Melodious light music sounded, and the teacher on the podium just finished explaining the last test question.

"Okay, get out of class is over."

He arranged the lesson plans and exercise books, tucked them under his arm and left Class 1, Grade 2.

The classroom that was lifeless just now suddenly became lively. Some people were lying on the table to catch up on their sleep. Some people took out portable packages of butter bread and milk to add snacks. More students were working in groups. The girls were smiling and shaking hands.

Holding hands to go to the toilet, the boys gathered in a group and talked about sports and games.

"Hahahahaha, what! How do I remember that the last word was - wow!"

The boy put his hands on the table and chatted happily. When he got excited, he accidentally waved his classmate's pencil case to the ground in front of him.

"Damn!" the owner of the pencil bag cursed with a smile and bent down to pick it up.

As he was picking it up, he saw a pen rolled under the girl's chair at the front desk, so he reached out and patted her shoulder.

"Hey! That..."

The boy didn't remember her name for a moment, but fortunately the girl had turned her head. She had thick bangs, gray glasses, ordinary yellow skin and ordinary freckles. There were no iconic features that people could remember.

"...What's wrong?" She moved her lips.

"Um, pen, help me pick it up, thank you." The boy said carelessly.

"Oh."

The girl moved her chair and leaned down to pick up the pen.

By the time she put the pen back on the boy's desk, the boy was already chatting animatedly with his buddies without even paying any attention to her.

The girl turned around silently.

"Liang Susu!" Someone came over and asked, "Where is the hair tie you mentioned before?"

"Ah?" The girl raised her head and opened her mouth again and again, "I...I didn't wear it today."

"Oh, okay."

The female student who came to ask her shrugged casually, returned to her seat with an indifferent expression, and soon started chatting with the people around her. It seemed that she just remembered something trivial and asked casually.

The girls looked at them and kept looking until the bell rang.

……

Liang Susu is a student.

School is a society for adolescent boys and girls, and class is their social circle.

A circle has a center, just like a pyramid must have a top.

People with good grades.

A beautiful person.

A person whose family is rich and powerful.

A person who can sing, play the piano, dance and calligraphy.

A person who has good motor skills and is good at fighting.

A person who really has no special skills but can tell jokes to make everyone happy.

These people are the so-called "top" existences.

They have their own small group with many friends, and they can always find companions to chat with and share their daily life.

If everything is divided according to class, then they are undoubtedly the "upper class" people in the class.

People like Liang Susu, who have average grades, average looks, and mediocre personalities, without any advantages or even any distinctive characteristics, are the "poor" in the class.

Even the poor student whose report card and seat are at the bottom will get a little extra attention, but she is not good, she is too ordinary, so ordinary that she has no sense of existence, she is neither good nor bad from beginning to end, and there is no highlight at all.

Want to be noticed.

Want to be noticed.

If you want to be the center of the crowd, no, as long as you can blend into the circle of "upper-class" people.

Liang Susu tightened her cuffs of her school uniform.

School uniforms are a good thing in a sense. Everyone, regardless of gender, grade, rich or poor, wears the same thing.

This is a method used by schools and teachers to balance the gap between students and treat them equally.

But everyone always has a way to find ways to show differences. As mentioned before, grades, appearance, etc.

These "hard standards" are difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

Fortunately, God is kind and can always leave a channel.

For example, girls’ hair ties.

"Popular items" appear in the class circle every once in a while, becoming a topic of concern and hot discussion.

If you can catch up with the trend, you can strike up a conversation with classmates you are not familiar with.

So at that time, Liang Susu couldn't help but feel short of breath. She thought, she couldn't compare to the others and couldn't get them out, but the hair tie was already the lowest threshold to squeeze into the class social circle. Now she could do it.

She began to pay attention to the preferences of girls. In fact, there is no fixed standard for "popular items". Everyone always likes novel things. Mengmeng's hair band was printed with a circle of small butterflies, so she was shouted cute. Qiqi's hair band

The circle has log lines and a delicate pendant. It is classic and elegant, and has attracted many envious glances.

The hair tie used by Liang Susu is the most common elastic black hair tie. It has no decorations and can be found everywhere. You can buy a bunch with ten payment points.

She wants a nice hair tie.

It looks good, is expensive, and is conspicuous when worn. In short, it is a hair tie that can attract others' attention and even make them envy and praise it.

Liang Susu picked one online.

This hair tie is light pink, looks like a soft and fluffy cloud, very cute, and it is also inlaid with sparkling crystal diamonds, which is dazzling.

More importantly, it comes from a famous brand. It is hand-customized, has complicated processes and a long construction period. If the customer needs it, she can also have her own initials engraved on the hanging chain, making it unique.

Every element is so fashionable, high-end and eye-catching.

This is it!

Liang Susu gritted her teeth as she looked at the price tag of 12,866 payment points.

She secretly swiped her parents' credit card, trembling with fear during the payment process, but finally made up her mind and punched the confirmation button on the screen.

"Huh..."

Liang Susu's heart was beating fast, her face was covered with sweat, and she took a long breath.

She looked at the dilapidated ceiling with hope in her eyes, as if she could foresee the scene of everyone surrounding her, curiously discussing her hair tie.

Then, Liang Susu removed the traces and put her father's mobile phone back to its original place.

The man was still sleeping on the floor not far away, snoring loudly and unaware of what his daughter was doing.

Liang Susu glanced at him with a complicated expression, curled her lips, returned to her bed, and fell asleep with dreamy expectations.

……

Liang Susu has been waiting for a long time.

She didn't expect that the handmade custom hair tie would take so long to make, as long as two months.

During this period, Liang Susu's secret swiping of credit cards was discovered by her father. He was so angry that his whole face was so hideous that he took her to the corridor of the old building and beat her.

The man cursed so loudly that the whole building could hear it. Liang Susu huddled in a corner with her leg so painful from being kicked.

After a while, he was going to go out to work, so he put both house keys on his body, leaving Liang Susu to stand outside and reflect.

Liang Susu nestled in the corner for a few minutes, took a breath, stood up, and simply ran out. From then on, she started to have a hobby of hanging out when her father was not at home.

A few days later, the express delivery she had been longing for finally arrived.

Liang Susu carefully unpacked the package and washed her hands three times before taking out the customized hair tie and holding it in her hands. It was more beautiful than she imagined, soft, light and shiny, as if it could only be found in the castle.

Only a little princess deserves to wear such a hair accessory.

The next day, Liang Susu solemnly put on her ponytail and went to school with her schoolbag on her back.

No one paid attention to her.

From morning to evening, she studied in class, as usual, no one looked at her twice, no one came to talk to her, everyone was talking and laughing in their own small circle, very happy.

...Look at me!

Liang Susu opened her mouth.

She looked at the other female classmates laughing and packing their schoolbags and leaving the classroom, and then she realized that too much time had passed.

Hair ties have long been out of fashion.

No one is interested anymore.
