don't force me

After the graduation ceremony of the third year of senior high school, the "Senior Senior Camp Entry Ceremony" of the second year of high school followed, which was similar to the entry ceremony of the third year of junior high school. It was nothing more than expressing determination to shout slogans.Lin Tingan rushed into the classroom, grabbed two books and ran to the third floor. Zheng Ziyan shouted behind him, "Why are you in a hurry?"

Lin Tingan shouted from a distance: "Grab the cabinet."

The locker at the back of the classroom in Class 1, Senior Three, was used by Du Xuan in the first row from the window, and Lin Tingan must grab that locker.

But when he pushed open the classroom door, Zhou Chen was already standing in front of the locker and sorting things out.Lin Tingan rushed over: "I want this cabinet."

Zhou Chen glanced at him, slowly put in a thick Oxford bilingual book, and said, "Why, I took it first."

"Anyway, I want it." Lin Tingan unreasonably stuffed the book in his hand into the cabinet, "You change it."

"No, who told you not to come earlier."

Lin Tingan was very annoyed. If he had known earlier, he should have held back for a while longer and hadn't gone to the toilet.He tugged on the cabinet door: "Anyway, I want this cabinet."

"Why do you insist on this?" Zhou Chen asked strangely, "Have you been enlightened?"

"It has been opened!" Lin Tingan nodded affirmatively. The No. 17 person in the city personally opened the light, which is extremely effective.

"Then I won't change it anymore." Zhou Chen said, and put another copy of "Ancient Chinese" inside.

Lin Tingan was about to jump, he grabbed Zhou Chen's hand: "Why are you so boring, it's just a cabinet."

While talking, some classmates have already come in one after another, and everyone watched the two people arguing amusedly.Speaking of which, the two of them haven't had much quarrel in recent months, so I miss it.

The old lady Zheng Ziyan came over in a hurry, pulled the two people's hands away and kept persuading: "What's the matter, what's the matter, what's the matter, you can fight even if you clean up a cabinet, you two are really promising."

Zhou Chen: "After I finished packing, he insisted on grabbing my locker. Why, is it a big deal to be the first one?"

"What the fuck does that have to do with running?

"Then why are you robbing my cabinet!"

The students around burst into laughter, and for some reason, Zhou Chen, who had a good mind, dropped his IQ when he met Lin Tingan, while Lin Tingan, who was always tolerant and easygoing, felt so distraught when he saw Zhou Chen.The class once joked that the two of them were "in love and killed each other", but Lin Ting'an almost flipped the table over, and Zhou Chen's face that was about to vomit was like a pregnancy reaction.

After a long time, everyone gets used to it, and it is basically a scene of a class.

Zheng Ziyan said with a headache: "Hey, Lin Tingan, why are you robbing someone's cabinet, why don't you use this, I just wiped it clean."

"No!"

Zheng Ziyan turned his head and said to Zhou Chen, "Why don't you give it to him, and I'll collect your things for you."

"No!"

"Crazy, you two." Zheng Ziyan couldn't help shouting, and the onlookers laughed even more happily.

Lin Tingan took a breath to calm himself down, and also felt that he was a little unreasonable, so he squeezed out an ugly smile and said, "Zhou Chen, let's change. I... I... my lucky number is 3, I like it." This cabinet. That, I'll help you carry your things, and I'll treat you to popsicles after school."

Although this reason is a bit girly, it is at least one. In front of half of the classmates, Zhou Chen felt that he had regained his face.So he let go of his hand and asked Lin Tingan to move things.

Lin Tingan thought as he moved, this is called "bearing humiliation".

After tidying up the cabinets, Lin Tingan stood in the classroom where Du Xuan had struggled for a year, feeling energetic and confident as if he had absorbed the energy of the universe.On the blackboard in front of the classroom, last year's graduates wrote a message that filled the blackboard. Lin Tingan quietly took out his mobile phone to take a photo, and then leaned over to the blackboard to look at it carefully.

Graduation speeches are nothing more than encouragement and admonition. The students in the first class of the third year of senior high school each wrote two strokes. In the middle of the blackboard, a huge plane was drawn straight into the blue sky. class one".The plane is surrounded by blue sky, white clouds and rainbow decorations, as well as colorful ribbons flying around. A podium is drawn in the lower right corner of the blackboard. A grinning three-headed cartoon villain is standing at the top in yellow sportswear. The first layer smiled foolishly, next to which was written "Striving for Number One Bravely".

Very common posters, airplanes, sailboats, runways, podiums... These seem to be the eternal themes of blackboard newspapers, and no one would think about them, but Lin Tingan slowly blushed looking at them.He murmured "recruit me again" in a low voice.

