Sentimental campus, you need to be cautious when entering the pit!

In June, the scorching sun baked the ground, and people came and went in a hurry at the entrance of the hospital. No one wanted to stay for a long time in such hot weather, so no one noticed the seven or eight-year-old girl on the bench.

The little girl curled up on Nagasaki in a wooden way, buried her head in her knees as much as possible, and curled up into a small ball. Her petite body only occupied a small corner of the bench, so it was not easy for her People noticed her presence.

But she was found anyway.

A pair of white and petite palms rested lightly on the little girl's shoulders.The little girl raised her head slowly, her eyes were red, and there was a white gauze on her clean and beautiful forehead.The glare of the sun made the little girl squint her eyes slightly, because her vision was not so clear after crying just now, and she could see a girl about her age in front of her vaguely.

The girl smiled at her, her eyes were curved, and there was a shallow dimple on each cheek, like a princess in a fairy tale. Standing in front of her, against the sun, her small body seemed to be shining.

"Don't cry, Xichen, I will be your older sister from now on, and my older sister will always be by your side to protect you." The girl's voice was warm and soft, as if it was stained with some kind of magical power, carrying the sun's scorching heat. The temperature penetrated Gu Xichen's eardrums and permeated his whole body.

Gu Xichen slowly opened her eyes wide, her pretty little face was still stained with tears, but her eyes gradually became brighter, she blinked and blinked, as if to confirm whether the beautiful young lady in front of her would suddenly disappear .

In the heart of the young Gu Xichen, Xia Yi at that time was like an angel, clean, pure white, warm and full of light.

That year, Gu Xichen was eight years old and Xia Yi was nine years old.

That year, Gu Xichen became an orphan.

That year, Gu Xichen moved into Xia Yi's house and called Xia Yi's parents as parents.

It was also from that year that Gu Xichen became less talkative, became silent, and also became stronger.She cut off her long hair and never wore a skirt again, because she told herself that she could no longer be weak and cry like a girl.Because after she lost her parents, she had another person she wanted to protect.

There was complete silence outside the window, and in the room, Xia Yi was sitting at the desk, writing hard, with a particularly focused expression.Next to the writing desk is a single bed, and the pure white tone shows the owner's preference.Gu Xichen was holding a magazine, lying casually against the head of the bed, flipping the pages carelessly with one leg bent.

The room was quiet, except for the 'rustling' sound of Xia Yi's pen tip and the 'crashing' sound of Gu Xichen flipping through the magazines from time to time.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Xichen slowly shifted his gaze to Xia Yi.Her long, thick hair like a begonia was loosely tied behind her ears, her back was straight, her mouth was slightly pursed, and her expression was a little tired.

Gu Xichen frowned slightly.

There was a moderate massage on the shoulder, and Xia Yi turned her head slightly and saw a slender finger with well-defined joints. She was slightly startled, and turned her head to meet a pair of dark eyes.

"Don't work too hard, rest early." Gu Xichen lowered his head, and from this angle, he could clearly see a shadow under her long eyelashes.

Xia Yi looked up at her, the corners of her mouth slightly curved: "Well, you too."

Gu Xichen nodded, turned around and walked towards the door, twisted the lock, walked out, then gently twisted the lock to close it, and let it go.

Xia Yi stared at the door, and nine years passed in a daze. The little girl who used to curl up on the bench and cry was now taller than herself, and her behavior revealed a boyish air.However, Xia Yi smiled, she was quite cool, and I don't know if any girls would like my Xichen.Xia Yi was taken aback by her sudden thought, shook her head, and continued to immerse herself in her studies.

In the summer before the summer vacation, Leiya had voluntarily resigned from her job as the president of the student union, and was preparing to concentrate on dealing with the heavy schoolwork of the third year of high school and sprinting for the college entrance examination. However, as the former president of the student union, she was still drawn to do volunteer work.

There are not many things to do at the beginning of the new semester, but there are also many things. Xia Yi and a few students from the student union are arranging and tidying up the auditorium while listening to their chats.

"I heard that there is a transfer student in the second year of high school this semester."

"What's so special about transfer students? Isn't there every year?"

"You haven't heard of that, have you?" The girl deliberately lengthened the ending, blinked before continuing, "I heard that this transfer student gave Ji Mo a big blow on his first day at school."

The boy who asked the question suddenly gasped.

Who is Ji Mo?Ji Mo is actually a "legend". It is a legend that has been circulated in Yuzhong for five years, because the protagonist Ji Mo has already read "Senior Six" here. It's pretty tough.

