That year, the boy was sixteen years old and had just entered his first year of high school, and on the day of the opening of the school, he recognized the girl at once.
The boy's name was Ji Ru Jing, and he grew up in an orphanage. Perhaps because of his natural talent, he always got good grades, so there were a lot of good people who helped him, and he was able to go to high school.
He looked at the girl with unblinking eyes, and the girl turned away in embarrassment to avoid meeting his gaze.
"What are you looking at? You toad want to eat swan meat? Our family Ruoxin is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also virtuous and talented, you just die this heart." The girl's best friend warned Ji Ruujing in front of everyone.
Ji Ru Jing skimmed the girl's BFF and then said to the girl, "I'm sorry, I just thought you looked like one of my friends so ......"
"It's okay. " The girl said.
The girl's name is Zhang Ruoxin, the daughter of the director, because of being in a wealthy family, she grew up learning the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, so from a young age, she has been used by the other children as a role model and the object of worship.
Of course, Ji Ru Jing knows that Zhang Ruoxin has forgotten herself, and as the saying goes, "Noble people forget things," so he doesn't ask Zhang Ruoxin to recognize her. Just to be able to see her again, Ji Ru Jing would be satisfied.
When he was seven years old, Ji Ru Jing was crying in front of the orphanage, and Zhang Ruoxin, who was passing by at the time, saw him and gave him two buns, and he smiled happily.
Later, Zhang Ruoxin and her mother came to the orphanage to visit the orphans, and she recognized Ji Ru Jing at first sight, and gave him a pendant of Guanyin, and kept a pendant of Maitreya Buddha for herself.
She said to Ji Ru Jing, "Men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha, I hope she blesses you with peace and safety."
After that time, Ji Rujing never saw Zhang Ruoxin again. This time, nearly ten years.
Ji Ru Jing touched the pendant on his chest, it was still there, but he didn't say anything else.
Ji Ru Jing was admitted to the first middle school with the third place in the city. But even so, he felt that the distance between himself and Zhang Ruoxin was still a hundred thousand miles, and he also understood that there is something called unattainable.
After living in the orphanage for more than ten years, he has long developed the habit of being a man of few words. Now, although in this thousands of people gathered into the noisy campus, he is still as silent as ever.
However, he is always keeping an eye on Zhang Ruoxin, and every move she makes, Ji Rujing sees it in his eyes and puts it in his heart.
The fluttering in the age of rainy season, he began to slowly have. Yes, he began to like Zhang Ruoxin, but he wanted to bury it deep in his heart, so that that kind of sudden good feeling in the river of time slowly fade, slowly disappear.
2.
In his first year of high school, Ji Rujing didn't say a word to Zhang Ruoxin and only smiled when he met her.
Before the second year of high school began, Ji Ru Jing returned to the orphanage, where he began to take care of the orphans who had been left fatherless and motherless like him.
One day, Zhang Ruoxin came to the orphanage and saw Ji Rujing singing to the children. The orphans had happy smiles on their faces, and Zhang Ruoxin smiled.
It was only in front of those orphans that Ji Ru Jing sang with impunity, and it was only in front of those orphans that he felt happy.
He saw her next to him.
"Be good younger siblings, big brother has something to do, he will sing to you later." Ji Ru Jing said and walked over to Zhang Ruoxin.
"Hello, Zhang Ruoxin student." Ji Ru Jing said.
Zhang Ruoxin smiled and replied, "You're quite the kid's favorite."
"Because I'm an orphan too, they are my younger siblings." Ji Ru Jing sighed.
Zhang Ruoxin said with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were an orphan."
"Do the math, you haven't been here in ten years, in fact we met ten years ago." Ji Ru Jing took out the Guanyin pendant from her chest when she finished speaking.
"You are the little boy who cried at the door and then I gave you two buns?" Zhang Ruoxin asked in surprise.
Ji Ru Jing nodded, "Well, when I first entered my senior year of high school, I saw your Maitreya Buddha pendant and recognized you."
"I've been busy for the past ten years, so I didn't come here before I didn't remember you, I'm sorry." Zhang Ruoxin said in an apologetic tone.
