The next morning, Yang Chen still came to deliver milk as usual. Only this time, the person who came downstairs to get it was not Liang Lei, but Zhou Yuan.

"Thank you! Running so hard, are you tired? If you want to take a break, I'll sit with you. ”

“…… No need, Liang Lei, she ......"

"She's still in the bathroom and it's not easy to get down, so let me get it for her."

"Oh, that's it. Then she yesterday, it seems to be ......"

"Yesterday? Oh, you don't know her yet, the 'old problem' is back in place, we have an anatomy class, and she's half-dead again. It's like she's dissected, so it's naturally in a bad mood, don't care, she's that character, you know. Hahaha......"

"Then she's ...... now"

"She's fine. By the way, have you had breakfast? Why don't you have breakfast together? ”

"No, no, no, no, I've eaten and eaten."

"Oh, that's right. Okay, tomorrow morning, you come here for breakfast, there is a xiaolongbao behind our school, it tastes good, I invite you to breakfast! ”

“…… Thank you, I'll go back first. This milk, please help me transfer it to her, thank you! ”

Although it was not an escape, Yang Chen felt that he must be suspected of 'falling into the wilderness'. Zhou Yuan, a chubby girl, although he is not very familiar with it, he also knows it, she is not very beautiful in his eyes, and her personality is relatively straight. Especially in the concert two days ago, she was the one who should have sat in Liang Lei's position. admitted that when he saw Zhou Yuan, he was disappointed, angry, and depressed, but later Liang Lei explained this matter to him, and it passed.

Although I don't know why, I can understand that this time it shouldn't be simple, Liang Lei didn't even get the milk, and so far, he hasn't answered his phone or replied to the message, why should he avoid himself, is this a cold war? But why do you want to have a cold war with yourself? Sneering at yourself in your heart, cold war? What is she in her heart? Do you need to spend any effort to engage in a cold war with yourself? I can't help but wonder more and more, what is going on?

After more than half a month like this, except for occasional phone calls and messages, the two have never met again. Liang Lei would always push down Yang Chen's appointment for various reasons, and in the blink of an eye, Yang Chen's doubts had turned into quiet anger and hopelessness in his heart. During this time, Zhou Yuan seemed to have become a connection between the two, and a lot of information about Liang Lei could only be inquired about more clearly from Zhou Yuan's side.

And Yang Chen is not stupid, in the past half a month, Zhou Yuan has frequently shown favor to him, so he naturally understands what she wants to do. It's just that after all, the other party is a girl, and she is still Liang Lei's roommate, she doesn't find out, and she can only pretend to be stupid. While wanting to know Liang Lei's recent situation, and on the other hand, he had to deal with Zhou Yuan's closeness to him, and the two occasionally got along, but they also 'had their own ghosts', which gave Yang Chen a headache.

It has been a few days since the May Day long period ended.

This day is Yang Chen's birthday. In fact, I don't remember when my last birthday was, and I don't care about it anymore. But today, he wants to celebrate his birthday, and he wants to use the reason for his birthday to try to see if he can ask Liang Lei out. After much struggling, I still called her.

"Hey~~" The phone is still lazy, and I can't hear joy and sorrow.

"Liang Lei, today is the weekend, let's come out for dinner in the evening, in our 'secret base', I have prepared a lot of delicious food."

“…… No, I have to read a book at night. ”

"Today...... It's my birthday, can you spend it with me? ”

Liang Lei's hand groping on the book suddenly stopped. His birthday? "Who else? Are your roommates or classmates together? ”

"No, I just want to burn it for you."

“……”

"You know, I'm not very good at making friends, and I really can't find anyone around me to celebrate my birthday all of a sudden, so ...... Do you want to come? Here, the boy held the phone in one hand and said cautiously, while holding the railing with one hand, the bones were distinct.

I don't know why, Liang Lei's eyes shook the scene of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the yard, the old tables, chairs and blackboards in the yard, and the portrait of his grandmother, the loneliness that was infected by him suddenly surged up at that moment, and I don't know when, the corner of the book was pinched out.

"Liang Lei? You...... Is it still there? ”

"In. What time is it in the evening? ”

"Six o'clock, I'll cook and wait for you!"

