Part 2: The Ivory Tower Tragedy Chapter 4
On the night of November 1st, the Student Activity Center comes alive with the annual Student Union Orientation Party.
Liu Jingjing is a member of the school's student union, and tonight she will be cheered by many boys and walk on the stage and sing a heavenly song.
For two weeks, the non-stop rehearsals made her at a loss for everything that happened to Meng Ting. Of course, I would not have thought that a week ago, my two friends had a huge change, one fell into the flowers of love, and the other almost fell into the abyss of pain.
No one would have thought that Gao Wenxiang's girlfriend He Meina is also a member of the school's student union and a member of the General Affairs Department. On the night of the party, Gao Wenxiang accompanied He Meina to watch the performance.
When it was Liu Jingjing's turn to show, Gao Wenxiang was taken aback in the audience, not expecting that his childhood friend and his girlfriend were both members of the school's student union. At that party, Liu Jingjing, like the last welcome party, once again became the highlight of this performance, with her beautiful and delicate appearance and wonderful singing, which made many boys in the audience continue to applaud.
After the party, all the students walked out of the student activity center like a trend. The exit was very close to the bathroom, and at this time, Liu Jingjing came out of the bathroom, looked at the crowd, and inadvertently saw Gao Wenxiang and He Meina holding hands, talking and laughing inside.
Liu Jingjing was taken aback, and she couldn't believe her eyes at that moment. Liu Jingjing couldn't hold back her curiosity and doubts, walked straight over, and called Gao Wenxiang's name.
Gao Wenxiang stopped and saw Liu Jingjing calling him. It's really Gao Wenxiang, Liu Jingjing said in surprise.
The last thing Gao Wenxiang wanted was to let Liu Jingjing see him tonight, but since he was seen by Liu Jingjing, he had to reluctantly walk over. He Meina on the side also stepped forward, full of doubts.
"It's really you, Wen Xiang." Liu Jingjing said.
Gao Wenxiang smiled reluctantly: "Yes, I'm here to see the show." ”
Liu Jingjing pointed at He Meina and asked, "Who is this beauty?" ”
Gao Wenxiang was about to speak, but He Meina replied first: "I am her girlfriend, my name is He Meina, and I am the General Affairs Department of our school's student union." ”
Liu Jingjing was immediately surprised when she heard this, so she tried to squeeze out a smile: "Oh, hello, my name is Liu Jingjing, and I am from the Ministry of Literature and Art." ”
Gao Wenxiang felt extremely embarrassed on the side, and the expression on his face was like being a thief.
"You are Liu Jingjing, I often hear Gao Wenxiang mention that you are good friends who have been together since junior high school, and several seniors in the student union often praise you and say that you are versatile." He Meina said, her expression relaxed and comfortable.
"Thank you, you've won the prize." Liu Jingjing squeezed out a smile again.
When Gao Wenxiang and He Meina left, He Meina held Gao Wenxiang intimately and sweetly showed her affection. But Gao Wenxiang was full of awkwardness, he knew that Liu Jingjing was watching them leave.
After Gao Wenxiang and He Meina left, Liu Jingjing's surprise was even heavier than just now. When did Gao Wenxiang find such a girlfriend? Isn't he supposed to be with Meng Ting? Does Meng Ting know about Gao Wenxiang? One doubt after another surged in Liu Jingjing's heart.
After thinking about it for a while, Liu Jingjing decided to tell Meng Ting, although Meng Ting would definitely be sad after hearing it. She dialed Meng Ting's phone, and Meng Ting, as usual, was still reading in the library.
Before receiving Liu Jingjing's call, Meng Ting was in the library reading Khaled Hosseini's "The Kite Runner": I love winter in Kabul. I love the snow gently knocking on my window at night, I love the creaking of fresh snow under my black leather boots, I love feeling the warmth of the iron stove, and I love listening to the cold wind howling through the yard. But more importantly, when the trees were sluggish and the roads were covered by snow and ice, the chill between my dad and me would improve. That's because of kites. Dad and I live under the same roof, but we each live in our own area, and the kite is a paper-thin intersection between us.
This text is both poetic and warm, of course Meng Ting will not let go of this beautiful passage, and will take the pen to copy it. Halfway through the copy, the phone on the table began to vibrate. Meng Ting saw that it was Liu Jingjing calling, and Liu Jingjing asked where Meng Ting was on the phone.
After Meng Ting told Liu Jingjing where she was, Liu Jingjing asked Meng Ting to wait for her in the café below the library.
The café under the library is a multi-purpose student place, which is not only suitable for leisure and entertainment, but also a special place for dates, and people come and go every night. That night, fortunately, Meng Ting and Liu Jingjing found an empty seat.
"Jingjing, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?" Meng Ting asked.
Liu Jingjing's face was solemn, she had just accepted the favor of boys' fans, but she didn't smile, let alone be as happy as before.
"Tingting, there's something I don't know if I should tell you."
Meng Ting didn't feel puzzled, since Gao Wenxiang rejected her, she became calm, and all the unexpected things that were about to happen didn't seem to touch her in the slightest.
"You can just say anything." Meng Ting looked at Liu Jingjing with a smile.
"That's it, that's it, Gao Wenxiang is in love, you know?" Liu Jingjing said the words in a hurry.
Meng Ting looked down at the coffee in the bowl: "I already know about this." ”
"What? You know that! Liu Jingjing said in surprise, "When did you know?" ”
"Jingjing, did you see the two of them?"
"Yes, tonight the school student union will perform, and after the performance is over, I met Gao Wenxiang."
"I'll tell you."
Meng Ting didn't have any reaction, and in the eyes of outsiders, she would even think that she had nothing to do with Gao Wenxiang. This calm and abnormal performance made Liu Jingjing very hurried.
"I said Tingting, why are you so calm, don't you like Gao Wenxiang the most? If I were you, I'd ,,。 ”
"Don't talk about it, Jingjing." Meng Ting suddenly interrupted, "Gao Wenxiang came to me the day after he was with that girl, and he told me in person. I admit that I like Gao Wenxiang very much, but is it useful to just like it? Besides, I don't want to fight someone else for a boyfriend during college. ”
"I really didn't expect Gao Wenxiang to be like this!" Liu Jingjing carried a hint of anger.
"Okay, Jingjing, Gao Wenxiang didn't do anything wrong, he has the right to fall in love with other girls, maybe for him, I don't fit him at all."
Meng Ting's words seem to be bland, but there is incomparable loss and helplessness in the blandness.
Liu Jingjing sneered: "Come on." Tingting, do you know? That girl and I are both from the school's student union, her name is He Meina, and she is the daughter of an official family. You and I both know that Gao Wenxiang is full of desire for success,,,。 ”
"Alright, Jingjing." Meng Ting interrupted Liu Jingjing again, "Let's not talk about him, it's rare to drink coffee here, let's talk about something happy, don't waste this good coffee." ”
Liu Jingjing picked up the coffee angrily and muttered: "Coffee is already bitter, and it is even more uncomfortable to drink it like this." ”
Liu Jingjing is right, coffee is already bitter, and drinking it when you are lost will only feel more bitter. Although Meng Ting tried her best to keep her appearance calm, she had already cried silently in her heart, and it was a heart-piercing pain mixed with the coffee in her mouth. Fortunately, her sister was by her side and accompanied her to drink this bitter coffee. Although he lost his long-term crush Gao Wenxiang, when he was lonely and sad, his good sister was able to appear in time and be angry for himself. Thinking of this, the loneliness in my heart seems to be soothed a lot.
