Cheng Mo said "goodbye" to Shen Daoyi at the door of Teacher Shen's house. Shen Daoyi held Cheng Mo's cheeks in his hands, kissed his forehead, and said softly: "Good night."

Cheng Mo turned around and walked towards the base. The moonlight outside the window shone through the glass on the long corridor. He didn't hear the door closing for a long time. This made Cheng Mo feel that the air was getting heavier. He didn't look back and walked towards the door of the base with steady steps. , enter the password, press the fingerprint, and the electronic lock makes a light chirp, like the chirping of cicadas at midnight.

Cheng Mo opened the steel security door, but his heart was sucked away by a certain hole. Just like when he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he stood on the balcony and looked up at the stars. The vague unknown sucked his heart away.

Cheng Mo closed the door.

There was also a gentle slamming of the door in the corridor.

Like a sigh.

Cheng Mo didn't study the questions that night, maybe because of alcohol, maybe because of Shen Daoyi's last smile. Cheng Mo lay on the bed, looked at the bed board, and was in a daze for a long time.

Monday, May 18, 2020, morning.

The bell rang for the second period. Shen Youyi announced the end of class. Then she glanced at the red banner "Twenty days until the college entrance examination" and walked off the podium. Now she is not a class teacher, and the teaching pressure is not great. Cheng Mo, the student she cares about most in school, has been recommended to Tsinghua University, so Shen Youyi is not under much pressure.

However, when Shen Youyi walked out of the classroom, she seemed to hear the students sitting at the door mention Cheng Mo's name again. Shen Youyi paused for a moment, and it was difficult to ask. Just yesterday, she and her father were talking about Cheng Mo. The quarrel ended unhappily, and she finally returned home without even having dinner.

Shen Youyi didn't know why her relationship with her father had become so estranged. In her memory, ever since she went to college, she seemed to have cut off contact with her family and lived in a world of her own. It was her own decision to teach Ya. In fact, her parents hoped that she could stay in the capital, but she unexpectedly violated their expectations and returned to Star City.

Shen Youyi put aside the unpleasant memories of yesterday and walked quickly towards the office. She never brought her mobile phone with her in class. If she wanted to know what happened to Cheng Mo, she should go back to the office and check her mobile phone.

Walking through the corridor on the fifth floor, students greeted her along the way. Shen Youyi smiled all the way, but she was a little tired inside. She also noticed that some students were looking at her and whispering something to each other. Shen Youyi knew What these students are gossiping about is undoubtedly her relationship with Cheng Mo. Although Shen Daoyi consciously walks upright and does not need to be afraid of these rumors, this kind of malicious misunderstanding will still affect her to some extent. her mood.

Shen Daoyi felt tired, which made her hate her appearance even more. She always thought that if she were not so beautiful and had such a prominent figure, she would not be noticed by so many people and would not suffer so much criticism.

What makes Shen Daoyi feel fortunate is that the students in class (9) still support her. In addition, the student she cares about most is not only cured, but also recommended to Tsinghua University. This is what Shen Youyi has heard over the years. This was the happiest news for her. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she felt so sincerely happy. She couldn't explain the reason or the feeling. It was probably when the parents learned that their children had been admitted to Tsinghua University. The pride and joy of Peking University.

These are the motivations that support Shen Youyi to continue to stay in Changya.

Shen Youyi quickened her pace and walked through the cold and noisy corridor. When she reached the office, there were finally not many sights that made her feel uncomfortable. She exhaled a little and slowed down to make herself appear calmer. Slowly walking towards the office, although the office was not a friendly place for her, at least those colleagues would only talk about her behind her back and would not look at her with strange eyes and whisper in front of her.

However, when Shen Youyi walked to the door, she heard Tang Shuisheng ask in a loud voice: "Teacher Huang, what happened to Cheng Mo in your class? Why did Tsinghua's official website announce that he voluntarily gave up the opportunity to be recommended?"

Shen Youyi couldn't help but stopped and stood at the door of the office to listen quietly.

"Really? I don't know what's going on!"

"Not only the official website of Tsinghua University, but also our school's official website, official WeChat account and public account have also announced that Cheng Mo gave up voluntarily."

"Give up voluntarily? How could you give up voluntarily? Only a fool would do this! Something must have happened!"

"Hey! This topic exploded on Weibo again. I saw someone on the Internet saying that it was because the inspection agency was investigating the corruption case in the education system in southern Hunan, saying that Cheng Mo's background was also involved, so Cheng Mo's recommendation quota was cancelled."

"Director Tang, some people on the Internet say that Cheng Mo is connected to the Education Bureau and is also related to Teacher Shen. Is this true?"

"It's probably fake and can be recommended by Cheng Mo. None of the top leaders of our Star City Education Bureau have this ability. Teacher Shen and her father are just the deputy director of our Yuelu District. How is that possible?"

