miss a useless name

Chapter 5

5.

Ten years ago

In early summer, the weather has begun to be hot and dry, and the second-year students of Nancheng High School have just finished a monthly exam.It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still two hours before lunch time, and then I had to continue my self-study at night.

The strictness of the attached middle school is well known in Nancheng, especially for the students who will be promoted to the third year of high school next semester, these two hours are almost the most reasonable time in a month, and they are called "relax after the exam".

Yu Yan stepped on the steps beside the basketball court under the shade of the trees.

There are two basketball courts in the attached middle school, one is new and the other is old. After a few years, the land under Yu Yan's feet is a sweet pastry. There are three baskets in total. The boys fought back and forth with blood.Later, the school leaders felt that studying alone was not good, and proper physical exercise was still necessary, so they built a gymnasium on the east side of the school. There was everything they wanted in it, and the place was so big that students didn’t like to go there. coming.

Yu Yan put an exercise book under his buttocks, a thick book on his knees, and sat there alone, reading it with gusto.He was afraid of the heat, so he changed into his summer school uniform early, white T-blue pants, the most common and most despised style.It was noisy in the distance, but it was silent right now.

But this silence didn't last long, Yu Yan felt that his butt was still hot, and a few boys in basketball uniforms walked towards this side with smiles and nostalgia.

Yu Yan raised his head slightly and closed the book.

I was a bit back today, Yu Yan sighed, probably because there were too many people playing, and there was no space in the gymnasium.He patted his buttocks and stood up, bent down to take the exercise book on the steps, and shook the ashes.This action brought up the hem of the jacket, lightly revealing a white and narrow waist.

Several boys came up to them.

They threw their schoolbags and coats on the ground casually, which happened to land at Yu Yan's feet.

Yu Yan stood up and was about to leave with his book in his arms, but before he even lifted his leg, someone next to him stopped him: "Hey, classmate!"

Yu Yan stopped and saw a tall boy.

In the boy's world, to praise a person is beautiful, to say that a person is not good-looking is ugly, there are not so many fancy adjectives.Yu Yan has read a lot of books, and at this moment, he also feels that it is too superficial to describe the person in front of him by words such as graceful, unrestrained and suave, or bright eyes, red lips and white teeth.After thinking about it, he still decided to return to the basics. No amount of gorgeous rhetoric is worth a "beauty".No, this word should not be used on boys, it should be "handsome".

The boy smiled at Yu Yan embarrassedly: "Did we bother you? Sorry, there are too many people in the gymnasium today, and we didn't grab the basket."

"It's okay." Yu Yan also smiled at others: "I don't own the playground alone, you guys can play."

The boy saw Yu Yan holding the book, only saw the thickness but not the cover, and looked around again: "Don't go, there are people everywhere at the moment, it's very noisy. Let's go to the farthest basket to fight. I don’t want you.” Then, he greeted his classmates: “Ding Zi, let’s go to that basket!”

"Don't bother..." Yu Yan didn't like to trouble others, so he stopped him: "I'll go back to the classroom and see the same thing."

"Your book will be taken away by the head teacher in the classroom." The boy blinked mischievously: "Let's go over there." He ran away with long legs, stopped a few steps away, and looked at Yu Yu. Yan waved: "Student! Help us look at things by the way! Thank you!"

After saying this, he thanked him several times in succession.

Yu Yan looked down at the schoolbag and clothes lying on the ground, and sat back resignedly.

Yu Yan is obsessed with reading. When he was two years younger, he was not as busy with schoolwork as he is now. He woke up and stayed up all night just to read.But he loves to watch but is not addicted, and he will watch it for a while when he has spare time in studying.

At halftime, the boy came over to get some water to drink.

He squatted on the ground, and took out a bottle of Pulse from the black satchel at Yu Yan's feet.

Yu Yan retracted his feet, looked at the big boy who was dry and dry just now, and now he was dripping with sweat, his face was also flushed with the unique flush after exercise, his short hair was wet with sweat, and he was slapping him casually a wave.

"Are you watching A Dream of Red Mansions?"

The boy sat on the ground, propped his hands on his knees, and glanced at the head of the book.

Yu Yan regained his senses from his face and responded softly.

