"One two one, one two one..."

Facing the scorching sun that has not faded in September, the slogan outside the window is like a heat wave, and the "squeak" sound of the fan inside the window forms a unique rhythm with the slogan.

The wind blew the books through the window, and the curtains fluctuated together; in the huge classroom, there was only one person sitting alone by the window. As if the loud slogans outside the window had nothing to do with him.

He didn't stop writing until a gust of wind blew an exercise book on the back desk to the ground and made an unidentifiable slight sound. He looked back at the desk obliquely behind him, got up suddenly and walked over, bent down and picked up the desk on the ground. The homework book, after hesitating for a moment, turned to look at the name on the cover——

苏臻

The young man pursed his lips, and silently said these two words in his heart.

"what are you doing?"

Suddenly a clear male voice came from the door, the boy looked for the sound, and a person was standing at the door looking at this side.

There was no expression on this man's face, but it didn't affect his face at all - his fair complexion, delicate facial features, and short hair made him look like a figure walking out of a mural.

Nan Yi knew him, and he was the owner of this book.

"It's nothing." The boy was very calm, he put the notebook back and said, "Your notebook was blown off by the wind."

The person at the door didn't say anything, just returned to his seat and sat down, and Nan Yi also went back to continue doing those math problems, as if nothing had happened.

It turned out that this was the second week of Nan's transfer to No. [-] Middle School. His parents tried their best and finally transferred him to the best middle school in the city in the second year of high school.He himself didn't feel anything about it. Whether it was the original classmates or the environment, he didn't have any nostalgia. Anyway, his parents just wanted to improve his grades, but their only wish was a bit difficult to realize.

The whistle for disbanding downstairs sounded twice, and there were noisy voices in the corridor, and people with flushed faces entered the classroom one after another, moaning and complaining about the hot weather.

The stool next to Nan Mo was pulled out, and he sat down alone, unscrewed the water bottle, gulped down the water, and put it down when he was almost dry; he leaned back, grabbed his clothes and wiped them again. He wiped his face and fanned himself with two books.

Sitting next to him, Nan Yi only felt that his heat was also transmitted to her body, and unconsciously took a sip of water.

"Hey, you won't run and practice anymore?" asked the deskmate.

Nan Mo shook his head and replied, "Should be able to run."

It was a complete accident that he didn't run exercises.He got up late that day, and went to do morning exercises before he had time to eat breakfast. As a result, he fainted due to hypoglycemia. In fact, he didn't faint for long, at most 30 seconds, but this frightened his head teacher. He thought he had something wrong. illness, just pardon him from running and practicing.

In fact, Namjou himself really wants to go out for activities.

As the class bell rang, the classroom gradually quieted down; the teacher had just entered the classroom when a mobile phone rang suddenly, and then a boy began to pretend to cough, trying to cover up the sound, even though he didn't know whose mobile phone it was.

The phone ringing stopped abruptly, but Su Zhen stood up suddenly, and walked out regardless of the teacher's obstruction. The teacher was also used to his behavior, so he didn't bother, took out the book and started to lecture.

Nan Mo opened the book again and again and looked out of the window. After a while, he saw the figure. He put his hand on the glass, watched Su Zhen gradually disappear from his sight, then withdrew his hand and began to listen to the class.

At noon, the weather began to become gloomy, and a dark cloud in the sky was so heavy that it seemed that it would fall at any time.When Nan Yi and a few people in the dormitory returned to the dormitory after eating, there were raindrops in the sky, and it started to crackle after a while.

Nan Yi went to bed early, set up the table and continued to work on the problems. The roommate slept and played, but it didn't affect him at all.

The dormitory is a six-person room, but only five people live in it. According to roommate Xi Yu, who is also Nan Yi's deskmate, that buddy's mental quality is too poor, and he can't bear to watch people quarrel every day, so he left school.The other two are class monitor Liu Qinghua and young master Wu Tong, both of whom are easy to get along with; as for the last one, Nan Mo has only seen him in the classroom so far, and that is Su Zhen.

