"Chenchen, are you okay?" Ding Shengyan stood at the bathroom door and paced around, muttering over and over again: "How long do you have to go?"

"It's going to be right away. Shen Chenchen helplessly wiped away the dense droplets of water on his body, and frowned slightly. The water that hung on his chest slid a faint streak along his solid pectoral muscles.

Don't look at the kind of thin clothes he usually wears slim clothes, but he is actually the kind that looks thin in clothes and has meat in his undressing. Of course, meat refers not to fat, but to muscle.

can have such a figure, thanks to his classmates in the sixth grade of primary school.

At that time, because he was tortured by his father since he was a child, even his growth and development were slower than his peers. His height and figure are much worse than those of his classmates. In addition, Shen Chenchen has not liked to talk much since he was a child. Some of the big guys in the class like to taunt him. Over time, Shen Chenchen secretly made up his mind that he must be taller and stronger than them. So he insisted on running to and from school every day, and learned from the people on TV to exercise. This habit continued until the third year of junior high school.

As a result, before the third year of junior high school, people have a height of 1.8 meters, a slender figure and a beautiful face, which is simply fascinating to thousands of girls.

It's just that he has never been cold to the opposite sex, and he is extremely self-disciplined, and he always does things in an orderly manner alone.

There have been many girls who think they are good-looking deliberately approached, but they have all been rejected by him mercilessly, so Wenbo

At that time, there was a popular saying: "The school grass of Wenbo can only be viewed from a distance, not played closely." ”

The bathroom door clicked open. Shen Chenchen walked out lazily in a long-sleeved pajamas. The bangs on the forehead were drenched and hung on the forehead one by one.

"What's wrong?"

When Ding Shengyan saw him come out, she hurriedly leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Tell me, are you friends with Xu Xinyi's girl?"

Shen Chenchen's hand holding bangs froze, paused, and asked her suspiciously, "Why do you ask that?"

"Of course I feel it, your mother and I are from your age, don't try to hide it from me, just tell me, right?"

Shen Chenchen suddenly grinned, shook his head slightly, and walked to the guest room.

"Well, you haven't told me yet. Ding Shengyan followed his pace, but was turned away by him.

Shen Chenchen's soft voice came from inside the room: "Mom, you should rest early, I'm going to sleep." ”

"Hey, stinky boy. Ding Shengyan glanced at the two doors that stood in front of her and closed tightly. I know I can't ask today. So he said to himself: "If you don't tell me, I can find out myself!"

Early the next morning, Ding Shengyan got up like a thief, ready to observe the two people's every move.

It's just that Shen Chenchen got up earlier, ate breakfast outside and took a ride to the hospital.

Xu Xinyi walked to the bathroom in a daze in her pajamas, suddenly remembered that it was the weekend, and went back to the bedroom in a leisurely manner.

Ding Shengyan watched her float in front of her, so she simply didn't even make breakfast, just nestled on the sofa in the living room and waited for Xu Xinyi to go out, and then followed her. If these two really became friends, they would definitely not miss such a good date, as long as they met, she would be able to catch a show.

Xu Xinyi had just been squinting on the bed for a while, and was woken up by the ringtone of her mobile phone.

Her voice lazily "fed".

Gao Li said happily as if he had been beaten with chicken blood: "Senior sister, when are you coming to the library, I have been waiting for you for a long time." Hurry up!"

Xu Xinyi came back to her senses, she had promised to help Gao Li review her homework, but it was only seven o'clock now.

"Isn't it nine o'clock?" Xu Xinyi replied with a yawn. Last night's dance made her whole body hurt back

At the moment, I just want to lie quietly in bed, even for half an hour.

"Senior sister, come quickly, I'll wait for you in the library, if you don't come, I'll find your house." Colliers didn't listen to her at all, as if he was afraid that she would not come, and after saying this, he hurriedly cut off the phone.

"This person" Xu Xinyi was speechless, put down the phone and got up from the bed again.

After washing up, Ding Shengyan quietly followed her out the door.

In the morning, there are always many people standing on the only large green lawn for a walk or gathering to chat. Although it is winter, the sun is warm today, and it shines warmly on people. There is no chill at all.

Xu Xinyi's favorite thing to eat is xiaolongbao at the breakfast shop on the street, two for one dollar, Xu Xinyi bought four and a cup of soy milk. While eating, we walked towards the library.

The milk tea at the green door of the road ahead opened early, and there were a few guests sitting inside, most of the guests who went to Qika did not go to drink milk tea, but sat there waiting for their companions or taking a nap. Zhao Bin too.

What a rare weekend, thinking about how often Xu Xinyi used to wait here, the two made an appointment to go to other places together. Sometimes you can not go anywhere and get tired of spending an afternoon in a bubble tea shop.

Zhao Bin sat next to the floor-to-ceiling window, playing and holding his mobile phone while looking outside the store from time to time. I didn't drink a single sip of Coke on the table. After waiting for more than half an hour, I finally saw Xu Xinyi walking in front of him and going to the breakfast shop on the corner. He stuffed his phone into his coat pocket and ran to Xu Xinyi excitedly.

