waste heat

Chapter 99

During the days of the college entrance examination, Cheng Yan's nerves were tense all the time.

The same is true for Li Xiaoxiao. Although the teacher emphasized not to correct the answers after the exam, Cheng Yan and Li Xiaoxiao still discussed some important topics when they met in the hotel occasionally. , No one can guarantee that their answer is absolutely correct.

When he went back to the hotel to eat and read, Cheng Yan brought Chinese books, because he had to recite ancient poems and key texts, he brought books for subjects that depended on memorization, such as mathematics was not necessary.

Three people share a room in the hotel, Cheng Yan and Qu Tao, and a classmate who is not very close to each other live in a room, Qu Tao will also read for a while when he comes back, sometimes lying on Cheng Yan's bed and asking questions, Cheng Yan He will also answer.

"Is Cheng Yan here?" A female voice sounded in front of the hotel room. Cheng Yan, who was giving a topic to Qu Tao, raised his head. The boy standing not far away looked at the direction of the entrance and indicated Cheng Yan's position. The female voice said: " Then I'm in."

It's Shen Yun.

Cheng Yan was sitting cross-legged, Qu Tao was lying on his bed, and the two of them were pressing the books under their hands. After seeing this scene, Shen Yun said, "Come on for a while."

Qu Tao turned his head and stared at the book: "Why are you looking for Cheng Yan?"

Shen Yun came to the two of them, "Let's play, do you want to go? There is a tennis court behind the hotel. Yibai and Xiaoxiao both went."

Qu Tao: "At this time, are you still in the mood to play tennis?"

"Why can't it work now? I have to relax. I've been sitting in the examination room for a whole day, so why don't you hurry up and relax when you come back." Shen Yun said.

Qu Tao put away his textbook and was persuaded: "Okay, I'll go."

Cheng Yan lay down, held the Chinese document and said, "You guys go, I won't go."

Shen Yun made a fuss: "Don't, it's not fun without you, let's go, let's go together, there will be no chance in the future."

"Play after the exam," Cheng Yan said, "Didn't you all go to play your games? I was the only one."

"Cheng Yan..." Shen Yun hummed, and chanted a mantra in Cheng Yan's ear, but Cheng Yan was too pure-hearted, Shen Yun's chanting didn't work.

Qu Tao and Shen Yun went down.

There is also a male student in the hotel who wants to study. He also has good grades in the class. He used to be higher than Cheng Yan, but he was surpassed later.

"So hard, what school did you apply for?" the male classmate asked Cheng Yan while packing his clothes, holding a hanger in his hand.

"Fudan." Cheng Yan turned the page, muttering something in a low voice, he was reciting an ancient poem.

"Really brave, I don't dare to apply for that school, it's too difficult." When the male student mentioned the school he wanted to apply for, Cheng Yan listened quietly, not taking it too seriously. Forget what the male classmate said.

At around seven o'clock, Zhao Yibai came to find him.

At that time, Cheng Yan was still gnawing on his book, and moved from the bed to the table, and he saw Zhao Yibai coming in at a glance.

"Go down." Zhao Yibai said.

Cheng Yan closed the book, covered his ears, "I won't go."

Zhao Yibai leaned against Cheng Yan's desk, and waited for him to recite it. After Cheng Yan finished memorizing it, he opened it and looked at it, and then read the notes below, the author's information, etc., and pay more attention to those who are not sure whether they will be tested. Eye.

"It's fun, there are a lot of people here," Zhao Yibai said, "Play for half an hour, come back and watch."

Cheng Yan raised his head, "If I fail the exam, I will kill you."

Zhao Yibai patted his shoulder, "Okay."

Cheng Yan finally came down. Zhao Yibai said it was fun, and it was fun. Before he got close, he heard a burst of laughter. There were not only people from his school in the hotel, but also people from other schools, but they seemed to be mixed together. Everyone The guys were playing tennis and chatting with each other. The red-hot clouds floated in the sky, and the figure on the court was full of youthful vigor.

"Cheng Yan!" Shen Yun screamed, and waved at Cheng Yan who was not far away. Cheng Yan really couldn't do anything with her, so he raised his hand and waved it as a response.

Cheng Yan was pulled over by Shen Yun and joined their tennis activities.

Cheng Yan has never played tennis because there are not many opportunities, but this sport is not difficult, but it is quite exhausting. From playing alone, to two people cooperating, and then mixed doubles, this tennis experience is good and very interesting. , After playing for half an hour, Cheng Yan remembered the business, and when others were getting more and more superior, he pinched back.

