Zhan Ming's deeds have become a legend in No. 7 Middle School.
Silently recite it on every confession wall that was found destroyed and rebuilt by the teacher.
At the swearing-in meeting of the third year of high school every year, I was taken out by the teachers to persuade the students that the prodigal son would return for money.
Every time someone fights, Lao Huang will always say, do you think your three-legged cat is very good? At that time, there was a student in my grade, the school bully, and the teachers couldn't beat him. Every time there was a fight, several male teachers had to go and catch him. As a result, this kind of stubborn stubble, in the third year of high school, has to study obediently, and the only thing left in my heart is study, and I don't think about anything. A big man of 1.9 meters, in order to study, hugs the thigh of the same table every day!
"and after?"
Lao Huang took a sip of tea and continued slowly, "Later?"
"Afterwards, he did well in the test. It used to be the countdown of the grade. After entering the third year of high school, every time he took the test, he went forward and backward, and he generally improved. In the final college entrance examination, it was the best time for him, compared with the beginning, I have improved by 600! No kidding, 600! Your head teacher, Lao Zhang, knows this best. He was a student in his class back then. Since I started working, this is the student who has changed the most. . From below the college line, it has been soaring to the first line. I stepped on the first line, and I just stepped on the score. I remember it very clearly, not much, but not a lot. "
Lao Zhang said: "He chose a very popular major, communication engineering, right? Or electronic information? He didn't accept the transfer major, and finally went to the second-level school, which is also very good, and the major is very good."
The student asked, "Where's his fellow student at the same table?"
"That's a pretty good test!" Lao Huang was excited, "A full score in a single subject in mathematics, ranking first in a single subject in the city! The total score is also good, he could still be admitted with a lower score, but he didn't need to drop the score, so he passed the test himself. B University. Don't you know, this scholar was transferred from No. 1 High School. He didn't get good grades in their No. 1 High School, so he never got such a good score. He came to No. 7 High School and made rapid progress. It was the happiest year for our principal, he said that it was the first time he held a meeting at the Education Bureau, and the principal of No. 1 Middle School had nothing to say!"
"Cut!" The student scoffed, "It turns out that he has such a powerful student at the same table. What's wrong, he can teach him at the same table! How is it like me, teacher, my tablemate exam is worse than me? ! Excuse me, how can the two of us be counted down to improve to 600 places?"
Lao Zhang clapped the table: "You're still reasonable! Is this the time to talk about this? Now we're talking about your fight! I'm telling you—"
Noisy in the Mingzhi Building of the Seventh Middle School was the same as in the summer of that year.
Many Gu Qinan had forgotten about that summer.
That summer went by so fast.
One-mode, two-mode, three-mode, and mock exams once a week came so fast that everyone didn’t have time to react.
The second round of review is over soon, and the third round is to keep doing questions, testing, and commenting.
Zhan Ming has been advancing and retreating, ups and downs until the end, he has been paralyzed. Anyway, the general is rising, albeit very slowly.
The temperature gradually increased along with the pressure, and in June, it broke the watch.
The results were good, and they all got into the ideal university. Gu Qinan went to the first choice, the mathematics department of B University; Zhan Ming was admitted to the capital university, a 40-minute drive from B University; Wu Yuan and Qiu Ranying were admitted to the same 211 university in the province. They were definitely connected; Lin Xiaobin was admitted to Nanzhou Vocational and Technical College, a public junior college. The school environment is very good. His major is market management. According to Lin Xiaobin's words, after graduation, he plans to go home to inherit the family business and run the laundry well.
Lin Xiaobin's parents were very happy. They thought that Lin Xiaobin would not even be able to get a high school diploma, but it turned out that he was admitted to a university, which is still a public school. For this, the two also called to thank Lao Zhang. Lao Zhang said that it was all the credit of Gu Qinan, the first grader, who led the three of them to study hard.
To this end, Lin Xiaobin's parents also invited the three of them to a meal. During the banquet, Lin Xiaobin's father brought out beer, red wine, white wine, and bayberry wine, and poured them full glasses, making the three middle school students look stupid.
