Chapter 69: Bai Xiuli (3)

The next day was Sunday, Xu Xincheng woke up at six o'clock, and when he woke up, he was still the same, getting up lightly, freshening up, changing into dried sportswear and sneakers, drinking water, bringing his mobile phone, and quietly going out.

In order to facilitate running and exercising, he does not bring books when reading in the morning, only carries his mobile phone, puts his mobile phone in an exercise armbag, the armbag is tied to his right arm, puts on headphones, listens to English audio while running, and after morning exercise, looks at the English speaking e-book or video in the mobile phone to practice speaking.

The mobile phone is his most important learning prop, yesterday morning, the moment he fell into the stream, in order to protect the mobile phone, his body subconsciously turned 90 degrees, and entered the water with the left side of the body, plus the arm bag has a good waterproof function, although the whole body is soaked, but the mobile phone does not enter the water.

It doesn't matter if you're soaking wet, or even a little injured. If he gets hurt, the wound heals quickly, but if the phone gets into the water and breaks, that's the worst thing for him, because he doesn't have the money to buy a new one.

Xu Xincheng still ran to the east side of the school.

Today's weather is fine, there is no fog, and the mountain peaks in the east block the sun that has just risen over the horizon, but the early morning light still illuminates the eastern part of the city, which is surrounded by mountains on three sides.

More than a hundred meters away, he saw a white figure on the path by the stream, where she was pacing back and forth.

When he reached a distance of about sixty meters, he could clearly see the figure as the girl he had met yesterday morning. She was at the sharp turn, and he thought to himself, "Why did you come here for morning reading so early in the morning?"

It's Sunday, it's just past 6:15, and as far as the eye can see, it's just the two of them in the entire East End.

When he reached a distance of about seven meters, Xu Xincheng slowed down, nodded slightly to her, and greeted her with a smile: "Good morning!"

The girl saw him when the two of them were about fifty meters apart, then stopped pacing, stood on the side of the road, and when Xu Xincheng greeted her, she also smiled and greeted him: "Morning!"

Although Xu Xincheng slowed down the pace of his feet, he had no intention of stopping, he wanted to run to the small playground in front of him, which was where he usually practiced and read in the morning.

He changed the trot to a brisk walk, and walked briskly past her as he nodded slightly to her again, and as he passed her, he smiled again and said hello to her: "Hello!"

Passing her in front of and behind, he changed his brisk walk to a trot, ran in the direction of the front, and soon ran to the small playground.

This is a small playground with a track of only 200 meters, and every morning, he will run 20 to 25 laps here, and when he is in good shape, 35 to 40 laps, and during the break, he will go to the playground to do push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups and other strength strengthening exercises to improve arm strength and waist strength.

When he ran to the fifth lap, Xu Xincheng noticed a white figure on the edge of the playground, it turned out that the girl had also come to the playground, she was holding a book in her hand, but she didn't mean to read the book at all, but kept watching him run.

He was a little awkward and felt that he should go over and say hello to her again, so he jogged up to her and said hello with a smile: "Hello!"

The girl said sweetly, "Hello!"

She paused, pretending to be mysterious, "I was just working on something. ”

"Huh?!" he didn't understand what she meant, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you studying?"

"I was just looking at whether you can run fast or a rabbit can run fast. ”

"Huh?!" he was even more confused.

"I didn't have time to thank you yesterday when you ran away, faster than a rabbit. ”

He couldn't help but laugh.

---------

Later, Bai Xiuli told him that that morning, after being rescued, the reason why she choked up was because she saw that Xu Xincheng completely ignored the fact that she had just fallen into the creek, completely ignored that she was still wet, and she had been concerned about whether she was scratched and frightened, which made her very moved, she choked up because she was moved, and she cried because of gratitude.

Then, before she could say thank you, he ran away, which moved her even more.

When she came back to her senses, she found that he had run away, and she tried to shout twice, but the voice was too small to reach far, and she tried to chase him for a while, but she couldn't, and he soon disappeared into the fog.

So, she had to wait patiently until the next morning.

In order not to miss him, she went to the brook at six o'clock, and kept pacing there anxiously, fearing that he would not come again to-day.

The moment she finally saw him, she almost jumped for joy.

