She leaned on Lu Zhinian's shoulder and cried until she had a headache. Later, she felt a little embarrassed and kept her head down, not daring to look at him.
Back at the hotel, she refused to go upstairs with him and insisted on waiting for him downstairs.
Lu Zhinian looked at someone who had been pointing his head towards him, and patted her head helplessly, told her not to run around, then turned and went upstairs to get her mobile phone.
There were people coming and going in front of the hotel, so she found a secluded place to wait for him. Her head was a little hazy, and she buried her face in her hands in frustration.
She shouldn't be like this today.
Over the years, from a little princess who was surrounded by stars to a poor child who was dependent on others, she had already built an iron wall in the center of the ridicule and ridicule from others. He won't be easily saddened by other people's sarcastic words, and he won't open his heart because of a word or two of concern.
But she is not a child who has never eaten sweets. She was also surrounded by happiness, with a happy family and friendly playmates. When the happiness she once had suddenly attacked her, she wanted to push it away but had no strength.
She is just a child of fifteen or sixteen, and she also longs for the warmth of reality.
A familiar voice came from the door of the hotel.
Tang Mi jogged to catch up with Jiang Minghao, who was striding ahead. "Hey, don't walk so fast. I can't even keep up."
The tone was complaining, but it had a hint of coquettishness.
Jiang Suichu was in the shadow under the tree. It was dark, so they didn't see her. Jiang Suichu's eyes were still a little red and swollen at the moment, and he had no intention of going out to say hello to them, but he was just a little confused as to why they were together.
Jiang Minghao was holding a lunch box in his hand, but he didn't slow down when he heard Tang Mi's voice.
Tang Mi came back to pick up something after leaving something at the hotel. She came back from the bonfire party early and wanted to try her luck in the staff canteen, but she didn't expect it to happen to her.
At that time, Jiang Minghao was sitting by the restaurant window eating alone. Tang Mi quietly walked over and stood opposite him, trying to pretend to have a chance encounter.
She swallowed nervously, "Hello, can I sit here?"
Jiang Minghao, who was immersed in eating, raised his head when he heard the sound, raised his thin eyelids, glanced at her, and then glanced at the countless empty seats around the canteen.
He said quietly: "There is room over there."
The voice was cold and without any warmth, and the meaning was clear. There are empty seats all around, so don't sit here wherever you want.
He was not wearing a hat today, and as she had guessed, he had a very short head. The short stubble is black and close to his scalp, coupled with his pair of cold red and phoenix eyes, giving people a sense of oppression that no strangers should approach.
But she was Tang Mi, and she had been loved by many people since she was little. Even if she wanted the stars in the sky, someone would build a ladder to pick them down for her.
His attitude would only arouse her desire to conquer.
She didn't seem to hear what he said and sat down directly opposite him. She put her pale arms on the table and looked at him with her cheeks in her hands.
As she sat down, a faint fragrance hit her face. Jiang Minghao stopped his chopsticks and lazily raised his eyelids to look at her.
Seeing that he finally looked up at her from the fish-flavored shredded pork in front of her, she immediately tilted her head and smiled sweetly at him.
"What a coincidence."
Jiang Minghao raised his eyebrows slightly, "What a coincidence?"
Seeing his look, Tang Mi seemed to not remember herself, so she pouted a little aggrievedly, "You won't forget me, right?"
Hearing what she said, Jiang Minghao took a closer look at the person opposite him. After a while, he remembered that it was the classmate from No. 1 Middle School who Jiang Suichu had saved by interfering in other people's business.
Seeing her look like you don't remember me, how could you not remember me, I felt funny.
He suddenly felt teasing, sneered, and asked her, "Should I remember you?"
After saying that, he picked up the chopsticks again, not caring at all that there was a beautiful woman sitting in front of him, raking the rice on the plate with rough movements.
Tang Mi, who was opposite, was confused by his rhetorical question, her cheeks bulging like a kitten about to explode. This was the first time a boy talked to her like this, and she was so angry.
But...why is he so handsome? His wheat-colored skin, tough facial features, strong arms, and muscles that make people want to poke them. Even the action of taking a big mouthful of food makes people's blood flow. a feeling of.
Forget it, she will always surrender to appearance.
A compromise from Yan Gou.
