Chapter 81

Third class of evening self-study.

The head teacher Wang Qi was spitting on the podium, constantly emphasizing the importance of tomorrow's first college entrance mock exam, asking everyone to be serious, cautious, and attach importance to it.

Halfway through, Song Yu suddenly handed him a note.

The content of the note was not much, just three words: Congratulations!

These words were headless and tailless, but Li Heng understood them instantly. His beautiful deskmate was congratulating his novel "Living" for its great success.

Li Heng was somewhat happy. After all, it was rare for this girl to take the initiative once, so he picked up his pen and replied: Thank you.

Taking the note, Song Yu pondered for two seconds and asked: How is Zijin? Is she okay?

Li Heng wrote: It's been a week since I talked to her on the phone, why did you only think to ask now?

Song Yu replied: Seeing you immersed in joy these past few days, I didn't want to disturb you.

Some things were known in the heart. Li Heng didn't hide it and wrote: I told her about the writing, and the Chen family probably knows too. Her situation should improve.

Song Yu was sincerely happy for her best friend. After hesitating for a while, she put pen to paper and replied: Now that the bitterness has ended and the sweetness has begun, and Zijin has a sincere heart for you, you must cherish her well.

Alright, at this point, Li Heng understood everything.

How could he not understand?

This girl was clearly taking the opportunity to reject him, the purpose being to kill his certain intentions toward her in advance.

After reading it repeatedly twice, he sighed, but didn't feel too much disappointment.

If he could chase her like this, she wouldn't be Song Yu.

You know, in his previous life, she rejected his marriage proposal twice. Although she rejected him while shedding tears and hugged him for a long time in self-reproach, her heart was as firm as a rock, wasn't it?

Without replying, he crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into his desk, then opened his Chinese textbook and silently reviewed it.

Seeing that he didn't show any obvious abnormal emotions, Song Yu also quietly let out a sigh of relief, then took out a math test paper and started brushing questions.

Just after the third evening class, Zhang Zhiyong rushed from the back of the classroom to him with great interest:

"Old Heng! You said you'd cover this month's living expenses, does it still count?"

Li Heng looked up: "You used up so much money already?"

Zhang Zhiyong said with a look of bad luck: "Don't mention it. I climbed the wall with Zou Aiming this afternoon to go out and buy braised pork and spicy sea flowers. On the way back, the money was stolen.

Damn his grandpa! My pants have such a big hole, the pants are useless now."

The simple-minded one gestured and gestured, extremely depressed.

Li Heng closed his book and said readily: "Whatever you like, just say it, I'll go pay."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhiyong's face instantly turned from cloudy to sunny. He pulled Li Heng and Liu Li to the small shop with a thief's eyes:

"The small shop got a batch of ice cream today. I haven't eaten it for almost half a year, and I've been craving it to death."

Liu Li said listlessly: "Zhang Zhiyong, you 250, eating ice cream in this weather, what are you thinking? Won't you get diarrhea if you eat it?"

Zhang Zhiyong was unhappy: "If you call me that again, I'll tear your mouth apart. If you're afraid, don't eat. I'll have one in each hand, it'll be beautiful."

Liu Li was just a mouth player. Seeing Li Heng and Zhang Zhiyong eating ice cream in their left hands and spicy sea flowers and braised pork in their right, he couldn't hold back in the end. The three of them gathered around a stone table at the rockery, slurping and eating heartily.

Two bites of braised pork and a big mouthful of spicy sea flowers down his throat, Li Heng felt great, "It's a pity there's no wine. It would be perfect if there were wine."

"Grass! You dare to drink in school? Why have you become worse than me now? First Xiao Han, then Song Yu, damn! I almost don't recognize you anymore." Zhang Zhiyong had been reading the newspapers he had read every day recently. Every time he finished reading, he was both happy and melancholy.

My brother has changed, become a big writer, and I am no longer on the same path as my brother.

The gap is too big, and there's no joy in being simple-minded anymore. Finally, he had no choice but to have the long-lost thought of working hard, picking up books day and night like everyone else in the class.

