The hug in the toilet didn't feel particularly good, although they hugged very hard, but before anyone else came in, Kou Chen let go.
"This place really isn't very romantic." He sighed.
"The breath of life is still very good." Huo Ran said.
Kou Chen laughed, went to the sink to look in the mirror and straightened his hair: "Let's go, back to the classroom, I want to know how you all did in the exam."
"I should be fine this time." Huo Ran said.
"Is there a reward for going back?" Kou Chen asked.
"No," Huo Ran laughed, "I didn't do well in the test anyway, and no one would say anything about me."
"I really envy your family's feeling of 'you're happy'." Kou Chen clicked his tongue.
"No," Huo Ran thought for a while, "actually I sometimes want them to scold me."
"That's a bit underwhelming," Kou Chen said, "why not eat minced meat."
"It's very academic now," Huo Ran said.
"I am." Kou Chen said.
"This spirit is still very good." Huo Ran nodded.
The group of seven really made a lot of progress this time, and they were praised by teachers in various subjects. Except for Wei Chaoren, who failed in mathematics, everyone passed.
This was what Kou Chen had expected. He was the one who had the most trouble with his grades in the previous group. He was able to pass, and no one else would have any problems.
When he heard the praise, Kou Chen felt no less joy in his heart than when he received a letter of praise from the police.
After all the papers were distributed, the first thing he looked at was English. He wanted to see where Kou Er Er got the two points.
"It's probably here," Huo Ran looked beside him, "I made a mistake and ticked a tick here."
"Well," Kou Chen nodded, "I wrote the s at the beginning, but when I checked it later, I thought it was wrong and changed it again."
"Next time, you can change it after you have written it. You just force it on the top. If you didn't have your dad to check the papers, wouldn't you fail?" Huo Ran said.
"I'm not inexperienced in exams," Kou Chen said. "I used to revise exams. It would be nice if I could scrape together something to fill in."
When they packed up and left the dormitory, the group of seven were beaming with joy, thinking that they had already received a notice from Peking University to report.
"Are you two going to play?" Jiang Lei asked Huo Ran.
"Yeah." Huo Ran nodded.
"How long?" Jiang Lei asked.
"Two days. I'm afraid the chickens won't get used to it after a long time. Now it's hot and it's tiring to ride a bicycle." Huo Ran said.
"Then let's meet again when we come back," Jiang Lei said, "Radish said to go to the beach."
"Okay," Huo Ran looked at the THXD on the bracelet, the sea licking operation can begin now, he smiled, "Would you like to record the taste of sea water?"
"Save the video," Wei Chaoren said, "zhifan can cut it."
"What?" Xu Zhifan looked at him.
"He can learn if he doesn't," Xu Chuan said. "In the future, these things can be handed over to him."
"Can you guys have some awareness that I shouldn't have been hanging out with you," Xu Zhifan said with a smile, "Lao Yuan said that I dropped five places in the rankings this time."
"Fuck," Jiang Lei was stunned, "really?"
"Really." Xu Zhifan nodded painfully.
"It's so sad," Xu Chuan held his right hand, "Zhifan."
"Grief!" Jiang Lei took his left hand.
Then several people walked over, took his hand, wrist and arm, and shook it with a dignified expression.
"But we won't let you go." Huo Ran said.
"Dare to run and break your leg!" Kou Chen glared at him with a cold face.
The gate of the school is full of cars and parents who come to pick up people. The group of seven usually go home by themselves most of the time. Today, there are a lot of things, and they have already told the family about their test results. Today, the parents are very complete.
A group of people called each other uncle and auntie so funny that their faces almost froze.
However, no one from Huo Ran's family came to pick him up, and Kou Chen insisted on taking him back, so Huo Ran told his father not to come, and after saying goodbye to everyone, he got into Kou's second child's car.
When the rear door was opened, a fluffy black and white head suddenly came close.
Ha ha ha ha.
"Shuai..." Huo Ran didn't even have time to say hello, but Shuaishuai licked his face with his tongue, and he jumped back several steps, "Hey! Take care of your stupid dog! "
"Brother Hug!" Kou Chen opened his arms, Shuaishuai kicked his legs from the car and threw himself on top of him.
He hugged Shuai Shuai and rubbed his hair vigorously.
Huo Ran sighed, wiped his face with a piece of paper, and looked at the handsome hair flying in the sun, as well as the eyes of the girls next to him.
"Get in the car," Huo Ran reminded in a low voice, "I won't be able to leave in a while!"
"Huh?" Kou Chen looked back at him.
"Shuaishuai is going to be bald!" Huo Ran pushed him, "You..."
"Kou Chen! Is this the dog you always posted on your Moments!" Tang Wei ran over, "Haishuai, right?"
"Yeah." Kou Chen nodded.
"Mom—" Wu Xiaochen rushed over with his arms open, "big head—so cute—"
Only then did Kou Chen realize what Huo Rangang said.
