Chapter 118: Dark Sky Under the First Snow [Three Updates]
She is in Class 7 of Grade . Her classroom is upstairs, but when she needs boiled water between classes, the little girl likes to run downstairs to get it.
Whenever I pass by Class 5 of Grade 5, if I'm lucky, I can catch a glimpse of the crazy boy with a crew cut in the back row of the classroom. If I'm unlucky, I won't be able to see him.
Regardless of whether she could see it or not, the little girl would just turn her head to take a glance, then hurriedly walk to the outside of the toilet to get a glass of boiled water, and then go upstairs from the other end of the corridor to return to class.
Every time I get water during class, I have to go around this big circle with great effort.
She gradually developed this habit since the first grade of junior high school.
But this time, the little girl heard a quarrel coming from Class 5. In the quarrel, she not only heard the familiar name "Lu Yuanqiu", but also heard the boy's angry voice.
Rarely, the little girl huddled and stopped in the corridor, holding a plastic cup.
"Damn it, they are all targeting me, right? Damn it!"
The boy walked out of the classroom angrily and glanced at the little girl at the door. The little girl immediately lowered her eyes and continued walking forward. The boy just turned around and walked towards the office. He did not recognize who the girl was.
After getting the water, the little girl returned to Class 7 of Grade and sat down quietly in her seat in the back row. She put the plastic cup on the table and covered the cup with her two little hands that were blackened and cracked from the cold.
She looked up at her only good friend in the class, a little girl wearing glasses named Liu Xian.
But Liu Xian has more than one good friend in the class, so most of the time the little girl will not take the initiative to talk to Liu Xian. If Liu Xian takes the initiative to talk to her, she will enthusiastically take over the conversation and continue to find topics to continue the conversation.
"Bai Qingxia, have you got some water? Let's go together!"
Liu Xian shouted from afar, holding his thermos cup.
The little girl was about to stand up and answer when she heard another good friend of Liu Xian speak up: "Liu Xian, don't take the water. Let's go out of the school gate and go to the shop across the street to buy some hot sugar water!"
Liu Xian turned around and said with an embarrassed expression: "Ah... I don't dare to go. There is a fool sitting in the flower bed at the door. I am a little scared."
Hearing this, the little girl silently sat back in her seat. She took a deep breath and continued to cover the hot plastic cup with her little hands without saying a word. The pair of eyes hidden under her long and messy hair quietly looked at the water in the cup, but her eye sockets slowly turned red.
In the cold winter, it seems that only the cup in front of you is hot.
After school in the evening, when most students had left, the little girl came outside the school with a lunch box in her arms.
While everyone else was wearing thick cotton socks, she wore short thin socks and canvas shoes made of only one layer of cloth. Although she tried not to pull her school uniform trousers up, the trouser legs still couldn't cover her exposed ankles.
The canvas shoes made a rustling sound as they stepped on a thin layer of snow. The girl looked up and found a boy with a crew cut sitting next to his father at the edge of the flower bed.
She was stunned for a moment, then silently lowered her head, covering her face with her long and messy hair.
The little girl was far away and went around to the opposite side of the flower bed from the path on the other side. She used her little hands to sweep away the thin layer of snow on the edge of the flower bed and slowly sat down.
The boy with a crew cut and his father were sitting and chatting about five meters behind her.
It was called a chat, but in fact it was just the boy with the crew cut complaining to himself.
"Uncle, do you think these people are bastards? I'm so pissed off."
"I just got a little closer to you, and they started talking about me behind my back. I really don't know what I did wrong. Besides, I'm not the only one helping you. There was also a...was it a woman or a man? Anyway, there were other people helping you too!"
"This shows that there are others who do the same thing I do with me! Are they wrong too?"
"I am so angry that I am vomiting blood. They are all targeting me. They also won't let me sign up for the New Year's Day program."
"How am I a bad student? I just got into a few more fights. Are you going to label me a bad student?"
He said so much in one breath, but the silly uncle next to him just swung his feet happily, looking at the school gate, as if he was waiting for someone, and didn't listen to what the boy said at all.
The little girl sat quietly in the back and looked down at the lunch box. She unzipped it and silently put the still hot lunch box into her arms and held it.
She was waiting for the shaved boy behind her to leave, but she also wanted him to stay here for a while before leaving. The boy was silent for a long time before he started to mutter, "I don't want to be a bad student, and I'm not a bad student, I'm really not..."
"I have been preparing for this New Year's Day program for a long time, ah..."
"But what's the point of telling you this?"
"But if I don't tell you, I can't seem to find anyone to talk to about these things."
"Tomorrow is New Year's Day. I just want an audience."
After mumbling these things, the boy seemed to have thought of something and said excitedly: "That's right, uncle!"
"Aren't you my audience?!"
"Those sons of bitches don't like me, so why should I perform for them?!"
"You are my friend, I should perform for you!"
"Hey, I'm so smart."
"Why should I cater to people who don't like me?"
After saying that, the boy with the crew cut jumped and ran away foolishly. When he passed by a tree nearby, he jumped up excitedly and reached for the branches.
The little girl turned her head and looked at the boy's back as he left. After watching him quietly for a while, she quickly stood up and walked to her father, put the lunch box in his arms, and sat down next to him.
"Xia Xia!"
……
The next afternoon, New Year’s Day party.
In Class 7 of Grade , all the desks and chairs were moved around the classroom, leaving a large open area in the middle for students to perform.
The little girl sat in the corner of the classroom, watching her classmates dancing and singing. Even her only good friend Liu Xian had a performance.
But at this moment, the little girl had no intention of waiting for her good friend's show.
While others were having fun, she took advantage of the toilet time to run out of the teaching building and came to the school gate.
The girl in canvas shoes slowly approached the gate. Her steps became slower and slower as she stepped on the thin snow.
Beside the flower bed at the school gate, the fool sat there swinging his legs happily, looking at the boy standing in front of him with great excitement.
The boy with a crew cut was holding a guitar in his arms with the guitar strap hanging around his neck. There was snow flakes like cotton candy floating in the air. He was alone in the snow, singing a song for the fool that he had carefully prepared for New Year's Day.
The girl held the iron gate railings with her two little hands. She didn't know the name of the song, but she knew it was very nice, so nice that it made her shed hot tears as she stood inside the iron gate and watched the scene quietly.
The boy with a crew cut was singing happily, holding his guitar, and his image gradually became eternal in the girl's eyes.
"I fell in love with someone who made me risk my life~"
“I thought this was the world I was looking for~”
……
Later, the little girl learned from Sister Li that the song she had been learning to sing for a long time was called "The Sky is Dark".