"I said, why is the book so thick." The boy screwed back the bottle cap, gestured to the other side of the court with his eyes, and asked friendlyly, "Shall we play together? I'll replace you."

Yu Yan had never played with anyone he didn't know well, so he declined.

The boy didn't force it: "Then next time."

Yu Yan sat until the sun was about to go down, and the sky gradually darkened, and it would hurt his eyes to look at it again.He clipped the bookmark and looked at the watch. It was only 05:30.The ball was being played over there, Yu Yan propped his elbows on his knees to watch from a distance.

That boy was outstanding, like a crane thrown into a flock of ducks.Yu Yan is a little face-blind in seeing people. If this attention-grabbing boy hadn't hit him in the face today, he probably wouldn't be able to see it until graduation.

After a while, the noise in the school subsided.

The boy raised his hand and shot a precise three-pointer, his forearm muscles stretched beautifully, and a few drops of sweat dripped down when he turned around.Then he stopped, grabbed the jersey and wiped his face. The young man's thin abdominal muscles rose and fell with the movements, revealing a wide circle of underwear hanging on his hip bones. They were black and filled with an aura of saying no. out of the wild.

He walked towards Yu Yan with the basketball in his arms.

With the setting sun behind him, he was like a ray of light bursting out of the dark clouds, Yu Yan could almost smell the sunshine.

Ah, that's his sweaty, steamy, youthful breath.

"Student, don't go to the cafeteria, go out to eat with us." The boy picked up the schoolbag, fumbled around inside, and asked the person next to him, "Have you brought any paper?"

"What kind of paper are you using, go back and take a shower!"

"It's rough, I'm sweating all over my body."

Yu Yan paused, and took out a half-used napkin from his pocket.

The boy looked down and drew two: "Thank you, I really troubled you today. Do you agree with what I said just now? Just take it as thank you for helping us look at things, let's eat together."

Yu Yan shook his head: "I'm not going, there are still two homework questions that I haven't written, and they will be handed in at the end of the evening self-study."

"Ah, so."

The boy looked a little disappointed, and his classmates came over to persuade him after seeing him, and said with a Yu Yan smile, "I really won't go." Seeing his firm attitude, it was not good to delay his study, so he had to give up.

"I'm going to the cafeteria first, let's meet again when we have a chance."

The politeness Yu Yan said, everyone knows that "has a chance" is basically equal to "no chance".

Before leaving, the boy said, "My name is Cheng Shen, a sophomore in high school. What about you?"

Yu Yan glanced at Cheng Shen slightly in astonishment. He didn't recognize this person, but his name was familiar.There are such myths in almost every grade, either they are at the top of the grade list, or they have something special. Yu Yan is one of them, and so is Cheng Shen.The frequency of the two appearing on the same list is very high, but they are often far apart.

Cheng Shen will always be the one at the head. Although Yu Yan is not at the bottom, he is easily drowned in the confusion of names.

Yu Yan replied: "I'm Yu Yan from the experimental class." He looked at the face in front of him who suddenly laughed, and hurriedly added: "...also a sophomore in high school science."

Cheng Shen snapped his fingers next to his ear, and said softly, "I know."

On Monday morning, the monthly exam results came out.

Yu Yan locked the car and went to see the honor roll, and it was no surprise that Cheng Shen ranked first in science.

What does this person do? He looks good, plays well, and has good grades.Yu Yan felt that people were more annoying than others, so he hurriedly searched for his name.

eighth.

Yu Yan tugged on the strap of his schoolbag, poked open the milk and sucked a few mouthfuls.

In the first math class, Yu Yan spread out the papers, and when the teacher made mistakes, he corrected them with a red pen, and spent the rest of the time brushing up the physics exercise book by himself.

He is good at Chinese and English, and he is also good at mathematics. Although he is good at science and comprehensive science, he must criticize physics.

Yu Yan felt that he was born at odds with physics. Although he didn't want to be a contemporary Newton, and he wasn't interested in studying the motion of celestial bodies, he still respected physics very much. However, learning this thing doesn't mean you respect it, and it can be friendly to you.Yu Yan can only work harder here and strive for a few more places next time. It is impossible to surpass it. There is still hope for grabbing the tail of the first in the grade.

