Chapter 15 Before Winter Break

At the beginning of the lanterns, the earth is clothed in a thin and cool dress, and the night is not sunset.

Dan Yan finally finished the last order of the day, and rolled his hands in his sleeve cage and waited for the canteen uncle to give him a working meal, and his mouth kept snorting hot air. It's so cold! There are only a few students left in the East Side cafeteria who buy supper, and the owners of several snack bars are preparing to close one after another after cleaning up their shops. These days, the opening hours of most of the canteens have been extended, because the end of the year is approaching, and some store owners can't care about making money, so they go back to their hometowns for the New Year in advance, and the few stores that are still sticking to their posts have slightly more business.

Danyan worked hard part-time for most of the semester, not only had a lot more money, but also saved a small amount of savings, she used the money to buy some gifts for her family, her father's down coat, her mother's knitted scarf, and her brother's black leather shoes. Dan Yan couldn't wait to send these surprises to his home as soon as possible, and there happened to be a bag of bulky luggage that he couldn't take on the train, so he was ready to send a piece of express back before the holiday. She was busy with classes and part-time jobs during the day, and she couldn't get out of her body at all, so she could only go back to the dormitory after dinner with a tired body to pick up the luggage to be sent. She rushed to the door of the dormitory in a hurry, only to find that when she brought Luo Yao to deliver food in the evening, she didn't bring the key out, so she had to knock on the door with her cold red hand.

Luo Yao had just recovered from a serious illness, and she had been taking leave to study her homework in the dormitory these days, and when she heard a knock on the door, she hurriedly came down and opened the door. After Dan Yan entered the house, he saw the shiny floor, and couldn't help complaining: "Luo Yao~ Why are you doing sanitation alone?" Didn't I tell you to rest more? Luo Yao looked disappreciative: "I'm idle in the dormitory, I'm tired of reading and reading, I do hygiene by the way, the three of you are very busy, if I don't take care of you during this time, I can't even see a doctor, what is such a trivial matter as mopping the floor?" By the way, you can go to the courier station and pick up a package for me by the way! There is a tracking number that has been delivered for many days without notifying me to receive it. Dan Yan said without hesitation: "Leave this little thing to me!" ”

The school logistics center at night is the busiest time of the day. Shi Kang, the new person in charge here, just took over the management of this express site 4 days ago, and he is still unfamiliar with the search for packages, and the students who come to pick up the parcels are accumulating more and more in the hall of the logistics center, but most of them are not impatient, and there are even 5 or 6 little girls in the queue who are looking at Shi Kang while whispering with their companions with a expression.

Shi Kang is 1.78 meters tall, with long bangs obliquely parted to one side to cover his angular right eye, but in the cold weather, he rolled his sleeves up to his arms, revealing the bronze strong muscles on his arms. Perhaps it was too much physical effort to carry large luggage, and there were beads of sweat on his arms and forehead. In this way, he looks more handsome in the eyes of the girls, and some girls also take the opportunity to pick up the parcel and talk to Shi Kang slowly. And Dan Yan was tired to death after a busy day, and she couldn't wait to finish sending the courier early and take Luo Yao's package back to the dormitory to wash and sleep, she looked at the long queue moving forward like a snail, and sighed heavily.

Although Shi Kang was surrounded by the "flowers", he was completely unmoved, with a dull expression that he was used to being chased, and he answered every student who came to ask, perhaps because he had just taken over the work here and did not have the slightest impatience in dealing with things. Ten minutes later, just when Dan Yan thought that her patience had reached the limit, it was finally her turn.

Shi Kang smiled handsomely and sunnyly: "Classmate, do you want to pick up or send the mail?" Dan Yan carried a large bag of luggage to the workbench: "This package has to be sent, and I have to help my roommate get a courier." Shi Kang took out a mailing slip from the drawer, "The mailing information will be filled in on this list later, please report your roommate's name and mobile phone number first." Dan Yan took out his mobile phone from his pocket and quickly rummaged through Luo Yao's mobile phone number: "Luo Yao...... Well...... 137********。 Shi Kang lowered his head and entered Luo Yao's pickup information into the desktop computer running the speed giant truck, "There is no record!" Dan Yan was taken aback: "How come?" She said that the package had been delivered for a long time and that no one had informed her to pick it up. Shi Kangnong frowned slightly, "You ask her to report the courier number to check." ”

"It can't be a lost item, right?" Dan Yan muttered depressedly and dialed Luo Yao's mobile phone number, because she was very slow to send text messages, almost only calling. Luo Yao's phone was finally connected, and the logistics center at this end was full of people, Dan Yan had no choice but to raise his voice by a few decibels, and Luo Yao found the courier number from the backpack hanging on the wardrobe door on the other end of the phone. Dan Yan handed the phone to Shi Kang to answer, Luo Yao reported the express waybill number, and asked anxiously: "It has been many days and it hasn't been delivered, can you find it?" Shi Kang replied unhurriedly: "Don't worry, you should be able to find it, I'll help you check it again, even if you can't find the courier company, you will be compensated." Luo Yao hung up the phone with peace of mind after hearing this, and Shi Kang handed the phone back to Dan Yan. turned his head and looked for Luo Yao's packages one by one on the rows of shelves, and finally found Luo Yao's express mail under the large package in a corner.