During the two days of the college entrance examination, time passed quickly. On the bus back home, the old class asked everyone how they were doing. Some people said that my dad’s belt was useful these two days, and some said it was okay. The bus was lively, laugh One sound.

Now just wait for the results.

In the car, someone suggested a party, saying that after the exam was finally over, everyone had to be present at the last party, and no one objected. This party was scheduled for the night when the exam ended that day.

The teachers who had taken them were also there, but the teachers left after eating and taking pictures. Afterwards, the students had their own time. The old class stayed for a long time and asked about Cheng Yan's performance in the examination room.

"It should be stable," Cheng Yan said, "I'll know in two days."

"You are the one who has improved the most. I watched you come here," Lao Ban said, "You are very persistent. You have to persist. This kind of heart is rare."

Later, Lao Ban kept asking him how he figured it out. Cheng Yan said that someone suggested it, and he slowly figured it out. Lao Ban said that that person was indeed very powerful. Cheng Yan thought, if Lao Ban knew that person, he had brought him students, how would they feel?

After the old class left, Cheng Yan and everyone went to the place where they sang. Some people were worried about their test scores and couldn’t play well. Every family puts different pressures on them, but Cheng Yan’s pressure all came from himself.

But he believes in himself and in his performance, he is just waiting for an accurate result.

"Come here, Zhang Zihao wants to confess." Zhao Yibai called out Cheng Yan from the box.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yan was filled with joy, the current atmosphere is so good, it is very suitable for confession, everyone is immersed in sentimentality, it should be a little more possible than usual confession.

Zhang Zihao confessed his love in public. According to their plan, they sang a song first, and then turned off all the voices after Zhang Zihao finished singing the love song for Li Xiaoxiao, while he and Zhao Yibai were in charge. Send the roses prepared by Zhang Zihao to Li Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Zihao's affection for Li Xiaoxiao is well known in the class. Li Xiaoxiao herself should have some rumors, but I don't know what she thinks. After Zhang Zihao's nervous confession, Li Xiaoxiao didn't nod. Said that he didn't want to fall in love for the time being, the atmosphere was awkward for a moment.

The cheerful atmosphere came to an abrupt end, coupled with the heaviness and sadness of the graduation season, it should be enough for those who were rejected to suffer for a few days. Zhang Zihao was not the only one who was rejected that day. Most of them succeed, while a small number of them fail. Zhang Zihao is one of them.

But compared to those minds who didn't even dare to speak, he didn't regret losing.

"It's okay." Cheng Yan came to the stairs outside, where Li Xiaoxiao who had just rejected others was sitting there.

Li Xiaoxiao shook his head: "It's okay, you should ask him if he's okay."

Cheng Yan squatted down, one knee was about to touch the ground, put his hand on his knee, turned the phone and said: "Zhang Zihao, I know him, Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten, feel sad for a while, go back to battle, anyway, it's not the first time he was rejected by you .”

Li Xiaoxiao hinted at Zhang Zihao's rejection silently, but he didn't seem to accept the result and remained firm.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and forced a smile. There was nothing she couldn't say when she graduated. Everyone wanted to leave this tenderness and memory. She looked at the night with sad eyes, "I know he likes me, But I feel that he and I are not in the same way, even if we are together, we will definitely separate in the future."

The goals are different, the dreams are different, and the direction of pursuit has never been unified. Although these are not hindered, it is good for two people to have something in common. It does not necessarily refer to dreams, but refers to some attitudes towards things.

"I haven't tried it, how do I know?" Cheng Yan said, "He really likes you for more than two years."

Two years is not a long time in one's life, but in youth, the time that a person takes up for two years is different. Youth is short, and they deeply understand it.

"If it was you, I might agree," Li Xiaoxiao said. After she finished speaking, Cheng Yan's expression was a little stiff. How long can he stay together without being in the same school? I don't like long-distance relationships."

Cheng Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Li Xiaoxiao has her own ideas and is not affected by the noise from the outside world. This is a good thing for her, but for Zhang Zihao who pursues her, it is an obstacle that is difficult to break through.

"Can I ask you a question?" Cheng Yan said.

Li Xiaoxiao nodded: "Ask."

What else can't I ask?They are classmates and friends. In the future, in college, there may never be classmates or friends who have such an intimate relationship.

