The September sunshine poured freely on the gate of No. 1 Middle School in City A, and the rolling heat wave did not affect me at all - Su Jiaoyang was full of joy and expectation. A few good buddies and I were arm-in-arm, talking and laughing, holding our beloved basketball tightly in our hands, and couldn't wait to start a new chapter in high school life.
In the midst of the fun, I accidentally bumped into a figure. At that moment, the world seemed to suddenly become quiet. I apologized hurriedly and hurriedly helped him pick up the books scattered on the floor.
When I raised my head and met his eyes, what a pair of eyes they were! It is cold and deep, like the bright stars in the cold night, making people want to explore its secrets. His skin was so fair that it was almost transparent, seeming to emit a soft glow under the sunlight. The slender eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, seemingly hiding endless thoughts. The high bridge of his nose added a bit of three-dimensionality to his profile, while his tight lips revealed a touch of stubbornness and alienation.
"I'm sorry!" I was filled with guilt, with a bit of urgency in my voice.
He glanced at me indifferently and said in a calm tone: "It doesn't matter." The voice was like a clear spring in the mountains, cold and sweet, but seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost, keeping people away from thousands of miles away.
"My name is Su Jiaoyang, and you?" I eagerly wanted to break the slightly awkward atmosphere, with the most sincere smile on my face, hoping to get closer to him.
"Lin Xingchen." He answered concisely and clearly. After speaking, he reached out to take the book I handed over, turned around and left in a hurry. His slender back looked slightly lonely, which made me feel an inexplicable pity in my heart.
When I walked into the classroom, I unconsciously searched the crowd with my eyes. When I saw him sitting by the window, I felt an indescribable joy in my heart. I walked over to him and sat down next to him without hesitation, and said excitedly: "What a coincidence, we are not only classmates, but also deskmates!"
He just raised his eyes slightly, glanced at me lightly, nodded slightly, and then moved his eyes back to the book in his hand. That book seemed to be his entire world, and I was not allowed to enter it yet.
I tried to melt the ice around him with my enthusiasm, and took the initiative to greet the classmates around me. My laughter echoed in the classroom. However, out of the corner of my eye, I always involuntarily drift towards the young man next to me who is as quiet as a mystery. Every subtle expression of his, every movement of turning the pages of the book, made me particularly concerned.
The class bell rang loudly and the teacher walked into the classroom. I tried hard to concentrate on listening, but my thoughts still drifted to Lin Xingchen from time to time. He sat upright and stared at the blackboard with concentration and seriousness in his eyes. The sun shone through the window and fell on his hair, outlining a faint golden outline. The picture was so beautiful that it was heart-warming.
During this class, I spent my time in the teacher's explanation and curiosity about Lin Xingchen. I know that high school life will no longer be ordinary because of Lin Xingchen's appearance. I longed to get to know him, to enter his world, to be his friend, and even... More.
