011 Malice and Response
The lesson was nearing its end, and there was no nutrition as usual, although she was basically distracted throughout the class, but the content of the lecture could be understood by anyone as long as she combed through the textbook a little, and, in addition to these objective circumstances, the male lecturer on the podium could always make some vague but by no means positive emotions flash in her brain.
Let's get out of class early, the girl blatantly looked out the window, knowing that it was useless, but still began to pray that the time would go faster - the last class in the afternoon ended at six o'clock, and when there were about five minutes before the end of class, the girl had already habitually packed up her textbooks and notebooks, and was completely ready to leave.
But when it came to leaving at the end, there were some troubles:
"About your holiday report," said the male teacher after the end of the class and announcing the end of the classβalthough I can't remember his name very clearly, but I can still find the information that his surname is Li in my memory, "and you can talk about it for a while, as it relates to the final evaluation of your scholarship." β
The girl's heart teacher famously tightened as if such a thing had ever happened.
ββββββββββββββββ
"Let's talk about the specifics, classmate," there are still some sparse students in the classroom, and since this is the last class of the day, the more procrastinating part of these people may not leave the classroom until half an hour later, so Lu Xinlei also thinks that even if it is expected according to the worst possibility, this Teacher Li will not do anything too out of the ordinary, and there is no legitimate reason to refuse such a talk.
The teacher surnamed Li was not in a hurry to say anything, he returned to the podium after stopping Lu Xinlei and packed up his classroom utensils, until the crowd at the door of the classroom had thinned out, he packed up the things at hand and beckoned the girl to come to the podium: "We know your situation very well, and the assessment team also attaches great importance to your situation." β
ββ¦β¦γβ Lu Xinlei didn't answer, she had already flipped through the trash of memories during the time she was waiting to find a part of the memories related to this man, related to her bad part of the premonition, the impression and memories brought to her by this teacher surnamed Li can definitely not be said to be positive.
"We all know your problems, and if they are not solved properly, they may affect the final evaluation results. So if you have time, you can come to my office or ......," he took out a note notebook from his pocket and lay down on the desk to write, "Anyway, let's take some time to talk about it lately, and it's not appropriate to say anything serious here." β
"If you don't come and talk about it in detail, our work here will be very difficult." He paused, and the gaze behind his eyes swept over the girl's whole body briefly, "Of course, it's not that you are forced to talk, but the competition for scholarships is still quite fierce, and there are some problems that are not solved well, and it is difficult to say that there will be a suitable result." β
The girl didn't want to think about what was going on after the teacher's words, and there was no need to think about it, for some perceptive people, such a statement was almost the same as directly picking out the words.
But should it be said that he is really a character who is qualified to teach big classes, such hints can be rounded up in an official tone that sounds no problem.
This kind of conversation is in the trash can of the girl's memories more than once, so after digging through the memories in these corners, the ominous familiarity that this way of speaking gives the girl has also become a definite disgust. The last time it was hinted at was long before the man's eerie dreams, the day before the girl had the memories of the former pro, probably because the hints behind her had crossed her threshold in great stride, and the conversations were quickly thrown into the "should be forgotten" section after she heard them.
This is the reason why she did not notice the problem at the first time, and no one wanted to put unpleasant memories on the surface of the memory and be threatened all the time.
"That, Mr. Li......" resisted the urge to leave directly, she still considered the words and responded, after all, as a professional teacher in her next school year, the 31-year-old part of her mind didn't want to completely stiffen the relationship with him, "This kind of thing, I think it's okay to talk about it online." Nowadays, social tools have message records, which are easy to check and can be explained clearly to anyone. β
"That's too impersonal, I just hate these things now, and I can talk about the issues that can be discussed clearly after meeting three times and two times, so I have to say it through the two layers of screens," the middle-aged man stopped writing, turned his head and stared at the girl in front of him openly, "And there are some things, Xiao Lu, you also have to learn it, many things are not what you say, but more about your attitude and actions, even if you can say it, if you don't express your attitude, it will be difficult to convince the public." β
"...... "Although more memories tell the girl that she doesn't need to be uncomfortable with other people's gazes, that part of her instinct still makes her can't help but take half a step back under the man's undisguised gaze." What do you mean ......"