According to Zhang Zhiyong: We don't aim for Tsinghua or Peking University, we don't aim for Fudan or Renmin University, we just need to be able to study in the same city as my brother.

This idiot wasn't really unable to leave Li Heng, but they had been laughing and laughing together since they were young. If they were suddenly separated, he would feel very lonely.

Stuffing 5 pieces of braised pork into his mouth like a robbery, Liu Li puffed out his cheeks and sighed: "Sigh, I didn't solve a single math problem tonight."

Li Heng asked with concern: "What's going on? Are you being serious about the competition questions?"

Liu Li shook his head: "No, isn't graduation coming soon? Thinking that I won't be able to see Chen Lijun in the future, my heart aches, my head is buzzing, and I spent the whole night stealing glances at her back, and couldn't calculate a single problem."

Li Heng said: "You work hard, you can get into the same school as her."

Liu Li stared at the braised pork in the bag for a long time, then suddenly grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth, "Hey, that's also blind work, no effect!

I look like a walnut, Chen Lijun is like this braised pork, mouth-watering, many people are staring at it, even if we go to the same school, it won't get into my bowl."

Who did Chen Lijun marry in the end? Where did she marry? Li Heng searched his memory, but didn't think of anything.

At this time, Zhang Zhiyong shook his head and said: "Old Liu, do you know what I admire you for most?"

Liu Li looked up: "Oh, is there something you admire me for?"

Zhang Zhiyong smiled and said: "You clearly look very ugly, your face is like a cone, but you have self-knowledge, heh heh, I admire you for this point."

Liu Li was furious: "It sounds like you're better than me, thief-eyed, extremely wretched."

Although the simple-minded one had a cheap mouth, he was generous. He bought at least three jin of braised pork. The three of them ate for a long time, and didn't touch back to the dormitory until the lights were about to go out.

It wasn't that they didn't eat in the dormitory, but meat was precious in this day and age, and braised pork was even more precious. With so many people in the dormitory, how could it be enough?

When the three of them finished washing and entered the dormitory, they happened to run into Liu Yejiang holding an English book and a flashlight, heading toward the public toilet.

Liu Li's mood wasn't beautiful: "Look at him, he's off to fight hard again. I wasted a whole night tonight, sigh, the beauty has misled me!"

Even though they didn't like this idiot Liu Yejiang, they had to admit that the other party was like a cockroach that couldn't be killed, getting braver with every setback, making everyone look at him with admiration.

And the consequence of looking at him with admiration was that everyone had a sense of crisis.

Throughout the night, Li Tuanming, Zou Aiming, and monitor Liu Hui all had flashlights in their hands, huddled in their quilts and flipping through books.

Climbing onto the bed, Liu Li said with red eyes: "I'll go buy a flashlight tomorrow."

Seeing that Li Heng didn't speak, lying there sleeping comfortably, Liu Li couldn't help but turn over and ask:

"Li Heng, you're too calm, aren't you? Aren't you worried at all that they'll surpass you? They're all taking you as their goal."

Li Heng was too lazy to open his eyes: "The human brain needs rest. Staying up late every day like this will only make you exhausted, and in the end, it will definitely be a loss that outweighs the gain.

Look at Xiao Feng, Song Yu, Mai Sui, and then look at Yang Yingwen, Xiao Jun, and Luo Zhijie. They rest when they should, and never study dead books."

Liu Li tilted his head and thought: "That makes a lot of sense, I'll go buy a flashlight tomorrow, do you want one?"

Li Heng grabbed the quilt and pulled it up, covering his head. He didn't want to bother with this idiot anymore, time to sleep.

Stomach ache!

In the middle of the night, Li Heng only heard his stomach rumble, and he couldn't hold it anymore.

When he brought paper and ran into the toilet, he found that he wasn't alone. It turned out that Zhang Zhiyong, Liu Li, Zou Aiming, and Liu Hui were all squatting in the pits.

