The night is as cool as water.

But no matter how cold the night is, it cannot withstand the coldness of the human heart.

"She actually, actually!" An extremely sad voice sounded at the door of Yucai Small Store.

Cui Yu took a sip of Coke and his body shivered: "Brothers, I'm so cold."

Wang Longlong: "Yuzi, the Coke with ice you drank must be cold!"

His words interrupted Cui Yu's miserable atmosphere and brought his misery to a halt.

Guo Kunnan stood opposite them, holding a bowl of fried tofu and wondering: "Yuzi, after watching so many movies, I thought you had already figured out your life, why are you still looking forward to love?"

Cui Yu: "Nonsense, the more dirty I see, the more I look forward to pure love."

He abandoned his good brother Meng Gui for that sweet-smelling girl. He never imagined that he would end up like this.

He was so unwilling: "What would it be like if that girl didn't have a son?"

Guo Kunnan offers advice: "You can pretend she doesn't have it."

Shan Kaiquan watched the fun and marveled: "You are quite innocent?"

Cui Yu straightened his chest: "If love hadn't been heartbreaking, how could I have been in such pain?"

Wang Longlong concluded: "You are beating your chest now just because you haven't met a better girl."

Cui Yu immediately retorted: "You're right, I'm actually very loyal to love."

Although he usually looks very slutty and is a famous libertine in Class 8, in fact, Cui Yu thinks of himself as an affectionate man in his heart.

He has liked Jiang Yanan since the first year of high school, and he still liked Jiang Yanan until a few days ago. Even if he encountered countless competitors during this period, he never gave up.

In terms of conscious affection, it is comparable to Yan Tianpeng who likes Lu Qiqi.

Wang Longlong asked: "Really? How loyal?"

Cui Yulai was angry: "Special!"

However, in order to prove his loyalty to love, he said: "This emotional failure made me decide not to fall in love with any girl again this year."

"Even though she likes me very much."

Wang Longlong: "Even Zhou Jinglan?"

Zhou Jinglan is a girl who is in the first grade of high school. She has a very good appearance. She once posted a few photos in Li Yi Bar and received numerous praises. She is a "mini version of Internet celebrity" in this era, but her influence is limited to the Internet, even in the fourth middle school.

Not many students know about her.

If it weren't for Wang Longlong's excellent intelligence ability, this figure would have been missed.

Cui Yu was expressionless: "I said, even if a girl likes me again, I will not fall in love with her."

"Okay, Brother Yu is really awesome." Wang Longlong thinks Cui Yu is really a man.

Cui Yu: "By the way, who is Zhou Jinglan you just mentioned?"

When he asked, Guo Kunnan and Shan Kaiquan who were present did not know.

This is how it is in high school. Many people only know their classmates and the famous figures in their grade, but don't know anything about other grades.

Wang Longlong: "Girls who are in the first year of high school in our school, you can go to Tieba to search."

"Okay, wait for me."

After leaving these words, Cui Yu opened the Tieba forum, searched for the name mentioned by Wang Longlong, and then saw Zhou Jinglan's school uniform photo.

It was a photo with a hazy filter, which made her appearance and temperament full of the charm of a hundred years ago, as if she had stepped out of that era.

Cui Yu silently collected the post.

He said: "Zhou Jinglan can do it."

…

Night, half past eleven.

Huang Yuzhu's clothes were stained with mud. He asked for leave from studying tonight and went to the construction site.

Originally, his task was to study, and the task of making money should not be entrusted to him, but Jiang Ning revealed this job to him. There are not many opportunities like this in life, and if you miss it, it will be gone.

At night, Huang Yuzhu held a strong flashlight in his left hand and pushed his bicycle through the dark and damp alley with his left wrist and right hand.

There was sewage flowing across the ground. I don't know where the drainage pipe was broken, but no one repaired it.

He walked through the alley and looked at the stairs. There were two battery cars parked there. The battery cars parked here could avoid being exposed to wind and rain.

But such a good spot was occupied by someone else, and his and other neighbors' vehicles could only park outside.

However, even if the seat here was not occupied, Huang Yuzhu still did not dare to stop.

When his parents' battery car was parked before, it was pushed out of the stairs by the family on the first floor, and the car fell into the sewage.

