MTL - Shanghai Jiamu-Chapter 5

Xu Jiamu started his graduation trip, and I also made every effort to prepare for the senior high school entrance examination. On the day when the results of the college entrance examination came out, I got up very early. I knew the results would be released at 8:00, but I opened WeChat at 7:30, and asked Xu Jiamu how he was when the time came.

I paced the room alone, hating why time passed so slowly.

As soon as 8:00 came, I immediately opened the dialog box, but before I could type all the words, Xu Jiamu had already sent me a screenshot, which was his college entrance examination transcript.

Candidate Name: Xu Jiamu

I'm happy for him. In fact, with his grades, it's pretty good to be able to pass one of the exams. I asked Xu Jiamu which school he wanted to go to.

He said Shanghai.

There is no specific major, no definite school, he just likes this place.

I am used to controlling my emotions, and I am used to looking forward and backward. In fact, I don't understand why some people would think about it so naively when it comes to serious things like going to college.

But I was soon relieved, he is Xu Jiamu.

Xu Jiamu, Xu Jiamu. It is a good tree that grows recklessly in the gentle breeze, a young man who is always impulsive, passionate, and reckless.

I have forgotten what news I sent back to him at that time, it should be words of encouragement, but I clearly remember that I went through the best medical schools in Shanghai with the fastest speed in my mind, as if unconsciously, I'm already looking forward to meeting him, and I'm already secretly calculating how I can get closer to him.

Everything is settled for him, but I am about to start the senior high school entrance examination. I will stop touching my mobile phone when the senior high school entrance examination is approaching. I will leave it to my parents for safekeeping. Before that, I told Xu Jiamu to let him have fun and take more photos for me. I yearn for it Hangzhou, maybe because I have been living in the north, I have always had fantasies about that misty and rainy place. Unfortunately, I am still young, and my family's situation is that it is delusional to expect a harmonious family trip. It's just that this kind of polite words that everyone knows well, I didn't expect him to take it to heart.

The high school entrance examination is a big event, but I didn’t feel any nervousness for some reason. These three days passed like the usual school monthly examinations, but when I walked out of the examination room after the last one, I still felt a burst of joy for no reason. Finally out of the title of junior high school student, in his opinion, he should be more mature.

The first thing you do when you get your phone is to check WeChat.

I used to use □□, and the only contact I had acquainted with on WeChat was Xu Jiamu. In fact, when I saw a red circle with 42 appearing on the green software, I was already secretly happy, but I was not sure. When I opened it and saw most of the dialog boxes with him, I let myself curl my mouth secretly.

Basically no text, mostly pictures. He went to the ancient town of Hangzhou, the quaint place, which actually felt like a paradise. To be honest, Xu Jiamu is not a good photographer. The photos he takes are neither particular about composition nor color tone. I took pictures of everything I saw: bungalows with wooden tiles and white walls, trickling streams, wooden bridges carved with myths...even children playing in water and grandmas selling bracelets on the street.

Some of those photos were so blurry that I couldn't see them clearly, but I somehow felt like I was walking with him.

I can see him quarreling with the child, howling in anger to find the parents to uphold justice, and he swaggers away with a successful smile; I can see him smiling and saying that he wants to buy a lot to give away when he sees that grandma’s life is difficult. Classmates, ask grandma to make up a few more.

I laughed again after thinking about it, Xu Jiamu is someone who can do such a thing.

I replied to him one by one, and when I returned to the seventeenth article, he sent a message.

Huangfu Tieniu: Cuihua finished the exam?

Utopia: Yes

Huangfu Tieniu: How is it!

Utopia: I think it’s not bad

Huangfu Tieniu: I said you can, and you will be a high school student in the future!

The corners of my mouth curled up again. Well, I'm a high school student, and I've grown up a bit.

His trip was not over yet, so I was embarrassed to drag him to chat with me, chatted casually for a few words and then each went offline. I looked at those photos over and over again, and chose a fairly clear sunset as my wallpaper. The screen turned on, turned off, turned on again, and my mood suddenly brightened.

I have never been to Hangzhou, but I have walked thousands of times in that ancient town in my heart.

It was a cloudy and rainy day when the results of the senior high school entrance examination came out, and my heart started beating early in the morning. I thought I was not nervous at first, but my hands were still trembling when I opened the website.

639.5

What a ridiculous result, and it is only 1.5 points away from No. 1 middle school's supplementary record line.

I'm not really disappointed. When I applied for No. 1 Middle School, I was attracted to it and could pay the school selection fee. No matter what, it was considered a layer of protection.

It's just that the loss is still there.

Why, it seems that everything is a little bit close, and it is so close that it is so close, and it will never be within reach.

Huangfu Tieniu: Hurry up, I want to be the first to know the good news

The message that popped up on my phone made me extremely paralyzed.

Utopia: I’m sorry, I’ve let you down, it’s 1.5 difference from the make-up recording…

Huangfu Tieniu: Hi, I guessed it

Utopia: ? ? ?

What, I really can't comfort people, I thought dully.

Before I had time to ask him, his phone call came.

"…Hey."

There was no words on the other side, and there was a low laugh.

"Hey! Xu Jiamu, do you have any sympathy?" I was so annoyed that I didn't call him Uncle Tieniu as usual.

"Stop laughing, stop laughing, are you angry with Cuihua?"

I kept silent and didn't speak, how could I be angry with him, but only angry with myself.

"Actually, you know it yourself. You almost missed the No. 1 middle school, and you are not willing to go to No. 33, so you might as well give it a go."

"So don't be angry with the 1.5 points, boast that you succeeded in the fight, there are more than 900 people in the city, you are too good, kid!"

My heart was both sweet and astringent. The sweet thing was that he praised me for being great, and the sour thing was that he called me a kid again.

Obviously a high school student, not a kid anymore...

But it is undeniable that I was successfully comforted by him, and Xu Jiamu's friend came to ask him to hang out before I had a few words. The reaction was as flat as I expected. I was so bored that I was playing with my mobile phone on the bed when a takeaway call came in suddenly.

I answered the phone suspiciously.

"Hello, your takeaway has arrived, please come down and pick it up."

"Did you make a mistake? I didn't order takeaway."

"That's right, you are Ms. Zhou with the ending number 1757, right? I see that there is a note written for you, and it should be ordered by your friend."

I was even more surprised, it was really me. An unbelievable idea appeared, and I forcibly pressed it back.

I grabbed a coat and went out, but I still sent Xu Jiamu a WeChat message.

Utopia: Did you order takeaway for me?

Xu Jiamu didn't reply, he should be playing hard at this meeting.

I thanked the delivery boy before I had time to open the packaging bag. It was a cup of jasmine milk tea, three-point sugar, and room temperature.

"Your reward."

When I saw this note, even if Xu Jiamu hadn't replied to the message, I was sure it was him who ordered it. He seems to be really good at comforting people.

The mellow aroma of milk tea spreads in my mouth, I hum this song and go home. I read from books that human beings had tails a long time ago. I thought, if I had a tail, it must be raised high at this moment.
