Maybe it's because it feels absurd, maybe it's because it didn't react, maybe it's because the more you pay attention, the less you can express it.

After that day, no one in the class discussed Shang Houde's words.

Ke Shangyang keenly felt that something had changed.

During the class, the students obviously worked harder.The questioning atmosphere is stronger and the learning atmosphere is stronger.When class is over, more people choose to continue reading than go out to chat with girls or play military chess.

After school, more people choose to stay for self-study instead of going home and sneaking away.

Many people began to inquire more or less about the enrollment rate and learning materials of the Provincial No. [-] Higher Normal No. [-] Middle School and other things that they had never dared to ask before.

Shang Houde's words are like a diamond thrown under the thick ice for three or nine days.After the bang.The ice was as smooth as a mirror, untouched, and the crowd was laughing and wasting their efforts.

Little did they know, under the ice, cracks had already spread like spider webs.

At first, Shang Yang thought of finding an opportunity for Shang Houde to talk about this matter to persuade him.If this matter fails in the end, he will only be ridiculed by others for a lifetime.

But after chewing the words of dissuasion several times in his mouth, he found that he had nothing to persuade.

Shang Houde has been a teacher for so many years.He understood the gap between schools better than himself.He also knows what he's doing better than himself.

He knows everything.

He still did it—just like when he was the principal of Shangxi High School from Provincial No. [-] High School under the eyes of everyone in astonishment.

He has his own beliefs and is willing to bear their burdens.

After thinking about it again, he suddenly remembered a sentence that his grandfather had inadvertently commented on Shang Houde at a family dinner between his grandparents and grandson.

"Your father, he is too kind, so he is too tired to live."

Autumn in Jiangcheng came very early this year.In mid-September, when autumn tigers were still raging in previous years, the sky had already started to rain, and there were pools of water lying on the ground. Occasionally, a gust of cold wind would carry the moist water vapor up to the sky.

"It's a rare leaf to know autumn." In class, the Chinese teacher picked up a French sycamore leaf that floated into the classroom, put it in the book, closed the door himself, and threw a bombshell to the students in the class: "Autumn is here It's time to tighten the strings, everyone in the second grade of high school has a monthly exam next month!"

The class was suddenly devastated.

"No ah ah ah ah!"

If the holidays are the dream lovers that the students in the class next door will never be able to reach.

Then the exam must be the cruel and ruthless dean who never misses the appointment.

It's still the bald plus version.

"No, no, no!" The Chinese teacher knocked the podium until the chalk dust sprayed out with a pointer: "I have taken such a long vacation, so I will take care of you. Don't think that you are only sophomores, and you are still far away from the college entrance examination. Let me tell you that the time is going fast. When you really go to the college entrance examination and think about it, it will be like a dream..."

All the students looked at the Chinese teacher in horror.

"This group of children..." The Chinese teacher, who is nearly fifty years old, looked amused, and stopped talking: "Okay, let's start class now, and turn to page 24 of yesterday's workbook."

There was a sudden sound of flipping through books.

"The fake characters in this article..." The Chinese teacher pushed his glasses, and glanced under the podium. "The new student in the last row, please answer."

New classmate Shang Yang: ...

Shang Yang doesn't like Chinese.Chinese class is the time for passing notes, reading novels, bragging and flirting.

At this moment, he was secretly stuffing the earphone cable into the sweater, wearing one earphone, and pressing the paper book of "Zhu Xian" under the exercise book, reading it with great interest, and didn't hear what was said on the podium at all.

The Chinese teacher repeated: "Transfer student?"

Li Qing didn't move his brows, and quickly stabbed him with his elbow.

Shang Yang's quality was tempered by fighting wits and courage in the classroom for many years.After being reminded, he immediately entered the state of combat readiness. He quickly raised his head and threw off the earphones, pulled the exercise book to cover the novel, stood up quickly, and said in a loud and clear voice, "Hello, teacher."

