Chapter 16 Chapter 15 Chicken and Duck Talk

Luo Zhi didn't see Sheng Huainan again for a long time.There was no text message, and Sheng Huainan didn't go to the second and third introductory law classes, but Zhang Mingrui sat next to her all the time. She casually asked where Sheng Huainan had gone, and Zhang Mingrui said that he skipped class because he was preparing for the debate.Their School of Biotechnology is in the process of passing the test, and they are very busy. Luo Zhi remembered seeing Tiffany's mother on the weekend of the first week after the National Day holiday. She mentioned to herself Jake's change, and the two children's love for the big brother who accompanied them all over the playground, and asked Luo Zhi about the boy Would you like to come to accompany Jake several times a week, and the two of you will be partners.

Luo Zhi agreed to ask for help. After returning from the amusement park, she was convinced that the weird and awkward atmosphere was not only her own illusion, she was waiting for Sheng Huainan's text message, waiting for his explanation - even if it was an apology, said clearly, I'm sorry I shouldn't have been impulsive. Take your hand - but nothing.She didn't take the initiative to contact.At that time, she didn't refuse and grabbed his hand tightly.How could he be so smart not to understand what her action meant. Luo Zhi knew that if it was possible for her to receive text messages from the other party again, it must be the mass text messages during Christmas.

But about Jake, she had to contact him.Otherwise, I have to go to tutoring in the afternoon, and there is no way to meet errands, so I reluctantly sent a text message, simply conveying the hostess' thanks and invitation, and tried my best to make the wording sound like nothing. It took a long time to get a reply. "You're welcome, I said I like them very much. But I'm sorry, I've been busy recently. The student union and the debate team have a lot of activities. Help me tell their mothers that I will often play with them when I have time, but it's not a full-time job. , and no money will be charged^^”

Luo Zhi was stunned.Is it mean to take money? She told herself, he didn't mean it, he wasn't mocking you, Luo Zhi, don't be narrow-minded, don't think too much, he didn't mean it... She almost forgot, and at the end of the Odyssey trip, he took advantage of the two children running to throw out the trash and asked her how many times a week she would go to tutor her. A child learns to play for eight hours. It seems that as soon as you close your eyes, you can see Sheng Huainan's calm face, and the faint sentence, "What a job, and such a cute child." "It's tiring to please children, but it's tiring to do any job, and it's really not easy to make money." She told him so sincerely at the time.She thought he would not misunderstand her.

She is so naive.How important is money, how would he know. He was still the little boy in the clean and nice children's suit, standing on the steps holding the ball and reaching out to her. It's just that she looked up to him from the beginning.Some postures hide humbleness and anger that are not easy to find. She tried her best to stand upright and walk towards a high place, but she still looked up at him. She told herself frantically, you think too much, you think too much.However, the tears turned countless times and fell down. "Are you okay?" Zhang Mingrui was a little flustered.

"It's okay." She wiped away her tears with a facial tissue and continued to copy notes, as if nothing happened just now. Nothing happened, the hand held by him, and the concealed contempt were all illusions. Zhang Mingrui looked at her silently for a long time.Sitting together in class these two times, he discovered that Luo Zhi was indifferent most of the time. In the class where only the two of them were alone, she hardly spoke, and she didn't know what she was thinking. There was a thick barrier Killed all Zhang Mingrui's unspoken words. However, at certain times, she was still reticent, but she had a lot of witty words, and she was able to continue the topic perfectly with simple words, and it was impressive.

At those times, she was awake, always ready to fight, and was trying to "present" Luo Zhi. At those times, it was the first time we met in the Fa Tuo class, and a certain person was there. There was a trace of inferiority and pity in Zhang Mingrui's eyes that he couldn't explain clearly. They are all like this.So is Luo Zhi, and so is she.He didn't understand it before, but now he understands everything. The autumn air has a special smell, cold and sweet, which Luo Zhi likes very much.She barely finished the first half of the class, put down her pen and rushed out of the teaching building, took a deep breath before she could stand still, until her lungs hurt, and then let it out slowly, the pain slowed down with her exhalation. Slowly calm down, and then take another deep breath... I repeated this a few times, and I felt much more comfortable.

It has been a long time since she went to the playground to run laps. Suddenly saw Zheng Wenrui at the door.After their long talk, every time Zheng Wenrui saw Luo Zhi in the teaching building, he would look away and squeeze his mouth together in embarrassment.Luo Zhi also pretended not to see her knowingly.Luo Zhi felt that she could understand her feelings, but the gate in her heart couldn't bear it, and she hurriedly found someone to confide in. When she calmed down, she would feel ashamed in retrospect, as if the listener was laughing with open mouth and no sympathy Just like myself, it was as embarrassing to be stripped naked.