In the end, Gu Qinan was carried back to the small rental house by Zhan Ming.
After Wu Yuan and Qiu Ranying established their relationship, they also invited everyone to dinner.
Gu Qinan's parents invited them to dinner at home again.
The four of them made an appointment to eat skewers, barbecue, and sand tea noodles together. After the exam, they went out to play almost every day.
Brother Zhan quickly found a new part-time job and did not go to the construction site this time. I found a part-time job as a clerk in a convenience store. I worked day and night shifts, and worked eight hours a day. I also set aside time to talk about love with Gu Qinan. The salary is not much earned on the construction site, but after Zhanming's calculations, applying for a student loan for tuition fees and continuing work-study after school starts, it is still enough.
Gu Qinan indulged for two weeks before he started reading. Li Teng took the initiative to contact him and recommended a lot of textbooks to him after college. Gu Qinan thought for a while, and informed Li Teng that he had determined his sexual orientation and had a boyfriend. Li Teng replied with a series of ellipses and didn't ask anything.
But after that, he still sent a lot of electronic textbooks to Gu Qinan, and told Gu Qinan that now they are seniors and juniors again.
Li Teng was very straightforward and smart, and rationally returned to the relationship between ordinary seniors and juniors.
After completing the application form, Class 5 made an appointment for a party. Almost the entire class attended, including Gu Qinan and the other four. I decided to go to a popular Internet celebrity villa in Nanzhou for barbecue.
The villa is on the outskirts of the city, it is quite far, and the subway has to be transferred to the bus. They arrived in the afternoon, had a buffet barbecue for dinner, sang songs afterward, and stayed in the villa for one night.
The environment of the villa is very good, surrounded by greenery. The fifth class occupies a small platform halfway up the mountain for barbecue, and you can also see the sea and the lights in the distance.
There were many people in class 5, and several stoves were rented, and there were a group of people in front of each stove. Everyone has their own division of labor, some wash the vegetables, some brush the marinated sauce for chicken wings and meat skewers, and some are responsible for burning the charcoal.
The four of Gu Qinan were naturally together, Zhan Ming assigned everyone to work, but Gu Qinan did not. Gu Qinan asked, "What about me?"
Zhan Ming said, "Just stand there obediently and watch me bake something."
Gu Qinan nodded: "Oh."
Lin Xiaobin, who was skewering beef on the bamboo skewers, sighed, "Why? How can Younger No. 1 stand and don't work? Can he still be Younger Brother No. 1 if he doesn't work?"
Wu Yuan motioned for him to shut up.
Gu Qinan said consciously, "I can help!"
Zhan Ming casually ordered: "Then go pick up some branches and leaves, this charcoal is not easy to get."
Walking out of the small platform, it is a mountain road paved with stone slabs, and there are branches and leaves everywhere along the road. Gu Qinan stepped out of the small platform and bent down to pick up some dry branches. Thinking that other people might need it, he wanted to pick up a little more, and unknowingly walked a dozen meters forward.
Because the trees are surrounded by trees and the mountain road is tortuous, each small platform cannot be seen from each other. Gu Qinan walked more than ten meters, picked up a bunch of twigs, and looked up to see another small platform in front of him.
The enemy's road is narrow, and it is the people from the experimental class of No. 1 Middle School who are grilling on it.
The other party also saw him, and they were both stunned.
It's not surprising to meet, this villa has been very popular recently. Several public accounts of eating, drinking and playing in Nanzhou City have pushed countless times, saying that the air here is fresh, the sea can be seen halfway up the mountain, and the stars and lights are a little bit more romantic at night. And recently introduced student discounts.
Qiu Ranying's class had already been here and said it was fun.
I am afraid that many high school graduates in Nanzhou will come here to play.
There are not many people in the experimental class, only about ten. Gu Qinan took a cursory glance and found that there was no trash like Lin Shida, but all those present were those who had bullied and ridiculed him.
He remembered it clearly.
