Chapter 8

Yu Yu is my deskmate in the third year of high school. At that time, like Xiaoyang now, I loved writing, but I hated exam composition, and I suffered from rhinitis, and my vision and memory declined rapidly. At that time, I looked lonely and cynical. To make matters worse, when a classmate dropped out of school, my original deskmate suggested to the teacher sit with her boyfriend. I lost my deskmate for a while and became alone. Yu Yu is on the left side of me. That day, she said jokingly, "How about being your deskmate?" I joked, "Okay." Unexpectedly, she moved here for the next class. I was very surprised at that time, but I didn't have much energy to build a friendship with her. She seemed to be quite "scheming" and kept asking me questions. In the explanation to him, she stared at me boldly and without shyness, and I was embarrassed and at a loss.

After a lunch break, there was a letter lying in the drawer of my desk, named Yu Yu. She said bluntly that my writing style is good, and there is Lu Xun's legacy. I think this may be because she was only familiar with the most frequent writers in such a textbook at that time. I began to stop being indifferent to her, and she looked very happy. When I slept at the desk in the morning, she always looked like a good baby and asked me to wake her up at some point so that I could continue to do the exercises. However, when the time came, she didn't move. I tried to push her with my hand, but she ignored it. I said to her angrily, "I don't care about you anymore. Go to sleep." Sometimes I was so tired that I made it like this. When the time came, I pretended not to fall asleep, and she shook me hard until I surrendered and admitted defeat.

I said to the supervisor, "I remember, what's wrong?" He told me directly that Yu Yu worked in his enterprise, which he found on the list of team leaders when checking the products. "It's true," he told me. I said, so what? He said disdainfully, "How's it going? Who are you lying to? Who doesn't know the relationship between you two!" I said, so what? He must feel that he has nothing to do and said, "I'm too lazy to care about you. I'm just a good friend and classmate to remind you that Yu Yu asked for a month's long leave in advance. It is rumored that she is about to get married. I don't know who the other party is now, but I know it's definitely not you..."

Yu Yu is getting married. I think she knows that she is going to get married when she grows up, and she does it herself. I remember that the letter she wrote to me mentioned her ideals. She said that she graduated from high school and wanted to be a nurse; has she realized her dream now? At that time, I thought that the nurse handed over the equipment to run errands during the operation, but I still appreciated that she had such a different and down-to-earth career goal. I also joked that you are a doctor, I am a doctor, and we are Lu Xun together. She nodded with a smile and agreed.

She always compares me with Lu Xun, just like Xiaoyang. But Lu Xun has a trump card, and I can never imitate it. He can rely on high scores and hate evil at the same time, just like one person can complete the table tennis game of two people; and I always care about one thing and the other. When the Chinese examination paper was handed out, a bright red and dazzling zero was circled in the upper right corner of my composition, and my composition got zero! The marking teacher also paid special attention to it for the first time, adding a few words of motto and criticism at the end of the article; the content is seriously different from the direction of the proposition. But I am not ashamed, because I know that this is not my reason. Yu Yu asked to see my test paper, and I gave it to her generously, but she didn't say anything after reading it. I know that she cares about my face, but it seems that she acquiesced to the end of this composition. I don't know what to say, but what makes me grateful is that in the next exam, her composition also got a zero, and I got a moderate score. She said to me proudly, "Well, I got zero points, too." When I read her composition, I couldn't help but be angry and sad. I lost my temper with her and said, "Why do you learn from me? It's not good for you to have such an impact on you and delay your future. I can't be responsible." She doesn't seem to take the score seriously and smiles secretly. I don't think she will be the same as me. However, now, she is getting married. So, she should not have gone to college. Is it my fault?

At the end of the conversation, I summoned up the courage to ask him, "Is Yu Yu going back to his hometown to get married?" My classmate wanted to see through me and scolded, "If you want to find her, don't ask anything. Pack it up quickly and give it to me. Fortunately, there is still a period of time before she has a holiday. You have to work hard, understand? I thank this classmate for giving me directions, but it was too abrupt.
