"Are you guys going out to play together today?" Zhou Moyang asked while standing under the street lamp.
"Have a meal with Hong Xiqi and the others." Tao You replied, but her tone was a little impatient. She just wanted to go home and calm down alone.
——————————————
Three minutes ago, Tao You was walking slowly with her head lowered and Song Yimian's words "I don't have anyone I like" echoing in her mind. She didn't know what was wrong with her, but there was something in her heart that she couldn't explain. of frustration and irritability.
The two were silent along the way. Song Yimian noticed that Tao You was not as good as before, but he didn't know the reason or how to comfort her.
"Did Hong Xiqi's parents take the croissants and egg tarts home at noon?" Song Yimian asked, always paying attention to Tao You's emotional changes, trying to find out what made her feel bad.
"Yeah." Tao You said perfunctorily.
Not because of this. Song Yimian's mind started to work at a high speed. Everything went smoothly during the day. He didn't suffer any loss from Luo Xiaowei and the others. He also won the game and had a good meal. What else could it be because of?
"Be careful!" Song Yimian suddenly pulled Tao You.
Only then did she realize that she almost matched the person in front of her. She looked up and saw Song Yimian's somewhat impatient look. The wave that had just been stirred up in her heart calmed down again, but her irritability suddenly rose.
Tao You pulled back his arm and hummed in response.
The people in front turned around when they heard the noise, and only then did Tao You see that it was Zhou Moyang.
————————————————————————
"I heard that you played against No. 13 Middle School today. I heard that they played very hard. How was the result?" Zhou Moyang took the initiative to find a topic.
Speaking of this, Tao You felt better again, and a smile appeared on his face: "We won."
"Congratulations, your hard work this semester has been in vain." Zhou Moyang was really happy for Tao You. He couldn't look away from Tao You until he heard a few slight coughs in his ears.
"Congratulations to you too." Zhou Moyang said to Song Yimian, who had been standing aside, as if he just remembered that there was someone standing next to him.
"Thank you." Song Yimian still had no good impression of Zhou Moyang. He glanced at him lightly and politely thanked him, unwilling to say another word to him.
Zhou Moyang's eyes returned to Tao You again, shook the phone in his hand, and said: "Tao You, I have watched all the ones you recommended to me last time and the TV. They are really good. I have also watched them these days. If you find something good, I’ll send you my phone number later.”
"Okay." Today's walk was too long, and his stomach started to feel uncomfortable again. Tao You just wanted to end the topic as soon as possible.
After Tao You finished speaking, the three of them were quiet for a moment.
Zhou Moyang continued to speak: "But there are some plots that I didn't fully understand. When do you have time to come out, we can discuss it together. We can also do homework together. I don't know how to do some topics, so we can discuss them together." He looked at Tao You nervously.
"Okay," Tao You nodded in agreement, ignoring Song Yimian's eyes next to her, "Then you set a time."
Seeing Tao You readily agree, Zhou Moyang jumped up and down with joy, "Are you free the day after tomorrow?"
"She's not free." Song Yimian was the first to answer, "We have to train, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, and we won't be free in the future. If you don't know how to do your homework, just ask the teacher and ask her what's the use, but she may not be able to do it. "
Tao You didn't like that Song Yimian answered for her without permission, but he had to admit that he was right. Zhou Moyang was so confused that he asked her to solve the problem.
"We will continue training later, and we don't know when it will end." Tao You explained, "As for the topic,"
"Why don't you add Song Yimian on WeChat? He will definitely be able to help. I guess I can't." Tao You pulled Song Yimian over and ignored his speechless expression of "I thank you."
Zhou Moyang opened his mouth and raised his hand somewhat mechanically: "That's okay, can I sweep you?"
——There’s nothing left to say now.
Tao You and the others added WeChat, and just as they opened their mouths to say goodbye, Zhou Moyang stole the topic again.
"Tao You, we can go out and play tennis together when we have time. I also plan to join the tennis club next semester. Can you help me see if I can be selected based on my level?" Zhou Mo
Yang showed his signature smile again, "I've just been studying for more than half a year, and I'm quite interested."
——Why is this child so blind?
"Tsk, it's not up to us to decide whether you can join the tennis club or not. It depends on Coach Tan. If you have good luck, you can get in even if you have no foundation. If you don't have good luck, unless your level is about the same as mine, there is no chance." Song Yimian put away his phone and spoke bluntly again, "If you are really interested, why don't you sign up when the first semester starts?"
"That's right," Tao You was also a little surprised. "In the first semester, many people with no foundation also entered. Moreover, clubs basically only recruit freshmen. In the second year of high school, they rarely change clubs. Some of them just quit. ”
Zhou Moyang watched Tao You and Song Yimian singing together, and scratched his head in confusion: "Yes. I was afraid of delaying my studies, so I didn't sign up."
"Then you won't delay now? Isn't the pressure of studying in the second year of high school even greater?" Song Yimian once again asked from his soul, why does this person talk so much, and all he talks is nonsense with no nutritional value. He slowly raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhou Moyang impatiently, his expression clearly reading "Have you finished speaking?" in big characters.
"that······"
"Be careful!" Song Yimian stepped in front of Tao You, and pulled Zhou Moyang with the other hand to block the staggering him in front of him.
At the same time, a car passed by the roadside. It had just rained and the roadside was full of water. The car passed by at high speed, causing a spray of water that was half a person's height.
"Zhou Moyang?" After the car passed, Tao You came out from behind Song Yimian and asked apologetically, "Are you okay?"
Zhou Moyang, who had become a drowned rat, opened his eyes, wiped the water on his face, pushed aside the wet hair on his forehead, twisted the soaked short sleeves in front, and the water dropped on the ground. His pants and shoes were also soaked. He shook his head and said, "It's okay."
