moon star clear

level! "

"Oh, no wonder the girls in our class keep running upstairs..."

Jiang Hao? No. 1?

Hearing this conversation, Mu Chen was overjoyed, and moved to the left with a little more joy, wanting to confirm the good news he heard with his own eyes.

[ranking 1 Jiang Hao 672 points]

What the hell! ! ! ! !

Mu Chen struggled in the crowd to take out his mobile phone, took a photo of the ranking, looked at it again and again, fearing that it was an illusion, then said "sorry" all the way out of the crowd as fast as he could, and rushed towards the crowd. Jiang Hao.Jiang Hao was afraid that he would not be able to stand still, so he put his hand on his shoulder and asked him how he was doing in the exam.

"Me? I didn't see it, there are too many people, Jiang Hao, you are too good, 672! No.1 in the whole grade!" The corners of his happy mouth were so happy that he showed Jiang Hao the photos he took on his phone. It was too hot in the crowd, and it was too strenuous to squeeze in and out. Beads of sweat appeared on Mu Chen's forehead, glistening in the sun, like a puppy wagging its tail to bring back a Frisbee. cute.

Why are you so stupid, squeezed in with so many people, and don't know how to look for your own name first, but look for someone else's.

"Jiang Hao, did you ask for leave on purpose for the previous monthly exams, in order to scare them? A lot of people were talking about you just now, and you got more than 260 points higher than No. [-] when you took the exam for the first time. I will call you Jiang from now on. Immortal!"

"You should have improved, why don't you take a look at yours." Jiang Hao took out a tissue and subconsciously wanted to wipe his sweat, but in the end reason forced him to withdraw his hand and stuffed the tissue into Mu Chen's mouth. In the hand that wasn't holding the phone, he said lightly, "wipe off your sweat".

"I'll let it go. It's always been like that anyway. In the end, I still have to take the art test. I'm very satisfied with keeping the culture class like this."

Although Mu Chen said this, it sounded a bit unmotivated, but during this semester, Jiang Hao found that Mu Chen was very smart and cared about his studies, but he always seemed to control his study efforts to a minimum Within a fixed range, putting other energy on painting is not because he does not seek to make progress, but to seek to make progress with a choice and a method.After all, it is very difficult to fully balance the two.

Jiang Hao watched him wipe the sweat off his forehead, and walked towards the crowd without saying a word.Noisy conversations, the smell of sweat, crowded spaces, these are the things he hates the most and is good at avoiding, but this time, for the first time, he overcame his resistance to them and squeezed into the crowd. Looking for Mu Chen's name in front of the notice board, just like Mu Chen was looking for him just now.

He didn't search blindly like the others. Instead, he expected about fifty people before he squeezed in and walked in, searching up and down.

[Rank 51 Mu Chen 573 points]

Although Jiang Hao didn't take part in the previous exams because he asked for leave because of programming, he still cared about Mu Chen's ranking. He was 134th at the end of March, 108th at the end of April, and 82nd at the end of May, including this time. It's an ever-increasing trend.Jiang Hao felt very happy, and the corners of his mouth could not help but rippling.

When he came out, Mu Chen still maintained the surprised expression he showed when he squeezed into the crowd, "You you you you...how are you...you don't like it..."

"Congratulations, Mu Chen, 51st place, 573 points, you've improved a lot!" When Jiang Hao said this, the ripples at the corners of his mouth hadn't faded away, and his tone was not as calm and indifferent as usual, but with rare joy Emotions, the slightly rising tone is like the rising end of a violin piece, gentle and has the power to shake people's hearts.

"Then I'll treat you at noon today, how about celebrating your No.1 and my progress?"

So a few minutes later, Jiang Hao was dragged to the learning cafeteria by Mu Chen. After watching him look around, the two each ate a bowl of barbecue bibimbap with too much tomato sauce and not enough meat.

Mu Chen silently swallowed the sweet white rice with tomato sauce, he blamed the uncle who sold the braised fish for not coming today, and complained that the aunt who made the bibimbap was too stingy with the meat, and was still thinking about it. How to elegantly and calmly explain to Jiang Hao why this ketchup is so unpalatable.

But Jiang Hao didn't seem to mind that much, he quickly finished his share, wiped the ketchup from his mouth, then watched Mu Chen eat quietly, and just said, "It's not as good as the noodles you made. ".

"Then, then I'll make noodles for you next time... No, no, no, next time I'll buy enough ingredients to make you a whole meal!"

"Okay, I'll wait."

Depend on!Jiang Hao laughed again, why does he love to laugh so much today, am I dreaming?No, if you dream about me, the unpalatable taste of bibimbap will never be so real!