Shuaishuai was quickly overwhelmed by the students preparing to go home at the school gate. Within two seconds, he found that the leash was no longer in his hands, and Shuaishuai was led by a group of girls to the wall next to him.
"You're called handsome?"
"So cute, so docile!"
"Your hair is so thick, handsome, are you hot?"
"You're showing your tongue, is it hot or are you laughing?"
A group of girls who are usually fierce when they talk to boys, but now they are competing with handsome and handsome.
Second child Kou lowered the car window and shouted at them, "I'll go ahead and find a place to park the car. You two grab the dog and come forward to find me."
"Ah." Kou Chen responded, then turned to look at the handsome people around him, "Fuck, can you get this back?"
"I didn't expect it," Huo Ran said, "the handsome guy Kou is not as attractive as a dog."
"In the eyes of most girls, boys are inferior to cats and dogs," Kou Chen gave him a sideways look, "It's enough to attract you, I'll take care of others."
Huo Ran smiled and said nothing.
"Kou Chen," Li Yiyi turned around and asked with a smile, "Is Shuai Shuai obedient?"
"Obey." Kou Chen said.
"Then we scratch it so comfortably, if you call it, will it still come with you?" Li Yiyi asked again.
"Yes." Kou Chen hooked the corners of his mouth.
"Then give it a try." Tang Wei suddenly became interested.
"Don't hold the collar with your hands," Kou Chen reminded her. "You are so strong that you hurt your hand in a while."
"Okay." Tang Wei let go.
Kou Chen whistled.
Shuaishuai's ears twitched, and before everyone could react, it swooped in front of Kou Chen, stood up, put its paw on Kou Chen's arm, and called twice as if asking for praise.
"Wow—" the girls exclaimed, and then took out their mobile phones.
"Go, go, go," Huo Ran poked Kou Chen's waist, "I was robbed in a while!"
"Shuai, let's go and find Dad." Kou Chen grabbed the leash, turned and ran forward with Shuai Shuai.
Huo Ran quickly followed.
Shuai Shuai was quite smart, and after running forward only fifty meters, he found Kou Er's car and called twice at the door.
"You two go up first," Huo Ran said, "I'm afraid it will lick me again."
"It misses you, it's happy to see you," Kou Chen opened the car door, pushed Shuai Shuai in, and whispered in Huo Ran's ear, "If I haven't seen you for a few days, I want to lick it too. "
"Get in the car!" Huo Ran shouted in fright.
Kou Chen laughed loudly, completely losing the coolness he had when facing girls before.
"So happy," Kou Er started the car, "How was Huo Ran doing?"
"It's okay." Huo Ran said with a smile.
"Much better than me," Kou Chen said, "but he turned out to be better than me."
"Your parents must be happy that you have made so much progress." Second child Kou said to Huo Ran.
"That's not necessarily true," Kou Chen said. "You think everyone is the same as our family. If your grades are bad, you will be killed, but your grades will improve a little."
"Why don't you want me to take it down for you?" Second child Kou looked at him from the rearview mirror.
"No need, I'll be in heaven for a while." Kou Chen clicked his tongue.
"Huo Ran," Kou said, "your parents must be happy. You didn't get good grades in the past. They didn't say it, it didn't mean they didn't care. It's just a different way. They'll be happy if you improved."
"Yeah." Huo Ran nodded vigorously.
"Are you two going to ride a bike?" Second child Kou asked again, "Is there still room to bring someone?"
"Dad?" Kou Chen stared at the back of Kou's second son's head alertly.
"No place." Huo Ran replied.
Kou Chen patted his leg in relief.
"... How many of you are going?" Kou Er asked.
"Just the two of us." Huo Ran said.
"I also want to go with a few uncles," Kou Second Brother refused to give up, "We..."
"Uncle," Huo Ran said, "usually children like us don't want to go out with the seniors unless absolutely necessary."
"Who's in the old age group! Who's getting old!" Kou Er roared, "Huo Ran, you're not my son. If you were my son, sooner or later, Kou Chen and I would chop the two of you into sausages!"
Kou Chen leaned on Shuaishuai, put his legs on Huo Ran's legs, and laughed for a long time.
When Huo Ran came home, my mother was already busy cooking in the kitchen.
"My son is back," Dad said, leaning into the kitchen, "is he almost ready to eat?"
"There are two more dishes," Mom shouted in the kitchen, "Of course—"
"Hey—" Huo Ran put down his things, went into the kitchen, and hugged his mother.
"Let's take a shower first," Mom said. "It's time for dinner after that."
"Yeah." Huo Ran nodded.
Just like before, neither his parents asked him about his grades, nor would he ask the teacher about his situation when he went to a parent-teacher meeting.
He opened the refrigerator, took a bottle of ice water, and took two sips: "I got good grades in the final exam this time."
"Really?" Dad appeared by the kitchen door.
"Is it better than last semester?" Mom asked.
"It's much better," Huo Ran smiled, "not just passing."
"Really?" Mom turned her head, and there was an unconcealed surprise on her face.