"Ha! Old Heng is here, I knew he ate braised pork too, he definitely couldn't escape." Zou Aiming, who was on the outermost side, saw him run in in a puff of smoke and laughed loudly.

Finding an empty spot to squat down, Li Heng asked: "What's going on? Is it that the braised pork had a problem?"

Liu Hui in the next pit said: "Not clear yet, but it should be. We exchanged summaries just now, among the things we ate yesterday, only the braised pork and spicy sea flowers overlapped."

Li Tuanming was a bit exhausted, "You guys are still okay, only the first palace visit, I've already been three times."

Zou Aiming raised his hand: "Second palace visit, soon to see the Empress."

Zhang Zhiyong reported the number, "I'm also on the second palace visit, just finished rolling on the bed with the Imperial Concubine."

These b...

Li Heng was speechless. Does it mean that the number of times having diarrhea can also be something to be proud of?

"If this continues, what about tomorrow's mock exam?" Liu Li was incomparably worried.

Once these words were spoken, the toilet was instantly silent. Finally, Zou Aiming broke the deadlock, "I'll ask for leave tomorrow, not taking it."

Liu Hui said: "If you dare to ask for leave, the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old will blow your dog head off."

Zou Aiming protested, "Going in to take the exam like this is also shameful. It will be cheaper for that dog bastard Liu Yejiang, might as well not take it."

Li Heng looked around, "Then where did Liu Yejiang go? Isn't it said he's fighting hard in the toilet?"

Li Tuanming chimed in: "I know, I know, he was smoked away by my series of farts, maybe he went to the third-floor toilet."

"Your farts are really amazing."

"Hahaha..."

This hip-hop scene, where does it look like having diarrhea? It looks like a circus.

In the end, these guys felt that having a top student like Li Heng suffering with them made them feel less worried and comforted.

After a night of stomach ache, early the next morning, as soon as the boys' dormitory gate opened, several people ran wildly toward the infirmary with a tacit understanding.

The doctor hadn't woken up yet at this time, but they couldn't hold it anymore, so they patted the door with a bang, and really called the doctor out of her dream.

The doctor was a young woman. When the door was pulled in, she yawned and said: "So urgent, where are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Li Heng asked first: "Diarrhea, do you have oxytetracycline?"

The doctor asked: "How many times?"

Li Heng said: "I've been 3 times."

"I've been 6 times."

"I've been 5 times."

"I've been 3 times too."

Hearing them talking all at once, after the doctor clarified the reason for the stomach ache, she pointed to a stool, "It's so severe, 5 or 6 times might mean dehydration, best to get an IV drip.

Li Heng, you take the medicine first to see the situation. Aren't you taking an exam today?"

Zou Aiming asked: "Eh, doctor, do you know Li Heng?"

The doctor joked: "I know him. Girls discuss him from time to time when they are getting injections here. I got curious after hearing it too much.

A few days ago, I specifically went to the glory wall to see his photo. He is indeed worthy of the four words 'jade tree facing the wind' in the girls' mouths."

Li Heng: "..."

Damn, isn't this creating hatred for himself? I really want to ask, did you see Song Yu's photo?

The effect of oxytetracycline wasn't that fast. The Chinese exam was at 8:00 AM. Li Heng only gritted his teeth and persisted for 85 minutes before he couldn't hold on anymore, and ran out of the exam room in a puff of smoke.

The invigilator knew him and ran to the corridor to shout: "Li Heng, school rules don't allow handing in the paper early, come back!"

Li Heng had no intention of birding him, running madly to the toilet against time.

Another female teacher behind the exam room looked at the time, "Only 80 minutes, how much did he do?"

The male invigilator flipped through Li Heng's test paper: "Some surprises, you are a Chinese teacher, come take a look."

As he spoke, the male teacher collected the test paper onto the podium.

The female teacher walked up and lowered her head to browse, not speaking for a while.

The male teacher said: "We must report this situation to the school. He is a seedling for Tsinghua and Peking University. The mock exam is so important, and it relates to filling out the volunteer form before the exam, yet he's treating it like child's play."

