On the first day when Guo Jingyu returned to school, he dragged the top student of the first grade to the punishment station. It was hard to think of not being famous.
There are many courses in the third year of high school, and besides being tedious, there is only one thing that can make everyone happy.
The news quickly spread throughout the entire high school building.
Guo Jingyu was surrounded by He Xiangyang and a few people while he was working in the corridor between classes. He Xiangyang said excitedly: "Brother Yu! Why didn't you say hello to us when you came back, tonight? Invite you to eat barbecue and let you catch the wind!"
Guo Jingyu asked, "Why at night?"
"Tutorials are required at noon," He Xiangyang said honestly. "When you were away, Li Tongzhou kept giving us lessons, and he never missed noon."
Guo Jingyu was a little surprised, and when he went over to the rooftop at noon to look at it, he realized that what He Xiangyang said was true.
Li Tongzhou took the exam papers and books and went to make up lessons for these people. His face was light and expressionless, and his words were not polite, but several people around him were obediently burying their heads in the study, and none of them contradicted.
The learning and mutual aid group on the rooftop is still there. He Xiangyang and the others rarely hold on. Although some people are late every day, there are always people there. Everyone regards this as an agreement and guards it together. Li Tongzhou gave them guidance instead of Guo Jingyu. The grades of these people have improved, and their attitude towards Li Tongzhou is much more respectful than before.
After Guo Jingyu approached, Li Tongzhou stepped aside a little bit beside him and looked up at him, "Jingyu, here."
Guo Jingyu couldn't do it without sitting down, so he sat down next to him and held a book and studied together.
Li Tongzhou can rest for 5 minutes in 20 minutes. This group of people just said a few words to Guo Jingyu, and Li Tongzhou on the side pinched his watch and said: "Five minutes are up, continue, then listen to the listening, and prepare a picture by yourself. answer sheet."
Several people wailed, and collectively turned their heads to look at Guo Jingyu pitifully.
Guo Jingyu smirked in his heart, feeling that apart from growing taller, the mental age of these little bastards has not changed at all. No matter how you look at it, it looks a bit like when he was beaten by his mother when he was a child, and he eagerly went to beg his father.
Guo Jingyu coughed and didn't help, "Everything is ready, hurry up, didn't you hear?"
He Xiangyang's group could only start to do the questions with a sad face.
There was no one on the rooftop, Li Tongzhou put the English listening tape into the repeater, turned up the volume a little, let them listen to it by themselves, took the textbook at hand and went to tutor Guo Jingyu alone.
Guo Jingyu delayed his homework for half the semester, and the progress was different from everyone else. Li Tongzhou gave him guidance very patiently.
The two sat side by side in the shade at the back, and a row of elementary school scumbags sat in front of them. Everyone was scratching their heads and writing listening answers. Guo Jingyu felt that he and Li Tongzhou were especially invigilating teachers, and he couldn't help but be amused.
Li Tongzhou looked up at him, puzzled.
Guo Jingyu bumped his arm lightly against him and bit his ear: "I'm not here, who are you playing with in class?"
"nobody."
"Eating alone in the cafeteria at noon?"
"Um."
Guo Jingyu immediately raised his eyebrows: "He Xiangyang, they didn't feed you?" He had explained it to him before he left.
Li Tongzhou shook his head: "I'm not used to it. After he called a few times, I didn't ask him to help."
Guo Jingyu said: "What's not used to, everyone helps each other, you see, didn't you help them for more than half a year, we will often come and go in the future, and we will gradually get to know each other."
Li Tongzhou was still looking at him, his eyes fell on his face for a moment, and he quickly lowered his eyes to read the textbook and said, "Jing Yu, I'm not used to interacting with other people."
Guo Jingyu wondered: "Why, aren't you doing well now?"
"Because you're not here, I'm just doing what I can for you." Li Tongzhou said, "When you come back, I'd like to teach you more."
Guo Jingyu touched him with his arm again, lowered his voice and said with a smile: "Then you have to learn to adapt slowly. When we are together in the future, I still want to set up a drink. Please invite a lot of people to come and accept a big one. Take some money... Hey, don't you know, what people look forward to most after they get married is to count the money together that night."
Li Tongzhou didn't say a word, he just stretched out his hand and silently shook it with his.
At the end of the noon tuition, Guo Jingyu and Li Tongzhou returned to the class together. The students in the class were all busy with their own work, and there were very few people talking. Some people were already reciting the afternoon text in advance.
Guo Jingyu's books had just arrived, and they were all brand new. He followed the way of the other students in the class and followed them for a while, and did a preview in advance.
When Li Tongzhou pushed the backgammon board again, he was rejected by Guo Jingyu.
Just kidding, he doesn't want to stimulate the head teacher for the second time, and if he gets arrested again, the old class will eat him raw!
