MTL - Peach and Plum Do Not Speak (The Silent Cherry And Plum Blossoms)-Chapter 57
Throughout the first semester of high school, An Zhi and Xu Jiaer were in a state of competition. An Zhi slowly found his own rhythm, as well as his academic advantages. With the development of the course, Xu Jiaer was separated by An Zhi in the materialization subject, and the two almost exchanged the first place.
The rest of the experimental class became dumbfounded when they saw it too much.
Xu Jiaer still often teases Anzhi and asks her for WeChat. An Zhi was only willing to discuss her studies with her, but not WeChat.
In the second semester of the first year of high school, An Zhi did not ask Xu Jiaer whether he would choose liberal arts or science. She had a vague feeling that the next semester started, and she saw that familiar smiling face in the science experimental class again. An Zhi let out a sigh of relief.
"Hi, class leader, it seems that we will continue to be classmates in the next two and a half years."
I was divided into the experimental class of the science class, as if I had moved the real thing. The high school attached to science and technology has always been good at science. There are fifteen classes in science and four experimental classes, and the competition is very fierce. All the students who entered the science class did not dare to take it lightly.
An Zhi felt unprecedented pressure, and it was obvious that Xu Jiaer was too. Her physical and chemical performance was not very stable. In the first semester of high school, the two of them were busy fighting each other, and they didn't have time to establish friendship with other classmates. They were divided into classes as soon as the next semester started. Most of the classes were full of unfamiliar faces. be familiar. Coincidentally, the head teacher is still Teacher Pang.
An Zhiduo somewhat accepted his fate, and when Xu Jiaer asked her to use WeChat again, he gave her the number as soon as his heart softened.
In the first monthly test, both of them dropped out of the top three in the grade, one fourth and one fifth. Both children with too high self-esteem took a hit. So when Xu Jiaer proposed to study with An Zhi, An Zhi did not refuse. Frankly speaking, Xu Jiaer is a very good study partner. They are of equal strength and understand each other's shortcomings in learning.
Both of them are day students and do not need to participate in the school's evening self-study, so they agreed to study together in the classroom for an hour after school every day, do problems or recite, or organize notes together.
It is not surprising that Yan Xi did not object to this matter. An Zhi finds it strange that in her junior high school, when Yan Xi knew that she had a new friend, she was very concerned about what kind of person her new friend was. She even became friends with Yang Mengmeng. In Yang Mengmeng's words, " Love the house and Wu", but Yan Xi never mentioned Xu Jia'er, and even sometimes when he heard An Zhi speak of her, Yan Xi would inadvertently frown. It was not obvious, but An Zhidu found it.
Thinking of Yang Mengmeng, An Zhi was very lost. Her hometown is too far from Beicheng, and it is impossible to come during the holidays. I don't know why, their contact is getting less and less, and they haven't spoken for a long time.
An Zhi is thinking, does it mean that they will never meet again when they are separated, or does it mean that everything around them will change when they grow up?
This made An Zhi feel a sense of panic. She could feel that Yan Xi was becoming more and more relaxed towards her, no longer blocking her from reading books, no longer setting the time for her to look at her phone, and no longer asking her friends.
She had a dazed sense of what she was thinking. Maybe Yan Xi treats her as an adult, but does being an adult mean that Yan Xi doesn't care about her anymore?
An Zhi didn't know what to do, she even thought that everything would be fine at this stage. She dared not think about anything.
Sometimes after self-study with Xu Jiaer, before Yan Xi got off work, she would go to the TV station to look for her. When Yan Xi went to videotape, she would sit at her desk, looking curiously at the place where she was working, her small potted plants, and her sticky notes were still the corner creature sticky notes that An Zhi bought for her.
An Zhi pursed her lips and smiled, seeing the pens she used frequently. Although many people use computers for office work, Yan Xi felt that she had forgotten more and more words for a while. On her desktop there is a large sheet of white manuscript paper with the characters she practiced at will. It can be seen that it was written during the work gap, and there is no regularity. But one by one on paper, some are upright and a little scribbled.
Many memories flooded An Zhi's mind. I couldn't help but take a pen and write down the word "Xi".
"This is the meaning of Xiaolu. Come, I will teach you to write."
"Why don't you have the same name as your uncles?"
At that time, Yan Xi smiled and winked mischievously: "Because I was a surprise."
An Zhiyang smiled with a dimple.
Next to the word "Xi", the word "Tao" was written.
The two words side by side were a secret joy to her.
At this time, a paper bag was put down on the desktop. An Zhi looked up and saw that it was the man Yan Xi called "Director Liao". An Zhi had met several times, and sometimes he would invite everyone to dinner, and specially asked Yan Xi to take her with him.
"Anzhi, are you here? Oh, do you want to eat? I'll go buy you another one?"
An Zhi glanced at the paper bag and smelled the sweet red bean bread and a cup of black tea.
She swept the surroundings and found that there were people around her. She put her heart down a little and shook her head.
Director Liao smiled. He had met An Zhi several times, and he felt that the child was a little afraid of life and didn't like to talk, so he didn't force her.