"But maybe the old principal can do it!"

"Nonsense, how could Mr. Shen do such a thing for a stranger?" Tang Shuisheng said seriously.

However, the people around him did not quiet down because of this strong rebuke. Instead, they all laughed meaningfully.

Huang Huiping said: "Although the rumors on the Internet cannot be believed, I think there is indeed something wrong with Teacher Shen. She is already 26 or 7 years old, and her conditions are not bad, but she doesn't even have a partner. Even if we at Changya don't have her, There’s always someone you can see in Star City, right? If you have a boyfriend, you won’t spread rumors about her like this!”

"I also find it strange, but it's not because she doesn't have a boyfriend. You said that Cheng Mo not only drew obscene pictures on the blackboard, but also spray-painted such a large piece of graffiti, causing a scandal that hurt our Changya, but Not only did Teacher Shen act as if nothing had happened, she also took great care of Cheng Mo. Did you see what she said during the news interview? Some of the rumors are not groundless!"

"To be honest, it is indeed a bit abnormal. Do you remember how Huang Ren'an deceived female students? Wasn't it just under the guise of exchanging literature with female students? You see, Teacher Shen asked Cheng Mo to write so many reading notes. Two people There must be a lot of people who have contact with me privately, and only they themselves know if there is anything!"

Shen Youyi, whose face turned pale, was not angry because of these comments. At this moment, all she could think about was why Cheng Mo was canceled from Tsinghua University. Shen Youyi thought for a moment and felt that only Principal Wu knew the situation. Cheng Mo They may not even know what's going on.

So Shen Youyi didn't care about exposing himself, and hurriedly crossed the main door of the office and walked towards the principal's office. All the teachers who heard the footsteps turned to look at the door and found that it was Shen Youyi who was walking by. , the discussion came to an abrupt end.

Tang Shuisheng coughed twice in embarrassment, and the other teachers quickly turned around and pretended to read the textbooks. After all, Shen Youyi's father was an official in the department.

And Shen Youyi didn't even take a second look at the situation in the office. She was only thinking about how to win back Cheng Mo's recommendation spot. When she arrived at the door of the principal's office, Shen Youyi knocked on the door hurriedly. Not only did the knocking sound seem A little heavy, this anxious look is completely different from the usual gentle and quiet Shen Youyi.

When she heard "Come in", Shen Youyi didn't even wait for Principal Wu's words to finish. She couldn't wait to push the door open and asked rudely: "Why has Cheng Mo's recommendation quota been cancelled?"

Wu Lei, who was sitting at his desk, was stunned for a moment when he saw it was Shen Youyi, then pointed to the sofa with a smile and said: "Teacher Shen, if you have anything to say, sit down and tell me."

Shen Youyi did not sit down. She breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down her mood, and tried to keep her tone calm, "I'm sorry, Principal Wu, maybe I am too impatient, but this matter is indeed urgent. I think Do you know why Cheng Mo’s recommendation quota was cancelled?”

Wu Lei stood up and walked towards the water fountain. As he walked, he said: "Teacher Shen, this matter is indeed what the announcement said. Cheng Mo requested to cancel it. He did not want to be escorted. Also, I happened to be there too. I want to talk to you, your father just called me this morning."

Shen Youyi felt a surge of energy and blood in her chest, wondering if it was her fault that Cheng Mo's admission quota was canceled? She immediately walked to Principal Wu's desk and said eagerly: "How could he not want to be admitted?" ?Principal Wu, please tell me the truth! Is it because of me? If it is because of me, I am willing to resign immediately. Please find a way to restore Cheng Mo's recommendation quota."

Wu Lei took out a disposable paper cup from the cabinet of the water dispenser, turned around and asked, "Teacher Shen, would you like some tea?"

Shen Youyi shook his head quickly and said anxiously: "Principal Wu, if I am in the mood to drink tea now, I just ask Principal Wu to help Cheng Mo. I will definitely remember your favor!"

Wu Lei turned to look at Shen Youyi and said with a smile: "Teacher Shen, don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you. Cheng Mo really came here and asked to cancel his quota!"

Shen Youyi asked with a hint of pleading: "There is no reason for him to do this? Did he receive any threats, or was there some other reason that forced him to do this? Please tell me the real reason, so that I can I'll think of a way, maybe I can restore Cheng Mo's recommendation quota, which is also a good thing for the school!"

Wu Lei said with a helpless smile: "If Teacher Shen can persuade Cheng Mo not to give up the recommendation, I will also be very happy. I tried my best to persuade him for a long time in the morning, but he insisted on it, and he not only had to take the college entrance examination, but also required two majors in arts and sciences. He had to take the college entrance examination and he said he wanted to take back the two top picks and give them away."
