86, the season of poetry(2/2)
"This exam was good." Chen's father heard about his results and said with a smile, "I have made a lot of progress."
It was in a provincial capital, where top students were everywhere, and it was amazing to have advanced by dozens of places.
"Dad, I want to rent a house outside the school." Chen Sheng said suddenly while eating.
"That won't work. How unsafe would it be to live outside the school?" Chen's mother rejected it without even thinking about it.
"The electricity in the dormitory is cut off at 11 o'clock, and there is no hot water in the shower. I can't continue studying." Chen Sheng had already found an excuse. "It's a waste of time to come back on Saturdays and Sundays. I can just rent a house and stay there to study."
"
Hearing this, instead of seriously considering it, the Chen family couple looked at him seriously, "Son, tell us honestly, did you do something bad when you went to school?"
"Are you still obsessed with playing games?"
Chen Sheng: "..."
"Why haven't I seen you study so hard before?" Father Chen expressed doubt.
"I used to be number one, so what else do I need to study? Now I'm ranked among the hundreds." Chen Sheng said with a reluctance to admit defeat in his tone, "I want to take it seriously."
This reason barely convinced the Chen couple, and the two of them discussed, "Who will cook for you when you go out? How about asking your grandma to accompany you to study? Anyway, your grandma is fine at home, so you should accompany her."
"Don't, it puts too much pressure on me. I'm such an adult, I can do it alone." Chen Sheng shied away and stayed with him to study. Please spare him.
Finally, with his persuasion, the Chens and his wife went to the provincial capital with him the next day to look for a house.
Chen Sheng led them to the house rented by Ji Shishi.
"We have no house to rent here," said a young woman.
Chen Sheng's heart skipped a beat.
"How about we rent somewhere else?" Mother Chen was quite satisfied with this building. It was close to the school and it was a newly built building. She also felt it was a bit of a pity.
Chen Sheng began to lose interest.
"Excuse me for disturbing you." Father Chen thanked him.
Just when she was about to walk out the door, Ji Shishi came down from upstairs. She was not wearing a school uniform today. She was wearing a white dress. She looked pure and clean. She was also carrying a bag of garbage in her hand. She was also startled when she saw the three of them.
Startled.
Then, she called Chen Father and Chen Mother. She had never taught her, but they were both teachers, so she called her teacher.
"Squad leader, do you want to rent a house?" Ji Shishi asked.
Chen Sheng didn't reply to her, he hadn't calmed down yet, he thought she was really pretty.
"That's right, little girl, you live here? It's a pity that there is no house here." Chen's father was still very impressed by Ji Shishi. He and his son were admitted to the provincial No. 1 Middle School together, and their scores were higher than his own son.
"Didn't Uncle Xu say that the uncle across from my room doesn't want to rent?" Ji Shishi hesitated and looked at the landlord aside to ask.
"I haven't heard of it. I'll call and ask." The landlady called the steward.
The lease of the house opposite had not expired, but I really didn’t want to rent it anymore and couldn’t return it, so I had to endure it. When I heard that someone wanted to move in and was willing to pay the rent, I quickly decided to move out.
Chen Sheng moved in and lived opposite Ji Shishi. His room was larger and he could see the school playground from the room.
The Chen couple wanted to invite Ji Shishi to have a meal with them, and their attitude was quite enthusiastic. As teachers, they like children who study well.
The more you look at it, the better it becomes.
Ji Shishi was not used to being in contact with others and shyly refused.
Chen Sheng didn't speak the whole time. In fact, he didn't know what to say. He was a little disappointed that she didn't go, but thinking about it, she wouldn't go either.
"How is that child studying now?" Mother Chen was curious.
"I don't know." Chen Sheng shook his head, "I don't know."
"They are all from the same class. You should at least show some concern and make an appointment when you come back so that you can have a companion." Mother Chen warned him.
Chen Sheng responded perfunctorily and lowered his head while eating, as if he didn't care, but his eyes were twinkling, and he was absent-mindedly eating.
He happily moved out of the dormitory and stayed across the street. Now he had more opportunities to meet, but he didn't expect that Ji Shishi wouldn't go out.
It seems like you are cooking and eating in your room? There is no one around on Saturdays and Sundays.
Even though he lived across the street, he couldn't touch her. In the end, he observed her school and departure times and concluded the pattern: she liked to go out at the same time in the morning, noon and evening, but she got up earlier and endorsed books in her room.
If he stuck a little, he could almost touch her.
