"Meng Yinan, right?"

Meng Yinan handed the physical examination form to little nurse Beta, who read his name, confirmed that it was him, and returned the form to him, then smiled and said, "Open the collar a little more... yes, that's it, Line up here first, and the doctor will call you later."

After the little nurse finished speaking, she repeated the same words to the people behind, waiting for the doctor to examine them one by one.

Today, the first and second year of senior high school had a physical examination, and Meng Yinan was among them, waiting in line.

He stood bored for a while, and when the doctor said "next", he went behind the curtain and sat in front of the doctor.

The doctor who did the gland examination was an old lady. She had to hold her glasses while reading, squinted her eyes for a while before she could pronounce Meng Yinan's name, and asked him about his age, weight and other personal information, and then asked Meng Yinan to turn around. Go and check the glands.

When Meng Yinan was in line, he unbuttoned the top two buttons of his school uniform shirt. At this time, he lowered his head slightly, pulled back the collar, and raised his hand to part his hair, revealing the clean and soft pouch on the back of his neck.

He looked at his toes, feeling a little uneasy and nervous. Then he heard the sound of the watering can. The doctor stood up and put his fingers on the side of his neck through the medical gloves. The gloves had just been sprayed with cold disinfectant, which made him shiver.

"Well, don't be nervous," the glove pressed gently on his neck for a while, and the doctor seemed to be talking to himself, "Oh, he's quite tall, he's 16 years old on the form..."

Meng Yinan waited for two seconds, then whispered, "I'm 16 and a half years old."

"It's so big that it hasn't differentiated yet. Have you checked in the hospital before?"

"I checked." Meng Yinan nodded. The doctor told him not to move, so he quickly stiffened his neck and remained still.

The doctor hummed, as if he was still checking, Meng Yinan told the story of going to the hospital for screening due to glandular fever.At that time, the diagnosis was pheromone interference. After recovery, I had several reexaminations, but there was no major problem.

At the beginning of this year, I went to the hospital to register because of the delay in differentiation, but the final result was "Let's see again".

Meng Yinan's glands seemed to be in a deep sleep. Occasionally, there would be a convulsion, which would hurt for a few minutes, and the rest of the time there would be no movement.At that time, I went to the hospital, and the doctor diagnosed that there was indeed a late-maturing child. Since the condition is stable, we should wait for a while.

Meng Yinan was still a little worried about the result, so he told the old lady who was examining his glands: "When I first checked, the doctor said that if the end of the year...well, it was the end of last year. Intervene. But when I went to check a few months ago, they said wait."

"Well," the old lady didn't seem to listen to Meng Yinan's words very much, and she said unhurriedly after a while, "If you can differentiate, you can differentiate yourself. Why are you in a hurry to intervene? The one that needs a knife is surgery. what's good?"

After finishing speaking, the doctor finished the examination. While writing the examination conclusion on Meng Yinan's physical examination form, he told him that he could get dressed.

Meng Yinan straightened his collar, buttoned it, and said hesitantly after a while, "Doctor, I still have a question."

The old lady didn't raise her head: "Say it."

Meng Yinan asked: "I did a screening before, and it was written on the form that there was a small lump in the gland. Does this matter affect the differentiation?"

The doctor took the stamp slowly, pressed it on the ink pad for a long time, and then took the front and back of the reading in front of him, and slowly stamped it on Meng Yinan's medical examination form. He didn't ask any detailed questions, and quickly answered: "It doesn't matter. Your glands have matured first, and the pheromones can't be released, forming a lump. This happens a lot. Ten or eight of them were checked in the hospital. The differentiation is fine, and it doesn't affect it."

The doctor handed him the physical examination form and looked up at him. Although his expression was not impatient, it was not too patient, as if he was asking, "If you have any questions, please ask quickly. We are still waiting in line."

This attitude made Meng Yinan feel that he asked a common sense that the whole world knew but he didn't understand. He said thank you a little embarrassedly, and left with the medical examination form.

The physical examination organized by the school basically ended in the morning.

Due to routine blood tests, blood must be drawn in the morning, and all students are not allowed to eat after ten o'clock the night before.

Meng Yinan stayed hungry until after eleven o'clock. When he walked out of the teaching building, he felt the sun was dazzling.He found a place where no one was around, took out his phone and turned up the brightness, and told Mu Zhanxi and Fu Yun respectively that they had checked and were in the corner of the playground.

There was no movement on Mu Zhanxi's side, Fu Yun replied first, sent a lot of crying faces, and told Meng Yinan that he hadn't been in line yet, there were more than a dozen people in front, and told Meng Yinan not to wait for him, but to go eat first.

He also asked Meng Yinan if the test results were good, and did he say why he wasn't differentiated yet.

Meng Yinan replied that he was fine, and the doctor said it was normal, and the comfort delivery should end soon, and bring him some snacks later.

Meng Yinan only saw Mu Zhanxi's reply after exiting from the delivery window.

Mu Zhanxi said that he was still talking, and he didn't know how he used his mobile phone under the teacher's nose. He said he could come out in 10 minutes at most.

Meng Yinan replied "OK" and said, "I'm downstairs, next to the tree".

The temperature under the shade of the tree was lower. Meng Yinan felt cool when he stepped in, but it wasn't cold. The skin on his arms felt cool and smooth to the touch. He liked the temperature quite a bit.