For this reason, Huang Yuzhu's parents had a quarrel with the family on the first floor. Since then, their family's water supply has often been cut off.

It was later discovered that it was the family on the first floor who secretly opened the iron cover on the ground and screwed on their water valve in order to retaliate.

This kind of thing is not a big deal, but the sudden cutoff of water supply is very disgusting. In the end, the police were called to stop the retaliation on the first floor.

Facing such a bad neighbor, unless you are a bigger jerk than him and respond to violence with violence, it will be difficult to solve the problem.

Even for those middle-class families, most of them have no choice but to move when they encounter similar problems. If they want to completely cure the problem, they can only move. After all, in this society, it is illegal to use violence if you don't have extraordinary skills.

What's more, an honest man like Huang Yuzhu no longer dares to park his car at the stairwell in order to avoid being retaliated against.

Huang Yuzhu parked the car by the alley and went upstairs quietly.

The stair sensor light was broken. Huang Yuzhu's home was on the second floor. It didn't take much foot strength to climb a few stairs. He remembered that some time ago, Shan Xiao asked him for the secret of long-distance running, and Huang Yuzhu generously explained it to him.

Shan Xiao also mentioned that if you encounter some troublesome things in life, you can talk to him and maybe he will have a solution.

Huang Yuzhu laughed, what can ordinary students do?

Telling it out will only increase your worries.

Huang Yuzhu pushed open the door, but the darkness he imagined did not appear. He was greeted by a middle-aged woman in simple clothes and her direct eyes.

"Mom, haven't you slept yet?" Huang Yuzhu smiled.

Yuzhu's mother said in a stiff tone: "Why did I call your class teacher the night I came back and found out that you took leave today? Where did you go to play when you were covered in dust?"

Huang Yuzhu answered honestly: "I went to the construction site to move bricks, the construction site of Changqingye in our urban area!"

As she finished speaking, Yuzhu's mother scolded her: "Yuzhu, you are going to school. Your current task is just to study hard and let your parents take care of making money."

Speaking later, Yuzhu's mother sounded extremely angry: "We save money to send you to school because we hope you can get into a good university. If you don't have enough money, please tell us!"

Huang Yuzhu was startled. He didn't expect his wife's reaction to be so big.

He quickly defended himself: "There is no teacher in the self-study class tonight, so it doesn't really matter whether you go or not."

"If you don't let me go, I won't go tomorrow, Mom!"

Yuzhu’s mother yelled: “Don’t call me mom!”

"Mom!" Huang Yuzhu was anxious!

"Don't call me mom! Didn't you hear?!"

Huang Yuzhu quickly took out the money he earned and put it on the table: "Okay, I won't go there in the future, but you can keep the money I earned today."

The hundred dollar bills he took out were scattered all over the table.

Yuzhu's mother was stunned: "You earned it all?"

Huang Yuzhu: "Yes, I worked from 6pm to 11pm, and I was paid 1,500 yuan."

Yuzhu's mother's expression changed. She had worked hard for a month, working from dawn to dusk, and only earned 3,000 yuan...

The anger on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by peace: "Call me mom."

"Son, then again, although studying is important, studying is also to find a good job in the future. It's just this time, and it won't be the same next time."

After finishing speaking, Yuzhu's mother asked tentatively: "By the way, son, where did you find this job? Can your parents go work?"

…

Wednesday, early morning.

As winter gradually sets in, the sun rises later and later, and it becomes increasingly necessary to overcome laziness in getting up.

Xue Yuantong opened the door and saw the deserted morning. The scent of cakes wafted from the next door. It was rich and attractive. Xue Yuantong knew the source of the scent.

Chu Chu is making breakfast.

Unfortunately, Xue Yuantong and Jiang Ning now eat at the small dining table of No. 4 Middle School every day, leaving Chu Chu alone.

After Xue Yuantong washed up, she applied some ointment given to her by Jiang Ning on her face and patted her smooth face gently.

After cleaning up and settling everything, she ran next door to find Jiang Ning.

It turned out to be empty.

She stood at the door of Jiang Ning's house, thought for a moment, and concluded: "I must have gone to Chu Chu's house to eat it secretly!"