Sitting in the classroom, Gu Xichen was chattering all about this transfer student. Wherever there are people, there are gossips. This is one of the unyielding traditions of Chinese people.

Accompanied by the sound of high-heeled shoes, the classroom suddenly fell silent. The head teacher appeared on the podium, pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and began to present his speech.

It was nothing more than a long speech on the routine of the new semester, Gu Xichen continued to look at the album in his hand without raising his head.I don't know what was said on the podium, there was a sudden commotion in the class, and then it became quiet in an instant, and there were subtle whispers in front of them.

"How did she get assigned to our class?"

"Unlucky, stay away from her."

"The most unlucky thing is Gu Xichen, who is at the same table as her." The girl sitting in front of Gu Xichen turned her head and gave her a sympathetic look.

Gu Xichen frowned slightly, but still did not look up.With the sound of high heels going away, the classroom began to buzz, but no one spoke loudly.

"My name is Lin Ziqi, we will be at the same table from now on, please take care of me."

Very pleasant voice, like the tinkling sound of a spring stream in March.Gu Xichen turned his head and looked, the girl in front of him was wearing a ponytail, wearing a very ordinary T-shirt and jeans, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, making a pair of peach blossom eyes slightly raised, and she was standing in front of the desk with her back to the window and reaching out to her.

There was a ray of sunlight piercing through the window, Gu Xichen slightly squinted his eyes, as if he could smell the sunshine.

Lin Ziqi didn't wait for her reply, so he sat down and cleaned up the desk on his own. Gu Xichen was surprised for a second, then turned around and ignored her.

The first weekend of the new semester is undoubtedly an exciting day for students who have not yet adjusted from the holidays.

It is the last class of Yuzhong this week, and the class has long been confused and impatient.The two girls in the front row of Gu Xichen have already started discussing tomorrow's shopping plans, and the peach blossoms are blooming in spring, and they meet a certain high-grade male god for a romantic encounter....

Gu Xichen twitched the corner of his mouth, it's late summer and early autumn now.Their age is the time when their love first started, although it is not common to have a puppy love in high school, there are quite a few.Lin Ziqi beside her looked extraordinarily calm, lowering her head and taking notes seriously and patiently.

This week, Gu Xichen and this legendary tablemate have been living in peace. She seems to be inconsistent with the rumors. She listens carefully in class, reads silently after class, and walks out of the classroom quietly after school. However, with more contact, it's not as contradictory as the rumors say.

Walking on the crowded playground after school, Gu Xichen went to the carport to get his bicycle and walked towards the school gate. From a distance, he saw Xia Yizheng surrounded by several first-year boys.When Gu Xichen approached, several boys reluctantly said goodbye from her side.

"A freshman from the first year of high school has been entangled again?" Gu Xichen joked with a smile, and only when facing Xia Yi, she would show a rare mischievous side.

"Don't think about it, they just asked me a few mathematical formulas." Xia Yi rubbed her forehead with her slender fingers, with a helpless smile on her lips.

"Then sister, I'm afraid there are too many formulas that you need to solve every day." Gu Xichen smirked, watching Xia Yi pretend to be angry before getting on the bicycle with satisfaction.

It's not that Gu Xichen doesn't know why so many boys in the school exclude her, because Xia Yi is riding on the back seat of her bicycle instead of theirs.But Gu Xichen doesn't care about these things. It can also be said that apart from Xia Yi and her parents, she doesn't care about anything in this world.

The sun crossed the horizon and slowly sank to the west of the city, the sky was covered with a blush, the noise of cars passed by occasionally, and the breeze blew her long hair like a begonia fluttering, Xia Yi sat Suddenly feeling a little cold on the bicycle, he tightly wrapped his hands around Gu Xichen and leaned behind her.

"Sister, do you know the girl who just transferred from another school?" Gu Xichen's bangs on his forehead were blown to pieces by the wind, and his eyes were fixed on the front.

"Well, I heard that."

"She was assigned to our class and was at the same table as me."

Xia Yi felt a little strange, this was the first time that Xichen mentioned someone in front of her: "Well, how is she?"

Gu Xichen paused, she also didn't understand what kind of person Lin Ziqi was, that's why she was curious: "I just think she's quite special."

The cold drink shop on the side of the road was closed down, while the small teppanyaki shop next to it was gradually becoming hot, and students wearing all kinds of school uniforms lingered in it, and bursts of aroma came into Xia Yi's nostrils with the wind.She didn't answer any more calls, she just wanted to go home quickly and eat the hot meals cooked by her mother.
