The bell rang, and the invigilator standing on the podium knocked on the table, reminding everyone to stop writing.
"The paper is handed in, handed in! Don't write anymore!" The invigilator said in a serious tone, "Those in the last row, don't talk to each other, stop writing immediately! Do you know that if this is the college entrance examination, continuing to write after the bell rings is equivalent to Cheating!"
The students who were named stuck their tongues out, and could only put down their pens resentfully.
Under the supervision of the teacher, the students put the test papers and answer sheets upside down on the table, and then filed out of the classroom. After the final exam, they will be freed! As for the test results... Hey, it's winter vacation, what else do you want to do? Why don't you think about what to eat tonight.
In a blink of an eye, the students walked cleanly, and the corridors were filled with the sound of students calling friends to discuss where to have a big meal.
The invigilator shook his head helplessly and muttered, "I'm already in the third year of high school, and I'm still so crazy."
The deputy invigilator smiled and said, "My child, isn't that the case? When I was studying, I looked forward to liberation every day."
In the corridor, Liu Ke, the monitor of the third year (1) class, put his arm on the shoulder of Yan Jing, the school committee of the second year (1) class, and asked carelessly, "How about you, little brother, come to our third year to 'experience' the college entrance examination in advance. How does it feel, is it exciting or not?"
Yan actually pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and sighed deeply, looking like he had passed the exam.
Hwaseong No. 1 Middle School has a tradition that the top 30 in the second year of high school have to take the mock exam along with the third year of high school, so that they can feel the atmosphere of the third year in advance, and let them understand where the gap is.
This time, the person in charge of the city-wide unified examination was changed. The examination difficulty was abnormally high. The last big question in mathematics stumped half of the students in the whole grade. Some people even left the first question blank. As for the comprehensive analysis, it was even more difficult. Several students from the Rocket Class left the examination room crying after finishing the exam.
The last subject is English. The reading questions are related to nuclear physics. It is full of complex nouns. Cloze tells a story of time and space travel, and temporal traps follow one after another.
When taking the paper, Liu Ke took a peek at the answer sheets of the students around him, and the answers were varied, and there was no two answer sheets that overlapped more than 80%! Looking around, the small black squares are like small landmines, spread all over the ground.
Liu Ke beat a drum in his heart and dragged Yan Jing to match the answer.
The two were arguing over a cloze tense issue. One said to choose A, the other said to choose B. Neither of them could convince the other.
Finally, Liu Ke dragged the alpha boy beside him who had been silent for a while, and asked diligently, "Xiao Shen, Xiao Xueba, don't watch the show, tell me what to choose for that question?"
Xiao Yiheng replied, "I choose C."
"Ah? Why?" Liu Ke was the first to rule out C.
"No reason, I wasn't sure about that question, so I chose the one that was pleasing to the eye."
Liu Ke: "Damn it!" He was extremely annoyed, "Damn, I must have chosen C for that question..."
Yan was at a loss: "Didn't Senior Brother Xiao say that he filled out that question randomly?"
Liu Ke patted his head: "What do you know? In the English teacher's words, if we don't know the answer, just fill in one, it's called 'Meng'; if the student doesn't know the answer, just fill in one, it's called 'language sense'!"
English language sense is a very magical thing. The most amazing thing about it is that it will only add to the icing on the cake, and will not give help. Only people with good grades will always have a sense of language, and people with poor grades can choose the wrong answer even for a two-choice question.
Liu Ke has extraordinary trust in Xiao Yiheng. Since Xiao Yiheng chose C with his sense of language, the final answer is definitely C!
Yan Jing's English is a weakness, especially after this mock test, he deeply realized how far he is from the real high school. He plans to make up lessons this winter vacation and make a surprise attack on English. Liu Ke was very moved by his proposal. The two discussed it and planned to hire a 1v2 tutor to take classes together.
"Shen Xiao, what are your plans for the winter vacation? Complement your English? Complement your math?... Oh yes, I remembered, you were selected for the winter camp of a famous school, so you are going to the university to report?"
Xiao Yiheng replied calmly: "No, my first plan is to fall in love."
"???"
Xiao Yiheng said a few more words: "Go to the capital, find Li Cheng, and fall in love."
"… "
These two people are people who know his relationship with Li Cheng, and he naturally shows his affection without hesitation.
Liu Ke and Yan Jing, two single dogs, were so frightened by his calm tone that their expressions froze on their faces.
Xiao Yiheng held back his smile: "my flight tomorrow."
This time, the two of them were not only surprised, but their eyes were full of admiration. Look at the god of learning, and it is so efficient when it comes to love.
…
After Xiao Yiheng returned home, he started to pack his luggage. In front of the bedroom bed, a large suitcase was spread out, half of which was filled with textbooks, and the other half was filled with his winter clothes.
He found the down jacket that Li Cheng had given him from the depths of the closet, and folded it squarely. His fingers ran across Li Cheng's name on the collar, as if stroking the back of Li Cheng's neck.
"Hengheng, is your luggage ready?" At this moment, Xiao's mother pushed open Xiao Yiheng's bedroom door and urged.
Xiao Yiheng was extremely calm. He didn't lift his head. He folded the down jacket neatly at the bottom of the box and replied, "I'm packing up."
Mother Xiao nodded, pulled over the chair and sat down, staring at him packing his luggage. She looked very tired, no longer as delicate and beautiful as usual.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Yiheng guessed it: "Mom, are you looking for Dad again?"
