XX, September. The beginning of the new semester.

Zhong Yu parked his bike in the carport. Suddenly there was a banging sound from the side, he raised his eyebrows and faintly swept, a girl stood up there stupidly, her hands holding her bike, her face at a loss. He pulled the corner of his mouth, then he heard someone call out to him, “Zhong Yu, let’s go, the teachers are entering the classroom.”

He withdrew his eyes, and the person suddenly turned his head, “Yo, isn’t that Zhou Mo?”

He listened quietly.

“I’ve heard that her science scores aren’t on par with yours, girls who are so good at science, it’s a shame how she didn’t come to our class.”

Zhong Yu entered the classroom in silence. Their classroom was right opposite the carport. The language teacher was reading Li Shangyin’s “Jin Se” from the podium:

Jin瑟無端五十弦，一弦一柱思华年。 Zhuangsheng Xiao dream of butterflies, Wangdi spring heart to cuckoo.

The moon of the ocean is bright with tears, and the sun of the blue field is warm with smoke. This love can wait to become a memory, but at that time it was already lost.

He turned his head slightly, a thin figure outside the window hurriedly ran past, ponytail swinging in the wind. He vaguely saw the beads of sweat at the tip of her nose, and unconsciously pulled the corner of his mouth.

The old class asked him to go to the office after class and organize the information. When he went to the office, he coincidentally ran into her again. It was just that she was slightly hanging her head down, her eyebrows faint. The English teacher wanted to say something.

The two classes share an English teacher, the teacher saw him, as if remembering something, “Zhong Yu just happens to send this test paper down.” He walks over to take it, and with a glance of his eyes, he sees the test paper held in the teacher’s hand.

“Zhou Mo, what’s wrong with you lately? Look at this listening done, it’s not your level at all.”

“I’m sorry, teacher.” Her voice was soft, vaguely translucent with a sense of powerlessness, depressingly dull.

“Well, you go back, don’t think so much.” The teacher said in a serious tone.

Zhou Mo turned around in a trance, his face was clear and cold, his footsteps were hurried, he didn’t even notice the person in front of him, Zhong Yu was just holding a stack of photocopied information, Zhou Mo bumped straight over. “Sorry.” She said softly, her eyes not even looking at her.

He could see her every day when they went out for exercises. She always stood alone in er, rarely chatting with the people around her. Zhong Yu recalled the debate in the first year of high school, that will be her spirited, like a layer of light around the body, warm. Just now she, in the end which is the real her?

He never thought that one day, she would take the initiative to find her. When a completely unexpected love letter was put into his hands, he was the first to feel that feeling of his heart racing when he was always calm and collected. Surrounded by so many cool eyes staring straight at them, he looked at her up close, the white face is still calm, the pair of ink-like eyes, he remembered all his life, just that the eyes flowed with too many emotions that he had not yet come to read and understand.

Later, he lost in English for the first time, the same as her last time, English listening was a big failure.

How could there be anything left to listen to?

Soon his friends knew about it, and couldn’t help but tease, “Zhong Yu, what did the talented girl’s love letter say? Reveal a little.” The only thing he could do was to laugh bitterly, that letter was twisted up in the washing machine before he had a chance to read it.

He thought it was time to talk to her personally. But how could he have imagined that he would never see her again since then?

Fate has come full circle, and when they met again a few years later, she was already Zhou Zhi’s girlfriend and had changed her name to Jane Mo. There is a sentence to summarize it: life ah really a pot of dog blood.

He looked coldly at her eyebrows, the original over so many years he still remembered her in his heart, but she? Not ever met in general and he greeted.

Disturbed a pool of spring water, but drew away. How can he Zhong Yu do not want a result?

Back then, his best friend the whole thing is involved, love letter incident they can always remember it? Since the protagonist of the incident is back, then it should always end.

Zhong Yu in hearing that bet, stunned for a moment, finally agreed. Is it because he is unwilling or is it because he is expecting something else?

He did not know what exactly happened to Zhou Mo, but he knew exactly what he wanted.

Zhou Zhi was his childhood playmate, but he still firmly dug in, well without hesitation, completely and utterly.

Zhou Mo had indeed changed a lot in the past few years, seemingly like a different person, with thorns erected all over his body, full of wariness towards him, and at first he had touched an unknown number of walls.

He can see, Jane Mo and Zhou Zhi before the feelings are not deep, Zhou Zhi has money rain this door to door, the Zhou family is not likely to accept Jane Mo.

Zhou Zhi in the end can not calm down, see Jane Mo and him together, will force Jane Mo to accompany her to attend the birthday banquet, do not know Jane Mo this person nature, the stronger you, the more stubborn she is. Ultimately, it will only push her farther and farther away.

Zhong Yu know that she wants to participate in the “three to the countryside” activities, and therefore also found an opportunity to participate in it, as the entry experience it. As expected, this time the three countryside activities, really played a vital role.

Soon, they were together.

He slowly got to know her, shedding the youthfulness of his high school days and becoming more sensitive. She is very good at taking care of people, still loves to study, and spends more time drilling in books every day than spending time with him as her boyfriend. Getting along peacefully, he had gradually forgotten about that bet.

He never asked what happened in his senior year.

year what really happened, memorized what that letter really said. Because before it was too late, she knew that their relationship was nothing more than a bet between him.

No anger, no fight, she just silently left.

Zhong Yu did not like because he won the bet, but more frustration in his heart. He went to find her, but found that she has long gone to the field internship. The original is really gone, only to put down the school.

Zhong Yu realized at that moment that he had broken a woman’s heart, completely and utterly.

Five years later, she came back, with a child. When she smiled and he greeted, a faint call “Zhong Bureau -” he suddenly understood a mood: pain without words.

Finally understand, he won the bet, but lost the whole heart.

His sentence, Jian Mo, let’s start over. But never said it to her, because she was no longer the same as she was back then. Perhaps it is the relationship of being a mother, the toughness she exudes always inexplicably makes her heart ache.

His daughter, ah, quirky, often wonderful words, people can not help but love. It was just that he had been missing for a full five years.

Five years ……

He owed too much.
