growing up

These two days, Gu Yuan was actually quite tired. He had never dealt with a group of people like this before. In addition to his busy schedule, he got up early to play again today. Now after seeing them off, he just wanted to go back and have a good rest. .

The students who came this time all had a good relationship with Ling Chao before.During the meal just now, the boys picked up their wine glasses, even if they restrained themselves, they would inevitably have a round of drinking with the host. Ling Chao had to go to class at night, and with his little capacity for alcohol, it was impossible for Gu Yuan to let him drink.Everyone also saw that Gu Yuan had a good capacity for alcohol, and at the end of the day he drank more than three bottles by himself.Although it will not make him feel drunk, his head will be a little groggy.

He leaned against a lamp post, watched Ling Chao close the last car door, and watched the car drive out of the street until he could no longer see it.

At this moment, the party is really over.

The lively scene a few minutes ago was suddenly left with only the two of them.

There was more than half an hour before evening self-study, and their luggage was still at hand. Ling Chao walked over and pulled Gu Yuan's sleeve: "Go to my house and sit for a while?"

Gu Yuan shook his head with a smile and said: "Forget it, if you go back and take a shower, you will go to school. I will go back too."

Ling Chao didn't expect Gu Yuan to refuse. For so long, no matter when, as long as Ling Chao said something, Gu Yuan almost never disagreed.

"Are you...are you still unhappy about what happened in the afternoon?" Ling Chao also struggled for a long time. He wanted to tell Gu Yuan, but he didn't know how to start.And there has never been a suitable opportunity to talk about this matter today.

"No." Gu Yuan still shook his head.

Ling Chao didn't speak, but looked straight at him.

"Really, Brother Chao." Gu Yuan emphasized again.

The sound of sirens, engines, and voices from passers-by kept coming. This is really not a good place to talk. Gu Yuan's current sense of fatigue is real, which also dispelled Ling Chao's desire to ask further questions.

"Okay, then you go back first, I'll take you to the car." Ling Chao finally compromised.

"I take the bus." Gu Yuan pointed to the platform across the road and said.

"Okay." Ling Chao said.

They went to the bus station and waited together. The bus came quickly. When Ling Chao was about to go there with him, Gu Yuan stopped him: "Brother Chao, you should stay here. Also, the monthly exam is only a week away." , this week, let's study hard, and we will talk about other things on New Year's Day."

Gu Yuan was not asking, but making a decision.He didn't give Ling Chao another chance to answer, he turned around and walked to the car after speaking, and got into the car with the flow of people.

The door of the bus closed and left, Ling Chao was still standing there.

The last time Gu Yuan found out about his conversation on QQ, he left with the same expression.A week later, when he came back, he directly gave Ling Chao a critical blow.Although, that crit was wonderful.

This time, it was another week, but this week, they could still see each other every day, but after a week, how would Gu Yuan talk to him?

Du Lin usually came to visit the Sunday evening self-study.Maybe the monthly exam is approaching again, and the end of the semester is only half a month after New Year's Day.Wang Tian, ​​who used to talk to Ling Chao from time to time during his self-study, was also very quiet today, lying on his desk and working hard on the questions.Du Lin sat in front of the podium preparing lessons, and the whole classroom was silent.

Ling Chao made a set of math test papers that Mr. Mao specially arranged for him on Saturday morning, raised his head and moved his neck and arms that were a little stiff due to holding one posture for a long time.When he turned his head, he stared fixedly at Gu Yuan's empty seat.

It was something he was used to that Gu Yuan didn't go to evening self-study, and he also agreed to Gu Yuan's proposal to talk again on New Year's Day.So when he did the question just now, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to it.

Neither of them delayed their studies just because they were together, but they would help each other work harder.Ling Chao is full of confidence in the upcoming monthly exams and finals.At least in No. [-], his opponent was only Gu Yuan.

It's just that when I think about what I will face after the exam, I still feel a little uncertain.

In the past few days, Ling Chao and Gu Yuan really spent their time studying.I didn't even miss the lunch break at noon.It just so happened that Gu Yuan's previous job was handed in, and he didn't plan to pick up a new one before the winter vacation, and he didn't need to go to bed at noon after he was guaranteed sleep at night.

Ling Chao's mother happened to send a set of general examination papers that were said to be compiled by a famous teacher. After copying, he and Gu Yuan took advantage of noon to do it before Thursday.There is not much difference between the difficulty of the questions and the materials specially produced by No. [-] Middle School for the fast class, but the focus will be slightly different.

The results of the two of them are not bad. Ling Chao's grasp of general theory has improved significantly this month. Although Gu Yuan's English is still a bit behind Ling Chao's, compared with the beginning of school, the improvement can be regarded as a leap.

