The cherry blossoms were blooming, and when the wind blew, they fell everywhere. I was walking on campus with my book in my arms, and I remembered inexplicably that on the day of Grandpa Jun’s birthday party, Sumino Hitomi chased me out and asked me if I knew where the kitchen was. At that time, it happened to be
There were cherry blossoms falling on his dark hair, adding a touch of softness.
It seems that I have never really gotten to know Sumino Hitomi, his character, and his heart. But even so, after not seeing him for a while, I still think of him from time to time.
It’s the third week since school started, and his phone calls are getting less and less. He used to say that he would be busy doing rehabilitation and practicing walking with prosthetic limbs every day, which would be very busy. He also said that my study pressure is increasing and it will take more time.
Spend some time on your homework, think about him occasionally, and save the phone calls if you can. Finally, he said half-jokingly: "Jun Buyu, why don't you just go to the hospital."
Shengya Middle School has student apartments. Some students whose parents are busy at home will live in the apartments. Naturally, the school will also assign a personal housekeeper to each student.
Thinking back to Grandpa Jun’s previous advice, I also felt that living on campus seemed to prevent a lot of things from happening. The most important thing was that I didn’t have to watch Jun Changqian suffer. I mentioned this matter to Jun Changqian on the pretext that the pressure of study was gradually increasing.
Jun Changqian agreed without asking any further questions.
My apartment building is in the southeast direction of the school, about ten minutes' walk. From the apartment building to the classroom, this cherry blossom path is a must-pass and the closest road.
This road in the city is usually visited by many lovers, but today was unusual. There was no one on the whole road. I subconsciously raised my wrist to look at my watch, worried that I had read the wrong time. My classmates had all gone to class, and on the Cherry Blossom Road
There is no one.
But when he confirmed the time and put down his left hand and raised his head, he saw a thin figure standing at the end of the cherry blossom path. Yes, he was standing!
Compared to a few years ago, he is a bit thinner. His black hair is still black and shiny, with flower petals falling on it. The sun is shining from behind him, and he is covered in golden light. His face is hidden in the shadows, like a dream.
"Don't you recognize me?" His clear voice, neither loud nor quiet, came from over there.
I stood in a daze, and he raised his wrist to look at his watch and said, "I'll be late if I stay dazed any longer."
I came to my senses and ran towards him. It is undeniable that after being around this person for more than a year, I have already let down my guard and become a habit.
"I didn't even say a word when I came back." I complained to him.
Sen Yetong raised her thin lips: "I want to give you a surprise!"
I curled my lips: "I don't think it's that surprising."
"Then you are still running over here?" There was a smile in his eyes. Originally I thought it would be very difficult for him to face such a reality, but now he seems much happier.
This sentence successfully choked me, and Sen Yetong turned around and took a step forward.
I secretly paid attention to him, but I saw that he walked no differently than a normal person. How much time and energy does it take to walk with a prosthetic limb and recover like a normal person like now?
I heard that the first time you wear a prosthesis, it will be very painful, but now, he still has a smile on his face, and occasionally glances at me and says: "Jun Buyu, you have lost a lot of weight, do you miss me?"
Although I agreed to date, I couldn't bear to listen to such blatant and naked words, so I turned my head and said, "It's because I'm under too much pressure to study! By the way, I've written down all the notes for you, eh, take them."
"
Sum Yetong took it, turned it over, and asked casually: "You still say you don't miss me? What's the point of always carrying the notes you copied for me?"
I glanced at him: "I miss you, do you have to point it out?"
Only I know that I miss him only occasionally. Most of the time, I wonder what Jun Changqian was doing at that time. I just suppressed Jun Changqian rationally and forced myself to think about him. He was like
It was a medicine that made me forget Jun Changqian. Although the medicine has little effect, it is better than nothing.
Across the entire cherry blossom path, as they turned towards the teaching building, Lu Zi and some of his former classmates were waiting. They all cheered to welcome him back. Everyone walked to the classroom together, slowing down their steps in a tacit understanding.
If you couldn't tell anything was wrong with him when walking on level ground, then it was obvious when you went upstairs.
He had to stand still with his right foot, slowly lift his left foot up a step, and then stand up with his right foot. Our classroom is on the second floor, with only twenty steps, and he walked for nearly ten minutes.
We all walked slowly with him. Lu Zi and a few of his former classmates were proposing to hold a party for him in the evening to celebrate his return to school. However, Sumino Hitomi panted slightly and said with a smile: "Today? I just want to have a party."
I want to spend time with my girlfriend."
He hugged me, winked at me, and smiled brightly.
Lu Zi smiled and said to him: "I thought Master Cen would be different from others, but I didn't expect that people who fall in love are all the same, focusing on sex over friends!"
