Xie Jiang didn't go to Lin Xiaotian, which was beyond Jane's expectations. After all, everyone in the class knew that Lin Xiaotian and Gu Yan were like brothers, and they would usually find their best friends to do such things.
"Have any difficulties?" Xie Jiang raised his eyebrows and asked.
Jian Jie pushed the opened file to Xie Jiang, shook his head and said, "I don't want to."
Xie Jiang became interested, so he crossed his hands on his chest and said with interest: "I see that you and Gu Yan are having a good time together. By the way, his handwriting is pretty good recently, and he can barely fill in the blanks in the Zhou Kao." Fill it out."
"It's better to find him in person for this kind of thing. It's just that we are more familiar with each other, but everyone has things they don't want to say and things they don't want others to know. I don't want to touch these things about Gu Yan that he doesn't like. I'm willing to say it." Jian Jie said unhurriedly.
Xie Jiang's fingers unconsciously nodded his arms, and seeing Jian Jie's calm expression, he grinned: "I didn't look for Lin Xiaotian because they were too familiar, and I looked for you because you two are so familiar, okay... I see, you go back to class."
Jane stood up.
"Please tell Lin Xiaotian for me that if Gu Yan doesn't come today, he won't ask for leave. I will deduct their points together later, and let him bring Gu Yan to school." Xie Jiang said.
"Um."
When returning to the classroom, Teacher Wang spoke impassionedly on the podium, and when she saw Jian Jie coming in, she almost shed tears of excitement.
Jane sat quietly on the seat, and turned to look in the direction of Gu Yan's table.
Zhang Jie tore off a piece of bread with his hand in the table pocket, and quickly stuffed it into his mouth when Teacher Wang turned his head. Lin Xiaotian happened to meet Jian Jie's eyes across Zhang Jie.
"Jane Jie—" Old Wang called out.
Jane Jie turned her head and looked at Lao Wang under the eyes of several classmates.
Old Wang pointed to the blackboard: "Come up and do the next question."
Jane Jie sighed and stepped onto the podium.
This question is not difficult, and Jian Jie has the habit of reviewing homework after class. After reading the question carefully, Jian Jie slowly began to write down Lao Wang's handwriting.
For the exercises in the textbooks, the school teachers basically draw inferences from one instance, and Jian Jie wrote more than half of it, but Lao Wang suddenly told Jian Jie to stop writing: "Okay, just write here... come, let me see, the answer will come out, which one?" Those who don’t study don’t know how to do it, just you, the bread-eating ones below! Come up and write.”
Zhang Jie ate with bread crumbs around his mouth, and amidst the laughter, he turned into a bread pig with a red face, and walked up to the podium in embarrassment.
Sitting back in her seat, Jian Jie lowered her head and was about to flip through the book, when she suddenly saw a crumpled note on the textbook.
Apart from Gu Yan, Lin Xiaotian was the only one who could pass notes to him during class.
I don't know when I joined the not-not-study team, Jian Jie raised the corner of her mouth, and opened the note that Lin Xiaotian gave him with great interest. The cursive characters on it were exactly the same as Gu Yan, so Jian Jie could tell the difference.
— Going to find Gu Yan after school
Jian Jie thought for a while, then turned her head and nodded to Lin Xiaotian.
—
This seems to be the first time that Jane is looking forward to the end of school so much. The dark study pressure makes the students look sluggish after school. The flowers of the motherland will be destroyed by these complicated studies. Take the tougher exam.
Lin Xiaotian was the first to put away the bag, the teacher stepped out of the classroom, and he ran to Jane's desk: "Let's go!"
Jian Jie took his time and did not move in a hurry.
"Hurry up." Lin Xiaotian pulled Jane Jie's bag and put it on his back with longing for not seeing each other for a day.
Following behind the furious Lin Xiaotian, Jian Jie quickened her pace slightly, and at the corner of the stairs, a person who didn't pay attention collided with the person who was going upstairs.
"Grass!" The man covered his nose and cursed loudly.
Jian Jie, who was hit on the chest, apologized softly, passed the man and was about to leave, but he didn't expect the man to grab Jane's sleeve relentlessly.
"What about you, which class is so arrogant?"
Jian Jie frowned, and the hand on his wrist exerted some strength, which made him feel a burst of pain.
Looking up at the man's face, Jane felt for a moment that he had seen that man before.
Seeing that Jian Jie didn't speak, the man was even more unwilling, and shouted: "Hey, you are dumb, will you apologize?"
"What's wrong?"
After running down first, Lin Xiaotian heard the movement and came forward again. When he saw Jian Jie whose wrist was being grabbed, he immediately exploded. He flew up and pushed the man away: "What the hell are you doing!"
The man was pushed back by Lin Xiaotian and almost rolled down the stairs. After standing still and seeing the person who pushed him clearly, he sneered: "Lin Xiaotian from class seven, are you so awesome?"
"That's awesome." Lin Xiaotian was carrying two schoolbags, standing between Jian Jie and that person: "You don't follow Liang Qi, why are you so crazy here?"
"Grass!" Liang Qi's follower ate a mouthful of dirt, unable to hold back his face: "Do you want to fight?"
Jian Jie heard Lin Xiaotian mention Liang Qi, and glanced at Liang Qi's servant who was burning with anger. Jian Jie walked to Lin Xiaotian's side, turned sideways and slightly put Lin Xiaotian aside, and then Apologize to Liang Qi's follower.
"No, what are you apologizing for?" Lin Xiaotian grabbed Jane Jie.
"I hit him." Jane said.
"See? You're trying to be arrogant." Liang Qi's follower folded his hands on his chest and said triumphantly, "If you bump into me, you have to apologize."
