Chapter 17: The Distance of Love
Since the last time he bumped into Dan Yan and Yao Zhidong walking together in the dormitory building, Shi Kang has not seen Dan Yan for half a month. Although there are many girls around him, it is strange that he only likes Danyan. Shi Kang couldn't help but feel sad, he wanted to stop himself from thinking about her, but he couldn't, he was groggy every day, and he had to get by.
The roof leak happened to rain overnight, and the logistics center has also had accidents one after another these days. A classmate surnamed Tang bought a laptop online, but sent it to the school but was sent the wrong delivery information by a new staff member in the logistics center, because M University has the practice of sending mobile phone cards with the admission notice, the students' mobile phone numbers are different except for the last four digits, and the first 7 digits are all 1398077, and the careless staff mistakenly entered the penultimate "8" of Xiao Tang's mobile phone number into "3", and the person who received the pickup information became another professional Yan. Xiao Yan usually has a lot of couriers, and she often moves couriers to the dormitory in several pieces, and she doesn't notice that she has received someone else's package by mistake.
Maybe Xiao Yan herself is a little greedy for cheap, when she opened the package and found the laptop, she was stunned at first, and then ecstatic. Seeing that her roommates around her were busy with their own things, she didn't notice the anomaly at all, so she pretended that the laptop was sent to her by her mother, in an attempt to embezzle this expensive property.
On the other side, Xiao Tang saw that the Taobao account was about to automatically confirm the receipt, and the logistics tracking information also showed that the package had arrived at the school's logistics center for many days, but he did not receive a text message notifying him to pick up. This notebook was bought by Xiao Tang and spent more than two months on food. In desperation, he had to rush to the logistics center to inquire about the whereabouts of the package, and naturally no staff would know where the package was. The more Xiao Tang communicated, the more angry he became, and he began to wonder if the staff had secretly unpacked the package, and punched the staff in a fit of anger.
As soon as he saw the dispute, Shi Kang rushed over from his seat to persuade him without saying a word. Shi Kang has been the king of children near his home since he was a child, and he can be said to be very good at fighting, when he was in the first grade of elementary school, he beat all the boys in the fourth grade of the school, and when he was in junior high school, his buddies asked him to help fight. But he now understands that he is an adult in his twenties, at least five years older than Xiao Tang, even if he is very aggrieved in his heart, he is stunned and does not fight back before he finds out the facts. Two security guards at the school gate came to take Xiao Tang away, and Shi Kang fortunately covered his head and did not participate in the fight, but the reputation of the school logistics center was still innocently smeared. A week later, several junior boys took the opportunity to take over several of the logistics agents, rented a store at the school gate and called the logistics center, but it closed down after 2 months, at that time Shi Kang found out the truth of the matter and restored the reputation of the logistics center, which is a later story.
As soon as the two security guards took Xiao Tang on the front foot, Shi Kang's fiery temper was about to explode if it rose again! He was not in the mood to go back to his lodgings that night, and according to his instincts, things had happened strangely. All the staff in the logistics center spontaneously stayed with Shi Kang to find the reason, and finally they found the text message that sent the wrong number, and found out Xiao Tang, who received the package by mistake but did not squeak. The big hanging stone in Shi Kang's heart finally fell to the ground, and he immediately took two staff members to find Xiao Tang's dormitory and persuade him to do so. Xiao Tang panicked, and didn't admit it at first, but her roommate inadvertently said that she was reluctant to buy a laptop before, and she played with computers very much these days. And the computer that Xiao Yan didn't get happened to be placed on the table, Shi Kang asked people to dial Xiao Yan's phone, and Xiao Yan took out the Taobao purchase evidence of the notebook, whether it was the brand or model, but Xiao Tang couldn't prove the origin of the notebook. Xiao Yan thanked Shi Kang with a guilty face. A few days later, this incident caused a stir at school, and even some classmates in Danyan's class began to discuss it.
Shi Kang was really tired after dealing with things, and he walked alone around the moonlit campus, trying to find inner peace. He unconsciously walked downstairs to the 11 dormitory buildings, and Danyan's face appeared in his eyes again. Shi Kang was like sleepwalking, his footsteps followed his heart, and in a trance, he had stopped at the door of Danyan dormitory 11#206. He was so excited that he left a note on the 206 door: "It must be because you like to do it, and my surname is wet (stone)". Then Shi Kang staggered and was about to float away. It was about telepathy, and the door of SCP-206 suddenly opened, and a beam of light was cast on the dimly lit hallway. Dan Yan walked out of the door with the kettle, and saw the note on the door at a glance, and immediately blushed, Shi Kang stood not far away and looked at Dan Yan with affection, and the love that could not be hidden quietly overflowed from the bottom of Shi Kang's heart and spread to Dan Yan's eyes.
