On the first day when he was really accepted into the Xi family, Lu Ming did not go to bed early.

She was sitting on the bay window with a soft pillow in her arms, looking at the house she was already familiar with.

Today she can finally define this place as "home".

The semi-circular windows open Luming's sight, and the tree shadows sway in the wind, making rustling sounds.

Lu Ming still remembered that Lu Yan also had a bay window in Lu's room.

Lu Ming, who just came to Lu's house, was hostile and rejected by Lu Jianni, and often hid on the bay window of Lu Yan's room - sitting for most of the day, and fell asleep while sitting.

Lu Ming put a soft blanket on her body and leaned against the wall, looking at the distant scenery, all kinds of memories of the Lu family in the past played in her mind like a revolving lantern.

Good memories are surging in the ocean of bad memories, precious and shining.

Lu Ming remembered that when she first followed Lu Yan to Lu's house, the servants were kind to her and would accompany her to play on the lawn...

Reminiscing and reminiscing, Xu was too tired, Lu Ming's eyes began to fight, and finally closed his eyes heavily, and fell asleep.

In that small dream world, there is a stable layer of pure white, and the surroundings are white, comfortable and quiet.

Lu Ming rubbed his eyes, not far away Lu Yan stayed in the center of the world and looked at her tenderly.

Lu Yan was still wearing the floral dress that would never fade, and the light yellow cardigan that would never be worn out.

Her long, smooth hair was neatly braided into a braid, hanging obliquely over her left shoulder.

When Lu Ming saw Lu Yan, a rare smile appeared on his small face, and he jumped into Lu Yan's arms as if flying.

Mother's embrace is always warm, Lu Ming snuggles into Lu Yan's embrace, surrounded by the smell of saponins that she is all too familiar with.

Lu Ming excitedly told Lu Yan all the things he encountered these days. She danced with her and described the Xi family, and when talking about Xi Wang, there would be a proud smile on her face.

Just talking, Lu Ming sobbed.

Everything in the Xi family is good, and Xi Wang is not difficult to get along with, but she will never see her mother again...

Lu Yan listened patiently, caressing Lu Ming's head, her calloused palm was full of tenderness.

As she said when she passed away, she told Lu Ming, "Don't cry, be better, be better."

Children who are not protected by others always have to be better than other children in order to live well.

Lu Ming sobbed and nodded, holding Lu Yan tightly, asking for the warmth of his mother whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Only at this moment, she is like an ordinary child, nestling in her mother's arms like a delicate girl.

It's just that no matter how beautiful the dream is, it cannot be controlled by Lu Ming.

Lu Yan's cheek was pressed against Lu Ming's head, but Lu Ming felt that the contact with his mother became more and more illusory.

As soon as she raised her head, she saw that in Lu Yan——Dian Dian was turning into stars.

Lu Ming struggled to keep Lu Yan from staying, and stayed with him for a while.

Just - yes, a few seconds is fine.

But in the end Lu Yan still disappeared before Lu Ming's eyes.

The little girl looked at her empty arm, and the few pea-sized teardrops hanging in her eyes fell down.

pat, pat.

Tears fell into the pure white world, causing a few ripples, and the sound was soft and almost weak.

Lu Ming stood there blankly in this pure white world, looking extraordinarily lonely.

"Luming, let's go."

A cold voice came from above Lu Ming's head, and Xi Wang appeared in the new center of the world.

She was wearing the black dress at Xi Yan's funeral, and she was wearing the poppy red umbrella with a straight figure.

Aloof and cold, yet exceptionally reliable.

Lu Ming looked up at Xi Wang, tears froze in his red eyes.

She didn't have time to look any further—at the place where Lu Yan had just been, she obediently walked towards her.

The world in the dream is still boundless white, only Xi Wang is the black that Lu Ming can rely on.

Lu Ming held Xi Wang's hand just like that day, and walked side by side with her in this world.

She didn't know where Xi Wang was leading her.

She only knows that she will stay by Xi Wang's side in the future, and wherever she is, there will be her dream "home".

The next day, Lu Ming was awakened by the crazy vibration of the mobile phone.

She picked up the phone in a daze—look, 99+ unread messages popped up in the class group that had been silent since the end of the high school entrance examination.

Lu Ming's old phone couldn't help it—a series of vibrating reminders, and it stuck for a long time when it jumped into the unlocking interface.

[The results of the high school entrance examination are out!Our class is dead! ! !How many indicators does this take? 】

[The top ten miles and five of me are all from our class, awesome. @门教师老阁, is it please - Bureau! 】

【Liu Ren, Sun Feng, Chen Manman, Yu Qin, who else? 】

[There is also Luming. 】

[Lu Ming is tenth, my God, the experiment gave our school ten places, and she happened to be stuck in tenth! 】

……

Lu Ming looked at this series of news, and even felt that he was wrong.

Unspeakable joy gathered in her heart, and the corners of her lips curled into a shallow dimple.

With anticipation and nervousness, Lu Ming clicked on the school's third-year senior high school entrance examination report card posted in the group. He was indeed No.10, followed by a score of 9, which was only one point lower than No.1!

Lu Ming couldn't believe his eyes, jumped out of the group and went to the official website to check.