"You don't have to apologize, I also have to thank you." Ji Ru Jing finished placing the pendant on Zhang Ruoxin's hand "Now it's time to return it to you."
Ji Ru Jing walked away. He had told himself countless times in his heart that he must return the pendant to her with his own hands because it never belonged to him in the first place, even though she had given it to him.
He knew that his status was humble, so as long as it belonged to her, he didn't deserve it.
In fact, she also saw it, but just do not want to say it, perhaps the only way, they can still be friends.
The school year started.
Ji Ru Jing found a right against the wall and the last table, and he was seated with Zhang Ruoxin.
"Why are you sitting at the back?" Ji Rujing asked her. Ji Ru Jing asked her.
Zhang Ruoxin did not panic, not slow, said: "always sit in the front, are tired, it is time to change the place."
That day, Ji Ru Jing was listening to the class with unprecedented seriousness and spirit.
3.
Not even a week later, Zhang Ruoxin was back in her original seat. Ji Ru Jing looked at the left hand side of the empty, heart both disappointed and happy.
Zhang Ruoxin sat next to the study committee. The study committee member is a boy, called Liu Xing, tall, handsome, is the male god in the eyes of many girls.
And Zhang Ruoxin is one of the most beautiful women in the class, with an enviable body and mesmerizing face.
He and Zhang Ruoxin are talking and laughing and seem to be very happy. This should be the Lang Talent Talent.
Ji Ru Jing was glad in his heart that he finally distanced himself from Zhang Ruoxin, as long as he didn't take the initiative to talk to her, then she shouldn't come to bother her.
Liu Xing not only has good grades, but is also good at various sports. On the contrary, Ji Ru Jing only knows how to study and nothing else.
In the first semester of the second year of high school, the school held a class basketball tournament, and of course, Liu Xing was the first to compete. However, the team members have to be full of ten people, the class is eligible to participate, otherwise it will be treated as a forfeit.
The team was able to get nine people together, but the team had to be able to get ten people together.
Zhang Xue, the class president, doesn't want her class to be labeled as a giant in studies and a dwarf in sports, so she approached Ji Ru Jing.
Ji Ru Jing was a thousand times reluctant, he said, "I don't know how to do it at all, let me go and lose face?" After saying that he still sat in his seat to write his homework.
"Forget it, this kind of person who has no class honor, why beg him?" Liu Xing said to the class president.
Zhang Ruoxin walked over and sat in the seat to the left of Ji Ru Jing. To Ji Ru Jing, she said, "If you don't say yes, our class won't be eligible to participate in the competition, and then we won't have a face for gym class."
Ji Ru Jing finally agreed, because he really had no way to refuse Zhang Ruoxin.
The basketball game was on schedule.
Liu Xing, like a battlefield general, fought bravely to kill the enemy, passing one after another person defending him with one for ten. But Ji Ru Jing was at a loss, not even able to stand, just like a headless fly strung out. The audience below the field let out a jeering sound.
At the end of each match, many girls sent water to Liu Xing, asking if he was tired, and among those girls was Zhang Ruoxin. Ji Ru Jing left the stadium without a trace of attachment, sweating profusely, he did not even take a sip of water.
After the last game, Ji Ru Jing came to the classroom early, and there was another person in the classroom, the class president.
4.
Ji Ru Jing could tell that the class president had a crush on Liu Xing. When those girls sent water to Liu Xing, the class president was on the sidelines with a face of jealousy and anger, especially when Liu Xing and Zhang Ruoxin chatted, the class president was so angry that she stomped her feet.
Without speaking to Ji Ru Jing, the class president stormed out the door.
During the evening study hall, the class president suddenly shouted, "My fountain pen is gone, the one my dad brought back from Beijing is gone."
The whole class began to rummage through the cupboards in search of it.
"Here it is." Zhang Ruoxin's best friend took it out of Zhang Ruoxin's desk box.
The class looked at Zhang Ruoxin with a surprised face.
"Good you Zhang Ruoxin, you steal?" The class president indiscriminately pointed at Zhang Ruoxin.
