Chapter 22: The Unheard Confession

In the second monthly exam, I still failed to squeeze into the top 20 in the science rankings as I had hoped. I thoroughly accepted the fact that I was not a science student, and willingly filled in the liberal arts on the list.

Finally, I didn't have to rack my brain to solve the problem, my mood was extremely relaxed, and I turned my head to find Gu Zijin to go to the commissary, but found that she was not in her seat.

I just remembered that Gu Zijin was "dating" her senior Chen Yao at this time. Because Gu Zijin has painting skills, and she is also a member of the literary and artistic committee of our class, the teaching director sent her to use the evening self-study time to help publish a school newspaper, and Chen Yao was also sent. For Gu Zijin, this is simply a godsend, so every afternoon after the last class, she is the first to rush out of the classroom to meet the "lover".

I went to the commissary to buy good things, and made a detour to see how Gu Zijin and Chen Yao got along.

From afar, I saw Gu Zijin talking to Chen Yao with his head down, and he looked like a lively girl.

I wanted to pass by quietly, but Gu Zijin suddenly turned around and beckoned to me, as if he had eyes behind him, "Zhen Zhen, you're here." ”

I trotted over and said hello to Chen Yao.

Gu Zijin suddenly hugged my arm and smiled sweetly at me, "Zhen Zhen, I mentioned you to Senior Chen Yao just now." ”

I secretly screamed in my heart, but I didn't dare to show it, so I had to pretend to be surprised and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

"It's your birthday this Saturday, didn't you say last time that you wanted to invite us to the beach on your birthday?"

It's my birthday on Saturday, but when did I say I wanted to go to the beach? I twisted my eyebrows and wanted to question, Gu Zijin squeezed my arm fiercely, and I nodded painfully, "Yes, yes, I'm going to the beach to play on my birthday." Senior Chen Yao, let's play together, there are many people. ”

My witty answer was recognized by Gu Zijin, she let go of the hand holding my arm, and looked at Chen Yao expectantly, "Yes, Senior Chen Yao, you can come and play together, and then you can talk to a few of us about how to study liberal arts." ”

Chen Yao didn't see the cattiness between me and Gu Zijin, he readily agreed, "The birthday star invited me, and I will definitely cheer." ”

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Gu Zijin urged me to leave, "Zhenzhen, the self-study class is about to start, you can go back quickly." ”

Obviously, I didn't want my light bulb to disturb the two-person world between her and Chen Yao, so I had to be a good person to the end, waved goodbye to them, and walked briskly towards the classroom.

In order to catch the bell of the self-study class, I took a shortcut and walked from another remote entrance of the teaching building, but I didn't expect to meet Wang Ning's confession to Gu Zipei at the staircase of the teaching building. To avoid embarrassment, I had to hide around the corner.

Wang Ning stood shyly opposite Gu Zipei, completely devoid of her usual arrogance, "Gu Zipei, I hope you will study science with me." ”

Gu Zipei turned his back to me, but he could imagine his awkward appearance at this time, "Why should I go to science with you?" ”

Wang Ning's face was so red that it looked like it was about to drip blood, "Because I like you, I want you to be in the same class as me." ”

Gu Zipei's back trembled slightly from shock, "But I don't like you." ”

If I have a stick by my side, I will definitely wake up Gu Zipei with a stick, even if you don't like people, there is no need to be so direct.

Gu Zipei obviously didn't notice the tears that Wang Ning was about to fall, and continued: "Besides, you are still so squeamish, so fierce......"

Before he finished speaking, a loud slap echoed over the campus, and Wang Ning turned around and ran out of the teaching building crying.

I was worried about Wang Ning, so I chased after her.

Wang Ning sat on the stone bench behind the administrative building, crying and scolding in a low voice: "Gu Zipei, bastard, idiot ......"

Seeing me approaching, Wang Ning immediately closed her mouth, wiped her tears with her hands, and put on a proud face again, "What are you doing here?" Laugh at me? ”

"I accidentally saw you and Gu Zipei just now..... I'm the squad leader, so I can't leave you alone. ”

I sat down next to Wang Ning, took out a tissue and handed it to her, and she hesitated for a moment to take it.

"I know Gu Zipei doesn't like me, I just want to work hard before I am classified, but I didn't expect him to reject me without even thinking about it! I know you all hate me. ”

Wang Ning, who is sitting next to me now, is no longer the squeamish little princess who was high above me and has no one in her eyes before, but a little girl who works hard to fight for her liking.

I reached out for her to tuck a lock of hair that fell to the corner of her mouth behind her ear, because I was afraid that she would refuse, so I moved quickly, "Actually, I have never hated you, but I think you are more cute when you are so honest now." ”

Wang Ning turned her head to look at me in astonishment, as if trying to discern the truth of these words from my eyes.

I'm telling the truth, so I'm not afraid of her looking, so I explained for Gu Zipei, "Gu Zipei always speaks without thinking, he must not think so in his heart, don't take it to heart." ”

Wang Ning turned her face away, "It doesn't matter, anyway, it's going to be divided soon." ”

I can understand Wang Ning's feelings, she just wants to continue to be in the same classroom as the person she likes, so she will work bravely once. Seeing Wang Ning, who was lost because he couldn't be in the same class as Gu Zipei, I seemed to see my depressed self before.

"Wang Ning, it's my birthday this Saturday, we decided to go to the beach to play, you can come too."

Wang Ning was slightly distracted at first, and after a long time, she nodded.

In this way, the seaside day trip of Gu Zijin's temporary uprising was carried out as scheduled, and the team grew to six people, namely Gu Zijin, Chen Yao, Gu Zipei, Wang Ning, me, and Lu Li.