Luo Yao saw that Dan Yan had been standing at the door stupidly, came over to find out, and saw the two of them with eyebrows in love, and she understood at once. Because of Yao Zhidong, Luo Yao has always been ashamed of Danyan in her heart, but she can't solve it. A Shi Kang appeared at this time, and Luo Yao was happy for Dan Yan in her heart. Luo Yao greeted Shi Kang with a smile, "This handsome guy has been here a few times, we all know it, come in and sit down, you have to come often in the future, even if Danyan wants to hide from you, we will confess her." Shi Kang was flattered and said, "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." Luo Yao snatched the kettle in Danyan's hand and went downstairs to fetch water.
Lan Yu and Mengshi came over enthusiastically, and you and I chatted with Shi Kang word by word. The careful Mengshi caught a glimpse of the bruise on Shi Kang's arm, and gave Lan Eucalyptus a look, and Lan Eucalyptus took out the medicine box and turned out a bottle of bruising medicine. Meng Shi's eyes rolled, "Dan Yan, you give him medicine, Lan Yu and I are going to go downstairs for a walk." Lan Eucalyptus questioned in a childish voice, "Isn't it okay to stay in the dormitory like this?" Mengshi put on an adult posture, "Children don't care about uncles and aunts", and slammed the door shut. Dan Yan's shy face turned from red to purple, "You guys...... What a good roommate in China! ”
Shi Kang smiled with teeth on his face, "The people in your dormitory are really funny!" Give me the medicine quickly, I should go back after the medicine, or are you planning to wait here all night? Dan Yan rolled his eyes, "Phew", he didn't pay attention to his hand, and accidentally poked Shi Kang with a cotton swab. Shi Kang looked frightened, "Can you be gentle?" I really didn't expect you to be such a person! Dan Yan said proudly, "It's too late to regret it now." Shi Kang smiled evilly, "What are we?" Is it flirting? Dan Yan was embarrassed to squeak, the feelings in his heart began to take root, and the distance between the two hearts was slowly approaching, which was also an unexpected gain for Shi Kang.
The next day is Tuesday, and every Tuesday afternoon M University is closed for the whole school. It happened that the paper and paint stored in the dormitory were used up, which made the store manager Mengshi anxious, "There have been a lot of orders in the online store recently, but I can't delay the production, Lan Eucalyptus, I will transfer the funds in the store to you, you go to the street to buy it when there is no class in the afternoon, I may not be able to go, the production management department has to hold a meeting." Ruoping was sorting out her books in the library in the afternoon, and she didn't have time to go. The painting material is very heavy, and you will definitely not be able to handle it alone...... In this way, I asked Zhenping to accompany you to buy, he picked up the things, and you paid. ”
It doesn't seem like a chore, and you can go out shopping by the way. On Jinta Street, the closest to the school, there is an old painting material shop of more than 100 square meters, which has everything from drawing paper, oil pastels, brushes, paints, etc. It is said that the owner of this shop is very familiar with the painting material factory, and the same model is cheaper than the one sold outside, so word of mouth spreads in M, and almost all art students buy painting tools here all year round. Eucalyptus is no exception, and I came here 4 or 5 times last semester to buy it. The clerk recognized her at a glance, "Little girl, what are you going to buy today?" Lan Eucalyptus was a little surprised, "Do you remember me?" What a memory! Help me get 20 packs of watercolor paper and 2 sets of 24 colors of paint. I often buy from you, give me a cheaper! The clerk smiled, "No problem, you're a regular customer." I'll give you an 8.5% discount. Lan Eucalyptus nodded, "Thank you!" You're really good at business! ”
Lan Yu watched the clerk skillfully pack the painting materials, and shook his hand when he took it, "Oh my God, this painting paper is so heavy!" I'm about to break my hand! Zhenping, who was standing next to him without saying a word, hurriedly stepped forward and carried the extra-large plastic bag in his hand. Out of the store, Lan Yu originally wanted to return to school the same way as she was, but Zhenping stopped her from speaking in the opposite direction, "I finally have time to come out, don't you go shopping?" ”
couldn't wait for Lan Yu to answer, Zhenping walked forward with two long legs, walked a few steps and looked back at her with a wicked smile. Helplessly, Lan Eucalyptus's pair of small short legs were so slow that she didn't obey the call, and in order not to be ridiculed by Zhenping, she had to gasp for breath and try to catch up. God knows how Zhenping can still walk so fast with such a heavy thing?! A cartoon flashed through Lan Eucalyptus's brain, showing a gorgeously dressed lady leading a petite pet dog, and the pet dog had to walk several steps when the lady walked one step, which was really embarrassing......
