After school, I waited downstairs with my schoolbag, but Jiang Hongshao hadn't come yet. Cheng Ran noticed that Xie Feibai didn't show up during the new week. He thought that since something big happened at home and he had to cooperate with the police in the follow-up investigation, he probably didn't have the mood to go to class. Maybe he would directly take the high school entrance examination or leave the city
In short, his family and his life have changed... It is said that saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Building a pagoda is a good thing for me. But thinking about the whole process, I still feel a little scared and embarrassed.
Is rebirth a responsibility? Not necessarily, I don’t want to be a hero. But sometimes, when you are at a critical juncture of an event and you have a sense of what you might do, some inner drive will force you to act.
It is indeed difficult not to have regrets in this life. When we have done our best, we can only try to make ourselves not regret not doing anything at some point in the future when we recall that we could have taken action to change the inevitable outcome of an event.
This is a very good thing, isn't it? It made me and the girl feel something noble and great that only belonged to heroism... This was also a journey that they experienced together, a journey that belonged only to the two of them and could not be matched by anyone else.
Just when Cheng Ran was standing here, a few girls came over. Cheng Ran recognized two of them who looked familiar. They seemed to be from Class 6 and Class 5. One was called Zhang Yan and the other was called Du Yuting. At this time, the girl named Du Yuting was pushed to the front and handed over a pink envelope with a blushing face.
"Cheng Ran! Our Du Yuting gave you something, please accept it! Please reply!"
After Cheng Ran took the envelope from the other person, the girl's face turned red. She held her flushed face and it seemed that a girl next to her whispered something in her ear. She punched the other person a few times. The letter had already been given away, so she quickly pushed the three girls away.
The group of girls kept laughing, and one girl turned around to remind him, "… remember to reply tomorrow!"
Needless to say, you know what this is.
To be honest, it's not that Cheng Ran has never received a love letter. It's just that Du Yuting just now is actually a relatively famous girl in Class 5. She is pretty and has been often seen in dance programs held by some schools during her three years in junior high school. She is considered an artistic girl and may be a goddess in the eyes of many people.
Cheng Ran was holding the pink letter, turned his head, and just happened to meet the figure coming down the corridor.
He tried to withdraw his hand, but it was too late. Jiang Hongshao should have seen the whole thing. She was stunned for a moment, then continued to walk down, saying, "Sorry... Someone stopped me for a while, so I tried to hurry up."
"But you seem to have gained a lot..." Jiang Hongshao glanced at his hands and smiled.
"This... Hey, it's so confusing..." Cheng Ran waved the letter in his hand, "Where are we going?"
"Over there on the playground."
Cheng Ran followed Jiang Hongshao and turned to the playground. At the other end of the spacious and empty playground, blood-red sunlight was shining from the other side of the mountain, shining on the two of them, giving them a layer of warm heat. The figures of the two people in the sunset seemed to have edges of light.
There were a few people playing football there, and from time to time you could hear the muffled sound of a football flying up into the air with the force of a big foot, which then spread into the wide environment.
Cheng Ran's memories of his former junior high school are unremarkable, because his grades were not good back then, and he actually lived a very depressing life in this middle school, wasting time during the day, and heard his parents quarreling when he got home, so he didn't have any very good memories. However, now, it seems that every little bit here has suddenly become interesting.
The holiday will start in two days, followed by a week of pre-exam holiday, and then the high school entrance examination and graduation.
Even though he was reborn, everything was still approaching as planned. The only thing that made Cheng Ran feel different was that he actually missed these days, the demolished building panels on the cultural wall, and the time they spent together. He missed the scene of them walking here together.
He didn't know whether such a scene could last forever, not in the same environment or in the same period of time, but whether it could continue even in the passage of time...
The two of them were covered in red light and shadow as they walked onto the concrete high ground stands. Standing on the stands, the plain shirt that Jiang Hongshao was wearing looked like a blooming peony flower under the red mist particles.
"How does it feel to receive a love letter..."
The girl's voice interrupted Cheng Ran's gaze on her figure.
"ah… ?"
Cheng Ran was full of questions. How do you feel when you receive love letters? Don't you have any idea about the love letters you receive? How do you usually feel
Cheng Ran thought about it and said, "I feel secretly happy."
Jiang Hongshao nodded, her eyes showing appreciation, "Honest."
"Your father didn't make things difficult for you about that matter, did he?" Cheng Ran recalled the day when Li Jingping took Jiang Hongshao away after the kidnapping case was solved.
"No... Why are you making things difficult for me? It was you who did it. I pushed it all onto you, so he's very upset with you now."
Cheng Ran: "???"
Why did you push it to me? You are really smart! Didn't you try your best to follow me at the beginning
When Cheng Ran was about to argue with her, Jiang Hongshao chuckled and pointed at the letter in his hand, "Hey, don't you want to take a look at what others said? Didn't I tell you to reply to them tomorrow? Hurry up and figure out how to accept their kindness!"
Oh, and there is this one, as expected, she heard it before...
Cheng Ran looked down at the letter in his hand and noticed that Jiang Hongshao had turned her head and was facing the playground in front of her. She was sitting on the cement bleachers, her jeans and legs straight and stretched out, a pair of women's sneakers showing her ankles, her eyes were red in the reflection, and I don't know what she was thinking. She looked decent, as if this was your business and she had nothing to do with it.
Looking at Jiang Hongshao's profile, Cheng Ran handed the letter over and said, "How about you help me take a look and summarize the general content?"