According to Nan Yu's observation, Su Zhen seldom goes back to the dormitory, especially at night, and he rarely attends evening self-study, and often misses classes. In short, he is a maverick.As for why Nan Mo pays so much attention to him, it's probably because of his looks. Su Zhen is really good-looking, but it's not that Nan Mo has never seen this kind of person, but he just can't take his eyes off Su Zhen.

After the lunch break whistle sounded, Nan Yi immediately packed up his things and lay down to sleep. He felt more sleepy and always felt drowsy in class. He thought it would improve if he slept more.

The dormitory building also gradually quieted down, except for the patter of rain outside the window.

After sleeping for about 10 minutes or longer, Nan Yi seemed to hear a knock on the door in a daze. He turned over and thought it was the sound of rain hitting the window, so he fell into a deep sleep again.

The alarm rang at 01:30 on time. Nan Yi turned off the alarm and immediately got up and got out of bed to clean the bedroom; Liu Qinghua also got out of bed afterward, leaving only Xi Yu and Wu Tong stuck on the bed.

Nan Mo tied up the garbage bag and was about to throw it out. He walked to the door, pulled the latch and pushed the door forward. He felt that he had bumped into something. He poked his head out through the crack of the door and suddenly froze.

There was a man sitting outside the door, drenched in rain, with water dripping from his hair; he hugged his knees, his phone was placed by his feet, and the screen was on, displaying the chat interface.

"Su Zhen?" Nan Qi couldn't help calling his name.

The person on the ground moved his body, looked up at the person behind the door, his face was expressionless, his face seemed paler, and his eyes seemed deeper.

Su Zhen put the phone in his pocket and stood up, Nan Mo immediately opened the door and let him in sideways.

As soon as Liu Qinghua came out of the toilet, she saw Su Zhen who was drenched all over, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Nan Yi thought that Su Zhen would not answer, but he shook his head, said "it's okay", then took off his clothes, wiped the water on his body indiscriminately, and threw it on the ground.

There is no trace of fat on his body, and his body is thin but not weak. His skin is as fair as his face, which makes the red mark on his body more obvious.

"Hey, where are you going again?" Wu Tong said with a sneer, "Why did I remember Dajia coming to the dormitory today?"

"A Tong." Liu Qinghua called him, as if to remind him.

But Su Zhen didn't care about Wu Tong's words. He went to the cabinet and found a piece of clothing, then climbed to the upper bunk and lay down.Wu Tong snorted coldly, slammed the door and left, Xi Yu was taken aback by seeing it, thinking how could he argue about anything.

Standing on Wu Tong's bed, Liu Qinghua looked at Su Zhen, whispered a few words in his ear, patted him on the shoulder, and dragged Xi Yu to class.

When Nan Mo came back after taking out the trash, Su Zhen was the only one left in the dormitory.He put his schoolbag on his back, walked to Su Zhen's bed, and said in a very soft voice, "Sorry, I heard a knock on the door, but I didn't know you were outside..."

"roll."

Nan Mo tightened his grip on the strap of the schoolbag and then loosened it. He glanced at the figure with his back turned to him, and walked out without saying a word.

The light rain that had stopped, started to fall again in the evening self-study, but it still couldn't stop everyone from going outside for a walk. As soon as the bell rang for the end of get out of class, the students went out together to breathe fresh air.

The physics class representative wrote down the homework for the next self-study session on the blackboard before leaving. Nan Yi looked up and suddenly remembered that his physics exercise book had been left in the dormitory. jumped.

"What are you doing? You want to go out?" Xi Yu asked vaguely with a straw in his mouth.

"I didn't take the physics exercise book," Nan Yu said, and walked out sideways, "I'll go to the dormitory."

Liu Qinghua who was sitting at the back table immediately handed over an umbrella upon hearing this, and said, "Be careful, there is water on the road."

Nan Yi thanked him, took the umbrella and ran out.Although this is a big class break, you still have to hurry up.

