Before the first class, the study committee member started to collect the summer homework and handed out the intention forms for the after-school activities.

When Chu Yu handed in his homework, he took a look at Lu Shi's test paper and found that it was no different from his. Lu Shi's test paper was filled with fill-in-the-blanks, but he only wrote two lines of thought for the major questions, or simply drew two auxiliary lines. The whole test paper looked empty.

He suddenly had a new understanding. So it turned out that a prodigy at a certain level and a slacker at a certain level had something in common!

The study committee member shouted angrily, "Hurry up! Hand in the intention forms after you've filled them out!

If you don't, it's time for class! "

The classroom was full of discussion. Zhang Yueshan held a pen and turned to ask Chu Yu, "Student Chu, what did you fill in?

I'm hesitating. Should I choose tennis, fencing, or taekwondo?

I like all of them! "

His gaze fell on Chu Yu's intention form. He was puzzled, "Gardening A?

There's such an option? "

His deskmate had always been at the headquarters, so he knew the inside story, "Gardening is a hidden option. It's not on the list."

Chu Yu signed his name at the bottom of the page and put the pen cap back, "Yes, it's for slacking."

Zhang Yueshan was curious, "What did you choose for the after-school activities?

Trimming the branches and cutting the leaves of the plants? "

"No," Chu Yu explained, "There's a thermostatic botanical garden and a glass greenhouse behind the school field, right? My job is to press a button to activate the watering equipment in the thermostatic botanical garden.

When the equipment detects that there's enough moisture in the air and soil, it will automatically stop running. "

Zhang Yueshan was amazed. He didn't know how to describe it for a long time. In the end, he said, "It's really suitable for slacking!"

Chu Yu was proud. He thought to himself, "Of course, I carefully chose it for myself!"

After collecting the summer homework, the study commissary hurriedly collected the intention forms. When he received the last two, he inadvertently glanced at them — Amazing! Campus Belle Chu filled in A for Gardening, and God Lu filled in B for Gardening. A thermostatic botanical garden and a glass greenhouse. Is it that exciting?

The first class in the morning was mathematics. Chu Yu couldn't understand it, but he didn't want to force himself. He simply took out his comic book and continued reading.

After flipping through two pages, he suddenly thought of something. He put his hand into the table and searched blindly again. In the end, he pulled out a milk candy.

After stuffing it into his mouth and tasting it, Chu Yu frowned. He realized that it wasn't an illusion. This candy didn't have the rich milky fragrance and sweetness that it used to have.

Chu Yu's heart was filled with inexplicable anxiety as he stuffed another piece of fruit candy into his mouth.

In the past, he would have been sick of eating two candies together, but now, he only tasted a little bit of sweetness.

Staring at the two candy wrappers in his hands, Chu Yu was stunned. Did my continuous low fever burn my taste buds?

His good mood from the recovery of his body instantly plummeted to the bottom of the valley.

After being depressed for most of the morning, Chu Yu decided to stop himself from letting his imagination run wild. He comforted himself by telling himself that maybe it was just because of the autonomic nervous system dysfunction that temporarily dulled his taste buds. It would be fine in a few days.

He pinched a piece of candy in his hand and was debating whether to eat it or not. Suddenly, he felt his throat dry and thirsty.

F * ck, why is this feeling so familiar?

It was like a set. At the same time that his throat was dry and itchy, his heart began to beat faster. The blood vessels on his forehead pulsed as if they were going to explode in the next second.

The familiar heat spread all over his body. No, it was even hotter than yesterday. It gave him the illusion that he would be roasted on the spot in the next second!

Chu Yu was almost depressed. He thought that the enemy had retreated, but he didn't expect that they would gather more troops and come back more than 20 hours later!

He Zhihao came to look for Chu Yu after lunch break. He saw him lying on the table, facing the wall. He looked like a flower that had withered.

He knocked on the table twice with his fingertips. "What's wrong? Are you still awake?"

Chu Yu slowly turned his head and said weakly, "Stop knocking. If you have something to say, say it. Leave as soon as you're done."

He Zhihao raised his eyebrows. He knew that this was a young master's temper and couldn't be provoked.

He quickly retracted his hand and said, "Sister Lin asked me to tell you that she liked the gift very much. Thank you for remembering it for so long. Let's play together next time."