I was very surprised that Lu Li agreed to come. It is said that Gu Zijin said something to Lu Li at that time, and Lu Li, who was not interested, immediately agreed. The last basketball league was the same, Gu Zijin's words made Lu Li change his mind. Could it be that Lu Li has any handle that Gu Zijin has in his hands?

Gu Zipei didn't know that Wang Ning would come in advance, and when Wang Ning jumped up and ran in front of Gu Zipei, he reflexively covered his face and took a few steps back, "Wang Ning, you, why are you here?" ”

Wang Ning hooked my arm, "Vera invited me to her birthday!" ”

Gu Zipei's skeptical eyes drifted to me for verification, and I nodded.

"I brought a lot of snacks and drinks, my dad's car is waiting for me over there, Gu Zipei, you can help me bring it together."

Wang Ning didn't wait for Gu Zipei to agree, so she couldn't help but pull him away.

Soon, the two of them came back with two large bags of snacks that we left on the beach.

Six people stood in a row, facing the sea. Gu Zijin shouted "go", and the six of us ran towards the sea together.

Gu Zipei proposed to play a sea war. Lu Li was reluctant to participate, so he hid in a safe place to avoid being caught by us.

Gu Zipei ran to my side, "Zhenzhen, I'll tell you......"

"Ye Zhenzhen, there's a crab here." Lu Li suddenly called me, interrupting Gu Zipei's words.

I followed the prestige, and Lu Li stood not far away, pointing to the sand hole under his feet with his left hand, and beckoning to me with his right hand.

I ran over and squatted down curiously, and observed for a long time, "Lu Li, how can there be crabs?" ”

"When you came over just now, it slipped away that way," Lu Li picked me up from the ground, "Let's go over and have a look." ”

Lu Li walked leisurely along the beach, I followed him, stepping on his footprints, looking for the crab with my head down, Lu Li's big footprints wrapped my little feet, and I smirked unconsciously.

Many years later, I can often recall this image, my best friends laughing and playing around me, and the people I like walking in front of me, and if I get a little closer, I can reach his broad shoulders. It would be great if we could be together like this all the time.

In the evening, several of us sat side by side on the beach watching the sunset. Gu Zipei wanted to sit next to me, but Lu Li stepped in and sat down next to me first.

Gu Zipei said dissatisfiedly: "Lu Li, why don't you let me sit next to Zhen Zhen?" ”

Lu Li looked innocent, "Look, it's obvious that I sat down first." ”

Gu Zipei saw that Lu Li was reasonable, and sat down next to Wang Ning depressedly.

I asked Lu Li in a whisper: "Why do you keep targeting Gu Zipei today?" ”

Lu Li tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I'm fulfilling him and Wang Ning." ”

I see, it seems that Lu Li is also quite a bastard!

When the sunset disappeared on the sea level, Gu Zijin tricked me to hand a Mayday album, "Bell bell, gift time." Zhen Zhen, I know you didn't buy this album before, but my brother and I traveled all over Dragon City to get it! ”

Then Wang Ning and Chen Yao also gave me gifts one after another. Wang Ning gave me a set of cartoon dolls for Mayday, and Chen Yao gave me Ashin's book "The Birth and Reincarnation of Rock Poetry".

I was so excited to hold the gift that I didn't know what to say.

In the end, only Lu Li did not give a gift, Gu Zipei asked, "Lu Li, where is your gift?" Take it out. ”

Lu Li shrugged, "No one told me that today is Ye Zhenzhen's birthday. ”

The atmosphere became a little awkward, and I hurriedly played a round, "It's okay, I forgot to tell Lu Li." ”

The end of the day. Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei went home in their own car, and brought Wang Ning and Chen Yao with them by the way. Because the car couldn't sit down, Lu Li and I took the bus home.

Because it was the last train, there was no one in the carriage, and Lu Li and I sat by the window.

Lu Li took out a cassette tape from his pocket, "Here you go, happy birthday." ”

I took it in surprise, "Aren't you unprepared?" ”

Lu Li swept the gift in my arms, "You have received so many gifts, it shouldn't be bad for me." ”

"Why, who would be afraid of too many gifts!"

Besides, it's still a gift from you, I secretly added in my heart.

I opened the box of the tape, and the front of the tape reads "Compulsory 1 English unit3".

I couldn't help but twitch the corners of my mouth, "What are you sending me English tapes for?" ”

Who gives a gift to an English tape, even if you give an English tape, you still have learned.

Lu Li said with a mysterious expression, "You'll know when you go back and listen." ”

When he said this, my curiosity was piqued, and the feeling of being hung up made me very uncomfortable.

I pestered Lu Li to tell me what was in the tape, but he kept silent. Maybe I was a little annoyed by my question, so I just put on my headphones and listened to the song.

Lu Li has a habit of listening to songs, he likes to turn the music to the loudest, and sitting next to him at this time, I can faintly hear the sound of the piano coming from the headphones.

Maybe it was because I was tired of playing during the day, Lu Li closed his eyes, I looked at him boldly with a sideways face, and from my angle, his eyelashes were like butterflies falling on the stamens, flapping his wings gently. At that moment, the noise of the cars and horns shuttling outside the window seemed to disappear, and the whole world was left with me and Lu Li sitting side by side.

I remembered that Lu Li and I were about to separate soon, so I suddenly felt a little irritable, I wanted to tell Lu Li that I actually like you, thinking so, the words blurted out, realizing that I had said the wrong thing, I quickly covered my mouth and secretly observed Lu Li's reaction. Lu Li, who was listening to the song, still had his eyes closed, and his eyelashes trembled a few more times.

I feel a little lucky, glad that Lu Li didn't hear my confession, but I was a little disappointed, and I was a little disappointed that I might never have the courage to say that I like you in front of him again.