The Chinese teacher was deceived by his handsome appearance for a second, and coughed twice: "Answer the question just now..."

Li Qing pushed the exercise book to his side, and the voice rang out at the same time: "The second question of the 24 classical Chinese reading questions, the rhyme word for 'avoid', the answer is 'pi'."

Shang Yang said confidently and loudly: "I choose B for this question!"

……

After sitting down in a panic, Shang Yang patted his chest guiltily and hooked Li Qing's shoulder: "Ban Hua, thank you."

Li Qing shook off his arm: "No need."

He got a cold face again, but Shang Yang didn't care.Having been at the same table with Li Qing for more than half a month, Shang Yang has also figured out this guy's nature.

For example, this guy is full of obsessive-compulsive disorder: the papers are placed in categories, the books are arranged according to different heights, and the nibs are uniformly placed perpendicular to the direction of the textbooks.

The height of each line on the back of the row of textbooks can match.

Another example, he looks cold-eyed and cheeky all day long, but in fact he is very shy and warm-hearted.In just half a month, he has played seven screens for him.

A perfect Chinese tablemate.

"I heard from Old Zhang that the monthly exam is coming." Shang Yang put his elbow on Li Qing's shoulder again: "Banhua, let's make a bet on the result?"

Li Qing remained silent.

"You see, it's not a problem for us to be so stiff." Shang Yang clapped his hands straightly, "Well, if you do better than me in the exam, you promise to be my buddy. If I do better in the exam, I'll be your buddy .Fair and reasonable, no bully, let alone Ban Hua, how about it?"

In response, Li Qing drew a long ink mark on the paper: ...

"Ban Hua, if you don't speak, I'll take it as your agreement." Shang Yang winked at Li Qing, and took out his "Zhu Xian" again, but accidentally knocked Li Qing's eraser off.

Recalling the rubber incident when they were at the same table on the first day, both of them paused.

Li Qing lowered his eyebrows slightly.

thump—

Li Qing, who bent over to pick up the eraser, covered his head, and looked at Shang Yang, who bent over to pick up the eraser.Shang Yang grabbed the eraser, raised his head and smiled at Li Qing: "Ban Hua, do you think we have a tacit understanding?"

Li Qing's ears were a little hot: "Give it to me."

"Yo, Banhua is shy." Shang Yang looked at Li Qing playfully.Seeing him even more annoyed, Shang Yang wanted to say a few more words, but his eyes turned away, and he caught a glimpse of Li Qing's neckline.

Li Qing was wearing an old long white T, the neckline was washed too much because of wearing it for too long, when he bent down along the collarbone, he could almost see the large piece of white snow and the...

Shang Yang's Adam's apple rolled up and down dryly, and he moved his eyes away as if it was so hot.

"I'm not shy." Li Qing didn't notice this detail, grabbed the eraser to cover up, and quickly sat up straight.

Shang Yang snorted.

After picking up the eraser, the small corner became quiet again.Shang Yang was flipping through the novel, but there was always a piece of white in front of him, and he couldn't read it any more, but he didn't dare to look at Li Qing either.

For some reason, the quiet atmosphere that I was accustomed to was a bit awkward.

After a long time, he seemed to find some reason, coughed twice, and asked unnaturally: "Then what, I heard sister Xiaoyu said that your grades are pretty good?"

He wanted to ask if he should reconsider the bet.

Li Qing calmed down and said in a detached voice: "It's not good enough."

Shang Yang was taken aback.

Li Qing seemed to have thought of something, pursed his lips, and repeated himself as if thinking of himself: "It's not good enough."

This is actually a very calm and normal tone, but Shang Yang can hear the weight contained in it, and the sense of persistence that he still clenched his teeth in the exhaustion of pursuing the all-or-nothing goal.

This tone made Shang Yang uncomfortable for no reason.

It seemed that Li Qing was carrying heavy revenge alone, walking alone on his own path, no matter how heavy the pressure was, his back would not bend.

On the road of step by step, there is no room for a second person.
