looking back inadvertently

After Xu Wenshan transferred to another school, there was an extra seat in the penultimate row. Luo Mingyu readjusted the class seats, Shen Zhe moved forward, Wen Hao moved far away, and Liang He became the next table to Cao Lei.

Shen Zhe's mood is slowly recovering, and he spends more energy on his studies to divert his attention.

Cao Lei is not used to studying by herself in the evening, plus she has good grades and does not need any supervision, so she applied to Luo Mingyu to leave school as usual.Every night, the seat next to Liang He is vacant.

During the evening self-study period, the teacher was not so strict about the class seat control, and there were often people who exchanged seats with each other. Shen Zhe still went to his side for self-study, and said that Liang He could help him with math or English.

"So hardworking?" Liang He noticed that Shen Zhe came over with another pile of review materials.

"Well, besides studying, I don't know what to do."

There seemed to be a trace of helplessness in his words.

"Are you all right?" Liang He asked.

"It's okay," he smiled and shook his head, "by the way, don't call my cell phone from now on."

"what happened?"

"I returned the phone to my dad."

Liang He was slightly surprised: "Didn't you say that uncle can understand you?"

"It's because I don't want to use it anymore," Shen Zhe said indifferently, "It's not very useful, and it's easy to get distracted. From now on, I'll study hard and improve every day."

A few nights ago, Shen Zhe received the last two messages from Xu Wenshan.

[Don't regret it, just return to the original track. 】

【You are the gentlest person I have ever met, Shen Zhe.Thank you for letting me have such a happy time. 】

Shen Zhe looked at it for a long time. He wanted to clear the information in the phone, but he couldn't. Finally, he turned off the phone, took out the phone card, and handed these to Shen Sihong.

When he said that, Liang He could also guess that there should be a lot of past memories on the phone, if you keep them, the loss may be more difficult to fade away.

"I also think it's useless, and I won't let it turn on." Liang He agreed lightly.

Even though he lived on campus and had few opportunities to make phone calls, Shen Zhe still gave Liang He his home number, and then spread out the exercise book.

"Listen to music?" Liang He shook the Walkman in his hand, and handed him a black headphone cable, "Do the questions while listening, the effect is not bad."

Shen Zhe saw Liang He bring his Walkman to the classroom for the first time. He also had it himself, but he always put it in the dormitory.

"What song is it?"

"Pu Shu's," Liang He put the other earplug into his left ear, "Didn't you say you wanted to borrow my tape?"

It seems to be before the chorus competition last semester.

"Oh, but you never brought it."

"I always forget," Liang He said with a smile, "You didn't remind me."

"I thought you were just talking casually, so you have the nerve to chase after it."

"It's okay, it's not too late to listen now, let's listen together."

"What should Mr. Luo do if he finds out?" It wasn't obvious before, but now Shen Zhe has some unexplainable wariness towards their class teacher.

"I'm bringing an English tape." Liang He showed a box of "English Listening Comprehension for College Entrance Examination" in the drawer, "I'll change it as soon as she comes."

"Good for you."

A pair of earphones, two ear wires, one on Shen Zhe's right ear and one on Liang He's left ear.

The plugged ears are itchy, the voice from inside is a little low and hoarse, a very sad song, gloomy Soviet tune, the content is about the soldiers who went to the battlefield, and their bones are buried in other lands forever, and they swore to each other In the birch forest, the beloved girl is waiting for him until death (*).Shen Zhe wondered vaguely whether it would be unforgettable only if it touches life and death.

The song sang for several minutes, and then the intro to the next one began.Liang He remained vigilant all the time, noticing the heavy footsteps outside the classroom, thinking there was something wrong, he quickly pressed pause.

It turned out that Wen Hao and a few boys came in fighting.

"Scared to death, you?" Liang He complained to him.With such an interruption, he and Shen Zhe didn't listen to the song anymore.

"It's not time for class anyway." Wen Hao didn't return to his seat and came here to join in the fun. He glanced at Shen Zhe, who was expressionless, and then said to the two, "Hey, I'm studying with Liang He tonight. Bar?"

"What?" Shen Zhe and Liang He looked at him at the same time.

"Cao Lei is not here, who can sit in her place?" Wen Hao looked at Shen Zhe pitifully, "Brother Shen, give me a day."

Shen Zhe took off the ear wire, returned it to Liang He, and replied swiftly: "No."

"Why? You are not Liang He's deskmate now."

"It was before," he said confidently, "so I have priority at the same table."

"What kind of bullshit logic are you talking about?"

"I'm used to sitting, okay?"

……

The two quarreled back and forth, and Liang He laughed wildly uncontrollably.

"What's wrong?" They finally stopped talking in unison.

"You two are like this," Liang He teased, "just like concubines competing for favor in the harem."

Shen Zhe and Wen Hao lowered their faces at the same time, Liang He thought he would be beaten by them together.However, at this time, Wen Hao, who had a strange look on his face, suddenly grinned and said with a mean smile: "Then, who is Emperor Liang planning to favor tonight?"

Liang He made it up to himself, and felt goosebumps all over his body from the disgust of the tone, maintaining his composure on the surface, he waved his hand away: "You'd better back down, Xiao Wenzi."

"No—why?" Wen Hao returned to his normal tone, "He has been hanging around with you for several days, why don't you let me do it for a day?"

"He wants to study hard, not like you are here to make trouble." Liang He opened a certain page in the math book, "If you want to sit here, finish the questions on this page first."

"Forget it," Wen Hao quickly changed his words, squeezed his throat again, and said to Shen Zhe, "Mrs. Shen, the emperor will entrust you tonight."

Shen Zhe raised his right hand and slashed at his back, Wen Hao quickly dodged and fled back to his seat.

"Cough, let's continue with the questions." As soon as Wen Hao left, Liang He was too embarrassed to make that oily joke again.

Shen Zhe didn't say anything. The homework assigned by the teacher was basically completed. He opened the tutorial book and the draft book again, and wrote on them one by one. After doing a few questions, he lightly poked Liang He's elbow and pushed the notebook away. give him.

"Is this the one on page 28?" Liang He hadn't read carefully what he wrote, and his handwriting was neat and neat.

"Well," Shen Zhe showed an abnormal smile, watching Liang He's heart tremble, and then spit out a few words lightly, "Emperor Liang, are you still satisfied?"

Liang He almost didn't come up in one breath.

If Wen Hao said this kind of thing, he would at most feel chills, but hearing Shen Zhe say it, he was overwhelmed with shame, and his heart beat faster.

"Why are you like this?" He admitted defeat first.

"Didn't you learn this from you?" Shen Zhe's smile was still sinister, "Taking advantage is fun, right? Do you still want to be emperor?"

"No," Liang He moved forward and retreated freely, "I'll let you do what you want."

"I am the emperor, what are you?"

"Being a queen—" he realized that this was not quite right, "no...then be too emperor, or a prince."

"That's a pretty good idea." Shen Zhe laughed a few times, forced himself to get rid of the meaningless verbal dispute, and continued to point to the finished question, "Is there anything wrong?"

"Let me see……"

The bell for evening self-study has just rang, and the teacher on duty tonight has not yet arrived, and there are whispers like boiling water flowing around the classroom.

Liang He lowered his voice, pointed out two mistakes in the notebook, and waited for the other party to correct them.

After a while, he turned his head and found that the distance between the two of them was very close, so close that he could clearly see the half-hidden veins on the back of Shen Zhe's hand.