Jiang Minghao thought that she would leave voluntarily because he had lost her face, but he didn't expect that she would secretly become infatuated with him.
He finished the last bite of his meal, picked up his plate and glanced at the person opposite him who was staring blankly, twitched the corner of his mouth and stood up to leave.
Could this woman's look be more blatant? That look was enough to knock him down.
When he came to his senses, Jiang Minghao had already packed another meal at the window and walked out without caring about her.
She quickly followed, "Why didn't you call me when you were leaving?"
"Are we familiar...?" Jiang Minghao stopped. Before he could finish his words, he was staggered by Tang Mi who caught up and didn't stop.
Her head hit his chest, which was hard. Tang Mi covered her forehead and looked at him with tears.
"Why are you so hard!"
.....
Jiang Minghao originally wanted to see if the collision was serious, but after hearing what she said, he could no longer put down his raised hand.
But this girl didn't feel that there was any ambiguity in her words, so she said another sentence arrogantly.
"You hurt me, you have to take responsibility."
Looking at her cunning little expression, Jiang Minghao chuckled, "You bumped into it yourself. I haven't asked you to take responsibility yet, you..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by her.
"That's okay, I'm responsible for you." Tang Mi seemed to feel no pain suddenly. She took out her phone and looked at him with bright eyes, "Add a WeChat account?"
Jiang Minghao was so surprised by how quickly she transformed that he didn't react for a moment, and it took him a moment to realize that he had been tricked.
He didn't answer the call, didn't add a WeChat message, turned around and left. Tang Mi followed her to the hotel, but he didn't say a word to her.
Jiang Suchu watched Tang Mi chirping as she followed Jiang Minghao into the hotel lobby and walked towards the staff dormitory. Less than a minute after they entered, Lu Zhinian appeared at the door of the hotel with his mobile phone. Obviously, he didn't see Jiang Suchu and was looking around for her.
Just as Jiang Suichu was about to go over, he looked over and then walked towards her. There were no lights here and there were more mosquitoes. Jiang Suichu also took a few steps towards him and walked to the light.
Lu Zhinian: "Give me your hand."
"?"
In confusion, he saw Lu Zhinian holding several band-aids in his hand. Lu Zhinian tore off the bandage. Seeing that she didn't reach out, he bent down and pulled up her injured hand.
Although he had cleaned her wound just now, the light in the car was dark and he could not see the depth of the wound clearly.
The light at the door of the hotel was very bright. Lu Zhinian took her hand and looked at it carefully. Fortunately, the wound was not deep.
He gently put the band-aid on the wound and warned: "Try not to get wet these days."
"Yeah." Jiang Suchu looked at the movements of his fingertips, so gentle and careful.
After bandaging, Jiang Suchu took back his hand and thanked her in a low voice: "Thank you."
Lu Zhinian put the remaining band-aids into her hand and smiled, "You're welcome."
Then he took out his cell phone from his pocket and handed it to her.
Jiang Suichu took the phone. It didn't seem to be her phone. She remembered that the screen of her phone was broken that day, but the screen of this phone was indeed intact and it could be seen that it was new. She looked at the back of the phone again, and a few chipped paint told her that this was indeed her phone.
Lu Zhinian was holding his mobile phone in his hand, sliding something with his fingers.
Seeing the confusion in her eyes, he explained: "The screen of your mobile phone was broken that day. I happened to have a friend who can change the screen himself, so I asked him to help change it."
"I've charged my phone. Please try to see if it can be turned on."
"Oh, thank you." Jiang Suichu pressed the power button, "I'll tell you how much it costs to repair the phone."
Lu Zhinian lowered his eyes and looked at her, "Didn't you say that my friend helped repair it for free?"
Jiang Suichu: "Even if my friends help me, I still have to spend money to buy this screen."
And at first glance, this screen is not cheap. It is a waste of money to install it on her second-hand mobile phone.
Lu Zhinian originally wanted to say that he didn't need to pay it back, but after seeing the determination in her eyes, he thought about it and casually quoted a price.
"Fifty!" Jiang Suichu obviously didn't believe it, "Don't lie to me, this screen tells you it's more than fifty."
Lu Zhinian looked at her with some pity: "How come you weren't as easy to deceive as you were when you were a kid?"
He was actually lying to her.
Jiang Suchu's eyes widened and he said, "Of course, I'm not a three-year-old child anymore."
