The rainy sky was covered with heavy haze, Liu Xiaobai was by the window, and accidentally saw He Letian walking around the flower bed downstairs; his back was not straight enough, and he was wearing a short sleeve with a dark gray lapel, and he was moving fast without an umbrella.

Before the math class, the classroom was very noisy. The students going to and from the bathroom rushed into the classroom one second before the bell rang. Zhang Nian looked up with a pen in his hand, and saw Liu Xiaobai coming down from the podium. A thick layer of chalky white flakes.

Liu Xiaobai laughed with a harmless face, and wanted to press Zhang Nian's cheek with his slender fingers. Seeing that Zhang Nian was not joking or avoiding it, he flattened the corners of his mouth in disappointment, and said with a smile: "I was wrong, I wrong."

He Letian entered the door holding his textbook and teacup. He was only a few seconds late, panting heavily, with his short neck hidden in his collar, and his T-shirt was soaked by the rain, with water marks of various shapes printed on it.

He Letian's class is not boring, but also very ordinary. He is kind, and at those moments he would smile lovingly, but comparing the past to the present, Zhang Nian realized that he has changed a lot.

Even if Yang Kong left, everything that started with Zhang Nian did not end with Zhang Nian's persistence. The huge contradictions were closely linked; the lives of innocent people also touched the sincerity of many people.

Liu Xiaobai was named by He Letian.

"Your practice last week was above the passing mark. Believe it or not, there are a lot of people in the ordinary class who are better than you?" He Letian glanced at every student through the old glasses and stopped on Liu Xiaobai halfway. He continued, "Before dinner Make up one, and continue if you don’t pass the test.”

"I have to prepare for the exam today, can I make it up before Friday?"

He Letian didn't say a word, he looked into Liu Xiaobai's dark eyes, and suddenly, quickly glanced at Zhang Nian who was in the back row.

"Math is also tested, right? Alright, let's do last week's consolidation exercises today..."

Liu Xiaobai raised his voice clearly, frowned anxiously, and suggested: "I'll make up two more!"

He Letian gritted his teeth, and closed the textbooks with several pages open in his hands. He clicked the mouse on the desk to find the courseware in the USB flash drive. His glasses slid down the bridge of his nose, and finally stopped on the tip of his nose.

Zhang Nian tried to look into He Letian's eyes, but he found that He Letian's eyes were slippery, and he didn't look here after all.

He Letian said: "Bring it to the office before dinner, I'll take a look."

Liu Xiaobai pursed his mouth tightly. He was anxious and dazed as if he had been accidentally injured. He suddenly bent down and took out a stack of papers from under the desk.

"I practiced here on the weekend, and there are five of them. The standard answers are all above excellent."

Zhang Nian had no illusions, he clearly saw Liu Xiaobai's hand shaking while holding a stack of papers, He Letian was never a fussy person, and Liu Xiaobai didn't need supervision at all.

He is relaxed but attentive to everything. During the math practice last week, he had a headache from the sequelae of a cold, and he didn't complete all the questions, so he didn't achieve excellence.

The eyes of the students sitting quietly focused on Liu Xiaobai's hands, and they exclaimed in surprise, exaggeration, or in response, as if they were witnessing some great achievements; After finishing, he smiled bitterly at He Letian.

Zhang Nian understands that He Letian is unusual now, but he can't judge everything accurately. Liu Xiaobai's thin back in school uniform is in front of his eyes, like a defenseless and useless wall.

Zhang Nian turned up the pen in his hand, dropped it deliberately on the floor in silence, and made a harsh impact; it was also like a command or a bell ringing, which brought everyone back to their senses.

He Letian looked at Zhang Nian subconsciously, Zhang Nian was staring at his eyes, did not escape, and He Letian, who looked blank, smiled at him.

Zhang Nian understood, He Letian hated him, but he was also afraid of him; Zhang Chengwei and Xia Honglin couldn't be messed with, but Liu Xiaobai was easy to mess with.

Zhang Nian's eyes have smooth, stretched and magnificent eye ends, which are cold and empty, which almost made He Letian feel frightened like being hanged; He Letian coughed twice.

