Mu Shanshan and the others stood there, looking at each other, but no one dared to say anything. The fight on the basketball court had completely dispelled their idea of using force to solve the problem. Moreover, there were more people watching on the shore this time than last time, and Wen Liang was no longer the cowardly boy who allowed himself to be bullied and insulted. He grew up in an incredible way and quickly became a big tree that attracted people's attention. Under the shadow of the branches and leaves, forces of all sizes began to surround him. For example, Liu Zhihe, Xu Yao...
Gu Wenyuan sat on the ground without getting up. When he heard Wen Liang's half-threatening words, he suddenly raised his head. His pale face had lost its former radiance, and his eyes were full of jealousy. He didn't look like the elegant gentleman he usually was.
Gu Wenyuan, only by entering his world, stripping off his disguise, and hurting his heart, can you see the real him, a hypocritical, vicious, self-righteous person who will ultimately have no forgiving heart.
The smile on Wen Liang's face gradually disappeared. He picked up the wooden paddle at his feet, held the wooden handle with his right hand, and placed the paddle blade upside down in the sand. As his feet moved, it left a shallow but hideous mark.
"one!"
Mu Shanshan finally came to his senses and surrounded Gu Wenyuan with his men. He said loudly, "Let's talk it over. Calm down and don't be impulsive!"
If he were alone, Mu Shanshan would never say a word of surrender, but since Gu Wenyuan was there, he had no choice but to do so.
"two!"
Wen Liang sneered and walked very slowly. The wooden paddle made a "hissing" sound as it scratched through the sand, making the already condensed air even more dull and eerie.
Liu Zhihe's palms were sweating. For people like them, fighting was a small matter, but the relationship between Gu Wenyuan and Wen Liang was obviously not the dirty relationship between ordinary students. If they were not careful, there might be disastrous consequences.
In Liu Zhihe's heart, Wen Liang is a very special person. Sometimes he is gentle and kind, his words and deeds make people feel like spring breeze, and sometimes he is cruel and ruthless, and he can make people feel life and death in his conversation. He will make you feel close to him, you can be so casual that you forget yourself, laugh and play as much as you want, and sometimes he is unattainable, as if you are from two different worlds. You can see his face and hear his laughter, but you can never touch his heart, you only feel that he is unfathomable and difficult to understand.
But such a person is the only brother recognized by Liu Zhihe!
In everyone's high school years, there will be one or a group of people who support each other and go forward together, going through the fulfilling, absurd, tearful and laughing youth years that will be engraved in your life. There is a saying that is passed down from mouth to mouth: In this season, you can't find flowers, smell fragrance, touch the starry sky, or touch the future, but you will never forget those days when you skipped classes during the day, climbed over the wall at night, bragged and chatted, smoked and drank, looked at her back with sadness, and sang loudly on the top of the mountain. There will always be brothers by your side!
In this season, you may not find a lover to spend your life with, but you can find a brother to trust for life!
Liu Zhihe stared at Wen Liang's back, let out a long breath, patted his slightly stiff face, picked up the wooden paddle from the ground, stopped Zhang Song and others, and followed him up.
The remaining matters have nothing to do with Zhang Song and the others!
Wen Liang tightened his right hand, his eyes turned cold, and he was about to shout three. Gu Wenyuan stood up, parted the crowd and walked to Wen Liang, pointed his finger at his nose and tapped him three times, then laughed in anger and said, "Wen Liang, wait!"
There were still endless shouts from the other side of the river. The sounds of "Swim, swim, swim!" echoed back and forth on the lake. Gu Wenyuan looked at the dark crowd with a complicated expression, but did not find the girl.
He suddenly turned around, waved his hands in the air, and shouted fiercely: "Swim, swim back!"
The island in the middle of the lake is not really in the center of the lake. It takes a long straight line from the dock to get there. If you go directly into the water from the other side, it is only about 100 to 200 meters to the shore. For these children who grew up in Qingzhou, it only takes a few minutes and is not a big deal.
But this is such a huge loss of face!
Mu Shanshan's face was gloomy, and he stared at Wen Liang with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted rudely by Gu Wenyuan: "Shut up, don't you think you haven't lost face enough?"
Yuan Ye had been standing next to Mu Shanshan. Seeing that everyone was reluctant to go into the water, he suddenly thought of the boat collision that could be used as an excuse, saying that an accident had occurred and the competition was voided. With the mentality of making up for his crime, he said tremblingly, "Actually..."
Before he could finish his words, Mu Shanshan slapped him in the face and cursed, "Actually, if you weren't a loser, this wouldn't have happened. Go to hell, you dare to say a word to me!"
As he said this, he kicked Yuan Ye in the stomach again, causing his head to be broken and bleeding. He hid far behind the crowd and dared not show his head again.
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Please come in, classmates."
Mu Shanshan turned around and walked into the water. The others knew that this was the only way. Either they go into the water themselves and get a reputation of being an honest man who accepts defeat, or they get beaten up by Wen Liang and thrown into the water, where they will be pointed at by others and called shameless. Between two evils, they have to choose the lesser of two evils. This is the only way!
Yes, at the beginning I was determined to beat Wen Liang up, but didn’t I know how good he was at fighting
Several people jumped into the water one after another. Wen Liang glared at Gu Wenyuan and said, "Student Gu, it's your turn now. What? You want me to see you off?"