At this time Liu Xing stepped forward and said, "Zhang Xue, don't make the mistake of blaming Ruoxin, I'm sure she wouldn't do this."
The class president a mouth unforgiving tone: "This is found in her desk box, it is difficult to not my pen own long feet walk past?"
Zhang Ruoxin was anxious to explain: "Not me, I steal a pen why?"
"No need to explain, go to the moral education office." The class president pulled Zhang Ruoxin's hand and walked two steps.
"I took it." Ji Ru Jing walked in front of them.
Zhang Ruoxin looked at Ji Ru Jing incredulously, wanting to speak.
"You're lying, you took it why is it in Zhang Ruoxin's desk case?" The class president asked Ji Ru Jing.
Ji Ru Jing replied unhurriedly, "After you walked out of the classroom, you saw the stationery box in your desk box. I opened it and saw that exquisite pen, just took it out and walked two steps, when many people came to the classroom door, and I just walked to Zhang Ruoxin's desk, so I put it inside by hand."
Liu Xing nodded and said, "This is possible, the class president sits at the first table, Ruoxin sits at the third table, so it is really logical."
Ji Ruoxing was sent to the moral education office and was written up.
Zhang Ruoxin asked Ji Ru Jing, "Why did you steal? Do you know that you will be disciplined for doing so?"
Ji Ru Jing did not answer, looked at Zhang Ruoxin, and then went back to writing his homework.
And at this time, there are falling leaves flying past the window, it is already fall.
5.
The last basketball game. Ji Ru Jing was injured and was sent to the city hospital. The doctor said it was a mild concussion, not a problem, but it took a while for the patient to wake up.
That night, Zhang Ruoxin did not attend class. She fell asleep on Ji Rujing's hospital bed. When she woke up at eleven o'clock, she was holding Ji Rujing's hand. Ji Ru Jing's cold hand made her feel unusually scared and sad.
Although the doctor said that Ji Ru Jing was not in any serious condition, she was afraid that he would never wake up again, and she cried sadly when she looked at his pale face. She took out the Guanyin pendant and put it back on Ji Ru Jing.
She had a hard time sleeping all night.
Ji Ru Jing woke up at 3:00 a.m. His first words when he woke up were, "Ruoxin, are you hurt?"
It was the first time he called her Ruoxin. It was also the first time she heard Ji Ru Jing call her Ruoxin. She happily held his hand, tears falling from her face to the back of his cold hand.
Zhang Ruoxin said with tears of joy, "You finally woke up, I thought you wouldn't wake up."
Ji Ru Jing smiled, "I still have a lot to do, so I can't die."
The next day, Zhang Ruoxin's parents came to visit Ji Ru Jing in the hospital as if they were their own children, making Ji Ru Jing embarrassed.
In fact, on that day, it was Ji Ru Jing who helped Zhang Ruoxin to block the ball, if not for Ji Ru Jing, maybe the person who is lying on the bed now is Zhang Ruoxin.
It was a long pass from Liu Xing, with a lot of force and speed, and it went straight to the basket in the direction of Zhang Ruoxin, and the closest player to Zhang Ruoxin was Ji Ruujing, but he didn't know how to play the game. He knew he couldn't catch the ball, and when he saw it was about to hit Zhang Ruoxin, Ji Rujing blocked it with a dive. The ball slammed into his face, and only then did Zhang Ruoxin react, and she took two steps back, while Ji Ruujing fell heavily to the ground, with blood coming out of his nose and mouth.
The game ended early because of Ji Ru Jing, and their class had no chance of making it to the quarterfinals.
6.
Most of the students in the class complained about Ji Ru Jing because they couldn't make it to the quarterfinals, but Ji Ru Jing didn't care because Zhang Ruoxin wasn't one of the complainers.
When winter came, Zhang Ruoxin bought a down jacket for Ji Ru Jing, saying it was to repay him for blocking the ball.
The number of times they talked increased, and his withdrawn character slowly changed. Liu Xing, on the other hand, started to get upset, and he began to look at Ji Ru Jing with hatred, but Ji Ru Jing didn't care.
That winter, Zhang Ruoxin said to Ji Ru Jing, "Ji Ru Jing, if we get into the same university, will you chase me?"