Haven't seen each other for over a year and everyone has changed more or less.
But Gu Qinan still clearly remembers each of them, and even what they did and said, he can still remember.
Gu Qinan's first reaction was to turn around and walk away. Before he could move, someone over there snorted coldly and said, "My God, look, who is this?"
"The first math genius in a single subject." Someone immediately interfaced.
Gu Qinan stopped, he was too familiar with this sarcastic tone.
He scored full marks in mathematics in the college entrance examination, ranking first in the city for a single subject.
The day the results came out, the local education news reported.
His overall score is also good, and he must go to B major. These people must know it, and the tone is so sour.
"Is he a criminal genius? You must be the one who ruined our classroom and affected our exams! Lin Shida has been hurt by you, how dare you appear in front of us?" someone said.
Gu Qinan wanted to laugh when he heard it, and he did laugh out loud.
He was glad to hear that it affected their exams.
Someone was immediately annoyed: "What are you laughing at?!"
Gu Qinan raised his eyebrows and replied, "It's really ugly to laugh at the face of a loser."
Immediately someone raised their fist: "Fuck you, I'll beat you to death! Don't think we dare not beat you, just what you did in the experimental class, beat you a thousand times and you won't be relieved!"
After the paint splash incident, Gu Qinan never went to inquire about what happened to the group of people in the experimental class, whether they were hit or affected.
He doesn't care about them anymore.
But at this moment, he felt very happy to hear that they seemed to be doing poorly in the exam.
After all, he was only a minor, not a saint.
What Gu Qinan didn't know was that after the incident of splashing paint, the entire classroom of the experimental class was repainted. Most parents object to students continuing to attend classes in newly painted classrooms as toxic and unhealthy. However, every classroom in the teaching building of No. 1 Middle School was full, and the empty classrooms could not be moved at any time. Had to change the experimental class to the spare laboratory in the science and technology building. The location of the laboratory is remote, the age is old, and it is far from the third grade teaching building. Teachers complain about the inconvenience of going back and forth from the office.
The people in the experimental class, who were originally the favored ones, were the most watched class in the whole grade, and enjoyed the classroom with the best conditions next to the office. In the end, they retreated to a remote corner of the campus as if they were thrown into the cold palace.
Away from the entire third year of high school, he lives alone in his own class.
Some students were under great study pressure and were frightened by the red paint, and it didn't take long for some students to apply for withdrawal from the experimental class. By the second semester of the third year of high school, there were only about twenty people left in the entire experimental class.
This session of the college entrance examination was the worst in the history of No. 1 High School for the experimental class.
And Lin Shida, for some reason, has been in very poor condition, and finally didn't even get on 211.
They firmly believed that it was all due to Gu Qinan.
If there were no paint splashes, the experimental class would not have been affected so badly.
Gu Qinan is no longer the fifteen-year-old child, not the child who was so saddened by his classmates that he didn't know what to do.
Gu Qinan said calmly: "You didn't do well in the test, it's because your brains are not good, what does it have to do with me? Also, I didn't do anything in the experimental class. Before you slander others, please show evidence, okay?"
"Did you slander yourself clearly?!" Someone shouted, and threw the things in their hands at Gu Qinan.
Gu Qinan didn't react, he was hit in the shoulder, and it hurt a little.
He looked down and saw a lighter for a fire.
Gu Qinan raised his head: "Are you sick?"
He walked over and smashed the branch in his hand at the people in the experimental class.
Several girls screamed, and several boys walked towards him.
Gu Qinan raised his foot and kicked over their barbecue. The barbecue had just been lit, and a few pieces of charcoal had already burned red, and sparks were flying everywhere. Those boys didn't expect Gu Qinan to be so ruthless, they were afraid of being splashed by sparks, so they fled in all directions.
Gu Qinan didn't let go of a single one, kicked over all three barbecue grills, and overturned all their ingredients on the table. The floor is full of overturned chicken wings, beef, vegetables, and charcoal.
Messy, messy.
The girls in the experimental class kept screaming and shouting, "Gu Qinan, you are crazy!"
