Volume 1 Qingqing Zijin [Chapter 017] Dreams Fall Short and Welcome the New Year
At this time, the great sense of disappointment was mixed in her heart, and she even forgot the fatigue caused by running. Du Ruolin rushed to the toilet in one go, closed the door and cried. She curled up and crouched down as she cried, the ponytail behind her head shrugging with violent sobs.
A few bad teenagers who were smoking behind the door were stunned, and a buddy subconsciously took out a cigarette butt and threw it on the ground, and shouted silently: "Sorry, scare me." ”
The cigarette butt rolled to Du Ruolin's feet with sporadic flames, she was already crying, but she choked even more at the moment, and said with difficulty: "I'm sorry sisters, I'll cry for a while and leave immediately." ”
These few bad people looked at each other speechlessly, they put on their pants and stood in a row. Helpless eyes looked at each other awkwardly through the swirling smoke behind the sobbing.
After a while, Du Ruolin finally finished venting his emotions, wiped the tears from his face with a sob, and then turned around slowly, but was surprised to see a row of boys behind him leaning against the wall and looking at her meaningfully.
"Girl, you're on the wrong track." A boy teased.
She glanced at the toilet in the row of men's toilets next to her a few times, only to realize that she had gone to the wrong toilet, she quickly reached out to cover her eyes, and staggered around to open the door and rush out of the men's toilet......
Du Ruolin, who was running by himself, blushed, and felt that he had a very bad day. Running some distance away from the toilet, she finally stopped to breathe. But he was unguarded and was tapped on the shoulder from behind, and he was so scared that he almost bit his tongue. She staggered around, and the cross necklace swirled out of her neckline.
The cross necklace shone in the sunlight, attracting the boy's attention.
"What is this?" The boy pointed to the necklace.
Du Ruolin noticed his gaze, and hurriedly put it into the collar with uncoordinated hands, thinking of the stupid thing just now, she lowered her head and asked sullenly: "Uh...... You are? ”
The boy withdrew his gaze from the necklace and grinned, his smile giving a down-to-earth impression: "I just cried in the toilet...... It's you? ”
Seeing that Du Ruolin bowed his head like a quail without answering, he also stopped and considered the words: "Look at your school uniform is a freshman in high school, right?" How did you get to the third year of high school? Did anyone bully you in your junior year of high school? ”
"Oh no, no! It's me who went to the wrong place. ”
"My name is Gu Yuancan, I am in Class 7 of the third year of high school, if someone bullies you in the third year of high school, you can tell me, they dare not give me face."
"Uh, thank you, senior!" She nodded at the boy like a quail, buried her face in her collar and ran away.
Gu Yuancan looked at her back as she ran away with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and touched the short cyan stubble on her chin thoughtfully: "That necklace...... Isn't it Song's? This guy is a junior school girl again? ”
......
Back in the classroom and sat down, You Xizi dragged a bag of snacks and sat beside her and chattered, eyebrows fluttering and screaming with her to describe the newly heard gossip, seeing that Du Ruolin was not in full swing to get involved, but looked like Xizi holding his heart, You Xizi acquiesced to the two sorrowful attitudes for Si Chunzhong, and lowered his voice more excitedly.
"Hey, hey! I'll tell you! I know the name of that handsome guy in Class 12! Want to know or not? Isn't it fun? His name is ......"
Yu Xizi pretended to pause, looking excited, waiting for Du Ruolin's expectant eyes.
But Du Ruolin looked at her with resentful eyes, and his tone was even more choked: "Zhu Chen......"
This reaction was unexpected by Yuxizi: "Hey! How do you know? You know that? ”
At the mention of his name, she was like a child who had lost her candy, knowing that it was gone, but she still grabbed the empty candy wrapper, holding an empty, glass-like fantasy, and refused to let go.
Her lips opened and closed slightly, and the panicked Yusizi leaned close to hear clearly:
"It's just the first time I've ...... Know his name. ”
Mo Yanzheng walked to the class in high spirits, and as soon as he entered the class, he searched for Ruolin's figure, but saw her sitting on the seat wiping her tears, looking very depressed. She smiled, walked lightly, and whispered with worried eyes, "What's wrong with her?" ”
Yu Xizi also shook his head helplessly.
Mo Yan sat in Weng Jiayan's position, smoothed the folds of her back with gentle force, followed her choking unsteady breath, and comforted her in a low voice. Ruolin listened to her soft voice like water plants, and calmed down a lot, but she still didn't say anything, and she didn't know how to speak.
Mo Yan squeezed the palm of her hand hard, and understood that she might have unspeakable hardships, so she didn't ask any more. She sighed and stood up again, her tall body line was like a flag in the wind, and Du Ruolin's most familiar smile bloomed: "Okay, there is a welcome party tonight, I will be the host, relax well, anything will pass by sleeping at night!" ”
"What! Is there a welcome party tonight? ”
Yussizi instantly shifted her attention and stood up all of a sudden, her eyes like polished bells, and she even moved her arms and planned to take out the makeup bag she had hidden in the depths of her desk.