Gu Wenyuan's lips moved but he didn't say anything. Red Monkey said angrily, "Don't be so arrogant. Isn't it stipulated that there should be six people in the competition? I am not a member of the team. I will swim for him!"
Wen Liang shook his head and said calmly: "Whoever owes the debt should pay it back. I am a bit mercenary and like to haggle over small details. I'm sorry!"
The red monkey finally got angry and said, "Wenyuan has only been learning for a short time and is not very good at it yet. Don't go too far!"
Wen Liang then remembered that at the award ceremony for the top ten Communist Youth League members, Gu Wenyuan stopped him and provoked him. Xu Yao came to his rescue and seemed to have mentioned that Gu Wenyuan couldn't swim. It seemed that in the past few months, Master Gu couldn't stand being looked down upon by Xu Yao in person, so he learned to swim for a while. No matter how courageous he was today, he wanted to compete in the water.
Unfortunately, the boat capsized and he fell into the water just now, which scared him out of his wits. No wonder he looked pale after getting ashore and didn't look as high-spirited as before.
Looking at the two people in front of him, Wen Liang felt that the world was so ironic. When did a person like Gu Wenyuan know what "going too far" meant? He felt indignant and laughed loudly towards the sky: "Going too far? Hearing this from you, even the Buddha would die of laughter!" He suddenly grabbed Gu Wenyuan's wrist while laughing and walked towards the lake.
Just as the red monkey was about to pounce, Liu Zhihe blocked it with a wooden paddle. Gu Wenyuan stumbled a few steps, and a strong force came from behind his buttocks, and his body flew up and fell into the water, and he couldn't help but scream.
Wen Liang retracted his foot and smiled: "Goodbye, I won't see you off!"
Mu Shanshan quickly supported Gu Wenyuan. They were both wearing life jackets, so staying in the water was not dangerous except for being a little cold. Gu Wenyuan wiped the water off his face, his wet hair stuck to his brows, and the resentment in his eyes was clearly visible.
"Walk!"
At Gu Wenyuan's command, Mu Shanshan and another person took him and everyone turned around and swam towards the shore.
Wenliang, just wait!
Naturally, the red monkey did not dare to stay on the island for long, and it was impossible to ask him to row the boat back. If he did not share the hardships at this time, where would he have a foothold in the future? He had no choice but to jump into the water and chase after the people in front.
After three or four minutes, several people came ashore, and the crowd on the shore burst into warm applause. The high school students were quite kind, and they did not despise the losers for having the courage to swim back, but instead gave them applause generously.
But to Gu Wenyuan, who always thought highly of himself, this applause was undoubtedly like a loud slap in the face! In his life, he only needed the glory of the winner, not the pity of the loser!
Soon, a little follower took off his coat and put it on a few people. They were so cold that their teeth chattered. There was no way they could stay here for another second. Gu Wenyuan was not in the mood to listen to the comfort of the people around him, and soon disappeared in the distance!
Liu Zhihe walked over, patted Wen Liang's shoulder who had been standing by the lake, and whispered, "Is it still impossible to avoid becoming mortal enemies?"
Wen Liang looked at the red sun in the water and chuckled, "You don't understand, my mortal enemy is not just Gu Wenyuan!"
Yes, I will leave you with nothing, not only you, but also the mountain behind you that seems unreachable!
Xu Yao has been standing in the distance, looking at the sixteen-year-old boy, with a gentle look in her shining eyes. She rarely shows this expression in front of Wen Liang, only like now, secretly, from a distance, your back is my tenderness.
The seven people rowed two boats back to the dock. Ji Su, Ning Xiaoning, Ren Yi, Ye Meng and others had been waiting on the side and immediately rushed over. The girls hugged Xu Yao and jumped up and down, and the boys patted each other on the shoulders and said generous words. All the classmates applauded collectively, thanking them for such a wonderful game, which was more than twice as enthusiastic as the welcome for Gu Wenyuan and others just now.
The winner has the glory that belongs to the winner!
The sun was setting, and it was finally time for the music to end and the students who had gone to the county town to play returned one after another. Wen Liang asked Liu Zhihe to arrange for the participants to have a big meal in the city, as he had other important matters to attend to, so he would not go back.
Liu Zhihe led his men away, leaving the three girls behind. Wen Liang spread his hands and said with a smile, "I have something to do tomorrow, so I won't be back today. Hurry up and get in the car, or you'll end up on the street and get eaten by the big bad wolf!"
Ning Xiaoning frowned and said, "What are you going to do? I have something important to tell you on my way back... Tell me the truth, let me hear it, is it more important than my business?"
Wen Liang couldn't do anything about her, so he smiled bitterly and said, "It's nothing serious, I just plan to visit a mineral water factory tomorrow...
Ning Xiaoning's eyes lit up immediately. Based on her understanding of Wen Liang, he would never visit a factory for no reason. He must have other plans. With a thought, she grabbed Xu Yao's hand and said, "We won't leave tonight. We have to keep an eye on him. This guy is a bad guy. He might be doing something unspeakable!"
Xu Yao didn't want to interfere with any of Wen Liang's decisions, but she couldn't refuse Ning Xiaoning's request, so she had to pull Ji Su and said, "Su Su, why don't you stay too, so we can talk together?"