Who knows, Xu Xincheng just smiled and said good morning to her, and then ran forward by himself, as if the events of the previous day had not happened at all. This moved her, but also a little angry and unhappy, touched that he didn't mean to ask for thanks at all, and angry and unhappy that she felt that he treated her as if she was a passerby.

That morning, she got up at 5:15, put on the most beautiful clothes, and spent ten minutes carefully combing her favorite hairstyle and putting on a light makeup, but he didn't even look at her twice, which made her a little angry and unhappy.

The reason why she went to such a remote place to read in the morning was because when she was reading in the morning in the big playground before, there were always boys who couldn't help but want to look at her a few more times, and some people deliberately kept pacing back and forth in front of her in order to look at her a few more times, pretending to read a book, but in fact they were looking at her.

Usually, when she walks around the campus, at least seven out of ten boys passing in front of her will stare at her, and at least five out of ten will look back at her back after walking past.

Xu Xincheng is one of the very few boys she has met who doesn't look at her twice, especially in that situation, in a face-to-face situation, in a situation where she takes the initiative to show her affection, she really meets a boy who doesn't look at her twice, which makes her really angry, but at the same time she is secretly happy in her heart.

Xu Xincheng laughed dumbly when he heard this, and then explained that his personal orientation was completely normal, but when he met a beautiful girl on the road, he would never stare at others, because it was very impolite behavior.

As for the reason why he didn't look at her twice that morning, firstly, because of politeness, and secondly, because the more beautiful the girl, the less he dared to think about it, and the more a school girl like her, he didn't dare to think about it.

In the first two months after Xu Xincheng met Bai Xiuli, he still deliberately maintained a friend relationship with her.

Since he was a child, he never dared to think about it, and he never dared to imagine that one day, a beautiful girl like Bai Xiuli would become his girlfriend, so when the two dating, he was always a relatively passive party.

He has always been very self-aware, he knows very well that he can't climb such a beautiful and excellent girl, not because he is not confident in his appearance, knowledge and talents, but because he has a relatively clear understanding of his own situation and the cruelty of the real world.

---------

After laughing for a while, Xu Xincheng said indifferently: "Yesterday's incident is really nothing, I really don't need to thank you!"

"Your surname is Ray, right?" the girl asked seriously.

"Huh?" he frowned, stunned for a moment, and didn't understand her words, he could only shake his head, indicating that he was not surnamed Lei.

"You don't have the surname Lei! I thought you were the 'Lei Feng' who did good deeds without leaving a name. ”

"Oh!" he understood the meaning of what she had just said, and couldn't help laughing again, and after laughing for a while, he said with a smile: "My surname is Xu, and the full name of Xu Xincheng is Xu Xincheng." Hello!"

"My surname is Bai, Bai Xiuli, and my English name is Lily. Hello!" she said, reaching out to shake his hand.

Seeing this, Xu Xincheng hurriedly stretched out his hand, and at the moment he held her hand, he felt the softness and warmth of her beautiful hand, and also smelled the fragrance of lilies wafting from her.

Lily is a very beautiful name that means lily. As the name suggests, the white beauty is excellent and beautiful, pure as a white lily.

"I'm a sophomore in English and American literature. What about you?"

"I'm a sophomore in Business English. After releasing his hand, he put his right hand around his left wrist and placed his hands lightly in front of his lower abdomen.

She smiled, her big eyes blinked twice, "You ......", she lowered her head, as if thinking about something.

Suddenly, she stopped laughing, and a look of unease appeared on her delicate pink face, and she asked with some panic, "You...... The injury on your little arm was caused by a fall yesterday morning, right?"

He hurriedly raised the palm of his right hand to block the injured place, and at the same time hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's just a small injury, and it will be fine in two days." ”

Tears glistened with tears in her bright eyes......

---------

From that day on, the two would meet from time to time to go to the East End to read together in the morning.

After the two became lovers, they liked to go there most in the foggy morning, walk in the fog, read a book together in the fog, read poetry together in the fog, and ...... in the fog

Those days of walking in the fog became his fondest memories.

///--

Later, Xu Xincheng realized that the reason why he liked to walk in the fog with Bai Xiuli so much was because, in the fog, everything was hazy, and in the fog, reality seemed to be far, far, far away......
