On the weekends, the venue for the competition was set at the Grand Theater, which was far from home, so Lu Yan woke up before seven o'clock for fear of being late.
There were not many pedestrians on the road, and the traffic was not blocked at all. When I got on the bus, even the carriage was more open than usual.
But just when Lu Yan was changing to the subway, the feeling of being stalked came again.
It used to be in the evening, and this was the first time this happened during the day. Lu Yan was beating a lot in her heart, and since there were many people around, she began to look around carefully.
It was a weekend morning, and the whole carriage, except for the uncles and aunts who came back from the park, were students who were carrying schoolbags just like her.
After observing for a while, Lu Yan wondered whether someone was really following her, or if she was so nervous recently that she had hallucinations.
It was not even eight o'clock when we arrived at the Grand Theater. In order to cheer Lu Yan and the others, many teachers and students from No. 7 Middle School came, and students from other schools gathered at the door.
After meeting Deng Man and Tang Jie, Lu Yan told them about the strange things that happened these days, but unfortunately, before the three of them discussed the result, the game was about to start.
Jiang Chengyi and Wang Na were in group A, while Lu Yan and Yu Mao were in group B.
Group A compares first.
When Lu Yan came off the stage, Jiang Chengyi and Wang Na had already finished the match.
There are many rooms in the Grand Theater. At the end of the competition, according to the teacher's request, she and Yu Mao went to an empty room in the backstage to wait for the result.
There were students from other schools in the room, all discussing the game just now, Jiang Chengyi and Wang Na were also there.
Jiang Chengyi seemed to know a student from another school. When Lu Yan came in, he was talking to that person.
Yu Mao was obviously worried about the result of the game, so after a few words with Lu Yan, he anxiously took out his mobile phone to make a call.
Wang Na is not much better than Yu Mao. In order to distract her attention, she seems to want to join Jiang Chengyi in their conversation, but Jiang Chengyi obviously didn't give her this chance. She stood for a while, then walked to Lu Yan's side, a little uneasy. Smiling: "I don't know when the results will come out."
Lu Yan was quite confident at first, but she had seen other school's players during the competition just now, and she also knew that the strong has its own strong middle, especially during the competition, Yu Mao did not play well because he was too nervous. It may have an impact, so she has absolutely no idea whether she can get the ranking or not.
After waiting for a while, the results of the competition came out. Jiang Chengyi and Wang Na successfully entered the top three, while the group of Lu Yan and Yu Mao was only fourth because of a difference of 0.5 points, and missed the final.
This was Lu Yan's first time losing her name to Sun Shan since she participated in this kind of inter-school competition. After knowing the result, she was a little frustrated, put on her schoolbag, and left the room gloomily.
Yu Mao caught up with her and said apologetically, "Lu Yan, I'm so sorry, if I hadn't been too nervous just now, I wouldn't have made it difficult for you to make it to the finals."
This kind of competition is about team cooperation, and it is a matter of two people. How can it be all blamed on Yu Mao.
She shook her head hurriedly, comforting him and said: "The fourth place is also very good. I didn't make it to the finals this year, so I won't have a chance next year. If I can participate in the competition next time, I'll just play well."
Yu Mao still felt very embarrassed and said, "Lu Yan, you are thirsty, I will buy you a drink."
Without waiting for Lu Yan to refuse, she ran away.
Lu Yan took two steps, and Wang Na ran past her happily like a gust of wind. While running, she called her parents: "Mom and Dad, I'm in the finals." She looked extremely happy.
After a while, Jiang Chengyi also came out. When passing by Lu Yan, he even glanced at her sideways.
Lu Yan was already in a low mood, but when she met Jiang Chengyi's gaze, she only felt that he was showing off as a winner.
After staring, I regret it. Since she was able to comfort Yu Mao calmly and objectively, why would she anger Jiang Chengyi? That stare just now seemed to be a little vexatious.
He froze slightly.
Lu Yan was embarrassed and quickly turned her head to look out the window.