Running all the way back to the dormitory, it was unavoidable to get splashed with muddy water on his trousers, but Nan Yi didn't care, he pushed open the dormitory door, climbed onto the bed and touched the exercise book under the pillow; because he was so anxious, he completely forgot that there was no one in the dormitory. , so when he saw his personal climate lying opposite his bed, he was really shocked.

The man also heard the sound of him coming in, turned over, and said in a tone that seemed to be an order: "Pour me a glass of water, it's hot."

Nan Yi saw his long eyelashes, casting a small shadow under his eyes.

He poured Su Zhen a glass of water with his own cup, and raised his hand to pass it to him; Su Zhen sat up propped up, took the water and took a sip, holding the water cup in one hand and his own in the other The calf was pinched once and for all.

"Are you okay?" Namjoon asked looking at his hands.

Su Zhen didn't answer him immediately, but returned the cup to him, and said something irrelevant: "What's your name?"

"Southern."

After that, Su Zhen didn't speak any more, and sat on the bed with her knees folded, playing with her mobile phone.

Nan Mo saw that it was getting late, and just as he was about to go back, he heard a familiar cell phone ringtone, which he heard in class before.

"Hi," Su Zhen answered the phone and said, "What's the matter?"

"Oh...don't go, I'm not feeling well...don't come to me...don't make me angry, as I said, I'm very uncomfortable."

After speaking, Su Zhen immediately hung up the phone.

He put down his phone, saw Nan Mo looking up at him, raised his eyebrows at him, and said, "Why, don't you go to class?"

"Are you feeling well?" Namjoon asked.

Seeing him ask this sentence with no expression, Su Zhen suddenly felt a little irritable. He frowned and replied, "What's the matter with you?"

Nan Mo didn't speak anymore, walked to the cabinet, opened his own cabinet, put the cup back, and said without looking back, "I have medicine in the cabinet, you can get it yourself."

After all, he picked up the umbrella and ran to the teaching building.

Su Zhen was a little dazed. He glanced at the neat cabinet, lay down, and said to himself, "What a weirdo."

After the evening self-study, the rain stopped completely, but there was still a lot of water on the road, and it was very troublesome to walk.

"I said that the drainage system of our school is too bad. This is the rhythm of flooding the dormitory building." Xi Yu complained over and over while avoiding the puddle.

Liu Qinghua smiled and didn't answer, Wu Tong also looked down at the phone, let alone Nan Mo, who usually wouldn't answer the conversation.

The sudden silence made Xi Yu decide to be a little embarrassed, and he said to the group of roommates dissatisfied: "You guys should answer me anyway."

"Well, it's really not good." She still had a good heart, and then replied him.

Only then was Xi Yu satisfied, and continued walking towards the dormitory, talking and laughing.

To be honest, Nan Mo didn’t know these people well. After all, he had only known each other for a week, and he happened to be not the kind of person who was good at communicating, so he chose to remain silent most of the time; however, his intuition told him that these people were not bad, especially Sher Long, is a very gentle person.

As soon as the door of the dormitory was opened, there was a faint smell of tobacco rushing into the nostrils. Looking inside, one person was smoking on the balcony, leaning against the window; the window beside him was wide open, and the night wind was blowing in, making it a bit cold.

Seeing that her roommate came back, Su Zhen extinguished the cigarette and closed the window again. When she was about to go to bed, Wu Tong suddenly grabbed him by the collar, pressed him against the wall, and said viciously: "I said But, don't smoke in the dormitory, do you want us to be punished with you!"

"Oh," Su Zhen sneered, "I smoke my cigarette, none of your business."

As soon as the words finished, Wu Tong pushed him violently, and Su Zhen's head hit the wall heavily. The person concerned didn't say anything, but Xi Yu, who was watching from the side, let out a cry of surprise.

"It really has nothing to do with me, you'd better get lung cancer, get out!"

"Thank you for your blessings."

Su Zhen pushed Wu Tong away, climbed onto the bed and lay down.

