After a short exchange, Teacher Chen Mei invited the group to sit in the teacher's office, drink water, and chat about everyone's development in recent years. But that kind of place is like hell to a guy like Xue Yong. , although he didn't say anything, the mask of pain on his face had deeply betrayed him, which caused a burst of laughter from several people, and then they stopped forcing themselves.
After saying goodbye to Teacher Chen, Cao Aiqing and He Tianran decided to go shopping in various corners of the school. Xue Yong liked to watch sports games, so Bai Tingting stayed with him. They agreed to meet up later to go to the class led by Teacher Chen Mei. Come on and cheer.
As a result, the four of them separated in pairs. Hong Kong City Middle School has not undergone any major changes in the past few years. The exciting sports music on the playground broadcast gradually followed the steps of He Tianran and Cao Aiqing walking to a quiet place. Gradually breathe.
The sky on campus was blown by the wind until only a pure blue remained. The tree-lined path the two walked on was lush with vegetation, and the sunlight shined down on every green leaf without any obstruction, projecting a vibrant, charming and lustful atmosphere. Drops of green glow.
The cicadas are chirping endlessly in midsummer, and the rippling breeze is frivolous on the hair. The lovers are holding hands, the man is smiling warmly, and the girl’s eyebrows are as bright as before. The youthful feelings that needed to be concealed on campus before are now, at this moment, They all became jokes that were made in an upright manner.
Cao Aiqing stopped when passing an old teaching building with walls covered with ivy.
"What's wrong?"
Feeling his lover's stop, He Tianran turned around and asked.
"Do you remember that place?"
Cao Aiqing pointed to the old teaching building, a light of reminiscence appeared in her eyes, and she said softly.
He Tianran looked around and realized that the teaching building in his impression had long been abandoned, and the classrooms inside were empty. When he was studying there, he heard that a botanical garden would be built here, but the school had never planned to start construction. Now, five years after graduation, Year, this building is still standing, and I don’t know which generation of juniors will be able to enjoy the rumored botanical garden.
"Of course I remember, but... we don't seem to have any special memories there."
He Tianran said while thinking about it.
"...That's it."
Cao Aiqing withdrew her gaze from the low teaching building and smiled at He Tianran, as if she was sharing a secret of hers. She continued:
"But I do!"
"Ah? What is it?"
Cao Aiqing blinked: "I was in a bad mood one day and it rained again, so I secretly hid under the eaves and cried alone. It was so miserable. Come on, come and see with me~"
The girl took her boyfriend's hand and walked towards the eaves of the teaching building. The boyfriend curiously asked:
"When did this happen?"
"I forgot, I am a sophomore or junior in high school."
The two walked up to the eaves. Cao Aiqing let go of his hand, put his hands behind his back and began to look around. He Tianran looked at it for a while and continued to ask:
"That should be the second year of high school? I remember that in the third year of high school, we were often together with Tingting and Guo Huai, and I almost never saw you in any bad mood. Or maybe you were under too much pressure in the college entrance examination at that time, so you were in a bad mood. not good?"
He Tianran guessed, but after he finished speaking, he didn't wait for a response. He turned to look at his girlfriend and saw the girl looking at him with a smile on her face, with a meaningful look on her face. He felt inexplicably panicked and stammered:
"Uh... don't, don't make you angry because I didn't know, right?"
Cao Aiqing stood there and stared at him in silence for a while. This gaze made He Tianran's mind race, trying desperately to think of whether he had really forgotten something.
"Chi~"
With a chuckle, Cao Aiqing decided to let him go.
"No, I forgot what it was exactly. I just remember that after it rained that day, the sky was exceptionally clear."
The girl under the eaves couldn't help but look up to the sky, and He Tianran slowly walked to her side.
"Is it the same as today's weather?"
Cao Aiqing raised his head and murmured:
"Maybe it will be sunny than today..."
How could she forget that He Tianran who stood in the rain, letting the rain wash away, stretched out his hand to herself, and said, "I am not arrogant to break into your life, I am also very restrained"?
The boy who ran towards him on the playground in front of all the teachers and students in the school, the boy who comforted himself and compared his low self-esteem with short hair to the unique and unparalleled beauty of his youth...
