The mountains and rivers are gentle today

Lin Xiqing sat down opposite her father, wiped off the ashes that didn't exist, and tucked back the hair that had been blown to the front by the wind.

Her hands were not placed on the table, but were folded on her knees, and her right hand gently circled back to hold down her trouser pocket—as if these small movements under the table could give her the patience and courage to continue the chat.

"Xi Qing, how are your grades recently?" Father Lin's dry face squeezed out a bunch of creases, and a false smile broke out in the middle of the creases, "Of course you don't have to worry about your grades, they must be first-class. "

Lin's father asked and answered, and called the waiter to order a milkshake for Lin Xi: "I remember that you liked to drink this when you were a child, blueberry and banana flavored milkshake, right? Dad deliberately found it for you. Let's see if it is The taste we drank in City B."

In the back street of the Dance Academy in City B, there is a small shop that is said to have a Taiwanese flavor. Young dancers who are not worried about losing weight will occasionally line up in front of the shop just for a cup of pearl milk tea.

The place where Lin Xiqing danced as a child is not far from here, and she also craves a sip of milk tea when she comes home from school, so she looks forward to the day when her father picks her up every week and rents an apartment—forcing them to skip breakfast in order to maintain their weight The teacher who eats too much doesn't care about her, she can get a small note from her dad's wallet in exchange for a good taste that she misses day and night.

But unfortunately, her father forbade her to drink pearl milk tea, saying that she was afraid that she would be choked by the pearls when she walked and jumped, so he would add an extra three yuan every time to give her a milkshake.

The milkshake is sweeter than milk tea and has a fruity aroma.When Lin Xiqing was a child, she did prefer the taste of milkshakes.

He was really nice to me.

There was a beautiful straw inserted into the milkshake in the glass. When the waiter brought this beautifully decorated milkshake, Lin Xiqing even thought for a moment——or write it off.

The bright youth that should have grown up in City B, the smashed house in City L, the political trial that couldn't pass...

——Let’s write it all off, and treat it as a mistake made by an unreliable man in his 30s.It's something in a certain time frame, but it's nothing in the long river of time.

Lin Xiqing wanted to wipe off the nail polish on her fingertips, and when she went out, she threw the carefully "modified" bag into the sewer.

"I have a junior high school classmate who is a college classmate with your Teacher Jiang." Father Lin said softly, "The last time we had dinner together, I said that you are going to the province to participate in a chemistry competition."

Lin Xiqing nodded, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable—an irrelevant person knew her life so well.

"The chemistry competition is great! Do you know how much prize money there is?"

It's still about money.

Lin Xiqing turned his head and took a sip of the milkshake.

Milkshakes served in beautiful goblets, after all, are not as tasty as those served in disposable plastic cups at roadside fly restaurants.Nice but not interesting.

"I don't know." Lin Xiqing shook his head.

"We already had a lot back then. If I remember correctly, it was already a thousand dollars more than ten years ago." Lin's father said with a smile, "Your father and I were good at chemistry back then, and they were also at the level of winning prizes in the province. !"

Quite proud.Lin Xiqing sneered in his heart.

"You must be good at chemistry." Lin's father leaned over and lowered his voice, "Dad was not good at other sciences, so he didn't get into college. But my chemistry level is definitely not worse than those college students. After you finish the exam, Dad will have a good time with you again. Exchange and exchange skills..."

It turns out that it can still be called craftsmanship.

Lin Xiqing didn't dare to think about it any further. She didn't know what her future would be if she stayed in L city where the other party could always find her if she wanted to.

L City is too small, human relationship is like a net, as long as you have the patience to inquire, there is always a way to inquire about her developments from the side, and then plan the so-called future for her.

She dared not think.

She is in her third year of high school, and she has only one year left to escape, and she can't be caught by anything.

Just disappear, even for a year.

"Okay." Lin Xiqing stood up and walked to her father, "Let me give you a hug. I haven't hugged you in a long time. By the way, let me touch... the chemical aura on your body."

