They didn't get their graduation photos until just before the college entrance examination. The photo positions for their class were arranged in descending order of height. Li Yan had to put on some height-increasing insoles to squeeze in next to Wen Yi,
Although she was laughed at by many people who knew her that day.
In the printed photo, the two seemed to be smiling seriously at the camera, but in fact they were pinching each other's fingers underneath where no one else could see.
"The photo looks pretty good." Li Yan said, stuffing it into the compartment of his school bag.
Wen Yi was not in a hurry to accept it, but poked Li Yan's cheek in the photo and touched it with his fingertips for a long time.
After Li Yan put away his things, he looked at her, held her wrist and put it against his face.
"You can touch me if you want, I'm right in front of you." Li Yan blinked, with a hint of teasing, and deliberately said to her in an angry voice.
Wen Yi pressed her lips with his thumb, not too hard.
Li Yan opened it slightly, stretched out the tip of his tongue and tapped it lightly.
After licking it, he immediately regretted it. He blushed and pushed her hand away with an expressionless expression, pretending that nothing had happened.
Wen Yi curled her lips and smiled, remembering what netizens said to her during the live broadcast.
He moved his lips and uttered three words: "Little rookie."
"..." Li Yan bit his lower lip and raised his hand to give her a slap on the thigh.
On the last day of school, Li Yan was not as reluctant as expected. Instead, Zheng Sixheng cried profusely, dragging her schoolbag with snot and tears.
Li Yan knelt down and looked at her sincerely, "Sister, we have graduated, we are not going to see each other again."
Zheng Sixheng's eyes were still red and swollen, "No, I feel sad when I think that I will soon change from a livestock to a social animal."
Li Yan: "..."
The school is mainly composed of day students, and the homes of the classmates are not far away. Some people have already discussed having a meal at a good friend's house.
Zheng Sixheng puffed up his chest: "I don't care! I have to go have a drink today! No one can stop me!"
Li Yan shook her shoulders: "Please wake up, we haven't finished the exam yet."
Li Xinyi pulled her up from the ground, "Stop making trouble, let's talk about it after the exam."
Zheng Sixheng took advantage of the situation and collapsed on top of her, unable to hold him steady.
Li Yan glanced at the students around him. Her appearance was so funny that it was a bit embarrassing.
She glanced at Wen Yi again, "If you like someone like me who doesn't make a fuss, just have fun with it."
The next second I saw Li Xinyi carrying Zheng Sixheng on her back and walking slowly forward.
The students next to them thought the person on their back was injured and took the initiative to give way to them.
The two of them walked closely together on the path in the middle. The orange light of the setting sun slanted into the corridor, and everyone had a relaxed smile on their face.
very nice.
Wen Yi pinched her face, "What are you laughing at?"
"Huh?" Li Yan subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, and even she didn't realize that she was smiling.
"Oh..." She put her hand down and stared at the backs of the two people in front of her, "I was just thinking, this is really good."
Wen Yi understood what she was saying, but she still held her shoulders, "I can also carry you."
Li Yan just glanced at her.
They dispersed at the school gate. Some wanted to do the final sprint review, while others were anxious to go home and relax.
Li Yan fell in love with the feeling of walking on the street with Wen Yi, holding the warmth of another person in his hand, walking together leaning against each other, listening to the same song with Bluetooth headphones on, and even the wind was sweet.
There were a few purple-red clouds stacked on the skyline, which reminded her of the day when classes were divided.
The same busy road, the same music in the headphones.
That time Wen Yi plucked up the courage to get closer, and she somehow accepted the presence of another person in the world.
"Time flies so fast," she said.
The awkward encounter seemed to be still before their eyes, and now they were all sleeping on the same bed.
Li Yan suddenly turned around and asked Wen Yi: "Can you still get your father's donation back?"
Before the person being asked could answer, she consciously asked a nonsense question, and then explained: "I didn't see any construction in the library, so it must have been swallowed up by someone."
Wen Yi hooked her little finger and said, "No, maybe it will benefit the next few generations."
"Okay." Li Yan stopped talking.