Examinations are nothing to be nervous about for the students of No. [-] Middle School. After all, they have to pass the whole semester.

When the bell rang for the end of the exam on Friday afternoon, the whole teaching building became lively.Except for the fast class of the second year of high school and the third year of high school, other classes have a three-day vacation, and the fast class of the second year of high school and the third year of high school also have a rare two-day vacation.

Although the snow outside has not stopped for a long time, and the temperature is so low that you can stay indoors as much as possible without going out, the holiday is still worthwhile for this group of teenage middle school students.

The students in the sophomore one examination room cleaned up the pencil bag and straw paper on the table, and then changed to their original seats in the original classroom.

"Ling Chao, do you have any plans for New Year's Day?" Wang Tian just returned to his seat, before he was in a hurry to sit down, he asked the people behind him.

"I," Ling Chao, who was packing his books with his head down, heard the question, and put several books upright on the table and said, "I don't have any plans, it's too cold, I'll stay at home."

"Oh, yes, even though the snow scene outside is beautiful, I can't bear the reality that it's really cold." Wang Tian clicked his lips and nodded in agreement.

"Why, you're not going home?" Ling Chao put Qi's book in his bag and asked Wang Tian.

"There's no one here." Wang Tian said helplessly.

"Where's your family?" Ling Chao only knew that Wang Tian didn't live in the urban area, and he didn't go home occasionally on weekends before, but he didn't ask too much.

"My mom went to work with my dad in a neighboring city. I don't live on campus, so I can't go back every week now. My mom is scheduled to go to work on New Year's Day this time, and I'm too lazy to travel so far to their side. I won't go back." Wang Tian didn't care.

"I see." Ling Chao thought for a while and said, "Why don't you stay with me for two days?"

"No," Wang Tian waved his hand and said, "My cousin is in the city. I used to go to his place when I couldn't go back and didn't want to live in a dormitory. It's just two days off after all. I just want to see if you have any What arrangement."

"Is it really unnecessary?" Ling Chao asked again, and Wang Tian nodded.

"I haven't thought about where to go or what to play for the time being. The main reason is that it is too cold. The temperature has dropped a lot these days compared to last week. Otherwise, if I think of it or if you have any good suggestions, let's go again." Contact?" Ling Chao said.

"Success!" Wang Tian stretched out his hand and slapped Ling Chao to conclude the negotiation.

At this time, Du Lin just came over with her vacation homework, Wang Tian didn't say anything, turned around and sat down to wait for Du Lin to make arrangements.

When the representatives of each subject were distributing the test papers, Ling Chao lay on the table and looked at Gu Yuan.

"What's wrong?" Gu Yuan looked at Ling Chao and asked with a smile.

"It's New Year's Day." Ling Chao said.

"Huh?" Gu Yuan didn't realize what Ling Chao's nonsensical words meant at first, but he soon understood.

Yes, it's New Year's Day.

It was agreed before that the two of them would have a talk during the New Year's Day holiday.

It is an in-depth communication.

"Let's go to your house after school." Gu Yuan turned his body sideways, and quickly pinched Ling Chao's finger on his lap.

"Okay." Ling Chao replied with a smile, Gu Yuan's temperature seemed to be wrapped around his pinched fingers, he held his hands and put them in his pockets, sat up and waited for the test papers from his classmates.

Ling Chao didn't think too much about it these past few days, although he was a little flustered when it was mentioned by his classmates.But this week, Gu Yuan didn't show any sign of being affected by this incident at all.He knew that at least Gu Yuan didn't blame him, so what he had to do was to get out completely.

I have known Gu Yuan for four months, and there is still a year and a half before the college entrance examination, and the plan to go abroad has been made since childhood.Ling Chao never cared about this matter before, he regarded it as the only way in his life.

If you want to study business management and finance, the foreign environment is better than domestic ones at least for now.For a long time, in Ling Chao's heart, the career created by his parents' hard work is the responsibility he must undertake, which is beyond doubt.

When I was young, my parents also asked him for his opinion. After his company went public, my father said that if he was not interested, they could hire professional managers when they got old.

But Ling Chao really felt that he liked doing business quite a bit.He doesn't have too many hobbies. For so many years, apart from Sanda, he should only have to study.

He has been exposed to books about management since junior high school.Those boring long speeches are not boring in his eyes, but rather attract his attention.From then on, he knew that in the future, he should take this as his career.

What's more, his parents created such good conditions for him.

It was finally announced that school was over, and the classroom suddenly became lively, and several quick-moving people had already followed Du Lin's footsteps and ran out of the classroom.

"Let's go." Gu Yuan put the packed bag on his shoulder, patted Ling Chao's back lightly, and then walked towards the door first.
