guarding you for seven years

The sky is endlessly blue with white clouds floating. Xia Lu said that this is the color of freedom.

Part II NO.1 of the third year

The life in the third year of high school was extremely boring, and the pressure of Gao Qiang made people feel particularly restless.Liu Yao was sitting behind Xia Lu, looking at the girl with short ear-length hair in front, Liu Yao was in a daze. After observing for a few days, he found that Xia Lu was an extremely difficult girl. This kind of difficulty does not mean that Xia Lu is a person Not easy to get along with, but hard to get close to. She is kind and kind to all her classmates, but she has an inexplicable alienation. If you are not careful, you will not notice her alienation. She isolates herself from everyone's world , Liu Yao felt that he had been around for so long and was a person with strong observation skills, but it was difficult for him to understand this girl.Liu Yao thought of the word "clear spring". If everyone is sea water, then she is a clear spring. In this salty sea, she still guards her sweetness alone.

She can do a math problem for the whole class, even if the bell rang at the end of the class, she didn't solve it. She can wander the whole class blankly, not paying attention to what the teacher said, and she can quickly write down what the teacher said. Every key point, Liu Yao feels that Xia Lu is like a blank sheet of paper, right in front of you, but you can't understand anything.

"Liu Yao, come and answer this question. Tell me what the valence of this element is." The chemistry teacher's voice came from the podium, and Liu Yao came back to his senses, not knowing what the teacher asked.Since entering high school, Liu Yao has firmly sat on the number one throne and has never been shaken.The teacher saw that Liu Yao was in a daze just now, and asked him to get up to answer the question. Normally Liu Yao could answer a simple question with his eyes closed, but today the name Xia Lu was circling in his mind. It's floating clouds.Liu Yao stood up awkwardly, swallowed his saliva, and didn't know how to answer. The students around him began to laugh, "Teacher, her head is shaking so that I feel dizzy and have a headache. I didn't understand the question you just asked." Liu Yao Yao's finger pointed at Xia Lu's head, and the students around couldn't help bursting into laughter. Xia Lu stopped taking notes and found that everyone was staring at her. She turned around and saw Liu Yao pointing at herself. She instantly understood what Liu Yao said What made him dizzy and had a headache was his head shaking, Xia Lu glared at Liu Yao angrily, the trembling fingers that held the pen showed that she was trying to restrain her urge to get angry, Xia Lu turned back to her body, not looking at the thing behind her that made her Those who are angry, the students around are still laughing.Liu Yao raised his eyebrows resentfully, he saw the anger on Xia Lu's face, this was the effect he wanted, to piss her off.

"Look at the blackboard carefully, don't stare at other people's heads, you won't get dizzy, sit down." The teacher eased the embarrassment, "Zhang Liqian, you answer." The teacher asked the students in the first row to answer, this little episode quickly In the past, the teacher continued to teach.

Xia Lu couldn't listen to a word anymore, she felt uncomfortable, she hated the people behind her, especially the people behind her.But Liu Yao behind him smiled proudly, Xia Lu, so you look so cute when you are angry.

As soon as the class bell was over, Xia Lu was the first to walk out of the classroom. Liu Yao looked at Xia Lu's leaving figure and smiled slightly. Sun Shike walked behind him and patted his shoulder, "Liu Yao, it's too much, don't care Why Xia Lu is a girl and a new classmate, please restrain yourself." Liu Yao looked up at Sun Shike, smiling even more proudly, "What? You feel bad." Sun Shike frowned, and put it back on Liu Yao The hands on the shoulders, "Are you insane?" "Just kidding, I didn't expect her to be so unbearable, so let's not make trouble in the future." Liu Yao knew that if he continued, Sun Shike would really be angry, there was no need Xia Lu has already been angered, and Sun Shike is going to be angered.Sun Shike glanced at Liu Yao indifferently, turned and returned to her seat.

In the next few days, Liu Yao was very peaceful and didn't find any troubles with Xia Lu. Xia Lu became more and more silent and didn't say a few words all day long. She sat quietly in her seat. Only Xiao Zi came to find Xia Lu. Xia Lu would go out to talk to Xiao Zi when it was time.