Shi Kang patted the dust on the package, "Hey, who wrote Luo Yao's mobile phone number wrongly, no wonder it wasn't sent to her mobile phone, and it can't be found in the system." Dan Yan let out a long sigh of relief and continued to fill in the shipping address. Shi Kang checked and weighed Danyan's luggage one by one on the side, and then took a large express box and put these things neatly into it. "Do you want to pay the postage on demand or in cash?" Shi Kang poked his head out from the workbench. "Pay as you go. How much? Dan Yan began to pull out the thick stack of change in his pocket. $20...... Ho! Why do you have so much change? It's the first time I've seen a girl go out with such a lot of change. Dan Yan smiled awkwardly: "I'm in the food delivery business in the canteen, otherwise I can't make change." If you need to order food, you can find me, the fast food on the second floor of the canteen is very good! The honest Danyan did not forget to advertise his part-time job.

The corners of Shi Kang's mouth smiled evilly, thinking that this girl is interesting, usually the girls around him are at every turn, but Dan Yan just looks like he is not open, but it aroused Shi Kang's curiosity to take the initiative to understand Dan Yan. "The second floor of the cafeteria, okay!" Shi Kang nodded thoughtfully.

And the careless Dan Yan didn't notice the subtle change in Shi Kang's expression, she hugged Luo Yao's package and plunged into the cold wind outside the house. In such a freezing weather, there are really few students walking on the school road, and at a glance, there are only thin backs rushing in the direction of the dormitory area. A biting cold wind blew, and Dan Yan, who was only wearing 3 thin shirts, couldn't bear it, so he had to cover his empty neck with his hands, and his teeth chattered from the cold. Poor Dan Yan shivered while moving against the wind, and when he raised his eyes and looked ahead, the two girls, one tall and one short, were also so cold that they jumped and jumped. The tall girl only wore a white windbreaker and kept rubbing her hands, and the short little girl in the red coat deliberately put her hand in her pocket and said that the clothes were very warm, so angry that the girl in the white windbreaker next to her grabbed the hat of the girl in red, and showed off that the hat was used as a hand warmer for her, and it didn't matter if it was dirty.

Dan Yan was a little familiar with the sound of the fight behind them, and then looked at it, hey, aren't the two in front of them Lan Eucalyptus and Mengshi? This world is too small, and so many people can meet their roommates on the road. Dan Yan coughed intentionally twice, Lan Yu and Mengshi turned their heads together, and laughed and scolded in unison: "Where are you following us?" Lan Eucalyptus rushed over and grabbed Dan Yan, "How long have you been walking behind us, why didn't you call us?" Ah...... You're wearing too thin today, thinner than Mengshi, let's go back quickly, lest you two catch a cold. ”

Dan Yan held the blue eucalyptus in his left hand and Mengshi in his right hand, and the three girls walked side by side while chatting, the wind was blowing in their ears, but it was more like a chord played by an orchestra. Dan Yan asked curiously, "Why did you come back at this time?" Mengshi immediately smiled, "It's Zisong who comes to school, he has a birthday next weekend, and Lan Eucalyptus is also going, you and Luo Yao are also here, right?" Dan Yan pondered for a long time, "I want to go with you to be lively, but there are a lot of orders for food delivery on weekends, especially in the evening, most of the students will order supper, and they can't get out of it at all...... Anyway, Zisong's birthday wishes will help me bring them! Mengshi nodded with some regret.

The end of the semester is getting closer and closer, since Shi Kang met Dan Yan, he has been ordering food at Dan Yan every noon and night, because Shi Kang wants to see Dan Yan often, even if he doesn't chat and meet. And Dan Yan can detect Shi Kang's feelings even if she is not sensitive, but she is a little puzzled, what does a boy like Shi Kang who has no shortage of girls fall in love with herself? After a few days of frequent meetings, one starry night, Shi Kang asked Dan Yan to meet at the door of the supermarket next to the canteen. Dan Yan didn't know how to deal with it all of a sudden, so he had to bite the bullet.