Lu Zhinian looked at her arrogant look and smiled, "Yes, not three years old, but a fifteen-year-old child."
…………
After more than a minute, the phone finally turned on.
"Give me the payment code and I'll transfer it to you." She said as she opened WeChat. "Don't lie to me. How much is it?"
Lu Zhinian didn't move. He watched her click on WeChat to scan, and then reported a number she could believe, "200."
Jiang Suichu looked up at him, still a little unconvinced, "Really?"
"Yeah." Lu Zhinian nodded. He had already thought of his words, "The original screen of your mobile phone is only one or two hundred."
Indeed, her mobile phone was originally a no-name phone that cost more than a thousand yuan.
Jiang Suichu thought it was reasonable and had no doubts.
Jiang Suichu clicked on the scan button and asked him again: "Payment code."
Lu Zhinian tilted his head and looked at her without moving.
Jiang Suichu thought he didn't want it, and was a little annoyed, "I must pay you back."
Lu Zhinian sneered and said, "Did I tell you I wouldn't let you pay it back?"
" and you….."
He was interrupted before he finished speaking.
Lu Zhinian put one hand in his pocket, opened his phone with the other, pulled out a QR code and handed it under her phone, "I remember someone said he wanted to add me on WeChat and send me a red envelope. "
Jiang Suchu only saw the page on her phone jump. It didn't seem to be a transfer page, but before she could see clearly, her phone was suddenly taken away by a hand.
Lu Zhinian took her phone, tapped a few points with his slender fingers, and then returned the phone to her.
The movements were completed in one go, and Jiang Suichu had no time to react.
The WeChat page stays in the address book.
[L approved your friend application]
His WeChat name is a capital L, and his avatar is his dog, Beibei.
Jiang Suichu switched to the chat interface. There were several unread messages in the past few days, and the top one was from Lu Zhinian.
[I passed your friend verification request, now we can start chatting]
She first transferred 200 yuan of money for a mobile phone screen.
Jiang Suichu: "You can collect the money for the mobile phone screen."
Lu Zhinian didn't hesitate and clicked "accept" readily. He knew that if he didn't accept it, she would definitely think that he was pitying her.
Seeing that he accepted Jiang Suchu, he felt relieved and asked him again: "How much red envelope do you want?"
Lu Zhinian was looking at her WeChat and raised his eyebrows at her: "You will give me as much as I want?"
Jiang Suchu heard the joke in his words and suddenly felt a little unwilling to be outdone. He retorted: "Well, then call the police and accuse you of blackmail!"
After saying that, both of them had a meal.
Realizing that his attitude was too familiar, Jiang Suchu looked away in embarrassment.
Lu Zhinian looked at the crimson tips of her ears and sighed in his heart: It was still the same as when he was a child, his ears turned red when he was anxious and shy.
He resisted pinching her ears and teased her: "You are so cruel, Piggy."
The clear voice rose slightly, with a gentle smile at the end, and his voice was clean.
Piggy.
This is a nickname that only he can call.
Jiang Suchu was stunned for a moment and became even more uncomfortable. Holding the phone in her hand, she didn't look at him: "I...I have to leave first. Thank you for helping me fix my phone."
After speaking, he turned to leave, but was stopped by Lu Zhinian.
"etc."
She stopped and looked at him.
Lu Zhinian: "When will you go back to school tomorrow?"
Tomorrow is the 7th, so she should go back to school.
Jiang Suchu looked at him, "What's the matter?"
Lu Zhinian was very direct and said: "Come with us, we will return to the city tomorrow."
Jiang Suichu thought about it and declined politely, "I have to work half a day tomorrow, so I don't want to waste your time."
Lu Zhinian: "There's nothing to delay. Just let me know when you can leave."
"...It's really no need, I have something else to do. I won't talk to you..." Jiang Suichu said halfway, and he clearly felt that the air pressure around him had dropped.
She saw the corners of Lu Zhinian's mouth gradually tighten and his eyes dimming a little bit.
He seemed angry.
Jiang Suchu unconsciously grasped the hem of his clothes, looked at him carefully, and explained in a low voice: "I really have something else to do."
She has to go back home to take her grandma to the doctor tomorrow, and is not sure when she can go back to school.