Probably because of the change of classroom, everyone’s mental outlook is different all of a sudden. Every day when we enter and leave the classroom, we look up and see the sign of “Class 1, Grade 365”, and the 1-day countdown sign on the corridor wall is ready. The bulletin board has already posted the ranking of the last monthly exam... Although they still habitually write "Senior Class [-]" when answering the papers, everyone has unconsciously entered the state of "Senior Dog"—— I am so busy barking every day.

But Lin Tingan was busier than others. At the end of May, he took the subway four times a day, took the suburban bus for an hour, and walked five kilometers to Hongluo Temple.

It wasn't the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, and there weren't many people in Hongluo Temple. Lin Tingan really didn't have the money to buy "Gaoxiang" for 888 yuan, so he just made do with a handful of 66 yuan.

He knelt down in front of the Buddha devoutly, held the incense high above his head, and kowtowed respectfully.

"Bless Du Xuan to get what she wants." Lin Ting'an said seriously.

After kowtowing, when he walked out of the main hall, there was cheerful birdsong from the centuries-old magnolia tree in the courtyard. Lin Tingan thought it was a good omen.

Under the tree, a middle-aged woman smiled and asked, "What do you want as a child?"

Lin Tingan froze for a moment.

The man said: "Hongluo Temple is the best way to ask for a son."

Lin Tingan: "..."

In all the hustle and bustle, June [-]th is approaching in the blink of an eye.

The school only had half a day of classes on this day, and all classrooms needed to be thoroughly cleaned. The desks and chairs were stacked according to the standard of five rows and six seats. The entire teaching building will be closed after three o'clock. This will be the battlefield for the college entrance examination in the next two days.The teacher in charge of the exam went to the exam meeting nervously, leaving a group of children laughing and cleaning the classroom.

Du Xuan got his admission ticket a week ago, and was very lucky to be assigned to the third middle school exam.Although he didn't know which classroom he would take the exam in, Lin Tingan still cleaned the classroom with special care, polished the surface of each table, the floor was spotless, and the tables and chairs were arranged horizontally and vertically, neatly.

After everything was cleaned up, Lin Tingan watched the seal on the door of the teaching building. He took a long breath with his schoolbag on his back, not knowing why he was suddenly very nervous.He took out his mobile phone to call Du Xuan, but Du Xuan was a bit noisy.

"Are you not at home?" Lin Tingan asked.

"Yeah." Du Xuan said, "My father invited me out for tea, saying that he was worried that I would be nervous."

"Are you nervous?"

"It's okay," Du Xuan said, "It's fine at home, it's fine to go out for a walk."

"How are you going to school tomorrow?"

"My mother made an appointment for a car."

Lin Tingan said, "A little earlier, in case of traffic jam."

Du Xuan said, "I see. In fact, my father wanted to book a hotel for me in front of the school, but I was not used to it, and I still wanted to go home and live comfortably, so I didn't agree."

Lin Tingan hesitated for a while: "When can you go back today?"

Du Xuan: "After dinner, do you want to come to my house?"

"No, no, I'm just asking, my mother asked me to go home early for dinner." Lin Tingan said against his will.He really didn't want to make Du Xuan nervous, the night before the exam, he should go to bed early in a down-to-earth manner.

Du Xuan smiled lightly: "I will pass the exam, don't worry."

Lin Tingan gently kissed the microphone.

The next day, when Du Xuan walked out of the house, he saw the blue sky and white clouds.Zhou Man booked a car in advance to take Du Xuan off, and looked at him several times while hesitant to speak.

Du Xuan said, "Mom, don't worry, I can pass the exam."

"Xiaoxuan..." Zhou Man hesitated for a moment, then said, "After all these years, mother also knows that you have suffered a lot. It's the last test. Take the test hard."

Du Xuan looked out the window and nodded.

Zhou Man said: "Don't have a psychological burden, just answer the questions seriously, I believe you."

Du Xuan looked out the car window and said softly, "I will pass the exam."

When she was about to arrive at school, Du Xuan suddenly said, "Mom, if I really fail the exam, will you forgive me?"

The driver of the car vomited several times out of the window, "Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah!"

Du Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words."

Zhou Man was also happy, and after a while he said, "Just do your best."

Du Xuan looked at Zhou Man and said seriously: "If I really get into Peking University, I hope you can forgive me for one thing."

Zhou Man frowned, showing a puzzled look.

Du Xuan smiled and said, "Get a vaccination first, and we'll talk about it later, in case I make you unhappy again someday."

Just as Zhou Man was about to ask a few questions, the car had already stopped tens of meters away from the school. Du Xuan opened the door and saw a bright banner at the school gate - the test center of the third high school of the college entrance examination!

College entrance examination!

