Chapter 22: Green
The day Wu Yuchao broke up with Lu Ting was the day after Christmas Eve.
On Christmas Eve, Lu Ting happily wrapped an apple and bought a greeting card full of blessings.
However, on her way to the first year of high school, she saw a scene that made her regret her life.
In the pavilion on the side of the road, Wu Yuchao hugged a little girl, and the chicks kissed like rice, and the picture of the two of them flirting and scolding each other burned Lu Ting.
After all, she still didn't come forward to ask for an explanation, not because she didn't want to, but because she didn't dare. She didn't dare to accept this fact, she didn't dare to accept that her insistence all along was just a joke, she didn't dare to face Lao Qu, and she didn't even dare to go back to the classroom.
She didn't go back to the classroom, she skipped class, went to the school infirmary, asked for a bottle of glucose and hung it like that.
When class was approaching, Ruan Jie didn't wait for Lu Ting to come back, she ran into a dead mouse and lied, "Teacher, Lu Ting is not feeling well, she went to the infirmary." ”
The teacher nodded and said, "Well, the temperature has been a little changeable recently, and the temperature difference is relatively large, everyone pay attention to your body and don't catch a cold." ”
Under the podium, there were a few echoes......
Ruan Jie took advantage of the teacher's lack of attention, took out his mobile phone, and sent a text message to Lu Ting.
Where are you? Don't come back just yet, I asked for leave for you, saying you went to the infirmary. 】
Lu Ting didn't reply.
After class, Ruan Jie went to the first (3) class of high school and found Wu Yuchao.
He said, "No, I didn't see—"
Wu Yuchao seemed to think of something, and his voice stopped abruptly.
Ruan was suspicious, "What's wrong?" ”
He shook his head in embarrassment and said, "No, it's nothing. You look somewhere else, she didn't come to me. ”
Ruan Jie originally wanted to say, that's also your girlfriend, don't you look for it with me? But Wu Yuchao's ability to turn around and leave is really strong.
Forget it, the Tao is not the same, the old lady finds it herself.
Maybe it was intuition, or maybe there was no other place to hide in this school, Ruan Jie went straight to the infirmary.
As soon as she entered, she saw Lu Ting sitting on the drip chair, "Are you really sick?" As he spoke, he looked at the drip bottle, "No, this is glucose." ”
"What's the matter, didn't you go to him? How did you get to the infirmary. Ruan Jie squatted on the ground and looked up and asked.
Lu Ting opened her eyes, they were red, and she cried at first glance, "Ruan Jie ...... Woo...... Woo......"
"Did he bully you?"
Lu Ting sobbed and said, "He, he has another girlfriend, woo...... I saw them kissing...... He doesn't want me anymore......"
As Lu Ting spoke, her grievances turned into crying.
From the intermittent time, Ruan Jie probably knew that Lu Ting bumped into the scene of Wu Yuchao's splitting legs, but he didn't dare to question, so he hid in the infirmary to regulate his emotions.
Ruan Jie sat aside and waited for Lu Ting to finish crying, and hurriedly said, "Divide it, it's not worth crying for that brute." ”
That night, Ruan Jie heard Lu Ting talk about her family situation for the first time.
Her parents divorced very early, for an ironic reason - they couldn't give birth to a son. In fact, everyone knows that the decision to have children and daughters is up to the man, but they are unwilling to admit that it is the man's problem. After her parents divorced, Lu Ting followed her father, and the patriarchal grandmother in the family always looked down on her, but she just didn't look down on her, so she didn't abuse her.
When her father was in her first year of junior high school, she remarried, and her stepmother treated her very badly. Later, the stepmother became pregnant, and her temper became more irritable, and she kept directing Lu Ting to work. Lu Ting was young at that time, she didn't dare to resist, and she couldn't resist, and her family wouldn't protect her.