Lu Zhinian knew that the relationship between the two was actually no different from strangers. After all, they hadn't seen each other for ten years. The feeling of being more unfamiliar than familiar made the two of them a lot more awkward.
So he no longer pressed, nodded and said, "Okay. Then...see you back to school?"
Jiang Suchu was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips and said, "Well, see you at school."
That night, the evening breeze from the top of the mountain gently blew the clothes of the two of them.
Back in the dormitory, there was a lunch box on the table. She washed her face, picked up her lunch box, walked to the boys' dormitory opposite, and knocked on the door.
Jiang Minghao opened the door. He had just finished taking a shower. He had a towel on his shoulders and wiped the water from his head.
Seeing that it was her, he walked out and closed the dormitory door, blocking the gaze of a group of shirtless men inside.
Jiang Minghao: "Why did you come back so late today?"
Jiang Suchu: "Something delayed me for a while."
Jiang Minghao nodded without asking any more questions, then raised his chin and motioned to sit on the flower bed over there and eat.
There was a flower bed behind the staff dormitory, and the two of them walked over and sat on the flower bed.
Jiang Suichu opened his lunch box and started eating slowly.
"Jiang Minghao." She called him.
"Yeah." Jiang Minghao was looking down at his phone. He raised his head to look at her.
She had rice stuffed in her mouth and her cheeks were bulging, looking a little cute.
"I got my phone back. Calculate how much I owe you in the past few days. I'll transfer it to you."
She doesn't have a mobile phone these days, and Jiang Minghao pays for food and water.
Jiang Minghao thought of the girl he had just met in the cafeteria. He thought they happened to come here to play and met Jiang Suichu.
What a coincidence.
Somehow, the image of Tang Mi holding her head and tilting her head and saying to him, "What a coincidence" suddenly appeared in his mind.
Jiang Minghao curled his lips silently and opened the game to play: "Are you so polite to me?"
She didn't eat much at noon, and now she was really hungry. He was eating heavily and his speech was a little slurred.
"One code equals one code. Forget it if you don't tell me. Anyway, I will record it every day. When the time comes, just don't say that I transferred less."
She was joking too.
Jiang Minghao was operating the game in his hands, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "Watch it and turn it around. If you get too much, it will be used as interest."
After eating, Jiang Suichu immediately transferred the money from the past few days. Jiang Minghao was also very happy and clicked to receive without looking at the number.
After transferring the money, Jiang Suichu saw the newly added friend in the list. Before she could change the note for him, his nickname was still capital L.
Jiang Suichu clicked on his profile picture and looked at the two messages on their clean chat interface.
——L [I passed your friend verification request, now we can start chatting]
——SUiSUi [WeChat transfer 200]
She clicked on his WeChat Moments, and as she thought, he rarely posted on Moments, and the few posts he posted were all about the golden retriever - Beibei.
Seeing Beibei, she suddenly remembered the WeChat post she posted on the day she met Beibei. She was startled, and quickly exited and clicked on his profile picture to set the permissions for the circle of friends.
After setting it up, I felt a little better.
Others in that circle of friends might have thought she was just posting it for fun, but Lu Zhinian definitely knew what it meant.
She was a little embarrassed, afraid that he would think she was pretentious when he saw her.
Lu Zhinian returned to the hotel room, and Pei Shuo had also returned and was lying on his bed.
Seeing Lu Zhinian coming back, he rolled over on the bed and rolled to the end of the bed to look at him.
"A-Nian, are you looking for Suisui?"
As soon as he left the camp early, he guessed that he might be looking for Jiang Suchu.
Lu Zhinian didn't deny it and said 'hmm'.
Upon hearing this, Pei Shuo got up and sat cross-legged on the bed and asked him, "How are you doing? Did Suisui say anything?"
Lu Zhinian sat on the sofa and took out his phone without looking at him, "What did you say?"
Pei Shuo was a little anxious. He jumped out of bed barefoot and stood in front of him: "When you went to Suisui, didn't you ask anything? Didn't you ask her why she was here and not in Xuancheng? Why did she pretend not to know us? ?You didn’t ask these questions?”
Lu Zhinian was looking at Jiang Suchu's WeChat Moments and frowned impatiently while listening to Pei Shuo's numerous explanations.
He clicked on Jiang Suchu's circle of friends, and in almost a second, the circle of friends he had seen on Tang Mi's phone disappeared in a flash, leaving only a dividing line.
