Pan Rui followed Xia Zhi into the canteen, and when ordering food, Pan Rui took the initiative to hand over the meal card, and Xia Zhi did not refuse.

Generally speaking, they are dating, and the summer solstice rarely makes Pan Rui bear all the expenses, everyone is a student, living on the meager living expenses of the family and the income of a part-time tutor, she doesn't want Pan Rui to feel that falling in love with her will bring too much burden.

Eating in the canteen is to play their own way, occasionally go out for a shopping street, there are more food stalls and cheap and high-quality tea restaurants on the roadside, anyway, how she lived when she was alone, and how she lived when she was with Pan Rui.

When eating out, she will not insist on the AA system, but she will take turns with Pan Rui to pay the bills. Usually give each other a gift during the holidays, which is a small gift such as a hairpin and a guitar pick, and the two also feel content.

But if it's when she's angry, that's a different story. Xia Zhi thought to himself, it doesn't matter if he drinks porridge or eats steamed buns at the end of the month.

The two of them each held a stainless steel rice plate, and also helped Xiao Yiqing fill it, so they found an empty seat and sat down.

The tables and chairs are one-piece, with two plastic benches on each side of the four legs, and an I-shaped iron frame on the bench supports the rectangular table above.

They sat facing each other, and it was the height of the dining room, and soon two girls came to the table and chairs on the other half. The tables and chairs in the dining hall are almost full, and those who come late can only walk around with their food trays in their hands, or wait in line next to those who are almost finished.

The cafeteria was filled with human voices, whispers and shouts, and the sound of collisions as the food plates were collected after eating, and it was really not a good place to chat.

The two talked a few words, nothing more than talking about the saltiness of the food, discussing why there are so many people on May Day, and they didn't talk about finding a job.

After eating and going out, Pan Rui hooked Xia Zhi's finger and said, "Let's go back after a while." ”

Xia Zhi raised Xiao Yiqing's lunch box: "Xiao Yiqing hasn't eaten yet." ”

"Just for a moment."

"Okay." Who allows himself to eat other people's soft mouths, and the canteen also asks for money.

In order to show that he hadn't completely forgiven him, Xia Zhi deliberately kept a distance of half a body from him, and Pan Rui was not reluctant, pursed his mouth and smiled, and looked at her sideways as he walked.

It wasn't until he walked to the quiet and deserted small bamboo forest behind the library that Pan Rui leaned over and put it on her shoulder.

He said, "Are you okay today?" ”

Xia Zhi shook his head: "The teacher who recruits Chinese thinks that I am not the right person enough, and the teacher who recruits me sees that I have been engaged in literature for four years in college, and thinks that I am not doing my job." I may not really be able to find a job anymore. ”

If she had to hide it in front of Pan Rui, she really didn't know who else to trust.

"It's okay, it's not two months. Bread will be. ”

What about love? Xia Zhi almost asked, but she just asked, "What about you?" Did you go well in the exam? ”

"I don't know...... It's not my paper. ”

"You always know if you can answer the questions."

"It should be fine...... But I don't know how others are doing. If you're not afraid that I will, others will, and if I'm afraid that I won't, others will. "Pan Rui has been preparing for a long time, and he has also taken the national examination before, but unfortunately he failed to make the list.

Xia Zhi snorted: "As far as your broken Tai City, how many people go to the test." ”

"What do you think? The competition is fierce, too. The ratio was 95:1, and I had to be in the top three to have an interview. ”

"Then you still sharpen your head to squeeze? Deserve. ”

Pan Rui was a little anxious: "Don't say it, my parents asked me to go back to take the test." ”

"My parents also asked me to go back to the interview to become a teacher. You're a good boy. Xia Zhi knew that if she continued to say this, the two might break up unhappily again, but Pan Rui moved out of her parents as a shield, which made her feel indignant.

This time, Pan Rui didn't hold her sarcastic counterattack, but said, "Actually, I think you should also go back and have a look." ”

Xia Zhi stopped with a sharp step, turned to face him, and he didn't leave. Xia Zhi said: "Okay, then I'll go back tomorrow, I'll go back to my house, you go back to your house, let's find our own mother, and we won't get along with each other." ”

"How do you say that?" Pan Rui reached out to pull her arm, she dodged to prevent him from touching her, he looked around blankly, found the seat on the side of the path in his memory, pointed and said, "Let's sit and talk." ”

She sat down with a belly of fire at her feet, and he sat down on the left side of the chair, and she leaned on the right armrest, and he moved toward her, and she got up, and sat down on the left side that he had vacated.

He had no choice but to say through the air: "I think we should all seize any opportunity first and settle the work first." Graduation is equivalent to unemployment, and we can't still rely on the family to support it, and when we save some money in our hands, we will find a way.

"Nanzhou is not far from Taicheng, just 150 kilometers, even if you go back to Kangzhou, it is 300 kilometers apart. Anyway, whether it's Nanzhou or Kangzhou, where you are, home is there. I can run. ”

Xia Zhi's frozen heart warmed up little by little, she didn't know how long Pan Rui had been thinking about it before saying it, they were always entangled in the matter that the two might be separated after graduation, but they never thought about the matter of settling down.

He put this matter on the table, which is equivalent to announcing that the relationship between the two has taken a big step forward.

Has she considered starting a family? Honestly, not really. She wants to go down with Pan Rui, but, starting a family? She thought it was a long way off. To her own surprise, she didn't find his words abrupt.

She straightened her feet, her heels touched the ground, and her toes hooked hard, and the street lamp suddenly turned on at this time, illuminating her toes that had been caught in high heels for a day.

She was racing in her heart, how could she say that she was reserved and not let him feel that she was rejecting him?

After squirming for a long time, Xia Zhi said, "You can look at it." ”

Pan Rui approached her unconsciously: "I've thought about it, I will continue to look for a job in Nanzhou, I will go to submit my resume tomorrow, I won't let you fight alone." ”

His last words were whispered in her ear, and his exhalation tickled her ears, and she did not dare to turn her head to look at him, lest she see his obsessive gaze up close.

"That ......" he habitually grabbed the bangs that had hung down on his forehead and were now cut short, "Xia Zhi, I don't want to say those three words, I think it's embarrassing." ”

"Who told you to say it, shameless!" She pinched her lips between her teeth and bit them, trying to hold back the smile that had already bloomed.

"I ...... May I? ”

"What can I do?" As soon as she asked, she knew what he was saying.

He gasped for breath like a low-gear hair dryer burning her face, her heart was beating so fast that she felt that her heart would burst through her not thick chest at any moment and fall out, and she couldn't help but close her eyes.

With her acquiescence, he reached out and pulled her to his chest, the two pieces of warmth pressed against her tense lips.