"Good...... Happy birthday. ”

In fact, I haven't seen her for more than half a month, and Liang Lei's heart is often empty. But she didn't like this kind of concern, and even thought it would be a little scary, there were too many boys chasing her, and there were even more long queues of men who showed favor to her and wanted to be good to her.

Yang Chen is not special, she firmly believes. He was just more persistent, and that insistence was two years. He's just smarter, knowing to keep just the right distance from her, warm and not entangled. That's why she unconsciously only got a little closer to him, compared with those boys who pursued her fiercely, with Yang Chen, he could give more freedom and ease. He just liked it better than the other boys, and she preferred the bowl of seafood noodles cooked by herself to the elegant prawns that his elegant, unstained hands peeled for himself than the expensive or worthless flowers, chocolates, and all kinds of cheesy gifts that the boys often gave......

At six o'clock in the evening, Liang Lei showed up on time at their 'secret base' with a birthday present for him.

The moment he opened the door, Yang Chen was in a trance again. Seeing her wearing a light blue dress and a snow-white knitted shawl on the outside, it was just simple clothes, but it looked particularly quiet in her beautiful figure. Her long hair was draped like satin behind her back, and she was slightly scattered around her face because she was walking. Tonight, she should have put on light makeup, and on her already creamy cheeks, her pink lips were revealed: "Happy birthday!" ”

Yang Chen swallowed his saliva, turned around and lowered his head to let her in, and also covered up his unconscious heartbeat and the unnaturalness on his face.

"Thanks, you can sit down for a while, and you'll be fine right away."

"Hmm." As usual, put the gift bag on the side of the table and look down to smell the food. Alas! Not to mention the taste, this image is much better than the one in the cafeteria.

The two sat down opposite each other, they didn't see each other for half a month, but they didn't feel uncomfortable for a while, Liang Lei still tilted her head and said 'thank you', and then started moving. There's no way, the whole table is obviously cooked according to your own taste, and I haven't tasted it for so long, so it's really all on the chopsticks......

watched her eat with relish, and a vague exclamation or two came out of her nose like a little milk dog from time to time. My heart was half crisp, and all the tension and unhappiness before disappeared in an instant.

While helping her peel the prawns, she casually asked, "Recently, are you okay?" ”

“…… It's good, it's time to prepare for the final exam, and I'm busy. ”

"......" final exam? There is still a month to come, and it seems that the course tension of the University of Chinese Medicine is indeed worthy of its reputation. "Then don't work too hard."

"No, it's just an exam." This is not arrogant, as long as she doesn't do it and doesn't see blood, she is not afraid.

"That Zhou Yuan...... in your bedroom" asked tentatively, and sure enough, Liang Lei stopped chewing in her mouth, but didn't look at him. Do you have a good relationship? ”

"It's okay, roommate. What's wrong? Still keeping his head down, he continued to chew.

"You've been so busy lately, I can only ask her about you."

"You and she must have been seeing each other quite a lot lately."

"Well, I can't find you, I can only find her."

“…… Oh. ”

"Every time I see her, it's you who asks and talks about you......" He paused deliberately, wanting to see her expression, but she still kept her head down. I'm a little upset, so thank you for bringing me a cake for her. ”

In the first half of the sentence, Liang Lei was useful, and she knew that Yang Chen would not look at Zhou Yuan, and even if she let it again, they would not come together. Even when those two people are alone with each other, they will be an inevitable topic of conversation among them. But the second half of the sentence made Liang Lei's eyebrows immediately raised. What the? He asked her to bring a cake to another girl?!

What the hell is this! Since she was a child, only others gave her gifts, or asked someone to give her gifts, Zhang Xiao and Jiang Yinuo did not do this work less, and they did not take any benefits from it, why is there a boy today, please ask her to send something to another girl? Suddenly, this indescribable self-esteem came up, and she seemed to hear the 'pop' sound of slapping her face, which made her very uncomfortable.

Stared at Yang Chen for a long time and didn't figure out what to do, and he was stunned and stuck in place.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her 'whoosh' look up at herself with wide eyes, her intricate expression.

“…… You, you, you, you want to give her a cake, you go yourself, I won't take it! ”

"Okay, I'll give it to her myself."

"......" Liang Lei.

"Thank her, for letting me know how you're doing when I can't find you."

"Thank her?!" When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. "Then go and thank her."