"Yes! I can't even go to class in the afternoon, I have to go to rehearsals. Mo Yan responded.
Yu Xizi excitedly selected the eyeshadow palette and asked in a raised voice, "Then why hasn't the teacher notified me yet?" ”
"I was just notified, so I came over and told you, okay, I'll go first, you can stay with your neighbors more."
Du Ruolin also raised his head and nodded to Mo Yan, watching her short hair jump up and fall vividly when she left, and her heart seemed to be thrown into warm steam, and she became steady.
The orientation party is held to celebrate the arrival of new students, and all teachers and students in the school are in attendance. The content of the program is designed by the student union cadres themselves, and the program list is very eye-catching.
Yu Xizi hurriedly put on makeup and chattered with Xiaofu about tonight's party, with the unique look of anticipation on her face, Du Ruolin watched the sunset have fallen on the playground wall, listening to their jokes from time to time.
......
It was approaching evening, and the pale inky sky mingled with the gray light. The long-awaited evening party began as night fell. The students of all classes enthusiastically lifted their chairs and gathered on the playground in an orderly manner under the leadership of the class teacher.
The lights on the stage have not yet been turned on, the wide dark blue wraps the playground of Shangshu, the air is filled with the moist smell of the green that has been trampled on repeatedly, and the figures are so beautiful that they are like those blurry images in the movie, Du Ruolin is a little in love with this feeling of not being real, and he doesn't have to worry that his expression will get out of control after seeing who and who clearly.
The whole sky was dripping more and more black by the invisible palette, and a lonely pillar of light from the stage clearly reflected the figure of the mosquito, so that the chatting sound of the noisy crowd around was interrupted from time to time, and a loud slapping sound was heard.
"Hey...... Well, the students are quiet, and our orientation party is about to start! ”
The principal's usual hoarse voice, patting the microphone before speaking, and constantly "hey" are no different from the grade assembly every Monday. Later, there were a lot of boring boys who followed behind and imitated them.
After the principal read the opening preamble, he walked off the stage, and the spotlight immediately hit the two hosts on the other side.
The pillar of light followed their footsteps to the center of the stage, the suits and gowns trimming them upright and dignified, the makeup and hairstyles making them look more sophisticated, and the gloss plated on the contours of their bodies, shrouding them in a golden halo.
When Mo Yan, as the hostess, immediately spoke, the whole playground reverberated with a powerful female voice, which made people sigh silently, high-pitched and loud, flowing like spring water, but as vital as wheat rising towards the sun.
Du Ruolin's eyes flashed with Mo Yan's serious and confident appearance, and a large area of brilliant colors seemed to bloom around him, silently spreading in the night sky. She clearly remembered that when she had a long talk with Mo Yan, Mo Yan once told her that her dream in the future was to be a host in the future, and her face was slightly red when she talked about her ideals, but the light in her eyes still couldn't be hidden. At this time, Ruolin was really happy for her, and such a flying aura made her fully believe that Mo Yan was really getting closer and closer to her ideals.
Du Ruolin raised his head in the noisy song and dance performance, and the moonlight in the night sky pierced by the wind seemed to be pouring over, and the moonlight that spanned the entire playground seemed so dim compared to the spotlights on this stage.
The faces of the cheering companions around her projected monotonous colors, and she searched for the past one by one, Zhu Chen and the mushroom-headed girl snuggled together across the entire class, and their happy silhouettes seemed to be reflected on the dark curtain of ink. Du Ruolin looked up again, but in the clear night sky, she couldn't find the galaxy she was looking forward to.
It's as if the already beautiful moonlight was swallowed up by the dazzling stage lights at this time.
She laughed to herself. It seemed that the air around them had thinned out, so she stood up abruptly, ignoring Xizi and Xiaofu's questions, and watched her feet cross row after row of seats, and finally stepped on the ground without projections, like a tragic and romantic escape.
"Let's go, let's go find your own starry sky!" She sighed and went alone.
But when he really walked into the dark path by the playground, Du Ruolin remembered that he was a little night blind. There is also a dark road on the junior high school campus, and every night her best friend Su Xiaoyan pulls her with one hand and holds a flashlight dedicated to illuminating her in the other, illuminating the way back to the dormitory for her. Now the high school far from her hometown is full of lights along the road, but no one takes out a flashlight to illuminate the unknown fear in her heart.
As soon as he thought of turning back again, the voice in his heart became complicated, and Du Ruolin clenched his hands tighter, determined to continue walking. The path cut off from light reverberated with the sound of its own thumping heartbeat and the sound of footsteps falling with a slight force.
"Front...... There seems to be a sound. ”
She followed the sound, vaguely saw a glimmer of light, her steps steady, and quickened towards the clear music, the melodious timbre did not need to be subconsciously distinguished, it was a violin.