The Grand Theater continues the colonial-style architecture of the last century, with red-painted wooden floors and wide floor-to-ceiling windows. Everywhere you can see is simple and clean. In order to unify the style, even the backyard is full of green banana trees, standing in the window. Going to look outside, the blue eyes are threatening.
I don't know when, the students are almost gone, and only she and Jiang Chengyi are left in the huge corridor.
Jiang Chengyi took a few steps, then stopped again, not far or near, standing a few steps away from her.
Realizing that he didn't mean to leave, she pretended to be calm, but her heart was pounding, and even her back was quietly stiffened.
At this moment, Yu Mao left and returned, followed by Tang Jie and Deng Man.
"Lu Yan." Seeing her, the two of them ran over.
"Hey, Jiang Chengyi." Running to the front, Yu Mao and Tang Jie slowed down.
Deng Man, however, was not as surprised as Tang Jie because he had already noticed the affair between Lu Yan and Jiang Chengyi, and only pulled Lu Yan and said, "Let's go, didn't you say that there are always people following you during this time? Before it's still early, Tang Jie and I will take you home."
Yu Mao bought a bunch of drinks and was about to distribute them to everyone. Hearing this, he said in surprise, "Following? Lu Yan, is someone following you?"
Jiang Chengyi had already planned to leave, but when he heard this, he stopped again.
Tang Jie said: "Lu Yan is only suspicious now. After all, she has never seen the stalker. However, there are so many perverts in the society now, so it shouldn't be Lu Yan's illusion. I just don't know who is so bad and scare Lu every day. Yan, it's best not to let us catch him, I have to beat him to death."
When they got home, Tang Jie and Deng Man were afraid of an accident, so they sent Lu Yan home, and spent another afternoon at her house before leaving.
When I went to the basketball gym for rehearsal on Monday, Lu Yan didn't see Jiang Chengyi. Later, I learned that because they successfully entered the final, Jiang Chengyi and Wang Na would concentrate on training during this time.
At the end of school in the evening, the road was calm, and Lu Yan could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Who knew that the next day, the feeling of being peeped appeared again.
This time, Lu Yan was really scared. When her mother came back, she told her about it.
Worrying about her daughter's accident, her mother took Lu Yan to school the next day, and decided to pick up Lu Yan every day from next week.
On Wednesday, Lu Yan went to the basketball hall for rehearsal. When she saw a lot of unfamiliar boys, she knew that because the basketball court of No. 3 Middle School was being repaired, she had borrowed the venue of No. 7 Middle School to practice. Take this opportunity to play a warm-up match.
After jumping for a while, just to change formation, Lu Yan turned around and faced the rest area. She saw Jiang Chengyi sitting with his back against the wall, drinking water and staring blankly at a boy.
She had never seen Jiang Chengyi look at people like that, but she only found it strange. When she looked over there, she saw a tall boy with a very strange appearance. He should be a student of No. 3 Middle School.
Seeing her look over, the boy blushed and smiled at her.
After school the next day, Lu Yan originally wanted to stay to watch the warm-up game at night, but because her mother had to work overtime at night, after picking her up, her mother had to rush to the work unit and did not agree with her staying at school.
Lu Yan had to go home with her mother.
Arriving at school the next morning, as soon as Lu Yan entered the classroom, she heard her classmates gossip: "Why don't you say that the boys on the basketball team have good physical strength, this fight is really exciting, you didn't see that the boy almost vomited blood last night. , the coach can't even pull it off."
Tang Jie was eating bread, but when she saw Lu Yan coming, she pulled her down and said, "You're finally here."
Lu Yan put down her schoolbag in surprise: "What happened?"
Tang Jie said, "You don't know yet? During the warm-up match last night, Jiang Chengyi had a fight with that perverted boy from No. 3 Middle School."
Jiang Chengyi? fight
Lu Yan's heart skipped a beat: "What's going on?"
"It's the boy who followed you, um, was found last night." Deng Man added.
"That's right, I didn't expect that guy to be a student, or from the third middle school. Jiang Chengyi and the others should have been staring at that person for a few days. Not only did they verify the person's identity, but they also photographed the whole process of that person following you. That boy is really good. Perverted, I have followed you twice in the past few days, once at the school gate, and left after showing only one face, and the second time I went too far, I almost followed you to your house."
