Chapter 13 Section 12

Things are just as Yang Yang said: what should come will come naturally.Zhou Zhou is the girl who is destined to appear in my life at this moment. She floated like a petal and landed on my shoulder.
One afternoon, our class had a football match with class (2).We call the members of class (2) the "second child". (2) In the class, there is a student surnamed Zhu who plays forward quickly, a student surnamed Wu who organizes the offense, a student surnamed Shan who is responsible for blocking our attack, and a student surnamed Mai who guards the goal.In this way, their class consists of Zhu Laoer, Wu Laoer, Shan Laoer and Mai Laoer to form a front that can attack and defend, and compete with our team.That day Wu Lao Er was unable to play because of a stomachache, which resulted in a 3:1 loss to us in class (2).The three goals of our class were all arranged by me. The goal of class (2) was scored by Zhu Laoer. At that time, all the players in our class pressed forward to attack. Throwing the ball to the frontcourt, Zhu Lao Er was unguarded after receiving the ball, and he went straight into the penalty area. At the holding position 10 meters away from the goal, Shan Lao Er shouted to him, "Shoot, shoot!" Trembling, shot the ball into the gate.
My feet felt very good that day, and my desire to shoot was particularly strong.On the way back to the dormitory, I pointed to a big tree in the distance and said to Yang Yang: "Do you believe it? I can kick that tree with one kick." The football is kicked towards the tree.The football left my feet, drew an upward arc and jumped forward. The ball was getting closer and closer to the tree. When it was about to hit the tree, it suddenly changed its trajectory like a ghost. It slid across the bark, and flew towards a girl walking by with a thermos.The ball started to fall, unbiased, and just hit the thermos that the girl was carrying.
"Oops!" With a scream, the inner liner of the thermos pot was shattered into pieces, and the hot water in the pot emitted white steam and spread on the ground.The girl was carrying an empty blue hollowed-out tin kettle shell, and looked towards us angrily. She pouted her small mouth and stared at her big eyes angrily. Her delicate body stood motionless, very beautiful.
Yang Yang kicked my ass and said, "Go quickly, your chance has come."
I hurried over, apologized repeatedly and said I'm sorry, and asked considerately: "Student, did you burn yourself?"
"Why don't you watch the football!" It seemed that she hadn't been burned.
"He just kicked when he saw you. His footwork is very accurate. You must not go around him, he did it on purpose." Yang Yang has already walked in front of us at this moment.
"Really?" The girl asked me seriously.
"No! Yes! Yes and no! No and also!" I was at a loss for a moment.
The girl was amused by my embarrassment and showed an indifferent look.
"Your pants are all wet." I still feel a little sorry.
"It's okay, I'll just go back and change one." The girl said.
"Your thermos is broken, or use mine first!" I said.
"No, I'll just get another one when I get home next week."
"No! Then you will have no hot water for several days, I am so sorry. You wait for me here, I will get you my thermos." I ran to the dormitory excitedly, and heard Yang Yang say to the girl behind me: "My buddy is just kind-hearted and helpful."
Running back to the dormitory, I picked up my thermos and ran downstairs. When I reached the fourth floor, I suddenly remembered something, so I ran back to the dormitory again, took a rag and wiped the dust on the thermos. After carefully crafting, he rushed out of the dormitory again.
I forced the thermos to the girl, and she said, "I'm so sorry, what do you use?"
I said, "I don't need anything..."
Yang Yang interjected, "He doesn't wash his face or feet and drinks raw water, so you can use it with confidence!"
The girl pursed her lips and tried to laugh but didn't.
I pointed to Yang Yang and said to the girl: "He washes his face and feet and drinking water are not separated at all."
The girl finally couldn't hold back and laughed. She asked me, "How do I return the thermos to you?"
I said, "I live in 540."
"Okay, see you later." The girl turned around and walked towards the water room after she finished speaking.
I still want to say something to her, but she has already told me to see you later, so it is inconvenient for me to pester her.
On the way back to the dormitory, I remembered a very important thing, and went back to find that girl.
-The girl had already finished boiling water and was about to enter the building. I called her to stop.She turned her head and saw that it was me, so she stepped back and asked me what was the matter?
I asked her, "Where do you live?"
"137." The girl squawked at a window on the first floor and said, "It's right here."
"What's your name?"
"Zhou Zhou."
"Oh, all right, you go in."