Guo Jingyu followed him to the class, and Li Tongzhou also pushed him the notes and asked him to read it with him, but he could keep up with the progress.
It's just that it's easy to get sleepy in the afternoon, and as soon as the sun is warm, Guo Jingyu wants to sleep with his chin up.
He squinted to look at the classmates next to him. In fact, there are many people who are as sleepy as him, but the other party is more ruthless. coming. Guo Jingyuguang felt pain when he looked at it, and immediately woke up a lot.
Li Tongzhou touched his arm, "Jing Yu, read the notes."
Guo Jingyu turned his eyes back, but after a while, he lost his mind again. He looked at the blackboard and reflected on himself deeply. Is this all a question he knew before? Why is he completely unimpressed, how did he get into college in the first place? !
Li Tongzhou has been paying attention to him, and when Guo Jingyu slipped again, he reached out and put his hand on the other's lap and whispered, "Concentrate."
Guo Jingyu: "!!"
Guo Jingyu's attention was instantly concentrated. While reading, he was attracted by the hand on his lap. He moved a little, and this guy Li Tongzhou even pinched him, Guo Jingyu bit his lip and didn't stop Silence.
Li Tongzhou's face was serious, he read and took notes, as usual.
Only when being called up by the teacher to answer a question, his hand will temporarily leave for a while, and once he sits down, he will put it back on Guo Jingyu's lap, which is very convenient.
Guo Jingyu's face was hot, and he was really not sleepy at the moment. His school uniform was large, which just covered Li Tongzhou's hand, which was too exciting.
When the get out of class was over, he immediately got up and went out, went to the bathroom and splashed cold water on his face.
After school in the evening, He Xiangyang and the others took Guo Jingyu to have a barbecue together. It was the same old place, Li Da BBQ restaurant at the school gate. Not only He Xiangyang and the others passed by, but also a lot of people from the school basketball team, and it was a good time.
He Xiangyang opened a can of beer. When Guo Jingyu looked at him, He Xiangyang innocently said, "Brother Yu, I'm 18, and it was my birthday just last week."
Guo Jingyu approved, "Oh, that's fine."
Li Tongzhou said: "There is a self-study class at night, and students are not allowed to drink."
Guo Jingyu immediately changed his words: "Yes, listen to him, see what I'm doing, change it quickly!"
He Xiangyang replaced the beer he had just opened with Sprite, and sat in the Li Da BBQ restaurant timidly, looking very honest.
There were a lot of people around, and the chat was quite happy. He Xiangyang and Guo Jingyu sat next to each other, and praised Li Tongzhou a lot to him, "He is very good to us.
"Do you teach patience?"
"Impatient, keep looking at us like this." He Xiangyang gestured with a confused expression and raised his eyebrows with his fingers, "Just like this, I don't seem to understand why we have a pen in our hand, why we can't write correctly."
Guo Jingyu almost spat out a mouthful of juice, patted him on the shoulder, leaned in and whispered, "He's not very good at dealing with people, but he has a good heart, and you'll know it after a long time."
He Xiangyang smiled and said: "I know, other people think that we are not good enough, we are scum and mud, but Brother Yu, you are different from Li Tongzhou. You are really kind to us."
Guo Jingyu was a little surprised and looked at him: "Yo, I'm really grown up and sensible."
He Xiangyang rubbed the tip of his nose and pointed to Sun Hua who was lining up in front to get the roasted chicken wings, "Brother Yu, Sun Hua's father made some money from the stock market, and now he's engaged in transportation, his family's conditions are much better, and he even bought a Take out a repeater for everyone to share and listen to listening together. My family is also very good. My dad opened a new store. He said that if I was admitted to university, he would reward me for going abroad to play..." He Xiangyang continued. Several people, both personally and at home, have changed to some extent and improved for the better. He whispered: "Actually, everyone is grateful, and they like you, but they are thin-skinned and embarrassed to say it."
Guo Jingyu said: "You are thick-skinned, open your mouth and say you like it, I have someone I like, don't confess to me."
He Xiangyang was really thick-skinned, and immediately raised the drink in his hand and said, "Brother Jingyu and sister-in-law, I wish you all a long life together!"
Guo Jingyu touched a glass with him, and Li Tongzhou on the other side also raised his glass and drank together.
There was a self-study in the evening, and a few people dispersed quickly. The money for the skewers was made up by Sun Hua and the others. They said it was to catch the wind. After paying the money, a bunch of stinky boys ran away.
Guo Jingyu only had time to grab He Xiangyang, so he called him aside and muttered for a while. Before he left, he told He Xiangyang and the others to pay attention to take care of Li Tongzhou.
He Xiangyang said: "We all followed, nothing else, just a special routine every day, either coming to school or going home."
