Chapter 16: Confiding in your heart
After a week, Gu Yanxi and Lin Qianchuan gradually became acquainted, and Chen Shiyi often came to the café to accompany Gu Yanxi, so the two-person team also became three people.
The café needs to operate and maintain the machine the next day, so you can leave work early today, Chen Shiyi was called to the office by the counselor after class to do chores, and only Gu Yanxi and Lin Qianchuan were left in the café to tidy up the storefront, and the three of them made an appointment to eat something together in the store in the evening and chat.
"Yanxi, wash the cup for me, you go and rest for a while." Lin Qianchuan squeezed Gu Yanxi, who was standing on the edge of the sink, aside and took over the work in her hands.
"It's okay, I don't have much work to do right now." Gu Yanxi was a little embarrassed, Lin Qianchuan was helping her wash her cups for the past few days, and she always felt a little embarrassed.
"Girls shouldn't do this kind of work, go sit down." Lin Qianchuan's words didn't give Gu Yanxi a chance to refuse, he stood motionless by the sink, Gu Yanxi saw that he really couldn't grab it, so he took off his apron and walked out of the front desk, and found a random place to sit down and wait for Chen Shiyi to come.
Looking in the direction of the front desk, Lin Qianchuan just turned sideways, and his tall and slender body bent down slightly to carefully wash the coffee cup. The spotlight above his head was shining right above his head, illuminating him like a cold boy coming out of a comic.
The cold and clear face, the eyes of the cold stars in the middle of the night, are gentle and calm on the surface, but there is stubbornness behind it, and even faintly mixed with a touch of melancholy, cold and clear with a slightly gentle eyes, as if it is a work of art in an Italian museum.
After a brief understanding, Gu Yanxi learned that Lin Qianchuan was also a member of their school, but he was just a junior, and he blamed himself for not seeing him.
Lin Qianchuan has excellent grades, and he is in the same major as Gu Yanxi, and often gives her some professional knowledge.
In Gu Yanxi's eyes, Lin Qianchuan seems to be a special case, he is always alone and doesn't like to deal with anyone, which is very similar to her. If he hadn't met Li Chen in advance, maybe Lin Qianchuan would have become a more special person.
"I'm coming, I'm coming! I just ordered something to eat at the noodle shop opposite, and I guess I'll deliver it in a while. There is nothing to drink, I am dying of thirst! ”
Before you see him, you hear his voice first.
This person must be Chen Shiyi, she rushed into the store in a hurry, and it happened that Lin Qianchuan also cleaned up the front desk and walked out.
"What do you want to drink?"
"Hehe, anything but coffee, it's easy to can't sleep at night." Chen Shiyi gritted her teeth and smiled, and the two small pear vortices hung on both sides of her face to show that she was very cute.
"Okay." Lin Qianchuan nodded lightly, and turned back to the front desk to make drinks for everyone.
"Thank you, Senpai Asakawa!"
Gu Yanxi pulled the grinning Chen Shiyi to sit down beside him, frowned slightly and whispered, "You're not polite at all, someone just helped me finish brushing the cup." ”
"Oh, let him do it if he wants to! You see he's not very happy, and seriously you can consider developing with him, I think he's interesting to you. Chen Shiyi shrunk her neck and bit her ears with Gu Yanxi in the same whisper, looking like she had seen through everything, raising her eyebrows and smiling evilly on the two of them.
"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't mean that." Gu Yanxi patted Chen Shiyi's arm to hide his discomfort.
"That's all there is in the store, you can make do with it." Lin Qianchuan came over with a plate and put the three glasses of drinks on the round table, Lin Qianchuan naturally sat next to Gu Yanxi, causing Chen Shiyi to hint at Gu Yanxi frantically.
"Thank you, senior." Gu Yanxi secretly pressed the restless Chen Shiyi, and nodded politely to Lin Qianchuan to express his gratitude.
"Just call me Asakawa."
"Asakawa ...... Senior. Gu Yanxi couldn't call out the two words Asakawa alone, and he held back for a long time and became a combination.
"It doesn't matter, how you get used to it." Lin Qianchuan smiled indifferently.