Those fragments are a bright dream that only belongs to the girl Cao Aiqing.
She will never forget it no matter what, she will remember it all...
Even the young man who runs towards me desperately will forget himself one day...
"Ai Qing, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? You feel weird today."
He Tianran asked with concern. Cao Aiqing looked at him again, shook his head with a smile, and then took his arm again.
"let's go……"
"Shh...listen, there's someone here."
Suddenly, He Tianran made a gesture of silence. Cao Aiqing listened carefully and heard someone's conversation on the other side of the teaching building.
"Oh Jiang Ming, stop holding me back, I have to go back to the scene to maintain order! If you have anything to say, please tell me!"
"Hey Xiaotong, I'm sorry, I really just said a few words and then I left. So what... then what last time... I... I said you haven't replied to me yet..."
The young couple, who were overflowing with curiosity, poked their heads out from the corner of the teaching building and saw that not far from them, there was also a man and a woman coming here. The man was just here with Xue Yong and He Tianran. Jiang Ming has conflicting little bangs.
The person he was talking to at the moment was a girl with a ponytail wearing Li Ning sportswear. She had a horn and a whistle hanging around her neck. At a glance, she knew that she should be responsible for blowing the whistle and shouting to maintain discipline at the scene, and this girl She looks sweet and amiable, and combined with the name revealed in Jiang Ming's words just now, I guess she is Su Xiaotong, the current school beauty of Hong Kong Central University.
"What's the reply? I don't know. I just want to study hard and prepare for the upcoming college entrance examination."
A look of escape flashed across Su Xiaotong's face, obviously not wanting to answer the other party's question.
"Ah... then... what about finishing the college entrance examination?"
Jiang Ming, who had already understood the girl's subtext, still asked stubbornly.
"After the college entrance examination? After the college entrance examination, go to university and continue studying! Hey, Jiang Ming, don't think about these things. You have to run a three-hundred-meter run and a thousand-meter run in the afternoon. Get ready quickly and take a rest. I really have to leave..."
The girl insisted on leaving. Jiang Ming, who had little bangs, was stunned in EMO. He lowered his head like an eggplant beaten by frost. Seeing him like this, Su Xiaotong finally relented. It was neither a matter of leaving nor a matter of not leaving.
In this compartment, the couple eating melons watched with gusto. He Tianran whispered to Cao Aiqing:
"How come this reason seems familiar to me? Tell me, with this kind of rejection on the excuse of studying, does that man still have a chance?"
Cao Aiqing suppressed laughter and asked:
"What do you think?"
He Tianran rubbed his chin and thought:
"Hey, I think so..."
"Su Xiaotong——!"
Just when He Tianran was about to express his opinion, Jiang Ming suddenly shouted, attracting everyone's attention to him again.
The girl whose name was suddenly called was frightened by the sudden sound, but she quickly came to her senses. I guess this girl is not usually a shy person. When she saw her eyes widening, she also scolded loudly:
"Jiang Ming, if you have anything to say, just say it! Why are you shouting so loudly? You are loud to scare people, right?"
"..."
Jiang Ming, who had just taken a breath, was embarrassed on his face, but he still had to bite the bullet and yelled something that had been stirring in his heart for a long time:
"Su Xiaotong! If I finish first in the 1,000-meter race this time, will you be my girlfriend?"
This sentence not only stunned the little girl opposite, but also made the melon-eating couple secretly observing from the side utter two words of exclamation in tacit understanding:
"Wow~"
After a while, Su Xiaotong was anxious and shy, and refuted loudly:
"Who would be your girlfriend just because of this?! And where do you have so much confidence that I will definitely agree to it? You... do you want to run or not? I'm leaving!"
After saying these words, the already furious girl turned around suddenly and left the scene angrily.
"Su Xiaotong——! I will definitely catch you! You must wait for me at the finish line!"
Jiang Ming persevered and was even proud of the courage he showed. After a while, he made a fist to cheer himself up and left with something to say.
It can be seen that he is very confident about the upcoming competition.