Several other people also agreed, but Cen Yetong stopped at this moment and called out "Teacher Ning."
Teacher Ning looked at us and sighed lowly: "It's good to be back. You and Jun Buyu are both top students in our class. We can't make any mistakes in this college entrance examination!"
Sen Yetong glanced at me, smiled and saluted: "Yes, I will definitely live up to my teacher's kindness!"
Hitomi Sumino who came back this time is very different from before. He is obviously much more cheerful and more consistent with his current age. I don't know what else happened to him, but I really feel for him now.
I am happy in this state.
Sumino Hitomi also lives in the student apartment, which is in the building opposite me. He asked a housekeeper to help take care of him, and he has someone to take care of him in his daily life. His legs will not affect his life.
On the second day after we came back, we went from the apartment to the classroom and walked on the cherry blossom path. We were still bickering and laughing, but when we looked up, we saw Jun Xiaoqing standing at the other end of the cherry blossom path.
She was wearing a school uniform, but it had only been a month, and she had lost a lot of weight. I thought she must have something to say to Sumino Hitomi, so she left early as an excuse to go on duty. When she turned around the corner, she saw Jun
Xiaoqing threw herself into Cen Yetong's arms, and the impact made Cen Yetong's body shake twice.
After all, I am still sorry for Jun Xiaoqing! But even if I don't agree to Cen Yetong's relationship, according to Grandpa Jun's wishes, there will be no relationship between Jun Xiaoqing and Cen Yetong.
It's just that she may not know this meaning, and her resentment towards me may have been deeply planted long ago.
I don’t know what Jun Xiaoqing and Cen Yetong said, but Cen Yetong didn’t let me wait too long before returning to the classroom. At that time, I was standing in front of the empty classroom window, watching the rising sun slowly rise.
, imagining that it was the beginning of another day, and whether Jun Changqian was also watching the same rising sun at the beach.
"Aren't you curious about what Jun Xiaoqing said to me?" Cen Yetong took the English dictionary from my hand and looked at me with burning eyes.
Although they are in their third year of high school, the whole class does not have a strong college entrance examination atmosphere. A large number of people have already found a school, and can even go to school without taking the college entrance examination. Like me and Sumino Hitomi, we do this early every morning
There are very few people who come to the classroom to study on their own.
"Then, what did she tell you?" After all, you still have to cooperate.
Sumino Hitomi put the English dictionary back into my hand, sat on the chair, and leaned back slightly with her hands protecting her strength: "She confessed to me and said she still likes me very much."
I smiled, sat down next to him, and looked at him sideways: "What next?"
Sen Yetong's expression changed, and she said, "Jun Buyu, your boyfriend was confessed to by another girl, aren't you nervous?"
I shook my hand, and the darkness in his eyes made me bite my lip lightly. I pretended to smile calmly and said, "I'm nervous, that's why I asked."
He stretched out his hand to touch my head and said, "How nice, I refused! I have a girlfriend!"
When his hand came close to my hair, I turned my head slightly, leaving him in the dark. I looked out the window. The morning sun had risen a lot, and there would probably be sparkling waves on the sea level.
I can't let others touch this long hair that is only for Jun Changqian, even if that person is Sum Yetong!
The days passed leisurely. Occasionally, Uncle Zhong would give me something. From time to time, he would tell me a few words about Jun Changqian's current situation, saying that the Jun family had almost reorganized itself and had recently invested in a piece of land in the eastern suburbs of City S.
, and Ji made a development plan. In fact, these are just Uncle Zhong’s ramblings. Such big things will naturally pop up after a little search. Or I have occasionally heard Lu Zi talking about these with other classmates, but
I usually turn a deaf ear to him, so what if I know more about him?
Grandpa Jun also came to see me once later and made an appointment to meet in a teahouse. He brewed a pot of Biluochun, and the fragrance filled the entire antique teahouse.
He and I were sitting across from each other. Perhaps it was the last conversation in his study. My courage to look directly gave him a different view.
"You have performed well in the past six months!" Another compliment started.
I didn't respond, not even a simple self-effacement, I just smiled and waited for his main question.
"Is there any problem with going to the q conference?" he asked, fiddling with the teacup in front of him, as if they were really the grandfather and grandson drinking tea and chatting.
But I know that this will definitely not be a small talk, and he will not give me so much time to chat. He just wants to make sure that what I said at the king's house will be fulfilled.
I shook my head: "Grandpa should have my transcripts from recent monthly exams and final exams."
Grandpa Jun looked at me for a long time and suddenly laughed: "It is indeed a child raised by Changqian. Then, I have no other meaning to see you today. Regarding Xiaoqing, you don't have to worry, she will not be the child you and Xiaoqing brought up."
The troubles between Cen."
I lowered my head slightly: "Then thank you grandpa."
