Absinthe

Perhaps because the midterm exam was approaching, there were a lot more students who came to the school for evening self-study on Sunday than before, and the classrooms were almost full.

When Zhong Xiu and Hao Ai walked into the classroom, Zhang Zhiyuan had just rang the class bell for evening self-study, and Zhang Zhiyuan was already sitting on the podium. On the podium was his dark blue extra-large plastic cup filled with tea water.

Seeing the snacks in the hands of the two, Zhang Zhiyuan said slowly: "Reviewing is hard, so we need to supplement our nutrition." After the two of them sat down on their seats, he added, "But we should eat less snacks. "

Lu Fayan on the side covered his mouth to keep himself from laughing out loud. He was still laughing, but the boys in the back row had already started to secretly share snacks under the table. It was impossible to store up food among the boys.

After the first evening self-study, Lao Zhang walked out of the classroom with his hands behind his back. Those who hadn’t finished their homework could finally blatantly circulate Zhong Xiu’s completed test papers to each other. Came back unexpectedly, he just forgot to take the extra large cup on the lectern.

He walked towards the people at the back of the classroom: "What are you doing?"

A group of people gathered in the back row hurriedly dispersed.

Lu Fa tried to cover it up: "Teacher, we are discussing a problem."

"Hey, don't just copy your homework according to Zhong Xiu's papers in the future. You can also get full marks if they get full marks? Use your brain and correct a few mistakes." Zhang Zhiyuan left this sentence helplessly, holding Cup went out the back door.

"Did you hear that? Learn from it in the future."

Hao Ai has never made such a low-level mistake. Every time he copies Zhong Xiu’s paper, he deliberately writes a few multiple-choice questions that are different from Zhong Xiu’s answer. He wrote it himself, circled the questions that he didn't understand and explained them in detail.

"Ai Ai, can I ask you something?" Lu Fayan asked him holding a paper.

"No." Hao Ai refused, he knew that every time Lu Fayan asked such a question, there would be no good.

"When I go back to the dormitory at night, can you ask Zhong Xiu, your family, to give me some questions?"

"Hey, the sun is coming out from the west." Hao Ai mocked.

Lu Fayan is even more ignorant than Hao Ai. He only thinks about two things every day: What will we eat today?What are you going to eat tomorrow?

"If I fail this midterm exam again, I won't have to. I will definitely be scolded when I go home, and my dad will cut off my pocket money." Lu Fayan began to sell miserably: "I'm so pitiful."

"No," Hao Ai muttered in a low voice: "Zhong Xiu has to study at night, and it's his time that's wasted. Are you responsible for not getting the first place in the grade?"

Zhong Xiu had heard the conversation between the two a long time ago, he turned his head and smiled at Hao Ai first, "Are you worried about me?" Then he said to Lu Fayan: "Yes, if there is anything I don't understand, I will go to your dormitory at night Let me tell you."

"It's great to learn God!" Lu Fayan spent 5 minutes expressing his sincere gratitude and admiration to Zhong Xiu, and then looked at Hao Ai proudly: "Look at him!"

"Cut!" Hao Ai glanced at Zhong Xiu's back indignantly, and began to bury his head in his homework again.

It was the last group's turn to be on duty after evening self-study and school, and a few people in the back row cleaned the classroom while playing around.Lu Fayan finished Zhong Xiu's work very diligently, and Zhong Xiu helped Hao Ai mop the floor together. It took nearly half an hour to finally clean the classroom, and there was still a bucket of garbage left.

Hao Ai took the initiative: "Zhong Xiu and I are going to take out the trash, you go first."

So the others walked away shoving and shoving in embarrassment.

Zhong Xiu easily picked up the trash can with one hand. Hao Ai wanted to help him carry the other side, but Zhong Xiu refused.

"Don't touch it, dirty."

Hao Ai felt very sorry, and followed him closely.

There is a large garbage truck outside the back door of the school playground, and the garbage produced every day will be dumped there.

After the two of them took out the trash, Hao Ai followed Zhong Xiu to put the trash can in the class, and then went to the sink to wash his hands. The lights in the classroom were all turned off, and it was pitch black, only the dim yellow lights were still on in the corridor.

Hao Ai followed even more closely.

Zhong Xiu still used the bottle of grapefruit-flavored hand sanitizer to wash his hands. Hao Ai especially liked the smell. His hands were obviously clean, but he had to wash them accordingly, squeezing a lot of hand sanitizer onto his hands.

"I think I'm just a grapefruit." Hao Ai said after washing his hands.

"Grapefruit is delicious," Zhong Xiu grabbed Hao Ai's hand, wiped off the water on his hand with a tissue, and said, "You are delicious too."

"..."

So Hao Ai turned into a red heart pomelo.

Back in the dormitory, Zhong Xiu went to their dormitory to give a lecture to Lu Fayan. Several other roommates also moved up stools to listen. of light.

After explaining the questions to them, Zhong Xiu packed up his things and prepared to go back, and several people in the dormitory also started to go about their business.

Lu Fayan asked Hao Ai to borrow clothes: "Ai Ai, lend me one of your T-shirts tomorrow."

Recently, the weather has suddenly warmed up, and it has risen by more than ten degrees at once. Spring has just begun, and it seems that summer is about to enter.

Many boarding students had to have their parents send them thinner clothes.

