After eating, the two returned to the dormitory to freshen up.
Lin Zhi remembered that she hadn't seen Xiao Yan for many days and took out her cosmetics...
"Zhizhi, you look so beautiful with makeup."
During the meal, Ning Xiyan had already changed her title. Lin Zhi smiled a little shyly. She didn't put on smoky makeup today. She just traced her eyebrows and put on some lipstick. She looked much more gorgeous.
"Would you like to change your makeup too?"
Ning Xiyan shook her head. She didn't want to look too pretty. After all, it was a class reunion.
Lin Zhi didn't force herself, Ning Xiyan was very capable without makeup.
"Let's go buy some snacks first."
This party is actually just talking together and then having a meal in the school cafeteria.
This is also the result of discussions between Lin Zhi and Zhang Jue.
There are several classmates in the class whose family background is not very good, and living expenses must be somewhat tight. If they live outside, their expenses will be high.
Lin Zhi was also prepared to pay for the snacks for the party as a landlord, and the living expenses Lin Bao gave her could not be used up at all.
I bought a large cart at the school supermarket. Just after I finished paying, I saw Ning Xiyan pushing out half a cart of snacks.
Lin Zhi was puzzled: "Why did you buy so many?"
Ning Xiyan's eyes turned into crescent moons as she smiled: "I can't go empty-handed."
…
Xiao Yan left the school gate and took a short path to the nearby subway station. He didn't go far when he saw a thin girl in ordinary clothes holding two steamed buns and eating them while walking on the road.
The girl should be very tall, but her chest is hunched over, making her look much smaller. Her face has an obvious sallow complexion, and her hair is malnourished and yellow.
Xiao Yan stopped and remembered this girl, Guan Zheng.
I didn't have much contact with her in my previous life. I only knew that she was in Class 1 of the Accounting Department. I met her a few times during the big class. I had the impression that she was always a little transparent and didn't even have a single friend.
She was recognized because she took her own life during her junior year.
Most of the classmates only knew her because of this incident, and then, her situation was constantly discovered...
Guan Zheng's parents died in a traffic accident when she was in junior high school. However, because they were the ones who violated the rules, they did not receive any compensation.
Relying on a small amount of savings and support from my grandmother in the countryside, I barely managed to go to college.
Later, her grandma also left, and her source of income was completely cut off, so she had to work and study by herself. The reason that led to her suicide was that she was looking for a part-time job online, but was defrauded of all her money.
Some people try their best just to live.
After the accident, Xiao Yan, like all his classmates, fell into self-blame. He never imagined that there was such a girl beside him.
If it's just a little care and help, she can survive it.
Xiao Yan knew that for Guan Zheng, who was currently eating steamed buns, the greatest kindness was to ignore him, but he couldn't do it.
She is going to Xijing tomorrow and will not be back for half a month. If she ignores her today, she will continue to eat steamed buns for half a month.
I still need military training...
In her last life, she was able to survive until her junior year, but she can't say that in this life. After all, the fate of many people has changed. Who knows if something will happen to her too?
Guan Zheng gnawed on the steamed bun and looked around carefully.
The food in school is still too expensive for her. The cheapest bowl of noodles costs six yuan, and her monthly living expenses are only three hundred.
Although steamed buns were also sold, she was really embarrassed to buy them in front of her classmates.
But she must control her daily food expenses to less than six yuan, so that she can have some money left to buy other things.
It was almost autumn and she had no clothes to wear in college. In contrast, she prefers summer. Clothes and shoes are cheap, which can make her look less shabby.
Fortunately, the school does not prohibit students from entering and exiting. It only took her half an hour yesterday to find a bun shop outside.
The steamed buns cost one dollar each, they were small, but enough to last her until the afternoon.
Well, I’ll buy something for two yuan in the afternoon and eat a little full.
"Hey, classmate."
There was a voice coming from behind, but Guan Zheng ignored it. It probably wasn't her.
Then, he saw a boy walking quickly to the front and stopped him.
"Hello, classmate."
So handsome...is he a classmate?
Guan Zheng blushed and subconsciously hid the steamed bun behind her back. She blushed and said, "You, you called me?"
"Yes." Xiao Yan nodded with a smile and asked, "Excuse me, where did you buy your steamed buns?"
"Ah!" Guan Zheng was stunned.
Xiao Yan said seriously: "I want to eat steamed buns, but I searched all the way and couldn't find them."
Guan Zheng blinked, what's so delicious about steamed buns? Still looking for it? Are they sold in school?
Does he also have no money? But it doesn't look like it.
She pointed behind her: "It's in the alley over there. You'll see it as soon as you enter."
Xiao Yan scratched his head and said, "I'm sorry, I'm a crazy person. Could you please take me there? Oh, by the way, my name is Xiao Yan. I'm from the second class of the accounting department. Are you from the first class? I saw you in the morning. "
Guan Zheng felt a little relieved, but also a little strange, how did he see me?
I have kept my head down all morning.
"Please, please." Xiao Yan said with a smile, "I've been craving for steamed buns for a long time."
Guan Zheng had no choice but to take him to the entrance of the alley, pointed to the signboard of the bakery inside and said, "It's right there."
"Oh, thank you." Xiao Yan said to Guan Zheng, who was about to turn around, "Can you wait for me? I'm a road addict and I don't remember the way back to school at all."
Guan Zheng looked at him in disbelief. He could go back just by turning two corners. He didn't even remember this?
Xiao Yan came back soon, holding four large meat buns and two cartons of milk.
He sighed at her: "The steamed buns are sold out. Well, can I exchange the steamed buns for your steamed buns?"
Guan Zheng was a little embarrassed. A steamed bun only cost 50 cents and a steamed bun cost 2 yuan. How could he change it?
She gritted her teeth and handed over the uneaten bun in her hand, "No need to change, I'll give this to you."
"How about that!" Xiao Yan stuffed the bag containing two meat buns into her hand.
Guan Zheng shook his head quickly: "I don't want it, I'm full."
The smell of minced meat came to my nose, but my stomach made an unsatisfactory growling sound.
Her face turned red.
"The stuffing of the buns is filled with oil. If you eat it while walking, it will drip on your clothes. Let's go back after eating." Xiao Yan couldn't help but pinch Guan Zheng's sleeves and pulled her to sit on a bench on the street.
He handed over another carton of milk, "This is to thank you for showing me the way."
Taking a bite of the steamed bun Guan Zheng gave him, he said with enjoyment, "I grew up in the north and was used to eating steamed buns. After I came here, I ate rice every day and I couldn't stand it anymore."
Seeing that Guan Zheng was not moving, he urged: "Eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Guan Zheng couldn't hold it back in the end, picked up the bun and took a bite.
It smells so good.
Xiao Yan ate slowly and waited until Guan Zheng finished eating and drank the milk before dragging her back to school.
On the way, Guan Zheng couldn't help but burped and her face turned red again.
I took a sneak peek at Xiao Yan and saw that he was staring at a beautiful woman across the street, seemingly not hearing her at all, and I was relieved.
Xiao Yan pretended to be a road idiot on the road and walked in the opposite direction on purpose, wishing that he couldn't pull it back. Guan Zheng was so anxious that he was sweating. This was the first time in her life that she had seen someone be like this.
"Are you really a roadie?"
"Hey." Xiao Yan said with a sad face, "If I hadn't been really hungry for steamed buns, I wouldn't have dared to leave school."
Guan Zheng chuckled.
Looking at her face, Xiao Yan blinked. This girl seemed to have a bit of fun when she smiled.
