Su Wen had long forgotten when it began, and the eye contact between him and Ji Heming became more and more frequent.

Sometimes on the playground, the girl met Ji Heming with a basketball in her arms on the way to the dormitory, he walked to the playground, and she passed him and embarked on another opposite path. Looking at each other and smiling, no one needs to say any more greeting words, and the sincere smile in his eyes has expressed all his heart.

Sometimes in the corridor of the classroom, the boys pass by the girls' class, and the winter air turns into frost, and the boys and girls are blown red by the cold frost of the morning, and they don't know if the red is from the morning frost or the blush from the throbbing mood. And the boy didn't know that the girl had to wait in the classroom corridor early in order to catch up with the time when he had breakfast and came to the classroom. By reading English texts, I had a chance encounter with a boy in a timely manner that I saw again and again.

No one said anything to destroy the balance between each other, and in the ordinary study and life, there are more smiles that pass by, more encounters under countless "coincidences", and more time spent struggling across a wall.

Su Wen didn't tell anyone about the careful thoughts hidden in his heart, even Xu Leqiu, who grew up together, or Zhang Xiaoli, his roommate who is inseparable every day. A girl's heart is like a mimosa that will close when touched, every time she touches it, the door to her heart is suddenly closed, and even she can only carefully avoid the sensitive places in her heart, rejoicing lightly, and silently looking at it.

Occasionally, through the frosty mist, Su Wen would think of the beginning of the first palpitations in that autumn day in his endless reverie.

It was an ordinary Saturday, and Su Wen didn't go home as usual, sitting alone in the library reading books and wasting time. The library on weekends was sparsely populated, and the girls forgot the lunch time when they looked at the books, so they simply used the afternoon time to read all the famous novels. When the girl walked out of the library in the evening, she found that it was pouring rain outside. It turned out that the girl was so immersed in the world of the novel that she ignored the rustling sound of the outside world.

Su Wen looked at the library behind her, and then at the rain curtain dyed with the sunset, and she had no umbrella so she had to wrap the book tightly in her arms. Hesitating whether to run back to the dormitory in the rain or continue to hide in the library to avoid the rain, the girl calculated the distance between the library and the student apartment in half a circle around the campus, and guessed the moment when the rain would stop in front of the rain curtain. However, there is no sign of stopping the rainy sky, and the library closes early on weekends, if you continue to hide from the rain in the library, if the rain keeps falling, until the closing time the girl still can't avoid the end of rushing back to the dormitory in the rain, and even more in the rain through the dark. Which is more important, the girl made a decision in her heart as soon as she compared.

Tightly wrapped in the book in the schoolbag in his arms, Su Wen rushed forward with an arrow step, but he didn't want some kind of force behind him to suddenly pull him, so that he rebounded backwards. The girl screamed and opened her eyes wide, but Ji Heming's white face appeared in her sight.

"Ji, Ji Heming?" The girl stammered.

"I called you just now, but you don't seem to hear me." Ji Heming's voice and the rustling sound in the rain sounded softly in the girl's ears.

Su Wen smiled embarrassedly, "Yes." ”

"I'm sorry," the boy let go of the hand that grabbed the girl's arm in a hurry, "I just saw that you were about to rush out, so I had to pull you, didn't frighten you?" ”

Su Wen was about to say, "It's okay", the boy's other hand had stretched out an umbrella like a trick, and the girl stared blankly at the umbrella that appeared in her sight, speechless in surprise.

"Here you go!" The boy smiled, and the afterglow of the setting sun illuminated the boy's bright eyes.

Su Wen asked almost without thinking, "What about you?" ”

"I," Ji Heming touched the back of his head and smiled shyly, "I still have a classmate in the library, and he brought an umbrella." ”

The girl looked at the boy ignorantly, and the boy then said, "You go first, I'll leave when my classmates come down!" ”

"Well, thank you!" Su Wen glanced at him gratefully, "Then I'll go, and the umbrella will be returned to you next time." ”

"Bye-bye!" The boy stood outside the library door and waved at the girl as she walked down the library steps.

On the way back to the dormitory, Su Wen held up the umbrella and tried her best to keep her body from splashing some rain, and she thought about it again and again along the way, and finally when she arrived at the dormitory, her mind seemed to be cleared up. No, the students who stay in school on weekends are a minority, and the classmates in Ji Heming's mouth are really people? If there is really such a person, why did Ji Heming go downstairs first and wait for his classmates to come down and walk together? And how did Ji Heming catch Su Wen when he rushed towards the rain curtain?

Su Wen's heart was pounding, and he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

It was still pouring rain outside, and when he returned to the dormitory, Su Wen felt extremely warm inside. I don't know if it's because the heavy rain is surging up the mud and producing a stuffy breath, and a warm current is surging from the girl's chest to the nerve endings of various blood vessels.