"Eh, Xinyi!"

Xu Xinyi took a bite of xiaolongbao and looked at him with wide eyes. Zhao Bin didn't wear the baseball cap of yesterday's show today, although his hair was cut short and he lost his bangs. But it seems to be more energetic.

Xu Xinyi sighed: "What are you going to do?"

"Of course I'm waiting for you!" Zhao Bin stood behind her. "Where are you going?"

"What's the matter with you, I'm going to the library. ”

"I'll accompany you, I don't have anything to do today anyway. ”

"No need. Xu Xinyi shook her head, somehow, she felt that Zhao Bin's whole person seemed to have changed in the past few months when he went to the United States, not only his hairstyle but also his personality.

Ding Shengyan watched the two of them walk into the library side by side from a distance, and then returned to Xingfu Jiayuan with confidence: "It seems that Xu Xinyi's boyfriend is back." Then there's nothing to do with my family Chenchen. ”

Xu Xinyi drank all the soy milk in the cup, and when she was about to go to the trash can on the side of the road to throw away the garbage, Zhao Bin immediately grabbed it: "I'll come, you go in first." ”

"Me"

Xu Xinyi watched him run to the trash can opposite with long legs, and swallowed the words back to his mouth.

Probably because it was so early, there was almost no one in the library. So Xu Xinyi saw Gao Li at a glance. He was holding the book in his hand and seemed to have a hard time reading. His brow furrowed.

"What's the matter, what's the problem?" Xu Xinyi found a copy of Yilin from the bookshelf outside and put it opposite Gao Li, and sat down with a smile.

"Senior sister, are you here?" Gao Li hurriedly stood up and greeted her: "Thank you, senior sister, for delaying your rest." ”

"What's the matter, aren't you still helping me with the cleaning? ”

"Senior sister?" Gao Li picked up the textbook and sat next to Xu Xinyi: "I'll sit here, so that you can teach me." ”

Xu Xinyi moved the chair to the side and nodded with a smile. "Which question won't?"

"Oh, this"

"Well, your teacher must have taught you, do you remember what he said at the time? ”

"I forgot"

"Okay, then I'll tell you more about it. ”

After throwing away the garbage, Zhao Bin bought two bottles of water at the convenience store in front of him and entered the library. I thought it was just Xu Xinyi who came alone, thinking that I could read a book with her and see noon, just to find a reason to have a meal together, but I didn't expect that there was another boy sitting next to her, and it seemed that the two had known each other for a long time.

It's just that they haven't mentioned the bamboo pole to him, and there is such a person.

Zhao Bin had no choice but to take a random magazine from the bookshelf and sit directly opposite Xu Xinyi.

"Give you water"

Xu Xinyi raised her head slightly and glanced at him, politely and detachedly said thank you, and then lowered her head to analyze the topic for Gao Li.

Zhao Bin felt very embarrassed, as if he was a superfluous person, and it was not easy to interrupt her when he looked at her serious appearance. However, Gao Li saw it, and when Xu Xinyi finished talking about the topic, he took the initiative to say hello to Zhao Bin.

"You're from Yinghua High School, right? I know you. ”

"Yo, am I so famous?" Zhao Bin took a sip of his drink, raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile.

"Of course, your final finale yesterday was amazing. Colliers said in admiration.

"Huh. Is it. Zhao Bin smiled faintly, but his eyes stopped on Xu Xinyi's face. The dance he danced was for the person he liked, if it was changed to before, this sentence of praise should have been said by Xu Xinyi.

It's just that at this moment, she just lowered her head and looked at the book in her hand, completely ignoring him.

As a boy, Gao Li saw the relationship between the two at a glance. The smile on his face faded. He rolled his eyes thoughtfully, and turned his head to look at Xu Xinyi: "That, senior sister, can I change my name in the future, I always call senior sister and senior sister, as if I am much younger than you." ”

"And what do you want to call me?"

Gao Li scratched the back of his head and said happily: "I call you Xinyi, it looks kind." ”

Xu Xinyi was stunned and looked at Zhao Bin.

Zhao Bin also told her this sentence before, Zhao Bin said: "I call you Xinyi."

"No!" Zhao Bin looked back at Gao Li and replied categorically.

"You still call me Xu Xinyi. It sounds weird to call it that. Xu Xinyi closed the magazine and looked at him and said.

The three of them stayed in the library for a few hours, and Xu Xinyi also figured out Gao Li's academic performance, this kid didn't even know the most basic after-school exercises, let alone the ones that needed to be inferred. If he doesn't listen well in class, no matter how much she helps him review after class, it won't help.

"That kid drunkard doesn't mean to drink!" Zhao Bin said lightly to Xu Xinyi when he walked out of the library.

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Bin sighed slowly, put his hands in his coat pockets, and fiddled with his mobile phone boredly with one hand: "I'll tell you when I eat with me at noon." ”

Xu Xinyi glanced at him: "Come on, you don't want to say it, I don't want to know yet." I'm home. ”

"Hey"

Zhao Bin looked at her resolute back, and had no choice but to deafly pull his head and kick the small pebble at his feet into the drain.
