All the way till afternoon when Kunshen began to give lectures and answer questions online, the fear of being silenced by any of the two big shots still hung over the heads of Group 7.
“Of course I’m afraid, but nothing can stop me from pursuing knowledge.”
Facing the mobile phone camera handed over for the interview, Cen Rui resolutely said: “Even if I have to carry my school bag and wander around the world in the next second, I still have to ask this question first.”
“Don’t even think about it.” Xia Junhua pushed his hand away, “I should ask the next question. Just because you want to backpack across the world, you can jump the line?”
___
Most of the questions that are asked are difficult, Jin Linkun did not speak fast, and only halfway through the scheduled time, many students from other groups were attracted by the news, and they gathered at the door of the dormitory of Group 7.
When Yu Sheng went out to buy a meal, he was almost blocked by the long queue at the door of Cen Ruixia Junhua’s dorms, and couldn’t squeeze through.
“Is it hot?” Jin Linkun had just finished answering a question when he saw his roommate push the door to come in. He put down the mouse and turned around, “Is there a lot of people in the cafeteria?”
“There aren’t many people in the cafeteria, they should all have lined up outside.”
Yu Sheng handed over his rice bowl, and took out a bottle of iced Wahaha*: “There’s no shuangwaiwai*, let’s drink this for another day.”

Jin Linkun: “…”
Although he was indeed very interested in these sweet dairy milk drinks, Jin Linkun actually did not expect Yu Sheng’s determination to buy at least one of each children’s drinks for him.
In fact, this little friend of his seems to like this process very much, and seems very happy to one up him at this time.
Yu Sheng brought Wahaha with a straw, stuffed it into his hands, and placed his hand on the top of Jin Linkun’s head in a good mood and leaned down, looking down at the screen.
The sun was very hot, and he still carried the heat from the outside. After leaning down in this way, the clothes that were slightly warmed by the sun were pressed against Jin Linkun’s neck.
Jin Linkun raised his head slightly: “Friend——”
Yu Sheng glanced at the white Wahaha bottle in his hand, and couldn’t help but raise the corner of his mouth and said seriously: “This little roommate of mine still needs to do some homework, do you need help?”
“…”
Jin Linkun cleared his throat and adjusted his breathing.
If it wasn’t for the topic, he would really like to stand up right now and rub his roommate’s head even if he gets beaten.
There is always a difference between imagination and reality. After thinking for a while, Jin Linkun regretfully held the hand that his roommate was pressing on top of his head and put it aside, explaining in advance: “My friend, there are too many people with problems. I’ve started a live broadcast…”
Yu Sheng: “…”
The other big shot in the screen flashed past and left the camera quickly.
In the live broadcast room, the barrage that was originally discussing topics harmoniously suddenly became extremely lively.
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!]
[The two of them are roommates, it’s normal to appear on the same screen, but what’s the situation with the little classmate and Wahaha!!]
[Is this the world of learning gods! I’m so envious, I want to drink Wahaha too…]
[The relationship between the two great gods is really good, I also want someone to bring me a meal QAQ when I am reviewing]
[By the way, speaking of a good relationship, do you know? I heard…]
[There’s nothing! I’ve heard Kunshen and Sheng-ge are just very good friends!]
[Very good friend, good brother, we can testify!]
[What happened before was because there were books on Kunshen’s bed, so there was really no place to sleep, so don’t speculate!]
The last barrage was only halfway through, when it was strongly interrupted by a group of bubble poppers* from Group 7 which continued to slowly drift across the screen.
*(they burst their imaginative bubble)
[…I heard that the relationship between the students in the next group is also very good. We must study harder and join the team that happily discusses advanced topics.]
___
“It shouldn’t be.” Cen Rui felt very disappointed, and pulled Liang Yifan to discuss, “Could it be that we are the only ones who think something is wrong with the two bosses in our group?”
Liang Yifan was not surprised: “The problem of changing the grammar into a singular form has been bothering me deeply for the past few weeks.”
He has been alone with the fact that the two big bosses are not right for a long time, and he is very happy to see the other members of Group 7 face the reality with him, and patted Cen Rui on the shoulder: “If you think about it, maybe Kunshen and Sheng-ge haven’t noticed anything different yet, they are just being bent naturally and slowly under the effects of gravity…”
This natural phenomenon is too obvious, some people can already see it.