Liu Yao was a little confused, did he really go too far?It seems that she is not a girl who holds grudges. I didn't expect it to be so difficult to provoke.Looking at the figure in the front seat, Liu Yao struggled a little. He usually teased some classmates, but he never teased girls. As for Xia Lu, he just couldn't help but want to provoke her, and didn't want to see her expressionless face.

Xia Lu is very thin, and the school uniform looks very fat on her body, wrapping Xia Lu's thin body, and the large school uniform extends to the corner of Liu Yao's desk. Liu Yao picks up his pen and writes on the white part of the school uniform After starting to draw, Xia Lu listened carefully to the class and didn't notice the movement of the people behind her. Not long after, a cute jingle cat appeared on the school uniform. The drawing was not bad. Liu Yao's deskmate chuckled softly, and Liu Yao signaled not to He made a sound and continued to draw the Jingdong cat on the clothes until the painting was completed, but Xia Lu didn't notice it.Liu Yao looked at the cat on the clothes, and felt a little regretful that he didn't color it. It would be good if it was colored.

The progress of the whole class was very fast, and Xia Lu felt that she would not be able to keep up. Looking at the blank test papers, she was listless. Since entering the key class, the study pressure was obviously much greater. Compared with the basic knowledge here The classmates seem weak, and they can't solve many problems by themselves. They don't know how to ask the classmates or the teacher, so they can only be left there.

Sitting in the stands after dinner, it was the end of October, and the weather was getting colder. Xia Lu watched the red sun gradually setting in the west, enjoying a rare moment of peace.Liu Yao stood on the playground and looked at Xia Lu in the stands, feeling that loneliness surrounded Xia Lu, yes, it was loneliness.

Liu Yao saw Xia Lu who had finished eating in the cafeteria, walked to the stands on the side of the playground alone, followed from a distance, he didn't know why he did this, he just wanted to know where she was going.Xia Lu was sitting quietly like that, the setting sun was shining on Xia Lu, Liu Yao was obsessed with Xia Lu covered in sunshine, the faint loneliness and sadness surrounded Xia Lu, very harmonious, as if she was born with sadness For company.

In the evening self-study, Xia Lu looked at the pile of test questions she couldn't do with a headache, unable to start.There will be a monthly exam next week, and I will definitely be sent back to the regular class in this state. I think it's really a different experience for me to go in and out.

Xiao Zi waited for Xia Lu to go back to the dormitory together after studying by himself in the evening, "Xia Lu, help me get the book, I untied my shoelace, I will tie it." Xia Lu took Xiao Zi's book and stood in front of Xiao Zi, Xiao Zi Zi stood up and saw a jingle cat drawn on the corner of Xia Lu's back.

"Xia Lu, who drew a jingle cat on your clothes." Xiao Zi approached and grabbed the corner of Xia Lu's back, Xia Lu turned her face but couldn't see it, "Don't look at it, wait until you go back to the dormitory to see it , The drawing is quite nice. It’s so cute, whoever drew it, I want to draw one too.” Xiao Zi grabbed the corner of her clothes. "I don't know who drew it. I didn't have it when I put on my clothes in the morning." Xia Lu couldn't figure out the situation. Why was there a cat painted on her clothes?

Back in the dormitory, Xia Lu took off her clothes and looked at the jingle cat on the corner of her back. Liu Yao's unbeaten face appeared in her mind, it should be him, it must be him.Xia Lu was a little angry, she didn't know where she had provoked this person, it always made her embarrassed.

The next day, when Xia Lu walked into the classroom, Liu Yao was reading a book. Xia Lu threw the school uniform in front of Liu Yao's eyes.Liu Yao blinked and looked at Xia Lu who was almost smoking above his head, and then looked at the school uniform on the table. He was a little puzzled, but when he saw the jingle cat on the clothes in a blink of an eye, he instantly understood.

Liu Yao raised his eyebrows habitually, seeing that Xia Lu didn't say a word, Xia Lu lowered her head and went back to her seat, she didn't want the clothes, if you like it, I will give it to you, Xia Lu thought to herself.I don't want to have any communication with the people behind me.