Ironically, the stepmother still gave birth to a daughter. However, this daughter was not disliked, because the stepmother was too strong, and the grandmother was afraid of being soft and afraid of hard, so she didn't dare to accuse her. So, grandma's resentment moved to Lu Ting.
Their family is not without grandchildren, and the uncle's family gave birth to a son, so Lu Ting has felt the differential treatment of the hierarchy since she was a child. For example, if I boiled eggs in the morning and boiled five, if my brother wanted to eat more, Lu Ting couldn't touch them. Many times, as long as my brother wants to eat and likes to eat, Lu Ting can't touch it.
In this way, Lu Ting grew up trembling in a loveless environment. When she met Wu Yuchao, she really thought that he would be her salvation, he was sunny and charming, and he didn't hide his liking for her. He's so good, but he likes her so well.
Ruan Jie can actually understand that a child who lacks love, as long as others show favor to her, even a little bit, it will be infinitely magnified in her heart, and she is willing to give the other party everything she has for that little bit of love.
Lu Ting said: "Do you know, the last time I quarreled with him was because I didn't come out to accompany him on vacation, and he said I didn't care about him. How could I not care, it's just that you know in my family, my grandmother can't accept that I run out as soon as I have a holiday......"
Ruan Jie nodded and comforted, "That's not your fault, he also has a problem." He should know the situation in your family, and since he knows, he should understand you, not push you into the fire pit. ”
Lu Ting also had a little meaning to help him speak, "However, we usually keep our distance, and we can only get along alone on holidays, and if I don't come out to accompany him, he must feel uncomfortable." ”
"It's not your fault! If he really likes you, he won't care about these things, you have a long future ahead of you, don't you? Unless, he didn't think about it later," Ruan Jie hated that iron could not become steel, and thought of something again, and then said, "I definitely didn't think about it in the future, just a scumbag, and before you broke it off, he would hook up with another one." ”
Lu Ting said self-deprecatingly: "...... Am I stupid? ”
Ruan Jie didn't lie, "Yes! Silly girl, the rhetoric will deceive you, let's have a snack, don't be sad, just take it as a lesson. You treat him like a fart and let him go. ”
Lu Ting tried her best to laugh, "Well, it's a fart." ”
"Ruan Jie, I have a question for you."
"Now you're in a bad mood, you're an uncle, just ask. However, we have to go, it's almost ten o'clock, and we'll go back to the dormitory. ”
"Hmm"
The two didn't enter the dormitory, but greeted their roommates and asked them to help cover up when they checked the bed.
Ruan Jie and Lu Ting sat in the flower bed downstairs and chatted for a long time, until the dormitory building was about to lock the door, and the two of them went back.
Because there was too much and too much chatter, I couldn't remember the specific content after many years.
I just remember that it was a cold night, the leaves rustled, and the dim lights on the side of the road flickered on and off. The two of them chatted tremblingly about some things that they didn't have. Lu Ting asked: "Zhao Li is so good to you, why don't you like him?" ”
Ruan Jie smiled, "His love is like 'a person is severely allergic to mangoes, but someone has to let her taste the taste of mangoes, and when she sees that she is allergic, she has to ask first, is it delicious', which is suffocating and depressing." He gave me everything he thought was good, but it was a burden to me. Moreover, there is no law that says that if a person is good to you, you must have a response. If I really want to respond, I can probably have a group of wives and concubines? Ha ha. ”
"Oh, I know," Lu Ting nodded as if she didn't understand, and asked again, "Then what do you like?" ”
Ruan Jiu thought for a moment and replied, "Tree." ”
"Trees?"
"Well, tree, I'm waiting for a tree."
"Why?"