She thought of Wen Yi's unremitting search over the years. If she could clearly tell her hometown from the beginning, Wen Yi wouldn't have to work so hard.
They can meet earlier, become friends earlier, and be attracted to each other earlier.
Maybe with Wen Yi's support, she won't give up on her dream so easily, what if she becomes one of the youngest singers in the circle...
Stop thinking about it. Li Yan said to himself.
Vain illusions cannot save the past self. Putting hope in yourself is the real me.
Wen Yi moved his fingers and drew a few lines on her palm.
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Yan came back to his senses and closed his eyes.
"I was thinking, if I hadn't met you, maybe I would have gone on step by step." There was a colorful halo in her eyes, "Like most people, I went to a very ordinary university and found a university. A job with no future is like an assembly line, being dragged forward by life. ”
"For a long time, my dreams were just things I didn't dare mention. Maybe after a long, long time, when my life is no longer so embarrassing, I will have the courage to pick up the things I threw away so cruelly."
The air was mixed with a few grains of dust that felt distinct to the touch, scraping against her face and making her eyes red.
Wen Yi reached out and hugged her tightly, putting one hand on the back of her head to comfort her gently.
Li Yan's throat felt itchy, and she paused before continuing.
"Now I really live for myself."
The me now, the me after meeting you, the me who was pulled up by you again.
Wen Yi's lips curved slightly, and he whispered in her ear: "Our teacher Xiao Li is the best."
The best, the most special, the most unique.
Smelling the aroma of Wen Yi's shampoo behind her ears, she suddenly laughed again.
"By the way, if I really have enough savings to sing, will I become a scarce person in another sense?"
She didn't want Wen Yi to respond to this nonsensical remark, so she quickly added one.
"I am the luckiest teacher Xiao Li."
Wen Yi rarely agreed to give her a night's rest. After all, there was an exam tomorrow, and he didn't bother her to review hard.
Li Yan sat at the computer desk and watched her busy in the living room. He happily opened the live broadcast and planned to chat with netizens.
Her online name is a combination of her last name, and when she registered, she tried to convince herself to settle for the status quo, so she chose the name "He Wuqiu", which looked particularly stoic.
Don't struggle, don't resist, just go on peacefully.
But she is different now, so she doesn't like this online name.
But Wen Yi had already made the concert poster for her, and a few die-hard fans who especially loved hearing her sing had already gotten the posters sent out first.
All right. she thought.
After the concert was completed, the name was changed to "Everything Wanted"!
Wen Yi cooked for her outside, while she chatted with netizens in the study.
"Yes, yes, the anchor is about to take the college entrance examination." She squinted and replied to the barrage on her phone.
Li Yan opened a pack of snacks and leaned back lazily on the chair, "My best friend? My best friend is cooking in the kitchen."
Ever since she told everyone about their relationship history, Wen Yi has earned the title of "good bestie".
My best friend happened to pass by the open door of the study and listened to all these words word for word.
She turned around, walked up to Li Yan, pulled her collar and lowered her head to give him a sip. "..."
The culprit walked away quietly in his slippers, leaving Li Yan alone with his lips pursed and his cheeks red.
Ignoring the screams on the barrage, Li Yan cleared his throat and was about to speak when he was interrupted by a message popping up on his phone.
She clicked on it and found a dialog box that had been quiet for a long time before a transfer message popped up.
Li Yan trembled slightly, and the hand he went to open froze in mid-air.
"...I'm sorry everyone, I'm going out for a moment."
Without looking at the camera, she stood up and almost stumbled into the kitchen.
Wen Yi turned around and hugged her with a surprised expression, "What's wrong?"
The screen of Li Yan's phone hadn't turned off yet. When she raised her head from Wen Yi's arms, her eyes were already filled with moisture.
"What does this mean, Wen Yi..."
The message on the phone came into view.
"...Why, why is she transferring money to me at this time?"
On the small bright square brick, her mother, whom she had not seen for a long time, transferred 10,000 yuan to her.