During the two classes, Yu Yan basically didn't look up.During the big class break, the deskmate called him to go to the toilet, Yu Yan shrank his stomach and felt it, shook his head and said "no".

He turned back, and when he relaxed his lower abdomen, he somehow remembered the boy's abdominal muscles under the afterglow of the sunset yesterday.

Yu Yan looked around, everyone was studying.So he secretly lifted his clothes and quickly lowered his head to take a look.

Damn, the fight for abs is also defeated!

He was depressed, and the black pen was quickly calculating on the draft paper.Suddenly he heard someone calling him: "Yu Yan, someone is looking for you!"

"Huh?" Yu Yan is usually very quiet, except for his classmates, he basically doesn't know anyone else, now he becomes puzzled.

He looked out the window, his wonder turned into surprise, and Cheng Shen beckoned him outside.

Yu Yan put down his pen, went around to the door of the classroom, poked his head against the door frame and asked, "Are you looking for me?"

Cheng Shen put one hand behind his back: "Come here."

Yu Yan touched the tip of his nose, the white sneakers crossed the dark threshold, and obediently walked over: "What are you doing?"

Cheng Shen is really tall, and Yu Yan is half a head shorter than others.

"Here you are." Cheng Shen said.

Yu Yan looked down and saw that Cheng Shen was carrying a big bag filled with colorful snacks.

Seeing Yu Yan was dumbfounded, Cheng Shen couldn't help laughing, and stretched out his other hand: "And this."

Chocolate milk is a brand that Yu Yan often drinks.

Cheng Shen stuffed food and drink into Yu Yan's hands: "There were a lot of people yesterday, and the boys in our class were very noisy. I guess you don't want to eat with us, so I'll give you some snacks. Thank you for your help."

"No, no, no..." Yu Yan hurriedly pushed back: "I'm just passing by, so it wouldn't be like this."

"There is a first-come-first-served basis for land grabs. We occupied your land and quarreled with you to read books. This thank you gift is nothing."

Yu Yan refused: "That's not my place, it's the school's place, anyone can go there, it's really unnecessary."

"It wasn't necessary at first. It's over if you left with us last night. It's not going to happen now. We have to be principled."

How is this a matter of principle.

Yu Yan would not be rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and refused to follow through with death, so he pushed and agreed, and the hands of both of them were entangled.

"Do you want it or not?" After confronting each other for a long time, Yu Yan was determined not to accept it, and Cheng Shen had no choice but to bluff people half-truthfully: "It's okay if you don't want it, and I don't want it either, you can find a place to throw it away." .”

After finishing speaking, Cheng Shen let go of his hand, and a bag of snacks fell out with a "crash", and he turned his head and walked away as if he didn't see it.

"Cheng Shen!"

Yu Yan chased after a few steps, saw the person disappearing at the top of the stairs, turned around and saw a place of snacks, whether he was advancing or retreating, and finally put everything back honestly, and carried it into the classroom with his mouth pursed.

The bell rang.

Cheng Shen withdrew his peeking eyes, and finally walked back to his classroom with peace of mind.

The snack bag was thrown under his feet, Yu Yan finished the last question, packed his schoolbag and prepared to go home.

I kicked the package with my heel, and the chocolate milk was on the corner of the table.

Yu Yan was a little upset.

After unlocking the bike and picking it up, Yu Yan hung the food on the handlebar of the bike, lightly rang the bell and rode out of the campus.

He couldn't just take a big bag of food from others like this, Yu Yan was still thinking about it on the way back, but Cheng Shen insisted on giving it to him, so he had to pay him something back.

But what else?

Yu Yan thought of the rows and rows of books in his room, he looked like a nerd, how could he give anything to others.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the temperature is a bit cold.

Along the way Yu Yan went home was the famous river in Nancheng. He was riding on the road, glancing at the sparkling river water from the corner of his eye.

A car bell rang behind him, and Yu Yan leaned in.

"Hi!"

The voice was unfamiliar, yet familiar.

Yu Yan turned his head in astonishment, and saw Cheng Shen's face.

The man was also riding a bicycle, chasing up from behind, the wind blew his forehead hair, the short sleeves of the school uniform looked unconventional, the street lamps warmed his smile, and the sparkling water of the river became the light in his eyes.

"Crunch -" a sound.

Yu Yan pressed the handbrake hard.
