only watch from a distance.

Just like the hug under the moon that was not round on that day a few years ago, Lu Qingming could only say...

"It's so cold, hehehe."

And there can be no other reason to hug.

Maybe it was at that moment that Lu Qingming began to grow up.

She is finally beginning to become an adult who can weigh the pros and cons.

Her emotions can only be kept in her heart forever, or released irresponsibly in an ambiguous form when it is really unbearable.

"Today is the last time for our 'homework team' to gather for study. Come on, cheers!"

There are still three days before entering the examination room, and most schools have canceled the mandatory evening self-study, allowing students to adjust their status freely. The meeting place of the "homework team" this time was in the cafeteria of Xu Yanfeng's school, because the pre-exam meals in this cafeteria were better, and the school gave each student several meal tickets.

After Xu Yanfeng drank a cup of mung bean soup, he suddenly felt sentimental.

Xu Linlin glanced at her.From her point of view, apart from Xu Yanfeng feeling a little sad for their friendship, most of it was because of Li Yanyuan.

Because Li Yanyuan went to Germany on a business trip a few days ago, there is no way to accompany Xu Yanfeng for the time being.During the two days of the exam, I couldn't make it back.

"I said you, you look big and rough... No," Xu Linlin used the wrong idiom in disgust, "You look like a woman, why are you so pretentious because of a stupid thing? Without my cousin, you still don't take the exam ? Can you memorize more formulas if you have the time?..."

As soon as Xu Linlin opened her mouth, there was such a sentimental atmosphere, such a faint sadness about the impending graduation and parting... There was nothing left, only the smell of gunpowder and gunpowder.

Wang Yaning tugged at Xu Linlin's sleeve, and Xu Linlin rolled her eyes and closed her mouth.

This time Xu Yanfeng didn't speak, and said after a while of silence, "You're right, I really shouldn't be so hypocritical."

Zhou Haoyu smoothed things over and said, "Okay, okay, this should be the last time for us to do homework together, so let's start? The teacher said, we can't relax in the last three days, just like a string, it must be stretched to the last one. The exam is over..."

Lu Qingming also nodded.

She will tense.

On the day of the exam, the weather was gloomy and there was rain in the air.

In order to avoid traffic jams, Chi Muyun stayed directly with Lu Qingming in a hotel near the test site.Ling Suzhen specially asked Aunt Wu to come over and cook for Lu Qingming.

The Chi family attached so much importance to her exam, which made Lu Qingming feel warm and heavy.

In the morning Chi Muyun sent Lu Qingming to the test site, and checked her several times.Admission ticket, pen, pencil, eraser, ruler...

"Relax, take it easy."

Obviously Chi Muyun was more nervous.

This was the second time Lu Qingming saw Chi Muyun nervous like this.The last time was when Lu Qingming was injured at the train station.

"Yun, relax, don't be nervous." Lu Qingming looked at her with a smile, his big eyes curled up, and his thin lips formed a beautiful and bright shape.

"Okay, don't be nervous." Chi Muyun seemed to be saying to Lu Qingming, but also to himself, "Come on!"

Perhaps Chi Muyun's sincerity was somewhat sensed by the Buddha, and Lu Qingming completed the exam calmly and normally in the exam room.

Although there was an episode where the answer sheet was wet with sweat, fortunately it was solved perfectly.

The moment Lu Qingming walked out of the examination room, he felt both relaxed and heavy.

The setting sun hung behind the shopping mall opposite the test center, and scattered golden rays of light fell one after another, covering the ordinary people anxiously waiting outside the test center with a layer of broken gold.

When Lu Qingming walked out of the school gate, the surrounding people were bustling with laughter and crying.

A slender figure was seen in the distance, with a look of not daring to approach her even though he saw her.

Lu Qingming hurried over.

"Yun!" She opened her arms and hugged Chi Muyun tightly into her arms.

Chi Muyun was hugged by her, but he didn't tell her to put himself down as usual, but looked at her nervously, "...how is it?"

Lu Qingming showed a big smile, "Thanks to you, everything goes well."

She felt that she was really thanks to Chi Muyun.

When writing an English composition, there was a word that she couldn't remember, and she was so scared that her back was sweating.The word seems to be on the lips——

It suddenly occurred to her that on the day she and Chi Muyun went out to pray to Buddha, she had recited the words when she returned to the hotel at night, and when Chi Muyun asked her to come out for dinner, she had just recited the words.

Ling Suzhen and Chi Tianxiang were both at home, and they even called many relatives over to celebrate Lu Qingming's college entrance examination.

I bought a lot of hard vegetables at home.Huge lobsters, all kinds of seafood, and expensive steaks shipped from Australia... Aunt Wu was so busy that Lu Qingming also went to the kitchen to help.

It is rare that there are so many people today, and Aunt Wu was very happy.Usually there are few people in the family, and she doesn't cook much, which is really a waste of her cooking skills.Today's ingredients are enough for her to play.

"I think Miss Xiaoyun is really happy today." Aunt Wu sighed while chopping vegetables, "She is not very happy when she is, she... well, it really makes people feel distressed."

Lu Qingming asked while washing the vegetables, "What about Yun?"

Aunt Wu rarely told her about these past events.In fact, as long as it was about Chi Muyun, she wanted to know.

"Oh, let's stop talking now, I have to hurry..." Aunt Wu stopped talking.

in the dining room.

Watching one big dish after another being served, a cousin smiled and said, "Shouldn't we hold the school entrance banquet after applying for the exam?"

Chi Tianxiang said while pouring wine, "Hey, it's not easy for a child to take the college entrance examination once. No matter what school he passed, it is worth celebrating. Children nowadays are too tired."

Ling Suzhen nodded approvingly.

Guiqin, who was sitting on one side, glanced at her son.Xiao Zhuzi was eating shrimp with his head down, when he looked up and saw his mother looking at him, he was shocked, "Mom, what are you doing looking at me?"

Guiqin said in a low voice, "What do you think your sister can do in the exam?"

Xiao Zhuzi was stunned by the question, "What did you get in the exam? I heard from my uncle that her grades are pretty good, so the last one shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Guiqin picked up the fish in the bowl with chopsticks and "cut" it.

Xiaozhuzi could hear the disdain in his mother's tone, and felt a little uncomfortable. He whispered, "Mom, don't look down on my sister too much. I think she is really good. To be honest, I admire her. She was like that when she was a child... The way it is now, I think, is very powerful. Oh, oh, mom, don't pinch me..."

Gui Qin pinched Xiao Zhuzi's thigh and turned it back and forth, saying bitterly, "Well, your sister's grades are just a line. When you take the college entrance examination, you must pass this line. If you can't pass it, look at me! "
