Xia Chang

Sweat was dripping from Liu Xiaobai's forehead, and he used a lot of strength to throw the ball in his hand into the huge ball frame at the corner.

The white and black football fell into a pile of different colors of the same kind, and after a few shakes, it stopped still; Liu Xiaobai was panting, and he turned to look at the dull faces of his teammates washed in the sun, and said, "Let's go first."

"Let's have dinner together, go take a shower, and then eat." The teammate came forward and put a friendly shoulder on Liu Xiaobai's shoulders. They wanted to go out. Even though they got along for a short time, they surrounded Liu Xiaobai with all their kindness.

Liu Xiaobai pulled up the short-sleeved loose skirt, and wiped the cold sweat that was falling down his cheeks; his big and pitch-black pupils were under his eyelids, and he looked towards the sunny place by the door.

The equipment room caretaker is dropping a pinch of tea into a giant glass.

Liu Xiaobai turned his head to the left, he looked at Tian Yuwen, and Tian Yuwen was also looking at him.

"What's the matter?" The boy was tall, probably taller than Zhang Nian, his face was warm and bright, and he showed a row of neat white teeth when he smiled.

The eyes are like two agile fish.

Liu Xiaobai shook his head, and he also smiled at Tian Yuwen, and said, "It's nothing...you go first, the teacher has something to ask me, I'll go to the office first."

The scorching sun at noon will melt people's faces. Liu Xiaobai was wearing a jersey that was soaked in sweat and dried out. He was a little at a loss in the vast and empty sports field. When he looked at the stands again, there was no one there.

Only Yang Kong was in the dormitory.

Zhang Nian seemed to be urged by the gust of wind, he suddenly pushed the door open and came in, then he looked at Liu Xiaobai who was covered in sweat; Liu Xiaobai finally spoke, he held the water glass, put one hand on the table, and said: " Yang Kong took an early lunch break."

Yang Kong was almost in a state of shock, he was lying at the desk writing something, because of Liu Xiaobai's abnormal language, he turned his head and opened his eyes to the maximum.

Zhang Nian was too careless, he was immersed in the depression of the cold war, so he forgot to contact Liu Xiaobai with the figures on the court just now, he wanted to be subdued most, but flinched behind Liu Xiaobai's cold face.

Zhang Nian climbed onto the bed, he was immersed in the shadow of negotiating with Chen Yan all day long, when he heard Liu Xiaobai's words, he was even more annoyed, so he lay down and wrapped himself in a quilt.

The wind from the air conditioner was blowing on his body, and it was cool without any burden. Liu Xiaobai took a dry towel from the closet and went to take a shower.

The third day of Zhang Nian's hunger strike was Thursday, and Liu Xiaobai was still doing his best to be a friendly and enthusiastic person to the whole world.

Teng Xi stood beside Zhang Nian's desk, so she didn't care about the upcoming or already coming scandals, and only worried about Zhang Nian's body and life; the sandwich was added with double steamed eggs and yogurt sauce, and a bottle of fresh milk at room temperature .

"Eat a little, okay? Eat a little." The girl said softly.

It was free time before dinner, so there were only a few people left in the classroom. Liu Xiaobai came from the office, holding a stack of math exercise books that He Letian ordered to distribute.

Liu Ningning is the representative of the mathematics class.

Zhang Nian raised his head and frowned. He probably wanted to refute Teng Xi, but before he spoke, he saw Liu Xiaobai standing at the other end of the podium.

The corridors were full of people coming and going, with distant or nearby hollow noises, echoing in this warm evening with the rhythm of a heartbeat.

Zhang Nian still had such a sad face, he stopped talking, and looked at Liu Xiaobai quietly, they couldn't guess what each other was thinking.

Liu Xiaobai put a stack of books fluttering in his hand on the podium, and he was even careful, tidying up the scattered chalk one by one.

Zhang Nian said to Teng Xi, "I can't eat it, thank you."

"Let me put it here. If there is anything, we can figure it out together. Even if I can't, the students can too... Take care of yourself."

The girl is young and beautiful, and her words are so loud, soft and pleasant; she left without looking at Liu Xiaobai again, and left the classroom through the back door.

I don't know if it was a psychological hint, but Liu Xiaobai suddenly felt that Zhang Nian had lost a lot of weight in the past few days; Zhang Nian was lying on the table, groggy,

"Zhang Nian!" In the next moment, Liu Xiaobai suddenly forgot everything, raised his eyes and shouted, "Zhang Nian, what's wrong with you, don't ruin yourself, if there is something wrong, just solve it?"

"Then you don't agree with me pursuing it?"

Zhang Nian frowned, his cheeks were pale, he didn't open his eyes, his puffy lips moved slightly, and he finished speaking.

Liu Xiaobai put a piece of chalk in his hand into the box, he didn't care to wipe his hands covered with white powder, he ran a few steps, stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Nian's arm, pulled him with all his strength, called him, and said: "You can pursue it as much as you want, can you not be so stubborn! We just chatted a few times that day, did I say something excessive?"

"No one can break the rules." Zhang Nian sat up straight, rubbed his messy hair, looked up at Liu Xiaobai, pulled the sandwich out of the bag, and took a big bite.

Liu Xiaobai replied: "No one can break the rules, we must know how powerful Yang Kong is."