After a big fight that day, the relationship between the AA couple, who had been married for 18 years, suddenly fell below freezing. Before that, they were comrades-in-arms, with the same knives; now, they have become enemies, stabbing the sharpest weapons at each other.
In fact, the contradictions are gradually accumulating: both of them are alphas, and they are both arrogant "straight A cancers", and bumps are inevitable in their daily life. They are too proud and disdain to quarrel and quarrel like ordinary couples, so every time they encounter a problem, the two will "cold treatment", which is commonly known as the cold war. They claim that this is a mature way of expressing their opinions, but they don't know that it is the cold wars one after another that make them wear out their relationship as husband and wife, and they become more and more like co-tenants living under the same roof.
And this whistleblower incident was the last straw that crushed their relationship, causing the two to suspect and accuse each other of each other. Dad Xiao simply rented an apartment near the school and has not been home for half a month.
Hearing Xiao Yiheng mentioning his father, Xiao's mother's face instantly became more ugly.
"Why don't you go to the capital? Tomorrow you will go to the capital. There are things going on at the end of the year at the Academic Affairs Office. I can't go away. I will ask him to escort you." Xiao's mother warned, "The winter camp is full of 'people'. Jing', you have to learn to express yourself and let the teacher notice you! Also, don't get too close to other students. Entering the winter camp does not mean that you will be 100% admitted to the university. There are only a few recommended places. Remember, they They are all your enemies!"
Xiao Yiheng: "..." His left ear went in and his right ear went out, and he didn't talk.
Xiao Yiheng went to the north alone, where the climate was completely different from here. Mother Xiao didn't care whether he brought enough clothes to keep out the cold and whether he could adapt to the severe cold there; she also didn't care whether he would feel lonely during the Spring Festival alone. What she cared about from the beginning to the end was whether Xiao Yiheng could get the recommended spot and whether he could win her glory.
However, Xiao Yiheng had expected it long ago, so he was not disappointed or disappointed. He would be surprised if one day his parents could care about something other than his studies.
Blink to the next morning.
Xiao Yiheng simply ate breakfast, picked up his luggage and went downstairs. Xiao's father's car was parked downstairs. Xiao's mother didn't want to see him, so she didn't send Xiao Yiheng down.
The father and son hadn't seen each other for a few days, and they were very estranged.
Originally, according to his parents' character, when his winter camp started, they would definitely send Xiao Yiheng to the capital, and then arrange a bunch of uncles and uncles working in the capital to watch him, so they were relieved. But now because of the cold war between the couple, no one has the heart to stare at Xiao Yiheng.
Xiao's father pretended to tell him: "When you get there, does anyone pick up the plane?"
"Yes." Xiao Yiheng said, "the teacher will wait for me at the airport."
Dad Xiao thought he was talking about a teacher at the Winter Camp of China Foreign Affairs University, but he would never have thought that Xiao Yiheng had no plans to step into the school gate of China Foreign Affairs University.
…
After several hours of flight, the plane landed steadily at the Capital Airport. The same flight, the same seat, the last time Xiao Yiheng came to the capital, Xiao Yiheng was not well prepared, a thin woolen coat was pierced by the cold wind, but this time it was different - he opened the backpack, took out the embroidered The down jacket with the name Li Cheng wore it on his body.
That down jacket is a long black style that can be seen everywhere. It will look sloppy and bloated when worn on others, but it seems to be tailor-made on Xiao Yiheng.
He walked briskly and pushed his luggage out of the pick-up hall. A familiar female voice came from the crowd - "Xiao Yiheng, this way!"
Xiao Yiheng followed the sound and saw Qiu Xian teacher excitedly waving at him. Beside her stood her wife Xu Jun, the baby closed her eyes and was sleeping peacefully in Qiu Xian's arms.
Xu Jun is from the capital. This Spring Festival, their family of three returned to the capital to celebrate the New Year. It happened that Xiao Yiheng came to the capital to attend the winter camp of Huaguo Academy of Fine Arts, and could live in their home during this time.
After a few months of not seeing Qiu Xian, Qiu Xian has gained some weight, and the baby in her arms is even more rounded.
Xu Jun enthusiastically took the luggage from Xiao Yiheng's hand and asked him if he was tired on the way. She also specially reserved a private room to take him to a dust-cleaning banquet.
"The dust washing banquet is too grand," Xiao Yiheng said hurriedly, "I've already bothered you a lot when I came here, and if it wasn't for Teacher Qiu getting a letter of recommendation for me, I wouldn't have a chance to realize my dream."
"Don't be so polite," Qiu Xian said. "You are my student now, and my junior brother in the future. I should take care of you."
But Xiao Yiheng still refused to wash the dust banquet firmly. Now he just wants to eat something to fill his stomach, and he still has very important things to do in the future.
Qiu Xian asked curiously, "What is so important?"
Xiao Yiheng replied, "In love."
"… "
It has been three full weeks since he last saw Li Cheng. Li Cheng has experienced too many things during this time. Although Xiao Yiheng has heard him say it on the phone, Xiao Yiheng wants to hear him face to face. Say it again.
Or if you don't speak, just pull your little hand across the railing and kiss your little mouth, that's fine too.
In short, if Li Cheng is not seen again, Xiao Yiheng's soul will dry up.
The author has something to say:
As the protagonist, this is Xiao Xiao's first time occupying a whole chapter.