Ji Rujing looked at Zhang Ruoxin, who had a serious face, and nodded.
Later on, they were often together, chatting about the past, studying, and the future. The two of them were very happy to see each other, and they were very happy to see each other.
In the class, Zhang Ruoxin's best friend saw Ji Ru Jing, still a high and arrogant look.
Liu Xing has been unmotivated to study for a while now, and even when he sits next to Zhang Ruoxin, Zhang Ruoxin doesn't pay any attention to him, but just looks back at Ji Ru Jing.
After the final exams, they came to the orphanage.
Ji Rujing pulled Zhang Ruoxin together and danced, sang, and played with the children in the classroom.
On the way home, Zhang Ruoxin jumped on Ji Ru Jing's back like a child, "Carry me."
Ji Ru Jing smiled, "Uh-huh."
Along the way, the cold wind cut into Ji Ru Jing's face and hands like a knife. But he did not complain a single word. Zhang Ruoxin felt incomparably warm on Ji Rujing's back.
"If only it could be like this all the time." Zhang Ruoxin murmured.
"What did you say?" Ji Ru Jing asked her.
She said in a panic, "No, nothing."
That winter, Ji Ru Jing had been to Zhang Ruoxin's house.
Her father said to Ji Ru Jing, "Xiao Jing ah, if you have any difficulties, talk to uncle, just ......"
"Just what?" Ji Ru Jing asked.
Uncle Zhang said in a serious manner, "It's just that can you and our family Ruoxin have less interaction? I mean you guys are about to take the college entrance exam, you can't affect your studies."
Ji Ru Jing sadly nodded: "Good."
He began to avoid Zhang Ruoxin.
7.
The year of senior high school is a time of chaos. Sometimes you don't even know what you're doing, it's confusing, it's helpless, it's sad.
In fact, he would not have been sad, just away from her, he has not been happy.
"Is it my father?" Zhang Ruoxin found Ji Rujing in a corner of the playground.
"No, it's not, it's me, I'm afraid it will affect my studies." Ji Ru Jing did not dare to look directly at Zhang Ruoxin.
"We are only discussing our studies together, as for a relationship, as I said, wait until we go to college." Zhang Ruoxin said.
Then they came together again as they did at the beginning, talking about the past, talking about study, talking about the future.
The paper can't hold fire, they are so close, not only the study committee can't see past, even Zhang Ruoxin's father knows.
"Ruoxin, I told you not to fall in love early, you do not listen, even if you find a boyfriend, but also to find a decent, you see that Ji Rujing, since childhood is an orphan, all these years are your father I subsidize him, he can only study, in the future, he can have what success?" Zhang Ruoxin's father reprimanded Zhang Ruoxin in the teacher's office.
Zhang Ruoxin said unhappily, "Dad, I'm already eighteen years old, there are some things I can make the decision." After she finished speaking, she walked out of the office in a huff, and happened to meet Ji Ru Jing standing in the doorway, who lowered his head and didn't say a word.
"I'm sorry." Zhang Ruoxin said to Ji Ru Jing.
Ji Ru Jing shook his head, still not saying a word.
Time, slowly passing in silence, slipping away from you, from me.
The class president's pen is missing again, and this time it was searched in Ji Ru Jing's desk box.
"You stole again?" The class president scolds him.
Zhang Ruoxin hurriedly said, "Ru Jing, you didn't steal it right?"
Zhang Ruoxin's best friend said, "He stole it, I saw it with my own eyes."
"Speak up, you didn't steal it right?" Zhang Ruoxin said anxiously.
Ji Ru Jing gave a long laugh, "Yes, I stole it, not only did I steal it, I want to destroy it." After he finished, he picked up the pen and threw it to the ground, picked up the stool and smashed it, black ink splashed on his face.
Zhang Ruoxin ran over and slapped him in the face, then cried, "Ji Rujing, I was wrong about you, I was really wrong about you."
"Yes, you were wrong about me, a useless person like me can only do this kind of thing." Ji Ru Jing said with hot tears.