Suddenly, Zhenping stopped not far away, "Blue Eucalyptus, there is a KFC in front, I'm going to buy two cones, do you want to eat anything?" Two stars popped out of the blue eucalyptus' clear eyes, "Eat ice cream...... Well, it's better not to be good, I'm going to lose weight, get me a mashed potato. Lan Yu didn't expect that the first time she had a solo party with Zhenping was in the naïve KFC. It was a Tuesday afternoon, and there were only three tables of customers in the huge dining room, two of which were housewives who took the children out to play, and the other table was a mess of several papers, and two salesmen were spitting and arguing. Zhenping went to the front desk to order, and Lan Yu picked a table by the window alone.
Lan Eucalyptus suddenly remembered that the first dish she learned to cook when she was a child was vinegared shredded potatoes. At that time, she was not a good cook, and she fried potatoes at every turn. Now, he loves ice cream, and she loves mashed potatoes alone. The fried and charred skin is the scar of the potato......
Out of KFC, the two walked side by side on Quinta Street. Shangguan Zhenping coldly took Lan Eucalyptus's little hand, maybe he was worried that Lan Eucalyptus would be scattered by the crowd, or he just thought of her as his sister Ruoping, the moment his fingertips touched, Lan Eucalyptus blushed. It happened that the song sung by BY2 came from the clothing store passing by, which was a familiar melody of Lan Eucalyptus, "I think I'm still not mature enough to meet your requirements." I don't really think too much about it, I just miss you after you're gone. Is it really a relief to leave? Is it really necessary to understand it after the matter has passed......" Lan Yu was only immersed in the sweetness of youth at that time, and did not realize that this song had already predicted the future of the two people. For some people, it feels very close, but in fact it is far away.
At the end of the market is a mid-levels park. Blue Eucalyptus looked curiously towards the entrance of the park, and passers-by looked at Zhenping and Blue Eucalyptus with ambiguous eyes, as if they were not good friends but lovers, which made Blue Eucalyptus very unaccustomed. There are two rows of tall wisteria trees planted in the mezzanine, and the young green buds sprout on the tangled dead branches, and the early-maturing wisteria flowers are so small that they are dotted on the equally slender branches, and are suspended in the air by hair-thin whiskers, as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind at any time......
Eucalyptus blue used to hear that wisteria is a vine that likes to wrap around trees, and once it leaves the tree, the vine will not survive like a fish out of water. Such a deep attachment is like the dependence and concern between lovers. How much the blue eucalyptus hopes that the wisteria flowers can bloom vigorously, spread into a large bright purple waterfall, and the strings of heavy flowers are densely hung down, it is completely brilliant, and it is dazzling and brilliant, although the beautiful and vigorous flowers will soon wither, there will be no regrets.
Thinking like this, Lan Eucalyptus's deep eyes revealed a bottomless sadness, and Zhenping next to him was also a little melancholy. Zhenping put a large bag of painting materials flat on the ground, bent his knees and looked at her, "Little princess Lan Eucalyptus, what are you so sad about?" Lan Yu couldn't help laughing, "Who is the princess?" What are you talking nonsense? The blue eucalyptus pretended to be angry and ran to the depths of the mid-level park, passing through a stone staircase of nearly 100 steps, the blue eucalyptus was light and the skirt was fluttering. Zhenping was carrying a heavy big bag in his hand, "Miss, can you not run so fast?" Stop! Lan Eucalyptus shouted proudly in front of him, "I won't stop!" Unless you guess correctly why I was sad just now! ”
Lan Yu continued to run forward unreasonably, Zhenping ran straight panting, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "I guess...... I guess you're in love with the scene because ......of the wisteria flower," Lan Eucalyptus coldly guessed the right answer, and turned her head in shock, "You—how do you know?" Zhenping stopped and looked at her seriously: "Blue eucalyptus, we are the same kind of people." ”
The wind blows on the face, moist as crisp, slightly shining stars.
