Part 2. Love Letter from That Year

Don’t grab onto my toes, they’re dirty.

“Xie Yi’s become infuriated with Xiao Yujing. He says that they just can’t work out their duet.”

“Did Xiao Yujing talk to you about Xie Yi? …No? Never? They’re always arguing. Xiao Yujing’s really patient then.”

“Xie Yi tells me all day long that he always that that Xiao Yujing was well-learned and had a gentle temperament. He never expected that she was so crazy when she played the violin. Xie Yi said that if she’s like that, she should just perform her violin solo.”

“But there’s nothing they can do now. They already promised Teacher Zhong. Xie Yi doesn’t feel good backing out, so he can only bite the bullet and learn the song.”

…

Pang Qian was laying on Gu Mingxi’s bed, flipping through the pages of Cartoon King. She was eating some beef jerky, her legs swinging in the air. She kept talking about Xie Yi. After she finished her beef jerky, she licked her fingers clean.

Gu Mingxi looked at her and then lowered his head to Pang Qian’s homework next to his feet. They were in different classes so their homework was very different. The advanced class moved at a much quicker pace than the other classes. The teacher already told them that by the time Year 2 ends, they should have finished learning the Year 3 material. Then they would spend Year 3 reviewing all the material for exams. But the other classes couldn’t use this method.

Fortunately, Gu Mingxi had already done the type of homework Pang Qian had, several days before. But he discovered a serious problem. Pang Qian’s math and science didn’t seem to follow the general pace. There was a lot of stuff she seemed to know, but also didn’t really know at the same time. Without spending a lot of time working on practice problems to support her knowledge, over the long run, her scores would only drop even more.

Gu Mingxi thought that he had to help her think of a plan. If they start supplementary lessons now, there was still time.

He said to Pang Qian on the bed, “Stop laying there. Come here. I’ll explain some of the physics questions you got wrong.”

Pang Qian rolled around and stretched, before pouting and saying, “Let me rest a little more. All the dance practice at school made me exhausted.”

Gu Mingxi put up with her. “Alright, then rest another 5 minutes.”

“5 minutes is too little. 10 minutes.”

She laid lazily on the bed for another while before finally getting up and walking over to Gu Mingxi’s desk to look at things curiously. The furniture in Gu Mingxi’s room hadn’t changed. It was just like before he moved away. He only took his desk and chair. They were custom-made for him, so others wouldn’t be able to use it.

Pang Qian saw a picture frame on the bookshelf. It was made of crystal, 8 inches wide. And inside was the group photo that Class 2 took on their summer trip.

Pang Qian also had a copy of the photo, but she never put it up. She picked up the picture frame and looked at it. “Where did you get this picture frame? It’s really pretty. It shines, and it’s pretty heavy.”

Gu Mingxi said, “Do you want it? I can give it to you.”

“…” Pang Qian didn’t know what to say. “Why are you just like Xiao Yujing? I can’t just compliment your things? I was just saying it casually, but then you guys both say you’ll give me the things. You make it seem like I’m asking for your things.”