Zhou Zhou walked up the steps, and before entering the building, he did not forget to look back at me and smile, and I also grinned silly.I feel that my thermos is so vivid in Zhou Zhou's hand.
At night, just as I was about to take off my clothes and go to bed, the dormitory’s pager rang with the gruff voice of the gatekeeper: “The one at 540 who doesn’t have a thermos comes down, someone is looking for him!”
Yang Yang asked me: "Did it mean you?"
I heard it again, and the old man was still saying: "Whoever doesn't have a thermos in 540, come down quickly, someone is looking for it!"
"It's about me, I'll go down and have a look." I put on my shoes again.
I ran to the first floor and asked the old man, "Master, I'm the one in 540 who doesn't have a kettle. Who's looking for me?"
The old man squinted his eyes and said, "I've been waiting for a long time."
I saw Zhou Zhou standing at the door of the boys building with my thermos in hand, so I walked over.
Zhou Zhou said, "You haven't washed it yet, have you?"
I said, "I don't need it, you should take it back and use it!"
Zhou Zhou said: "I've finished washing, and I'll leave half a pot of water for you." Only then did I realize that Zhou Zhou was wearing a pair of fluffy cartoon slippers on his feet, and his hair was loose on his shoulders, looking quite cute.
I took the thermos and said, "Thank you."
Zhou Zhou said: "The lights are about to turn off, I have to go back."
When I said goodbye to Zhou Zhou, I didn't forget to say to her: "Actually, I'm not as unhygienic as Yang Yang said, I just don't wash occasionally."
"Who is Yang Yang?"
"It's the guy I was with today, he hasn't washed his feet in almost a month."
"Then you are miserable."
"I'm used to it."
"what's your name?"
"My name is Qiu Fei."
"Oh. Well, bye."
"Bye-Bye."
When I soaked my feet in the boiling water sent by Zhou Zhou, a sense of happiness spread from my toes to all parts of my body and spread out along the pores, filling my surroundings.
I had a very comfortable sleep that night.
Yang Yang said that when he got up the next morning, he saw a smile on the corner of my mouth. He couldn't bear to wake me up and went to class, but when I was experiencing happiness in my sleep, I was once again marked as absent from class by the teacher.

I found that I fell in love with Zhou Zhou. She not only brought me the warm feeling when washing my feet every night, but also made me excited and found a new direction in my life.
I was thinking of a way to express my love to Zhou Zhou, but it was either too abrupt, or too gross, or so pretentious that it made people laugh.I wandered up and down the campus, expecting a whim, but each idea was completely dismissed before it could be concretized.I always feel that this is the crucial first step, not only to step out, but also to step gracefully, with a moderate distance, and to lay a solid foundation for the second step. In short, things must be done Not lukewarm, everything is just right.
A postbox suddenly appeared in front of my eyes. I wondered if I could write a letter to Zhou Zhou. This is both subtle and euphemistic, and everything is in the text, but I feel that the way of writing letters does not conform to my straightforward personality, and If Zhou Zhou had no other intentions other than wanting me to insist on washing my feet every day, then this letter would definitely cause embarrassment when we meet in the future.
For this matter, I thought hard for a whole morning, and then lost my mind for a whole afternoon.At night, I lay on the bed tossing and turning, thinking about it but couldn’t understand it. I asked them to help me think of a good idea, but they used the topic to make use of it. attitude, I am still very grateful.
I looked up to the sky and screamed: "Fuck it, what the hell should I tell Zhou Zhou!"
"Don't...don't talk, go to sleep!" Zhang Chaofan stopped our conversation in order to ensure that he could get up on time tomorrow and go to class.
After hearing Zhang Chaofan's words, Yang Yang lay on the bed and laughed.

After a whole night of rational and emotional struggle, at dawn the next day, I decided to go all out and confide to Zhou Zhou directly, but now I desperately need to supplement sleep.
In the evening of that day, I washed and dressed carefully and went out. I came to the front of the girls' building and shouted to the window of Zhou Zhou's dormitory: "Zhou Zhou!"
The window opened, and a strange girl's face appeared, she said to me: "Zhou Zhou went to the library to borrow books, what do you want?"
I said: "It's okay, I'll wait for her outside." So I stood in the garden corridor in front of the girl's building and waited for Zhou Zhou to come back.
The moonlight shone down, and the ground was silver and white. I couldn't help shivering all over my body. I don't know if it was because of the cold weather or nervousness.A boy was also waiting here for a certain girl in this building. After a while, the girl came out, and the two went arm in arm.
