Difficult to heal

The flag-raising ceremony of Yining No. [-] Middle School was held on time. The school leaders gave a speech on it, and the students in the audience were busy doing their own things.

Among them, those who memorized vocabulary accounted for the majority, but there were also some who secretly played with their mobile phones.

Most of the topics of this kind of speech are lengthy and boring, and students can't listen to them at all. That is why some students will pay attention when awarding outstanding civilized classes.

But today is a little different. I don't know who whispered something. After the leader finished speaking, how many people will go up to read the self-criticism.

Immediately someone asked, "Which class is it?"

"It seems to be two classes." The man said, "I don't remember if it is class four or five, or class four or six."

"Is it those few?" One person pouted and pointed not far away.

At the stairs next to the flag-raising platform, there were six or seven boys in school uniforms standing scattered, as if embarrassed to accept the attention of the whole school, some of them turned their backs to this side.

"It should be them."

As the class awards came to an end, the leader of the security department, who specializes in student discipline, took the stage and said with a microphone: "Last Tuesday, several students in our school violated school regulations and entered the school privately after being late. After education and reflection, they had a good attitude. For the sake of his first offense, he will not be recorded, and now he is reviewing it in front of the teachers and students of the whole school, hoping that everyone will supervise each other and take precautions."

After finishing speaking, several people standing by the stairs lined up and went to the stage against the eyes of everyone.

The students in the audience were silent for a moment, and then someone took the lead in applauding. The applause ranged from small to large, and became more and more enthusiastic, with a few cheers and whistles vaguely mixed in.

There are very few students in the No. [-] Middle School who are criticized in public like this. It has not been seen in the past three years at least. The students are very fresh.

The [-]th class shouted the most, the class leader He Xijie was the first to bear the brunt, and shouted excitedly: "Brother Chen! Changyu! Call for you two!"

Zhang Chichi in the front also joined in the fun, dancing and dancing: "Brother Lu! Look here! Ahhh, so handsome, Brother Lu!! Mianmian is so cute, hahaha."

There was uncontrollable laughter from the side.

Murong Tianqing hid his face in shame, pulled the overly excited Zhang Chichi, and reminded in a low voice: "Pay attention to your image, a lot of people are watching you, please restrain yourself, your Jiang Jiang is also standing behind!"

Hearing Xiu Qinjiang, Zhang Chichi put down his hands immediately, and stood upright, "I forgot, please help me to see, Jiang Jiang didn't pay attention to this side, did he?"

Murong Tianqing turned his head and saw that Xiu Qinjiang was sitting at the back, and he was engrossed in staring at the stage at this moment, not paying any attention to how noisy the students around him were.

"Don't worry, he's watching a show too." Murong Tianqing said.

Zhang Chichi shyly pulled the hair around his ears: "That's good."

Seven people stood in a row on the stage, Tang Xingchen was in the middle, a few steps in front of him was the microphone.

Lu Shu lowered his voice: "The Chosen One, Mr. Tang, go, your fans are watching."

"Go away, uncle." Tang Xingchen scolded back, "If you are jealous of my popularity, just tell me."

Lu Shu sneered.

"It's fine for He Xijie to join in the fun, Zhang Chichi is a little girl yelling nonsense." Feng Changyu muttered.

"Cut." Pan Mian said disdainfully, "The little girl didn't call you."

Feng Changyu smiled: "Son, there are too many people today, so let me let you go."

"Okay, stop chattering." The person in Class [-] next to him said, "Which one of you will go first?"

"Men left and women right, whoever is farthest to the right will go first." Feng Changyu said.

The five groups on the far right quit: "Why do you decide, why don't you start from your side?"

"A bunch of men are twitchy, are you gentlemen or women?" Tang Xingchen sneered.

After the provocation, he took out the prepared review from his trouser pocket, tugged at the cuff, took two steps forward, tapped the microphone with his fingertips to test the sound, then bent slightly, smiled kindly, and said, "Good morning, teachers and students. .”

Lu Shu: "..."

Pan Mian: "..."

Feng Changyu: "..."

Three people in class five: "..."

What's the matter, are you ready to start your speech?

"I'm Tang Xingchen from Class [-] and [-] of Senior High School. It's a pity to let you know me in this way, but no matter what, I'm still standing here to say hello to you."

While speaking, he glanced across the dark crowd below the stage, raised his eyebrows and smiled arrogantly.

There was a whistle from the crowd.

It was followed by loud and boisterous applause.

"Brother Chen! You're so handsome!"

"Brother Chen is a cow!"

"Brother Chen, you are my male god!"