The female teacher finished reading the last few big questions carefully, but said: "Don't be in a hurry, let's wait and see the next math exam before deciding."

Seeing this scene just now, Song Yu was a bit stunned, feeling a bit self-blaming in her heart: Li Heng giving up halfway like this, could it be related to the note she gave him last night?

The top student of the first sequence gave up halfway. The crowd in the first exam room just looked up and continued to answer the questions, without much waves.

Around 10:30, the math exam was held. Li Heng took two more oxytetracycline pills before entering the room.

Passing by Song Yu, seeing her worried look, Li Heng smiled at her, and then came to his seat.

Mai Sui in the front row turned around and asked: "Li Heng, are you okay?"

Li Heng shook his head, "Don't worry about me, I'm fine."

Sun Manning at No. 17 wanted to come over, but was stopped by a look from the invigilator.

The male invigilator shouted at him, "Li Heng, I'll state it again, the mock exam is very important and has a great reference value for filling out the volunteer form for the college entrance exam.

I hope you take it seriously. If you hand in the paper early again, we can only invite your head teacher and school leaders."

Li Heng wanted to say, Teacher, I have diarrhea. But after thinking about it, forget it, diarrhea isn't a glorious thing. I'll explain the situation when the head teacher asks.

I'm just afraid that after knowing the reason for the diarrhea, the simple-minded one who climbed the wall and Zou Aiming will be punished, so I'll try not to say it if I can, at least not from my own mouth.

Math was his strong suit, and he finished it in less than 80 minutes. But what he feared came, and just after checking it roughly once, his stomach started acting up again.

No way, Li Heng stood up quickly, and without waiting for the teacher to react, ran out of the classroom again.

"Li Heng! Li Heng, what are you doing? Come back!"

The invigilator shouted like this, but when he looked out the door, where was Li Heng in the corridor? Not even a ghost shadow was seen.

Although it was still loose, it was much better, and it wasn't the watery stool from before. After coming out of the toilet, Li Heng specifically went to the infirmary.

"Are you sure it's not all water?" the doctor asked.

"Mm."

"That's not bad, the medicine is working. Take the medicine once more after you finish lunch, and it should be normal in the afternoon." The doctor judged based on experience.

Hearing this, Li Heng felt relieved.

The doctor asked curiously: "There are 3 people in your class who didn't take the exam. How did you do in the morning?"

Li Heng estimated and said: "Should be pretty good."

This wasn't him bragging. Although time was tight, he had always been fast at doing questions, faster than the average person by two or three big questions.

Just as the doctor said, after finishing lunch, he could clearly feel his physical condition returning to normal, without that sense of exhaustion.

When taking the politics exam in the afternoon, the school vice-principal came, the dean of students came, and the head teacher Wang Qi also came with a livid face.

The school vice-principal didn't ask right from wrong, walked into the exam room, grabbed Li Heng by the ear, and went to the corridor outside, opening straight to the point:

"Li Heng, why did you hand in the paper early?"

Li Heng said: "Teacher, I have diarrhea."

Several leaders looked at each other. Wang Qi was most concerned about the grades: "I heard you finished the math, how much do you estimate you can get?"

Li Heng said conservatively: "Above 115."

Several leaders looked at each other again. The dean of students asked: "What about Chinese? Don't let my Chinese fail, or I won't be happy."

Li Heng grinned, showing his neat teeth, and said: "Consider it normal performance."

Several people had done a preliminary investigation before coming, knowing that he had finished it. Thinking that it wouldn't affect his performance in the following subjects, they didn't interrogate him further.

But Wang Qi didn't leave all afternoon, guarding him the whole time.

Li Heng took the politics exam, so he guarded politics; took the history exam, so he guarded history, until the exam was over.

When all the subjects were finished today, Wang Qi said to him, "Don't be happy too early. The school will prioritize looking at the papers from the first exam room tonight.

