Chapter Seventy-Six: Lunch Together
I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Now it's starting to update normally, at a rate of 1~2 chapters per day. The previous week was really tiring, and I basically didn't do anything else except work and code words every day, and even eating, sleeping, and drinking water were avoided. For my sake, I hope you will support me a lot! Flowers, recommended, smashed hard.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Gong Xiping, please don't get me wrong, I think that there are so many people in the whole school, we are not in the same class, but we are fortunate to sit at the same table to eat, and we are sitting next to each other, this should be fate. Of course, there are many kinds of fate, parents and children are fate, teachers and classmates are fate, and friends are also fate. I thought, since we are destined to know each other, why can't we be friends?
Maybe my surname is because of my surname, but I pay more attention to fate. We've only known each other for a short time, so you may not know me very well. However, I feel that we are like old friends who have known each other for a long time. So, I sincerely want to be friends with you. Whether you think it's abrupt or presumptuous, I just don't want to miss out on the fate of our thousands of acquaintances.
If you still feel that we are not familiar with each other and do not understand each other, then we might as well have more contact and understand each other. When the time comes, if you think I'm worth dating, then we'll be friends. If you think I'm not worth dating, then let's get to know each other, and don't forget to say hello when we meet in the future. Do you think it's okay? ”
Seeing this text message, Gong Xiping felt a little ashamed.
Jing Rumeng was not familiar with him, and he had just met. But, anyway, the family is only 17 years old. 17 years old is the age when you dare to think, dare to do, dare to fight, and dare to break through. As long as you identify a goal, you dare to do it, which is the momentum of young people. At the same time, 17-year-olds are more intuitive in doing things, and usually judge problems based on their own feelings or likes and dislikes.
As Jing Rumeng said, the reason why she is close to Gongxi Ping is that she simply feels that the two are fated, and it is more pleasing to the eye to see Gong Xiping. That alone felt that was enough. She and Gong Xiping should be able to make friends.
It's just that although Gong Xiping is 17 years old on the surface, he is already an adult at heart. Adults have the precaution and vigilance of adults. Moreover, Gong Xiping also has an occupational disease, that is, no matter what kind of person or thing he encounters, as long as he is unfamiliar, he will remain vigilant at any time.
Therefore, he took the initiative to show favor to Jing Rumeng, and adopted an attitude of avoidance and keeping a distance. However, Jing Rumeng is a smart girl, and she can easily detect Gong Xiping's attitude of rejecting people from the door, so she will send this long text message.
Gong Xiping sighed. No matter how you say it, every girl in the family has said this, if you look like you are rejecting people thousands of miles away, it will be too hurtful. Therefore, Gong Xiping replied: "It's okay, let's learn more about it in the future." ”
After 10 seconds, Jing Rumeng replied: "Okay, then learn more." Don't bother me! ”
"No, it won't." Gong Xiping replied.
×××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××× autumn tour is over, and everything seems to be back to normal again. However, everything is not normal, but it started after returning from the autumn trip.
Because I am about to face the midterm exam, the entire second year of high school will be immersed in intense revision and preparation. Therefore, the school decided to add an extra class after school every day as a review class for various subjects until the end of the midterm exams.
December 5, 2011.
Today is the first day of classes after the autumn outing.
Gong Xiping stepped into the classroom at 7:19:40. To his surprise, the head teacher, Duanmujiao, did not appear in the classroom. But he doesn't care anymore, because he estimates that Duanmujiao will arrange for him to be transferred to Class 8 when school ends today at the latest.
However, the whole morning's class was over, and Duanmujiao still didn't show up.
Gong Xiping touched his pocket and found that the cigarette was brought, but he forgot to bring the lighter. He couldn't smoke without a lighter, so he decided to buy a lighter at a small shop outside the school first.
When he was about to leave, he saw Ai Tingting and Xi Yuling standing in front of him at the same time.
"What's the matter?"
In this sentence, Gong Xiping asked Ai Tingting. Because he knew that Xi Yuling was looking for him just to go to lunch with him. But he didn't know why Ai Tingting was looking for him.
"That ......" Ai Tingting looked at Xi Yuling, "I have something I want to tell you, can I talk to you alone?" ”
Although this sentence was said to Gong Xiping, Ai Tingting looked at Xi Yuling when she spoke. Xi Yuling looked at Ai Tingting, and Ai Tingting looked at her fearlessly. The two looked at each other for a full 5 seconds, and then Xi Yuling moved his gaze away, and said, "Let's talk, I'll go to the cafeteria first." ”
After Xi Yuling finished speaking, he turned around and walked away. Gong Xiping looked at her back, but always felt that she was a little different from before.
"Ai Tingting, what do you want to tell me?" Gong Xiping asked.
"It's not convenient to talk here." Ai Tingting looked around the classroom, "That's it, there is a tea restaurant near the school, I'll invite you to lunch." ”
Gong Xiping thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's go there." Still, I'll please. ”
Ai Tingting didn't expect Gong Xiping to agree so happily, in addition to feeling a little surprised, she also felt a little proud. There aren't many opportunities to have lunch alone with Gong Xiping.
So, under the guidance of Ai Tingting, the two came to the tea restaurant. In fact, this tea restaurant is not near the school as Ai Tingting said. It's actually quite far from the school, and it's about a 20-minute walk for two people.