Skirting the flowers in front of her, she stumbled and finally saw the light, and she looked around, except for the distant commissary, which was still brightly lit, and only this one room was lit up in the entire campus.
Du Ruolin paused on the steps for a moment, waiting for his eyes to adjust to the bright space, and thought, "Could it be ...... The same person that day again? ”
As she stepped up the steps, she pressed her left ear lightly against the door, the light pouring softly down from the top of her hair, her curly lashes casting a small shade on her eyelids.
is still the song "Swan" on that day, which is not inferior to the palace-level performance. Du Ruolin was fascinated by it, and he couldn't help but automatically construct the picture in the song in his mind, the slender and graceful necks of the swans by the lake swaying in the lake with holy and dazzling sparkling water waves.
The whole piece sounds very smooth without any shortcomings, so smooth that it looks like a music box recording work processed by an assembly line. She even wondered, why only play this song? Is it mechanical practice or leaning over? She caught her guess in the music, but she didn't notice that the door was hidden.
The door seemed to be playing a joke on her forever, and once again pulled away from her clumsy body. Inertia caused her to fly in a section, and she used all her strength and luck to stabilize her heel before she stepped on the ground.
The sound of the piano stopped abruptly the moment she broke in. The boy with the harp and bow in his hand is dressed in mysterious black, and his face looks like a solemn priest who is praying to God but is disturbed by others.
Du Ruolin asked himself: Please, next time, can you change the way for me to play other than "falling"? Embarrassing?
She said with difficulty: "You...... Haven't you closed the door again? ”
"Don't you see the lock is broken?" The man turned his gaze to the lock on the door.
Du Ruolin dragged his waist that had just flashed, followed his line of sight, and saw that the lock on the door was drooping down and a corner was broken.
"Oh......"
The atmosphere suddenly fell into an awkward silence.
"Hey, isn't it at the welcome party, why don't you go", Du Ruolin thought about the topic while smirking, and saw him turn around and put down the piano cherishedly without replying, and then asked.
"Could it be...... You're not from this school? ”
He wiped the pins with a thick black flannel cloth, and finally answered:
"It's so noisy that it pollutes my ears."
"Besides...... Didn't you sneak out too? ”
She lowered her head and kicked the floor on her toes and replied, "It's just some people, I don't want to see ......"
He glanced at her small movements, and a low smile came out of his chest: "Make enemies everywhere at a young age?" ”
"It's just out of sight, right?" Du Ruolin muttered.
He was noncommittal, closing the heavy violin case, which emitted a mellow "squeak" sound.
Du Ruolin stepped forward and asked him in a polite tone: "My name is Du Ruolin, what is your name?" ”
The boy did not speak, and his sharply contoured side face remained silent.
Once again, the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.
Du Ruolin thought uncalmly in his heart. "Is there something wrong with his ears? The school director's son is amazing? ”
With unconvinced thoughts, she couldn't help but speak: "Aren't you the son of the shareholder boss of our school?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it, in fact, she was a person who was not very courageous, how could she suddenly dare to say something that sounded like a provocation, she herself felt a bit outrageous.
The man's body wrapped in a black shirt was tall but thin, and when he looked at him lightly, a small gap would appear in his neck and collar, and he raised his eyebrows to one side and said meaningfully: "You are very clear." ”
After that, he fiddled with the English-style tea set, the complicated patterns and retro handles made Du Ruolin very novel, his gentlemanly movements looked like a cold prince, Du Ruolin looked at it intently, his eyes were amazed.
The aroma of Earl Grey's black tea entered the spleen with the rising steam, and every pore began to breathe lazily, and the mysterious temperament he exuded, as if he had maintained a good cultivation at all times, even if he didn't speak to Du Ruolin, it wouldn't make her feel bored, her eyes unconsciously followed him, and her mouth kept muttering some stupid words.
"Hey! Are you really a local tyrant? Can we be friends? Du Ruolin poked his head out and asked.
The man's face was still the same as usual indifference, like God's carefully carved face showing a trace of impatience, but as soon as he left, Du Ruolin hurriedly followed.
"Oops! Is your home as big as the Forbidden City, and you have to drive a car to go to the toilet? And then it's the same as on TV, what housekeepers and slaves will call you the eldest young master? ”
"Oops, hey......."
"A, what, A? I have a name, Qi Xiu. He frowned, the shredded hair behind his ears hanging softly down to the collar of his black shirt, making him look swept in black from head to end.
Qi Xiu impatiently interrupted her inexplicable questioning, and the impersonal look behind him made him look like a sharp sword quenched with cold light.
Many years later, Du Ruolin recalled this vivid night, and those courages seemed to be given by fate. At that time, she was just an ordinary ignorant girl, but the person sitting in front of her was like a bright star hundreds of millions of light years away, how could she dare to pick up that mysterious and hot superstar.