The usual boring atmosphere was instantly mobilized by the arrogant opening remarks at this moment. Not only the first and second graders, but even the senior seniors who were tense as the college entrance examination approached, cheered nonsense.

"Tang Xingchen, if you try to force yourself, you'll have to get out."

Lu Shu glanced at the school leaders whose faces were blackened into the soles of their shoes, and lazily reminded them.

The teachers in front of each class began to maintain discipline, Lao Hong raised his hand and pressed down: "Students, be quiet, He Xijie! You are the class monitor and you still take the lead in messing around!"

He Xijie shrugged innocently, showing a sly smile: "Teacher, I think you are very happy."

"Tsk!" Lao Hong patted him, "Shut up, how can you say this in person."

The students in the fourth class suppressed their smiles, and each of them buried their heads and twitched their shoulders, as if they had a convulsion.

Before the leader actually came up to arrest people, Tang Xingchen finally calmed down and read his self-criticism seriously: "I was wrong, I deeply realized my mistakes, I shouldn't have violated the school regulations..."

After Tang Xingchen finished reading, the road diagonally behind walked up.

He and Tang Xingchen were originally in the middle, and on the platform, it was like watching monkeys in a zoo. They were uncomfortable, and they finished reading early and let things go.

When Tang Xingchen left, he even cast a wink at the bottom, causing another burst of laughter and commotion. Lu Shu resisted the urge to kick him and adjusted the height of the microphone.

He opened the mouth and said, "Hello, teachers and classmates, I am Lu Shu from Class [-] and [-] of Senior High..."

Lu Shu was not as coquettish as Tang Xingchen, and he was muttering self-criticism in a regular manner, his tone was flat, his expression returned to his usual alienation, he looked a little fierce, and he was not easy to get close to.

A high school girl in the audience whispered, "Is this also from the second and fourth class of high school? So handsome, are there so many handsome guys in the second section of high school?"

"So much?" Another girl next to her asked, "Other than this and that one just now, who else?"

"Don't you remember?" the girl said, "At the beginning of school, the senior who spoke on behalf of the second grade, what seems to be the name... Jiang, the name is quite nice."

"Xu Qinjiang?" the boy wearing glasses interrupted.

"Oh yes yes yes, it's him, you know him? I really like his face!"

The black line from the girl next to him: "You just said you were handsome on stage."

"It doesn't matter, the style is different, I like them all. And that senior Xiu Qinjiang's facial features are really amazing, prettier than girls, otherwise I wouldn't remember it till now."

The girl was infatuated for a while, then turned her head and asked, "How do you know who I'm talking about? Do you also think he's pretty?"

The boy pushed down his glasses: "He is a competition student, and we often have classes together."

The girl's eyes lit up and she grabbed him: "Really? Then can you help me with the contact information? I'll treat you to something."

The boy shook his head: "I tried, it doesn't work."

"Ah? If you don't give it or what?"

"He doesn't have a cell phone."

"Cut, who are you lying to?" The girl turned back dully, "If you don't help, you won't help, what excuses are you looking for?"

On the stage, I read it to the end. Although the content was boring, I couldn’t bear the good-looking face and the good-sounding voice. Everyone saved face, and they were more serious than listening to the leader’s speech.

After reading the last sentence, everyone gave a loud applause.

But what was surprising was that Lu Shu did not leave after the applause, and remained standing in front of the microphone.

He lowered his eyes, folded the review in his hand and put it in his school uniform pocket, then raised his eyes casually, his eyes passed through the crowd, and precisely fell on a certain person.

Ever since he came to the stage, Xiu Qinjiang had been staring at him, and Lu Shu had already felt the stare in his eyes.

Among all the gazes, Xiu Qinjiang looked the most persistent.

Persistence contains full-eyed seriousness.

Xiu Qinjiang listened carefully to every word Lu Shu said, almost reaching a pious level.

Lu Shu looked at Xiu Qinjiang across the stage, across the crowd.

He slowly raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

Zhang Chichi couldn't believe it: "...Brother Lu, were you laughing at us just now?"

Murong Tianqing also felt that he was dazzled, "No way, why would he smile at us?"

As if to prove that they were not delusional, Lu Shu smiled again.

Zhang Chichi said in horror: "I rely on him to really laugh, it's so scary, why is he laughing?"

"What are you doing?" Murong Tianqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's not that scary, isn't it nice to smile?"

"You don't understand." Zhang Chichi rubbed his arms, "Brother Lu doesn't know how to smile at people."