Several boys were mad and shouted, "Gu Qinan, I'll kill you!"
Gu Qinan looked at the mess on the ground with satisfaction, and said coldly, "You hit me? I'm not afraid, don't run, you bully me, and I ask me to hit you at the same table."
After speaking, Gu Qinan shouted loudly: "Brother Zhan! Brother Zhan! Someone is going to hit me!"
Zhan Ming and the others were just over a dozen meters away, and immediately heard Gu Qinan's call clearly. In less than thirty seconds, Zhan Ming, Lin Xiaobin, and Wu Yuan ran over, followed by a dozen or so boys from Class 5.
Although the three of Zhan Ming studied hard for a year, their school domineering spirit did not diminish.
The three stood beside Gu Qinan and asked, "Who is going to hit you?"
Gu Qinan said, "People from the experimental class of No. 1 Middle School."
The three of Zhan Ming immediately understood that this was the enemy's road narrow.
Zhan Ming squeezed his fist and asked again, "Who wants to beat Gu Qinan?"
A few boys in the experimental class looked at Zhan Ming's size and were stunned. Not to mention that there are more than a dozen people behind Zhan Ming, who may not be able to fight single-handedly, not to mention group fights.
Someone argued a few words: "He kicked our grill over..."
Zhan Ming looked at it, picked up a bottle of mineral water that had been overturned from the ground, unscrewed the cap, and poured it on the charcoal one by one, saying, "How dangerous, the charcoal is still burning, and it will not be good to cause a fire."
As he spoke, he wetted all the charcoal.
The popularity of the experimental class was flushed, knowing that there was no hope of barbecue, and it was impossible to even roast a grain of corn.
"You lose money!" someone shouted.
Gu Qinan said, "You asked for it by yourself. Who told you to trouble me first? Why don't you call the police, it will be more fair and just."
Call the police
The people in the experimental class thought Gu Qinan was crazy.
They're out there to play and relax, not to mess with lunatics.
Gu Qinan said again: "Don't call the police? Then you'd better go far away, because I think you are very annoying. If I see you in the future, I will bully you once."
Gu Qinan squeezed out a polite smile.
Zhan Ming glanced around and asked, "Aren't you going yet?"
The people in the experimental class dared not speak out, and in the end they could only leave with their tails tucked in.
The people in Class 5 couldn't understand what this was about. Zhan Ming was present and didn't dare to ask Gu Qinan, so they all quickly dispersed.
Wu Yuan looked at Gu Qinan's expression, and dragged Lin Xiaobin, who was confused, and left.
Gu Qinan stood there, looking at the mess on the ground, silent.
Zhan Ming walked over and touched his hair.
Gu Qinan said softly, "It feels so good to be a fox and a tiger."
Zhan Ming walked up to him and looked down at him.
It was getting dark, and the lights on the small platform came on.
Star-like light strips hang all over the small platform.
A little light rippling gently in Gu Qinan's eyes, like a boat swaying in the water.
Gu Qinan blinked and looked at Zhan Ming, his voice soft like the thin mist in a summer night.
"Brother Zhan, I found that I am no longer afraid of them. I am not afraid of their eyes, their words, or their actions. I have also put everything down in the First Middle School, not because I forgave them, but I still hate them. ."
Gu Qinan stepped forward, hugged Zhan Ming, and buried his face in Zhan Ming's arms.
"I don't care about them anymore, because I have people who care more, because I have better friends, and have a lot of happy things and happy memories."
Zhan Ming hugged him tightly, lowered his head and said in his ear, "Happy high school graduation."
Gu Qinan's high school life is over.
I have experienced a lot of high school life, a very painful high school life, and later a very happy high school life.
It's a perfect end to this summer.
He's got new best friends, he's got the best boyfriend in the world, and he's happy.
All the sadness, sadness, fear is over.
They didn't disappear, they stayed in his heart forever.
But they are just past.
Covered by new happiness, joy, beauty.
They are rotten branches and leaves, but on top of that, flowers grow.
