MTL - Chasing Summer-Chapter 3

Lin Zhexia was a little confused for a while.

The soda can ring was still alone on her finger.

The main reason is that Chi Yao's move made people defenseless, like a sudden attack.

Obviously just now he looked like he didn't want to talk to her.

So by the time she realized it, she had already missed the best time to fight back.

She could only reply: "As long as you are smart, I have never practiced it, so it's normal to not know how to drive."

Lin Zhexia continued to speak slowly: "And who knows, did you secretly practice for a long time just to look handsome?"

"..."

During the conversation.

Chi Yao had already withdrawn his hand, still resting on his knee, continued to watch the movie, and withdrew the eyes that had glanced at her like a charity just now.

Just drop the next sentence: "I look idle?"

The second half of the movie is a very conventional plot. The protagonist and his party find the villain behind the scenes, and then duel with the villain at a critical moment.

Lin Zhexia took a sip of the lemonade in her hand, and continued to watch.

After watching the movie, He Yang and the others suggested that they want to play board games.

For this group of students on summer vacation, the most important thing is time.

He Yang brought his own board game cards, and took out a stack of black cards from his pocket: "I'll distribute them to everyone, gather those who want to play, and I'll explain the rules of the game."

"Brother Yao," He Yang handed over the remaining deck of cards when the cards were dealt to them, "Draw one?"

Chi Yao glanced at the cards in his hand, but didn't pick it up: "I'm a little sleepy, I'll sleep for a while."

He Yang turned to Lin Zhexia: "Okay, Brother Xia, smoke it."

Lin Zhexia copied and pasted Chi Yao's template: "You play, I will do my homework."

"..."

He Yang took the cards back and got used to it: "You two do something special every time."

Although the people in their "South Alley Squad" grew up together, their relationship is always close. Everyone in the group acquiesces to a fact: Lin Zhexia and Chi Yao, these two people who are at odds with each other, actually The above are the closest couple of them all.

Chi Yao said he was a little sleepy, but he really slept for a while.

Lin Zhexia guessed that he rushed back last night because he must have been tossing all the way.

It's just that he didn't go back to his room to sleep, probably because he didn't intend to sleep for too long, so he fell asleep next to Lin Zhexia.

The lazy sofa is originally placed on the carpet, and you can sleep on the carpet directly with your head on it, but someone's legs are too long, even sleeping on the carpet is a bit cramped.

Lin Zhexia looked down at her legs, compared their lengths, and silently turned over the unfinished homework just now.

In the middle of her homework, Chi Yao woke up.

Lin Zhexia was wandering in the ocean of learning, without knowing it.

until she heard a sentence:

"This question is wrong."

After half a minute, another sentence:

"That's not the right question either."

"..."

"You can get into No. 2 Middle School," Chi Yao finally commented, "It's not easy."

Lin Zhexia paused on the paper, and replied: "Thank you for your affirmation, luck is indeed a part of strength."

In the end, the matter developed into that He Yang and the others were playing board games on the sidelines, and a group of people were chattering so loudly that Chi Yao gave her a lecture amidst the noise.

He just woke up.

With one hand propped on the carpet, she sat up and approached her, while the other hand held a pen between her fingers, and wrote the steps to solve the problem in the blank space of her book.

"This question is a bit difficult," Lin Zhexia made up for himself, "Comprehensive questions, you will lose more points."

Chi Yao's characters are very similar to his characters.

The style of writing is free and easy, and the handwriting is beautiful, but the writing is too fast and a little confusing.

"Difficult?" He scratched his pen and wrote the last word, "I don't even bother to solve this question."

"..."

calm.

Calm down.

Put aside the phenomenon, look at the essence.

No matter what, this person is also giving her a lecture now.

And it's not the first time.

I have known him for so many years, and his lecture topics have always been in this style.

Those who make big things don't stick to small details.

So, be calm and calm.

Lin Zhexia counseled herself in her heart, and quickly adjusted her emotions: "It's really hard for you, you are willing to move your noble fingers and leave your priceless handwriting on my homework, I am very, very move."

Chi Yao put down his pen, and didn't like her at all.

Lin Zhexia followed the steps he gave to answer the question just now.

In fact, Chi Yao often gave her lectures.

Often to the extent that Lin Zhexia took it for granted.

