Why it never ends

Seeing Cheng Xiaoshu smile with a complicated expression, Yujiali asked the reason.

"I'm looking forward to graduation," Cheng Xiaoshu said. "Staying in school all the time... is not interesting after all."

"How could it be boring," Yugali said in surprise, "For example, there should be many activities like today in the school every week, right? There are also teachers who teach and teach, and like-minded partners...don't you think so? ?"

"Indeed it was at first."

"...Then what?" Yugali whispered, "Then you get tired of it?"

"It's not that I'm tired, it's just..." Cheng Xiaoshu thought about it seriously, "The whole process of studying is very similar to mountain climbing. It's such a high mountain and such a long distance. People with complete equipment can walk it, naked. People with weak feet can also walk, some people can start walking from halfway up the mountain, and some people can only start from the foot of the mountain... But as long as you are willing to work hard, there is a way to reach the top."

Yugali kept nodding his head and couldn't help but say "yes".

"It's just that I thought it would be different once I climbed to the top of the mountain," Cheng Xiaoshu half-leaned opposite Yugali, "The people here, the scenery here, the things that will happen here..."

"It's just different." Yugali tilted his head, "I went to Songxueyuan for the first time a few months ago, and I still can't imagine what it's like to live in a city like that."

Cheng Xiaoshu said nothing.

The outside suddenly became lively. Both Youjiali and Cheng Xiaoshu heard the continuous sound of water pouring from the yard, and they both woke up from this steamy conversation at the same time.

"Everyone seems to be back."

"Yes," Yugali laughed, "Help me watch the fire, and I'll come back with a bucket of water."

She put down her sleeves and walked out. As she walked through the atrium, she suddenly saw Mei Sinan in a daze.

"...Why are you here alone?" Yugali was a little surprised, "Didn't you go down the mountain to get water with everyone?"

Mesnan came back from his thoughts, "What?"

"Have you been staying here?"

Mesnan stood up slowly, his expression still looking a little dazed, "Yes."

Yugali frowned. She suddenly lost her good impression of the gentle-looking boy in front of her.

"Then go to the backyard and help," Yugali said. "Many girls have gone to help. How can you sit here alone?"

Mesnan walked to the kitchen in a daze, and Yugali turned around and yelled at him.

"It's the other way around! Go this way!"

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, everyone finally had lunch. Many people took out the cans of beer and Coke they had brought with them from their backpacks, and the sound of bubbles as the easy-pull tabs opened came and went.

Hesta and Yugali sat together with their classmates from the drama club. During the dinner, Hesta was busy eating, and from time to time she felt a few glances from the opposite table. Several girls frequently turned back to look at her. There was both contempt and a little hostility in their eyes. She thought about it secretly for a while, and suddenly realized that the other person was glaring at Yugali.

"Do you know the girls over there? The one wearing the cap, and the ones around her..."

"I don't know." Yugali replied quietly, "They seem to have been looking at me?"

"Yeah, what are those people doing..."

Yujiali ate a few chopsticks and suddenly realized: "Is she the boy's girlfriend, the one named Ding?" "I don't know, I haven't heard him mention it."

Just as Hesta was recalling the girl's name, she heard Yugali let out a sigh of realization.

"...I understand." Yugali whispered.

Hesta looked at Yugali and saw that her expression suddenly became serious, and she was suddenly worried.

"What do you understand?" Hesta asked.

Suddenly, several girls at the opposite table burst into laughter, and Hestad felt a certain tendon in her head tighten. She felt that she was allergic to laughter recently, especially to the "unspeakable" in these smiles. She is particularly sensitive to the meaning of the face.

Hesta was about to speak when suddenly someone at the table stood up with a cup in hand and paid tribute to Xiaoshu and Yugali. Today's picnic on the top of the mountain was full of problems. Fortunately, two chefs fell from the sky and came to the rescue in time. Otherwise, we still wouldn't know. What time can this meal be served?

After hearing this, everyone agreed and raised their glasses together. Yujiali and Cheng Xiaoshu both laughed sheepishly. They filled their glasses with wine and drank it all without blinking. This move caused a stir. There was a round of applause.

Just after Yugali put down the cup, someone immediately opened another can of beer and refilled it for her. Even though Yugali kept shouting "enough, enough", the man didn't stop adding wine. When Yugali's cup was full, the man turned his eyes and realized that Hesta's cup was empty. He turned around and was about to pour the remaining half can of beer into her cup.

The next moment, all the wine spilled on the back of Hesta's hand - she quickly covered the rim of the cup without giving the other party a chance.

Hesta stood up, "What are you doing."

"...I'll pour you some wine!"

"I do not drink."

"There aren't many left!" The man patted Hestad's arm, "Aren't you a Hestad? How can a Hestad not drink -"

"I don't like drinking."

Seeing Hesta approaching him, the man's throat twitched slightly and he took two steps back.

"You're like this... You're like this..." The man stretched out his index finger and tapped it a few times in mid-air. Suddenly he remembered something and turned his attention to Eucalyptus. "How about this? Can you drink it for her?"

Before Yugali could say anything, another girl from the drama club stood up unbearably and dragged the man out by his collar, "Is there something wrong with you? Didn't you hear what I said about not drinking?"

There was a burst of laughter from the people at the table, and amidst the continuous taunts, the toaster wisely walked away.

"There's something really wrong." Hesta shook off her wet hands and sat down again, "There are people like this everywhere."

On the side, Yugali couldn't help laughing, and she whispered, "Are you really not a drinker, or are you unwilling to drink with such a person?"

"No," Hesta replied, "I don't touch alcohol."

"...Then if you encounter this kind of toast in the future, I can really help you block it," Yugali took out two napkins and handed them over, "I basically won't get drunk if I drink beer."

"No need," Hestad still frowned, "If he tries again, I'll put his head on the table."

Eucalyptus laughed.

Not far away, Ksenia was also looking this way. She heard the laughter of the two people, but could not quite hear their whispers. She looked at Hesta's side face and silently counted the seconds in her mind. Before counting to three, Hesta had keenly caught the sight here and subconsciously turned her head to look this way.

Ksenia smiled slightly, her eyes already falling back into her wine glass.