Ruan Jie chuckled lightly and spilled his lips and teeth, and looked at the big tree not far away half-seriously and half-jokingly and said, "Tree, take root downward and grow upward." Keep working hard in the direction of the blue sky. It is tall and straight, with lush branches and leaves, mature and steady. Even if the flowers are beautiful, they will grow on their own. So my him, he won't be ambitious, he'll be down-to-earth and desperately put down roots. There is a saying - deep roots are deep, and solid is fearless. I'm not in a hurry, he may be taking root now, and in a few years, he can shelter me from the wind and rain and give me a sense of security. ”
Lu Ting looked at the light in Ruan Jie's eyes and patted the back of her hand, "You can definitely wait." ”
Ruan Jie smiled lightly, "Of course, you can wait for it." So, forget about scumbags and be an independent woman in the new era! Let the scumbag eat. ”
"Well, let him eat. My love, he doesn't deserve it! ”
"Yes, not deserved!"
……
The end of the long conversation in the cold wind all night was - they had a fever together for the next day, 39°C.
The two helped each other to the infirmary, and the doctor's sister laughed and said, "I was sick yesterday, but today my wish has come true." ”
Ruan Jie said weakly: "Sister, it's unlucky enough, don't make fun of us, thank you, hurry up and prescribe medicine and drip." ”
Lu Ting was quite embarrassed, "Ruan Jie, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have a fever." ”
Ruan Jie waved his hand, "What does it have to do with you, it's all to blame for that piece of." ”
"? …… Oh oh oh, yes, yes, blame that. Lu Ting almost didn't react, Ruan Jie glanced at her, and instantly understood.
After missing a morning class, there were a lot of notes, Ruan Jie looked at these dense words, and he was angry, "Gan, Lu Ting, let me tell you, that scumbag is completely blacklisted in me, don't deal with him in the future, otherwise, I will knock you out on the head." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Jie appeared, and seeing that Lu Ting was about to go out to see him, Ruan Jie hurriedly grabbed her, "You are not allowed to go out!" ”
Lu Ting sneered: "It's okay, let's break up." Besides, he was standing here, and when Lao Qu saw it, he had to scold me again. ”
At the mention of Lao Qu, Lu Ting's face became even more ugly.
Seeing Lu Ting come out, Wu Yuchao smiled flatteringly, he bet that Lu Ting didn't know that he split his legs, "Where did you go yesterday, you didn't come to me on Christmas Eve?" ”
He was responded by a loud big mouth, "Smack!" ”
The noisy voices near Class 12 were instantly quiet, and all eyes were focused on Lu Ting and Wu Yuchao.
Ruan Jie has been paying attention to the two of them, and when he saw this scene, he just said one word - cool!
"You're crazy, sick!" Wu Yuchao covered his face and shouted.
"Break up, don't you all have a new love, why are you still coming to me." Lu Ting said mockingly.
Wu Yuchao was stunned, he didn't expect Lu Ting, who was usually submissive, to be so direct, "...... No, I still like you, it was her who took the initiative yesterday, I didn't want to be with her, you believe me. ”
"Shameless, fuck off. Don't look for me in the future, I'll act like I never knew you. Lu Ting didn't expect him to be so brazen and blame the fault on other girls, he was really blind and blinded by lard at the beginning.
Lu Ting returned to her seat with a fly-like expression, and some people looked at her and talked about it.
Ruan Jie roared impatiently, "Have you seen enough, you're full." Also look! ”
Then, his attitude turned one hundred and eighty degrees, and he gave Lu Ting a thumbs up, "Liubai, this slap is refreshing." By the way, what is he here for? ”
"Summation." Lu Tingyun popped out two words lightly.
"What? Where did the face come from...... You're not soft-hearted. Ruan Jie was surprised by something that changed the tune.
Lu Ting said indifferently: "No, he doesn't have me in his eyes." I've seen the way he likes me, so I'm sure he doesn't like it now. It's just a pity that little girlfriend, I don't know if it will be the next me, heh. ”
"Whatever they do, you just take care of yourself."
"Got it, thank you, Ruan Jie."
The two looked at each other and smiled, Ruan Jie knew that Lu Ting put it down.
I don't know if the Christmas Eve of the second year of high school was toxic, not only did Lu Ting have an accident that night, but there was also a person who fell out of love......