The scores will be out by eight or nine o'clock. If you didn't do well, I don't care about your diarrhea or anything, I'll still knock your head off."

Around 8:00 PM, Liu Yejiang's figure appeared in the Academic Affairs Office, asking the math teacher, Teacher Pan, "Teacher, are the math scores out yet?"

Teacher Pan smiled and said, "They're out, you did pretty well, you got 103 points."

Liu Yejiang asked tightly: "What about Li Heng?"

Teacher Pan said: "Him? Don't ask, just focus on finishing the English and Geography exams tomorrow."

Liu Yejiang was unwilling to give up. Since the scholarship exam, he, who hadn't received the scholarship, had been working hard, just wanting to wash away the shame. How could he just let it go like this:

"Teacher, tell me, how much did he get? Did he finish the questions in 80 minutes? Did he get over 90?"

Unable to listen anymore, another math teacher in the math teaching and research group spoke up:

"Liu Yejiang, this is the math paper for your first exam room, flip through it yourself."

Liu Yejiang hurriedly took the paper, quickly flipped to the fifth test paper, and after confirming that the handwriting was Li Heng's, he took a look at the top of the paper!

It would have been better if he hadn't looked. At this look, he felt the sky spinning and the earth turning! He almost had a heart attack!

How unfair is heaven! How unfair!

Why can that bastard Li Heng get a full score in 80 minutes, while I, Liu Yejiang, only got 103 points after working so hard!

The great cause was not yet achieved, his heart was like dead ashes. Liu Yejiang didn't know how he left the Academic Affairs Office, wandering aimlessly on the campus like a lonely ghost.

Seeing this appearance, Teacher Pan said to the math teacher just now: "You shouldn't have given him the paper. His spirit is leaked, he probably won't do well tomorrow."

That math teacher was unconcerned, "You can only eat as much as you can handle. If you don't even have this bit of psychological quality, and still want to compare with others all day, isn't that looking for suffering?"

The English and Geography exams the next day went very smoothly. Teacher Wang Qi was still guarding him like yesterday, but didn't mention the scores, and no longer mentioned knocking his head off.

After the exam, Teacher Wang Qi smiled and patted him on the shoulder, asking: "I saw you finished very quickly and were playing today, is it okay?"

"Okay." Li Heng replied.

Teacher Wang Qi nodded, praised "Not bad!", and left.

Old rules, once the end of the month exam is over, the school will have a 3-day holiday, the purpose being to let everyone relax, and also to leave time for students from other places to go home.

Mai Sui was from Shaodong County. As soon as the exam was over, she was picked up by her parents in a van.

Liu Li and Chen Lijun also left by bus.

Three people left the small circle at once, leaving only Li Heng, Zhang Zhiyong, Song Yu, and Sun Manning in the school.

Song Yu doesn't need to be talked about, she's close to home, walking takes less than 10 minutes.

Sun Manning doesn't even need to be mentioned, damn, she lives in the school.

And Shaoshi is too far from Qian Town, the road is bad these days, and there is only one direct bus at 11:00 AM every day. They can't go back now, they can only wait until tomorrow.

After seeing everyone off at the school gate, Song Yu thought for a while and said to Li Heng: "Do you have time?"

Li Heng asked back: "At this time, aren't you going home?"

Song Yu said: "I don't know how to do the last big math question, teach me."

Li Heng said okay.

Seeing Zhang Zhiyong following the two without any sense of awareness, Sun Manning behind him pulled him, "Zhang Zhiyong, are you good at billiards?"

Zhang Zhiyong said arrogantly: "Do you even need to ask?"

"Accompany me for two rounds."

"I don't play with women."

"Accompany me for two rounds!!!"

"Play, play, play! Mom's, don't be so fierce!"

Sun Manning didn't like hearing dirty words and poked him directly with a billiard cue.

Zhang Zhiyong took a solid hit, didn't dare to let out a fart, and played along with a dull head.

Li Heng and Song Yu didn't enter the school, but walked slowly along the Zi River bank.