Liu Yao felt a little innocent. Didn't he just draw a cat? If he doesn't like it, he can just wash it off, but he draws it pretty well.Liu Yao quietly put away his school uniform, looked at the head with short ear-length hair, and now stepped on the cat's tail again. It was really a cat with fried hair, not at all cute as Jingdong cat.

Xia Lu secretly felt sulking for a whole day, and finally made it to the end of school, and could finally rest tomorrow and Sunday.Xia Lu walked out of the teaching building, turned around and looked at the teaching building in front of her, which was still as proudly standing as it was two years ago, but she didn't have the feeling of admiring its grandeur two years ago.

"Xia Lu, do you want to find a tutor for you to make up your lessons?" The father looked at his daughter with some relief, thinking that it was true that he used his relationship to let her enter the experimental middle school. A key university is no problem. "Dad, no need, I can do it." After Xia Lu finished speaking, she continued to eat quietly, "Eat more, I haven't come back for two weeks, have you lost weight again?" Mom picked up vegetables for Xia Lu, "Just try your best , don't push yourself too much, your body is important." Looking at the still thin daughter in front of her, the mother couldn't bear to say the words of persecution.

"It's only been a few months of hard work. Mom and Dad have no great skills and can't help you. The future can only depend on you." Dad looked at his daughter who was eating quietly, and he couldn't bear it, but he had to say , he hasn't studied for a few years, and he works hard all day to support his family. He doesn't want his daughter to rush around all day.

"I know, I'm fine now, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me. Dad, you trust me." Xia Lu exhaled quietly, pressed the weight back, and said to her parents in a brisk tone, and finally That sentence hurt the father's heart, yes, he should trust his daughter.

Xia Lu said for sure, this is the tacit understanding between her and her father. My father let me handle many things. I remember when I was eight years old, and I was still in primary school. My father said, "I believe my girl can handle her own affairs well. Xia Lu, do you believe it?" At that time, Xia Lu was ignorant, but after growing up, Xia Lu deeply understood what independence is.

Xia Lu lay on the bed feeling a little worried, what should she do?

Returning to school on Monday and walking into the classroom, Liu Yao was still sitting on his seat reading a book, Xia Lu glanced at him lightly, ignored him, and didn't ask what happened to his school uniform, anyway, he still had one.Liu Yao looked up and saw Xia Lu's head with short ear-length hair, and wanted to laugh a little. Thinking about the school uniform in his drawer, he looked forward to it, wondering if she would like it, and I will give it to her after school.

After dinner, Xia Lu sat in the stands to watch the sunset as usual, the weather was getting colder and colder, and he didn't have much time to watch the sunset in the future, so he had to use all available time.

"Xia Lu." A voice came from behind, Xia Lu turned her head, and Liu Yao stood behind her at some point.

The golden sunset began to turn red, and the autumn wind was a bit harsh, messing up Xia Lu's short hair around her ears. Liu Yao stood there, his school uniform swaying with the autumn wind, and the pretty Danfeng looked at Xia Lu.Xia Lu was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Liu Yao to appear here, she stood up and was about to leave, she really didn't want to have any contact with this person.Liu Yao reached out to block Xia Lu's way, only then did Xia Lu discover the box in Liu Yao's hand, a pale green box.

"Here you are." Liu Yao handed the box to Xia Lu, Xia Lu just looked at him and didn't pick up the box. "Just return your things to you." Liu Yao stuffed the box into Xia Lu's hands, and Xia Lu hugged the box awkwardly, not knowing what to say for a while.Liu Yao turned around and supported the railing on the edge of the stand, and looked up at the red sun that was about to set in the distance, "I didn't expect you to be able to pick a place, the sunset here is not bad." Xia Lu looked at Liu Yao's back, Liu Yao Turning around, looking at Xia Lu's sluggish expression, he laughed mischievously.

When we were young, because of our youthful vigor, we often had frictions and conflicts with each other, big or small, deep or shallow, but we were able to give each other a smile when we turned around, and all those barriers and contradictions disappeared. It is to enjoy those ignorant but clear friendships in youth, which may be the original appearance of love.
