With the ability to transform, I am very popular on campus

Thinking too much won't help her now, so she gave up thinking and turned to thinking about how to relax these two days.

Gu Ruxi's family went to the restaurant now. After clearing up some misunderstandings and gaining the understanding of their parents, they decided to go out for a big meal.

It's been almost a year since the last time the family was this happy.

Although Gu Ruxi looked a lot like his cousin Gu Yuting now, after careful consideration, Gu Ruxi finally decided to return to her former self.

Cousin definitely doesn't want her to become what she thought before.

As for the cousins ​​and aunts, I can't see them for the time being, otherwise the pregnant cousin may be very frightened when she sees her, and even affect the fetus in the womb.

Gu Ruxi got everything she wanted, and she felt that she should do something to repay Luo Minghao.

After returning from the big meal, she has been thinking about how to repay him.

A physical promise is impossible, impossible in every way.Luo Minghao has a normal sexual orientation, but he seems to have nothing to do with girls.

What can the girl do?

She suddenly felt that maybe she could help him solve this troublesome problem now.

At the end of the day, the three of them felt as if a century had passed, and many issues were undergoing qualitative changes. Generally speaking, the direction was good.

But what they didn't know was that there was one person who had a very difficult day because of the three of them.

If Luo Minghao's grades before this midterm exam were as stable as Mount Everest, then this person's grades can be said to be as stable as Mount K233.But most people will only look at Mount Everest, and few people know that it is only [-] meters shorter than it.

However, he is only number two in name this time, because there are three people ranked first this time, and according to the school's ranking method, he can only be ranked fourth.

But this fourth, not only did not get the praise he deserved, but it made his life a little worse than death.

His name is Cheng Lin, and he is a student in the class next to Luo Minghao's, that is, Class One (Three) of Senior High School. He is the No.1 student in this class.But what is different from Luo Minghao is that he has been ranked No.2 in the whole grade since he entered school.

Chapter 20 Years Second

Cheng Lin has a nickname called "Wannian Er Er". It's not because he was always ranked behind Luo Minghao in high school. Someone started calling him this nickname as early as elementary school.

The reason is very simple, he is one breath away in almost every exam, in other words, he is always a little bit behind the No.1 in the exam.Because of this, more and more people call him "the second child of ten thousand years".

In fact, he has the ability to take the first place in the exam.

In the beginning, he was really just short of breath, but in fact, he had already made up for it in junior high school.The source of the problem is to make up for the changes that occurred after each previous exam.

At first, his parents could tolerate small differences, so they didn't feel much, and the family felt very harmonious.But on the morning of the final exam of the next semester of the fourth grade, he just walked to the door of the house when he came home, and found something was wrong at home.

Through the door, he could clearly hear the arguing inside.

He didn't know what was going on inside. After a while, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps getting closer and closer. He hurriedly hid on the upper floor, and then found his father came out angrily, closed the door heavily, and walked downstairs. walk quickly.

He hid for several minutes before pretending to have just returned, and opened the door with the key.

What he saw was his mother crying on the table.

He didn't know how to spend the days that followed.He only remembered seeing his father again, already in court.

In the case of his mother's argument, he followed his mother.

Later, he learned from others that his father had found a mistress, and then he was caught and raped by his mother in a nearby hotel on the first night of his exam.He was asleep at the time, so he didn't notice it at all.It is said that he took the exam all morning, and they also quarreled all morning.

Since then, his mother has taken care of him alone, and has no intention of remarrying.

This is not the point, the point is that her attitude towards Cheng Lin has changed drastically since then.In the past, she didn't have any strict requirements on Cheng Lin's grades, even if she couldn't get the first place in the exam, it didn't matter.However, from then on, she seemed to be crazy and demanded that Cheng Lin must take the first place in the exam to win her praise.

It's a pity that he is so close every time.

The consequence of this is that every time his mother learns about the grades, she will yell at him, and whether he is hungry or not, he will not be able to eat the next meal.

But Cheng Lin didn't know the reason at that time, but he just couldn't do it. It wasn't until he entered junior high school, the final exam of the first year of junior high school, that he finally figured out something, and finally got the first place.There is usually a parent meeting for the final exam, so his mother naturally made a splash at the parent meeting.

That was the first time he saw his mother acting like a nouveau riche in front of others, that smile was so distorted that it made him feel terrified.

This was also the only time he saw her like this, because after that, he never dared to take the first place in the exam, he was afraid of his mother's behavior.