At first, neither of them spoke, walking upstream against the river wind. It wasn't until they were far away from the school gate and there was no one around that Song Yu spoke quietly,

"Li Heng, what is the answer to the last math question?"

Li Heng replied: "The first question is greater than or equal to 3, the second question is the square root of 2."

Then he asked: "What about you, what is the answer? Does it match mine?"

Upon hearing this, Song Yu stopped, turned around, and looked at his eyes quietly, not telling him what the answer was.

After looking at each other for a moment, Li Heng suddenly realized, "Looking for me today, isn't it because of math, but because you're worried that I'll give up on myself?"

Being exposed by him, Song Yu didn't show any embarrassment, but instead brushed the green silk blown by the wind behind her ear with her right hand.

She said softly: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

"I regret it. I should have given up on myself in this exam, let's see what you do? Let's see if you're anxious?" Li Heng said deliberately.

Song Yu smiled knowingly and didn't reply.

There is a beautiful person, like clear and bright, with a beautiful smile, and a gentle heart. Although he had seen her countless times in his previous life, at this moment, he was still amazed by Song Yu when she was young.

Seeing him gazing at her with affection, Song Yu looked away unnaturally, continued to walk forward, and only spoke again after a long time:

"Why is it like this?"

Li Heng replied: "I don't know either."

She asked without a head or tail.

Li Heng also answered without a head or tail, but both knew the other understood.

After a while, Song Yu asked: "It's almost time to fill out the volunteer form, where do you plan to fill it?"

This question really stumped him.

He wanted to go to Beijing because Chen Zijin was there.

He wanted to go to the south because the vents of the era were all in the south.

Of course, these were not all the factors.

After waiting for a long time, Song Yu, who didn't wait for a reply, stood with her hands on the railing, looking at the misty river surface and said: "Don't you want to go to Beijing to find Zijin?"

Li Heng didn't answer the question, "What about you, where do you plan to go?"

Song Yu said calmly: "For the first choice, I want to fill in Peking University."

Just as expected, Li Heng followed up and said: "Then I'll fill in Peking University too."

Song Yu choked and had nothing to say, not knowing how to continue.

Just now he hesitated and didn't speak, now she wants to apply for Peking University, and he immediately follows to apply for Peking University. Isn't this the heart of Sima Zhao that everyone knows?

At this point in the chat, time seemed to stand still, and the world seemed to have pressed the pause button for the two.

For a while, neither of them spoke again, just standing side by side, watching the river water flow quietly.

Actually, this is also quite beautiful. Li Heng enjoyed this quiet time with her, as if his soul had been baptized.

Unfortunately, heaven didn't cooperate, and after a sudden gust of wind, it started to rain heavily.

Seeing this, Li Heng hurriedly took off his coat, spread it over his head, and covered her from the rain.

Song Yu just looked up and smiled, paused, then pulled her right hand out of her school bag without a trace. After hesitating, she walked closer and ran with him toward the Shaoshi Teachers' College.

"Are Uncle and Aunt at home?" he asked.

"I don't know, I haven't been back for a week."

"Then I'll send you downstairs and leave." he said so.

Maybe it was because of the heavy rain, or maybe it was because someone was shameless to a certain extent just now, at this moment, Song Yu didn't have the caution she usually had when facing him, and smiled and said okay.

Even if heaven didn't cooperate, the road was short, and they arrived outside the Song family courtyard in a few minutes. They couldn't stay together for a while longer even if they wanted to.

Under the cherry tree, Song Yu watched the heavy rain for a while, looked at him close at hand, and finally opened her school bag, took out an umbrella, and handed it to him.

Li Heng was confused, and then felt embarrassed. Damn, he didn't expect the other party to have an umbrella, so he took it upon himself to use his clothes.

Song Yu seemed to see his thoughts and embarrassment, smiled, stuffed the umbrella into his hand, said "Return it to me tomorrow," and entered the courtyard without looking back.

"Hey, don't say thank you?"

Song Yu's smile bloomed again, she waved her right hand at him, and this time she really went into the house.
