"To be honest, when Chu Mian's mother took out a bank card and handed it over, I really suspected that she wanted Yu Ran to see his mind." Cui He, who had witnessed everything, said so.
[Misaki]: Actually? "Give you five million and leave my son"
[Whale Song.]: His mother said it was for their Christmas budget.
[Misaki]: (⊙o⊙) That’s not bad.
[Whale Song.]: Who knows.
Mother always has to guess, even Chu Mian doesn't know, Ye Zhihan's attitude towards him dating a boy, I can't tell whether she is indifferent or dissatisfied with Ran, in short, she maintains an elegant and easy-going appearance , to send them home. When she was alone with her mother, Chu Mian would put on her earphones and close her eyes to rest, in order to refuse Ye Zhihan's interference. Anyway, she was going back to Switzerland for the New Year soon, so she had no time to worry about his private affairs at school.
"Don't ask the teacher to report my situation to you in the future, it's like being secretly watched every day." Chu Mian said lazily.
Ye Zhihan said: "Then I have no other channels to understand your life."
"You don't need to understand, all you need to know is that I'm having a good time." Chu Mian's tone was unquestionable, "In short, please do whatever you want, why take 'caring about your son' as a job and waste our mutual time."
Ye Zhihan shrugged with a smile, "Really, but I don't feel that your current state is happy."
"Because this is in front of you." Chu Mian showed a well-adjusted standard smile, looking polite and arrogant, he opened his arms to offer a hug and farewell blessing to his mother: "Frohe Weihnachten."
The smog in winter became more and more serious, the Ronggang Education Bureau issued a document to suspend classes, and Cheng Chun Middle School finally had a three-day holiday. However, as the exam is approaching, less class time means more homework, more pressure on teachers, and students don't want to relax.
After Chu Mian finished the review by herself, she still had to think about Yu Ran's situation, and helped him analyze the types of wrong questions in the recent physics test paper, "You have left too much content, and you have to memorize all the notes in three days during the holiday. Is it okay?"
Yu Ran was listless as soon as he was studying, and he slumped on the table and said "ah", without making a clear statement, he just asked, "Will you pass the exam?"
"If I say you can pass, will you stop studying again?"
"Anyway, I don't pursue A or B..."
"I can't pass." Chu Mian was categorical, "Go home and write the questions according to the outline I copied for you, memorize the notes first, and I will check you when school starts."
With a sad face, Yu Ran wailed and turned to the side, ignoring Chu Mian.
I thought that being Chu Mian's boyfriend would allow me to copy homework and class tests without any scruples, but the first grader now has stricter requirements than the teacher.
At the beginning, Yu Ran was obedient and obedient and studied for a few days, but after that, he was perfunctory. He has limited attention and can concentrate on the areas of interest, but he is half-hearted and unable to persevere in the face of learning.
The smoggy weather has improved and schools have resumed normal classes. Yu Ran's exercise book is still empty, and of course there is not much knowledge in his head.
Chu Mian had expected that he didn't listen to what she said, so she didn't bother to talk anymore, and simply took back the notes.
The first 15 minutes of every physics class is a quiz. Yu Ran could only write out a few lines of formulas when he saw the questions. answer sheet.
Yu Ran looked at him with pleading eyes, "I haven't finished writing yet."
"Then you write."
"Nope."
Chu Mian didn't look at him, lowered her head to write other test papers, and casually left a sentence: "You should know these things."
Yu Ran could hear that he was in a bad mood, and besides, he hadn't completed his homework as required by him, so he was embarrassed to bother him to devote more energy to lecturing. Yu Ran scribbled down the answers, and listened quietly in this class, hoping to make Chu Mian happy with practical actions.
"I only got one of the multiple choice questions wrong." Yu Ran pointed to the math exercises to show him, "The teacher said this is a question for the college entrance examination."
Chu Mian didn't say a word, Yu Ran said again: "I also know the geometry of space, I only heard it once in class."
The atmosphere was deserted, and in order to warm up the scene, Yu Ran had no choice but to say to himself in a sharp tone: "You really deserve to be Yu Ran, awesome."
Beginning this week, Cheng Jun’s "Principal Tree Hole" postbox appeared outside the teaching building again. Everyone received letter paper and silently wrote down their recent concerns and expectations.
Chu Mian can only write when Yu Ran is not around, pick up the pen, and first comment: "Yu Ran is the most stupid person in the world."
— But liking him is also the happiest thing for me.
—You hurry up and get serious, don't worry me.
Compared with him, Yu Ran's content is much more concise, with only one sentence: "Chu Mian must make his wishes come true."
They folded their letter papers neatly and stuffed them into mailboxes, mixing with other people's emotions.
After lunch, Yu Ran went to make instant milk tea with Cui He, and casually mentioned: "Why do I think Chu Mian's temper is not as good as before? He was never angry because I didn't study before, and now I don’t want to say the same question twice.”
Cui He smiled gloatingly, and deliberately teased him, saying, "It's a man's nature to like the new and dislike the old. He thinks you're annoying."
Yu Ran spilled half a pack of milk tea powder outside, he asked in fear, "Really?"
"Fake!" Cui He kicked him, "You are heartless, you believe everything others say. How can Chu Mian bother you, he doesn't even look at the bowl when he eats, he only looks at you."
Yu Ran made a false alarm, smiled contentedly, and asked again: "Then I still listen carefully to the class and don't bother him, why is he ignoring me?"
"I want you to coax him." Cui He shook his head indifferently, "I think Chu Mian is a coward, and you are used to it. Whoever makes you idle will always accommodate him."
"Frustrated? You are not allowed to say that about him!" Yu Ran was righteous, "Chu Mian is about 1.8 meters tall!"