At this time, a figure came, and based on my impression of Zhou Zhou's walking posture, I felt that it was Zhou Zhou.
Sure enough, Zhou Zhou came back with a schoolbag on her shoulders. She didn't expect that I would wait for her here. I called her, and she looked for me, and walked over with a smile.
"Have you borrowed books?"
"Well, how do you know?"
"I heard what the girls in your dormitory said. Have you eaten yet?"
"I didn't eat, why, do you want to treat me?" Zhou Zhou smiled sweetly.
"I haven't eaten either. Let's eat together!"
"Good"
"Let's go!"
"Wait a minute, I'll put the schoolbag back first."
"I'll wait for you here."
"I'll be out right away." Zhou Zhou turned his head and ran back to the dormitory.
After a while, Zhou Zhou came out, followed by the girl just now. "This is my classmate, Shen Li." Zhou Zhou introduced to me, "His name is Qiu Fei, the boy who kicked my thermos into pieces with a football."
"Hello!"
"Hello!" Shen Li and I greeted each other.
"Where are we going to eat?" I asked.
"casual."
"Then come with me!"
We came to the small restaurant where Yang Yang and I often drank, picked a table next to the window and sat down. The waiter brought the menu and asked us what to eat. I called her affectionately: elder sister.
The waiter took a closer look, it was me, and said, "You're here again, why didn't your buddy come?"
"He's having a hard time today," I said casually.
After we ordered, the waiter said before taking away the menu: "You bring him something for me." I knew she was talking about Yang Yang.
I said, "Don't worry, I will definitely bring it. Sister, hurry up and serve the food, we are all hungry."
The waiter said, "Okay," and left.
Zhou Zhou asked me: "How do you know the waiter so well?"
"Yang Yang and I often come here to drink, and once we stayed here overnight."
"Why do you boys like to drink?" Shen Li asked.
"I can't say I like it, but sometimes I get upset and want to drink."
"What's bothering you? Do you think the homework is heavy?" Zhou Zhou asked me.
"It's not just the learning confusion, there are many things that bother me."
"I didn't expect you to be a little sentimental." Zhou Zhou pursed his lips and smiled.
"Hey, maybe, I wasn't like that in high school."
"What were you like back then?" Zhou Zhou asked again.
"It was a sunny day, and I was a sunny boy. I lived carefree every day, eating, sleeping, playing, and studying without delay." I talked about my high school life in high spirits, talking about Then, I squinted out the window and saw Yang Yang enter a small shop across the road.I thought maybe he hadn't eaten yet, so it was just two-on-two to call him.I said, "Yang Yang is outside, I'll call him in, let's eat together."
Zhou Zhou said, "Okay!"
When Yang Yang came in, he was holding a pack of "Dubao" that hadn't been opened yet. After I introduced them, Yang Yang sat on the empty seat beside me and opened a cigarette, and handed me one. Before I had time to think about it, I took it over.I glanced at Zhou Zhou, she was staring at me.
When the waiter brought the food, he saw Yang Yang and asked, "Is it better?"
I quickly took the words: "Sister, thanks to your concern just now, he has recovered now."
"That's good!" The waiter went to serve the dishes again.
Yang Yang looked at us confusedly, not knowing what was going on.I explained: "Just now she asked why you didn't come, and I said you were sick."
"Someone still thinks of me, I'm really touched." Yang Yang said again, "Drinking today?"
I said, "Forget it, let's drink alone another day."
"If you want to drink, drink it!" Zhou Zhou said.
"Okay, sister, take two bottles of beer." I greeted the waiter. "By the way, what do you two drink?" I asked Zhou Zhou and Shen Li.
Zhou Zhou said, "Don't drink anything."
Yang Yang said, "Why don't you two have some beer too?"
Zhou Zhou and Shen Li looked at each other and said, "Okay."
Yang Yang poured them each a glass and said, "Drink it first, if it's not enough, there's more."
The dishes were almost ready, Yang Yang suggested that we raise our glasses and have a clink, and asked me to say a few words.I picked up the wine glass and said, "Eat and drink well, everyone, don't give way to men."
Yang Yang said, "Are you a man?"
"Hit you, stop talking nonsense." I wanted to show off my beard, but what I reached out to touch was a bald chin, and I shaved it on purpose before I came out.
I took a bite of the dish and asked Zhou Zhou, "What book did you borrow from the library?"