"Ahem," Song Yimian glanced at Zhou Moyang, who was a little embarrassed, and then immediately looked away, suppressing the corners of his lips that wanted to raise, "Sorry, it's a reflex."
Tao You glared at Song Yimian, took out a pack of tissues from his schoolbag, "Wipe it quickly."
Zhou Moyang was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, which became a little transparent when it got wet. Seeing this, Song Yimian quickly squeezed in between the two of them, took Tao You's tissue, "I'll wipe it for you."
Tao Youzheng felt strange that Song Yimian would be so kind.
After she poked her head out from behind Song Yimian and saw clearly what was happening in front of Zhou Moyang, she knew.
Tao You moved his eyes away in embarrassment, his cheeks were slightly red, and he looked at a tree not far away and said, "Your clothes are soaked. Go home quickly and don't catch a cold. Let's go now, bye. .”
"Okay, bye." Zhou Moyang waved regretfully, as if he didn't want to end the topic so early.
————————————————————
After walking a certain distance, Song Yimian suddenly said: "Why are you blushing? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No." Tao You shook her head and was interrupted by Zhou Moyang. She also temporarily put the inexplicable feeling of loss behind her.
"You must be shy because of Zhou Moyang, right?" Song Yimian put his hands in his pockets and said this seemingly calmly. Only he himself knew how deep he felt at this moment. Nervous and apprehensive.
The moment Song Yimian finished speaking, Tao You stood up on tiptoes, reached out and slapped him on the head: "What are you talking about? Why are you so embarrassed!"
"I'm so hot! Aren't you bored?!"
Song Yimian rubbed the back of his head and rolled his eyes: "Yes, it's a bit boring." After saying that, he relaxed, okay, okay, it's not what he thought.
"If you feel hot, take a taxi home." Song Yimian skillfully hooked Tao You's shoulder and took out his mobile phone to call a taxi.
Tao You looked at the big, well-proportioned and slender hand on his shoulder, and the irritation in his heart returned. Even his scalp began to become itchy and extremely uncomfortable.
"Take it back with your hand." Tao You took Song Yimian's hand away, untied the hair rope, scratched his scalp vigorously, but felt it was indecent, so he tied it into a ponytail again, "I don't want to take a taxi."
Song Yimian advised: "Why, it's faster to take a taxi. It might rain again." He said and put his hand back again.
"We'll be there soon. Why are you wasting money? Don't put your hands on my shoulders." Tao You said in a bad tone.
The eyebrows also began to slowly come together.
"Good buddy, why are you so stingy when you put your shoulder on the shoulder?" Song Yimian said, but still put down his hand obediently.
Tao You's eyes widened, and her tone became even worse: "Who are you good friends with?" After saying that, she strode forward, as if she had a lot of anger with nowhere to vent it.
Song Yimian followed closely and said in a not too loud voice: "You just said it during the day. If you don't want to take a taxi, don't take a taxi. Whatever you do when you are angry, your mood will change from time to time. Wasn't it great to chat with that Zhou Moyang just now? "
Tao You still heard what he said, and there was wind under his feet, so he walked faster.
"Slow down, it's not a walking competition! I've never seen you walk that well before. Slow down! Your stomach will feel uncomfortable soon!" Song Yimian was taller and could easily catch up with Tao You.
——————————————————————
"Croissant, Egg Tart, I'm back." Tao You walked in and shouted out of habit. After closing the door, he realized that Croissant and Egg Tart had gone home, and Tao's mother had also returned.
Her heart twitched and she froze at the door for a moment, hoping that Mother Tao didn't hear.
"Croissant, egg tart? Who are you talking to?" Tao's mother came in from the balcony wearing a facial mask and asked strangely.
Tao You stopped walking towards the room and stumbled as he was unsteady on his feet, "No one, just two characters on TV."
——Almost exposed.
"I'm so confused." Tao's mother took off the mask and walked to the bathroom, "Why would someone call me such a name? What's the TV series called?"
Tao You's mind was stuck, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. He walked slowly to the sofa, turned on the fan, and stalled for time: "Just, I am following an anime recently, a character in the anime."
Tao's father also came out of the study at this moment, silently pointed at Tao You, and warned her not to spill the beans.
The father and daughter communicated silently until Tao's mother came out of the bathroom after cleaning up. She instantly regained her ferocious expression and slumped on the sofa, as if nothing had happened.
"Anime is just animation, no matter what TV series it is." Tao's mother turned on the TV and switched to the TV series she was watching. "I'm not at home, so you don't care about her. You just watch it on your phone every day." This was said to Tao's father.
"Hurry up and take a shower, do your homework for a while, go to bed early, and don't forget to stretch and relax your muscles."
——Fortunately, I was talking about anime that my mother was not interested in, so I was able to get over it.
——————————————————————
At night, Tao You lay on the bed, staring out the window in a daze. In her arms was the ugly doll that Song Yimian had caught for her before. She found it by accident when she cleaned the room last time, and she just put it beside the bed. .
It was getting late, and Tao You was too lazy to move, but his mind was extremely clear.
"Tell me, does Fatty Song have a stupid head? He is just a fool. Am I angry because I can't get a taxi?" Tao You looked at the ugly and cute baby and said to himself, "Isn't it because... ...No, I'm not angry, why should I be angry..." She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, forcing herself to brainwash herself. In the end, she lost her temper and punched the doll twice to vent her anger.
Tao You's mind was confused and she couldn't figure out her thoughts. She didn't know why she was so awkward, and she slowly fell asleep with her mind full of worries.