Since the school does not force students to wear school uniforms, everyone's clothes are all different colors.

Hao Ai's liking for T-shirts has almost reached a fanatical level, and his wardrobe is full of T-shirts of various colors and patterns.

He wears T-shirts in spring, summer, autumn and winter. When the winter is very cold, he wears a down jacket directly over the T-shirt, as if he is not afraid of the cold.

"Okay, you can find it yourself." Hao Ai readily agreed.

Lu Fayan picked out a white T-shirt with anime prints on it. This is a summer limited edition of a certain brand. When it was first released, there was a wave of panic buying. Hao Ai happened to be working part-time in that brand store at the time. , bought one at the internal staff price, and envied Lu Fayan.

After Lu Fayan picked out the clothes, he happily went to take a shower.

But Zhong Xiu didn't leave for a long time.

"Why are you staring at my closet?" Hao Ai saw that Zhong Xiu's eyes never left his closet.

"fine."

Hao Ai coveted with a smile: "Do you want to wear my T-shirt too?"

"...I don't want to." Zhong Xiu said.

"What do you wear, my T-shirt looks great!"

"..."

"Which one are you wearing?" Hao Ai said, taking out all the T-shirts he thought looked good from the cabinet and putting them on the bed.

"Anything is fine." Zhong Xiu said reservedly.

Hao Ai picked through the pile of T-shirts for a long time, took out two, and said with gestures: "You wear this one, and I wear this one."

This is his second favorite T-shirt. The two are the same style, with monster prints on them. Hao Ai thought it looked good, so he bought two, one black and one white.

"Couple outfit?" Zhong Xiu raised his eyebrows.

Hao Ai handed him the black one: "Yes, do you want to wear it?"

"Put it on." Zhong Xiu took it over without hesitation.

"Let's wear it together tomorrow." Hao Ai's eyes wandered, and he deliberately didn't look at Zhong Xiu, but looked elsewhere.

Bright little thought, so cute as hell.

The next day, the two walked out of the dormitory wearing the same T-shirt.

Lu Fayan went out of the dormitory with Hao Ai. When he saw Zhong Xiu coming out from the next door, he looked at his clothes, and then turned his head to look at Hao Ai's clothes. An indescribable expression: "You two, it's really... that's too much."

Boys are actually not that sensitive. Usually, it is common for boys to change clothes or wear the same style. Of course, they will not say anything. Lu Fayan is an exception, because he knows that there is indeed something between the two. .But girls are different. Many girls I met along the way looked at them secretly.

Zhong Xiu and Hao Ai were very calm, but Lu Fayan was in torment. From the dormitory to the cafeteria to the classroom, he kept nagging all the way:

"What did I do wrong?"

"Why do I have to bear so much at the age of 17?"

"I don't want to be with you anymore."

"Brother, we didn't beg you to come with us." Hao Ai didn't dare to smile too obviously.

Lu Fayan said, "Do you know that you have four big characters written on your face?"

"what?"

"Looking at sex and forgetting friends!" Lu Fayan was very angry.

When he arrived in class, Ning Yue was distributing the chemistry papers for the last quiz. He walked to Zhong Xiu’s seat, put the full-score test papers on his desk, and asked in a low voice, “Hao Ai bought the T-shirt you’re wearing. Bar?"

"Why can't I buy it?" Zhong Xiu asked.

Ning Yue shook his head and said with a smile, "It doesn't feel like your style."

"It's his clothes." Zhong Xiu said.

"Hey, that's great." Ning Yue sighed and went to hand out the papers again.

The day before the midterm exam, Zhang Zhiyuan called Hao Ai to the office, encouraged him, and then asked him with a smile, "How is your preparation for this exam?"

"It's not a problem to improve to another hundred." Hao Ai seemed confident.

"That's good, the teacher trusts you." Zhang Zhiyuan felt relieved.

Hao Ai has made rapid progress in each of these major exams. His grade ranking has jumped from more than 800 to more than 200. He has squeezed into the top ten in the class and has become a dark horse that amazes everyone. There is a lot of room for improvement.

In the afternoon self-study class, Zhong Xiu took Hao Ai to the chemistry laboratory.He could see that Hao Ai was very restless in the classroom and couldn't concentrate on reviewing. Only here could he be a little calmer.

Zhong Xiu sat on the laboratory table and sorted out the test questions that he had just passed. He did not have the habit of relaxing before the test like others, but he did the same as usual, reviewing as he wanted. good.

He was writing something down in his notebook when Hao Ai suddenly hugged his waist.

"What's the matter?" Zhong Xiu thought he was too nervous before the exam, so he patted his head soothingly.

Hao Ai buried his face in Zhong Xiu's neck, and said sullenly: "Suck on the god of learning, and bless me to do well in the exam tomorrow."

When Hao Ai had had enough, Zhong Xiu held his face and kissed him on the forehead.

"What are you doing?" Hao Ai was a little confused by the sudden kiss.

Zhong Xiu said seriously: "A kiss, and the knowledge in my brain will enter your brain."

"That won't work, I'd better give it back to you, what should you do if you have given me all your knowledge?" Hao Ai was about to kiss Zhong Xiu on the forehead as he said that.

"It's knowledge sharing, idiot." Zhong Xiu stopped his movement, turned Hao Ai's face lightly, and kissed his lips tenderly.