"I… look at the papers?" Dad asked.
In the past, except when they needed to sign, my parents would not ask to see his papers.
"Wait." Huo Ran turned around and went to the living room.
For some reason, he suddenly felt a little smug at this moment, a kind of joy that he wanted to show off and wanted to get slapped.
Dad followed him to the living room, sat down on the sofa, and removed the cups from the coffee table in front of him.
Huo Ran pulled a bunch of papers out of the schoolbag and handed them to him. He spread the papers on the coffee table: "Do you have anything neat in your schoolbag?"
"No," Huo Ran laughed twice, "It's a mess."
Dad didn't say a word, first looked at the grades one by one, and then turned his head to look at him: "You have been working very hard these days, I'm wondering about your mother, why don't you usually come back for homework? I was too lazy to write at the last minute, and when I got home, I finished my homework and reviewed it…”
Huo Ran smiled and said nothing.
"It's really... great progress?" Dad read the paper again, patted him on the shoulder twice, and scratched again, "Why do you suddenly have the motivation to study?"
"Let's go as well." Huo Ran scratched his hair, feeling a little embarrassed, "Kou Chen was forced by his father to make a bet that he had to pass his general subjects, or he would be sent abroad, and then he would take us together, so This time, we all did better than before. Superman failed in mathematics, but he also passed all other subjects. Oh no, Zhifan was dragged by us and dropped five places. It's a shame... We have to treat him to dinner. Just thank you."
Dad laughed and sighed softly for a long time: "Actually, your grades are fine. Of course, it's better now."
Huo Ran was silent for a while, then turned to look at his father: "I actually envy Kou Chen."
"What's wrong?" Dad turned to his side and asked seriously.
"Just... His father always scolds him and beat him when he was a child." Huo Ran said.
"...Do you want me to hit you?" Dad was a little confused.
"No, no, no," Huo Ran laughed, thinking about it and adding, "I hope you have requirements for me."
Dad looked at him and said nothing.
Huo Ran wondered if Dad understood what he meant.
After a while, Dad took the cup and took a sip of tea: "I know what you mean."
"Come on when you need to scold, and hit when you need to," Huo Ran said, "Don't be reluctant, you are too reluctant, of course!"
Halfway through he said, he quickly added: "I can't be too reluctant to be like Uncle Kou."
Dad laughed out loud and patted him on the back: "I know, I know."
"The grades have really gone up?" Mom brought out the soup from the kitchen.
"Look at it," Dad handed the paper over. "This time, their children have all gone up a lot."
Mom doesn't look at it as carefully as Dad, she just laughs while watching.
Huo Ran held his cheeks and leaned on the sofa to look at them.
Pretty proud.
After the meal, Kou Chen's phone called, urging him to ask what time he would leave tomorrow.
"Didn't you say the day after tomorrow? Don't you have to celebrate with your parents, your mother, your sister, and your prospective brother-in-law at home tomorrow that you don't have to go abroad?" Huo Ran said.
"Celebrate when you come back," Kou Chen said. "I'm cooking, making lemon duck. My dad asked you all to come over."
"… Can you cook it?" Huo Ran asked.
"Don't digress!" Kou Chen was very vigilant this time and was not led astray, "Tomorrow, go out to play! My dad took my car to the store in the morning for maintenance, and just got it back."
"Hey..." Huo Ran stretched out, "Okay, tomorrow is tomorrow, just pack up your things, don't bring anything except your pocket and the back pocket I gave you, if you can't fit it, just simplify , don't take too much, I won't help you carry it if you can't ride."
"Don't worry!" Kou Chen said, "Do you want a two-person tent?"
"Single person, double person can't fit," Huo Ran said, "Get your own tent."
"We two, sleep separately?" Kou Chen said, "Did you let Shuaishuai lick your brain?"
"I can't hold it for two people! It's too big to put away!" Huo Ran suppressed his voice.
"Okay," Kou Chen simply didn't insist, "Got it, a single person is a single person."
It was only the next day that Huo Ran knew why Kou Chen was so cooperative and obedient.
"Fuck you," Huo Ran checked the contents of his bag, "don't you bring a tent?"
"Didn't you bring it?" Kou Chen raised his eyebrows.
"What I brought is mine!" Huo Ran glared at him, "What about yours!"
"Let Shuai Shuai tear it apart." Kou Chen said, "You know, Ala and Ha, it's hard to keep things intact if you have one at home..."
"Go away." Huo Ran said, "You actually let a dog take the blame for you."
"Anyway, I don't have a tent right now." Kou Chen curled his lips.
"I have." Huo Ran said.
"No, you didn't." Kou Chen quickly grabbed his arm.
Huo Ran was deadlocked with him for a while, then gritted his teeth and stepped into the car: "Okay, today I'll let you see the effect of sleeping in a single tent for two people. Let's talk about it first, if you can't sleep well, go out and feed the mosquitoes!"
"I want to see, which mosquito dares to bite me!" Kou Chen patted the handlebar.
