At the end of November, Song Luxi's birthday was held. At that time, the Dalian was relatively cold, at least three degrees lower than the average temperature in November right now. I hesitated on buying her roses and winter clothes. Murong Qingqing suggested that I buy her clothes, if I didn't have enough money, she should gather some for me. When Murong Qingqing's birthday came, I didn't give her anything. How could it be that Song Luxi is having her birthday now?
In the end, because I didn't have enough money, I decided to buy her a rose. On the day of Song Luxi's birthday, I didn't eat lunch at all and instead went to the people's plaza to buy roses. At that time, there were only a few flower shops on Dalian Street, so if they wanted to buy roses, they could only go to the general assembly of flowers. This is also my first time buying flowers, so I was cheated. At that time, there were two floors of Dalian's Flower Collection: the 1st floor was a regular flower seller, and the 2nd floor was a wholesale one. For the same flower, the difference between the first and second floors may be many times greater.
I bought some flowers on the first floor and asked my boss for a black plastic bag to cover them up. I took a bus back to school. When I got back to school, lunch time was already over. It was time for my nap. I held a black plastic bag at the entrance of the first floor which was blocked by Value Teacher Zhou and two Zhou students. If it was a normal day, how would Zhou Sheng dare to stop me? This is because our school's Zhou Sheng is a junior high school student, who doesn't know that I am the school's famous bad mongrel!
The Value Teacher Zhou who was blocking me wanted to deduct my points, and even asked me what was inside the black plastic bag. If it was in the past, I would have already barged in and fought with Value Teacher Zhou to a standstill. I wouldn't be afraid to deduct 100 points, but now I have learnt Essence. I had an idea and lied to her, "Today is my class teacher's birthday. I went out to buy some flowers on behalf of the whole class." After saying that, she showed the rose to Value Teacher Zhou.
When the Value Teacher Zhou saw the flower, he said to me, "How can I buy this flower? A rose, right? " Don't blame Value Teacher Zhou for not knowing what a rose looks like. Back then, there were really many people who had not seen what a rose looked like. Furthermore, there were no roses to send to his teacher's flowers. I continued to lie, "I don't know if it was a rose or not, but I thought it was pretty, so I bought it with my class fee."
Value Teacher Zhou waved his hand and let me in. As I walked into the school building, I loudly cursed Value Teacher Zhou for being such a stinky person. I arrived at the door of Song Luxi's class on the second floor. The teacher in his class was in front of me, prepping the homework. The front and back doors were also closed, so I didn't want to give them to her after class because there would be a lot of people there, so I was a bit embarrassed.
I stuck my head out of the window at the front of her classroom and swayed back and forth, hoping one of my classmates would look up and see me. After waiting for two to three minutes, a boy finally lifted his head up. When you were taking a nap, you were forced to sleep in the classroom. If you didn't sleep, you weren't allowed to look up. This was the so-called 'the worse the student, the stricter the school rules are, the more problems there are.'
When the man raised his head and saw me, he only glanced at me once before lowering his head again. I almost died from his anger, so anxious that I stomped my feet. After about a minute, a female classmate looked up and saw me. I quickly pointed in Song Luxi's direction, signalling for her to help me call Song Luxi. In the end, damn it, she didn't have much of a reaction and lowered her head as well.
Just when I was about to give up, that girl suddenly raised her head and woke up the student behind her and gave her a piece of paper. My God, she had bowed her head and written a note, and I had accepted it. The girl who was sleeping behind him opened the note and immediately revealed an unhappy expression. She must have thought that someone had passed her the slip of paper. But when she saw that it was for Song Luxi, she cursed at him.
This girl, however, wasn't as slow as the girl sitting in front of her; instead, she directly called out to Song Luxi in a small voice, and then threw the paper slip towards Song Luxi, halfway across the classroom. After tossing the note, she glanced at me at the front door of the classroom before she furiously leaned on the desk and continued her afternoon nap.
At this time, Song Luxi's class's class teacher glanced at her sleeping classmate and remained silent, continuing to correct her homework. At this point, Song Luxi had already seen the slip of paper. She waved at me and then stood up from her seat with a swagger. She walked to the front door and opened it, then walked to the corridor. The sound of the door opening woke many students up. Everyone saw me at the door of their classroom.
Song Luxi's homeroom teacher didn't seem to care too much about Song Luxi, but seeing the two of us, she didn't say anything. Song Luxi asked me what was wrong. At that time, I held the black plastic bag in my hand against my chest, and then pulled it off, revealing the roses inside. When Song Luxi saw the rose, he shouted loudly in the hallway, "Wa, wow, wow!" Song Luxi shouted three times in pleasant surprise. She knew how much she liked this birthday present.
There was a heart-shaped piece of paper inserted into the rose. It was written by Murong Qingqing after I finished writing last night. In addition to the four words "Happy Birthday", there was also a song word and my inner thoughts. The lyrics are the ending song of the movie "Heart" that Song Luxi and I watched when we went to my house last time.