After the people walked away, He Tianran and Cao Aiqing finally walked out from the shadow of the corner. They looked at the direction in which they left. He Tianran smiled and said:
"I really didn't expect that we would encounter something like this. Ai Qing, you said this high school student is so good. He won't be afraid of hitting the south wall..."
"Pity……"
"Um?"
Cao Aiqing sighed for no reason. He Tianran looked at her confused, and the girl explained to her lover:
"It's a pity that the girl doesn't seem to have a good impression of the boy. If it continues like this, it will not only cause trouble to the girl, but it may also be difficult for the boy to end it..."
He Tianran nodded, fantasized for a moment, shuddered all over, and asked curiously:
"Do you care more about boys or girls? Now I just think about the little boy named Jiang Ming who confessed his love in public after running across the finish line, and then the girl was helpless to reject him. I really tightened my toes and died for him.
This kind of thing needs to be done according to the concubine's will. It might be the highlight of life. If it is a one-sided impulse, it will be a black history. "
Cao Aiqing smiled and said:
"Of course you said it just now, only high school students can do this kind of thing. Maybe it's a good thing to bump into each other like this, because I think no matter what the outcome of this matter is, for the two of them, The scene that happened now should be unforgettable for a lifetime..."
He Tianran couldn't help but teased: "Why, do you like this way of showing love?"
Cao Aiqing was stunned, and then asked in a joking tone: "Can you still do such a thing now?"
Upon hearing this, He Tianran shook his head like a rattle with a look of rejection.
"What do you mean now? I have never done this kind of thing. This is so stupid and shameful. And how could I have been notified in advance for doing this kind of thing? I get goosebumps all over my body just thinking about it."
The girl's eyes were full of calmness, and she seemed to have expected this answer. After smiling gently, she reached out her hand and gently smoothed the folds of Lihe's natural collar, without letting the topic continue.
This suit on the man,
After all,
It’s no longer a school uniform…
"Actually, looking back now, I feel that nothing spectacular happened during our student days. Ai Qing, do you feel regretful?"
He Tianran stared at his lover who was arranging his collar. He was sensitively aware of something, but he wanted to express it but could not sum it up accurately in words, so he took the initiative to ask about the regretful past details between the two.
Cao Aiqing was stunned.
But her answer was straightforward.
"No."
"...Really?" He Tianran was doubtful.
"Do you love me?"
"of course!"
"Then there will be no regrets between us!"
The girl was so sure of her feelings, and the smile on her face was so bright that He Tianran thought that the trace of disappointment he had just captured from the other person was an illusion.
…
…
Half an hour later, Cao Aiqing found Bai Tingting waving to him at the edge of the playground stand.
"Where's Xue Yong?"
Cao Aiqing approached and saw that only her best friend was present, and immediately sat down next to her and asked.
After hearing this, Bai Tingting looked around:
"I was answering the phone nearby just now. I guess I went to the toilet. You ask me, where is Brother Tianran?"
"He went to buy us water halfway."
Bai Tingting complained:
"Brother Tianran is better. He knows how to be considerate. Unlike Xue Yong, who realizes day by day that there is no proper way to play wildly. His character is not as mature as that of the juniors on the playground. His mother was talking to him two days ago. I called him and told him that he was not happy with teaching him how to do business at home and asked me to give him more advice."
Cao Aiqing narrowed his eyes and started joking:
"Xue Yong is said to be playing around all day long. Aren't you also having a great time? You guys traveled to Southeast Asia some time ago, and you don't know who is showing off in the circle of friends."
Bai Tingting's face turned red:
"Oh, that's because his mother insisted that I go with him...I didn't have this plan at the beginning..."
Speaking of this, Bai Tingting suddenly asked in a low voice:
"By the way Ai Qing, you and... cough... you and Brother Tianran have been together for more than a year. When... did you... um... do that?"
"What...that...ah! Bai Tingting! It's not like that time when you went on a trip..."
Cao Aiqing hadn't recovered from it at first. As he said these words, his pupils could not help but shrink, his eyes widened, and he was a little excited and became incoherent.
