Back in her room, Lin Zhaoxi sat down by the door.
This is probably the posture that many protagonists in film and television dramas would choose. She used to think that it was purely for good looks. Only now do I know that when a person reaches a certain point, his first reaction is to sit down, because he can’t move anymore.
She wiped her face on the sleeve to dry her tears, but her eyes were still wet.
The wooden floor extending straight to the end of the room, the open balcony, the floating curtains, and the low night sky farther away, it is a big world, but it is also small enough.
Until now, she wanted to calm herself down, think carefully about the loopholes in the conversation between Vice President Zhang and her, and rushed out to fight back severely.
Like the plot that would appear in an ideal, the brave slays the dragon, the town regains its peace, and the hero returns to his hometown.
But she couldn't do it, because her mind was full of his words, like the roar in the empty valley, or the rainstorm as thick as ink on the edge of the cliff, rumbling in her mind, over and over again, driving her from beginning to end Drenched.
In fact, the longer she listened, the more familiar the words seemed to her. She seemed to use another way, when Lu Zhihao was at his lowest, she said the exact opposite to him.
Basically yes - whatever, don't give up.
But the savage anti-chicken soup activists say that people who want to give up will always find an excuse to give up, because giving up is what he really wants.
The logic is perfect.
Moonlight shines in from the window, and there is a small shadow of her by the door.
Although she really wanted to blame Zhang Shuping, it turned out that what Zhang Shuping said was the reality she had experienced.
what can we do about it
How could she come up with a sentence that could strike back at the other party thoroughly and fiercely.
However, time passed by every minute.
The light blue curtains floated back and forth under the night sky, and it was getting closer and closer to the time when the orphanage came to pick her up.
Maybe at a certain moment after dawn, there will be a knock on her door, and the figure of the dean's mother will appear at the door, telling her that it is time to go.
But why can't we go
Now that she has found her father, Vice Principal Zhang is so annoying. Even if they go back, they can organize a math class and let Lao Lin continue to teach everyone. There should be no regrets.
If you think so, you can leave, but why can't you walk
Lin Zhaoxi buried her head in her arms.
Anyone can have one.
she thought so.

When Xie Ran woke up, he always felt as if he had done Jimidovich's exercise set all night. His mind was full of messed up function curves, and the lines were shaking up and down on the coordinate axis, without any rules at all.
He sat up and looked at the time. It was almost 7 o'clock. According to the agreement with Lin Zhaoxi's home last night, people from the orphanage would pick her up at 8:30.
He only found out last night that the little girl was an orphan. The moment he learned the truth, he actually regretted it very much.
He also didn't know what he regretted. He probably felt that it was not easy to be optimistic and cheerful in that kind of living environment, but Lin Zhaoxi still did so many things, trying to drag more children to learn mathematics by himself. , this is so amazing.
Now, they want to drive away such a child and obliterate what she has worked so hard to hold on to, Xie Ran faintly feels that it shouldn't be like this.
But what should it be
He is just an intern, and no one has ever told him what to do.
—
Lu Zhihao lay on the bed and didn't sleep all night. He has never suffered from insomnia in his life, and even when he was pushed hard by Vice Principal Zhang, he would fall asleep right away.
He has never been like this before, like a fat lying in a frying pan, his whole body is sizzling, he is suffering, but he continues to lie down.
In fact, after returning to the dormitory yesterday, it wasn't that he didn't think about rushing down to have a big fight with Vice Principal Zhang, but not long after, she heard Lin Zhaoxi's voice going upstairs.
He regretted that he didn't rush out at that time, even if Pei Zhi said "don't go" before leaving, he could still go, the rule that boys can't go to girls' floors is nothing.
However, because he missed an opportunity, he kept hesitating. It was only after dawn that he realized that he had wasted the whole night.
But he is not Pei Zhi, what can he do, he has no idea what he can do.
Lu Zhihao turned over and scratched his hair in a mess.
—
It was dawn, and Lin Zhaoxi didn't know what he was hesitating about.
She hugged her knees, saw the sun rise, heard the birds chirping, and no one came until the sun was bright.
She had looked forward to Pei Zhi, to Hanamaki, to Lu Zhihao, and even searched her guts to find a character in an inspirational drama and expect herself to be the other...
But among all the expectations, what she wants the most is still the sudden arrival of the Great Demon King.
She expected that Lao Lin could wake her up, help her, and save her with the cruelest words, telling her what to do as he had always done before.
However, Pei Zhi didn't come, Hanamaki didn't come, Lu Zhihao didn't come, and most importantly, Lao Lin didn't come this night.