The boy didn't rush back in the rain with the same umbrella with the girl, but said that there was another classmate with an umbrella upstairs in the library, and the only reason was that-

It's a white lie.

Su Wen could see in the corridor of the dormitory at the curtain of rain falling from the glass window, and the raindrops hit the glass window in a flowing manner, making a crackling sound, and scattered in all directions obliquely. The sky was getting darker, and the street lights were dim on the path outside the student apartment that connected to another apartment. The dim light of the street lamps hit the plane trees planted between the apartments, creating a beautiful silhouette in the rain curtain. The rain kept falling obliquely, and the dim light shone on the strings of rain, as if it was a beating spirit on a rainy night.

I don't know if Ji Heming is still hiding from the rain in the library.

I don't know if I can catch up with the speed of the boy's rush to the rain curtain if I run to the library that spans half a school distance at this time, and touch the boy's eyebrows and eyes with a gentle smile.

Quickly rushed back to the dormitory to get his umbrella, Su Wen took the boy's umbrella, locked the dormitory door and ran down.

I don't know if I'll be able to catch up, but she thinks she has to rush over.

Of course, the outcome of that incident was as Su Wen had predicted early in the morning, and by the time the girl was panting and inhaling the earthy moisture in the air, the lights in the library had been extinguished, and the librarian had just locked the library door.

"Little girl, what are you doing here? Something left in the library? The chubby aunt said to the panting girl with kind eyes: "If something has fallen, come and get it early tomorrow!" ”

"......," the girl gasped with difficulty, "No, Auntie, are all the library people gone?" ”

Aunt Administrator looked at Su Wen with the eyes of a fool, "The doors are closed, aren't they all gone!" ”

Su Wen asked hesitantly, "That'...... Did anyone come back in the rain? ”

"Of course there is, the rain fell so suddenly, and several boys ran back in the rain!" Auntie patiently explained.

"Well, thank you, Auntie." The girl's heart was inexplicably worried, but it seemed to be sandwiched with some inexplicable thoughts.

The aunt of the administrator then said, "You should go back quickly, a girl's family, how unsafe it is to wander around the school alone!" ”

"Well, I'll go back immediately, thank you Auntie for your concern!" Su Wen waved the umbrella in his hand at the caretaker's aunt, "Goodbye, auntie!" ”

Su Wen saw Ji Heming again the next day, that is, before the evening self-study on Sunday, when the boy was called out of the classroom by the girl, and walked in front of the girl but was far away.

"Ji Heming, how did you go back yesterday?" Su Wen looked at Ji Heming's pale face and asked worriedly.

The boy smiled uncomfortably, "I...... Didn't you say that, one of my classmates brought an umbrella, and I went back with him! ”

"Really?" The girl chased after him, noticed the boy's thick nasal voice, and hurriedly asked, "You...... Got a cold? ”

"Well, it's a little bit of a cold, but it's all a minor problem, not enough to worry about."

"I'm sorry." The guilt in the girl's eyes was clearer, and she originally wanted to ask, "Did you really go back with your classmates?" After thinking about it, he changed the conversation again, "Remember to take cold medicine!" ”

"Well, it's okay, I don't usually take medicine for this little cold." The boy had a low-grade fever, his eyes were misty because of dizziness, and the crimson on his cheeks looked strange to the girl.

The girl silently watched everything, didn't say anything, and handed the neatly folded umbrella to the boy.

"Your umbrella."

"Remember to look at the weather next time you go out." Ji Heming's gentle smile bloomed on his face, "I saw you running back in the rain once before!" ”

"Is there one?"

The girl's eyes widened in surprise, when did he notice that he was in the rain? Searching for my own memories, it seems that I had the experience of being drenched in the rain a long time ago. Also in the library, the same rainy evening.

And at that time, where was the boy who witnessed her in the rain?

It is strange to say that Su Wen has gone to the library to study and read books on weekends so many times, but he has never met Ji Heming head-on. Judging from Ji Heming's hard work, presumably Ji Heming is also like her, living in the library all the time.

The first time I met in the library was on a rainy evening.

Sometimes, some coincidences are just that strange, and I can't tell why, but they happen all around us from time to time.

Su Wen thought to himself, maybe that is not a coincidence?

Su Wen recalled the old things not long ago, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised an arc.

Now she seems to be much bolder than before, the girl who walked through the crowd of strange classmates in the corridor at the beginning of the school year always timidly lowered her head, but now she can let go of her steps, pretend to pass by a class inadvertently, and glance at the class inadvertently.

Unfamiliar faces are automatically filtered in the eyes of girls, and the girl's gaze can always be quickly fixed on a figure looking out the window with her head propped up.

She likes to pretend to look casually at the boy's side face holding his head in a daze, watching from a distance, but it is enough to make the girl lower her eyes and smile.
