Juliet Tower

baffling……

Boys of this age taboo the word cute, and Qiao Yumian is no exception.Although he grew up late, but now he is wearing sneakers, and there is a 1.8-meter scale on the top of his head, so cute.

Qiao Yumian handed him the exercise book: "Wait for me, I'll go say hello to the teacher first, I'll be back right away, don't run around." After he finished speaking, he confirmed that the other party was standing firmly on one foot before letting go, turned around and ran into the gymnasium door.

An Jiayu watched him run away with his long straight legs, and reappeared within 3 minutes, his expression not moving at all during the run.

"Do you have gym class?"

"Ah."

Actually using physical education to solve problems... Are you a top student?

Qiao Yumian helped him jump to the dormitory area. The school is built next to a mountain, quiet and quiet, with a particularly wide view.

He lowered his head and glanced at the trousers he rolled up, revealing that his two-finger-wide ankle was already red and swollen.Fortunately, the gymnasium is not far from the dormitory area. When you look up, you can already see a five-story building with a red roof and a white body. The outer walls are repainted every summer to keep them clean and new.

Although he is already a sophomore in high school, he has hardly been close to this area.

There are beautiful flower borders in front of the dormitory building, which are different from those residential areas or the red and green green belts beside the road. The colors in this small patch of flower borders are few but harmonious, with different shades of green, with creeping growth. Yes, there are small shrubs, and some are as tall as a person. There are clusters of lavender-headed flower buds in the shrubs, with wavy edges, which are vaguely opened and layered inside.

"Ouch, An Jiayu, what's the matter?" The dormitory teacher was pinching the shower faucet to cool down the vegetation at noon, and a rainbow sprayed out in front of him.

Qiao Yumian's head immediately popped up the phrase "There are Jiayu in the south, and Shanshan is full of steam" from Xiaoya in the Book of Songs.

I don't know if his parents mean it.

"Accidentally twisted it, it's fine. Is Teacher Liu watering the flowers again? How many crops is this?"

Qiao Yumian was taken aback for a moment. Does this person even have to call the auntie a teacher respectfully? He is more tactful than he looks.

"It's the third crop. This crop has failed, and we can do it again." Teacher Liu looked a little proud, "I prepared new soil and fertilizer with your biology teacher a few days ago, and I will replace them all during the winter dormancy period." Go in, and next year, more flowers will come out."

"What's the name of this breed?"

"Dragonflies. The species cultivated in Japan is not easy to feed." Teacher Liu turned off the tap and walked into them, squatting down to take a look, "Hiss, it's swollen, is there any medicine?"

"Upstairs." An Jiayu put his feet on the ground calmly, Qiao Yumian dragged his elbow, and his palms trembled.He was enduring the pain, and there was a trace of innocuous stiffness in his smile.

"It's here, you can go back." An Jiayu returned the exercise book that he had taken all the way, "I'll delay you from studying the questions."

Qiao Yumian took it, and held the scroll in her palm: "You really don't need to go to the infirmary?"

"No. No bone damage. I have painkillers and ice packs in my dormitory." He pointed to a row of windows above his head.

Qiao Yumian was startled, and added another sentence: "Which floor do you live on?"

"Fourth floor. There are potted flowers on the window sill." An Jiayu pointed to the flower bed again, not seeing anything outside, "That's it, Dragonfly. It was cut from this plant, but it didn't grow well. I will send it to Teacher Liu in a few days Help me."

Qiao Yumian sighed, he had no intention of greeting the other party: "I'll take you up. The fourth floor, you look like this, are you going to climb up." No... The tone seemed a bit mean, and he added dryly, "Senior."

The other party couldn't help laughing again, but at least he didn't laugh out loud: "That's fine, thank you."

After dawdling, Qiao Yumian helped him push the door into the dormitory together.

At first glance, it is spacious and bright.

Second glance, disorganized.

It's not dirty, but there are a lot of bits and pieces, and the space is full of unkempt life.

On the small rug is a coffee table and a bean bag, and a tablet is supported on the coffee table.There are piles of books and music pages on the desk, and there is an ebony music stand not far away, with a burgundy and ultramarine twill tie hanging on the top, and a pure white painted violin case lying on a chair beside it, with a silver label on one corner shiny.The two dirty laundry baskets in the corner are full of piles, one contains unseen dirty socks, and the other contains changed school uniforms and sportswear.

Apart from what An Jiayu was wearing, there were also two other sets of identical white shirts and suit pants.

The school uniforms for their private experiment cost thousands of sets in summer, and more expensive in winter.The fabrics pay attention to fine workmanship, and the price is higher than that of the niche trendy brands outside.

Students who apply for this school not only have to pass the test, but most of them come from rich or noble families, elites.A few thousand dollars to buy school uniforms is only a drizzle compared to a hundred thousand dollars a semester for tuition and miscellaneous fees. Adding in board and lodging, it makes ordinary people daunted.

