The next day Li Ye asked me when I left last night and why he didn’t see me.
I rolled my eyes at him and ignored him, but he didn't get angry. Instead, he asked me in a very tactless way whether He Xubei had picked me up first.
"You mean a man? Do you think he is as unruly as you? What's the point of snatching someone? It's only a few days away anyway, and school will start and you won't be able to go back to work." In fact, I don't blame Li Ye that much. It's not his responsibility to protect my safety.
He Xubei was sitting in his seat, reading a book, but he was actually listening to what Li Ye and I were saying. At this time, he asked, "Yi Ping'an, were you okay coming back alone last night?"
I told him what happened yesterday in a relaxed manner. I saw worry in He Xubei's eyes, while Li Ye kept blaming himself.
Last night, Li Ye took his "favorite car" out for a tinkering, and met a few friends there. Those friends and Li Ye all knew each other because they liked racing. When they saw Li Ye's car, they said they were going to run a few laps on Binhe Avenue today. This "running a few laps" meant illegal racing, and the prize money for winning or losing was quite tempting. Li Ye, who likes excitement, was a little tempted, and then he remembered that I asked him to pick me up later, so he agreed.
He knew I almost got into trouble last night, and now he felt a little guilty, so he apologized to me very embarrassedly: "Ping An, I'm sorry!"
Later, He Xubei suggested that he and Li Ye pick me up at the same time, and Li Ye had no choice but to agree.
After getting to know Ling Shanshan, I found that she is such a good girl, gentle, generous, innocent and kind. If I were a man, I would pursue her.
When I said this, Li Ye touched my head and asked me if I was sick.
"Some boys really have no taste, right Shanshan?"
Ling Shanshan, who was sitting next to me, didn't say anything but just smiled. I'm not good at taking the initiative to make friends, and coupled with the famous "three characteristics", my classmates all think that I'm not easy to get along with, so I don't have many friends. The former Jingyan is now a stranger, and Li Ye is one of them. As for He Xubei, I don't know if he counts as one, because of Yangguang's death, I don't know how to face him.
Ling Shanshan can be considered as my friend. Although we are not in the same class, she will come to the corridor to find me after class. We will eat and play together. She will tell me her thoughts and secrets. Now we are just like me and Song Jingyan in the past.
It's just that Ling Shanshan doesn't have as many thoughts as Song Jingyan, she is a very simple girl. I asked her quietly in private, and she said that she really didn't like He Xubei, he was just a very familiar neighbor brother, how could a sister like a brother.
I blushed at her answer . I have already told He Xubei several times that I don't like him. What is she expecting by asking her these questions now?
As a recognized school beauty, Song Jingyan was one of the hosts at every opening ceremony. However, it was not her who stood on the stage this time. After all the students sat down in the classroom on the fourth floor dedicated to the senior class, I looked around but did not see Song Jingyan.
The teacher said that Song Jingyan applied to be transferred to another class.
I don’t know if this is because of me. I can’t believe that she has become so cold to me that she doesn’t even want to see me.
I remembered her disgusted look when Ling Shanshan and I were together, and her jealous look when Li Ye and I were laughing and joking, and I felt helpless.
The workload in the third year of high school is very heavy, and everyone is making one final effort for next year’s college entrance examination.
He Xubei was right about one thing, my foundation was not bad. I was also a top student in the class before high school, because at that time I always tried hard to please my father. I was so young and had nothing, so I could only prove myself with the best grades.
But my father didn’t understand my only pride. When he saw my grades that other parents envied, he just said “Oh” and didn’t even give me a word “good”. Later, I stopped studying seriously.
Some people never grow up, while some people grow up in an instant during the painful transformation.
I am the latter, so I am also among the hard-working students.