He was standing not far from the door of the building, and everyone who came in and out could see him, so he didn't take out his phone.

Meng Yinan has never been differentiated, and is divided into more Omega classes, which are in different teaching buildings from Mu Zhanxi's Alpha class.

Every time Meng Yinan came to look for him, he had to walk half of the playground.

But speaking of it, Meng Yinan has been in the first year of high school for so long, and half of the second semester is over, so the number of times he actually met Mu Zhanxi in school was not too many.

The courses of senior one and senior three do not overlap. Alpha seldom has contact with Omega classes with a large number of people. The only chance to meet is on every odd-numbered Wednesday.Because only the first class in the afternoon of odd-numbered weeks needs to go to the experimental classroom, and the experimental classroom is on the floor downstairs of Mu Zhanxi's class.

In Meng Yinan's memory, every Wednesday at the end of the lunch break, the sun was dazzling.

He got up from the table listening to the ringing of the bell, and at first he felt a little chaotic and drowsy, staring blankly at the drawn curtains rising and falling with the wind from the window, like silent ocean waves.

The curtains are raised, and the sun will be slightly hot on the arms.

After the lunch break, someone in the class called this section to go to the experimental classroom, urging everyone to take their textbooks and hurry over. Meng Yinan became more conscious and walked behind the students, and then moved to the classroom where the class was going to be held.

When they got downstairs, it seemed that there were always people playing ball on the playground, making noisy but energetic sounds, and the harsh, slightly scalding sun became a fixed scene in memory.

Then Meng Yinan would hold the book and casually read it on the playground, looking for the person he wanted to see.

Every time he came to class here, Mu Zhanxi would definitely go downstairs after lunch break and wait for him somewhere in the playground.

Sometimes Meng Yinan found him, sometimes Meng Yinan couldn't find him.

When he couldn't find it, Meng Yinan would be very disappointed.

Because from the playground to the classroom, there are only three floors up, and Mu Zhanxi will not meet until the next week if he doesn't come. Although he returns to the same home every day, the feeling of meeting in school is always different.

But Meng Yinan basically didn't wait for Mu Zhanxi.

As soon as he lowered his head in disappointment, there might be a bottle of iced drink sticking to his cheek from behind. If Meng Yinan turned his head in surprise, he would see Mu Zhanxi with one hand in his pocket and the other holding Drinks stood behind him.

Mu Zhanxi would ask him if he wanted to drink, but Meng Yinan said yes, and Mu Zhanxi would not give him the drink, but told him that the iced ones were very cold, and Meng Yinan could not drink such iced things. If you want it, then give it to him after this class.

They are very conspicuous standing on the playground, and sometimes students passing by will see them.

Meng Yinan would say that he was going to class, and then go ahead first.

Mu Zhanxi would follow behind, as if he didn't know him, but it was impossible not to know him, walking back and forth, walking not far from him.

Meng Yinan would never say no to Mu Zhanxi's drinks, he liked whatever he bought.

Mu Zhanxi always stood at the end of the corridor on the third floor waiting for him to finish class, and gave him drinks that were no longer cold after a class.

This seems to be very troublesome, and Meng Yinan's class break is very short, and it is even more nervous to delay the class for a few minutes from one building to another.At times like this, Mu Zhanxi had very little communication with Meng Yinan, they just had a drink and had no further contact.

But Mu Zhanxi didn't know if he was not afraid of trouble, would always go, and followed Meng Yinan downstairs as if nothing had happened, and sent him to the playground before leaving.

When buying drinks in small shops, you will only buy very cold drinks that cannot be drunk directly in the south of Mumbai, and ignore the normal temperature drinks that are well stocked.

……

Sometimes Meng Yinan feels that time is slow, and sometimes time flies.

His freshman year of senior high school was rich and fulfilling, but occasionally he felt uncomfortable. When the class was boring, he thought about when the class would end, and after the day was over, he wondered why there would be so many classes tomorrow... But looking back now, it seems that he only passed so much for a moment.

Well, it's the same for Mu Zhanxi.

When I went out this morning, Mu Zhanxi said that the teacher would organize a conversation about where he would go after graduation. Meng Yinan was a little confused at first, and was stimulated by the word "graduation".

After waiting for a while, he realized that he had known Mu Zhanxi for a long time and always followed behind his brother, but it might not be long before Mu Zhanxi would not be with him in school.

This realization made Meng Yinan feel sad.

I've been suffering since morning.

Meng Yinan felt that standing under the shade of the tree, he felt a little bit lost and lonely.

What a smart kid he is, he has been following Mu Zhanxi for a year, and he knew the reasons for the big and small ideas of "can become the gender that my brother likes" and "Omega can also" sprouted at the beginning .

Meng Yinan likes to think too much, so he will worry about gains and losses.Sometimes I avoid it, sometimes I ignore it, but I already know it very well in my heart.

A gust of wind blew, and his cheeks were itchy. He scratched it lightly, and pinned a strand of hair blown by the wind behind his ear.

He had been in a daze for about 10 minutes, and there were some tacit understandings. Meng Yinan felt that it was almost time and turned his head to look, only to see Mu Zhanxi coming out of the teaching building.

For some unknown reason, Mu Zhanxi was not in a good mood today, with a blank expression and a little bit of discomfort.

But Meng Yinan still smiled at him.

He also likes Mu Zhanxi at this time.
