Chapter Thirty-Eight: Graduation Season
If he was really with Xiao Li'er, wouldn't she be so anxious to see him and humiliate herself?
Didn't he go to the United States to see his father, so he pretended to meet by chance and asked if his father was cured......
Qin Sangruo was racking his brains to think about the wording, and a deep magnetic voice sounded behind him: "What are you doing here?" ”
Qin Sangruo's little heart trembled, and he turned around slowly, deliberately exaggerating the expression on his face: "Wow, Senior Brother Lin, why are you, when did you come back?" ”
Lin Zixuan had just fetched hot water from the water room, and he was holding two hot water kettles in his hands, and the hot air was curling out of the uncovered lids, which looked a little weird under the dim street lamp.
For nearly a month, Lin Zixuan has darkened and lost weight, his eye sockets are deep, his lips are dry, his skin is dull, and his eyes, which have always been warm and clear, are dead and silent.
"I've been back for a week." He said.
Qin Sangruo's heart sank: "Oh, it turns out that you have been back for a week!" She hung her head, kicked away a small pebble at her feet, and raised her head again, with a smile on the corner of her lips: "How is my uncle now, the United States is so developed, his illness must have been cured, right?" ”
A touch of old sadness stained the corners of Lin Zixuan's eyebrows, and then continued to spread and expand, and finally his whole person was wrapped in that kind of dead and dull sadness.
Qin Sangruo's heart trembled, and he had a bad premonition.
"My father is dead!"
Lin Zixuan tilted his head when he said this, but Qin Sangruo still saw the unobstructed tears in his eyes reflected by the light.
"I'm sorry, I don't know." Qin Sangruo seemed to have made a big, big mistake, and he couldn't feel guilty.
Lin Zixuan tilted his head and didn't speak for a long time, Qin Sangruo knew that this proud boy was trying to adjust his emotions, and the sound of him snorting gently came from her ears, and she felt more and more guilty for her presumptuousness.
She was so careless, Senior Brother Lin had changed so much, why didn't she expect it?
A boy in the same dormitory as Lin Zixuan walked over from a distance with a basketball in his arms and patted him on the shoulder from behind: "Don't forget to have a casual meal at noon tomorrow?" ”
Lin Zixuan smiled at the boy: "Don't worry, I can't forget it!" ”
Qin Sangruo is really sad, there has been such a big change in the family, but she still has to force a smile on people, she would rather him be depressed and degenerate, than he is stronger than maintaining pride with self-esteem!
After the boy left, Lin Zixuan and Qin Sang stood wordlessly opposite each other for a while.
"I'm fine, it's all over!" He said.
Qin Sangruo stared at him for a few seconds, then walked over, stretched out his arms, and gently hugged him: "Come on!" ”
She didn't know why she was doing it, as if it was the only way to express what was in her heart.
She hoped that he could understand that no matter what happened at any time, she was around him, just like the hug just now, around him, defending him, and liking him!
Lin Zixuan's gloomy eyes showed a hint of brightness, he lightly opened his dry lips, and repeated the two words she had just said with some strength.
"Come on!"
Lin Zixuan's return made Qin Sangruo's whole person brighter, she began to wear light makeup and consider the clothes she wanted to wear every day, and going to school became the most anticipated and happiest thing for her.
She doesn't see Lin Zixuan every day, and even if she does, Lin Zixuan is mostly with his classmates and rarely has the opportunity to be alone with him.
But Qin Sangruo still felt very happy, and he would be happy for a long time when he looked at him from a distance.
This happy and bright mood continued to Lin Zixuan's graduation ceremony.
It was a very cloudy day, but it was surprisingly hot, and the weather forecast said there would be heavy rain.
The graduation ceremony had nothing to do with Qin Sangruo, but she was selected as the Miss of the Awards Ceremony because of her good image and good temperament, which suddenly solved her regret that she couldn't witness Lin Zixuan's graduation with her own eyes.
At nine o'clock in the morning, she was putting on makeup backstage, and several of her companions who had already put on makeup were hiding behind the curtain and chattering, Qin Sangruo had no intention of eavesdropping, but their voices were too loud, and the mouths of the girls who were constantly in the Lu Group and Lu Yanying kept popping out.
She put on her makeup and walked up to them with curiosity: "What are you looking at?" ”
Fingers pinched the curtain and gently pulled it back, and the auditorium was in full view, and most of the graduates had already arrived, bustling and lively.
Now school leaders are entering...... Wait, isn't the person sitting in the center of the first row of the guest seat Lu Yanying?
"What is he doing here?" Qin Sangruo frowned and muttered quietly.
The girl next to her asked casually, "Who are you talking about?" ”
Qin Sang stretched out his finger and pointed at Lu Yanying, and the girl rolled her eyelids at her: "That's the heir of the Lu family for a few days, the upstart in the business world of Jiangcheng, our principal took a lot of effort to invite him to be a guest!" ”
Qin Sangruo pursed his lips disdainfully: "Just him?!" ”
These two words of hers successfully aroused the eyes of the girls present: "Qin Sangruo, you dare to despise my new male god!" One of the girls said with a fierce look.
Qin Sangruo smiled and shrugged his shoulders and left.
The graduation ceremony officially began at half past nine, as usual, the principal spoke, the student representative spoke, and after a few singing and dancing performances, it was time for Qin Sangruo to present awards to outstanding graduates.