.......
He is blocked! !
He laughed angrily and sneered slightly.
Pei Shuo was confused by his laughter: "....Why are you laughing? Did you hear me talking to you?"
Lu Zhinian threw the phone to the side of the sofa and snorted, "If she has anything to ask, she will naturally say it when she wants to."
"But..." Pei Shuo wanted to say something else, but after thinking about it, it seemed that he could only do this.
Lu Zhinian was still a little irritable. He glanced at the mobile phone that was thrown into the corner of the sofa, pursed his thin lips tightly, and lowered his tongue to his teeth.
"Hey, where are you going?"
Pei Shuo saw him pick up his phone and walk out, so he got up and followed him.
Lu Zhinian walked to the door of Tang Mi's room and knocked several times.
Tang Mi was applying a facial mask when she opened the door and saw two people standing at the door, pouting strangely, holding a mobile phone in one hand and stroking the mask on their faces with the other.
"Do you have a problem with me?" Tang Mi thought he was asking her about Jiang Suichu, so she turned around and walked to the room, "Come in and talk."
Lu Zhinian did not go in, but stood at the door, " Lend me your cell phone."
Tang Mi turned back to look at him, and handed over the phone with some confusion: "What are you doing?"
Lu Zhinian didn't reply to her. He took his phone and quickly found Jiang Suichu's WeChat account and clicked into her circle of friends.
He wanted to see if she had closed the circle of friends or just blocked him.
Pei Shuo and Tang Mi were both curious. When they came closer, they saw Lu Zhinian looking at Jiang Suichu's WeChat Moments.
After Lu Zhinian saw it, the dimple on the right side of his face was sunken. He returned the phone to Tang Mi, said thank you and turned around to leave.
Then there was a loud bang, and the hotel door was slammed shut.
Tang Mi and Pei Shuo were so frightened that they were startled at the same time and looked at each other.
Obviously, both of them could tell that Lu Zhinian was in a bad mood.
Tang Mi and Pei Shuo looked at each other and asked him silently what was going on.
Pei Shuo shook his head and said he didn't know either.
The door opposite was opened, and Tang Zi, wearing a hotel nightgown, looked at the two people standing at the door.
Tang Zi: "Pei Shuo, what are you doing here?"
Pei Shuo hugged Tang Zi and said, "Young Master Tang, I will sleep with you tonight."
Tang Zi pushed him away in disgust, "Didn't you say you wanted to share a room with Lu Zhinian tonight?"
Originally, they had been sleeping in the same room for the past few days, but Lu Zhinian came over today. Pei Shuo wanted to discuss Jiang Suchu's affairs with him, so he proposed to sleep with Lu Zhinian tonight.
Pei Shuo hugged him and refused to let go, "No, I can't. If Mr. Lu is in a bad mood, I will die if I share a room with him."
It will be delayed little by little by the low pressure.
Tang Zi twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at Tang Mi.
Tang Mi was amused by Pei Shuo and said, "I don't know who messed with Lu Zhinian. His face is so dark. He doesn't dare to go back to sleep, so just keep him for one night."
After saying "good night", he closed the door and went back to his room to sleep.
After returning to the room, Lu Zhinian lay on the bed and looked at Jiang Suchu's WeChat. His fingers rose and fell several times without typing a single word.
What can he do.
He couldn't directly ask her why she blocked him, that would be too shameful for him.
He didn't know how long he stared at the chat interface between the two of them, but he didn't come back to his senses until his hands went numb.
There was no light in the room, and a helpless sigh came from him in the darkness.
never mind.
Let her be.
Click on her avatar, click on the remarks column, and tap a few times with your finger.
Looking at the changed nickname, he returned to the chat interface with satisfaction.
Click on the dialog box and send "Good night" to it.
After waiting for a while, he didn't come back as expected.
He had no extravagant expectation that she would respond to him, but now it was already past one o'clock. She worked so long during the day, she must have fallen asleep by now.
The staff dormitory was already silent, with only the rising and falling sounds of sleeping breathing in the darkness. Jiang Suichu was lying on his side, his body slightly bent, sleeping against the wall like a little shrimp.
The screen of the muted mobile phone under the pillow lit up after receiving a message, and then turned off again.
—— L [Good night]