Taking this dormitory as an example, there are single rooms, air-conditioned refrigerators, solid wood tables and chairs, and extra-wide single beds. The two cabinets facing each other are as wide as the arm span, which is larger than the wardrobe at Qiao Yumian's home.

Qiao Yumian only had one set of school uniform and one set of sportswear. In one year, the length of the trousers that were originally left over now just covered the ankle joints, and if he grew a bit taller, he would turn into cropped trousers.In fact, Li Huijun also saw it, but when she received the email to reorder the school uniform before the start of school, she didn't express her opinion, and Qiao Yumian couldn't say anything.

It stands to reason that in mid-September, the heat is not as hot as midsummer, but An Jiayu didn't rush to find an ice pack as soon as she sat down, she first took out the remote control of the air conditioner from the pile of scores on the desk with ease, made a beep, and after a few seconds of blanking, it was refreshingly cool The wind blows down from above.

"Help me get an ice pack, the freezer." An Jiayu grinned and took off her shoes, emptying her injured foot with no place to put it.

Qiao Yumian swept around, dragged the lazy sofa bag out from one side, and put it in front of him: "Put it here." Then he went straight to the refrigerator and opened the freezer.

All of a sudden, all kinds of ice cream cones fell out of it, including milk, chocolate, and hazelnuts.At a glance, he saw the ice packs that fell under his feet. The light blue screw caps were painted with corner creatures that have become popular recently, and they were frozen hard.

He quickly piled the cones on the ground back into the freezer, and piled them head in and out into a slightly more stable pyramid, and slammed the door of the refrigerator.

"Choose a flavor you like." An Jiayu said, "By the way, help me get one too. I want Bai Qiao."

Qiao Yumian had no choice but to open the refrigerator again, lightly took out Baiqiaowei from the pyramid, and handed it to him together with the ice pack.

"You eat too, anyway, it's lunch break."

"No need." Qiao Yumian just wants to go back to the classroom and finish the papers for the first class in the afternoon. During the lunch break, the whole classroom is empty and quiet. If you finish it early, you can write tonight's homework in advance, "Thank you, senior."

"You don't need to call me a senior. I'm not a senior anymore." An Jiayu moved the ice pack on her ankle, "I'm going to repeat my sophomore year in high school this year."

……

"Ah... um..." The unexpected answer made Qiao Yumian feel uncomfortable, but he accidentally broke the other's little secret one by one.

Sixteen or seventeen years old, full of exuberant self-awareness and sensitive self-esteem.

But An Jiayu just looked at him calmly, without any embarrassment or embarrassment in his expression, as if the word "rereading" was harmless, and by the way, he bit the tip of the pure white cream from the luxury cone, and the milk melted into his shallow lip lines .

The boy's body temperature was high, and a big mouthful of butter seemed to be melted in an instant. With a gulp, An Jiayu explained slowly: "Last year, I was busy running around for competitions and performances, and then fell ill. I didn't have much class. The seniors all rushed After finishing the progress, I started to review, but I couldn’t understand at all, so I had to start all over again.”

Hearing the indifferent tone of the person involved, Qiao Yumian also heaved a sigh of relief.

"Which dormitory do you live in?" An Jiayu asked.

"I don't live in the dormitory, I go to school." Perhaps because he knew the other party's not-so-glamorous side, Qiao Yumian didn't hide it from himself.

The dormitory environment is good and the facilities are good. There is an open kitchen in the public area on the first floor of each building. The cafeteria is not open in the middle of the night and there is no need to make instant noodles. There are gas stoves and ovens downstairs. The dormitory teacher can also make some hot ones for you fast food.This condition is second to none in China, and the accommodation fee is naturally high.

"...School? No wonder I haven't seen you. Do you live nearby?" An Jiayu licked the chocolate crumbs stuck to the corners of his lips.

How is it possible... There are only a few villas nearby.

Qiao Yumian shook her head and didn't answer in detail: "You rest, I'll go to the cafeteria..." Before I finished speaking, I felt that something was wrong. An Jiayu's feet might not be able to move.He looked back at the other party, "You, what do you eat?"

The man was not polite to him either: "Let's have a pan-fried bun, steamed pork ribs with rice flour, stir-fried shrimp balls with broccoli, and a crab roe tofu."

"A whole copy?"

"That's right." An Jiayu blinked and looked at him strangely.

Qiao Yu was tongue-tied, this man looked thin, but he was quite edible.

I rushed to the cafeteria, swiped my card and ran to the dormitory, I felt a little distressed, and dozens of dollars were gone.His lunch has never been so extravagant. Ten yuan a piece of white rice plus half meat and half vegetarian set meal is enough. Occasionally, he drinks a bottle of banana milk between classes, and he will feel sleepy in the afternoon after eating too much.

Taking advantage of the time when he was going out, An Jiayu had already cleaned up the small table when he came back, laid out the food he had brought back, and suddenly raised his head: "Why did you just give me a pair of chopsticks?"

The author says:

Xiao Qiao only appears to be poor in this school...she is an ordinary person outside.