Father Lin beamed with joy, his daughter's initiative was obviously beyond his expectation, he stood up defenselessly, and hugged Lin Xiqing tightly.

Lin Xiqing's hand rested on the bag behind her trousers, and the small bag of powder slipped down without anyone noticing.

Lin Xiqing thought she would be panicked, but when she tricked out her father's address, and even sent him to the bus stop with a smile, she didn't even worry about it when she accidentally saw Cheng Yanfan at home while renting a house Jump so fast.

At 31:9 p.m., there are still 9 minutes left for get out of class to end in No. [-] Middle School, and [-] minutes left for the fourth class in the afternoon. There are few people walking around on campus.

The uncle in the canteen had already fallen asleep, and even the sound of leaves blowing could be clearly heard in the silent campus.

There is a wall-mounted public telephone on the outer wall of the canteen. Seventh Middle School said that mobile phones are not allowed, but in fact, almost all students have a mobile phone, so this phone has not been seen or used since Lin Xiqing entered school.

I hope the face-saving project of No. [-] Middle School will give some strength.

"1" "1" "0".

Lin Xiqing pressed the buttons one by one.

pass.

She took a deep breath and lowered her voice, completely different from her usual tone.

"I want to report, I just saw that someone seems to have drugs with him..."

Possessing drugs illegally, entering the palace for the second time...

He couldn't tell.

I have at least a year of peace.

Lin Xiqing suddenly wondered if this phone call might not be strong enough.

Do you want to call Wu Zhe again?

She took out her mobile phone and hesitated before turning on the screen.

I can't fool him.

The screen was lit up by her restless fingers, and the center of the screen displayed the missed call from Cheng Yanfan more than an hour ago, which she simply hung up on.

She suddenly felt a wave of fear.

What have I done.

Leaning against the mottled wall in front of the canteen, full of shoe prints and ball prints, she slipped and squatted to the ground.

"Finally you called me back. ——Where did you go to class?" Cheng Yanfan's voice came from the loudspeaker, so far away yet so near.

"I'm so scared."

"What's wrong? Where are you?" Cheng Yanfan's voice suddenly became tense.

"I may have done a very bad thing."

"It's okay, how bad can you be?" Her voice calmed down, as calm as comforting a child, "I'll come right here, you stay where you are. ——Tell me, where are you?"

"...school, I'm outside the commissary."

"Okay, give me 2 minutes."

Lin Xiqing told Cheng Yanfan everything that happened in the past hour like pouring beans.

The grove of No. [-] Middle School is far less deep than that of Meigao L City Branch School, but it is enough to hide more dark secrets.

Cheng Yanfan smiled: "You are really quiet at ordinary times, and you will get a lot of votes if you do it."

"What should I do? Am I finished if I was found out?" Confiding made Lin Xiqing feel better. Although she was still afraid, she could at least guess the ending of the game in a joking tone.

"What to do, I have done everything." Cheng Yanfan turned sideways, and gently hugged Lin Xiqing, "At least I assure you, this secret will not be leaked from me."

"This is enough."

Cheng Yanfan originally wanted to pull away, but Lin Xiqing hugged him even tighter.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Yanfan didn't push it away, and let Lin Xiqing hug him, with a smile on his face, "Are you still afraid now?"

Lin Xiqing's face was buried in Cheng Yanfan's neck, and suddenly, she had the illusion that she wanted to kiss him.

Drawbridge effect?

People always fall in love with the first person who appears when they are afraid.

Lin Xiqing pulled himself out of Cheng Yanfan's arms, and smiled at Cheng Yanfan as if nothing happened: "It's all right now."

Cheng Yanfan glanced at her: "Your expression, why do you want to kiss me?"

Lin Xiqing's heart beat wildly again.

——What happened to this unlucky heart, how could it beat so clearly in front of this person.

"What if I really want to kiss?" Lin Xiqing pretended to be calm.

"Then you've crossed the line." Cheng Yanfan also replied calmly.