While erasing the original answer, she chatted with Chi Yao about his visit to relatives in the next city some time ago: "By the way, where did you visit relatives a few days ago?"

"The city next door."

Chi Yao said: "A child from a relative's family is hosting a birthday party."

Lin Zhexia said while revising: "Is there a lottery or something? I did it when I was young..."

She hasn't spoken yet.

Chi Yao followed her words: "You grabbed the tablecloth."

"Did I say that before?" Lin Zhexia didn't have much memory. After all, she and Chi Yao talked so much every day. It was hard to remember what was said and what was not said. "You have a really good memory."

Chi Yao spoke with a bit of sarcasm: "Oh, this has nothing to do with memory, as long as a person repeats the stupid things she has done to you more than three times, you will remember them too."

"..."

Lin Zhexia changed the subject in a timely manner: "What did you catch when you were young? You probably didn't catch anything."

Chi Yao did not catch him.

"No way," he said.

"Nothing?"

"One-year feast," Chi Yao said indifferently, "The family business was too busy that year."

Lin Zhexia remembered Chi Yao's mother's cold face with a strong aura. I heard Lin He say that Chi Yao's mother returned to work just after giving birth. A strong woman like her , it is not surprising that there is no birthday party.

After a while, Lin Zhexia said, "So you really didn't catch anything."

"...?"

She continued word by word: "No wonder now, then, it's not a thing."

After Chi Yao came back, Lin Zhexia's homework was settled.

It started the day after Chi Yao came back.

Lin Zhexia always ran to Chi Yao's house with her homework.

"Mom," Lin Zhexia said angrily when he ran out that day, "I'm going to Chi Yao's house, I might not come back for lunch, so don't wait for me."

Sometimes Lin He would also have some opinions: "You are a big girl now, don't always run to other people's houses like you did when you were a child."

Lin Zhexia: "It's okay. In Chi Yao's eyes, I'm not considered a woman. It's pretty good to be considered a primate hominid."

It's just that besides Lin He, there is another person who has some opinions on her.

Lin Zhexia knocked on the door of Chi Yao's house with her homework, and Chi Yao wanted to close the door when she saw her.

Lin Zhexia hugged her homework, freed one hand, and pressed her hand on the door panel, trying to squeeze in through the crack of the door: "I'll do my homework."

Chi Yao spoke to her in the tone of "you are sick": "You have the disease that you can't do your homework half a step away from my house?"

Lin Zhexia said: "The question is a bit difficult..."

Chi Yao: "It's probably useless to change places, maybe you need to change your mind."

Lin Zhexia continued to squeeze: "Just do a good deed that day."

The door that had been repeatedly pushed and pulled suddenly stopped moving after she finished speaking.

Chi Yao put his hand on the doorknob, and didn't continue to push hard.

So the half-open door seemed to be stuck.

Through that slit, one could just see half of Chi Yao's face.

Lin Zhexia saw his broken hair hanging in front of his eyes, his thin jaw, and his sudden smile.

He felt too far away, even when he laughed, the cold arrogance still lingered.

"Feel sorry."

"I've never been kind," Chi Yao said with a half-smile, "Because I'm not a thing."

Lin Zhexia: "..."

Lin Zhexia suspected that he was simply taking the opportunity to retaliate.

She won't be that day!

Casually! Did you say something?

As for what!

After a few seconds.

She watched the door of Chi Yao's house close in front of her eyes.

Lin Zhexia squatted in front of Chi Yao's house with her homework and refused to leave.

While squatting, he took out his mobile phone to send a message to Chi Yao.

- let me in orz

- it's very windy outside

-I feel so cold

After half a minute.

Chi Yao replied and reminded her:

- you are in the corridor.

- I mean my heart is leaking.

-…

inside the door.

Chi Yao leaned his back against the door, only a door away from her, and when he saw this sentence, he cursed "fool" in a low voice.

Then he paused with his fingers on the screen and typed a few words: Open the door and come in by yourself.

He hasn't pressed send yet.

There was a new movement outside the door.

It was the sound of the neighbor opening the door.

A couple of elderly people lived opposite the door. The elderly people should just go out to throw garbage. Everyone has lived here for many years and they are very familiar with each other. When they saw that it was Lin Zhexia, the old man said hello to her: "Xiao Lin, come to see Chi again. Yao? Why are you squatting at the door?"