Jiang Hongshao waved her hands, "Not good..."
"Just treat it as my commission... You can push any moral issues onto me..."
As Cheng Ran spoke, he felt his hands go empty. The letter had been taken away by Jiang Hongshao between two fingers. The movement was so graceful, generous, clean and neat.
Watching Jiang Hongshao open the letter with great skill... Cheng Ran was a little confused. Didn't you just say it was not good? How come you are so skilled? You have no moral guilt when I take the blame...
Be prepared already.
"Well, the general meaning is that this girl named Du Yuting was amazed by the blackboard newspaper you made with my help, and she also felt your broken heart at the art performance... So she wanted to become friends with you to resonate with you further, but in fact, this is just an immature idea of this girl who was blinded by the temporary glory... Maybe she will soon realize the shallowness of her thinking when she wrote this letter..."
"Give it here, give it here..." Cheng Ran spread out his hands and waved, "Do people need to include such in-depth self-criticism at the end of a love letter? Do they? You must have added it in for no reason!"
Jiang Hongshao chuckled and returned the letter. "It's your turn to have a headache!"
"Actually, I think this... is Du Yuting, she's pretty, quiet and gentle... How about we go crazy and unlock a middle school romance achievement..."
Bang! A notebook hit me.
Cheng Ran and Jiang Hongshao stared at each other.
Jiang Hongshao blushed, her long eyelashes fluttered, and she looked away, "The high school entrance exam is coming soon, study hard, don't let your mind wander..."
"I was just kidding..."
"I know you're just kidding..."
"Then how did you ..."
"I just wanted to hit you."
Cheng Ran: "I...!"
"What is this?" Cheng Ran pointed at the notebook that Jiang Hongshao took out of her schoolbag.
"I've seen the grade list. Your grades in each subject..." Jiang Hongshao paused, then said with sympathy and seriousness, "It's not optimistic. Strictly speaking, it's very bad... With this grade, you can't even get into No. 2 Middle School, let alone the senior high school of No. 1 Middle School..."
What's that expression on your face? Cheng Ran looked at her serious expression. What was going on with this look of pity mixed with regret, helplessness and sadness? Do you suspect that I have a lopsided IQ
But it’s not Jiang Hongshao’s fault... Cheng Ran’s various performances, as well as the abilities displayed on the cultural wall, far exceeded Jiang Hongshao’s admiration. However, when she paid attention to her grades in various subjects, those cold data probably made her feel a contrast.
"I'm very confused. Didn't we play English Vocabulary Chain at Liu Ying's house? You performed so well... Why is your English score so poor on your report card?"
Is she trying to find a solution for herself
Cheng Ran smiled at her, "Didn't I explain it to you at the beginning? I just happened to have only read the words starting with B in the dictionary, and I only know those words when I play the game with you..."
Jiang Hongshao frowned and looked at him, "Are you telling the truth?"
For some reason, Cheng Ran wanted to know her next reaction.
Nodding, "Really... Actually, my grades are terrible. Are you disappointed?"
Jiang Hongshao reached out and touched his head, "How pitiful... I won't discriminate against you... If you don't have enough IQ, make up for it with hard work..."
Cheng Ran: “I¥%*amp;amp;amp;¥¥#!” What’s wrong with this compassionate look? What’s wrong with you!
Jiang Hongshao handed over the notebook in her hand, then opened the schoolbag she was holding and took out stacks of notebooks one after another.
Cheng Ran flipped through it roughly, and what caught his eye was the neat, beautiful, elegant and majestic handwriting... The handwriting reflects the person.
"What's this?"
"My notes, English, math, Chinese, physics, chemistry... I summarized the main points in a very simple way, not complicated, you can go back and read them one by one, if you don't understand anything, call me or come to me, I will explain it to you... I think these threads are clear enough... more or less can help you..."
Cheng Ran flipped through the notes, which were full of words, probably no less than tens of thousands of words.
Is this considered a secret recipe secretly given to myself
He turned his head and said, "These notes are the key points you marked at that time... What will you do if you give them to me? Besides, there are so many of them, and in such a short time, how can they help me?"
"It's okay with me. It will be of greater help to you. The teacher may not have been able to explain some things in a simple and easy-to-understand way. I tried to write them down in my own way in the past few days, which may make it easier for you to understand... You have missed a lot, but this is also a good thing. You can catch up quickly. Some of them are systematic and can be applied to other cases..."
Jiang Hongshao reached out and smoothed her hair. Under the red light, her face was incredibly beautiful, but her eyes showed her concern for him.
"I've heard a lot of people say that it's too late... Actually, that's wrong. There's still time, as long as you don't give up. Cheng Ran, you're not the kind of person who gives up, right?"
Jiang Hongshao said softly, "You wouldn't be willing to accept that you are smart but couldn't get into a school with a higher score... Although an ordinary school doesn't determine the success or failure of your life and future achievements, I also believe that there is no one who doesn't know you in the future... But sometimes, it is better to be in a benign environment where hundreds of boats compete with each other than a vicious environment where you just go with the flow."
"If possible, let us strive for the freedom to choose."
Looking at Jiang Hongshao in the sunset, it's really... How come even a reborn person like me feels tears welling up in my eyes after hearing these words
This girl... How could she be so cute
Just the look in her eyes...
Why is there always a trace of sadness
The extra chapter for the leader is here. I wrote it so late, my speed is really slow... Touch your breasts, am I being nice enough!