The cigarette butt was lit up in a corner at the entrance of the supermarket, and Dan Yan walked mechanically on the open-air corridor at the entrance of the supermarket, and from a distance, he caught a glimpse of the guy who smoked in a handsome and cold posture, and it was Shi Kang who had asked her out before he had known her for a long time. Shi Kang looked up and saw Dan Yan walking slowly towards him, bent down and snuffed out the cigarette butt on the garbage can on the side of the road, his dimples were slightly exposed, and his eyes were clear.

Shi Kang gestured, turned his head and entered the supermarket, stopping from time to time to wait for her. Dan Yan timidly followed behind the tall Shi Kang, keeping a distance from afar, and the two walked into the supermarket one after the other. Shi Kang was silent, went straight to the snack counter, and took two Snickers racks to the cashier to settle the bill. He handed one to Danyan, tilted his head and tore open the package of another Snickers with his mouth, and ate it quietly.

Dan Yan was confused, "You called me out to invite me to eat Snickers?!" Shi Kang was angry and funny, "Yes! It's not all ......" The dimples on Shi Kang's face became more drunk, "You are a food delivery, I am a courier, I think we are a good match." Dan Yan opened his mouth wide in surprise, this is the first time Dan Yan has been confessed in his life! The hand of the receiver trembled slightly, Dan Yan's eyes wandered, his heart was flustered, and his cheeks were dyed crimson by palpitations. Snickers' disobedient "snap" fell to the ground, Dan Yan turned his head shyly and ran, running all the way back to the dormitory, like a deer crashing.

The dormitory was darkly lit, and Dan Yan only felt that her brain was chaotic, and such a dark environment could calm her thoughts. Luo Yao asked coldly, "Why don't you turn on the lights?" Dan Yan was startled by this sudden sound, and was stunned for a long time, and then pressed the switch of the electric light. Luo Yao yawned and got up from the quilt, "What are you running on a cold day?" I've never seen you panting so hard! It's not that you don't know that I can't go to Mengshi's boyfriend's birthday party when I'm sick, so I'm naturally resting in the dormitory. How could you be scared like this? It took Dan Yan a long time to come back to his senses, "Yes, I'm almost confused, and today is the weekend." Zhang Zisong is celebrating his birthday today. ”

The location of the birthday dinner was chosen at the food stall at the entrance of Zisong School, and most of the roommates and classmates invited were from Zisong School. In addition to Mengshi and Zisong, the people at the table only know the president of the health management association, and Mengshi has met Zisong when he first met him, and he is not very familiar, and he has to eat vegetables after the greetings of Lan Eucalyptus.

A boy in sportswear with a flat head stood up and saluted Zisong with a glass of wine, and patted him on the shoulder, "You kid will be considered developed in the future!" You're the only one in our class who got a Ph.D.! After a few months, I have to worry about finding a job, and I feel that the two years of graduate students have passed too quickly, and I have been in the greenhouse of the school for a long time, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy to adapt to society! After hearing this, Zisong shook his fist and hammered the boy's shoulder to cheer him up, "Brother! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. This sentence made the blood boil of several boys present, and they all got up and toasted in a circle.

After three rounds of drinking, Mengshi held the birthday cake and put it in the middle of the table, and then lit the candle with a lighter very intimately, and looked at Zisong affectionately with a pair of watery eyes: "Make a wish!" A whole table of people sang birthday songs happily, and some people coaxed Zisong and Mengshi to kiss, Zisong got up with a red face after cutting the cake, and went to the front desk of the restaurant to pay under the pretext of going to the front desk. Lan Yu heard a boy next to him whispering to his classmates: "Such a person who doesn't understand romance has really picked up a treasure!" His girlfriend is beautiful and temperamental, and she also knows the general situation, why do you say that all the good things have happened to Zhang Zisong? The other boy sighed, "That's enviable!" Lan Yu was stunned for a moment, and turned her head in embarrassment as if she hadn't heard. What Lan Yu didn't expect was that this party made her feel the pressure of life from these graduate students, who may seem proud to others, but in fact they are vulnerable to social competition.

After eating, Zisong sent Mengshi and Lan Eucalyptus back to school, Lan Eucalyptus deliberately let them both walk side by side, she was either walking in front or behind, Mengshi turned her head suspiciously. Lan Eucalyptus looked up at the starry sky playfully, "Today's moon is so round and bright, like a light bulb." Brother-in-law, are you going to bask in the moonlight? Monsh giggled, about to spread out in the middle of the road. Zisong smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit, "It's all Bensan, and I feel very energetic when I see a child like Lan Eucalyptus." ”