Guo Jingyu was worried and asked some more questions, but He Xiangyang was only following after school, and the rest was unclear.
While they were talking, Li Tongzhou was waiting not far away with his bag on his back, raising his hand to look at his watch.
Guo Jingyu saw it, patted He Xiangyang and said, "Okay, I understand, thank you."
He Xiangyang smiled, waved to him, and left first.
The evening self-study in the third year of high school is said to be voluntary, but in fact no one will leave early.
At the juncture of the final sprint, no matter how good or bad the grades are, you have to fight. The blackboard is written on the day of the final battle of the college entrance examination. The countdown is erased and rewritten every day.
Teacher Jin helped Guo Jingyu to ask for leave. During the three self-study classes in the evening, Guo Jingyu would go to the studio to paint. Mr. Jin set up a still life table for him alone, and also carefully wrote the class schedule. The sketches and gouache took turns, and he handed in a complete painting in two days.
Guo Jingyu sometimes painted too much and would leave later, so Li Tongzhou came to accompany him.
Guo Jingyu turned the pencil in his hand and asked him to be a model for himself.
Li Tongzhou asked, "What should I do?"
Guo Jingyu said, "Just sit there and read as you usually do."
Li Tongzhou did a good job as a model for the first time, and he kept his posture unchanged for an hour. Later, Guo Jingyu felt distressed and did not let him be a sketch model again. He asked him to change his movements to be a sketch model. This is much faster. It's easy.
After Li Tongzhou made a few sketch models, Guo Jingyu came over to change his posture, and Li Tongzhou suddenly reached out and hugged him.
Guo Jingyu almost stumbled and was amused by bumping his head into his arms, "What are you doing, let go, I have the last painting, let's go home after painting."
Li Tongzhou held him and didn't let go. After watching him for a while, he suddenly got close and wanted to kiss him.
Guo Jingyu hid in time, but was hugged and couldn't run away, the kiss fell on the cheek.
Guo Jingyu raised his hand and pushed his chin, "Hey, shameless, we agreed."
Li Tongzhou released him slightly, raised his hand and squeezed his chin, and kept staring at him while rubbing. He didn't say a word, just rolled his Adam's apple and his eyes were dark, as if restraining something.
Guo Jingyu was so swayed by him that he almost couldn't keep his principles.
In the end, Li Tongzhou let go first, and said in a hoarse voice, "I see."
Going home in the evening, Li Tongzhou insisted on taking him downstairs. Guo Jingyu thought about the actions Li Tongzhou made in the studio at night, and he already drove seven or eight sports cars in his heart, but the yellow scraps arrived in front of Li Tongzhou and was led by this man. Holding the little hand, it suddenly turned into a jar of honey, sticky, as if a hug would be enough.
Li Tongzhou hugged him very lightly and said good night in his ear.
When Guo Jingyu went upstairs, his footsteps were floating, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up, thinking to himself, as expected of the little boyfriend he was looking for, his mouth is so sweet.
At home, Guo's father made some late-night snacks for him and cut up a fruit plate, waiting for him to come back for extra meals.
Guo Jingyu worked hard at school and had enough confidence to go home to eat. He ate a big mouthful and said, "Dad, that salt-baked chicken will buy another tomorrow? We have an exam next Monday, and I want to eat chicken legs."
Dad Guo agreed immediately and asked again, "Is one enough?"
Guo Jingyu thought about it and said, "Buy two, and get more sweet and sour sauce. I'll bring it back to Li Tongzhou and share it with him."
Dad Guo nodded in agreement, and asked about Li Tongzhou's family situation by the way. Hearing that his parents are still not at home often, he said casually: "Your classmate's family is also very strange, these parents are busy with their own work all day, and they don't see each other all year round. A few times, it seemed like there was a home outside."
The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.
Guo Jingyu paused with his chopsticks, and after a while, he continued to eat as if nothing had happened.
The next day Guo Jingyu found He Xiangyang, called him into the corridor, and whispered, "Xiao He, does your dad know some friends?"
He Xiangyang didn't understand, "What friend?"
"Just to help with the investigation."
"...I know some, Brother Yu, what are you looking for?"
"Don't worry about it, ask me for contact information, and I'll tell them." Guo Jingyu said vaguely, "It's inconvenient to talk about some things at home."
He Xiangyang was very obedient, so he asked for his contact information on the same day. After Guo Jingyu got it, he took a leave of absence for evening self-study with Teacher Jin and went out to talk to the other party. He still had a lot of money in his pocket. The 50,000 yuan he had withdrawn from Wu Xiajun at the beginning was only 20,000 yuan. The remaining money was enough to spend. He paid someone to follow Li Tongzhou's parents-he had Some doubts, the reaction of Li Tongzhou's parents back then was a little strange.
Li Tongzhou couldn't ask for the time being, he could only make second-hand preparations.
