The day when she could finally get rid of crutches and walk, Qiao Lan's sophomore life had just ended.
Qiao Lan told Tan Mo that he had won the first-class scholarship for the second year of high school again, and said that he had found a dessert shop. The strawberry moss cups in it were very delicious, and he was quite confident that even if you came back now, Tan Mo, you would not be able to take it away. Her number one.
Tan Mo's right hand tightly grasped the mounting frame of the leg muscle rehab device, and his left hand pressed the mobile phone to his ear. He had just undergone intensive rehabilitation exercises, his breathing was a little faster than usual, and his voice carried himself. A smile you never noticed,
"yes?"
"Of course," Qiao Lan said. "My biological grades are very good. Every time I get close to a perfect score, you haven't studied recently, right? You can't compare to me."
Tan Mo smiled silently, "It's amazing."
Qiao Lan almost heard a bit of indulgence from this sentence, and even felt that it was an illusion, "Tan Mo", Qiao Lan called out to Tan Mo, "Is there anything happy today, I am in such a mood. it is good."
"En," Tan Mo let go of the mounting bracket, without supporting anything, stood firm, walked forward, and walked back to the ward from here, with a shallow smile in his eyes, and Qiao Lan's wild words in his ears.
She asked him what happened so happily today, and Tan Mo said it was a secret and didn't tell you.
For more than half a year, Tan Mo didn't know whether this trip was a surprise or a disappointment. Until now, the doctor finally told him that it must be a surprise.
He can already stand and walk without any assistance. Now he does not need to continue the previous rehabilitation. The main daily rehabilitation tasks become exercise, start a lot of nutritional supplements, and then start exercising to strengthen his physical fitness.
Slowly he can not only walk normally, go up and down stairs, but also run and jump.
After more than a year of accumulation of sickness, three months of rehabilitation, which was like a walk in the area, and tossed the body for a long time, now is the weakest time.
Chen Bo hired the most professional rehabilitator for Tan Mo, and used the most professional data to calculate the maximum amount of exercise that Tan Mo can withstand now.
For a patient who has just recovered, starting such high-intensity exercise training now is not something that ordinary people can do. Just like people who have never exercised before, they have received the highest-intensity training from the beginning, and few people can persevere, let alone a patient who has just recovered from a serious illness.
The rehabilitator looked at the tall, thin, but sickly young boy at a glance. He didn't think he could last a few days, but he didn't want him to last day after day.
He will not overdose, it must be controlled within the acceptable range, but as long as it is a good plan, it will be completed on the same day.
In this way, Tan Mo's progress can be described as rapid.
Under the amazement, the rehabilitator actively helped Tan Mo recover, and sometimes chatted with Tan Mo, recommending that he can keep exercising every day after the recovery is complete. It is better to learn some professional exercises than strengthening exercises, which can be better Strengthen your physique.
Tan Mo said that he knew, but he didn't say that he had this idea long ago.
He always remembered the pain of Luo Lai harassing Qiao Lan at the school gate when he could only sit in a wheelchair and couldn't do anything. If he could, he would definitely rush up first, and then remove the dirty hand that touched Qiao Lan.
The phone next to him rang, and Tan Mo took it and answered the call. The rehabilitator looked at the boy who had just been expressionless and cold. When he picked up the phone, his cold facial features melted instantly, and even his voice was lost. Involuntarily softened.
Tan Mo speaks Chinese, which the rehabilitator does not understand, but from Tan Mo's short answers, it can be heard that they are all household words that are not nutritious.
There is really no nutrition, such as how is the weather today, what did you eat today, etc.
It was eleven o'clock in the morning in New York and eleven in the evening in China. Qiao Lan called Tan Mo before going to bed.
After she called her, she found that she actually didn't seem to have anything to say. She had been on vacation recently. She had been reading and not going out to play, nor did she have anything interesting to share with Tan Mo.
But still hit.
During the winter vacation, Tan Mo left for the United States. Now that half of the summer vacation has passed, Qiao Lan has not seen Tan Mo for half a year.