"Grandpa Wang."

Lin Zhexia's voice became a lot louder, and she deliberately said to the person in the door: "I'm here to ask questions. This summer vacation, I dare not relax for a moment. I insist on writing exercises every day. I only want to study. I The reason why he squats at the door is—Chi Yao is too stingy, he is worried that I will become smarter than him and surpass him in grades, so he refuses to teach me and rejects me—” Outside the door.

But the word "outside the door" could not be uttered.

There was a "click".

The door opened.

Lin Zhexia felt a force behind her, and that force tugged at the back collar of her clothes, and directly pulled her back in.

Chi Yao tugged at her and said, "Take your homework and get out."

The singing of cicadas in August this year continued enthusiastically from the beginning of the month to the end of the month.

Lin Zhexia's memories of this summer are the air conditioner in Chi Yao's house, the bubbling lemonade on the table, and the stack of homework written on it that gradually became thinner.

Chi Yao would play games next to her while she was doing homework.

This person was as careless as ever when he was playing games, pointing his fingers casually on the interface, Lin Zhexia sometimes glanced at him, and often caught a glimpse of a striking "five kills" reminder.

Chi Yao's desk is very spacious.

More often, he would sleep on the other side of the desk.

One hand hangs on the edge of the table and the other rests on the back of the neck, like a student sitting in the back row of the classroom who is not listening to the lecture.

Most of the holidays have passed like this, and it's time for the school to start soon.

On the dinner table today.

Lin He mentioned the start of school: "School is about to start, take it easy and adjust your state. High school is a very important stage, you know?"

Lin Zhexia listened, nodding while poking the rice in the bowl.

"By the way, your Uncle Wei bought you some new notebooks."

Lin Zhexia hurriedly said, "Thank you Uncle Wei."

Lin He added: "There is also a new schoolbag, you can see if you like it after dinner. New school year, new atmosphere."

After the meal, Lin Zhexia sat on the sofa and opened the presents.

Wei Ping also sat down.

When Lin He was not around, she and Wei Ping got along with each other, which was somewhat awkward.

Lin Zhexia broke the silence: "Thank you uncle, the schoolbag is very nice, I like it very much, would you like... some water? I'll get you some water."

Wei Ping wore glasses, looking honest and elegant: "Ah, no, thank you. That, as long as you like it."

Wei Ping said again: "Do you want some fruit? I'll cut an orange for you."

Lin Zhexia had just finished eating, and refused: "I don't need it either, thank you uncle, don't bother."

After some pleasantries, the topic quickly came to an end.

Lin Zhexia lowered her head and played with her mobile phone. She habitually clicked on the chat box with Chi Yao.

I was bored and sent a few words in the past:

-what are you doing

- school starts soon

-We have one school this time! Can! Let's go to school together!

- will we be in the same class

Chi Yao didn't return.

She waited for a while, then backed out.

Next to him, Wei Ping coughed lightly, and finally found a topic: "School will start soon, and you are going to a new school, are you nervous?"

Lin Zhexia thought for a while and answered him: "Fortunately, I'm not very nervous."

She's really not that nervous.

If you have to say nervous, it's not about going to a new school, but because her grades are a bit embarrassing.

Although he was admitted to No. 2 Middle School, no matter how you say it, he was able to get in because of his extraordinary performance.

Lin Zhexia has always been a very self-aware person.

Although emotionally she didn't want to write the extra tasks assigned by Lin He, but intellectually, she knew very well that she really needed these assignments.

She knew that her grades were not good, so she should work harder.

So she completes these 20 pages of homework every day with quality and quantity.

And because of Chi Yao's presence during this time—although the style of this person's lectures is not very friendly, often accompanied by cynicism and life attacks, it is true that because of him, she has mastered a lot of knowledge in the first year of high school in advance.

These days under Chi Yao's "tuition".

She gradually discovered that the little bit of tension brought about by the start of school had disappeared.

After she finished speaking, the phone screen lit up.

[You have received two new messages]

Chigou: In terms of scores

Chigou: unlikely

After a while, the screen turned on again.

-and also.

- It's an honor for you to be in the same school as me

- don't ask too much

"..."

Facing these messages, Lin Zhexia couldn't help but reflect on whether she was too full for dinner at night.

Otherwise, if you are full and have nothing to do, send a message to this person.