"Oh, Cao Aiqing! Can you please stop being so loud and reacting so loudly! We are adults! We are adults!"
The two girls were so surprised that their faces turned red, but even though they were like this, they couldn't help but communicate in a low voice:
"Ai Qing... this is my first time... I just... just want to ask... are Xue Yong and I going too fast?"
"It's...it's okay..."
Seeing her best friend hesitating, Bai Tingting, who was originally asking for advice, became more and more suspicious:
"Ai Qing, you won't be with Brother Tianran for a year...you won't be here..."
"That's enough, stop it, Bai Tingting!"
"No way!"
"Bai! Ting! Ting!"
The two girls started fighting with red faces.
"Students from all grades participating in the men's 1,000-meter final are asked to go to the starting line to prepare. Please pay attention. Students on the plastic track, please do not stay and please move out of the track. Thank you."
At this time, a female voice reminded her on the playground. Cao Aiqing looked for the sound and saw that it was the girl named Su Xiaotong whom she had met before. She was holding a loudspeaker in her hand and organizing the scene.
The specifications of this kind of high school sports meeting are definitely not too formal. Many events are also competed together. There is a race on the track. The middle lawn is for long jump, high jump and other events. Most of the student spectators will not sit calmly in the stands. Anyway, when encountering If there is an item of interest, a group of people can gather together to watch it up close.
Not many people sign up for the men's 1,000-meter race. For a popular event like the 100-meter race, anyone can run and have to go through several rounds of screening competitions. But for a 1,000-meter race, which is extremely tiring, you can just come up. It's the final.
The 400-meter plastic track in Hong Kong is one circle, and the 1,000-meter track is two and a half circles. Because the entire track needs to be cleared, it is usually held in the second half of track and field events.
"Students participating in the men's 1,000-meter race, please take your places. We will start immediately. Anyone who is not involved in the race should leave the track."
There was also an announcement on the school's radio, and Su Xiaotong in the audience was stunned. When other projects started before, they were a group of students who shouted with loudspeakers. The radio station had never given such treatment, so you can imagine. Thinking about it, there seems to be nothing wrong with this.
In the stands, Bai Tingting looked at the radio station cabin to the north with some confusion on her face.
"Ai Qing... do you think... the announcer's voice just now sounds a bit familiar?"
"Really? I didn't pay attention."
Cao Aiqing said nothing, and Bai Tingting no longer hesitated. The two girls returned to the starting line and followed the competition from a distance.
As the participating students stepped onto the track and began to prepare, the cheers of cheers from the surrounding classes also began to come in an endless stream. Among them, there are contestants with attitude that can be seen by looking at their clothes. There are vests, shorts and sneakers like Jiang Ming. They look very formal track and field athletes; there are also all-rounders who are wearing uniforms and will probably participate in basketball games later; of course, there are also two buddies who just wear school uniforms and trousers and go on the field, and one of them with long hair specifically mentions Pulling up the trouser legs reveals the strong muscles of the calves...
In short, when it comes to campus sports meets, it’s good to be a little particular about it, but you don’t have to be so particular about it.
During the broadcast, the "Review March" that had been playing in a loop came to an abrupt end. Everyone didn't pay much attention to it, and their attention was on the contestants. As the PE teacher blew the preparatory whistle, the contestants also started to pose. The starting action.
Decided to flap my wings and fly, determined not to look back hesitantly
What we are looking at is that piece of blue sky...
As an official whistle broke the brief silence before the start of the game, the participating students were like arrows leaving the string, their feet rang in response, and they sprinted forward one after another!
At this time, a piece of music with a deliberately gentle prelude sounded at the right time, and the students watching the competition also recalled the somewhat familiar melody.
"This song is..."Blue Bird"? It's also the Chinese version."
"Wow, "Naruto", our school's radio station finally came to its senses."
"Oh ho ho, if you want me to compete, I'll just run away as a ninja."
"Hey, which class is that guy with long hair tied up in? Can we have such long hair in our school?"
…
I have never truly understood what sadness is
Then we set off to explore the pain
You and I have hoped diligently and cherished ardent ideals
It’s the power of just a few words today…
"Ai Qing... am I right? The boy on the innermost track... seems to be... He Tianran, right?"