Say, "I want to see your practice before dinner, now, please sit down."

But Liu Xiaobai didn't need to be comforted at all. From his point of view, this was a small thing that he didn't need to care about. He couldn't figure out the reason behind the punishment, and after a very short period of loneliness, he wasted lunch and lunch break to finish a practice sheet Volume, Zhang Nian sent a WeChat message from the cafeteria and asked, "What do you eat?"

"The fried rice with shredded beef with pickled peppers, plus pickled mustard and iced rice balls, is not shredded pork with pickled peppers, but shredded beef with pickled peppers!"

It was too familiar, so Zhang Nian listened attentively to the voice message, and knew what Liu Xiaobai was feeling. Standing in the middle of the line in front of the cafeteria window, he typed hurriedly, saying, "I can't hear you, don't make a voice."

Liu Xiaobai replied to him: "Understood!"

Going forward outside the cafeteria, bypassing the laboratory building full of creepers, Zhang Nian, who was carrying a packing box, saw He Letian holding a cup from outside to the building from a distance. The rain had stopped, but the sky was still dark.

He sneezed suddenly, the girl behind him was stretching out her index finger, lightly poking his back.

"Don't you eat in the cafeteria?" Teng Xi was still the same, very straightforward and a little arrogant; she raised the bulging canvas bag in her hand, opened it in front of Zhang Nian, and said, "Come here, get a cake, I'll self-made."

"The food I bring to others is not for myself to eat."

Teng Xi seemed to be presenting a treasure. Zhang Nian stuffed more than half of the cake and piled it all on top of the packing box in the bag. She suddenly rolled her eyes and smiled, saying, "I hope you like it."

"Thank you."

The girl's eyelashes and thin eyelids seemed to fly away; she looked at Zhang Nian, and Zhang Nian looked at her; the occasional raindrops fell into Zhang Nian's neck.

It's getting cold.

Teng Xi said: "I was at the door last time... I didn't expect that you didn't blame me. I was too impulsive. It's good to be a classmate and occasionally a friend."

Zhang Nian was exhaling slowly, and then looked further behind Teng Xi, he had nothing to say, it was difficult for him to give the false ease to Teng Xi that day.

"But I still want to say it, I didn't say it," Teng Xi raised her eyes, suddenly she was a little brave and pious, she was smiling, and suddenly, her eyelids and cheeks were flushed, and on the occasional road to and from people, she said Nothing serious.

A twisted sentence in the throat: "I have liked you for a long time."

Another drop of rain fell on the tip of Zhang Nian's nose. He didn't speak, didn't get angry and didn't smile; he was so surprised that he stood stiffly in place, the warm wind caressed his hair and cheeks, and Teng Xi's voice came again .

"What's wrong with liking."

Zhang Nian turned around a few seconds later, and raised his hand to stroke his hair fluttered by the wind. He was nervous, his heart was beating rapidly, and he didn't understand all the definitions in the world for a moment.

He doesn't know what it is to like.

Liu Xiaobai got fried rice with shredded beef with pickled peppers as he wished. He held out a spoon to invite Zhang Nian to taste it, but Liu Ningning stuffed him with a mouthful of cake; Zhang Nian slept very early in the afternoon, and he was lying in this small and dark space. Falling in love and liking, not familiar with the mind and body of the opposite sex.

He closed his eyes, and it was nothing new because he had been confessed before; but this time it was different, he used Teng Xi's emotions to threaten her to say and do something willingly, thus forcing He Letian to show his fangs.

Before this morning, Zhang Nian didn't think that He Letian was a bad person; Liu Xiaobai didn't finish writing the question, and he took a short time to finish his meal, so he probably didn't realize that He Letian was making trouble for no reason.

"Liu Xiaobai, what do you think of Teacher He?" Zhang Nian hid on the bed and sent him a message.

It took a long time to come back there, probably after finishing the paper, Liu Xiaobai said: "He is the most brutal big devil in the world, I was beaten to death by him, I wrote the paper to death, don't look for me."