It’s just that it is too weak like a few bullet comments flashing past the screen, they are swiped over with one action.
On the other hand, in the anonymous forum, those posts related to the two bosses and unrelated to study were pushed up again, and a screenshot of Yu Sheng pressing Jin Linkun’s head was put on it. “Ah, ah, ahhhhh”, “aow, aow, aooow”*’ and other excited messages.
*(barking sounds?)
But before Cen Rui led Group 7 of self-organised control group rushed over, ready to emphasise that this is no big deal, and before Group 7 rubbed each other’s heads just to prove it. He just watched the ninth-gradel account named “wsyzka” . He went online mysteriously, and gave a rocket launcher to the owner of the post.
___
Group 7 let go of the control reluctantly and continued to communicate and share the newly discovered secrets in the internal group.
The topic explanation time was originally scheduled from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., but because of the unexpected influx of a large number of students, it lasted until 9:30 p.m. and finally came to an end.
Jin Linkun breathed a sigh of relief, closed the computer, and turned back apologetically: “I didn’t expect it to take so long…Did I interrupt your review?”
He was still thinking about whether to let Yu Sheng go to the evening self-study first, and then go after solving the last few problems, but the two people’s leave slips have been thoughtfully signed and approved, and sent back in the form of photos.
Yu Sheng didn’t move at all, and has been leaning on the head of the bed to memorise a book until now.
Jin Linkun didn’t hear him turn the pages for a while, and he was a little worried that he was too noisy to recite the topic, which disturbed him so much that he couldn’t recite it.
The pen in Yu Sheng’s hand paused, and he raised his head. The book on his lap almost slipped down without holding it down: “It’s over?”
“Yes… just finished.”
It was rare to see him distracted in the middle of his study, Jin Linkun answered subconsciously, inexplicably curious, and couldn’t help but want to see what his roommate was doing.
He just stood up, and the book in Yu Sheng’s hand was closed firmly with a snap, and he stuffed it under the pillow.
“…” Jin Linkun coughed lightly, “My friend—”
He met Yu Sheng’s gaze, rubbed the tip of his nose, and promptly changed his words to promise: “I don’t want to read it at all, and I won’t touch the book under your pillow in the middle of the night.”
The promise was too serious, Yu Sheng looked at him, but still couldn’t help pulling the corner of his mouth: “Want to go out for dinner?”
“Ah?” Normally, he had to talk about all kinds of things to lure him out for a meal. Jin Linkun was not used to it, so he stood carefully for a while, and cautiously raised his hand to feel the temperature of his forehead.
Yu Sheng didn’t hide his smile, got up and got out of bed, and patted his hand off: “Hurry up, I’m hungry.”
It is a big deal for his roommate to be hungry. Jin Linkun got up, turned around a few times to pack his things, and was about to pick up Yu Sheng’s school bag when a candy was stuffed into his palm.
Jin Linkun raised his eyebrows, couldn’t help but bend his eyes, peeled off the candy carefully, and put it in his mouth.
When Yu Sheng said he wanted to go out to eat, he just dragged Jin Linkun out of the school and handed over the job of leading the way to him.
It was rare that he was interested, so Jin Linkun picked out a grilled fish shop that was far away, and dragged him onto the bus.
The location of N University is isolated, and it is late, so there are few people on the bus and it is almost empty.
There are single rows of seats on both sides. Yu Sheng randomly found an empty seat and wanted to sit down, but was dragged by Jin Linkun and sat in the last row together.
The rear seats are narrower than the front ones, and they are bumpy. Yu Sheng sat by the window, watched the dark night scene outside the window for a while, and suddenly remembered Jin Linkun’s excuse for asking for leave at that time: “You don’t get carsick anymore?”
Jin Linkun was slightly dumb, and shook his head honestly: “I don’t get carsick, do you want to sit in the front?”
It’s rare that Yu Sheng is willing to travel far away with him, and he doesn’t know why the buses here don’t even have double-row seats.
It was really uncomfortable to sit in the back row. Jin Linkun turned his body to make room for him, but Yu Sheng still sat still.
Street lamps cast in from the window, and the warm-toned light outlined the boy’s unusually vivid shadow.
Yu Sheng lowered his head and fiddled with the phone, moved into the seat again, adjusted his posture and leaned against the car window, and finally found barely enough space for his two legs.