In the stands, Bai Tingting put up an awning with her hands and watched the boy who looked exactly like He Tianran on the runway running past directly in front of them. She was about to confirm with her best friend beside her, but she confirmed with just one glance that it was He Tianran himself. Unmistakably, Cao Aiqing had already stood up, her eyes following her boyfriend's running back!
She stood there in disbelief for three or four seconds, and then the usually reserved girl quickly jumped off the stand without saying a word.
The girl didn't understand why the well-behaved and well-dressed He Tianran would reappear in the campus sports meeting as a high school student like magic...
But the girl knew that the boy who kept running on the track must wish that he was on the sidelines instead of just watching from a distance.
There is this understanding between them.
"Ai Qing, wait for me!"
Bai Tingting followed closely behind her, and soon the two of them squeezed into the crowd of onlookers.
…
He Tianran deliberately controlled his pace and breathing on the track. The initial sprint put him in the third position in the front, always about two meters away from the leader Jiang Ming.
These juniors, who are sixteen or seventeen years old and whose hormones are exploding, obviously did not throw him far away from the veteran who has been accustomed to sitting in the office for the past year. This is due to He Tianran's years of cultivation. He Tianran is only twenty-three years old at this time. His body is fully developed and his physical fitness is at the peak of his life. Therefore, compared with these junior students who are still developing, who can compete in the end? There's no telling who will be the animal.
However, the one in front of him, Jiang Ming, is indeed a good athlete. Looking at his running posture, you can tell that he has practiced regularly. He should be a sports student. Otherwise, he would not be able to easily say that if he wins first place, he will do whatever he wants.
He Tianran's plan is also simple. In the first two 800 meters, just follow him and keep from being blown away. In the last 200 meters, if you still have some energy left, you can explode and fight to the end.
In his sight, more and more people were watching on both sides of the track. He seemed to have completed a lap and returned to the starting line. Among the crowd, he saw a familiar girl, with her hands folded on her chest and her fair cheeks. His face was flushed with excitement and anticipation.
The distance between the two became closer and closer, and the cheers and cheers in their ears became louder and louder. However, the girl just moved the corner of her mouth slightly, and the noise around her seemed to quiet down, and time passed by as the two of them passed by. The passing second was stretched infinitely.
An extremely clear word of concern emerged naturally from the bottom of He Tianran's heart:
"Why?"
She was wondering why she was on this runway.
He Tianran kept walking, with a boyish smile on his face as he hurried past.
"For you!"
This was a silent and firm answer that Cao Aiqing got from his fleeting face and from the momentarily separated eyes of the two.
The noise all around suddenly resumed, and the young man left behind a running figure. He brought up a gust of wind, blowing the girl's hair and touching her heartstrings.
Bai Tingting finally squeezed to Cao Aiqing's side and asked anxiously:
"What's up, do you see clearly? That person is really Brother Tianran?! Ai Qing, how did you know for sure that he was running from so far away?"
Cao Aiqing looked at her lover's back from afar, with light flowing in her eyes, and she laughed unconsciously.
"Because...he will shine."
"……ah?"
Just when Bai Tingting was still confused about the situation, Cao Aiqing, who had always been quiet and virtuous, made an unexpected move. She saw the girl put one hand to her mouth, raised the other hand into a fist and waved it back and forth over her head, towards her beloved With his back, he used all his strength and shouted:
"Hello! Come on!!!!"
Unknown world, obsessed with illusion
Wake up suddenly, look firm
Towards the boundless distance
Open your wings!
…
At the other end, the school radio station has a panoramic view of the playground.
"Fuck, brother Tianran started to speed up in the middle. Come on, come on, brother, how do you increase the volume of this thing? Give me the BGM to the maximum!"
Xue Yong stood up in front of the console and looked out the window. He didn't know whether he saw He Tianran starting to catch up with the second place, or the music reached the hottest part. He was so excited that he repeatedly urged the juniors around him to help increase the volume. .