Even if she tried to send a message and asked Lao Lin to help her, this time, Lao Lin didn't come.
Lin Zhaoxi couldn't tell what it was like, she saw her hands and feet that had shrunk, her worn-out sneakers, and the rising sun made her eyes ache.
Is that the end
She will memorize so much chicken soup for the soul, trying to draw strength from all the inspirational stories in the world, but forget the most important thing-the story is always the story.
In reality, there are no magical works and terrible characters that can make people change instantly, because even the rebirth beyond all powers cannot make her reborn.
She may shrink back due to difficulties in the future, or find excuses to excuse her, or she may even be doomed not to be the kind of person she dreams of, like Pei Zhi.
But at that moment, despite her heavy body and heavy legs, her heart suddenly relaxed.
She rolled over and grabbed the doorknob.
That being the case, let's keep it simple, after the fuck, get up first this time.
—
"Are you finished! If you don't sleep, I will sleep!"
Lu Zhihao turned over on the bed again, and the boy in his room finally yelled at him.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
As if catching a life-saving straw, Lu Zhihao sat up from the bed and frantically ran to the door. The moment he opened the door, all the nervousness disappeared at the same time.
Hanamaki leaned against the door, looking at him with dark circles under her eyes: "Why, seeing me so disappointed."
"You... what do you want to do?"
"I don't know, so I'm here to ask you, what are we going to do next?"
"I... I don't know either." Lu Zhihao looked around, but the corridor was empty, and everyone was still asleep, "Pei... Where's Pei Zhi?"
"have no idea."
"What do you mean don't know, isn't he with you?"
"No, the person disappeared in the morning." Hanamaki said.
—
"Thank you, it's them, please let them in."
Xie Ran said vaguely, spit out the toothpaste in his mouth, and repeated it again.
The call came from the gatekeeper of the oasis base, and the time was 7:30. Lin Zhaoxi's parents arrived earlier than he expected.
He hung up the phone, filled the water glass, and took a big sip. The tap water passed through his mouth twice, and the cold mint taste made him spit it out.
His face was wet and cold, but his phone was slightly hot in his pocket.
In the mirror, he is still a young college student. He can’t afford the electronic device in his pocket. He owns it because the summer camp organizer hopes that students can contact the teacher in time when they have difficulties.
Yes, he is still a teacher.
Xie Ran didn't know what he was thinking. When he came back to his senses, he had dialed the number of the doorman in reverse: "Please tell them to wait at the door for a while, I'll go over right away."
He said.
—
When opening the door, Lin Zhaoxi saw the stainless steel dinner plate on the ground at first sight.
On the plate were freshly baked croissants, and she could even smell the buttery aroma in the air.
Her gaze followed the dinner plate to the side of the corridor, but there was no one there. She held on to her sore legs and had to squat down after she stood up.
She picked up the bread and felt the residual heat with her fingertips. The bread should have just come out of the oven not long ago.
She recalled carefully, was anyone here just now
She seemed to have only heard the footsteps once, thinking it was the girl next door getting up to study, but it was really only once.
She looked at the door that had just been opened in disbelief, the thick wooden boards blocked her sight, and her heartbeat was getting faster and stronger.
"morning."
Through the door, a calm voice finally came through.
—
Dang Aiping stood at the gate of the oasis base, and the iron gate slowly moved away.
The morning breeze by the big lake made her feel chilly all over, she couldn't help but gather up her clothes, looking at the magnificent buildings in front of her, her mood was countless times calmer than when she went out.
When she received the call in the early morning, she stayed up all night, feeling both angry and sad.
The teacher on the phone just asked her to pick up the child the next morning because Lin Zhaoxi led the other children to stay out at night.
When she wanted to ask again, the phone had already been hung up.
She didn't call again because her dignity didn't allow it.
As a parent, she doesn't even think it's wrong to stay out at night. She's just a child, always mischievous and playful, and she will be expelled from the summer camp just because of this kind of problem
When she woke up in the morning, she was still filled with this feeling of shock, anger, and disbelief.
She was on duty last night, and she checked the orphanage with this emotion, then hurriedly opened the courtyard door, ready to have a big fight.
However, the moment she pushed the door open, the light morning light slanted down, and she saw someone sleeping on the steps with their clothes on.
The ground was full of cigarette butts, and when the door was pushed, the person on the ground opened his eyes slightly.
"Why are you here again?" Looking at the other party, she remembered asking herself.
"Wait a moment." The security guard suddenly poked his head out.
Dang Aiping withdrew her thoughts and looked at the man beside her, who stopped along with her.