After that day, they were strangers and Ji Ru Jing was expelled. In this school, stealing twice is grounds for expulsion.
Liu Xing happily sits next to Zhang Ruoxin again, while the class president has a jealous look on his face, as if it were the beginning.
8.
The high school exams are over.
The orphanage has another group of left-behind children, Ji Ru Jing is playing with them, he is still as happy as ever.
Liu Xing and Zhang Ruoyin come to the orphanage together, they are still as good as ever.
Ji Ru Jing took down the Guanyin pendant on her chest and helped Liu Xing put it on, "The real owner of this thing is you."
Zhang Ruoxin said slightly sadly, "I'm sorry."
"What's the point of saying that." Ji Ru Jing laughed.
After that, Liu Xing and Ji Ru Jing talked about many, many things. Of course Zhang Ruoxin would never know that the pen that appeared in her desk box was made by the class president, which Ji Ru Jing saw with her own eyes, but just didn't want her to be punished, Ji Ru Jing took the fall for her. And the second time to steal the pen is also not Ji Rujing do, is Liu Xing and Zhang Ruoxin's best friend to do, she felt that Ji Rujing can not match Zhang Ruoxin, and Liu Xing happens to like Zhang Ruoxin, she will do a supporting role with Liu Xing acted out a drama.
Liu Xing told Uncle Zhang that Zhang Ruoxin and Ji Ru Jing were often together, and Ji Ru Jing was equally unaware of it.
And those are already in the past, Ji Ru Jing no longer blames anyone, he thinks, it may be fate.
He is still taking care of the children at the orphanage, just as the director and all the uncles and aunts once took care of him.
Three years later. When I saw Zhang Ruoxin again, she could no longer see the sunlight, yes, she became blind.
Her father said to Ji Ru Jing: "Half a year ago, she hurt her eyes while doing experiments, and her cornea was broken, and she has been blind ever since. After this incident, Liu Xing also left her. Finally she said she wanted to come and see you."
Later, he pushed the wheelchair every day and took her to listen to the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, listen to the birds chirping, and listen to him describing for her the sound of flowers blooming and the sun shining.
"One day, I hope I can see the sunshine and see you." Zhang Ruoxin said.
Ji Ru Jing held her hand, "I will cure you, believe me."
"Well, I believe you."
After sending Zhang Ruoxin to the hospital, Ji Ru Jing disappeared.
After not hearing Ji Rujing's voice for three days, Zhang Ruoxin was so panicked that she couldn't eat.
She asked the doctor, "Uncle, where is the boy who brought me here? How come I haven't seen him these days?"
The doctor sighed and said, "Alas! After he sent you here, he said that he can't always bring a disabled person around, he has to marry and have children in the future."
Zhang Ruoxin was grief-stricken, she knew that she had been sorry for him, but she was truly fond of him ah! She thought everyone had left, at least he would be there, but he was still gone.
9.
A month later, Zhang Ruoxin walked out of the hospital and saw the sunshine.
She began to forget all the misfortunes and pains of the past, and embarked on the path of life again.
Three years later, she got married, the man was a year older than her, very much in love with her very much in love with her, they held hands into the marriage hall, she smiled happily.
Zhang Ruoxin brought her husband to visit the children in the orphanage. Saw a boy wearing sunglasses sitting on a reclining chair, his face was full of scruff, it seems that he has not taken care of it for a long time.
Zhang Ruoxin walked up to him and stopped to talk. At that moment a kid next to him said, "Don't disturb him, he is blind, please let him listen to the wind quietly."
Later, the doctor who treated Zhang Ruoxin's eyes gave her a letter.
The letter said, "Ruoxin, by the time you receive this letter, you may already be a wife and mother. I know your father despised me, but I never hated him. You said that you wished to see the sunlight, and I also said that I would cure your eyes. In fact, you don't know that it's because of your pendant that I have the faith to live. Please believe me, I will give you a sunny tomorrow, and I will lend you my eyes to see your spring world. Years later, please remember that I have loved you y."
Zhang Ruoxin ran to the orphanage out of breath, but never saw the man with sunglasses and a face full of scruff again.
Some say he is gone; others say he is dead.
