The moment the starting gun sounded, the sophomore men's 4*100m relay race officially began.

There was basically no suspense in the competition. Unlike the women's team, the boys' team of Class 2 and Class 6 did not make any mistakes during the relay race. Chang Le took the lead in taking over the last baton. As a result, Class 6 and Class 2 of Senior High School naturally won.

Since Chang Le was the first to start the last leg, the overall situation was basically decided at that time. Tang Xu followed Qin Zheng and symbolically shouted a few times to Chang Le, "Come on, Chang Le, come on," and then watched Chang Le rush past his class.

.

Tang Xu stood up from his seat, took a bottle of mineral water, and prepared to pick up Chang Le at the finish line. He left the area where his class was and walked along the edge of the playground to the podium. It didn't take long before he saw Chang Le's figure.

Chang Le had just received the purple period badge from the physical education teacher, with a cheerful smile on his face.

Tang Xu originally wanted to walk over directly, but he stopped because he saw a girl greeting Chang Le.

That was Chen Qingrou, who had just finished the badminton match in the laboratory building and was about to return to the class area.

The two of them are classmates and have just finished their respective competitions. Of course when they meet, they have to say hello and chat for a while.

Tang Xu stood far away and didn't hear what they said, but Chang Le and Chen Qingrou didn't say a few words before Chen Qingrou left.

Chang Le stood in the shade of the tree, staring at Chen Qingrou in a daze as she walked away.

The game was over. He could have returned with Chen Qingrou along the same route, but for some unknown reason, he did not choose to go side by side with Chen Qingrou because he had to wait for the other three to gather.

Tang Xu appeared behind Chang Le and patted him on the back. Chang Le was obviously shocked and frightened.

"Does it look good?"

Tang Xu asked jokingly, but he was not laughing.

Tang Xu's expression was serious, even a bit serious.

"good."

Chang Le's answer was very perfunctory. The two of them stood under the tree. Before Tang Xu handed the mineral water bottle in his hand to Chang Le, he unscrewed the bottle cap for him, which can be said to be very considerate.

Chang Le took the mineral water bottle, raised his head and took a big sip, squinting at the playground ahead where the heat wave was rolling in at noon.

"It seems that Brother Chu, you really guessed it this time."

Chang Le didn't smile either, the expression on his face was exactly the same as Tang Xu's.

During their long time together, Tang Cu and Chang Le had many unwritten tacit understandings and habits.

For example, if you want to talk about serious matters, you have to make a phone call.

For example, when things are serious, you can't joke around.

As for the current atmosphere, the two of them understand each other without saying too much.

"After all, you already gave me a hint by playing the harmonica in the cafeteria of Lin Chumo's house yesterday. I thought about it seriously for half a night before I figured out the ultimate puzzle. That is, about what you like.

Who are people after all?”

Tang Xu looked into the distance while gathering together the fragments of clues that had been entangled for many days.

"On the first day when you told me that you liked someone in the school cafeteria, through the subtle changes in your expression, I determined that the girl must be one of the girls at the table not far away who was eating. At that time, there were a total of

There are five girls, namely Luo Ruo, Qin Zheng, Zheng Qian, Li Yueying and Chen Qingrou. I first thought that the person you liked was Luo Ruo. After all, she was sitting next to you. We had played games together before.

The reason for long-term love makes sense. Because I know your character, you will maintain a serious attitude towards important people or things, so I quickly eliminated Qin Zheng who had just transferred to another school. Later I also

I think the person you like may be Li Yueying. After all, Li Yueying has a similar personality to yours. When the four of us went out to play together before, your personalities were also very compatible. Including Zheng Qian, you have a common shining point, both in sports.

With outstanding talents and talents, it is not impossible that you will like Zheng Qian who sheds her youthful sweat through sports..."

When Tang Xu said this, his tone paused slightly.

"No matter what, I never thought that the person you like would be Chen Qingrou. If I hadn't been unable to sleep last night and accidentally clicked on a violin song she shared while scrolling through Moments, maybe I wouldn't have even gone there. Thinking of her. That violin music is exactly the same as the ringtone you changed to your mobile phone not long ago. Of course, if it is just these, it is not enough to make a final decision. After all, you may also be on a whim and simply think that the violin music sounds good. First of all, I searched online and found that most of the playing methods for that piece of music are piano. The violin piece that Chen Qingrou shared on Moments that day was recorded by herself, which has a special meaning. Secondly, you were in the cafeteria yesterday You made a gesture of playing a harmonica to me. You want me to remember why you chose to give you a harmonica as a birthday gift, because you told me before that you like this kind of music very much and have also thought about learning an instrument. But If you had really loved music and playing musical instruments since you were a child, your father would have sent you to music classes at that time, but obviously you did not have this idea at that time."

The wind was very noisy today, causing the thoughts of the male high school students to float around like messy papers.

"Because I admired Chen Qingrou, who could play various musical instruments, I naturally started to like the music she liked. A person's preferences are not easy to change. The change from passionate music to pure music must be because of her."

"Brother Chu, you are so good. I know you will guess it if I give you some hints. After all, we have known each other for so long. You know everything about me, even the card my dad opened for me. You know the password of the bank card where you put the pocket money you earn. Maybe that’s why I think it doesn’t matter even if you know it, but now I regret it a bit.”

"I can pretend not to know, or I can not tell anyone."

"There is no airtight wall in this world. Sooner or later, others will know about it."

Chang Le raised his head and drank the remaining water in the bottle, then threw the empty bottle into the trash can nearby.

It's just that such a simple throwing action in the past failed today.

The empty bottle bounced off the edge of the trash can and fell to the ground beside it.

Tang Xu turned to look at Chang Le. Chang Le was two centimeters taller than him and looked very tall.

Tang Xu opened his lips slightly and wanted to say something, but he stopped.

He patted Chang Le on the shoulder. Although the two of them were of the same age, Chang Le had always regarded Tang Chu as his elder brother over the years, and Tang Chu knew this very well.

"Congratulations on winning first place. You're really handsome. I'm going back first. Qin Zheng may have been stealing my snacks while I was away."

Tang Xu had a slight smile on his lips, and Chang Le immediately relaxed and responded with the same smile.

Tang Xu took the first step, while Chang Le remained standing where he was.

After a while, Chang Le looked down at the empty bottle on the ground, then took a few steps back, picked it up and stuffed it into the trash can at close range.

On the way back to the class area alone, Tang Xu was not in a happy mood. After guessing who Chang Le's crush was, he was a little smug at first, but he saw the look on Chang Le's face when he mentioned Chen Qingrou. With a subtle expression, Tang Xu felt that maybe he shouldn't mention this topic.

Chang Le is no longer the chubby little guy who followed him and giggled. He has his own ideas.

Tang Xu also had no experience in relationships, so he couldn't give Chang Le any advice. Finally, he wanted to ask Chang Le if he would choose to confess to Chen Qingrou, but he didn't ask after all.

This is not his business, Chang Le will make his own choice sooner or later.

And now all Tang Xu can do is swallow this matter in his stomach and not mention it to anyone.