The young boy wearing glasses next to him felt aggrieved. He was wearing a pair of glasses and a suit that didn't fit his figure well. When he heard this, he had a look of rejection on his face and stuttered:
"Brother... well... there are regulations on the decibel volume of the college broadcast. If you exceed it, you will be scolded by the teachers... And if you play like this... you will really be punished afterwards..."
Xue Yong hated this kind of guy who was a spoiler of fun. He originally wanted to look back angrily, but when he saw the other person's funny look, most of his anger was gone. He said in an angry and funny tone:
"Oh, you're so scared. Do you know who the guy who took off your clothes just now was? His father donated money when our new school building in Hong Kong was built! His name is engraved on the cornerstone, you know I mean, right?!”
"This...this is really against the rules, really unacceptable..."
"Oh shit, just tell me which button controls the volume. I can't blame you for this. Hey, it's such a simple thing."
Xue Yong waved his hand, drove away the junior boy and took over the console himself. The junior boy shivered and pointed towards a knob and the sliding row of keys above. Then, Young Master Xue, who had never known the heights of the world, transformed into a human being on the spot. The DJ, who was playing DJ, opened the bow left and right, twisted the knob in the direction marked "+" with one hand, pressed the slide key with the other hand, and after pulling it twice, it rushed directly to the top!
The moment he lowered his head, he saw the brown calfskin Oxford shoes on his feet. He touched his head and said proudly:
"Fortunately, I wore a pair of sneakers today. Otherwise, Mr. He would be able to run in these shoes today without falling and eating shit."
…
Break through the clouds and soar, rush into the place you once dreamed of, break away from everything and soar
Over there, over there, the blue sky...
The electric piano and shamisen intertwined to create a surging melody, and the passionate singing of Chuu Er made He Tianran's adrenaline surge rapidly. His legs became faster and faster, his strides became longer and longer, and he was unstoppable. , the sudden acceleration also caused a burst of exclamation from the onlookers.
He had already surpassed the original second place, and while he was struggling to catch up, Jiang Ming, who was originally in the lead, also entered the final sprint stage ahead of schedule. The two of them were leading each other. When the second lap was completed, the rest of the contestants They have been left far behind.
Jiang Ming never expected that a dark horse would unexpectedly emerge in the one-thousand-meter race. He looked sideways and was shocked. Wasn't this the man with whom he had a quarrel before?
Isn't he...a graduated senior?
How could he appear next to him at this time?
Jiang Ming, who was running, knew that talking in the middle would delay his speed, but he still couldn't help but cursed:
"Who the hell are you? What do you want to do?!"
He Tianran stabilized his breathing rate, turned to look at Jiang Ming, grinned, and said something that would make people angry and not worth their lives:
"Huh~ What do I want to do? I want to run first and then confess my love to the school beauty!"
"Fuck...I said&%%￥..."
Jiang Ming's coquettish little bangs were so angry that he sped up again, suddenly leading He Tianran by half a body.
Jiang Ming, who has practiced track and field for more than half a year, still has two skills. The alternating competition just now gave him a general understanding of He Tianran's level. The one-thousand-meter run is not only a combination of explosive power and endurance. Considering that there are some forcing techniques, he believes that as long as he blocks the inner lane and maintains his full strength until the last moment, he can completely take advantage of the opponent's half-step distance and win the final victory!
Now there is only a hundred meters away from the finish line. Both people on the track are running forward as hard as they can, not daring to relax at all.
For He Tianran, who had never experienced track and field competitions, it was already an excellent result to be able to achieve this result. However, until he finished the last corner of the race, he never found a chance to surpass Jiang Ming on the outside track, and when the corner turned straight , the little advantage of the inner channel is revealed...
Knowing that one day, I will fall and become disabled
Even so, my heart is still searching for the one that belongs to me
My light
The time for a song is four and a half minutes, and the passing time for an ordinary high school boy to run a thousand meters is almost the same.
But now there is only the last chorus left in the song, and it will take at least more than a minute to end.
And the finish line of one thousand meters is already in front of the two of them!
"Won!"
Jiang Ming was ecstatic, eight meters, six meters, two meters...