Lu Yan frowned: "This person is too disgusting, and then what?"
"After the game last night, before everyone left, Jiang Chengyi asked him if he was following you to scare you. The boy didn't admit it, and Jiang Chengyi didn't talk nonsense. He grabbed the man's collar and started beating. Everyone was stunned. It was still a few coaches who went up to fight together, and finally pulled Jiang Chengyi away. With the photos as proof, the boy couldn't deny it, but Jiang Chengyi beat him so hard that he knocked out one of the boy's teeth. Early, the boy's parents came to the school aggressively. I heard that the family still runs a company, and it is estimated that it will not be closed for a while. However, Jiang Chengyi has never caused trouble before. will be punished."
"Then Jiang Chengyi wasn't injured, right?"
"It must have won the prize too, don't forget that the pervert is also from the basketball team."
All morning, Lu Yan was very worried.
After class at noon, Lu Yan lied that the teacher was looking for her for something, and when Deng Man and Tang Jie went out to eat, she went to class three to "condolence" Jiang Chengyi, took a peek inside, didn't see Jiang Chengyi, and went to the basketball hall again. , Who knows that Jiang Chengyi is also not there.
Later, she went out to buy takeout, and when she passed by the pharmacy, she went in and bought a box of iodophor and a pack of Band-Aid.
Recalling that her mother was so busy these days to pick her up, she texted her mother in the afternoon, saying that the stalker had been caught, and she would go home with Deng Man and Tang Jie after school,
In the evening, when she and Tang Jie and Deng Man passed by the basketball arena, she hesitated a little, and asked them to wait for her at the school gate for a while, while she went to the basketball hall to find Jiang Chengyi.
Unexpectedly, he was still not there, she thought to herself, if she could see him tomorrow, she would give it to him again.
After walking for a while, I remembered that Tang Jie said in the afternoon that Jiang Chengyi might be punished for this matter, he hesitated again, thought about it, and finally decided to go to the third shift to have a look.
The teaching building was quiet, and as soon as she reached the third class, she heard a voice inside. Looking inside, he saw Jiang Chengyi and a few boys in the classroom. Those people were talking, but he was silent.
After taking a few glances, I couldn't see his injury clearly, but was discovered by the people inside.
"Lu Yan?" A boy came over.
Lu Yan smiled and had to bite the bullet and go in.
The boys gave an ambiguous wink, put their jackets on their shoulders, and walked away with a smile.
Jiang Chengyi stood with his back to the window, watching her approach lightly.
When he got to the front, Lu Yan found that his forehead, the bridge of his nose, and the corners of his mouth were all torn. Clothes blocked her, so she couldn't see it.
However, looking at him in good spirits, he won't be seriously injured.
"Are you OK."
He stared at her without saying a word.
She put down her schoolbag, took out the iodophor and cotton balls inside, and said grandly, "If you don't handle it properly, your wound will become inflamed."
After speaking, seeing that he had no objection, he handed him the cotton ball dipped in iodophor.
He didn't answer: "I can't see it myself."
She looked at him, not moving.
He looked down at her condescendingly, the stubbornness in his eyes was clear at a glance.
After a stalemate for a while, she decided to take a step back, wet the cotton ball again, and raised her hand to rub the medicine for him. Anyway, there are only a few wounds, and they can be dealt with soon.
But before the cotton ball in her hand touched his face, he suddenly turned his face away and grabbed her wrist: "You can think about it, if you wipe the medicine for me, you will be my girlfriend. "
Her heart was beating like a drum, she looked at him for a while, looked away, and touched the wound on his forehead with the cotton ball in her hand. It was light and slow, but she didn't hesitate.
His face flushed red.
She stopped looking at him and turned to focus on the wounds, the forehead, the brow bone, the temple, the bridge of the nose, none of them fell. However, before the cotton ball in her hand touched the corner of his mouth, her eyes darkened, He lowered his head and kissed her.