"I know your situation, I went to your class guide to understand, your family is not very harmonious, and your current life is also very difficult, everyone understands this." The teacher surnamed Li looked at Lu Xinlei's expected reaction, and a little smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, "But your class guide also said that you are a very strong girl, and I am worried that you are unwilling to lower your body for one reason or another, I think you are not as stupid as he said, aren't you quite clever." β
"That's it, you know my office, usually no one else comes, and it doesn't matter if you have any difficulties there, don't worry about others laughing at you. If you have the right attitude, I think your conditions for this academic year's bursary are quite suitable. β
The man grinned, he was one of the teachers of the same age who paid more attention to appearance, if it weren't for what he had just said, and the distorted hints in his words, he would have left a good impression in the girl's heart: "I'll be in the office after class for a while, and you can come to me anytime after class in the afternoon, I'm basically there." β
"Of course, if you figure it out, you can come to me after school, or on Saturdays and Sundays."
He stretched out his hand and showed the girl in front of him a sticky note he had just written, with the name and four numbers of an inn outside the school clearly written on it.
It's been undisguised, the girl bit the tip of her tongue, and resisted the urge to snatch the note and tear it up - if the girl was still the simple Lu Xinlei she used to be, she might have done this, but now the more mature part reminded her that it was not a good choice to clash with a classroom teacher here.
"Remember to hurry, I will submit the final evaluation form and recommendation results next weekend, I don't feel good about anyone who is brushed off by these good seedlings on my side."
It may be that he saw through the girl's patience, and the man who knew how to get to the point did not continue to give more expressions to the girl who had lowered her head and couldn't see her expression clearly, but left the classroom easily after saying the words, leaving only Lu Xinlei standing in place.
Fortunately, there were other people scattered in the classroom, and the girl standing there alone was not very eye-catching, and no one would pay more attention to it.
ββββββββββββββββ
Everything happens for a reason, or in other words, everything that happens in the world is connected by inextricable causes and effects, and this network of connections transcends time and space, and beats between people and things, and is cause and effect of each other.
Although this kind of thing should not have happened, perhaps for her in the past, thinking about this kind of filth was a kind of stain in itself. However, objectively speaking, she should have taken some precautions against this kind of thing, and leaving behind the things she didn't want to encounter was an unrealistic evasion in itself.
However, this is not a very good time to say this, it is about an hour after the girl returns to the dormitory, even in terms of the distance between the dormitory and the lecture hall, this time is quite unusual, but since this class is the last class of the afternoon, it is not strange to return to the dormitory at this time.
Therefore, only Wu Leyi, who was waiting for her to go to dinner together, realized that something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" She glanced at her roommates, who were all going on around her, and asked softly next to the girl who had buried her head in her arms when she got back to the dorm.
ββ¦β¦ It's nothing. β
Lu Xinlei didn't raise her head to answer her question until she was waiting a little impatiently, but the expression on her face was completely unrelated to "nothing":
"Sister, I'm afraid I'm not up to your ......"
"I didn't plan to do that." Wu Leyi blinked twice, as if she saw something, and reached out to pull the girl's shoulders and pulled her up from the chair, "Don't be ashamed, do you really think I don't know anything?" Go out and settle the dinner first. β
Then, Wu Leyi, who was more than a head taller than the girl in front of her, pushed her out of the bedroom, I don't know who can be called lucky, there is no other person in the corridor now, the tall girl turned her body after pushing Lu Xinlei to leave the door of the bedroom slightly, staring at the girl's expressionless face:
"It was the guy surnamed Li who told you something, yes or no."
