Chapter 140: The Concierge Receives Water
(The second watch is placed at 10 o'clock in the evening)
After the bell rang for self-study next night, Cheng Jiali felt a little thirsty, and thought about getting a bottle of water to drink, but the water dispenser in the class was empty.
Fortunately, the class was already over, Cheng Jiali took her bottle and hurriedly ran to the next class to see if there was any water, but today is really strange, there is no water in the water dispensers of each class, and who can take care of carrying water during the half-day holiday.
Cheng Jiali's heart was very congested, and Xu Jiaying's soft voice sounded in her ears: "Why don't you buy a bottle of water." β
She slowly turned her face to look at the gentle smile of the goddess, and shook her head steadily, she didn't buy water, it was both a waste of money and a waste.
It has been more than ten minutes since the end of class, but the top students are still fighting in the classroom, and every minute is precious to them. Cheng Jiali knew that the door of the dormitory was about to close at 11 o'clock, and there were really people who still stuck to the last moment, and she also came back late to meet the person who ran back to the dormitory from the classroom in a hurry, and she was still holding the textbook firmly in her arms.
Whenever that time, Cheng Jiali couldn't help but sigh: What a diligent student.
She never stayed in the classroom until that late, and after a self-study session, her classmates would chatter, so noisy that people couldn't calm down and study, so she felt that the dormitory could still be quieter than the classroom.
She would take all the unfinished papers back to the dormitory so that she could concentrate on her studies.
Today, she went back later, and it took a while to find water to drink. She was wandering in the corridor, and Xu Jiaying was standing next to her, looking at her very strangely.
"Are you thinking anything? There is no water in the classroom today......" The ethereal female voice was in her ears, but Cheng Jiali looked at the direction of the school gate fixedly, with a light of surprise in her eyes.
She knew where she was going to find water to drink...... "Follow me." With that, he pulled Xu Jiaying and ran towards the porter.
Cheng Jiali first looked at the door for a while, but the uncle who was guarding the doorman saw a figure walking there, and took the initiative to ask, "What are you doing?" β
Cheng Jiali couldn't help but sigh in her heart, swallowed her saliva, stepped forward boldly, leaned over and smiled: "Uncle, we want to get some water to drink." β
As if she was afraid that the uncle would not believe it, she took out the cup in her hand and shook it in the air, smiling even more happily: "The water dispensers in the class are empty, and we don't want to buy water, so it's ......."
"Come on, come on, come in." The uncle interrupted her next words, smiled and beckoned Cheng Jiali to come in. The uncle has lost the Yan sΓΉ just now, and has turned into a smiling face, which looks much kinder, so that Cheng Jiali is not so nervous.
"The water dispenser is in the room, and you can take as much water as you want." The uncle sat down on the stool, pointed in the direction inside, lit a dry cigarette and smoked.
"If it's dark, turn on the lights." The uncle sat in an open place similar to the living room, and there was a small house inside, and the room was pitch black, and Cheng Jiali fumbled to find the switch.
It was a very small bedroom with only one bed and a water dispenser in a prominent position. Cheng Jiali took a brief look at the place and went to fetch water, and also helped Xu Jiaying get a cup by the way.
Turn off the lights Cheng Jiali slowly walked out of the room, the spacious living room was filled with a strong smell of smoke, the uncle spit out the circles in his eyes, looked at Cheng Jiali not far away with blurred eyes, and asked slowly: "Is it ready?" β
Cheng Jiali nodded slightly, and she could vaguely see the uncle's kind appearance from the shrouded smoke.
Uncle should look like he should be sixty years old, but his white hair looks energetic, especially those eyes, as if he can see through other people's hearts, with the vicissitudes of the world, which reminds her of her physics teacher for no reason.
is also a bad old man, but he has a pair of eyes that can perceive the world, so wise, people can admire it at a glance.
"Grandpa, do you stay in that room at night?" The uncle didn't mind Cheng Jiali changing her name temporarily, but he smiled faintly, coughed lightly for a while, and then nodded in response: "Yes, I'm used to living for a long time." β
"Aren't you cold at night, then?" Cheng Jiali looked at the pitch black there, thinking of the small space with only one bed, and inexplicably felt sad.
"What's cold? There is air conditioning and heating inside, so it's comfortable. The uncle took a puff of dry tobacco and laughed heartily and crisply.
"That's good, that's good." Cheng Jiali also laughed. "How tall are you?" The uncle asked again, and the interest seemed to be very good.
"Senior year of high school." Cheng Jiali responded.
"The doll in the third year of high school is working hard, you should pay attention to your body and don't exhaust yourself from studying." The uncle's voice was soft, and Cheng Jiali felt warm in her heart, and immediately replied: "Grandpa, I know, you also have to take care of your body......"
"That's natural." The uncle took the conversation and laughed to himself. "Alright, let's go and rest early." The uncle waved his hand, Cheng Jiali smiled and said hello and left with Xu Jiaying.
"Jiali, you are really good, the water has been received by the porter." The two laughed as they walked, and Xu Jiaying smiled even more.
I thought it was funny when I thought of the nervous appearance of the two of them just now, "Haha, that's because of my wit." Cheng Jiali said without skin and face, "Do you want to go to the playground?" β
Cheng Jiali looked up at the sky, the full moon in the sky was bright and beautiful, and the many stars were staring at the people on the ground with blinking eyes, as if they had their own thoughts.
The night has its unique tranquil beauty, and the cool breeze blows people very comfortably, especially the playground, with a burst of coolness that makes people feel very comfortable.
Cheng Jiali and Xu Jiaying walked slowly around the playground, the wind blowing their hair, and seemed to bring each other's hearts closer. "It's nice to walk around the playground at night."
The cool breeze was blowing, Cheng Jiali enjoyed the feeling that the wind brought her, and said this inexplicably.
"yes." Xu Jiaying echoed, and the two glanced at each other, and they couldn't stop laughing. Xu Jiaying was even more exaggerated, laughing one after another, and couldn't stand up at all.
Cheng Jiali touched the back of her head, watching the goddess laugh regardless of her image, and felt inexplicable, but this Xu Jiaying took off the cold disguise of the past and became much closer.
"You're so hilarious today." Xu Jiaying laughed so much that she couldn't help herself, with a strong smile in her beautiful female voice.
Xu was a little embarrassed, Cheng Jiali laughed twice, pulled her frizzy hair, and looked thoughtfully at Xu Jiaying, who was smiling so happily.
"What's the matter, what are you looking at me for?" Noticing her different gaze, Xu Jiaying stopped laughing and tilted her head to ask her.
"I realized that you were also cute." Cheng Jiali said what was in her heart, and indeed in contact with Xu Jiaying, she slowly realized that the goddess's cold appearance actually hid a childlike heart. (To be continued.) )