The three of them sat and chatted for a while, and the meal from the restaurant next door was delivered, and everyone chatted without a word while eating, and Chen Shiyi was chatting non-stop throughout the whole process, while Lin Qianchuan and Gu Yanxi were dealing with it casually.
"Senior Asakawa, why do you feel like you're not very happy every day, and you feel a lot of pressure? You don't seem to have any friends. ”
After hearing this, Gu Yanxi glanced at Lin Qianchuan's expression, and then poked Chen Shiyi with his elbow to signal her not to ask more, this should be a sensitive topic.
Gu Yanxi is precisely because she is in this adversity, so she understands the feeling of being asked.
"It's nothing ...... to talk to you" Lin Qianchuan lowered his eyes, and his already dull eyes were even darker, "It's almost all xenophobic people in Chinese schools, so I don't like to make friends with them." The main reason is that my family has just experienced a catastrophe, and all the burdens are on me. It's natural to be unhappy when you're stressed, and I guess you'll be able to experience this kind of feeling. ”
Chen Shiyi's family background is rich, and she never has to worry about food and clothing, but Gu Yanxi can understand Lin Qianchuan's feelings in this matter.
"Actually, I don't have any friends, you should be the only friends." When Gu Yanxi said this, what came to mind was Li Chen's face, could he also be considered her friend?
Or is he just his sister's ex-boyfriend, hers, brother-in-law?
"Come on, let's vent our vent today, and let's talk about all our unhappiness!"
Chen Shiyi took the lead in raising the glass, Gu Yanxi and Lin Qianchuan glanced at each other and followed suit, maybe it's okay to say this, right?
"Two years ago, my sister died in an accident, my dad went to jail, my mom went crazy, and now I'm in foster care in a home that has nothing to do with me. Every day when I open my eyes, all I think about is to study hard and make money, and one day I will have to repay the kindness of the person who raised me, and I will also make money to treat my mother and support my father. ”
This is the first time Gu Yanxi has talked about family matters, Chen Shiyi has asked her before, but she didn't ask anything, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad when she suddenly said it.
"So when you were in high school, you didn't go to school for nearly half a month because of this?" Chen Shiyi hugged Gu Yanxi's hand distressedly, staring at her with red eyes.
"It's all gone, and the living have to face it, don't they?" Gu Yanxi gave Chen Shiyi a comforting smile back, and his eyes were full of the vicissitudes of the red dust.
During this period, Lin Qianchuan did not say a word, but listened quietly as a listener. It may also be that there is resonance, and his eyes looking at Gu Yanxi have some light.
"Asakawa sensala, what about you?" Chen Shiyi shifted his attention to Lin Qianchuan again.
"My dad passed away a long time ago, my mom was seriously ill, and she couldn't do anything to treat the family's small business, so she could only rely on my scholarship and part-time job at school to make money." Lin Qianchuan said lightly about the situation at home, it seems that the clouds are light and light, but Gu Yanxi can feel that kind of powerlessness, she is lucky, at least there is Li Chen behind her back to help her, but Lin Qianchuan is not so lucky, he can only rely on himself.
"Miss, we've both been selling miserably for a long time, can you also tell us about your sad history?" Lin Qianchuan didn't want to discuss this kind of thing anymore, so he quickly pointed the signs at Chen Shiyi, and Gu Yanxi was also forced to pull back from his sadness to reality and turned his head to look at Chen Shiyi.
"My tragic experience, let me think about it......" Chen Shiyi really thought hard, but her family was happy and happy, even if there was anything wrong, her parents may not have told her, and there was only one thing she could think of......
"My previous crush on Fa Xiao got married, and just this year, the bride is also Chinese. Since they are all Chinese, why not look for me? ”
“……”
“……”
Chen Shiyi fell into her own world of grief, looking at the sky with her hands on her face and rolling her eyes, Gu Yanxi and Lin Qianchuan looked at each other and shook their heads tacitly, this link is completely over.
Gu Yanxi couldn't go home too late, and their dinner ended just after dark.
It is precisely because of this heart-to-heart conversation that Lin Qianchuan has completely become their friend, and the relationship has become closer, and they often make an appointment to eat together at noon.
The gathering of three of the school's influential figures caused a lot of strong dissatisfaction.