The finish line pulled up by the classmates on both sides of his eyes was very close. Jiang Ming subconsciously bent down to hit the finish line. But at this moment, he saw Su Xiaotong standing not far away with a shocked face. The students around him also It was like playing in slow motion, and the mouth opened wide...
What's going on here?
A question arose in Jiang Ming's mind, and soon, he had the answer...
Decided to flap my wings and fly, determined not to look back hesitantly
Where we look, there is that piece of blue sky...
In mid-air, a black shadow spread past him. He looked sideways and saw that He Tianran's body was completely horizontal in the air. He surpassed Jiang Ming with a leap of fish and rushed to the finish line!
This completely lifeless way of crossing the line shocked everyone present, including his opponents, and finally gained a few tenths of a second, allowing He Tianran to be the first to touch the line with his forehead, winning a game that didn't seem so important. The ultimate victory in the 1,000-meter race...
Does this man not want his life?
“Puff, puff—bang!”
When He Tianran landed, his chest came into contact with the plastic floor, and he fell directly onto a hard bridge. Not to mention the inertia, his body rolled on the ground twice more, and then he stopped moving.
"ah--"
Su Xiaotong, who was closest to him, first exclaimed, then hurriedly knelt down to check his condition and said anxiously:
"Classmate? Classmate, are you okay? Please go to the infirmary and call the school doctor..."
"Ahem~ It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine, don't make a fuss...I won, right? I won, right?"
"You... um... you win."
He Tianran, who was almost hugged by the little girl, coughed twice and interrupted the other party's help. He slowly got up from the ground and patted his clothes...
Of course he was in pain. It was strange that such a hard fall didn't hurt, and he also felt a little tight in his chest. But at this moment, compared to the handsome guy he was about to play, nothing else mattered. As long as he could stand up, he would be in pain. It's probably okay, no matter how painful your body is, you have to endure it.
If you win, nothing will happen!
"Classmate, can I lend you the speaker?"
"You...what do you do?"
Without waiting for anyone to react, He Tianran suddenly said to Su Xiaotong beside him.
"No, who the hell are you! You're not from our school, are you?! You must be sick!"
Seeing his goddess being talked to, Jiang Ming, who was still chewing the taste of failure, finally got angry. Some of his buddies in the crowd also gathered around him, and after hearing his words, they also started clamoring for him.
"That's right, you're not from our school, why are you here to join in the fun!"
"That's right, the first place belongs to Mingzai. His one doesn't count at all. Where does this lunacy come from!"
"Come on, brothers, get started and blast him out quickly!"
The people around Jiang Ming were filled with indignation, and just when the team was about to attack He Tianran, they heard a "whoosh" sound coming from the crowd of bystanders, and the eyes of several boys who were about to step forward went dark. The stool flew past their eyes and immediately hit the ground, shattering into pieces!
"Who? Who the hell is going to attack my brother? Come on, come on, stand up and let your brother Yong open his eyes!"
At this time, the crowd parted, and a tall boy with short hair walked out. He was holding another stool in his hand. He thrust it towards the middle and challenged Jiang Ming and his group arrogantly.
The person coming was none other than Xue Yong. Since the finish line was under the stands of the broadcasting station, he was already waiting in the crowd when He Tianran crossed the line.
I have to say that these five years of high school tyrants are not for nothing. In addition, he has developed a strong physique through boxing in the past few years. His momentum is beyond what a few high school boys can match together.
Jiang Ming and his group, who had been shouting just now, were as silent as ice. Xue Yong took the opportunity to joke:
"Who says we are not from Hong Kong Central University? I'm Xue Yong, Class 2, Senior Grade 2, and my buddy He Tianran, Class 2, Senior Grade 2, go and find out on your own!"
"..."
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn’t know the truth. There were actually students from Class 2 of the current senior year who didn’t dare to say a word. They thought to themselves, when did there be such a number two person in my class?
"Classmate, can you lend me your speaker~"
Ignoring the quarrel between Xue Yong and Jiang Ming for the time being, He Tianran was discussing with Su Xiaotong.
"You...what are you going to do?"
Su Xiaotong obediently took off the speaker from her neck, looked at the long-haired boy in front of her, and said in confusion.