"Did you... really like Song Yu?" This is a scandal that has been heard in the class. I forgot who said it. It was said that Li Xiaoxiao liked Song Yu. He didn't take it to heart at the time But now that Li Xiaoxiao rejected Zhang Zihao, Cheng Yan had to think about some reasons.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't answer him right away, which made Cheng Yan a little alert. He saw Li Xiaoxiao's brows and eyes lowered. From the night sky to the peaceful asphalt road, her voice was very soft, as if she was telling a distant dream.

"Yes, in the past." Li Xiaoxiao's answer made Cheng Yan a little sluggish, he didn't know what to answer, and his identity also made any words he answered false and insincere.

Cheng Yan chose to keep silent.

"It's understandable to like Song Yu, so many people like Song Yu, and I can be one of them," Li Xiao smiled with a stiff smile, "But it's all in the past tense, and now I have you, I don't think I can do it anymore .”

It seemed that there was a lightning strike in my mind, causing all thoughts to be interrupted, and every minute and every second passed by little by little. Cheng Yan's gaze hit Li Xiaoxiao's eyes, and he was speechless for a long time.

"you……"

"Do you still want to lie to me?" Li Xiaoxiao said, "It's not something to be ashamed of."

Cheng Yan's eyes widened: "How do you know?"

When did he show his stuff?Why doesn't he know it himself?Has he ever told Li Xiaoxiao?Never.

Li Xiaoxiao took a full view of his bewilderment: "Why panic, who in our class doesn't know?"

"Our class..." Cheng Yan stammered, "Who, who knows?"

"You should know everything." Li Xiaoxiao propped his hands by his side, "Anyone with a brain can know the clues about the two of you."

Cheng Yan suddenly felt that he shouldn't be here. He was extremely embarrassed facing Li Xiaoxiao now, and he didn't know what to say next. He had just suffered a thunderbolt from the blue sky. Conceal others, to be concealed by everyone...

Cheng Yan didn't know how he left Li Xiaoxiao's side. He went back to the karaoke room. There were a few people playing online games in the lobby. Guan Di, Zhang Teng and several male classmates were there. Cheng Yan left. In the past, Li Xiaoxiao's voice echoed repeatedly in my mind.

"You know everything."

all?all of them?This group of people?Cheng Yan looked at them suspiciously.

"Zhang Teng came to catch a wave, he can catch and catch, the opposite support is not there!" Guan Di exclaimed, Zhang Teng agreed, and the group pressed their fingers quickly.

"Go straight! I have a big one!"

Standing in front of them, Cheng Yan looked at their mobile phone screens, clenched his fists boldly, and asked tentatively, "Ahem, that... I have something to tell you."

No one responded, they were all working.

Cheng Yan didn't feel embarrassed either, and said to himself: "I'm dating Song Yu..."

If I put this in the past, there must be a lot of applause, which attracted a lot of questions and shouts. Now the situation is not right. Maybe it didn’t bring surprise to everyone. They didn’t move at all and continued to operate the game in their hands. Press the button, and then let out a very perfunctory oh.

Guan Di was a little better, and said: "Understood."

Cheng Yan gritted his teeth, and sure enough, he knew that this group of guys who could act were better than him.

After finishing the game, Zhang Teng raised his head and said, "What are you doing, are you here to show off that you have a date?"

"Get lost." Cheng Yan turned and left.

Zhang Teng laughed from behind.

Later, Cheng Yan learned that the reason they knew was that he and Song Yu were too obvious, anyway, that's what they said, that the relationship between him and Song Yu was too weird, their eyes were not right, and Song Yu bought him things every three days, sent him Things come over, how can it be a good friend relationship?

Cheng Yan accepted this reason, but he still couldn't calm down. I'm afraid there will be no second chance to experience being cheated by a group.

He thought that everyone would look at him with strange eyes, be surprised and feel incredible, but no, they accepted it calmly and tolerantly, and blamed Cheng Yan for not telling them earlier.

When he first got together with Song Yu, he didn't think it was the right time to make it public, and he didn't think everyone would accept it so calmly, but now it's the graduation season, and after a year, the body and mind grow together with age. Growing up, I am no longer a teenager who will make a fuss.

A little gratified, but also a little sad.

At the end of the party, Cheng Yan and Zhao Yibai were waiting for the car together. When the car was approaching, Cheng Yan was called away by Shen Yun, and Zhao Yibai asked Shen Yun how long it would take.

"In a while, soon." Shen Yun said.