Wen Yi's eyelashes trembled, and she put her hands on the armpits of Li Yan, whose legs were weak, "Don't worry yet, baby."
Is it the last trace of affection after severing the relationship and becoming strangers, or is it a step taken by caring about family affection.
Before I had time to ask, my phone vibrated several times.
"Mom: Please accept the tuition for the first year of college."
"Mom: Go away and never come back again."
Before the brain has completely filtered it, tears have already burst out of my eyes.
Wen Yi wiped away her endless tears, feeling so distressed that he felt like he was being drowned by the waves.
Li Yan stared at those words for a long time and suddenly laughed slowly.
His throat was so choked that he couldn't make a sound, like a sponge stuck in the middle, and his breath was short in his chest.
"...Just leave." Li Yan buried himself in Wen Yi's neck, the tip of his nose was sore and swollen.
"It's pretty good, at least they didn't ask me to pay them back."
This look of forcing himself to take pleasure in hardship made Wen Yi breathless.
She lowered her eyes and kissed away the tears that fell on her lips, and stood aside quietly without saying anything.
After Li Yan recovered, he sat in front of the camera again, the redness in his eyes not obvious.
She confiscated the transfer and deleted the chat box as if she had seen nothing.
There were only a few people left in the live broadcast room, so she hesitated before opening her mouth to go off the air.
A line of words floated across the screen.
"When the anchor doesn't speak, it's like watching a mime."
Her thoughts paused for a moment, and a transparent memory squeezed into the gap.
Wen Yi sat on the ground with his legs bent and put his head on her lap, like a well-behaved pet.
She came back to her senses and touched Wen Yi's head.
"I just took care of some things," Li Yan cheered up, "Let's go off the air now."
She removed her hand from Wen Yi, placed it on the table, and bent her eyes.
"I would like to give you a sentence that I just learned a few days ago."
She raised her hand, pointed her index finger to her chest first, and then slid her palm down across her chest.
While making gestures, he changes his mouth shape.
From Wen Yi's angle, she couldn't see the shape of her mouth, but could only see that she seemed to be signing.
After finishing, Li Yan said, "Come on for the college entrance examination!"
Wen Yi understood the last gesture, it was to cheer him up.
The two sat down at the dining table and poured orange juice into the two goblets in front of them.
Li Yan lifted it up and took a sip, and couldn't help but laugh, "It feels like a child pretending to be an adult."
Wen Yi gently clinked glasses with her, making a crisp and pleasant sound, "We can always be children."
After dinner, I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. Someone was playing with fairy wands outside, and golden sparks lit up a small patch of the night sky.
The reflections of the two of them were reflected in the glass. Li Yan secretly glanced at Wen Yi and found that the other party was also looking at him.
"We'll go down and light a few later, and it's time to go to bed when we get back." Wen Yi said.
She raised the corners of her mouth and asked the question of doubt, "Aren't you curious about what the sign language I just said meant?"
Wen Yi raised his eyebrows, "Isn't it 'Come on for the college entrance examination'?"
The sound of firecrackers rang outside the window, crackling away the bad mood.
Li Yan's little finger hooked up the hem of Wen Yi's clothes, and the person in front of him followed her arm and climbed up to her neck.
The breaths briefly connected and then left, leaving a long-lasting warmth in the air, clamoring and tenderly wrapping around the two of them.
She shook her head and said softly:
"Yes... we all have a bright future."

Jing Yu: Stay with me.
Yan Xuan: I have a boyfriend.
Jing Yu: I don’t care.
Yan Xuan:...?
Yan Xuan was busy dealing with the matter of his boyfriend's suspected cheating. When he was so worried, a beautiful woman came to make things worse.
The beautiful beauty Jing Yu said: "I can give you a lot of money."
Yan Xuan: "You mean you want to spend money to be a mistress???"
In the moment of uncertainty, Yan Xuan deleted the conversation from his mind and waved his hand helplessly to let this boring beauty go away quickly.
Unexpectedly, the beauty handed over a contract and seemed to only repeat one sentence.
"Stay with me and I can give you a lot of money."
Yan Xuan: "..."
