Secret Love River (4)

  Friday, April 16, 2010 sunny

  Today, I am alone at home, didn't go see anyone, and didn't follow Wei Xingyun.

  I've already prepared myself mentally, even if he's going to be with Tiantian tonight, I think I can accept it.

  Tutu is not much different from me, she is decisive and efficient in her actions, has a good family environment, and they are all familiar with each other. Perhaps, she is more suitable for Wei Xingyun than I am.

  If Wei Xingyun ends up with my good friend, that's not a bad thing either. At least he won't develop anything with Li Xue.

  I've always thought that Li Xue's appearance was the biggest obstacle on my long and arduous path of unrequited love.

  Li Xue, was a famous beauty in our school year, who even gave a speech on behalf of the freshmen at the military training and opening ceremony. At that time, every freshman in the first year of high school was dark-skinned, except for her, probably because she was born with fair skin and did a good job of sun protection. The deep green camouflage uniform successfully set off her fair and lovely complexion, and her elegant and dignified performance almost mesmerized all the boys.

  Unfortunately, she was in the same class as Wei Xingyun. According to Zhou Shuangshuang's news, this Li Xue got along very well with Wei Xingyun.

  Wei Xingyun, who had just entered high school, was no longer as introverted and unassuming as he used to be. On the contrary, after a summer vacation, he seemed to have suddenly grown up, his height increased, his features deepened, and even his eyes became brighter. With good grades, even if he was a bit reserved, it wasn't hard for him to make friends.

  I took advantage of the Mediterranean not patrolling during class to quickly run to their door, and as expected, I saw the two of them talking, although they were not close together, but judging from their appearance, they seemed to be discussing something, which was enough to make me burn with jealousy.

  You're quite the Wei Xingyun, I've been classmates with you for so many years, even when we sat behind each other, I'd never seen you get along with me like this. Now that a beautiful girl has appeared, you're suddenly so familiar with her? So it turns out you're not introverted by nature, but rather only become outgoing in front of pretty girls!

  During that period, I started to crazily whiten my skin. Every day, I wore clothes that covered me up completely and didn't dare to get a bit of sun exposure. At night when I got home, I would use my mom's facial cleanser to wash my face three times, hoping to quickly restore my original skin tone. Heaven knows how pitiful it was! After a long time had passed, my skin tone finally gradually returned to normal. Although it wasn't as fair as Li Xue's, at least it didn't look as dark and shiny as before.

  It was around that time when I had my first face-to-face encounter with Li Xue.

  At that time, there were two large blackboards under our teaching building, just like in elementary school days. Each class was responsible for taking turns to put up the Blackboard Newspaper. It started from the first year of high school, and by the fifth issue, it was our class's turn along with Class 9 to co-host it.

  I heard it was with the ninth class, so I naturally raised my hand and claimed that I had rich experience in running a blackboard newspaper and could fully take on the task. In fact, I just wanted to build good relations with people from the ninth class, have more channels to understand Wei Xingyun, and best of all, I might even run into Wei Xingyun.

  However, that afternoon when we took our tools and walked in front of the blackboard, the person who came from Class 9 was not Wei Xingyun, but Li Xue.

  I suddenly feel like I'm in first gear.

  I said: "Hey, Li Xue, there are four people from your class already?"

  Yes, at that time I also played my usual role.

  Li Xue smiled warmly at me, "Yes, we're all experienced, so we can get it done quickly."

  We chatted like this, sentence by sentence, as if we had known each other for a long time.

  I was extremely perceptive and realized that Li Xue had also paid attention to me.

  I immediately felt a bit embarrassed, okay, during that glorious period of standing guard, it was hard for others to ignore me.

  Wei Xingyun didn't come, and Li Xue was there again. The enthusiasm of the famous detective Xia Mingming suddenly decreased a lot, and he had to honestly follow the class leaders to draw lines and write words. Two classes were working together on the blackboard newspaper, and it was inevitable that they would compare with each other. On the surface, everyone was polite, but in private, they closely watched every detail of their opponents. After finishing drawing on this side, they looked at the other side, and if they weren't satisfied, they had to erase and redraw again.

  I'm far from being a perfectionist like the class monitor, but with Li Xue by my side, I couldn't help but try my best to make everything perfect.

  It took us four days to finish the blackboard newspaper, which would have normally taken two or three days. On the last day, we didn't finish until everyone in the school had left.

  The final effect is surprisingly good, the theme is to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone used watercolor to paint, our side is a figure standing on the mountain top with clothes fluttering in the wind, while their side is an ancient man holding a cup and drinking in a pavilion, both of them looking up at the bright moon, very atmospheric. I can almost be sure that just these two traditional-style prints will allow us to win the best blackboard newspaper of this semester.

  Everyone looked at each other and smiled, with a sense of accomplishment in their hearts that was extraordinary.