After class in the afternoon, Lao Duan first analyzed the test results this time as usual, and praised several students who had made significant progress, of course including Jiang Hao and Mu Chen, but he did not mention the specific rankings, only saying that this time Most of the students in the class have made progress, which is worthy of praise, but they should not be complacent. The students who are behind should not be discouraged.

This old man takes care of students' self-esteem better than other teachers, but his words are more clichéd than other teachers, and he can't tell whether he is enlightened or traditional.But what Mu Chen is sure of is that although Lao Duan looks fierce, he is actually a very good person, and he really cares about these students.

Early summer afternoons are always extremely difficult. The heat transmitted by the sun reaches its peak at two o'clock in the afternoon, and it can't subside much at three o'clock when the first class begins. So loosely forced the students' spirits to Zhou Gong's tea room to chat with him, indulge in it and linger.

After a drowsy Chinese class, Lao Duan looked at the distorted students under the podium, and then at the wall clock behind the classroom. There were still 2 minutes before the end of class, so he calmly chanted sutras. Yusu announced a news that made them all push Zhou Gong back to life with full blood:

This summer school will organize a research trip!

A classmate who just got up from the table excitedly said to the deskmate: "Fuck, I'm still asleep, right? Let me pinch to see if it hurts!" Just as he was about to reach out, he pinched for nothing, " Why do you pinch me, pinch yourself!"

"Hasn't the school stopped doing this for several years? We won the big prize this year?"

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,wasn’t the lucky lottery I asked for before the exam, God made up for the after-sales service here!」

Demons danced wildly in the classroom, and I was so excited that I could go on a trip tomorrow.Only monitor Zhou Yue remained calm: "Teacher, what time is it? Have the specific regulations been announced?"

Duan Xuwen knocked on the table with his textbook to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said unhurriedly: "It is tentatively scheduled for July 7th, and there are four lines in East China, South China, North China, and Southwest, corresponding to Shanghai, Guangzhou, Beijing, and Chengdu respectively. The four cities, although I don't agree with them, but which line to go to is selected in order of ranking, and not every student can go, only the top ten of each class in this exam can, and each class has two in East China and North China There are three quotas in South China and Southwest China, and arts and sciences will be taught separately by different tour guides."

"Ah - I thought I could go there - I'm destined to miss out on a group trip!" some students wailed.

Mu Chen really hit his luck this time. This is the first time he entered the top ten of his class after entering high school, and he was still No.5. But what made him most happy was not being able to go on a group trip.

"Which route do you want to choose?" | "Jiang Hao, which route do you want to choose?"

It was another unanimous voice without warning, and Mu Chen suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After thinking about it, Jiang Hao should choose Beijing. After all, there are the top universities in China, and he hopes to choose the same one as him, so he replied He wants to go to the North China Line.After finishing speaking, he whispered, this is his first study trip.

Because it was the first time, I wanted to be with Jiang Hao.

"What about you? Where do you want to go?"

"Same as you." As soon as Jiang Hao finished speaking, he seemed to be lost in thought, and said nothing.

The early summer wind rushed in from the window, stirring the young man's hair, and the sun shone through the gaps between the leaves, like a young mind that couldn't be hidden, always shining in the depths of his heart.

Like the two sides of a leaf, one side knew his own mind early and his thoughts were disturbed by the sunlight, while the other side still ignorantly clings to the other side in the shadows.

But even so, they miraculously synchronized their wishes with each other.

He wants to start a journey that belongs to each other and the future with him.

42. Extraordinary means

After Chinese class was over the next day, Duan Xuwen asked the top ten students in the final exam class to go to the office one by one to choose a research route.

Mu Chen thought about it for a long time at home last night. Apart from No.1 Jiang Hao, Zhou Yue, Chu Rumeng, and Tao Xiu were in front of him. Only Zhou Yue knew him better. She decided early on that she would take the entrance exam in Shanghai F is big, there is a high probability that they will go to the East China route, but what about Chu Rumeng and Tao Xiu?Will they choose the North China Line?There are only two quotas for the North China Line, so as long as one of them chooses the North China Line, he will have no chance to be with Jiang Hao... The situation is very unfavorable to him.

Watching Jiang Hao walk out of the classroom, Mu Chen began to observe the expressions of Chu Rumeng and Tao Xiu, but soon he felt that he was stupid. Would it be written on his face which route others wanted to choose?Hey...let it be fate.

The cicadas sing most loudly in early summer, hidden among the leaves like small speakers, playing the disturbing sound repeatedly