"Hello, monitor." When she saw him, she would always say hello first, her tone flat, as if she had completed some kind of task.
She would not take the initiative to talk while walking on the street. When she got to the street where the school was selling soy milk, she would go up and buy a cup of soy milk, usually black bean soy milk.
No wonder her hair is so black and shiny.
She would politely ask Chen Sheng if he wanted to drink it. He actually hated soy milk, but he still nodded from time to time.
When he arrived at the classroom, Ji Shishi would wave to him, say goodbye and then walk back to the classroom.
Anyway, it was just like following the procedure, without any expression. Her eyes seemed to only be reading, and nothing else could attract her attention.
The more Chen Sheng observed and got closer to her, the more interesting he became.
Ji Shishi has a strong system for doing things and has her own set of procedures. When and when to do things, they are all fixed.
If you want to interfere with other things and deprive her of her time, it is equivalent to a crime.
The two of them walked together during class and went back together after class. They spent more time together and had more topics to talk about.
Although Ji Shishi doesn't talk much, the words she occasionally says are quite funny. If you talk to her about studying, she will talk more.
Chen Sheng felt very relaxed every time he walked back with her, and unconsciously, he began to look forward to that short period of time.
Just when he was happy, he suddenly couldn't touch her.
No matter whether it was early or late, he never met her at the stairs. Once, he had to wait until class and never saw her.
He didn't meet her for a week, and even when he came back, he didn't see anyone.
The more he thought about it, the more something was wrong, so he waited for her downstairs at night.
Ji Shishi came back half an hour later than usual. Seeing that he was still a little guilty, she quickly called out, "Monitor."
"Where have you been?" Chen Sheng turned into a question as soon as he asked. He was stunned and quickly explained, "It's quite late now. I came down to buy dinner."
"Me too, I'm going to have dinner."
She didn't know how to lie, and she made many little tricks when lying. Chen Sheng could tell at a glance, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He said bluntly, "I haven't seen you in the past few days."
"Ah? I left earlier." She explained hurriedly and squeezed out a smile, "It's just, it's hard to meet her."
"Are you avoiding me?" Chen Sheng stared at her and asked.
"No, why should I hide from you? No." Ji Shishi said and walked into the building, "What can I hide from you? The final exam is coming, monitor, have you reviewed it?"
"You have to ask yourself why I'm hiding from you." Chen Sheng ignored her question and followed her behind.
He has been a person who gets whatever he wants since he was a child. He has been a top student valued by his teachers since he was a child. He never gets what he wants. He doesn't know his feelings for Ji Shishi. Anyway, he is very uncomfortable.
, very unhappy, inexplicably unhappy.
Ji Shishi walked up with her head lowered.
"Explain." Chen Sheng looked at her silently, scratching his heart. How could someone torture someone like this? He didn't even know what he had done wrong?
When she arrived at the door, Ji Shishi opened the door and looked at him with a troubled face. She said in a small tone, "...it's not good for us to walk together often. Some people may misunderstand. Learning is important."
"sorry."
After she finished speaking, she closed the door with a bang.
Chen Sheng froze in place, thinking for a long time before he figured out, someone was gossiping about them? Also, what the hell is sorry?
From then on, Chen Sheng occasionally met her on the road, and Ji Shishi either avoided him or walked very fast to keep distance from him. If she couldn't distance herself, she would start trotting with a look of worry on her face.
Anyway, I have to get rid of him before entering school.
Chen Sheng looked at her like this and deliberately approached her at first. He looked at her anxious and guilty face, shrinking her head and neck as if she was being bullied. In the end, he was not willing to embarrass her and took the initiative to pull away.
distance.
The result of this was that Ji Shishi felt guilty towards him, and she would still say hello to him if he met him in the corridor.
Chen Sheng analyzed the pros and cons and decided to take the initiative to distance himself from her. Even if he met her at the school gate, he would take the initiative to distance himself. The more exaggerated the better, Ji Shishi, the little white rabbit, felt more and more guilty.
I always feel that for his own selfish desires, he has to take care of these things.
So, in order to reduce the guilt in my heart, I changed from saying hello to him in the corridor to giving him one or two fruits that I bought myself.
What goes around comes around.
Chen Sheng also bought her fruits for himself, but when he bought cantaloupes, he bought them whole.
Ji Shishi would sometimes look at the cantaloupe he brought with a puzzled look on her face.
"I bought two!" he said.
"Why don't you buy one?" She still didn't understand. "You can cut it up so you can't finish it."
"Cheap!"