"I want to confess my love to the school beauty!"
"you……"
It wasn't that Su Xiaotong was sentimental, but at this moment, her face turned red and her heart began to beat rapidly.
The boy in front of me, who rushed towards the finish line with all his life, his chin was bleeding, but he could still laugh, is indeed... a bit inexplicably handsome!
He Tianran, who didn't know what the girl opposite was thinking, took the speaker, turned on the switch, tried his voice twice, and said loudly:
"Ahem, cough, dear classmates, I... He Tianran, Class 2, Grade 3, was lucky enough to take first place today, so I took this opportunity to express my love to a girl..."
The originally chaotic scene was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, but it was only for a moment. Then a whisper started, and then some girls couldn't help it anymore. They covered their mouths and whispered "Oh." "——" the protracted sound made the group of boys also become restless.
Whether he was a student of his own school, whether he was number one or number two, these didn't seem to be the most important at the moment He Tianran said he wanted to express his feelings publicly.
Those taboo topics about youth are like a piece of mint-flavored Mentos candy. When it is thrown into a Coke can called "Youth", it will stir up a boil.
"When I was fifteen or sixteen, I fell in love with a girl with a ponytail. I always wanted to be at the same table with her, and I always wanted to be better. When the teacher praised me, she would look back at me.
I always wanted to grow my hair longer so that I might look more handsome. I fantasized about talking to her and watching the sunrise and sunset together at the beach..."
These private youthful emotions were transmitted to the ears of every student present through the loudspeaker.
He Tianran didn't lie, he had done it before.
It was at the beginning of the first semester of the third year of high school. After the first exam, the introverted He Tianran kept using his own way to get close to the people he loved.
Not everything needs to be pushed by others.
Now, many years later, he finally had the courage to put on his school uniform again, holding his head high and talking loudly about this beautiful memory that will never be erased:
"My ultimate goal is to show her my feelings before the end of the summer.
I have imagined countless times that she is standing in the light spot under the big tree in the playground, so close to me, I can clearly see her pupils, she takes my hand, and her smile is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts flutter. Even the dancing shadows of the ponytail and skirt on the ground are so thrilling.
I stared at her and laughed happily. At that moment, I thought I must spend my whole life with this girl in the sunshine! "
The young man's voice was so sonorous and his words were so romantic. He stood in the crowd, and everyone's eyes were attracted to him.
The boy who ran hard and risked his life in exchange for crossing the finish line, even if he was standing in a group of teenagers, he could still become the center of the crowd!
And this time, he doesn't need anyone's help.
Whether it's middle school, passionate, or romantic...
Some things in He Tianran's bones are innate and do not need anyone to give them to him.
"So, today I finally have a chance to make up for this regret loudly, so I want to express my love to Cao Aiqing, Class 2, Grade 3 -"
Cao Aiqing?
When everyone heard this unfamiliar name, they looked around until their eyes, following He Tianran's, locked on a girl wearing a white dress.
That girl was so beautiful and refined, standing in the crowd like an independent white crane. If He Tianran hadn't attracted everyone's attention, people would have discovered her long ago.
At this time, the girl's eyes were also staring at the boy who was about to confess his love to her. There was something crystal clear in the corner of her eyes...
Everyone was waiting with bated breath for what He Tianran would say next, with their hearts in their throats.
The boy pursed his dry lips, and his slightly trembling palms made the trumpet in his hand tremble slightly.
He was also nervous.
"Cao Aiqing..."
He called her name, with some thoughts brewing in his mouth that he had not yet had time to express.
"OK!"
The girl didn't wait for him to finish speaking before she gave her answer.
Tears streaked down her cheeks. She was obviously crying, but she was smiling so beautifully.
"...Would you like to be my girlfriend?"
"good."
"Will you be my lover?"
"OK."
"How about we get married——!"
“I said yes, yes, yes—!”
The next moment, the trumpet was thrown high into the sky.
In this campus that symbolizes youth, in the playground where sweat and tears are shed, at a certain moment in the long youth of a group of boys and girls, they witnessed a man and woman embracing each other tightly because of the beauty of love.