Jin Linkun couldn’t help raising the corners of his lips, and opened his mouth to speak, but was blocked by Yu Sheng’s hand.
“…” Jin Linkun felt a little regretful, moved his mouth under his palm, and mumbled, “I just want to express my joy…”
“The only way you express your joy is to talk about it?”
Yu Sheng glanced up at him, and couldn’t help but feel that his understanding of this person was superficial: “Your voice is hoarse, don’t you want to rest for a while?”
Jin Linkun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that the candy he gave him seemed to taste different from usual.
His roommate not only ran so far with him to eat, and was willing to sit with him in the back seat, but also stuffed him with a throat lozenge because he had been speaking for too long.
Jin Linkun’s mouth was covered, so he couldn’t speak, so he could only express his joy in another way, took out his mobile phone, and shared this little thing in life with Liang Yifan.
The Grilled fish place is recommended by Dong Jue, it is just next to the bus station. Jin Linkun deliberately came over to check the way once, and confidently dragged Yu Sheng around the corner of the street, and found an unusually conspicuous signboard.
The schoolbag brought out this time was a bit heavy, Jin Linkun weighed it, and couldn’t help being curious: “What did you bring out?”
“Book.” Yu Sheng said succinctly, “If you can’t go back in the middle of the night, let’s open a room and review together.”
Jin Linkun: “…”
They ate too much at night and couldn’t digest it. The two of them didn’t order more. They only ordered two meals and a few extra side dishes.
The grilled fish tasted very good. Jin Linkun was busy picking the fish for him, and strongly recommended the roasted garlic in the grilled fish: “This one has no garlic flavour, not spicy, and the seasonings are very tasty. It is very delicious. “
He piled half a bowl of fish on Yu Sheng, lowered his head to take a few mouthfuls of rice, and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a garlic clove.
“How is it?” Jin Linkun looked forward to it, “Do you like it?”
He already has a clear grasp of the taste of Sheng, but he is still a little nervous: “I tasted it once, and I think it’s good, I want you to try it…”
Even eating couldn’t stop this man’s mouth, so Yu Sheng gave up the idea of protecting his voice, and pushed over the pear juice he ordered: “It’s delicious.”
Jin Linkun’s eyes lit up, and his eyes behind the lens were bent, and he took two sips of pear juice.
Yu Sheng was eating, seeing his contented expression, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch. He picked up a piece of rice cake and stuffed it into his bowl.
The two people who had a regular support group of fans in the summer camp suddenly became naive. You put it in my bowl and I pile it in yours, they buried their heads in the food and finally finished the food.
“It should be because of this stall.”
Jin Linkun couldn’t move, he leaned on the chair to digest slowly: “Their bowls are too big.”
Yu Sheng ordered another bowl of candied hawthorn puree, and pushed it to Jin Linkun to aid in digestion: “Who told you to finish eating everything?”
He was more sensible than Jin Linkun, and he stopped the other party in time to prevent the other party from continuing to stuff things into his bowl, which was within the range that his appetite could handle.
The bowl containing the hawthorn puree is quite small. The red hawthorn puree is mixed with honey, lined in a small pure white bowl, with a sweet and sour fragrance, which makes people salivate unconsciously.
Jin Linkun played with the delicate white jade bowl, still very happy: “My roommate gave it to me.”
The chopsticks in Yu Sheng’s hand paused, and he looked up at him.
___
Half a minute later, Jin Linkun looked at the whole bowl of garlic cloves in his bowl, a little unbelievable: “My friend, I don’t think normal development should be like this.”
“What’s normal?” Yu Sheng diligently picked garlic cloves for him, and the corners of his lips could not be suppressed, “I was so moved by you that I kneeled down and bowed, and I will be your little brother from now on, and I will go with you on the battlefield anywhere around the world.”
Jin Linkun felt that his roommate might be memorising history before he came out: “…No need, I suddenly feel that this development is not bad.”
Considering the possible consequences of eating a bowl of garlic, the two of them still did not continue to complete the ceremony. After eating for a while, they went out for a stroll.
That night, Group 7 who had grown up were able to calmly face the quiet dormitory with the lights off, and told the students in the other groups that the two bigshots went out to study overnight, and they worked too hard and didn’t return all night.
A few days later, before the art performance, Jin Linkun finally knew what his roommate was doing on the day of the lecture.