If other people knew that it was just for this reason that he took the second exam every time after that, they would definitely not believe it.But he is really working towards this position, not No. 1.

What chilled him the most was that his mother only participated in this parent-teacher meeting. When he didn't get the first place in the exam, he wouldn't attend it at all.

At first, many people were amazed at his No.2 performance, but this is an exam after all, not a game, and No.1 naturally attracted more attention than No.2.Over time, he is no longer the focus of people's eyes.People's attention is always focused on the strong person.

Naturally, no one cares about the fact that he can only eat two unsatisfactory meals on the day of each grade.

Although the time between two meals is only a few hours, usually he endures it for a maximum of two hours, and his stomach is very hungry.The empty feeling in his stomach left him limp on the bed, unable to concentrate.

In this case, he felt that instead of being so hungry, he might as well find something to do and divert his attention.

So, thinking in the pangs of hunger, he finally picked up the paintbrush.

Over the years, whenever he has free time, he will paint, rain or shine.By the summer vacation when he graduated from the third year of junior high school, his painting skills had been honed to be comparable to professional painters.After endless practice and finally reached his satisfaction, he finally decided to draw an original work of his own.

His grade in the senior high school entrance examination was also second, and similarly, even though he was second in the city in the senior high school entrance examination this time, his mother still scolded him and didn't let him eat lunch after learning the result in the morning of the grade.Against the unbearable hunger, he started to paint as usual.

He felt that he was the same as the little match girl.The little match girl has beautiful fantasies by lighting matches, and he draws to divert his attention and resist the annoying hunger.

It turned out that it took an afternoon, and the theme of the painting he drew was basically very close to the little match girl.It's just that he put his own elements in it.

In the painting he drew, the girl was sitting at the desk with the lamp on in the dark bedroom doing her homework, showing a helpless expression, thinking about the beautiful family she once had.A woman stood outside the bedroom door, but the shadow reflected on the wall behind her was a horned demon.

This painting made him feel hungry, and he fell directly on the bed after painting.No wonder, from composition to line drawing to coloring, such a complicated work can be completed in one afternoon, which is impressive.

But his mother didn't think so.

In order to prevent accidents, he did not and did not dare to frame this painting. Instead, he chose to carefully fold the drawing paper in half and seal it in an aluminum box with a lock that was only the size of 16-motif paper.This box is specially used to hold these paintings.And he also considered a lot about the hiding place, but he was not at ease.

In the end, he chose to hide in the pile of winter clothes in the closet in summer and autumn, and the opposite is true for winter and spring.

This midterm exam, if Xu Jiawen and Gu Ruxi hadn't exploded at the same time, he would have sat firmly in the second position, because the person behind him was 20 points behind him.

Not surprisingly, his mother scolded him again, but this time harder than before.

"Why are there three firsts this time?" After scolding the ugly words, his mother started to get angry.

Cheng Lin didn't answer her question, because as long as she answered, she would have countless arguments to refute her point of view.

"What exactly do you want to do? Go back to the second place in the exam, and this time you will be transferred to the fourth place. Are you satisfied?"

Cheng Lin still chose to remain silent.

Cheng's mother was so angry that she slapped him with her right hand.

"Are you dumb?" she growled.

Cheng Lin didn't expect that his mother would do it directly. This kind of thing had never happened before.

"I have worked so hard to raise you to such an age, so you can't win me over in your studies?"

Cheng Lin is used to the typical paternalistic thinking.He has long since given up on these fallacies, and as long as the bottom line is not touched, he will remain indifferent.But suddenly being slapped like this, the left side of his face felt a little hot and uncomfortable.

"Tell me, how many paintings did you draw in the time you didn't study?"

"draw?"

"You think I didn't see it? Do you think I'm blind?"

"..." Cheng Lin realized that he couldn't pretend anymore, and said immediately, "I don't know how much I have drawn."

"Where is it hidden?"

"I can't tell you." Cheng Lin said resolutely, touching the still stinging left cheek with his left hand.

"I knew you wouldn't tell me." Mother Cheng sneered, "I sold your painting for scrap this morning."

"Impossible!" Hearing what she said, Cheng Lin cried out anxiously.

"Don't believe me? You go to your bedroom to have a look?"

Cheng Lin hurried to the bedroom, opened the closet, and rummaged through the pile of clothes he wore in winter.As a result, he still touched the cold box that was familiar to the touch.

