Chapter 12: "Me and the Sunshine"

Back to school, I feel much more relaxed. Every day, I am busy writing papers and producing graduation projects. The students in the class are looking for jobs, and the local students rarely come to school. The classmates in the same dormitory sometimes don't see each other for a month.

Zhou Ai, like me, is a student from other places, and she plans to return to her hometown after graduation to develop. Ma Yuanzhi and her boyfriend live in a rented house outside, so under normal circumstances, she and I stay in the dormitory.

Zhu Qian, a classmate upstairs, has always been a big mouth, and she usually likes to play crazy with boys. Sometimes there is no distinction between men and women, and the Tao is different, so they rarely interact. On this day, she came to me to borrow painting tools and chatted a few words. She said that she would go back to her hometown after graduation, and her boyfriend had already met her parents and was a police officer. In fact, Zhou Ai and I are not curious about these, and while we are bored flipping through the books, we listen to it as gossip.

Zhu Qian pushed my arm and raised her eyebrows: "Eh, Xiang Wan, don't you have a boyfriend yet?" ”

"What's wrong, what's wrong with not having a boyfriend?" I didn't even lift my eyelids, and I thought the topic was boring.

"What's the matter, I'm going to graduate, and I haven't seen you talk about a boyfriend! Be careful that you can't get married in the future. "Zhu Qian's words are always so unpleasant, we can't talk about friends, I don't think it's funny like this.

"Why do I have to have a boyfriend now, I don't want to."

"Don't want to find it yet?! My boyfriend helped me find a job so I could go straight to work after graduation. And we've all met my parents, and his mom is very fond of me. Let me tell you, when girls age fast, they should find a reliable person to marry, and they will have to fight for a few years if they are powerful and powerful. Zhu Qian leaned against the table and lifted her legs, smiling proudly.

I laughed and said, "Oh, that's hello." Yu Guang saw Zhou Ai secretly grimacing at Zhu Qian over there.

"Xiang Wan, a person like you who hasn't been in love yet, it's easy to smash your hands and not be able to get married when the time comes." Zhu Qian pursed her lips and raised her eyebrows at me again.

"Zhu Qian, you have too much to worry about, Xiang Wan is young and has capital, what are you worried about? You can find it slowly. Zhou Ai really couldn't look past Zhu Qian's demented appearance, and couldn't help but pour cold water.

"I'm for your good, Xiang Wan." Zhu Qian glanced at Zhou Ai and continued: "Hey, forget it, forget it if you don't listen to persuasion." ”

"Aren't you busy? Is there no one in your dormitory? Zhou Ai issued an eviction order.

Zhu Qian rolled her eyes, very unhappy, "If you don't welcome me, I'll go." Do you still want this brush? Don't just send me, right? Before Zhu Qian went out, she waved at me with a brush.

"Then you take it." I waved my hand.

"Bye-bye." Zhu Qian shook her head, swaggered away, and made a face at Zhou Ai.

"Cut!" Zhou Ai was dismissive.

"Xiang Wan, you shouldn't give her the brush if you throw it away! Look at her like that. "Zhou Ai is very angry, Zhou Ai is like a boy's character, especially rigid, I am glad that she is by my side, she has always helped me refuse and refute others, she is like a boss who covers me in everything.

"Hey, I can't bring back so many things anyway, so let her do whatever she wants." I'm a little helpless.

"Xiang Wan, you are easy to suffer like this, look at what she said! She's worried that she won't be able to get married, and she's more than two years older than us. "Zhou Ai is upset for me.

"Hey, you know she's that kind of person, so you don't think you heard it." Zhou Ai and I looked at each other and smiled.

"Oops, looks like there's a solar eclipse today?" Zhou Ai jumped up suddenly, "Let's go, let's find a place to look." I've got all my glasses ready, I'm here for you! Zhou Ai took out a pair of glasses from the cabinet and handed it to me.

"Ah, you're very well prepared." I took it with a smile.

A text message sound came from the phone.

When I looked at it, it was Mu Liang who sent it: There is a solar eclipse today, and I can't see it here, so protect your eyes when you look at it.

"Look at what you see, laugh when you look at it." Zhou Ai came over.

"It's nothing, let's go." I pushed Zhou Ai.

It's a little grey outside. When I came to the vicinity of the playground, there were already many people looking up on the main road and the playground. We followed the trend and looked to the sky. The sun slowly seemed to be eaten little by little, and the light dimmed, and after a few minutes, it gradually became brighter again.

Mu Liang kept asking me what the solar eclipse looked like, and he was very sorry that he didn't see it.

I replied as I walked.

"Eh, you have so many text messages now, it seems that it is not the same as before." Zhou Ai took my arm and smiled evilly at me.

"What's the difference, no." I nudged her and laughed at her for being indecent.

"Hehe, I don't think you're normal." Zhou Ai smiled meaningfully.

Back in the dormitory, I saw that Mu Liang's social mood label had changed his mood: Jingle Cat, the sun will not be blocked forever, it has always been there, and I am there.

My heart was pounding, and Jingle Bell was my social nickname, so there was no doubt that this was written for me. He never confided in him, but his words were like a good medicine.

I iced my hot face with my hands, and looked at Zhou Ai in the afterglow, I breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she didn't see it, otherwise she would have laughed at me again.

It just so happened that this time was free, and I remembered to look up what 8023 means. It turned out to be love, so obscure and special. I began to feel uneasy. I can't start to look directly at the goodnight text messages he sent, so I'm not going to be stupid anymore, right? It's not very responsible to delay people, right? But when I think of him, my heart always beats very fast, and now I often can't help but want to share my joy and anger with him, such an obvious feeling, I can't seem to fool myself.

This thin and tall boy, from the first time they met, seemed to be imprinted in his heart, and his appearance always flashed in front of his eyes from time to time. Such a sunny boy with a spring breeze on his face must be a happy child, he must have been born in a happy family and grew up under care since he was a child. Maybe it's a gentleman with a good family condition? Maybe it's a master of love like this to everyone? I can't afford to play the emotional game, and I can't afford to lose. I didn't have much originally, but I didn't get it, but I was calm, and now it's hard to calm my mood.

Tossing and turning at night, I secretly made a decision.

Picking up my phone, this time I replied to his goodnight text.

"I just know what 8023 means, I'm sorry, I may not be able to accept it, you better take it back, don't send it in the future, otherwise you won't even be able to do it." Sending this text message, my heart was a little painful, and the pillow was unconsciously wet.

"Why? I can't take it back if I say it, let's get along, okay? Mu Liang replied to me quickly.

I seemed to see him whispering with his head bowed and frowning, and suddenly my heart felt like something was being dragged by something.

"I can't afford to play the game of feelings, I'm sorry." Although I can't bear it, at this time I especially hope that he is really just a game, and I hope that his answer is no.

"Who said this is a game! Feelings will only play with fire and self-immolation, I'm not that kind of person, just get along for a while and see, you can't just deny me like this. "I didn't expect Mu Liang to be a persistent person with such a firm tone.

"I'm not necessarily what you see, maybe I'll be disappointed later." I don't have confidence in myself, and I don't have faith in love when I see my parents as they are.

"How do you know if you haven't tried it? Give each other a chance, okay? It's late, you go to bed first, good night, 8023" Mu Liang still sent this closing remarks, the topic has not been finished yet, is this an evasion question?

I covered my mouth and hid under the covers and sobbed silently, but I was still fit to stay in the dark. I didn't have, and I won't be disappointed, I'm a coward.
