Cage

Sitting in the shade of a tree on the playground, Mo Ling took the ice water and wet handkerchiefs from the girls next to him, and stared intently at the thin boy who was still running laps on the playground. Exams will follow.

Under the venomous sunlight, the boy's face was abnormally white, and his conservative school uniform shirt was drenched with sweat, and he habitually bit his bloodless lower lip, looking very hard-working.

In the 800-meter physical examination, most of the boys had already finished running, and they sat under the shade of a tree to cheer for the female students. Only one boy, Lan Yi, hadn't finished running. His thin body was not very conspicuous among a group of girls, but Mo Ling Still can't move his gaze away.

Many boys around were laughing at Lan Yi, who was still struggling among the women, and some even deliberately yelled at him when he was running around the track, asking him to wear a skirt to PE class next time.

Even if the basketball continued to circle the track without any reaction, the boys still laughed continuously. Some people are like this, and they are born to be treated as a joke by the collective.

But Mo Ling, who was sitting in the center of the classmate, couldn't laugh at all. If he had known this, he wouldn't have acted so hard at noon. Seeing the way the stinky rabbit gritted his teeth, he must have been injured there again, so Mo Ling would do it. I don’t understand, that person’s hind legs were trembling when he came out of his dormitory, but he still insisted on taking some bad physical education exams, that is, adding a few points to the final score. If it’s because of a scholarship, it’s a big deal to help him pay an extra tuition fee. That's good, as for working so hard?

I only saw his legs trembling, trying to push his thin and pitiful body forward, and finally ran across the finish line. The students who ran with him had other students come up to hand water or walk a few steps , only Lan Yi was alone, with one hand under his ribs, moving slowly.

Mo Ling's eyes never left him, waiting for him to look back, at least he thought that at this time, Lan Yi should have looked at him with complaints in his eyes, but the fact is, Lan Yi didn't pay any attention to the gaze he had been following all this time. There was no response, and she didn't even look at him.The neglected disappointment should have turned into anger, but when Mo Ling saw Lan Yi's crumbling body, his body had already reacted for his brain. When he recovered, he had already half hugged and half hugged Lan Yi. Racked in the shade.

Chasing away the students who were sitting in the most ventilated place, ignoring the reluctance of those students, Mo Ling put the basket in place, seeing him looking at the physical education teacher from time to time, he understood clearly, and took the basket. Handing him the half-drunk ice water, Lan Yi thanked him softly, and drank it in small sips.

"Wait here."

After Mo Ling said that, he turned and walked towards the physical education teacher who was still counting the scores. The physical education teacher was a young man who had just graduated from university. When the situation was not good, the physical education teacher generously walked through the back door for him once, and put a check mark on the score sheet in the basket column.

When Mo Ling returned to the shade of the tree, the students who had just been kicked out were sitting in the same place, and the basket had long since disappeared. Thinking about it, I knew it must be the time when he went to find the physical education teacher. He came over to take the place again, and kicked one of the students who was sitting firmly with his feet with a bad face.Seeing that it was Mo Ling, the classmate didn't complain at all, and obediently moved the floor.

As soon as he sat down, Zhang Chao, Yuan Wu (the one who also threw stones at the basket) and others surrounded him.

"Mo Ling, when did you have such a good relationship with that poor boy?" A classmate came over, handed Mo Ling a bottle of unopened mineral water, and asked curiously.

"Huh?" Mo Ling was so focused on what happened just now that he couldn't hear the classmate's words clearly for a while, so he raised his chin, gave him a sideways glance, and motioned him to repeat it, but the classmate would have misunderstood it.

"No...I didn't mean that, it's because I often saw you coming back with that kid at noon these days, and you just handed him water...so I may have misunderstood..."

Mo Ling was a little impatient, and squeezed the water bottle in his hand, "What's the misunderstanding?"