As soon as he left, An Zhi stared at the food in the paper bag for a while. Then she took out the red bean bag and took a big bite.
Cheeks swelled up, and after thinking for a while, he simply twisted the black tea and drank it.
By the time Yan Xi came back, An Zhi had already eaten everything and threw it in the trash without leaving a trace. When Yan Xi led her to the garage, the director Liao ran out again and talked to Yan Xi.
It's nothing more than work, why not talk about it in the office.
After getting into the car, An Zhi held his breath, the man was too obvious. But Yan Xi didn't seem to hate him.
An Zhi held her breath until home, feeling like a puffer fish. Yan Xi didn't seem to realize it yet, and An Zhi felt that she was about to explode.
When she finally got home, she couldn't help but ask, "Is that person chasing you?"
"Ah?" Yan Xi was a little tired today, and recently he has to bring new people and record a show. Suddenly hit by this problem. She wondered how to answer.
Some time ago, she hinted to Liao Chengyu in a euphemistic way that she did not want to fall in love for the time being. Liao Chengyu seemed to understand her suggestion, and he would no longer buy food for her alone, but would buy one for everyone in the team. I no longer chat with her intentionally or unintentionally, and the news on WeChat has also decreased, and the conversation is only about some official business.
But... She found that more and more people spoke kind words about him around her, and even her colleagues agreed that Liao Chengyu was a good fit for her, and they all looked encouraging.
Yan Xi has not thought of a solution yet. Now that An Yi asked, she couldn't think of an answer for a while.
But An Zhi's eyes locked her face, as if the answer was very important to her.
"You don't need to worry about it, just study hard. How are you doing recently? Is self-study with Xu Jiaer effective?"
"It's okay." An Zhi pouted, feeling that Yan Xi was shifting the problem.
"Well...are you friends now?" Yan Xi picked up the thermos and poured a glass of water.
An Zhi thought for a while and said, "That's right." Xu Jiaer has been serious recently. To be honest, she is really not difficult to get along with, and it's hard not to like her. Although it doesn't feel as harmonious as Yang Mengmeng, she is indeed the one of the same age that she gets along with the most.
Yan Xi's movements paused, she turned her back to An Zhi, so An Zhi did not see her expression.
At the first parent-teacher meeting after the class was assigned, Yan Xi heard a sentence while chatting among several parents: "I heard that there is a child in this class who is gay? What's the name of Xu?"
Another parent said: "Yes, my child told me about Xu, Xu Jiaer is very cool, I heard that he came out in public at the first class meeting..."
"Hey... what do you think the children are thinking now? Shall we react to the head teacher?"
"What's the reaction? Now we just pretend that we don't know. Sometimes the more serious you are, the more energetic the children will be, and the more personal they will be."
"Yes, as long as the grades are good anyway, we take care of our children."
Yan Xi's heart was in constant turmoil. When she heard the news, she was confused for a long time, thinking of the picture she saw earlier, that girl named Xu Jiaer was surrounding An Zhi, would she hug him in a few seconds? Anzhi?
She doesn't have any opinion on whether she likes girls or not. Frankly speaking, it's not a big deal, it's just radishes and vegetables. But she wondered if Xu Jiaer liked An Zhi? Maybe she's over-hearted, it's just a child's slapstick?
Yan Xi turned around and looked at An Zhi.
Just as An Zhi was about to ask Yan Xi that question, her cheek was suddenly held by Yan Xi's hand, her slender knuckles curled up and gently stroked.
An Zhi's mind went blank for a moment.
Yan Xi's eyes were as black as deep pools, as if she could see the bottom of her heart, so focused and bright, but there was a little deep meaning she didn't understand.
"You are... so big, all..." Yan Xi's voice was low, hiding the unspoken words in his heart.
Unconsciously, she has grown into a beautiful and lovely girl, not only boys like her, but also girls.
An Zhi's heart was about to jump out, and all her senses were on the fingers of Yan Xi's cheeks, and she didn't hear what Yan Xi was saying at all. Her scalp was numb, and her ears were slowly getting pink.
The light at the bottom of Yan Xi's eyes flickered slightly, she put away her fingers, backed her body slightly, patted her head, and finally said after hesitation: "Learning is the main thing, you know?"
An Zhi looked at her ignorantly.
"Other things will wait for you to grow up, you know?" Yan Xi still didn't say anything after all, it's too easy for An Zhi to make friends. In her struggle, she told herself not to oppose her decision.
An Zhi always needs playmates of the same age, which she cannot give her. She is a teenager now, she can no longer control her like she was a child, she should be given full freedom.
She felt that Xu Jiaer could get along and make friends, so she should support her decision.
Yan Xi repeatedly told himself these words, and felt tired.
"Okay, I'll go back to the room first." Yan Xi pressed his forehead and walked back to the room.
An Zhi watched her back and bowed her head in annoyance, still unable to ask that question. But what can I do if I ask, this is the freedom of speech.
She grabbed her chest unconsciously, feeling very uncomfortable.