He put the small cake in his hand on Chu Yu's table. "We stayed up all night and slept on the boat.

Don't you like sweet things? Sister Lin specially asked the chef to make this cake this morning and asked me to bring it to you. "

Chu Yu was disinterested. "Oh, put it down. You can leave now."

He Zhihao didn't want to leave. He gossiped and asked in a low voice, "By the way, isn't there a rumor that you have a conflict with that Lu Shi?

Is it true?

How did he offend you?

Do you want me to help you find someone to teach him a lesson? "

Chu Yu felt as if lava was flowing through his veins. His breathing was so hot that even he was scared. He Zhihao was still talking nonsense in front of him like a fly. He felt irritated and frowned. "Get lost, get lost. If you stand in front of Lu Shi, you won't live for more than ten seconds. I'll crush you, just like that?

Yes, crush ants. "

His throat was dry and slightly hoarse. He added, "He didn't offend me. It's just that we don't get along well. Don't look for trouble."

He Zhihao shrugged. "Okay, then I'll leave."

"Wait." Chu Yu wrinkled his nose and said in disdain, "Hurry up and change your clothes. You stink. It's giving me a headache."

He Zhihao tugged at his collar and took a deep breath. He was puzzled. "It's more accurate to say that I have the smell of blood on me. I drank too much and fell down in the morning. I didn't even have time to change my clothes after putting on the bandages.

Smell me again. Where does it stink? "

"I don't smell it. Hurry up and leave."

He Zhihao left. Chu Yu was about to lie down again when he saw from the corner of his eye that — Bang!

When did Lu Shi come back to the classroom?

In the end, the cake was divided between Zhang Yueshan and his deskmate. Chu Yu lay down listlessly for the whole afternoon. He had no appetite. He didn't eat dinner or go to the evening self-study session. He went straight back to the dormitory.

Jia Ning Private Dormitory was luxurious. The worst room was a four-person room with a private bathroom.

Chu Yu lived on the fifth floor. It was a luxurious single room. The floor was covered with a light-colored cashmere carpet. He had a large bed, a desk, a storage rack, a wardrobe, and a shoe cabinet. Aunt Lan even placed a pot of cranes in the corner of the balcony.

Chu Yu's limbs softened as he fell onto the bed. He hugged the quilt and fell asleep.

He dreamed in the middle of the night. It was the same dream.

The only difference was that everything had faded into black and white. In a winding alley, Lu Shi looked at him. Bright red blood was flowing down his left arm. It was a glaring red. It was the only color in the dream.

On the other side of the wall, Lu Shi woke up from his dream.

His ears seemed to be filled with the woman's disgusted curses in his dreams. "You filthy bastard with filthy blood flowing in your body!"

Filthy blood.

Lu Shi sneered.

He lay on his back on the bed. His surroundings were quiet. The only sound he could hear was the sound of the central air conditioner's vent.

Lu Shi got off the bed and stood up. He crossed his arms and pulled up the corner of his shirt. He took off his white T-shirt and casually draped it over the back of the chair. Then, he stepped into the bathroom.

A few minutes later, Lu Shi came out of the bathroom with his hair wet. He pulled out a bottle of mineral water from the mini fridge and sat down in front of the desk.

He randomly picked a math competition exercise book from the shelf and opened it.

His fingers were long. He twisted the bottle cap. His knuckles were slightly protruding. They were thin and strong.

He gulped down half the bottle of ice water. Only then did he suppress the fire in his heart.

Lu Shi was used to using a pencil when doing exercises.

There was a rustling sound as the tip of the pen scratched on the paper.

After doing two pages of exercises, Lu Shi stopped and took out a pencil sharpener from the drawer.

The blade was sharp. It shaved off a piece of wood, revealing the black lead wrapped inside.

Lu Shi's hand paused.

Under the white light of the desk lamp, Lu Shi's left wrist, which he usually wore a watch on, was covered with messy thin scars.

Some of the scars were so old that only a faint line was left. Some were still red.

The pencil sharpener moved and finally stopped at the wrist. He used a little force with his right hand. The tip of the knife pierced the cold white skin and cut down. Dark red blood instantly overflowed.

Lu Shi's thin eyelids were drooping. His eyes were bloodshot. His expression was indifferent.