The sporadic students in the classroom who bowed their heads or sat upright looked at this place with surprised and confused expressions.

Wu Xiaochuan said: "What if he is really good, after all, he is a god of learning."

Gritting his teeth, Liu Xiaobai looked at her and said, "I don't even know his grades, we haven't taken the exam together yet."

Zhang Nian took a sip of water and finally swallowed the food in his mouth. He stood up and adjusted the collar of his school uniform. He grabbed Liu Xiaobai's arm and said, "Let's find a way, and I want to tell the whole school."

"My neighbor's distant cousin is a freshman in high school and is at the radio station. Let's find him tomorrow." Liu Xiaobai understood what Zhang Nian meant without any effort, and he answered the call immediately.

As always, Yang Kong didn't communicate with anyone at night, and went to bed early wrapped in a quilt, while Zhang Nian and Liu Xiaobai were writing hard under the lamp, making the final preparations before the exam.

The next day was Friday, cloudy, and the school broadcast at lunch time started as usual, and a boy's magnetic voice came from it, he said: "Hello students, I am Zhang Nian from Class [-], Senior High School, in order not to disappoint everyone. Trust me, I think the accelerated class should strictly abide by the regulations, and I suggest that the enrollment of the tenth class strictly follow the regulations to be fair, just, and open.”

Surprised voices filled the campus, and some people firmly believed that Zhang Nian was asking for trouble, because it was said that Yang Kong was a god of learning.

Chen Yan was at the table in the cafeteria. She stroked her hair and continued to talk to the teacher across the table. She suppressed the embarrassment and unhappiness on her face, and gritted her teeth in a chuckle.

He Letian, who was working overtime alone in the office, slowly closed his notebook. He couldn't stop the sound of the broadcast that crowded into his ear canal with a slight electric current. He covered his face, and finally leaned back on the chair with difficulty.

Zhang Qi and the crew returned to their own city. They experienced a successful and emotional debut, as if they had completed their baptism.

Finally walked from the rehearsal hall to the stage, and truly and completely told thousands of audiences, Director Zhao was still so calm and playful, and held a meet and greet before going on stage on Friday, some fans of the show, some friends and family members of the actors.

Zhang Nian, who came after school, was waiting for the news of Xia Honglin's arrival. He sat in the back row and was unfamiliar with everything, so he looked at Zhang Qi, who was sitting on the stage in casual clothes, with tired and empty eyes.

"We got along very quickly." Zhang Qi said

Director Zhao, who was holding a microphone, immediately echoed her, saying, "Our actors this time are very professional, and the cooperation is very pleasant... Just like our heroine Archie, she is a talented student with rich stage experience and a graduate student who studied acting abroad. ;Our hero, Xiao Shen, is also very powerful, he has been involved in TV dramas and movies, he is very, very good..."

Zhang Qi almost forgot the story with Shen Chenyang that happened in the corridor of the theater in a foreign land.

While the director was speaking, she smiled confidently. She turned her head easily, but unexpectedly learned that Shen Chenyang was also looking at her. In an instant, she felt that her breathing was about to be blocked, so she turned her head immediately.

A girl wearing a short-sleeved denim skirt came up to the empty seat next to Zhang Nian. She was delicate and gentle, sitting upright, and began to smile before her breathing calmed down.

Zhang Nian turned around and waved to Xia Honglin who was late in the distance. He was wearing a school uniform that he didn't have time to change. He was a tall and straight poplar tree in the crowd; The girl nodded and said, "Excuse me, I want to go in in front of you."

"It's okay, please come in," the girl was as thin and beautiful as a lily, with light brown curly hair hanging over her shoulders, she raised her thin eyelids to look at Xia Honglin, smiled at her, and said, "Do you need me to stand up?"

There was a warm atmosphere between her and Xia Honglin, probably because people with similar temperaments met each other, and there would be a unique way of communication.

Or maybe it's not a person with similar temperaments.

"I see, she's dressed so casually, it's better to be pretty."

Zhang Nian was delighted to understand Xia Honglin, because she saw light in her eyes when she looked at the stage, even though she was always critical of Zhang Qi and said such things, Zhang Qi was Xia Honglin's most satisfying work in her life.

The girl turned her head slightly, glanced at Xia Honglin inadvertently, and suddenly asked, "Is it Zhang Qi's mother?"

"Hey, I just came here after get off work. Hello, what's your address?" Xia Honglin's voice was extremely low, and she didn't need to be too reserved in a meeting like this. She turned her head and smiled at the girl.

The girl said: "I am Shen Chenyang's girlfriend, and my name is Chen Ninglu; Auntie is so beautiful, and Archie is very similar to you, so I guess it is her mother."

Zhang Nian needed to rest, and he still looked at the stage with empty eyes; now Xia Honglin and Chen Ninglu were sitting next to each other, and Shen Chenyang was talking on the stage.

"Really? They all said that she looks like Dad. Your boyfriend is so handsome. They are a good match."

Chen Ninglu looked into Xia Honglin's eyes, she was feeling a kind of extreme tenderness, but suddenly she seemed to have received some kind of strong signal, which made her a little timid.

Shen Chenyang's deep and magnetic voice reverberated throughout the entire space. He was slowly saying, "I must feel that I am him, and his family is my family. His hatred and bravery, and... love, should all be be mine."