The longer they were apart, the more Qiao Lan realized that Tan Mo was more important to her than she thought.
When she first came to this strange world, she had no friends or relatives. It had been two years, but Tan Mo was the only one who really approached her. When Tan Mo was there, Qiao Lan just liked the life with Tan Mo. After Tan Mo left, Qiao Lan realized that she seemed to have lost a home.
Qiao Lan clearly and clearly realized that she wanted Tan Mo.
She thought about the boy who was always expressionless, but tried his best to laugh.
Qiao Lan didn't know what she said, it was all nonsense anyway, but Tan Mo was not impatient at all, and still listened carefully, until Qiao Lan suddenly fell silent, and Tan Mo was at a loss for a while. Is it because she is so boring that she doesn't know what to say...
"When are you coming back?"
Qiao Lan spoke softly.
When will you come back.
Will you ever come back.
I miss you a bit.
No, I really miss you.
The girl's slightly hesitant but soft voice, accompanied by the moonlight, dimly made Tan Mo feel that he had heard something.
"It's coming soon," the likes and misses hidden in his heart couldn't wait to get stuck in his throat, Tan Mo's voice was hoarse and slightly trembling.
Soon, really soon.
Finally hung up the phone, and the rehabilitator next to him teased him ambiguous, "Girlfriend?"
Tan Mo squeezed the mobile phone in his hand, no, Tan Mo subconsciously wanted to say this, but he suddenly had uncontrollable greed when he said it.
After the rehabilitation is completely over, he will never see this rehabilitator again. Even if he lied, he will not expose him or tell others, let alone Qiao Lan.
He just, just wanted to give it a try, not to refute this sentence, to use language to say what it feels like Qiao Lan is really his girlfriend.
He was silent for a long time, like after struggling in his heart for a long time, he said, "Yes."
The moment he said "yes", Tan Mo felt that he was drowned out by the overwhelming sound of shame and blame, but was covered by the joy and intimacy that made his heart palpitate and tremble even more.
The rehabilitator couldn't see the magnificent emotional fluctuations hidden under this expressionless face, and the gossip and Tan Mo asked if his girlfriend was very good, whether she was beautiful or not.
"Excellent", Tan Mo heard the word "girlfriend" from the rehabilitator's mouth, and his heart seemed to be suddenly grabbed.
"Beautiful, very beautiful."
"real?"
The rehabilitator was quite excited. He asked Tan Mo if he had any photos, and then looked down at Tan Mo's phone.
Tan Mo buckled the screen of his mobile phone to the ground, his tone suddenly turned cold.
"No."
Rehabilitation Physician: …
Keep training.
The summer vacation of the second year of high school is much shorter than that of the first year of high school. Because we are entering the third year of high school soon, we must start make-up classes in advance.
There were only senior high school students in the school, and it was a lot empty in an instant. Qiao Lan returned to the dormitory, and Bai Yu and the others did not see each other for half the summer vacation. Qiao Lan was still very happy when they met again.
Bai Yu's hometown is far in the northwest, so he went to the northwest and brought a lot of special products to the dormitory, such as raisins and lavender.
After the dormitory was allotted, Bai Yu divided several more, preparing to bring some good boys in the class when he officially made up the class the next day.
Bai Yu's personality is like a boy, except for Qiao Lan, almost all the guys with the best relationship are boys.
Although Hao Ying started out to chase after Qiao Lan and deliberately approached the girl who had a good relationship with Qiao Lan, but after a long time, everyone did get to play together, regardless of whether they liked it or not, they were all friends with good personalities.
After the division was over, the phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Hao Ying's WeChat, and asked her to sneak down to the dormitory building.
Bai Yu glanced at Qiao Lan, shook her head helplessly and went downstairs, where she saw Hao Ying who was tanned.
Hao Ying said that he went to Hawaii to play during the summer vacation, so he tanned a lot. He handed the bag to Bai Yu, saying that it was a souvenir he bought when he went to Hawaii to play, and asked Bai Yu to show some good friends. Everyone divided one, and finally took out the best packaged one with a little embarrassment and asked her to hand it over to Qiao Lan.