The book that Yu Sheng had pressed under his pillow for several days was stuffed into his school bag at some point, and as soon as he opened it, he could see a page of sticky notes with a Q version of a black-haired little man drawn on it.
Wearing a headset facing the computer, sitting in front of the desk, there are still little stars of wisdom shining in the eyes behind the lenses.
Except that the cartoon villain’s legs can’t reach the ground, the overall background environment is quite realistic, but for some reason, there is an extra bamboo pole drawn on the side, which is green and shiny.
Jin Linkun was looking at the illustration of his roommate’s on the sticky note, pondering whether this was a metaphor for him being a rare animal similar to a panda, when a message suddenly popped up on the screen of his phone.
A text message from an unfamiliar number, quite long, stopped at the top of the screen for a few seconds.
Jin Linkun was startled, clicked on the message, and read it from beginning to end.
___
“Sheng-ge, do you think this is okay?”
The whole show was rehearsed according to Yu Sheng’s plan. Ding Zhengjiao was still a little unconfident, hence he pulled him aside to confirm the details: “Here we go on stage, and then freeze the frame, put the instruments here, and bring them together when we go on stage… “
He said a few words, looked up and saw Cen Rui and the others playing with their mobile phones together, and couldn’t help frowning: “Cen Rui, Lao Xia, come here quickly! It’s time to play tonight, what are you doing?”
“Team leader!” Cen Rui held up his mobile phone, his eyes shining brightly, and he jumped over, “Good news – what those trash did was really found out! The Provincial Department of Education issued a notice to cancel the punishment that was issued by mistake. The forum is full of netizens, everyone is talking about this…”
Ding Zhengjiao was stunned for a moment, and realised what he was talking about in a blink of an eye, and his heart beat faster: “It really happened?”
Although the report was submitted jointly as a last resort, in the end, no one expected that this matter would really succeed.
There is so much that cannot be changed, and they have begun to be exposed to the feeling of powerlessness, knowing that many things are not as good as they should be.
When being questioned by the summer camp and the school leaders, everyone has been explained more than once. It has been a year since the matter has settled, and no matter how big the disturbance is, it is likely to be a futile effort.
The entire Group 7 were very clear in their hearts, but none of them suggested that since it could not be achieved, it would be better to give up the compromise and let it go.
Whether it is successful or not has nothing to do with whether you want to do something. The people in their group were bullied and suffered such a big grievance, so everyone should stand together.
If they didn’t even stand with Jin Linkun, this matter would have ended in such a hasty and abrupt way, in the most incomprehensible and powerless way, at an age when it shouldn’t have been just cast aside.
Ding Zhengjiao clutched the phone, repeatedly confirmed that it was not fake news, and couldn’t help standing up: “Kunshen! Come on, tell Kunshen——”
There were too many people in the room, and after searching around, I found that Jin Linkun was not in the preparation room.
Ding Zhengjiao was a little anxious and was about to make a call when Yu Sheng held him down: “No, I’ll go find him.”
There was no doubt in his tone, Ding Zhengjiao froze for a moment, said nothing, and nodded.
It’s raining outside today, so it’s a bit cold. Yu Sheng took out an umbrella, put on his coat and was about to go out when Ding Zhengjiao stopped him: “Sheng-ge”
Yu Sheng stopped in his tracks and waited for him to speak.
“You… tell Kunshen.”
Ding Zhengjiao tried his best to express his words: “Tell him we are waiting for him to come rehearse, tell him—tell him to come back when he is ready.”
Yu Sheng was dumbfounded: “He just went out to get some air. He’ll be back in a while.”
“We know that you and Kunshen have been busy these days for us. You want us to get a place in this performance to make it easier for those of us who are recommended a place and to help us, so that we can be more confident in the college entrance examination.”
Ding Zhengjiao was so nervous that he couldn’t hear what he said clearly, and he continued to speak, apparently he thought about this in his heart countless times.
With a sincere expression, he looked up at Yu Sheng, patted his head, a little embarrassed: “But we—we didn’t stand by him because of this.”
Yu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
The students in Group 7 were all nearby, and no one spoke, just quietly listening to Ding Zhengjiao stuttering and continuing.
“We didn’t stand by for him because of this.”
Ding Zhengjiao took a deep breath, managed to speak the whole sentence fluently, and grinned: “We stand by him because we are friends with him.”
