After all the classmates had finished their self-introductions, the head teacher Xie Dingnan made a unified summary statement.

Chen Xingze yawned in the middle-aged man's boring voice.

About ten minutes later, Xie Dingnan said with a smile: "It's almost time, everyone, pack up and go to the small auditorium to attend the welcome party for new students."

In the corridor, everyone scurried forward. Chen Xingze put his hands in his pockets, his expression sullen. The sleepiness he had just cultivated hadn't dissipated, and he yawned again. There were whispers all around, the classmates met for the first time, they were unfamiliar with each other, and they communicated politely and shyly.

Oh, there may be only one exception.

Lu Hao's familiarity was beyond Chen Xingze's imagination. He kept saying this and that by Chen Xingze's side, and his excitement made outsiders really think they were best friends after a long absence.

Did they have a close relationship before? Chen Xingze tried to recall, but he couldn't gather the lazy thoughts after noon, so he could only let Lu Hao's hearty voice keep getting into his ears.

The welcome party for freshmen was equally boring. Several school leaders ignored the crowd of distressed classmates in the audience and spoke passionately about the development history of the school. Twenty minutes is enough. Next, the host invited the representative of the freshmen to speak, this year's champion, the experimental class, Qin Bo.

Qin Bo's appearance made Chen Xingze's eyelids, which were about to close, lift up slightly.

And the part where students come to the stage

"That's the champion. Sure enough, he looks like a good student. Is he a junior high school student with you? Is he a classmate? Are you familiar with it before?" . "Ah, by the way! I just remembered that I brought chewing gum, do you want to eat it?" He turned over his pocket.

It should have been You Xiaolin who was standing on the stage now, Chen Xingze, who completely ignored Lu Hao, frowned and thought.

He knew that although You Xiaolin was an introvert, he was a very competitive person with super high self-esteem. At the beginning, Yutian Middle School had high hopes and waived all expenses, but in the end, he lost to this person on stage. I don't know how uncomfortable he would feel.

I'd love to see him...

It may be that the willpower accumulated over the past year was too strong, and the Pygmalion effect suddenly came true. As soon as Chen Xingze had the idea of seeing You Xiaolin, his eyes caught on a corner that he hadn't noticed before. When he first entered the small auditorium, Chen Xingze searched for a long time in the first class area, but there was no sign of You Xiaolin, but he did not expect to find him at the side.

Although he only saw his back in the gap in the crowd, Chen Xingze recognized him in an instant. That snow-white slender neck, jet-black hair, slightly drooping head... He seems to have grown a bit.

Chen Xingze's heart beat faster. How on earth did he convince himself not to contact him for a year? Coming here to study high school was the wisest decision he had ever made in his life.

Chen Xingze's eyes seemed to grow on that small section of neck. Suddenly, You Xiaolin moved, and Chen Xingze's eyes also blinked. Immediately, You Xiaolin got up with seven or eight students around, and walked to the front desk to wait.

Is he going to be on stage too

Chen Xingze sat up straight and turned to listen to the host's speech.

“…Caring for and subsidizing poor students is an important task in education reform and development, and it is also a concrete manifestation of the government and schools attaching great importance to education and caring about talents. In order to ensure that poor students in our school do not drop out of school due to economic difficulties, and ensure that poor students can study with peace of mind , normal life and healthy physical and mental growth, school—”

Chen Xingze listened to the cadence of the host, and was stunned for a while, and then his mind suddenly became hot. There was a buzzing sound in his ears, and his hands trembled involuntarily. He quickly looked at You Xiaolin, who was still standing beside the stage quietly, his head bowed slightly.

Just like when he was bullied before, he didn't resist, but his face was a little pale.

Are you sick...

This school is fucking sick...

"Then we ask the vice-principal to award scholarships to the poor students this year." The host smiled and took the lead in applauding.

"Oh, I found it." Lu Hao, who had been writhing in the narrow space for a long time, finally found the chewing gum. He wiped his sweat and was about to hand it to Chen Xingze, but Chen Xingze suddenly stood up. The aura made Lu Hao feel a gust of wind in front of him.

The venue was very quiet, and it was very abrupt for Chen Xingze to stand up in a dignified manner. Everyone around looked at him in shock. Lu Hao pulled his sleeve and lowered his voice, "Hey... what are you doing? Sit down quickly."

Everyone's attention, including the impoverished students headed by You Xiaolin who just came to power, was attracted to Chen Xingze. Chen Xingze was furious and emotional, turning a blind eye to the sight around him. He pointed at a timid-looking girl in the fifth class in front of him and roared, "There is a snake under your seat!"

That girl lived up to expectations and bounced up instantly! Holding a face is a voice! She tried desperately to hide to the side, her shouting caused a cascade effect, and the girls beside her were all screaming and screaming. In order to create a good stage effect in the auditorium, the lights were turned on very darkly. No one in Black Blondon knew whether there was really a snake. One person hid and everyone hid, and the scene suddenly fell into chaos.

The teachers rushed to maintain the situation. Everyone was watching the excitement. The poor students on the stage took the scholarship certificates from the dumbfounded vice-principal and stepped down.

"Chen Xingze! Come here for me!" The scene stabilized a little, and Xie Dingnan came over to ask for his guilt. Before leaving, Chen Xingze went to the stage to take a look, the slender, snow-white boy seemed to be looking over here.