Xi Yu and Liu Qinghua, who have long been accustomed to their quarrels, pretended that nothing happened, put down their schoolbags and went to wash up; but Nan Yi, who had just arrived, didn't understand the situation. Seeing Su Zhen, she still walked up to Wu Tong and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing," Wu Tong said perfunctorily, and he suddenly raised his voice again, as if deliberately speaking to someone, and continued: "You just came here, and many things are unfamiliar, but remember to stay away from Su Zhen, so as not to be tainted Some unknown virus."

Hearing these words, Su Zhen didn't say anything, and Nan Mo didn't say anything either. He faintly felt that there was something wrong with the two of them, so he didn't ask any more questions, brushed his teeth and went to bed.

In the middle of the night, Nan Mo heard the sound of thumping again, and he sat up in a jerk, but when he listened carefully, he found that it was not the sound of knocking on the door, but the sound of the bed board.He turned his head to look at Su Zhen who was facing him, and found that he was wrapped in a quilt and almost curled up into a ball. After a while, he turned over and the bed board made a sound.

Suddenly, Su Zhen's bed board was kicked violently, and then Wu Tong's furious voice came: "If you don't sleep, get out of here!"

Su Zhen's writhing body stopped, and he sat up, but when he was about to get out of bed, Nan Yu held him back.

"Are you still unwell?"

Because the lights were turned off, Nan Mo couldn't see Su Zhen's expression, but he could feel that his face must be very bad at the moment.

After a moment of silence, Su Zhen pushed Nan Mou away, and said coldly, "Didn't you hear Master Wu's advice? Stay away from me."

After that, he got out of bed, put on some clothes and went out, leaving Nanxi sitting on the bed in a daze.

"A Tong, you are going too far." In the darkness, Liu Qinghua suddenly spoke.

No one answered, only the sound of someone sitting up, and then Liu Qinghua said: "You know he's not feeling well, so you still want to argue with him."

"Then he asked for it himself!" Wu Tong retorted.He was a little dissatisfied with Liu Qinghua speaking to that person, as if he was wrong.

"You two..." Liu Qinghua didn't say any more, put on her shoes and left the dormitory.

Seeing this, Nan Yu also followed, leaving behind Wu Tong who was sullen, and Xi Yu who was fast asleep.

When Nan Mo arrived on the first floor, Liu Qinghua was talking to the housekeeper, Su Zhen stood beside Liu Qinghua without saying a word; when Nan Mo approached, the two finished talking.

At this time, the dormitory manager turned his head and saw Nan Yu again, waved his hand at him irritably, and said, "Why is there another one, which class? Hurry up and go back to sleep!"

"Uncle, I'm sorry, he's also my classmate, let's go back right away." Liu Qinghua laughed with him, and immediately pulled the two of them upstairs.

On the third floor, Liu Qinghua stopped suddenly at the stairs. He turned to face Su Zhen, and asked with concern, "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Su Zhen shook her head.

Liu Qinghua said again: "You don't need to get angry with Ah Tong, he just said that nothing will really happen, you are not children anymore, why are you still like this."

Su Zhen raised her lowered head, looked at him for a moment, then suddenly stretched out her hand, hugged the person in front of her, and buried her head in his neck.

"What are you doing? Do you want me to carry you back?" Liu Qinghua smiled, reached out to pat him on the shoulder, and joked, "Tong will be angry."

Nan Mo on the side watched the scene quietly without saying anything. He heard Su Zhen speak, and called "Qing Hua", after which he couldn't hear clearly.

Listening to Su Zhen whispering in his ear, Liu Qinghua patted his back lightly, like a big brother next door comforting his injured little sister.

Nan Yu suddenly felt that something was blocked in his heart, and he felt a little stuffy. He rubbed his chest, lowered his head, and walked towards the dormitory.

From the beginning to the end, he didn't say a word, and he didn't know why he came out, obviously, he was not familiar with any of these two people, it was really... so stupid.

In fact, people often do some things unconsciously, which is why people often change their life trajectory unconsciously.
