Time flies and it's time for school to end again.
On this day, the two did not speak again.
Gu Xu followed Lan Ruosi, looking at her back as she moved closer and closer to him.
He felt that the relationship between the two seemed to be one step closer, but also seemed to be one step further away. It was very subtle.
The closer step was because Lan Ruosi told herself the reason why she had deliberately distanced herself from her these past few days.
This shows that she is willing to speak her mind to herself.
It was further away because the space between their desks was larger. Lan Ruosi deliberately sat on the edge of the desk. She only occupied one third of the desk.
Gu Xu could tell that Lan Ruosi was deliberately alienating herself.
Zhang Song was walking beside Gu Xu and wanted to say something, but when he saw Gu Xu's expression, he knew that he was not in the mood.
In Zhang Song's eyes, Gu Xu was listless and distracted every day during this period, and his mood was like a roller coaster, good and bad.
When Gu Xu chased Hua Jingjing before, he had never seen Gu Xu like this.
As the two of them were walking, they suddenly heard several girls talking about Lan Ruosi.
These girls happen to be the same ones who talked about Lan Ruosi before.
"Did you hear that she and Gu Xu were called to the office today?" said the short-haired girl.
"I heard it was because of the kiss." said the girl with the ponytail.
"Are they going to be scrutinized? Maybe they will be reviewed at the flag-raising ceremony. I really want to hear them review," said the girl with braids.
The girl with short hair said: "What's the point of reviewing? People like this should be kicked out of the school."
Gu Xu clenched his fists and walked up: "What are you talking about?"
The girl with long braids looked horrified: "Gu Xu!"
The ponytail girl said timidly: "We didn't say anything."
"Didn't you say?" Gu Xu's voice rose, "Do you think I'm deaf?"
The ponytail girl subconsciously took a step back.
The short-haired girl was unconvinced: "Why, now that you've done it, are you still afraid of what others will say?"
The long-braided girl tugged on the short-haired girl's clothes and whispered, "Stop talking."
"Which of your eyes saw us kissing in the classroom?" Gu Xu said sharply.
The girl with short hair added, "The entire senior year of high school knows that you guys kissed in the classroom."
The entire senior year of high school?
Gu Xu's heart tightened. It spread faster than she imagined. The entire senior year of high school actually knew about it.
"I don't hit girls, but I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense again. If you talk nonsense again, I can't spare you." Gu Xu said seriously.
"Hmph!" The short-haired girl looked disdainful, "Since you dare to do it, why are you afraid of others telling you?"
Gu Xu sneered: "Which class are you in? What's your name?"
The ponytail girl interjected: "Gu Xu, we really didn't say anything."
After she finished speaking, she hurriedly dragged away the girls with short hair and the girls with long braids.
Gu Xu looked at Zhang Song beside him: "Do you know him?"
Gu Xu asked Zhang Song habitually. Zhang Song has a very good memory, and he basically knows everyone in the senior year of high school.
Zhang Song nodded: "I know you. I'm from Class 2 of Senior High School. The one with long braids is named Zhang Qianqian, the one with ponytail is named Yang Yunyun, and the one with short hair is named Chen Lingling."
Gu Xu's expression was serious: "You try to keep an eye on them to see if the recent rumors are from them."
"Okay, I'll ask tomorrow."
Gu Xu added: "We must find the source!"
Gu Xu was really serious. He hated women who talked nonsense behind her back like this.
*
The three of them ran very far in one breath.
Chen Lingling was very dissatisfied: "Yunyun, why are you pulling me? I'm not afraid of Gu Xu. Does he still dare to hit me in broad daylight?"
Zhang Qianqian answered: "Yes, I think so too."
Yang Yunyun said: "Gu Xu is not someone to be trifled with. We should stay away from him. I think it's better not to talk about it in the future."
"There is nothing to be afraid of. Gu Xu is always a scumbag. Maybe he will make some mistake and be expelled from the school one day." Chen Lingling added.
"Yes, you can do things like kissing in the classroom, and there's nothing else you can't do." Zhang Qianqian continued.
The three of them continued to talk about Gu Xu and Lan Ruosi's classroom kiss.

Gu Xu continued to walk forward from the classroom until he walked out of the school gate and arrived near the bus stop.
"My God, these girls have such rich imaginations!" Zhang Song said.
Gu Xu shook his head irritably, he had nothing to say.
Along the way, they kept hearing the girls talking about his and Lan Ruosi's "classroom kiss."
Gu Xu felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. No wonder she had been so cold to him these days. It turned out to be because she had been talked about too much and couldn't bear the pressure of rumors.
He came to the bus stop, where Lan Ruosi was still waiting for the bus.
"She hasn't left yet, should we follow her?" Zhang Song asked.
"Forget it, at this time, let's take a seat!"
Gu Xu didn't want to cause trouble for her before she found out what was going on.
Route 17 came, and the driver opened the door and closed it again. There were too many people, and the driver didn't want to take anyone with him.
Lan Ruosi had no choice but to wait again.
Not long after, another bus came again. As expected, there were much fewer people on this bus than before.
The car arrived, and Lan Ruosi was caught in the middle of the crowd. Although she was passive, she still pushed forward with all her strength.
She felt that her life was like this every day, living in the cracks. Only by pushing forward with all her strength could she have room to survive.
She got out of the car and ran back as usual.
She wanted to go home as quickly as possible to cook, and then deliver it to her mother at the Flower Square.
It was very hard for my mother to sell fruit there alone.
She went home and cooked a meal, then came out of the alley with her lunch box and prepared to walk to the Flower Square.
"Blue bastard!" Huang Xuanxuan stood in front of her, blocking her way.
Wu Wenwen and two other girls stood behind her.
Lan Ruosi lowered her head, tried to pretend she couldn't see it, and walked forward.
Lan Ruosi went to the left, and Huang Xuanxuan was blocking her on the left. Lan Ruosi went to the right, and Huang Xuanxuan went to the right.
"What?" Huang Xuanxuan's voice rose, "Transferred to No. 2 Middle School, someone is covering us up and doesn't recognize us anymore?"
Lan Ruosi lowered her head, wondering: Someone is covering her?
What does she mean?
When Huang Xuanxuan saw Lan Ruosi didn't say anything, she said angrily: "When old classmates meet, they don't even say hello. Is it appropriate?"
Lan Ruosi was not an impolite person. She knew that they were here to cause trouble for her, so how could they say hello.
Huang Xuanxuan saw the lunch box in her hand, she glanced at Wu Wenwen again, and Wu Wenwen snatched the lunch box from Lan Ruosi's hand.
"What are you going to do?" Lan Ruosi suddenly looked up at her lunch box.
That was her mother's dinner. If something went wrong, what would her mother eat?
"Ouch, why are you so nervous?" Huang Xuanxuan raised her voice with a smirk on her face, "We just want to see what's inside!"
Huang Xuanxuan said and looked at Wu Wenwen, who opened the lunch box.
"No!" Lan Ruosi tried to grab it.