In a word, Lu Xinlei naturally had no reason to hide this matter, so she nodded along with the words of the girl who pinched her shoulder.
"I ...... Well," after getting the real feedback, Wu Leyi looked away and sighed shallowly, "If this kind of thing happens, I am not qualified to instruct you what to do, go and eat dinner first, you have to take care of your own affairs after all." β
The girl nodded again and followed her out, there was some tacit understanding between the two, or there was no communication between the two along the way, everyone knew why, but neither could say why. It wasn't until the two of them finished what they had to do in silence that on the way back, Lu Xinlei broke the silence without a tail.
"The final verdict is next weekend, he said."
"Well," Wu Leyi raised her head to look at the street lights lit up on the side of the road, and replied with the same beginning, "Lei Lei, do you think I'm stupid?" β
"Not at all."
Hearing such an answer, the girl smiled, but from Lu Xinlei's perspective, she couldn't see whether there was a smile in her eyes: "Then you should have known that I knew that you didn't like me very much." β
"This statement is such a mille-feuille," Lu Xinlei didn't know what to say for a while, "I'm sorry." β
There are a lot of things I want to ask, but at first glance, none of them are suitable for the current atmosphere.
"Now you know I'm sorry? It's late. The girl stretched out her hand and grabbed the back of the girl's neck, "Dare to look down on me, I don't have your good fruit to eat." β
The girl knew that she was in danger and did not dodge, and left her at her mercy like a cat being carried by the back of her neck for a while, until she heard a short sigh from behind her:
"Then don't you ask, why can't I be cruel to you even though I know this?" The girl stopped, her eyes still on the level of the street lamp, "You girl looks smart, but she doesn't understand others at all, sometimes I think I don't care about you anymore, so it would be better to let you go out and hit a bag by yourself." β
"But in the end, no, if you give in a little soft, we'll start to help you...... That's right, it's us. β
"Well, I can see that lately." Lu Xinlei is also telling the truth, even if she doesn't dig up her past memories, judging from her performance in the last week, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a group pet, "So I'm very, well, I feel very sorry for you now, like this." β
"Everybody has ever been stupid," the girl withdrew her hand, "but you're the stupidest of all." β
Lu Xinlei couldn't refute it, so she could only make an apologetic machine mechanically:
"I'm sorry."
"That's stupid."
Wu Leyi simply stretched out her hand and turned the girl in front of her - the girl could see that she actually liked this kind of extremely controlling movement, but there was nothing bad about it, so she never said anything.
"Especially me, I hate this kind of silly girl." After turning around, Lu Xinlei was in front of Wu Leyi's delicately maintained face, and her expression was very serious - seriously hating herself, both, "Because it looks the same as me before." β
"I know you dislike me for being indecent, and I admit that I'm not a good person, but I was just as stupid as you used to be - although I can only say that my skills are inferior in the field of drilling bull's horns." She blinked her left eye self-deprecatingly, not shy away from her life, "So when I look at you, I'm worried that you're going to the wrong way than me." β
"Don't you think it's bad to rub other people's things all the time? Do you feel like you can take responsibility for your own business? It's just going to make you think, 'As long as you can take care of yourself, it doesn't matter what you do' β that's what I thought. β
Lu Xinlei wanted to refute slightly, but after carefully inquiring about her heart, she had to admit that if she simply let the girl named "Lu Xinlei" make her own decision, she might indeed go down such a path - under the most extreme possibility.
"Ah, indeed, if you really go with the flow like this, hanging a man to raise a spare tire and suck blood, you can really live a very nourishing life, but the big Wu Leyi has me enough, and one more is not much, but there are some things to be explained."
Her expression was serious, and indeed it should be:
"Anyway, I still have time for you to think, what I say next is superfluous, this week you have to drill this truth, think about which side you are going to - no matter how you choose, I won't say anything, everything is up to you."