Lu Shu didn't know what kind of shadow his casual smile left on Zhang Chichi, he just saw Xiu Qinjiang smiling at him, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

He held the microphone and said the last word before stepping off the stage.

"In the future, I don't need to bring lei tea to Xiu Qinjiang, but Xiu Qinjiang will bring it to me."

After the words fell, he turned and left the flag raising platform.

Everyone was at a loss, not understanding what Lu Shu's words meant.

Only Xiu Qinjiang understood.

He turned on his phone and typed a word in the dialog with Lu Shu.

-it is good.

Pan Mian pushed Feng Changyu: "Don't stand still, it's your turn."

Feng Changyu oh oh twice, looked at the direction Lu Shu left, put away the strangeness in his heart, and honestly recalled his self-criticism.

Lu Shu walked down the stairs, instead of returning to the class team, he sent a message to Tang Xingchen.

-where?

Tang Xingchen returned quickly.

- Commissary.

Just as Lu Shu was about to turn off his phone, he paused, and then clicked on the message. When he saw the good word, a smile appeared in his eyes, and then he sent a message to Xiu Qinjiang.

-I'm going to the commissary, come find me when it's over.

After handing out, Lu Shu took advantage of everyone's inattention, turned to the narrow road behind the flag raising platform, and left the playground.

"Brother Lu, you are no less messy than me." Tang Xingchen grabbed a bag of potato chips and threw it over, "The microphone is so loud that I can hear every word clearly."

Lu Shu caught it with one hand, walked over and sat down, without answering, opened the packaging bag and took a slice out to eat.

He frowned just after chewing it twice, and took a closer look, it tasted like tomato.

He raised his foot and kicked: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you."

Tang Xingchen avoided it with a smile: "I didn't expect you to eat it without looking at it, hey, don't throw it away, I like to eat this."

Lu Shu unpacked the original one again, and after eating two slices, he said, "Find someone for me."

"Who?" Tang Xingchen raised his eyebrows.

"Deng Yuan." Lu Shu said.

Tang Xingchen teased: "Why, didn't you play enough last time?"

"No." Lu Shu's expression became a little gloomy, "On Saturday, he made a move against Xiu Qinjiang."

Tang Xingchen's expression changed: "What's going on?"

Lu Shu briefly mentioned a few words, omitting the matter of Xiu Qinjiang's visit to the doctor, and only mentioned the visit.

Tang Xingchen didn't ask any more questions, but after thinking about it for a while, he said, "It's not a big deal to find someone, but what are you going to do after you find them?"

"Threats don't work, let's meet first."

Tang Xingchen said calmly: "Brother Lu, murder is against the law."

Lu Shu said expressionlessly, "Get lost."

Tang Xingchen put away the joke, nodded and said, "Okay, it's just a matter of one sentence, and I'll say hello to the other side when the time comes."

"Thank you." Lu Shu punched him.

"I'm out of sight." Tang Xingchen smiled, and said carelessly, "But to be honest, Lu Shu, why do I care about you so much? I saw you for the first time in class, so I thought, this person is quite interesting. , can be brothers."

"Don't be sensational." Lu Shu said with a straight face, "I really beat you."

Tang Xingchen raised his foot and kicked him: "Sir, I'm [-]% serious, okay? I know so many people who can make me feel that I can be brothers. There are no more than two, and you count as one. "

Lu Shu kicked his leg away in disgust: "Okay, Mrs. Tang."

Before Tang Xingchen exploded, he added: "I also treat you as a brother."

"You're smart." Tang Xingchen smiled extraordinarily. He stared at Lu Shu, and said after a while, "Lu Shu, do you have something to hide from me?"

Lu Shu was taken aback: "What?"

Tang Xingchen threw a candy into his mouth: "I knew that Xiu Qinjiang was not your cousin."

"Oh, and then." Lu Shu remained calm.

"You two..." Tang Xingchen hesitated to speak, "What's the relationship?"

This question was too sharp, Lu Shu fell silent.

what relationship......

brother?friend?loved ones?

Or... Victim vs. Perpetrator?

I don't know where to start, it's more troublesome and less misunderstanding.

Finally, after thinking about it, he simply said: "He is my mother's godson, and he is staying at my house temporarily."

"Really?" Tang Xingchen paused for a few seconds, the corner of his mouth curled up, "You two have a very good relationship."

"En." Lu Shu subconsciously pinched his palm.

Tang Xingchen patted him on the arm: "Keep it up, don't quarrel."

Lu Shu: "?"

Tang Xingchen stopped talking, but just glanced at Lu Shu meaningfully.

Then he raised his chin and said, "Your brother is here."