Bai Yu looked down and saw that a bracelet of pearls and small shells was very beautiful, and it was not cheap at first glance.
"I think she might not accept it." Although she didn't want to hit Hao Ying, Bai Yu still reminded Hao Ying.
Hao Ying scratched his head, revealing white teeth that were even whiter because of his tanned skin, "Let's talk about it if you don't accept it."
Okay, Bai Yu took the things and went upstairs. After delivering the gifts one by one, he finally gave the bracelet to Qiao Lan.
Sure enough, Qiao Lan didn't accept it.
If it was the same shell bracelet as everyone else, it would be fine, but looking at the pearls on it, Qiao Lan couldn't take it away. She reassembled the bracelet and prepared to return it to Hao Ying in class tomorrow.
There are only two of her left in the dormitory now, Bai Yu sighed, "I know that Hao Ying made such a mess that the whole school knew it, but he regretted it later, it's been more than half a year, you really Didn't you think about it?"
Qiao Lan shook her head honestly, "No."
"Why!"
Qiao Lan smiled, "What's the reason for this, I just don't like it."
Qiao Lan took off the small apple jade pendant around her neck, took out a good red rope again, and replaced the worn red rope.
Bai Yu looked at the jade pendant carefully and carefully, and asked her casually on the bed, "I remember that you have worn this pendant for a long time."
"Um."
"You bought it yourself?"
Having seen Qiao Lan's disgusting family, Bai Yu never thought that Qiao's family could buy such a thing for Qiao Lan. She had seen Qiao Lan's jade pendant, the quality of the jade was very good, and the price was definitely not cheap.
"No," Qiao Lan put on the jade pendant, put the jade pendant on again, and put the cold pendant on her collarbone. Qiao Lan's eyes curled up, "From Tan Mo."
Bai Yu was stunned.
She looked down at Qiao Lan, thinking of Hao Ying's bracelet rejected by Qiao Lan, and thinking about the jade pendant so precious by Qiao Lan, she suddenly called out to Qiao Lan.
"Lan Lan."
"Um?"
"you will not…"
Having said that, Qiao Lan didn't wait for the second half of Bai Yu's sentence after waiting for a long time, so she raised her head and asked her what she wanted to say.
"You didn't finish your summer homework, did you?"
Qiao Lan: …
When Qiao Lan left the dormitory, Bai Yu lay on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.
Tan Mo has been away for more than half a year. Whether it is Bai Yu or the rest of the class, for nearly two hundred days, he has gradually forgotten the name of the unfamiliar boy, until Qiao Lan just mentioned, Only then did Bai Yu suddenly realize that when Qiao Lan talked about Tan Mo, her tone was still familiar and natural and intimate.
Are you still waiting for him to come back
Do you... actually like Tan Mo...
Thinking of the young man in a wheelchair who was gradually blurred from his memory, Bai Yu thought it was too bizarre and didn't ask.
It doesn't seem to make sense to ask this, after all Tan Mo has already left.
The next day, the make-up class officially started, and the seats at the beginning of the school were a big mess again. At this time, everyone always took the time to adjust their seats by themselves. Bai Yu was the first to grab the seat next to Qiao Lan.
Not to mention that the two of them have a good relationship, but to say that Qiao Lan's grades are the first in age, who doesn't want to sit at the same table with Xueba in the third year of high school.
"Lan Lan, why should we sit together..."
Before he finished speaking, the student who suddenly ran in from the outside looked shocked and excited, and uttered several times in a row.
"Fuck, fuck, guess who I just saw!"
There was a commotion outside the corridor. Many students were leaning on the windows and looking out. Exclamations and screams entered the classroom through the thin classroom door.
"What's wrong?"
Qiao Lan looked back outside the classroom in surprise.
The turquoise classroom door was pushed open, and the noise was amplified many times in an instant. Amidst the exclamations and gasps, a teenager who had not seen for two hundred days walked in with his slender legs stepping on the morning sun. classroom.
Qiao Lan stared blankly at Tan Mo, who was standing like everyone else, and suddenly tears blurred her eyes.
