Rebirth and daily cultivation

After the military training ended in the afternoon, class teacher Shan Qingrong informed everyone that they would stay in class for self-study in the evening and school would be over at 9:30.

After the students learned about it, they secretly cursed the school for being stupid. They had been training all day and were exhausted. They wanted to go home and lie down to rest, but in the end they had to study in the evening.

No books have been distributed, so where can I study late at night?

Shan Qingrong saw the students' expressions of resistance and said with a smile:

"I can't help it. This is the school's rule. Let's do this. I'll show everyone a movie tonight."

The classroom in No. 4 Middle School is a multimedia classroom with computers and projectors, which are often used in class and are very convenient.

The classmates felt a little better when they heard the movie was being played. Watching movies in school was quite enjoyable.

Only Xue Yuantong had a sullen face. She didn't know in advance that she would have to study at night. If she went to study until 9:30 in the evening, even though it was summer, it would be completely dark. By then, she would have to walk three kilometers alone on the river dam. It’s scary to think about.

Although she thought she was extremely courageous, if she walked at night...if she encountered bad people along the way, Xue Yuantong became more and more frightened as she thought about it, her face turned pale, and various terrifying scenes kept emerging.

She didn't bring her mobile phone today because of military training. Her mother went to the village to help her grandparents collect peanuts. She has been away from home for the past few days and no one will come to pick her up.

It's over, it's over, Xue Yuantong is very sad now.

She wanted to stand up several times and tell Shan Qingrong that she wanted to go home early, but it was too embarrassing. Shan Qingrong asked her why, what should she say?

That she's afraid of walking at night?

Ridiculous, ridiculous, so ridiculous. Would I, Xue Yuantong, be afraid of a mere night road?

The lights in the classroom were turned off, and the movie Shan Qingrong showed to everyone was "Spirited Away" with the projector shining on the curtain.

Xue Yuantong's face kept changing in the shadows, and his mood was wavering.

Jiang Ning had seen this movie in his previous life. At the end of the first day of military training, Shan Qingrong was still the same as he is today.

Watching it again now, I have a different feeling.

Jiang Ning used to enjoy watching movies in class, because the purpose of coming to school on weekdays was to study, and playing with mobile phones could only be done secretly, but watching movies openly always made him feel like he was making money.

This kind of allowed arrogance is actually rare in life. When he was in school, he secretly played with his mobile phone. Later he entered the society and was also sneaking around in the company. He has always been sneaky. It seems that he has changed a lot, and it seems like nothing. Nothing has changed.

No matter now or in the future, various rules are everywhere. Jiang Ning's life is full of compromise and helplessness, and he has never gained true freedom.

Jiang Jing watched the movie quietly until 9:30 in the evening, when he found Xue Yuantong in the square in front of the classroom.

"It's a little late. It's not safe to walk at night. Come back with me."

Xue Yuantong listened and said confidently as he walked:

"It's okay. I've walked too much at night, so it's not worth mentioning."

Jiang Ning was silent for a moment.

Xue Yuantong wanted to give herself a slap in the face. She had been worried about studying for a night and thought of various ways to get home. In fact, she could take a taxi, but she had already spent all the money she had with her.

After finally waiting for Jiang Ning to speak, she quickly refused.

Now it's better, Xue Yuantong feels that the future is dark.

Xue Yuantong's rejection was expected by Jiang Ning. He could actually ignore Xue Yuantong. After all, the other party had rejected him several times, but he thought he had to dig up other people's houses.

"You know that I usually go to the river dam at night, right? The river dam is not safe and there are often drunk men. I took a closer look last time and found that there is a grave mound at a distance in the field next to it. Sometimes in the middle of the night, There are people sitting on the graves talking, which is quite scary." Jiang Ning said calmly.

Xue Yuantong fell into silence after saying this.

"Auntie told me before she left that we should take care of each other if there are difficulties. If something happens to you while you are walking, I will definitely feel sorry for you."

"Okay, okay, stop talking, I'll just sit down." Xue Yuantong folded his hands in front of his chest and snorted:

"I'm not afraid of walking at night. I just think it's pitiful for you to ride alone at night, so I reluctantly go with you."

Jiang Ning watched Xue Yuantong pretending but didn't expose it.

When Shen Qing'e left school, she saw Jiang Ning and Xue Yuantong chatting in front of her, and her expression changed. Jiang Ning hadn't contacted her for several days, which made her usually have to go shopping in person, and she was a little uncomfortable for a while.

She glanced at Xue Yuantong a few times. Although he had a clean face, he was extremely short. He looked like a primary school student and often had a straight face. Jiang Ning also had an amazing eye.

"Shen Qing'e, let's go." The classmate next to her called her.

"Yeah, okay." Shen Qing'e responded. She didn't say hello to Jiang Ning. It was completely unnecessary. When she was studying in the middle school in the town, she thought Jiang Ning was a bit unique. Now that she is in the fourth middle school, she is completely ordinary in the class. , just an ordinary classmate.

As for myself, two days into school, she became the focus of discussion among the boys in the class. During the afternoon military training break, the sunny and handsome boy from the next class brought a coke, which attracted the envy of the girls around her. Bathing in the eyes of those girls, Shen Qing'e showed her sweet expression. smile.

She lives at her sister's house, and with the help of Jiang Junlong, who is studying in the experimental class of No. 2 Middle School, her grades will undoubtedly improve by leaps and bounds, leaving Jiang Ning far behind.

She and Jiang Ning are no longer the same people, and the gap will become wider and wider in the future. She has no nostalgia for the past, just bury it in her memories!

Shen Qing'e got into her sister's car at the school gate. Through the car window, she saw Jiang Ning pushing a bicycle, followed by the short Xue Yuantong.

The car started and drove towards the city center where the neon lights were shining. The rearview mirror reflected a large area of ​​gray suburbs, like a run-down countryside, and that was the direction Jiang Ning was heading with the cart.

A faint smile appeared on Shen Qing'e's lips.

…

Jiang Ning pushed the cart and kept walking. Xue Yuantong didn't say anything and followed quietly.

Jiang Ning got on the bike and pointed her toes on the ground:

"Come up and sit."

Xue Yuantong said: "You ride first, and I will jump on the back seat later."

Jiang Ning stepped on the pedals, the wheels turned, and the mountain bike moved forward slowly.

Xue Yuantong took a running start from behind and kicked off his short legs...

Jumped through the air and couldn't reach the seat.

Jiang Ning pretended not to see it and slowed down the car again.

Xue Yuantong took a deep breath and tried again, but still couldn't go up.

Jiang Ning stopped the car, and the atmosphere suddenly became suffocating. Xue Yuantong's face turned red. She was so embarrassed that she felt like she was going to die.

After a long time, Jiang Ning broke the silent air:

"Well, the instructors in the military training are quite strict. Today's training intensity exceeded the standard. The boys in our team complained that they couldn't stand it."

Xue Yuantong said along the way: "Ah, yes, military training is trivial to me. The main reason is that my shoes don't fit my feet and it's very uncomfortable. Do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand." Jiang Ning said with a faint smile.

Xue Yuantong pretended not to see Jiang Ning's expression and looked aside.

"boarding."

"Okay." Xue Yuantong finally got in the car. She was sitting on her side. The back seat cushion was very soft and did not hurt her buttocks.

The mountain bike gradually picked up speed, Xue Yuantong's small hands tightly grasped the edge of the back seat, and his body pressed against Jiang Ning.

She had never been so close to a boy. The night wind in front of her rubbed the hair on her forehead, and Xue Yuantong's heartbeat was slightly faster than usual.