Du Xuan saw the eyes of candidates and parents, either full of confidence or nervousness, and also saw police cars and ambulances along the street, as if declaring that the exam was of great significance.There are also large display boards lined up at the school gate, on which are written "Calm, Calm, Careful and Calm", and some are written "Golden List titles and brave achievements". The teachers all answered patiently at the school gate with the most gentle smiles. Questions for each candidate.The colorful flags tied to the campus fence fluttered in the wind.

Finally, finally, the day has come!

Zhou Man paid for the car, gently pushed his son and said, "Let's go."

Du Xuan walked slowly to the school gate, and the teacher on duty saw him and greeted him warmly: "Du Xuan, let's work hard at home."

Du Xuan nodded and clenched his fists.

A voice shouted from the crowd: "Du Xuan."

Du Xuan laughed suddenly, he turned around and saw the sweaty Lin Tingan pushing over.

"Why did you come here?"

"I'm definitely going to take the exam." Lin Ting'an said it as a matter of course, and then said hello to Zhou Man respectfully.

Zhou Man smiled and said, "Thank you for coming to cheer for Xiaoxuan."

Lin Tingan asked seriously: "How many pens did you bring? Did you sharpen the pencil? Did you not bring your mobile phone? Where is the admission ticket..."

Du Xuan said with a smile: "You are so worried, maybe I don't bring everything?"

"Hmm... Remember to trace the sentence with a signature pen. When writing the composition, calculate the time, and you must paint the machine to read the card in advance."

Du Xuan helplessly covered Lin Tingan's mouth again: "I'm not nervous at first, if you talk a few more words, I can go directly to the infirmary."

"Don't!" Lin Tingan quickly waved his hands, and at the same time tightly pursed his lips to signal, "I shut up."

Du Xuan stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly opened his arms and said, "Give me a blessed hug."

There are a bunch of people hugging at the school gate, teachers hugging students, fathers hugging daughters, mothers hugging sons, naturally there is no shortage of handsome guys hugging boyfriends.So Lin Tingan immediately opened his arms and rushed over, hugged Du Xuan into his arms, and bound him tightly.

Du Xuan put his chin in the pocket of Lin Tingan's shoulder. The weather in June was already very hot. Lin Tingan rode a bicycle all the way here. His T-shirts were damp and smelled of sweat, which was Lin Tingan's unique smell.Du Xuan took a deep breath calmly, then hugged him tightly.

"Xiao An."

"Ok?"

"I'm going in."

"Well, take it easy."

"Pfft..." Du Xuan laughed, "Seeing that other people are so nervous about the exam, what will you do next year for the college entrance exam?"

"Master, I have never been nervous about an exam in my life."

"Xiao An."

"Ok?"

"I... will pass the exam."

"Well," Lin Tingan nodded, but suddenly called out, "Oh, what time is it, you go in quickly, you have to go to the toilet first."

Du Xuan slowly let go of his hands and stood up straight. He patted Lin Ting'an lightly and said, "Okay, don't be nervous, I can pass the exam even if I am half an hour late."

"Stop bragging, go, go," Lin Tingan pushed Du Xuan, "Hurry up, don't take your bag in, I have to save your bag to waste time, let me carry it for you... Hey, why don't you Take it, you can take a look when you go in... Oh, forget it, what's so good about Chinese... Oh, I'm not right, you can read silently, Du Xuan, you..."

"Okay, you shut up." Du Xuan was amused by his words. He took off the schoolbag on his shoulder, took out the transparent pencil case, and threw the schoolbag to Lin Tingan, saying, "I'm going in."

He turned to Zhou Man and said, "Mom, go to work, I'm fine."

Zhou Man walked over and gave Du Xuan a hug: "Come on, Xiao Xuan."

Du Xuan waved and walked into the school gate.He has walked this door for six full years, but when he walked through it today, he felt a new feeling in his heart, very excited and confident, and he even had an unprecedented sense of urgency.He longed for this exam, just as he longed for someone who could truly accompany him for a long time.This desire stems from the desire for warmth, and also from the expectation of the future.

From now on, everything will be fine, Sanzhong is the beginning of everything, including my love and future.

Du Xuan walked into the gate, walked past the familiar garden and rattan trellises, past the campus exhibition boards he had arranged by himself, and the cultural wall where his calligraphy works were hung.Walking into the examination room and sitting down, he gently closed his eyes, his mind clear.

He said softly, "Xiao An, don't worry."

Outside the examination room, Lin Tingan said to Zhou Man seriously: "Auntie, you can go to work without worry. I will pick up Du Xuan at noon."

Zhou Man said, "it's okay. I'll take a leave of absence."

