34. A little heart

In the eyes of Zhan Xiaopai, Bai Xiaoding's abandonment of repetition is a contemptible cowardly behavior, because it not only reneges on his agreement with her, but also means that he has given up struggle and chosen comfort, and he has given up excellence and chosen mediocrity. She despised this kind of behavior, and always hoped that he would change his mind and give herself a big surprise. This hope was quite firm at first, but as time went on, the firmness gradually turned into hesitation.

Since that time at the barbecue restaurant, Zhan Xiaopai went to that restaurant again, but not to eat, just standing in a corner from afar and watching Bai Xiaoding busy inside and out, she was really deflated at that time, because by the end of August, the repeaters had already sat in the classroom and worked hard, and her Bai Xiaoding was still wearing dirty clothes to burn charcoal in this small shop, and the only glimmer of hope in her heart became even more slim.

Although disappointed, Xiaopai's heart still can't let go of Xiaoding, in two days, she will leave for Beijing, before leaving, I really want to see Xiaoding, even if there is nothing to say to each other, it is good to be able to say goodbye calmly. Just when she hesitated to call him, Xiao Ding's call to meet came first, and Xiao Pie immediately agreed, and couldn't help but get excited, she wondered, did he change his mind? If that were the case, great!

The date location was set by the small party, and it was still under the big locust tree in Yuanbao Mountain. The reason why she chose there was because she felt that it was a blessed place for her and Xiaoding.

Before leaving, Zhan Xiaopai dressed up seriously, washed her hair, tied up her ponytail, put on light makeup, and put on her favorite white dress, which was as beautiful and flowing as a fairy.

When she was about to arrive at the big locust tree, she saw Xiao Ding standing under the tree from a distance, Xiao Pie couldn't help but be happy, Xiao Ding she saw today was her favorite appearance, white T-shirt, sky blue uniform shorts, white sneakers, bright, clean and refreshing.

"You're here." Bai Xiaoding walked over to Xiao Pai, and his stunning gaze lingered on Zhan Xiao Pai's face.

"I thought you wouldn't ask me out again!" Zhan Xiaopai put away the flower parasol and pouted.

"Actually......" Bai Xiaoding scratched his head, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you out, but ......"

"But what?"

Bai Xiaoding was struggling, and Zhan Xiaopai suddenly screamed and pointed at his arm, "Bai Xiaoding, why do you have so many scars on your arm?" ”

"It's okay......" Bai Xiaoding hurriedly put his arms behind his back, he didn't want Zhan Xiaopai to see this.

"Oops, there are so many on the legs too!"

Xiao Pai squatted down to check the scars on Xiao Ding's calves, and Xiao Ding subconsciously stepped back.

"These injuries were all burned while you were working at the barbecue restaurant, right?"

Zhan Xiaopai reached out to touch those scars, she couldn't imagine how painful these injuries would be when they burned up! Bai Xiaoding took a step back nervously.

"Bai Xiaoding, are you stupid?" Zhan Xiaopai's eyes were already red, "To do that kind of tiring and dangerous work, are you so short of money to spend?" ”

"It's okay," Bai Xiaoding said relaxedly, "These scars will be flattened in a few days......

"I won't ......" Zhan Xiaopai didn't know what to say, she twisted her head to the side and quickly wiped away the tears that had already flowed.

“…… Don't talk about me, you're leaving, aren't you? I heard it was tomorrow's car. ”

Bai Xiaoding changed the topic, he didn't expect Xiao Pie to be so careful and look so serious, otherwise, no matter how hot it was, he would have come out to meet her in long sleeves and long pants.

Zhan Xiaopai tried his best to calm down his emotions, and only said after a while: "Well, if we don't meet today, then we won't see each other for a long time, and if we see each other again, it is estimated that we will have to take the winter vacation next year." ”

"Yes......

"Xiao Ding, you asked me to come here today, is there something wrong? Or ......" Zhan Xiaopai looked at Bai Xiaoding with a look of anticipation, "What do you want to say to me?" ”

"I ......" Xiaopai's question made Xiao Ding feel embarrassed, "I won't be at the station tomorrow to see you off, I will ask you to come out today, so I should send you a ...... in advance"

"Oh...... In addition to seeing off, you ...... Is there anything else you would like to say to me? ”

“…… When you arrive in Beijing, you must pay attention to your physical ......"

"Well, I see......" Pi's gaze dimmed, "anything else?" That's it? Did you ask me out today just to say these few painless words to me? ”

“…… So what else should I say? Bai Xiaoding knew what Xiaopai wanted to hear most at the moment, and he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart.

"Yes, nothing." Zhan Xiaopai turned his face away and looked into the distance in disappointment.

