Chapter 146: Zhang Zhou's Confession
The vegetable millet porridge in the pot wafts out an enticing aroma. www.biquge.info Zhang Zhou swallowed his saliva, stirred it with the spoon in his hand, and then buried his head, looking at the color of the boiled crystal clear rice grains and the vegetable grains that looked very appetizing, and the vegetable grains that were about the size of rice grains, but his brows were slightly furrowed.
"It seems to be a little lighter......" He carefully scooped a little and put it on the plate on the side, tasted it lightly, then glanced at Li Ai who was lying on the sofa, and said in a low voice, then took the jar of salt on the side, shook some white and crystal salt grains into the porridge, stirred it a few more times, scooped a little more and tasted it, and then nodded with satisfaction.
The eyes that were retracted from the living room were resting on the phone next to the board, which reminded him of the old class who had been thrown aside by him and ignored him. It's been more than an hour, and it should have stopped now, right? He silently thought about it in his heart, but when he thought of this, the thoughts in his mind couldn't help but deviate, falling on someone who was in the same school and a demon who was in the same school not long ago.
I don't know, how is that guy in Moyin Bao'er now? Also, what kind of face is the guy who once confessed to Li Ai and hurt Moyin Bao'er yesterday sitting in the classroom now?
He knew that 'that guy's name was Wang Yue, but he didn't want to call him by his name. As soon as he thought that guy had looked at Li Ai with covetous eyes, he felt that his palms were itchy, and he couldn't wait to pull out the scorching night and stab him fiercely. Coupled with what he did to Moyin Bao'er yesterday, he didn't have the slightest good impression of him. I don't know why Moyin Bao'er is so fond of him......
But...... There was an inexplicable emotion in the depths of his eyes, but he lowered his head and muttered something in a low voice. The sound was so small that even the sound of bubbling in the porridge pot could drown it out...... But, even when it was masked, he was able to hear his own voice, "Fortunately, fortunately, I ...... with her"
And the guy he was talking to was sitting in his own seat in the classroom, and in the interval between lectures, he looked at the empty seat in the last row...... He didn't notice that there was another person on the other side watching his every move, his eyes full of vague concern.
"Xiao Yue, you guy...... After doing that kind of thing, you should be miserable now, right? Don't ...... Don't ......," Tang An muttered in a low voice, and the palms resting on the table clenched unconsciously.
He didn't know that while he was paying attention to Wang Yue, there was another person who was paying attention to him in other places and in another way. Suning hugged the pillow and leaned on the head of the bed in the hotel, a pair of eyes reflecting the fluorescent mobile phone interface.
Wang Yue ...... Yang Baoer...... Li Ai...... ZHANG Zhou...... Demons, past and present lives, ...... continuation of fate" She muttered in a low voice, and the corner of her eyes unconsciously glanced at the photo frame brought with the bag, on which, a pair of teenage boys and girls leaned together, smiling innocently. Between her eyebrows and eyes, you can vaguely see her Tang An's shadow.
"That kid named Wang Yue, is it really worth it for you? Alas, you guy...... For that guy's sake, I will definitely take the initiative to fall into such a whirlpool of right and wrong......" She muttered in a low voice, with a hint of reluctance. "I really don't want to help you. Obviously, I have been in conflict with me for several years, and I have never taken the initiative to come to me, but for this guy......
"But...... Never mind. There's no way this guy is going to be my rival anyway...... And I don't want you to be hurt in any way......" she whispered, but there was a hint of regret and anxiety in her eyes, "but unfortunately, tomorrow I will leave this city and go back there...... What can I do in the remaining time......"
There was a little sadness in her eyes, and the arm holding the pillow tightened a little inexplicably, and then she whispered, "I don't know when I will come next time, but don't forget me...... You ...... thing."
"You ......" woke up, Li Ai, who had regained a lot of strength, just opened her eyes, and saw Zhang Zhou sitting at the head of the bed, and suddenly sat up straight in surprise, glanced left and right, and found that it was not yet time for school in the afternoon, so she turned her eyes back with some doubts, stared at Zhang Zhou's smiling face, and whispered, "Shouldn't you go to school?" ”
"I'm taking a leave of absence." Zhang Zhou chuckled, but raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment, and hesitated, "Or should I say, I skipped class." Hawkers, let's see how the old class defines me. He said lightly, and then reached out and took the steaming small bowl from the coffee table on the side, which was still leaning on the spoon, "Don't talk about this, come, eat some porridge first, and cushion your stomach." ”
Li Ai didn't reach out to pick it up, but just looked at him with a very complicated gaze, Zhang Zhou, who raised his eyes to see this scene, was slightly stunned, and then laughed softly, "What? Do you want me to feed you? ”
Li Ai shook his head, withdrew his gaze on him, silently took the small bowl in his hand, buried his head and took a small sip, but he didn't notice the faint disappointment that flashed in Zhang Zhou's eyes after she took the small bowl.