"Oops!" The moment Cheng Lin touched the box, he realized that he was too impulsive.

Cheng's mother walked into the bedroom with heavy steps, saw his hands still stretched out in the closet, and sneered, "This is called self-reporting, right?"

"Give it to me."

Cheng Lin couldn't give these paintings to his mother no matter what.But now the situation is simply hopeless.

He gritted his teeth and made an amazing move.

He withdrew the box containing his paintings, and the clothes pressing the box slipped to the ground with his tug.Immediately afterwards, he hugged the box tightly, and ran out in a hurry on his slippers, leaving Cheng's mother alone in a daze.

Chapter 21 Depository

Although summer has not officially entered yet, the rise in temperature is the general trend.According to the experience of previous years, after several rounds of temperature fluctuations, the highest temperature in Haguang City will hardly be lower than 30°C before autumn.

At present, Haguang City is experiencing the third round of warming, and the weather at night has begun to look a little hot.People walking by the Qingxi River at night have started wearing short sleeves and shorts, and some even fanned themselves with cattail fans.

Cheng Lin almost ran to the Qingxi River in one breath, after all, his place of residence is not far from the river.

Holding the box in his hand, he didn't know what to do at this moment.

For him, the paintings in the box are the few memories that make him feel happy in these years.But fate was so against him that he almost destroyed it because of his own stupidity.

Not knowing what to do next, he could only walk along the river, back and forth, not knowing when it would end.

After Xu Jiawen finished dinner at home, she was still deeply impressed by what Luo Minghao's father said before.

Perhaps, she really thought too much, and instead let herself fall into an emotional quagmire, unable to move.

"I should treat my relationship with Luo Minghao in a normal way."

Secretly made up her mind, after resting for a while, she mustered up her courage and went downstairs to find Luo Minghao again.

Before this, Luo Minghao had also been thinking. He felt that he had become a little nervous because of these strange things, which made him unable to calmly think about these most basic issues.

"I'm really, a complete idiot..."

Just when he was thinking this way, there were three familiar knocks on the door.This is Xu Jiawen's habit of knocking on the door all the time. No matter the situation is urgent or not, she always knocks on the door like this.

"Let's go out for a walk."

"OK."

Luo Minghao didn't say much, there is no need to talk so much nonsense at this time, the two of them have always been like this, no matter what quarrel happened before, it's fine for them to go home and have a quiet time.This is probably the so-called laughing away all grievances, right?

He unexpectedly discovered that his sense of rejection towards Xu Jiawen was weaker than before.

Finally, it is much more comfortable.

After they came to the river, the two finally opened up the chatterbox. Xu Jiawen had a lot to ask Luo Minghao.

And after gaining mutual understanding, they chatted without any distracting thoughts.

"Let's not talk about the matter between us, is the matter with Gu Ruxi settled?"

"Ah...it's basically settled, but...she hasn't contacted me yet, and I don't know the current situation of their family."

"Really? Then what will she plan to do in the future?"

"In the beginning, she wanted to strangle herself after completing the sexual transformation, and reproduce her cousin..."

"He really thinks so?" Xu Jiawen asked in surprise, "Then you shouldn't have agreed..."

"I persuaded her, but I don't know if she changed her mind at that time, the ability was activated, and there is no possibility of withdrawal..."

In fact, Luo Minghao couldn't let go of Gu Ruxi, and felt that it was necessary to go to her tomorrow to confirm his thoughts.

"I'll go find her with you tomorrow." Xu Jiawen suggested.

"Are you serious?"

"Ah."

"Well, with your precedent here, you have to persuade her well."

After discussing about Gu Ruxi, the two of them seemed to have no other topics to discuss.

They began to look across the river.At this time, the golden crescent moon straddled the sky, emitting bright moonlight, scattered on the river.The surface of the river was sparkling, and it seemed to be dotted with stars. They hadn't seen this scene for a long time.

"Look... does that person look familiar?" Suddenly, Xu Jiawen pointed to the front and asked.

Luo Minghao looked in the direction she pointed, and what he saw was a figure wearing slippers, holding something tightly in his hands, pacing by the river.He widened his eyes, trying to see the man clearly with the help of the slightly dim moonlight.

Luo Minghao knew him, because since he entered high school, except for the first exam where the seat was randomly arranged, he sat behind himself in every exam.

When he confirmed the other party's identity, the other party also noticed them.