He didn't see clearly.

"Who is that, what class?"

"Suddenly got nervous?"

"There's something wrong."

"Shut up!" Among the voices that were discussing, there was only one that was not very harmonious. Everyone looked over, and Lu Hao said solemnly, "What if there really is a snake?"

"… "

For a long time after Chen Xingze was taken away by Xie Dingnan, everyone's attention remained on this matter. After all, this is much more exciting than a long and boring welcome. In contrast, Chen Xingze, who caused the riot, was very calm in his heart. In the face of the angry head teacher, he was not afraid.

Xie Dingnan didn't take Chen Xingze to the office, but took him to lecture in front of the woods outside the auditorium.

"What's the matter with you? Why did you suddenly disturb the venue?" Xie Dingnan looked at Chen Xingze seriously. Chen Xingze did not speak. "How could there be snakes in the school hall? Are you playing a prank?" Chen Xingze remained silent, Xie Dingnan threatened, "If you don't say anything, I will have to find your parents."

Just look for it.

Seemingly seeing through Chen Xingze's inner meaning, Xie Dingnan sighed. When Chen Xingze felt that he was going to call his parents in the next second, Xie Dingnan exhaled slowly again.

"Are you too nervous about starting school? But that's not the reason for your prank. Forget it this time, don't do it again next time. You're no longer a child when you go to high school. Go back to the classroom and take a break."

Chen Xingze was stunned for a while. He raised his head and saw the woods behind Xie Dingnan.

The environment of the experimental middle school is very good, there are large areas of greenery, the branches of the trees are strong and strong, and at least it has a history of more than ten years of growth. There are mostly peach trees in the woods. Recently, the autumn rain has been heavy, and the peach blossoms have almost fallen. Only two or three trees hiding behind the air vents still have pink petals left.

Did you choose such a place to talk because you didn't want the new students to be too intimidated

"Teacher." Chen Xingze stopped Xie Dingnan who was about to return to the auditorium. "… sorry."

Xie Dingnan was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Well, it's not an example."

Chen Xingze returned to the classroom alone, the room was extremely quiet, he looked around, this was where he was going to stay for three years. Chen Xingze sat back in the last row, feeling a little tired, closed his eyes and lay on the table, waiting for the end of the welcome party.

The classmates probably thought he was a neurotic, and this kind of thing happened on the first day of school.

With his forehead on the table, Chen Xingze buried his face in the darkness and smiled bitterly.

But he didn't regret it. Under the circumstances, he could only think of such a method. He didn't know whether it would be helpful to You Xiaolin. Maybe other students had already seen the list of poor students elsewhere, so he was completely superfluous. But it doesn't matter if he does nothing, if you want him to do nothing and look at You Xiaolin's pale face for others to discuss, it would be better to kill him directly.

A sweet mint smell suddenly poured into his nostrils. Chen Xingze was a little strange, he slowly raised his head, the tall boy bent his waist, pinched a thin piece of chewing gum with two fingers, and was trying to deliver it to his nose.

"I found it." Lu Hao grinned, put the chewing gum in front of Chen Xingze, and squeezed himself into the seat next to him.

Chen Xingze was a little confused.

"… Why are you here?"

"Sneak out." Lu Hao said naturally.

How did your physique sneak out? Before Chen Xingze could ask another question, Lu Hao looked over with worried eyes.

"Are you OK?"

"what?"

"Didn't the head teacher call you out? He said you didn't have anything?"

"Oh... no, let me be an exception."

"That's good."

Chen Xingze was obviously relieved to see Lu Hao, and his heart warmed, Lu Hao really cared about him.

"Why did you suddenly do that?" Lu Hao asked again.

Perhaps it was because Lu Hao's temperament was too bright and his eyes were too bright, or perhaps it was because of Lu Hao's concern that Chen Xingze felt comforted, and he told him the truth.

"Because I don't like what the school is doing."

"What?"

Chen Xingze said with a cold face: "Call the poor students on stage to go to the exhibition."

Lu Hao looked at him with clear eyes and seemed a little puzzled. Chen Xingze frowned, "Don't you think it's too much?" Could it be that he really cared too much

"When did this happen?"

"what?"

Lu Hao looked puzzled: "Why didn't I see any poor students come to power?"

"… "

Chen Xingze then remembered that Lu Hao seemed to have been churning chewing gum at the time of the incident.

He was suddenly discouraged, and lay back on the table weakly. Lu Hao said with hindsight, "It's because of this that you messed up the situation? The chaos caused everyone to pay less attention to poor students? Is there anyone you know?"

People you know…

Does a person who has been in love for six years count as an acquaintance

Chen Xingze smiled helplessly and wrote lightly, "Ah, I have friends."

After he finished speaking, he immersed himself in his memories, and then found that there was no movement for a long time. He turned his head and found that Lu Hao was staring at him with piercing eyes.

Chen Xingze was stared furiously, and straightened up, "What are you doing?"

"So handsome."

Lu Hao looked very solemn, he took Chen Xingze's hand, as if he was afraid that he couldn't hear clearly, he repeated firmly.

"Chen Xingze, you are so fucking handsome!"

Poor Chen Xingze's GAY face was reddened by this sudden straight ball.

"What..." He murmured and shook off Lu Hao, looked aside, and fanned himself.