The crystal clear rice porridge was warm in his mouth, with a faint salty taste, although it was not delicious, but it made Li Ai feel refreshed and felt that his body had recovered a little.
"Do you want more?" Seeing that the small bowl of rice porridge was wiped out by Li Ai in small bites, Zhang Zhou retracted his gaze on her and asked in a low voice. Li Ai didn't look up, just silently handed over the small bowl in his hand, and also responded in a low voice, "Yes, another bowl." ”
Zhang Zhou then laughed, reached out to take the small bowl, turned around and walked to the kitchen for a long time. And after he turned around, Li Ai, who was sitting on the sofa with his head down, raised his eyes and looked at his back in confusion, a pair of eyes full of hesitation, and in the depths of that hesitation, there was a trace of uneasiness and trepidation, and beyond that panic, there was an indescribable expectation......
The corners of Zhang Zhou's mouth, which was facing away from her, hooked a little joyful arc, he could feel her gaze on him behind him, and recalled the faint expectation in her somewhat complicated gaze when she raised her eyes to look at him, and he couldn't help but smile slightly.
Perhaps, perhaps, the time has come. Perhaps, perhaps, he has already said what he wants to say. Now, it shouldn't be considered a rush, right? He thought about it like this, picked up the spoon placed next to the porridge pot, and while scooping the porridge from the pot, he laughed self-deprecatingly and whispered, "Heh, even if the time doesn't come, can I still hold back and not confess my heart to her?" ”
He put away the self-deprecating smile on his face, put down the spoon, closed the pot, then took a deep breath, suppressed the little apprehension that unconsciously rose in his eyes, picked up the small bowl, and turned to walk towards the living room. Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Li Ai, who was originally looking at his back, was now looking at the sky that was gradually whitened by the sun through the floor-to-ceiling window with the curtains opened.
In normal times, he might have observed and tried to figure out the thoughts in her heart, but now, he easily understood all these emotions to his advantage. He hurried to Li Ai's side and put the small bowl in her hand.
"Zhang Zhou, you ...... It seems to have changed...... Li Ai withdrew her gaze to the sun-lit sky, glanced at the small bowl lying in her palm, and then turned her gaze back to the window, but Zhang Zhou didn't notice it, her gaze shifted from the white sky to the shadow cast by the sunlight on the high-rise buildings outside the window. In the depths of those pupils, there was a lot of pain and struggle.
"Huh? Am I changing? Well, it should have changed......" Zhang Zhou was a little surprised why she would say such a thing at this time, but she still followed her words, "Since Moyin Bao'er helped me break free from some kind of shackles in my mind yesterday, I have changed. ”
"What I forgot inexplicably, I remembered; What I was inexplicably vague was clear; Speaking of this, he paused, and the anxiety that had been suppressed germinated again, making him unconsciously glance at Li Ai who was looking out the window.
Her hair covered her eyes, making it impossible for him to see the look on her face. The sadness and struggle in her eyes as she gazed at the shadows intensified, and deeper, there was a heartbreaking color of supplication. She was praying, begging him to give her a little more time, begging him not to say that at this time, because she hadn't thought it through and hadn't made a choice.
However, he did not hear her pleading in his heart, and he could not see the expression on her face clearly, and he once again understood her in the direction of his favor, only thinking that the reason why she turned her eyes to look out the window was just to hide the shyness on her face, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said the rest of the words, "And those things I once missed because of dullness, I also remember." ”
After saying this, he exhaled deeply, and then took another deep breath. And when he did such a move, he didn't see it, but Li Ai's palm on the quilt was tightly clenched, and on the pretty face that avoided his sight and looked out of the window, there was a touch of despair slowly fading away.
The look of despair hung on her face, making her look so sad. The sadness and despair grew stronger, and finally by the time he said that, it completely filled her face.
"Li Ai," he called her name softly.
"Socialize with me." He said this to her, and his eyes were full of expectation.
"Socialize me and be my girlfriend." He said.
