Chapter 29: Cats
In mid-August, Xiao Wen asked me to hang out again, but I felt a little embarrassed, so I just chatted a few words very simply, and finally did not go out together. I learned that he chose science in the end, but unlike me, he chose physics and chemistry.
I sighed, feeling more confused about a lot of things.
After staying at home for a whole week and not going out, I was finally blasted out by my mother with the excuse of "going out more", and when I went out wearing a skirt that didn't match fashion at all, I met Gu Nanxing.
Sometimes I really think that this thing is very magical, when I dress up carefully and go out, unless I have a special friend, I often don't meet someone I know, but when I dress casually, I will inexplicably meet a friend I care about.
He stood in the bookstore, walking along the shelves somewhat casually, sometimes taking down a book, then flipping through a few pages, and putting it back again, and then he seemed to see a copy of interest, took it, and stood next to it and read it.
I hesitated for a long time whether to come forward and say hello, but at least I didn't, so I hid behind a bookshelf, holding a book at random, as if I was reading a book seriously, but from time to time I secretly glanced at him.
The corners of his mouth were smiling, and he hooked up an arc that seemed to be there and nothing, which was really good-looking. Suddenly he looked in my direction, and I quickly held up the book, covering my face as if I was reading a serious book.
When I took the book down again, Gu Nanxing was no longer there, I was a little surprised, I looked around to find the figure, but I was startled by the person who appeared behind me.
"You...... What are you doing standing behind me? I asked in a low voice.
Gu Nanxing laughed mischievously: "I just want to see how long you still have to watch me." ”
I was speechless for a moment and said, "What do you see? I'm reading, but why are you in the bookstore? ”
Gu Nanxing laughed softly, leaning close to my ear, his voice was very low, my ears were a little itchy, probably red in anger: "Yes, I look at you, I've been watching me for a long time." ”
"I ...... Actually, I'm looking to see if I've recognized the wrong person. "I made an excuse on the fly.
"Oh? So, did you recognize the wrong person? Gu Nanxing looked at me with some amusement.
"Hmm...... It seems that you are not mistaken, you are Gu Nanxing. I replied with some exasperation.
"I can't see it, you love to read horror novels." Gu Nanxing took the book in my hand, looked at the title, and said with a smile.
"Well, I like it." I didn't know I was holding a horror novel, and I didn't want to continue the conversation, so I walked to the side.
Gu Nanxing smiled and followed.
"Where are you going now?" He asked naturally, as if we were out to play together today.
I shook my head and said, "I don't know, you see." ”
Gu Nanxing thought for a while and said, "Okay, let's go, then I'll take you somewhere." ”
He took me through the alleys, and the voices around me slowly dispersed, but there were a lot more birdsong chirping.
It's a small flower and bird market, hidden in the layers of commercial streets, I never knew that there was such a place.
As we walked all the way, there was a large dog lying on its stomach in front of the store, a large but very docile one, wagging its tail occasionally.
Next to it is a cat shop, the owner is a middle-aged woman, sitting in a rocking chair, fanning herself with a fan, we walked in, she didn't stand up, just let us take a look for ourselves. The kittens were very lively, and I finally fell in love with a little white cat with blue eyes, I can't say the exact breed, but I think her blue eyes are wet, like a clear sky after rain.
I bent down to tease the cat, turned my head, and suddenly saw Gu Nanxing looking at it, his eyes were full of smiles, and his heart was beating fast.
I stood up and said, "Alas, when I work in the future, I must have a little kitten, fluffy, like a little ball, so cute." ”
"Well, so do I." Gu Nanxing smiled and said.