"Xiaopai, this little gift is a little bit of my heart......" After Bai Xiaoding finished speaking, he took out a small red cloth bag from his trouser pocket, and reverently held it in front of Zhan Xiaopai with both hands, as if holding a heart that had just been pulled out of his chest, "I wish you to go to Beijing to go to university...... All the best! Good luck! Please take it! ”

"What's this?" Zhan Xiaopai turned his head, looked at the red cloth bag and then at Bai Xiaoding, his eyes widened.

Bai Xiaoding raised her hands up and motioned for her to look for herself. Zhan Xiaopai hesitated to pick up the red cloth bag, pulled the drawstring, and took out a jade pendant with a ruyi theme from the bag, which looked beautiful and crystal warm.

"It's a beautiful ......" Zhan Xiaopai looked through it, then put it back in the bag and handed it to Bai Xiaoding, "Bai Xiaoding, this gift is too expensive, I can't ask for it." ”

"Little pie, don't reject me, okay?" Bai Xiaoding became nervous, "This is a little bit of my heart, can you take it?" ”

Zhan Xiaopai took Bai Xiaoding's hand and put the red cloth bag in his hand, and said solemnly: "I said, this gift is too expensive, I can't ask for it!" ”

"This one is not expensive, it is really not expensive! This piece of emerald is what I learned from ...... Bought in the market, you see......"

Bai Xiaoding blushed, and eagerly took out the jade pendant from the bag as he spoke, pointing to the knotted part of the red lanyard on it to show Zhan Xiaopai, "This red thread rope is still matched by myself, and it was not tied when the knot was knotted, and I burned it with a lighter!" ”

Seeing that Bai Xiaoding said so well, Zhan Xiaopai was confused, "But...... This piece of jade is so beautiful, it can't be very cheap, right? ”

"This, this just means that it is destined for you!" Seeing Zhan Xiaopai's hesitation, Bai Xiaoding came to his senses, "If you don't look good at it, then how can it be with you?" Have you forgotten what Master Xuan told us before? He said that there will be an eye relationship between people who are destined, and there will also be an eye relationship between that person and jade! ”

Xiaopai obviously liked Xiao Ding's statement, but was still reserved, "Then I can't ask for it, if I want it...... What's that? I don't want to. ”

"You really don't want to?"

"I really don't!" Zhan Xiaopai's tone resolutely turned his face away.

"Good! Zhan Xiaopai, I gave this thing to you, and I just want to give it to you, since you don't want it...... Then I'll throw it away. After Bai Xiaoding finished speaking, he shook his hand, and the red cloth bag flew far away, and fell straight to a small cliff on the side of the mountain.

"Whoa! Bai Xiaoding, you are crazy! How did you throw it away?! Seeing the red cloth bag flying out, it was too late for Zhan Xiaopai to stop it, so he turned around and left, and was pulled by Bai Xiaoding.

"So you mean you want it?"

"You threw it all away and said it worked?" Zhan Xiaopai was about to go crazy.

Bai Xiaoding smiled evilly, and as soon as he turned his palm, the jade pendant was in his palm. It turned out that just now, when Zhan Xiaopai couldn't see it, he bent down and picked up a small stone and stuffed it into the red cloth bag.

"Call you bad, call you bad, call you bad!" Zhan Xiaopai, who was tricked, came to his senses and used a chicken pecking fist to beat Bai Xiaoding indiscriminately.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong." Bai Xiaoding begged for mercy repeatedly.

"Bai Xiaoding, why didn't I find you so bad before!"

"Will you take it, little pie?" Bai Xiaoding once again held up the jade pendant with his hand in front of Zhan Xiaopai, and his pleading gaze made Xiaopai unable to refuse.

“…… All right. Zhan Xiaopai hesitated for a while, but still agreed, and took the jade pendant from Bai Xiaoding's hand, and Bai Xiaoding secretly breathed a long sigh of relief.

"You...... Want to bring it? ”

Bai Xiaoding's tone was marked with obvious anticipation. Zhan Xiaopai glanced at him, handed the jade over, then turned around and pulled away his hair, Bai Xiaoding carefully helped Xiaopai bring the jade pendant. Pie took out a small mirror from her pouch and looked at it, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she could see that she really liked this piece of jade.

"It's beautiful! Bai Xiaoding, how do you know that I like jade? ”

"I've heard you say that before."

"Really? When did I say that? I don't remember......" Zhan Xiaopai picked up the jade pendant and played with it in his hand.

Bai Xiaoding stood quietly on the side, looking at her with a deep gaze.

The origin of the idea of buying jade as a gift is that Xiao Ding wants to repay the "debt" to Xiaopai due to the breach of the contract. Doing the hardest job and buying all his wages as gifts for her is the only way that Xiao Ding can think of and do that makes him feel able to repay this debt in case of emergency. For him, this piece of jade is no longer a simple object, it is attached to his soul, carrying his apologies and sincere wishes, I only hope that her future is all right!