Zheng Wenrui would not know, but they are actually very similar.She has no right to laugh at anything.What's more, what she felt was more fear. Luo Zhi suddenly remembered the phrase "she's coming back". She remembered that the sudden turnaround that day came after Ye Zhanyan's new message.Has Ye Zhanyan turned around? so what.The focus wasn't on Ye Zhanyan at all.Luo Zhi smiled bitterly. I suddenly wanted to call my mother and ask her if she was doing well. It was already so cold in the north, would my knees hurt? Luo Zhi knew that even though she was bathing in the golden sunshine every week and playing Frisbee carefree with her beautiful brother and sister on the grass with the golden retriever, she still felt her own heaviness and fear all the time.She needs to always remember that the same world, the same dream, but not the same fate.

Their trajectories intersect only occasionally. But Sheng Huainan would not know.He may be able to understand, but he will never be able to understand, will never understand Luo Zhi's hurt expression. All of these are entangled, Luo Zhi feels for the first time that they are so far away.In the past, she deliberately distanced herself, so the distance seemed to be caused by herself, at least she didn't feel embarrassed when thinking about it.But now, trembling, she stretched out her hand once, wanting to refuse, and found that it was really far away, and she couldn't reach it at all, and the gesture of reaching out was laughed at by the other party.

When entering the room, Zhang Mingrui suddenly approached her mysteriously and said, I was texting Sheng Huainan just now, and he described all the beauties in your high school to me. " "Oh?" "He mentioned you too." "Stop it." "Tsk tsk, you beauties like to be humble on the surface and happy in your heart." "Everyone is hypocritical." "Look, did you admit it?" "Admit what? I really wasn't considered a beauty in high school." "why?" "En..." Luo Zhi pretended to think about it seriously, "The little boys in high school only focus on girls who dress up early and behave like adults, and haven't learned to appreciate me yet." She stared at him and smiled brazenly, Zhang Mingrui blushed all of a sudden. Although he was a little darker, his blushing was still visible. "Hey, look, I'm not humble and you're acting like this again, making people live." Zhang Mingrui came back to his senses, cleared his throat and said, "Really, the two of us really mentioned you. Sheng Huainan said that in high school, apart from playing basketball and reading basketball magazines, the only fun they had was searching for Beauties are on the list. As long as they are a little bit pretty," Zhang Mingrui deliberately emphasized the last four words, "all of them will be included in the list." "and then?" Zhang Mingrui raised his eyebrows and said, "Then, and then, Sheng Huainan just said—" He stared at Luo Zhi, holding back a smile. "He said he never paid attention to you in high school." After he finished speaking, the two remained silent for a few seconds. Zhang Mingrui suddenly squatted on the ground and laughed. "Luo Zhi, I'm mad at you!" After saying this sentence about the IQ level of elementary school students, he happily ran away.Still jumping and jumping, a lock of hair on the back of the head fluctuates and jumps with the movement, and the back looks like a child who got candy. At this time, the phone vibrated, and Sheng Huainan's text message came at the right time. "Sorry, he asked me if I knew you in high school. I said I never paid attention to you. He was very happy and said that he would take revenge on you with this sentence. Who made you always choke him. I'm sorry..." She can't laugh or cry. Naturally, she wouldn't have the same knowledge as Zhang Mingrui who acted like a child, Luo Zhi still felt a little bitter. Anyway, didn't really notice it at all? really?Not at all? Many of her conjectures in high school are now answered ruthlessly one by one. She sat on her seat and flipped through the handouts aimlessly. After a few minutes, her phone vibrated again. "Angry?" Luo Zhi really wanted to say, I have been angry since a long time ago. But she didn't have the guts to say it, because she cared about this vague and fragile relationship.Who cares who can't eat and walk around "My heart is broken all over the ground, and I am fighting back piece by piece. Help me tell Zhang Mingrui that I have surrendered." "Anyway, I apologize," he replied. "Your apologies are always weird. First you apologized for Zhang Mingrui liking me, and now you apologize for not knowing me in high school. It doesn't matter what you want me to say?" Sheng Huainan did not reply. It was time for class to start, Zhang Mingrui returned to his seat with a glass of water in his hand, carefully watching Luo Zhi's expression. "Are you angry?" "Actually, no, but to sell you face—well, I'm so mad." "Selling my face?" "Isn't it your purpose to piss me off?" "Who said this?!" Zhang Mingrui blushed again, and turned his face away to ignore her. At this time, she still coped with it freely, without any embarrassment.She has such a useful mask. Zhang Mingrui is careless, but he is very good at playing tricks on his buddies.He asked Sheng Huainan what Luozhi High School was like, and Sheng Huainan's answer was that he hadn't noticed it, and only knew that he was the first in the liberal arts class. He didn't know why he had to hurt her.As if it would be fun to watch her lose control. Or just trying to wake her up.As if she woke up, then the other person will see more clearly.