I sent the rose forward and said to Song Luxi: "Happy birthday, darling." Song Luxi received the flower with both hands, and the first thing she did was to lower her head and smell the fragrance of the flower. After smelling the fragrance of the rose, Song Luxi opened up the heart-shaped letter. In front of me, I read out a few lines of the lyrics: "I like you from the beginning. White clouds twine around the blue sky. If we can't walk together forever, we can at least give you the courage and the right to hug so that you will understand the traces of my feelings."
After Song Luxi finished reciting the lyrics, she seemed to have finished reading the remaining thoughts in my heart while crying. Seeing Song Luxi moved by me, my goal could be considered to have been achieved. I smiled and said to Song Luxi: "Alright, go back and slowly move. Don't ruin the flower, I had deliberately run to the Flower Department to buy it at noon." As I spoke, I picked up the black plastic bag from the ground and started to cover the rose again.
Song Luxi did not let me cover her up, and said: "Such a beautiful flower, how can you use trash bags to store it?" I bitterly smiled and said, "If I don't use the trash bag, I can still bring flowers to our school." Song Luxi said to me: "Idiot." She giggled as she looked at me, then gave me a kiss before turning around to open the door. She then confidently took the rose and entered the classroom of her class.
When Song Luxi was shouting so loudly in the hallway just now, quite a few of their classmates had woken up. Now that Song Luxi had returned to their classes in such a high-profile manner, all of their classmates had cried out in alarm together. Quite a few students looked at me, causing me to laugh awkwardly in embarrassment. Then, I hurriedly turned around and walked towards the stairs.
The story of me sending roses to Song Luxi spread throughout our school in an afternoon. Even my class teacher knew about this, it must have been Song Luxi's class teacher. My homeroom teacher also warned me that if I were to do this sort of thing in the school in the future, I shouldn't come to school anymore. I heard that quite a few students had gone to Song Luxi's class to see the roses that I had sent to them. Song Luxi is also very good, so she placed the rose I gave her on the windowsill at the front of the classroom. Anyone who passed by the door of her class could see the bouquet of roses, and I seemed to be the first boy in our school to dare to send a bouquet of roses.
Tan Jie was unhappy that I sent Song Luxi the roses. She said that I copied her idea and that she would not tell me anything I asked her in the future. I teased Tan Jie, "Don't be envious, when it's your birthday, ask Ma Beiyi to send you a rose. It would be best if I could give it to you during the flag raising ceremony, in front of all the students in the school. Tan Jie scolded me to scram, told me not to show off, and even scolded Song Luxi and I for not long.
That day, after school, Song Luxi did not bring the rose home, but left the bouquet at school instead. I don't know how much longer Song Luxi's parents will keep an eye on him, but if it wasn't for that, at a normal rate of development, Song Luxi and I would have hit the home run already.
In December 1999, everyone began to wear their coats to school. It was dark when he left home in the morning and went to school. The weather had turned cold and there were fewer hooligans at the school gate. Sometimes, after school, there was not a single hooligan to be seen outside the school gate. He Tiantian returned back to school and went back to class, but there was a long knife wound on his face. Hearing Murong Qingqing say that, Xiao Tian's face would definitely have scars, and that Hu Tao was really like what Senior Brother said, he did not compensate Xiao Tian with much money.
Xiao Tian always wore a mask when he went to school every day, and he did so when he went to the toilet as well. I tried to look for Xiao Tian once and asked him what his plans were for the future. After Xiao Tian saw me, he told me to not look for him in his class anymore. He didn't plan to stay in school any longer. Xiao Tian told me that whether or not I am responsible for this matter, he will not come and find me in the future. He only wants to finish his junior high in peace.
Xiao Tian doesn't seem to be planning on coming out to fool around. I saw that he hadn't been with Huo Fan for the past few days. In the past, the two of them could be considered inseparable. In other words, when Huo Fan was kissing Shangguan Wan, Xiao Tian had to accompany him at the side. I also asked Huo Fan what he said. Huo Fan told me not to talk about this trash Xiao Tian in the future, he said that Xiao Tian had already broken off all ties with him.
The school is holding a 129-race race in the next two days, and I'm the one in my class. At the time, I even made a bet with the head teacher to let me join the group if I became the first in the year. If I didn't get first place, I would be moved to a spot near the back door where I could sit alone.
This was what we agreed in front of our classmates. When the time came, no one could go back on their word. The day before the long-distance running, I brought littler from Class 1 to Class 12 and asked them which two students from each class participated in the race. I called out all the students who were participating in the long-distance running competition and told them in a soft tone that I was going to be the champion of this year's competition. If anyone disagrees, we'll give it a try.
On the day of the long run, from the first to the third, they all started running at the same time. I always thought that Xiong Anni was only good at sprinting, but her long-distance running was also really good. From first grade to third grade, she was the first girl to run into the school gates, and then rush past the finish line. That bastard Liu Shiling was still on good terms with the both of them. After Xiong Anni had charged past the finishing line, she leaned on Liu Shiling's body. Ever since something had happened to Zhang Kai, he hadn't come out to stay at all. She had been guarding Xiong Anni every day, and the two of them lived quite a peaceful life together.