Today is the day when City A releases the results of the high school entrance examination, and the official website has received requests from all directions, and it is stuck again.

Lu Ming stared at the circles on the page - circles - circles, - heart disturbed and excited, unspeakably excited.

She had prepared for this senior high school entrance examination for a long time, and she was also careful and careful when answering the questions.

She knows that the senior high school entrance examination will determine which high school she goes to, and a good high school is bound to get her to a good university better than a poor high school.

The results on the official website were finally posted, and Lu Ming's English still gave her a hard time, but her extraordinary performance in mathematics actually gave her a 114, only 6 points away from a perfect score!

Lu Ming looked at her grades, and the chat records in the group kept popping up on the top of the phone. Many people were shocked that she was able to enter the top ten in the school.

She was also shocked, but expectedly shocked.

At the time when there was no external force to help her change her fate, she could only run desperately to approach.

And now she's running to a nice midpoint.

The smile on Lu Ming's face became brighter, and she suddenly wanted to share this good news with someone.

Just opened the door to go out, but hesitated.

The person she wants to share with is Xi Wang.

But is Xi Wang at home now?Even if you are at home, would you be willing to listen to yourself share this good news with her?

"Miss Xiaolu? Why are you standing at the door?" Coincidentally, Aunt Xu came up from downstairs.

She knew that Lu Ming was taken to Lu's house by Xi Wang yesterday, and she wanted her to rest more presumptuously in this house - she didn't call her early in the morning as usual.

"I..." Lu Ming twitched a bit, and still showed the results on the phone to Aunt Xu, "My senior high school entrance examination results are out."

"Yo, is it today? Oh, look at Aunt Xu's brains, she forgot. Let me see, let me see." Aunt Xu hurriedly took Lu Ming's cell phone while talking.

She didn't wear reading glasses, and it took her a long time to recognize the three numbers 584.

Then a gratified smile appeared on his face in an instant.

Aunt Xu: "It's so good, I remember that the young lady only got more than 600 points in the exam."

Hearing that his exam was not much different from Xi Wang, Lu Ming couldn't help but smiled shyly and lowered his head.

She didn't dare to compare with Xi Wang, let alone it was more than ten years ago, she didn't know the policy score at that time, how could she compare with Xi Wang.

"Did you tell Miss?" Aunt Xu asked.

But before Lu Ming could answer, she asked herself again, "Hey, are you here to find Miss? Go quickly, Miss is in her study on the third floor. What a coincidence today , Miss did not go to the company."

When Lu Ming heard Aunt Xu's words, he couldn't help feeling nervous.

It turned out that Xi Wang was at home today and did not go to the company...

"Go quickly, the lady will be happy to hear it."

Aunt Xu smiled very kindly, and Lu Ming saw that the uneasiness in his heart melted a little.

She asked timidly, "Really?"

"Of course, who doesn't like smart kids?" Aunt Xu said as she scratched the tip of Lu Ming's nose, which also wiped away her remaining anxiety.

Yes, everyone likes smart kids.

Lu Ming walked up to the third floor with her mobile phone in hand. She was also apprehensive when she came here the day before yesterday, but what she was doing now was different.

The study door, which was wide open last time, was tightly closed, and the red wooden door made a firm and crisp "dongdong" when knocked.

In less than a second, Xi Wangqing's cold voice came from inside, "Who?"

Lu Ming: "It's me, Aunt Xi."

Xi Wangwen, who was in the study, glanced at the door, stopped the pen in his hand, and said, "Come in."

Hearing the sound, Lu Ming respectfully pushed open the door.

The sun shines in from the two facing windows, filling the room brightly.

The clutter of the day before yesterday has long since disappeared. The retro cabinets are separated on both sides, and the white porcelain vases are filled with soft-colored flowers, making the whole room look extraordinarily stylish.

Lu Ming stood on the edge of the crimson carpet and looked at Xi Wang, as if it was the distance between her and her.

Xi Wang: "What's wrong?"

Lu Ming lightly licked his lower lip, and said, "Aunt Xi, my senior high school entrance examination results are down."

Xi Wang seemed to have expected it, and asked, "How many points?"

Lu Ming tried his best to restrain his emotions, and said to Xi Wang as calmly as possible: "584 points, tenth in the school."

When Xi Wang heard Lu Ming's result, he paused.

She has not been through the exam for a long time, and her sensitivity to grades has declined.But thanks to the blessing of Wang Manyan's son who also took the entrance exam this year, she thought about it for a while and remembered what Wang Manyan said in recent years that the admission score for the best experimental middle school in City A fluctuated slightly around 580.

Xi Wang watched this little girl grow tenaciously at the Lu family's place, and even grew into a good seedling with good grades.

A rare feeling of relief arose in her heart, she nodded and said, "That's right, have you decided which high school to go to?"

Lu Ming paused when he heard Xi Wang's question.

She knew that her grade had a wide range of choices, and she could even consider experimental middle school.

——The school that Xi Wang once attended.

She wanted to get closer to De Xi Wang, just like she came out of the Library Pavilion that day, and followed her along the path she walked.

Until one day she can stand beside Xi Wang and become her most reliable arm.

Lu Ming squeezed the mobile phone in his hand, and said firmly, "Aunt Xi, I want to apply for Experimental Middle School."