Lin Xiaotian couldn't swallow this breath, and didn't want to talk unreasonably to the unreasonable, so he could only swallow his breath and slashed Liang Qi's follower.
"Let's go." Lin Xiaotian didn't look back.
"Remember! My name is Miao Zhengnan!" Miao Zhengnan poked Jian Jie's arm several times while talking, "Don't think this is over."
Jian Jie remained silent, ignoring Miao Zhengnan's smug face, and followed Lin Xiaotian's footsteps.
—
Lin Xiaotian looked like he was eating a turtle, his ears were steaming like a red-hot teapot: "Whose fucking grandson is so uneducated!"
Looking at Lin Xiaotian who was swearing, Jian Jie waited quietly beside the station: "Which bus?"
"Jane Jie, don't tell Gu Yan about this, do you hear me?" As if thinking of something, Lin Xiaotian suddenly grabbed Jian Jie's arm solemnly, exerted a little force on his fingers, and repeatedly urged: "Sure, do you hear me? "
Jane nodded and responded.
Lin Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned back against the street sign: "Are you going home early today?"
"No need." Jane Jie sent the edited message to Jane's mother without raising her eyelids.
"That's just right—the bus is here!" Lin Xiaotian pointed to the No. 99 bus bound for Huayuan District in the distance: "Go to the night market at night!"
Before Jian Jie could ask "What night market?", he was caught in the middle of people swarming into the car.
The bus was shaking all the way, Jane heard the name of the station in the car full of suffocating smell, passed an older aunt, and almost popped out of the car with Lin Xiaotian the moment the back door opened.
"Don't ask random questions later." Lin Xiaotian took a step forward and led Jian Jie forward.
The current situation made Jane inexplicably uneasy. He seemed to want to open a novel door. Behind the door was Gu Yan, who was completely unknown.
The community where Gu Yan's house is located is older than Jane Jie imagined. There is no elevator, and when you step on the stairs when you step on it, you can still raise dust. When you go up to the sixth floor, Jane has already started to breathe heavily.
Lin Xiaotian knocked on the door on the left with familiarity, the old rusty door made a crisp sound, within a few seconds, accompanied by footsteps inside the door, Gu Yan opened the door with swollen eyelids, saw Lin Xiaotian When Jane was in the sky behind him, there was an obvious difference on his face.
"Who is it?"
A female voice came from inside the door, Lin Xiaotian punched Gu Yan on the shoulder, opened his mouth and shouted: "Auntie—it's me, smile!"
"How grown up..." Gu Yan had no expression on his face, watching Lin Xiaotian enter the room, he raised the corners of his mouth to Jane in a restrained manner: "Here we come..."
Jane Jie had something to say in her throat, but she didn't say it.
"Come in." Gu Yan said.
Jian Jie nodded, passed Gu Yan's sideways body, and entered the room.
There was a woman sitting in a wheelchair in the middle of the living room, her eyebrows and eyes were very similar to Gu Yan's, and she could think of a beauty when she was young.
Gu Li and Lin Xiaotian said a few words, then turned around and saw Jane Jie.
After being slightly stunned, he smiled at Jian Jie: "It's Gu Yan's friend, it's the first time we've met."
"Hello, Auntie." Jane Jie greeted her.
Gu Li looked at Jian Jie and Gu Yan, just smiled and said nothing.
—
Winter is the longest season among the four seasons, there is no lush greenery, only cold wind and bleak wind. When Jane drove back to the community and passed the security reception room at the gate, she saw the red lanterns that had been hung high in advance.
It seemed that everyone was immersed in the upcoming New Year. Jane Jie lay on the steering wheel. After closing her eyes, Jane's mother's resolute expression and Gu Yan's melancholy and indifferent attitude made Jane's heart ache.
The palms and backs of his hands were full of flesh, and he didn't want to make a choice.
After more than ten minutes, Jian Jie fumbled for the phone, found Lin Xiaotian's number in the address book, and pressed it.
There was a busy tone on the phone, and Jane made a second call.
It seems that the signal is not good, and the second call did not connect.
The stubborn Jane Jie didn't want to give up just like that. After thinking about it, Jane Jie started the car again, and the thoughts from the depths of his heart reached his brain.
He wanted to see Gu Yan as soon as possible more than ever. The feeling that he knew where the person he missed but couldn't see him for various reasons drove him crazy.
Perhaps the appearance of Jian's mother today gave him confidence, Jian Jie sighed secretly, and entered the address of Lin Xiaotian Clubhouse in the navigation.
He didn't know if Gu Yan would avoid him, but he also knew that if he didn't go to Gu Yan, the fate between him and Gu Yan would be broken in the hospital where they met for the last time.
He has too many things to ask.
Jian Jie gripped the steering wheel with both hands, her eyes were reddish.
— Lin Xiaotian put the phone that had been vibrating for a long time on the table in front of him, frowning with a cigarette in his mouth, Gu Yan, who was sitting on the sofa not far away, lowered his head and played with the old mobile phone that Lin Xiaotian eliminated for him, with great interest.
"Times are changing so fast, mobile phones are smart, do you still use Penguin?" Gu Yan asked.
"It's been a long time since I played, and now I use WeChat, Ali's father's quick payment... Do you still use cash?" Lin Xiaotian silently rolled his eyes and lit a cigarette: Jane called me, you really don't care pick up? "
"Why call me?" Gu Yan fiddled with the WeChat on his phone: "You know my attitude."
"I know shit." Lin Xiaotian said, taking advantage of Gu Yan's inattention, his fingers were flying, and he sneaked a message to Jian Jie like a thief.