But fortunately, there are not many people in the café. After the two walked in, they quickly found a seat and sat down. As soon as the two of them sat down, the waiter immediately served the menu. Ai Tingting should be quite familiar with this place, so she glanced at the menu and immediately chose what she wanted to eat. Gong Xiping read the menu several times, and then chose what he wanted to eat.
"It's delicious, I've been here many times, and I'm sure you'll love it too." Ai Tingting said confidently.
"If you can enter the eyes of your eldest lady, then this place is naturally good." Gong Xiping nodded.
"Actually, I'm not very picky, especially when it comes to food."
"Yes. You are more accommodating than you think. ”
"Oh? So what do you imagine me to be like? Ai Tingting asked with interest.
"I thought you were a big lady with a full temper, like to put on a show, and always look like you are above the top. But now I see that you're actually pretty easy to get along with. ”
Ai Tingting was very happy when she heard this, she smiled, and immediately brightened up the slightly deserted restaurant. Gong Xiping's words made her feel like she was going to fly.
"What do you want to say to me?" Gong Xiping asked.
When Ai Tingting heard this, she suddenly twisted a little. She thought about it for a while, and finally said, "This weekend, my family is going to have a party." My dad said I could invite my friends to come, so, I want to invite you ......"
Gong Xiping nodded and said, "Oh, you want to invite me to your party?" ”
"Yes."
"Weekend, what day of the week is exactly?"
"Saturday."
"Well, I'll have time on Saturday too." Gong Xiping said, "You can text me with your home address and the time of the party in a moment." ”
Ai Tingting suddenly felt a little in a trance, she didn't expect Gong Xiping to agree to her so easily. Originally, she didn't have much hope, she thought that Gong Xiping would refuse, and she had prepared a lot of arguments before. Unexpectedly, Gong Xiping really agreed, which made Ai Tingting feel extremely excited. I'm afraid I'm going to lose sleep at night before Saturday.
"Well, okay. I'll send it to you in a moment. I was going to send a car to pick you up, but my dad said that the driver was expected to be very busy that day, so I had to let you come by yourself. ”
"It doesn't matter." Gong Xiping paused, and then said, "What kind of gift do you like?" ”
Ai Tingting blurted out: "As long as you send it, I like it." When he said that, he immediately realized that he had lost his words. Her face turned red, and she immediately changed her words: "You...... It's good that you can come, what kind of gift to give. ”
"Don't you give you a gift?" Gong Xiping asked.
Ai Tingting's eyes widened when she heard this: "You...... How do you know it's me? ”
Gongxi smiled indifferently and said: "Generally speaking, if a party is held at home, and classmates can also participate, it is naturally a family party." Holding a house party is nothing more than two situations. One is to celebrate holidays, such as Christmas or New Year's Day. The other is to live a life. You're partying this weekend, there's no festival on the weekend, and it's Christmas in two weeks. Therefore, the party held at this time should be a living party. ”
Ai Tingting looked at him in disbelief, and only said after a while: "You...... Are you Conan? ”
"Why do you say that?"
"It's amazing that your head, I really don't know how it grows, can make such an inference like Conan."
"Reasoning? Wasn't Conan a barbarian? Not the one played by Schwarzenegger? Gong Xiping asked puzzled.
"God, are you really joking? Detective Conan, you don't even know? A genius high school detective who has taken medicine and become smaller, although he is the body of a child, he is the mind of an adult. Are you sure you don't know? ”
Gong Xiping was stunned when he heard this.
The body of an adult's mind and a child's body, what kind of detective is this, seems to be somewhat similar to himself.
"I really don't know." Gong Xiping replied honestly.
"Oh my God, there are still people who don't know Conan. I've really met rare animals! Ai Tingting looked at Gong Xiping, her face full of incredulity.
Looking at Ai Tingting, Gong Xiping suddenly smiled. I don't know why, he seems to feel that the distance between him and Ai Tingting seems to have narrowed a lot, and his attitude towards her seems to have changed a lot unconsciously. Maybe it's because she's not as temperamental as she imagined, or maybe it's because she thinks her real surname is actually quite kind.
When he heard that night that Ai Tingting admitted to Li Pingzhi for himself, he was indeed a little moved. The eldest lady is willing to form a team with the people she hates, the purpose is to wash away her grievances. Don't talk about Gong Xiping, anyone will be moved.
The reason why he did not hesitate to agree to Ai Tingting to attend her birthday party today is also due to some reasons.
He took out his Chinese cigarette from his pocket and put it in his mouth, then picked up the free lighter from the dining room table. Use your little finger backhand to "snap" and make a fire, and then light the cigarette from your mouth. Gong Xiping's action of lighting a cigarette is always so alternative and chic.
Take a deep breath and exhale. Gong Xiping's smoking appearance looks so vicissitudes and decadence, which makes people feel that he has endless experiences and stories, and also makes people feel that he can't say the charm and sense of surname.
Ai Tingting looked at Gong Xiping smoking, and suddenly had an impulse. She suddenly wanted to lie in his arms like this, hugging him tightly, tightly, tightly, and whispering something to him, all the ......while, forever