Lin Tingan: "Du Xuan said that it is very difficult for you to ask for leave and you have to deduct money. In fact, it is not such a troublesome thing. I have already arranged it. I will pick up Du Xuan at noon, and then go to my house to rest. It takes 10 minutes to ride a shared bicycle. I My mother already prepared the dishes and stewed the soup by herself yesterday. I heated up the dishes in advance, and I can have lunch directly when Du Xuan gets home. After eating, Du Xuan can take a nap at most at 10:[-] , and then take the exam in the afternoon. But if he goes home, it will take four or [-] minutes by taxi, which is a waste of time."

Zhou Man hesitated for a moment.

Lin Tingan continued his efforts: "This way you don't have to ask for leave, and you don't have to worry about traffic jams on the road."

Zhou Man looked at Lin Tingan: "It's too much trouble for you."

Lin Ting'an: "What's the trouble, Auntie, you are too polite."

After all, Zhou Man was still persuaded. She looked at Lin Ting'an who was analyzing and explaining her interests in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.In his own eyes, this child has always been mischievous and free-spirited, and his academic performance can't wait for the bottom of the grade. He is a typical bear child.But I didn't expect to be so steady and careful in the blink of an eye.

They've all grown up, which is great.

Lin Tingan watched Zhou Man leave, and stayed at the school gate for a while. The parents at the gate gradually dispersed, and he rode back home.At [-]:[-], he put the food in the microwave, and then rode back to the gate of No. [-] Middle School.Relying on his familiarity, he squeezed to the door of the reception room with a playful smile and became the person closest to the examination room.

At [-]:[-], Du Xuan walked out of the examination room with a relaxed face.

"Here, here, Du Xuan." Lin Tingan shouted, waving his arms.

Du Xuan asked in surprise, "Why are you here again?"

"Let's go," Lin Tingan dragged Du Xuan out of the crowd, "I have already told my aunt that you will go to my house to rest at noon today and tomorrow. My mother made a special meal for you yesterday, and I have already warmed it up." , you can eat it when you get home, and you can take a nap after eating."

Du Xuan: "My mother agrees?"

"Of course." Lin Tingan said proudly, "I have a good tongue." He walked to the side of the road, unlocked a bicycle, patted the back shelf and said, "Come on, I'll take you."

"Where did you get the car from?"

"I borrowed it from Zheng Ziyan, and Mobike can't bring you." Lin Tingan stepped into the car seat and said, "Save your energy and take the math test in the afternoon, tsk, math scum... I will take you by bike."

Du Xuan sat up unceremoniously and put her arms around his waist: "Drive!"

"Let's go, go home!" Lin Tingan kicked hard, and the car slid out briskly, shuttling freely in the traffic.

Du Xuan moved his fingers and grabbed Lin Tingan's waist. There were firm and warm muscles under his palm.Lin Tingan smiled and twisted, and the car drew a strange curve.

"Stop making trouble!" Lin Tingan yelled.

Du Xuan laughed.

The food was specially prepared by Ma Jing. The quantity was not large but very rich and delicate. Du Xuan ate to his heart's content.

Lin Tingan dragged him up from the table: "Go and take a nap."

Du Xuan said lazily, "I still want to read the wrong test book for a while."

"Look at that, go to bed." Lin Tingan pushed him into the bedroom without any explanation, "It depends on your mathematical thinking ability, it doesn't matter if you don't see it, go to sleep!"

"Tsk tsk, look down on me." Du Xuan said as she took off her clothes and put on Lin Tingan's big pajamas.

"Hey, I think I haven't slept in your bed for a long time." Du Xuan got into the thin quilt and turned over comfortably.

Lin Tingan was busy setting the alarm clock on his mobile phone, but when he felt uneasy, he took the clock on the bedside table and rang it.

Du Xuan patted the pillow: "Sleep with me."

Lin Tingan shook his head: "What if I fall asleep, I have to wake up."

"You have set two alarm clocks, don't worry?"

"What if both are broken?" Lin Tingan said seriously, "You sleep, and I'll help you watch the time."

Du Xuan stretched out his hand from under the quilt, and dragged Lin Tingan down on the bed.He blinked and said, "Sleep with me, Young Master An?"

The cry "An Shao" was low and gentle, with a sticky nasal sound.Lin Tingan lay down in a daze in an instant, allowing Du Xuan to hug him tightly and comfortably pillow on his arm.

Lin Tingan turned his head to look at Du Xuan's closed eyes, and kissed him lightly on the lips.

The corner of Du Xuan's mouth showed a beautiful arc, and he tightened his arms, sticking to Lin Ting'an more closely.

The curtains tightly blocked the harsh sunshine in June, and the small bedroom was quiet and comfortable. Du Xuan felt very at ease and very relaxed.Almost instantly, he fell asleep just like that, clamoring to read the math problems.