Zhou Zhou said: "I wanted to borrow a novel to read, but there are too many books in the library. I didn't know what to borrow, so I came back empty-handed."
Yang Yang said: "It's okay, next time ask Qiu Fei to go with you, he reads a lot of books, let him recommend some good ones for you."
"Have you seen it?" Zhou Zhou asked me.
"It's too pediatric. I finished reading it in the history class of the second year of high school."
"Whose book do you like to read?" Zhou Zhou asked again.
"Haruki Murakami has read a lot, but the more I read it, the more I feel sick: Kawabata Yasunari has read a few books, and I used it as a pornographic book at the time, along with the textbooks on physiology and hygiene; I read all Wang Shuo's novels Yes, it is a stimulant before fighting, a series of guidance books before picking up girls, of course, this is in the eyes of others, I think he has written the novel thoroughly; I have also read Yu Hua's book, and it shocked me "" Do you have a novel written by Yu Hua?" Zhou Zhou asked me.
"Yes, I will lend it to you later." Zhou Zhou and I have entered the stage where Mr. Qian Zhongshu said that borrowing books is the beginning of love.
The two bottles of beer were finished, and I asked the waiter to bring two more bottles. When she brought the beer, she did not forget to say, "Drink less."
I found that the waiter's eye sockets were a little dark, probably because she hadn't slept for several nights, she didn't want to be unable to sleep tonight because of me and Yang Yang.I said, "Sister, don't worry, we won't delay your sleep."
-
The waiter hugged me with an understanding smile and left.Yang Yang glanced at his watch and said, "It's okay, it's early, it's only a quarter past seven!"
After paying the bill, we walked out of the restaurant.I glanced at my watch, it was almost ten o'clock, I asked Zhou Zhou and Shen Li, "Where are you going?"
Shen Li said, "I have to go back and do my homework, which is due tomorrow."
Zhou Zhou didn't say anything, so I asked her, "Aren't you in a hurry to go back?"
Zhou Zhou said, "I've finished my homework, so I'm not in a hurry to go back."
Yang Yang patted my shoulder with great interest and said, "I'm going back to the dormitory first."
The lights in the teaching building have been extinguished, and the moonlight and street lamps illuminate the school’s corridor. Zhou Zhou and I walked side by side on it, and looked at each other tacitly. Zhou Zhou smiled slightly, and I asked her, “What are you laughing at?”
"Nothing." Zhou Zhou's answer made me momentarily at a loss.
We had reached the intersection at this time, and I said, "Let's go for a stroll in the playground."
"Yeah." Zhou Zhou nodded in agreement.We didn't turn a corner and walked directly to the playground.
We walked around the runway on the playground, talking about the anecdotes that happened around us, and Zhou Zhou couldn't stop laughing at the stories I told.
I don't know how many laps we walked around the playground. Later, Zhou Zhou wanted to sit down and rest, so I asked, "Tired?"
"A little bit." Zhou Zhou took out two tissues from his pocket and placed them on the stone steps of the stand.
Zhou Zhou said, "I'm almost hungry, how about you?"
I didn't eat the staple food and only drank a few bottles of beer. After Zhou Zhou's reminder, I also felt a little hungry.I said: "Let's go eat mutton skewers, the one downstairs in our dormitory is very delicious."
"Is it clean?"
"Clean, I have eaten it several times, and I have never had any adverse reactions. The only sequelae is that the more I eat, the more I like it."
"Then let's go." Zhou Zhou and I left Caochang
On the way to eat lamb kebabs, when we passed the girl's building, it turned from brightly lit to dark in an instant.Zhou Zhou said "Oops": It's broken.Then he said goodbye to me and stepped into the building before the man on duty locked the door.After Zhou Zhou entered the building, she waved to me through the window. I couldn’t hear what she was saying through the window when I walked over. According to my judgment, she seemed to be saying: It’s a pity that I didn’t eat the mutton skewers. go.
I nodded, and Zhou Zhou waved goodbye to me with a smile, and I opened my mouth to say goodbye, watching her disappear at the corner of the balcony.
In the evening, Yang Yang intentionally chatted with me about Zhou Zhou, and naturally went straight to the topic—Shen Li.Yang Yang said he wanted to get along with Shen Li, and asked me if there was any drama.I said that as long as Zhou Zhou and I get back together, you and Shen Li will definitely have fun, and I will ask Zhou Zhou to match you two later, and it will definitely happen.