Zhao Yibai said to Cheng Yan: "Then I'll wait for you for a while."

"Okay." Cheng Yan agreed.

He followed Shen Yun to a deserted place, Shen Yun took out something from his pocket, it was a bookmark, on it was a pig's head drawn by himself, and decorated with broken diamonds, small and delicate, Shen Yun said: "Here. "

"What?" Cheng Yan glanced left and right, but couldn't conclude that it was a bookmark.

Until Shen Yun said: "Bookmark, I made it myself."

"Why did you send me this?"

"No reason, I'll just use it for you," Shen Yun said, "Anyway, you can just keep it, and usually hang it in your textbook, or in your homework book."

It can be there or not. Cheng Yan always clips the book directly with a pen. It is not so delicate. He will prepare a bookmark, but it is better than nothing. He said: "Thank you."

"What are you polite about?" Shen Yun smiled, her eyes were beautiful, but when she smiled, Cheng Yan always felt that she was not very sincere, Shen Yun didn't tell him too much, turned around and said, "Okay, let's go."

Cheng Yan didn't quite understand the situation, so he came back with a bookmark.

Zhao Yibai was still waiting for him, and asked him what he was doing, Cheng Yan showed him the bookmark, "I just gave this to me, I don't know what it means."

Zhao Yibai took the bookmark and flipped through it, then smiled, and turned around, just in time to see Shen Yun looking over before getting into the car.

Patting Cheng Yan on the shoulder, Zhao Yibai said, "Don't let Song Yu know."

Cheng Yan was in a daze for a moment, and was dazed for a while, not knowing what the relationship between the two was. The moment he stepped into the taxi, his brain suddenly cleared up, and he understood the meaning of Zhao Yi's vernacular words, but when he came back to his senses, go When looking for that figure, she had already disappeared.

The faces in the memory are gradually becoming unclear. As time goes by, there must be separation, forgetting, and new beginnings, although there are always more frustrations than joys.

Cheng Yan looked down at the pink pig's head, and seemed to be able to see the shadow of Shen Yun lying on the table drawing. He remembered that a long time ago, on the bus, the keychain she gave him seemed to have a pig's head on it. It's still hanging on the key of Cheng Yan's door.

Putting his palms together, Cheng Yan gently put the bookmark in the pocket of his coat, hiding the last touch of his youth.

A few days later, the results of the college entrance examination were released. Cheng Yan checked it a few times that day, but it seemed that he couldn't log in because there were too many checks. His parents were also helping, and the system was busy. Landed successfully.

Cheng Yan's heartbeat accelerated, and he couldn't control it himself. He touched the mouse and looked through the results of each subject bit by bit.

Unprecedented panic hit my heart, Chinese, mathematics, foreign languages, physics, chemistry...

He was the only one in the room, and the ceiling light was not turned on. A study lamp beside the computer emitted a strong white light, illuminating the clear computer screen. He took a deep breath, and his eyes fell on the corner of the comprehensive score column. When he was in the office, his heart rate slowed down, he stared at the computer screen, his head was empty for a long time, and he was quiet for a long time.

Five minutes later, he picked up his cell phone and dialed a number. Disturbances in the middle of the night are not recommended, but he didn't care about it and couldn't remember. He dialed his number, but after he answered, he didn't say a word. hair.

"Cheng Yan?" The person on the opposite side shouted anxiously.

Cheng Yan's hands were shaking, and he could hardly hold the phone. He raised his head, his head was empty, and heard him calling his name in his ear.

Cheng Yan's legs were squeezed on the chair, and the weight of his whole body was on the chair below him. His voice was unsteady, and he uttered two proud words in the 3-minute silence: "Senior."

It became quiet over there, and Cheng Yan also remained silent, but the fluctuating breath and a low laugh in the receiver had already spread far and far.

There was a lot of traffic outside the window, and the moonlight gently climbed into the window sill, wanting to take a look at the dream that made the mood fluctuate. At ten o'clock in the evening, a figure sat on a chair, and at twelve o'clock in the evening, the figure still did not move.

Cheng Yan held a shark pillow in his arms, hugged it tightly with both hands, rested his chin on top of the shark's head, and looked at the dazzling computer screen with it.

716.

It was a dream that came into reality.

It was a surprise and joy that made people sleepless all night.

It was the accumulation of countless days and nights, countless black pens, countless pens and inks and manuscript paper, a bright and prosperous dream.