Cui He rolled his lips and gave him a white look, "Okay, let me change the meaning, how did that song sing, what's 'what you can't get is always in commotion'—"
She opened her mouth and hesitated to speak, implying that the second half of Yu Ran's lyrics is the key point.
However, Yu Ran doesn't listen to Chinese songs very much, and he silently recites Cui He's words, let alone guessing Chu Mian's thoughts.
During evening self-study, Ronggang ushered in the first snow of this year, like white velvet flying, falling closely with the cold wind.
Yu Ran really wanted to go out for a snowball fight after school, but the snow didn't stop for a long time, making people worry that his hair would get wet. The order in the classroom was a bit chaotic. He leaned on Chu Mian's shoulder, hummed "Edelweiss" weakly, and finally asked, "How much is the score?"
Chu Mian remained expressionless, "One hundred."
"You are always so generous." Yu Ran patted Chu Mian's thigh, "Then you should be more open-minded and tell me about physics and history."
Chu Mian wrote lightly: "It's fine if you can pass the exam. If you have anything to say, go and play."
Yu Ran laughed jokingly: "Yo, you have also learned Yin-Yang Qi."
"That's not saying what you want to hear."
"Oops, my fault, my fault, next time—"
Before he finished speaking, his field of vision fell into darkness, and all the lights in front and back of the classroom were extinguished. The students in the class all made surprised sounds, especially those who were playing with their mobile phones. The faint light on their faces was particularly prominent at this moment, and they turned off the screen unexpectedly.
Chu Mian felt her chin being held by someone, and then two soft lips pressed against her mouth, rubbing gently bit by bit.
Startled, Chu Mian raised her hand to hold the back of Yu Ran's neck, preventing him from moving his face.
The teacher went out to inquire about the situation, and came back to comfort everyone: "It's okay, it's okay, the circuit is repaired, just wait for five minutes."
Everyone sighed in disappointment, thinking they could go straight home from school. The class could not continue, and no one dared to play with their mobile phones, so the students simply chatted noisily in the dark.
No one would notice that the two boys in the back row of the classroom were secretly kissing.
Yu Ran found out that Chu Mian didn't wear the lip balm she gave him today, but another kind of elegant floral fragrance. He squeezed his lower lip hard, reluctantly moved his face away, and whispered softly: "My flower fairy, don't lose your temper."
Chu Mian bumped his forehead against him, and said dully, "Don't call me nonsense."
"No barking, I'm serious."
Someone opened the curtains to let in the light from the street lamps outside, and the students could barely see the outlines of the people around them.
Yu Ran reached out and touched Chu Mian's head twice, "I will study hard for you until the end of the term, and I will remember what you say, don't get angry."
"It's not for me." Chu Mian said, "Think about yourself, don't be so lazy, lay the foundation early, and it will be easier in the third year of high school."
Yu Ran quickly nodded in agreement.
School circuits have returned to normal, and classrooms continue to operate. The blizzard slowed down at night and almost stopped.
The brand-new snow is extremely soft, and as soon as the school bell rang, Yu Ran hurriedly dragged Chu Mian out, wanting to be the first person to step on the snow. He used shoe prints to piece together a five-pointed star pattern, stepped over carefully, and followed Chu Mian out of school.
Arriving at a corner with few students, Chu Mian took off her schoolbag, took out a newly bought scarf from it, and handed it to Yu Ran, "For you."
"Huh? Same as the one on your neck."
"I bought it together, you can take it as a Christmas present."
The scarf Chu Mian wears is no longer the one she wore last year. This time it is pure white, the most suitable color for winter. Yu Ran hung it around his neck, clumsily wrapped it around twice, and finally Chu Mian stepped forward to help him fasten the beautiful buckle.
Seeing that both of them were wearing the same scarves, Yu Ran leaned over and hugged Chu Mian, combining their pure white into one. In this way, he seemed to be buried in a big ball of fluffy cream, and Chu Mian was the sweetest and most delicious embellishment.
Yu Ran put pressure on his shoulder and asked: "If you get angry and I don't come to coax you, what should you do? You won't be suffocated?"
Chu Mian wrapped her arms around the opponent's waist, tightened her forearms, and asked, "Will you not come?"
"No, I can't see that you are unhappy." Yu Ran raised his face slightly, and lightly pecked Chu Mian's chin, "I will listen to you more, and you will listen to me more."
Chu Mian refused: "No, your words are too harsh."
"You fucking..." Yu Ran sighed, and held back not bargaining with him, "All right, all right, I'll listen to you."
The corners of Chu Mian's lips slightly raised, and she pressed against Yu Ran's cold ear, and whispered, "But you can also sing to me instead of talking."
Yu Ran readily agreed: "Okay, then I'll call you to sing before going to bed tonight. Oh, you should have said this kind of request earlier, no wonder Cui He still sang to remind me."
"What reminds you?" Chu Mian asked, "Did she speak ill of me?"
"No… "
Chu Mian pinched his earlobe lightly, threateningly: "What did she say about me?"
"She, she just..." Yu Ran recalled the lyrics, "Say you're coquettish."
Chu Mian frowned, "You didn't refute her?"
"What's there to refute? My dad also said that the more coquettish a vixen is, the more likable he is."
In a world of ice and snow, Yu Ran's ears turned red while talking, he laughed twice, and said sincerely: "Of course, you are definitely not the level of a vixen, you should be the complete works of "Liao Zhai", the reincarnation of Dandelion—"
Chu Mian couldn't help but interrupted: "Yu Ran, you are really annoying."
While complaining, he murmured "I told you to stop talking", lowered his head and kissed the chattering mouth, and he didn't forget to pull their scarves to cover the cold wind.
The world seemed to be absorbed by the snow. They hugged each other under the warm yellow street lamp, only the breathing of the other was clear, yet gentle and secretive.