  However, sometimes we yearn for perfection, but the ending always disappoints us. Life always leads us in a dramatic direction, as if to cultivate each of us into the best protagonist.

  The next morning, I accompanied Zhou Shuang to school. The crowd in front of the blackboard was packed, and at first, I felt a little proud, but suddenly I found that the words coming from over there didn't seem to be praise or admiration.

  As I walked closer, I saw two blackboards side by side. The one for our class was still fine, but the one for Class 9 had all its text erased. Although the watercolor painting couldn't be erased, someone had maliciously added several strokes to it with chalk.

  The few people in charge of the ninth class's blackboard newspaper, including Li Xue, were all furious and had red faces. The girl who was previously responsible for writing had already burst into tears.

  The people of Class 9 cursed one after another, with their accusations directly targeting our intact class. The kind-hearted class leader stood in front of the blackboard newspaper, blushing and explaining one by one. There were impulsive boys in Class 9 who wanted to erase our class's board newspaper as soon as they spoke.

  I was suddenly filled with rage, and rushed over quickly, standing together with the class monitor in front of the blackboard newspaper. For us young and innocent people at that time, the blackboard newspaper, which condensed everyone's hard work, was undoubtedly a great work comparable to the Mona Lisa.

  "What do you want to do? Your class's blackboard newspaper was destroyed and it has nothing to do with us, stay away from us!"

  "Our class was erased but yours wasn't, it's obvious who did it!" a boy shouted, and the crowd echoed in agreement.

  "Pfft! What evidence do you have to say it was us who did it? Yesterday we left at the same time, and by then it was almost dark, who would still come back to do something like this?" I immediately retorted.

  "You can't be sure about that, some people will do anything just to show off." someone said with a sarcastic tone.

  "You're right, some people might intentionally try to frame us just to show off, this kind of conspiracy is the most vicious!" I shot back.

  "You're being evasive!"

  "You wronged good people!"

  ……

  The boys in our class also arrived one after another, seeing the situation, immediately joined the scolding station, and the two sides scolded each other more and more fiercely, with a tendency to fight.

  The corner of my eye suddenly swept to Wei Xingyun beside me.

  He stood among the boys in their class, although he didn't join in the scolding, his expression was also very ugly.

  Our eyes met, I was just about to explain, he had already withdrawn his gaze, his face cold, his eyes looking elsewhere.

  I wonder what's wrong with him?

  "Guarding the Clouds..."

  "The teacher is coming, the teacher is coming...... Shh, shh...... Be quiet!" someone suddenly whispered.

  The teachers of our two classes all rushed over, the head teacher's face looked extremely ugly, and Mr. Mediterranean was still holding a bag of steamed buns in his hand.

  "What's going on?" our class teacher asked us.

  The person who was supporting us has arrived, and everyone's spirits immediately lifted. We all started speaking out of turn to the class teacher, telling him about our grievances. On the other hand, Mediterranean was maintaining order in the classroom, listening to everyone's accusations one by one, his face getting increasingly ugly.

  "Everyone go back to class first, I'll handle this." The Mediterranean waved his hand with a gloomy face.

  The Mediterranean way of speaking is always effective. Although we were still indignant, we listened and walked towards the classroom.

  "Xia Mi Mi." Suddenly, someone called me in the crowd.

  I turned around, it was Wei Xingyun with a cold face.

  I followed Wei Xingyun to the other side, he took a look at his classmates going upstairs one after another, and asked in a low voice: "Xia Miomi, do you know what's going on?"

  I was still fuming and retorted irritably, "You ask me, who am I supposed to ask?"

  "Xia Mi Mi, we're all grown up now. Some pranks aren't as easy to get away with as they were when we were kids..."

  "Stop right there!" I cut him off, my whole body trembling with rage. "You think I did this?"

  Wei Hangyun remained silent and didn't make a sound.

  "Wayne," my voice became sharp, "we've been classmates for so many years, and I even considered you a friend!"

  As soon as I finished speaking, tears couldn't stop gushing out. And there's one more thing, I kept it in my heart and didn't say it - how much I actually liked you!

  Seeing me cry, Wei Xingyun looked somewhat helpless, "I just thought of before... forget it, Mengmeng, don't cry, I'm not here to interrogate you, it was my misunderstanding..."

  " Misunderstanding?" I cried even harder, "It's not a misunderstanding at all. Now I finally know what image of me you have in your heart. Is it that whenever something bad happens, you always think of me as the one who did it? Am I so boring, so sinister, and so shameless?"

  "No, Mengmeng..." Wei Xingyun was somewhat flustered and wanted to explain, but I couldn't bear to listen no matter what.

  "Wei Xingyun, you're an idiot!"

  I thought we were at least friends by now. I thought he would have at least a friend's trust in me, but it's clear that he just doubted me.

  I turned around and ran away frantically, vowing in my heart that I would never like Wei Xingyun again!!!
