Chapter Twenty-Seven: Do You Have a Favorite in Your Eyes?
The next morning it was gray, so I got up ten minutes later than usual, and when I hurried out of the elevator, I happened to see Lu Li standing next to a bicycle, bending over to unlock it.
I remembered the embarrassing situation last night, paused, inhaled hard and breathed steadily, and then strode over, greeting Lu Li casually, "Lu Li is early, have you bought a bicycle?" ”
Lu Li glanced up at me and snorted "um" from his nose.
I was touched by Lu Li's indifference, but when I looked at my watch, I was about to be late.
I had no choice but to meet Lu Li's cold face with a shy hot face, "Lu Li, your back seat looks very comfortable, can you take me to school by the way." ”
"No, you can't." Lu Li refused very simply, and after speaking, he easily stepped on the bicycle with his right foot and rode away without looking back.
He rode very fast, as if he was afraid that I would chase him from behind.
I looked up to the sky and sighed that the world was hot and cold, the world was declining, I was careless in making friends, and I could only rely on myself for everything, so I took a deep breath and ran towards the school with my little short legs.
Luckily, I arrived in the classroom before the bell rang, and I sat in my seat panting. Wang Lu carefully handed me a tissue, "Here you go, wipe the sweat from your forehead." ”
"Thank you Lulu, or you're still nice to me. It's not like Lu Li's ungrateful stingy ghost......"
"Who do you say is ungrateful?" Someone next to me asked me.
I naturally replied, "Lu Libei." ”
After two seconds, I realized that there was something wrong with the voice of the question, and I raised my head to meet Lu Li's cold eyes.
"Lu, Lu Li, why are you here? Ahem. "I was so frightened that I choked on my own saliva and coughed.
I looked down at Lu Li's face, his hand was supporting Chen Fei, Chen Fei limped to his seat, and explained for Lu Li: "I played ball yesterday and broke my foot, and when I went home last night, Lu Li saw it, and he said that he would take me to school by bicycle in the morning." ”
It turned out that Lu Li was reluctant to take me to school because he was going to pick up Chen Fei, but I scolded him for being ungrateful behind my back.
I felt Lu Li's cold gaze from my back, and I couldn't help but shrink my neck, and smiled flatteringly at Lu Li: "Lu Li, you are really a good person who is old-fashioned, chivalrous, and brave." ”
But Lu Li didn't eat my flattery, threw a roll of his eyes at me, and said to Chen Fei instead: "I'll go to the piano room first, and I'll send you back after school in the evening." ”
"My dad came to pick me up after school, and you can practice the piano with peace of mind. Thank you today. ”
Lu Li nodded, didn't say anything more, and strode out of the classroom.
Chen Fei looked at the back of Lu Li leaving, turned his head and said to me, "Zhen Zhen, you really shouldn't have said that about Lu Li behind your back." I used to think that Lu Li was a difficult person to get along with, but now I think others are really good. ”
I couldn't help but laugh: "Actually, I'm just joking." ”
Thinking of Lu Li's gloomy face and cold eyes downstairs last night, I grabbed my hair in annoyance and brushed everything that happened from last night to just now, but I couldn't think of when, where, and why I offended him Uncle Lu Li! Besides, take 10,000 steps back, he was so close to Senior Sister Shinoying last night, it should be me who should be angry, right?
I opened my schoolbag depressedly, and I was surprised to find that Lu Li's homework book was still lying in my schoolbag, last night I was jealous of Lu Li and Senior Sister Shinoying, and completely forgot about my homework. Is Lu Li angry because I forgot to send him homework last night?
I didn't think about it anymore, and thought about sending my homework to Lu Li immediately after school.
When the bell rang for the end of class, I took the test paper that had just been handed out from Lu Li's desk, put it on yesterday's homework book, and carefully wrote down the homework to be completed in the past few days on a yellow sticky note, and pasted it on the top. With everything done, I picked up my school bag and went downstairs with my homework book.
I had just taken a few steps when it suddenly started to rain. Because I was in a hurry in the morning, I forgot to bring an umbrella. Turn back and hide from the rain, I don't know how long this rain will be. It's only a few minutes to get to the piano room from here, so you shouldn't get drenched. In order not to let Lu Li's homework book suffer, I stuffed the homework book into the school uniform jacket, pressed the homework book on my chest tightly with my left hand, and ran wildly in the rain.
I stood outside the piano and gasped for breath, carefully taking out the workbook, but fortunately it didn't get wet. I was just about to step into the piano room, when I suddenly felt dizzy, and I unconsciously squatted on the ground holding on to the door frame.
Sister Shinokage, who was sitting in the seat by the door, ran to my side in a panic and helped me, and asked nervously, "Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you?" ”
I weakly looked up and smiled at her, signaling to her that I was okay, "It's okay, running too fast, a little hypoglycemia." ”
In a trance, I saw Lu Li stand up from the piano, rushed over with an arrow step, squatted down in front of me, he reached out and took out a white rabbit toffee from the pocket of his school uniform jacket, quickly peeled it off, stuffed it into my mouth, and then helped me up with Sister Shinokage, and sat down on the seat by the door.
I took a minute break with the toffee in my mouth before I recovered slightly.
Lu Li looked at my bangs that were a little embarrassed by the rain, and habitually frowned again, with a reproachful tone, "Don't you know how to hold an umbrella when it's raining?" ”
I felt a little aggrieved and handed the homework to him, "I was in too much of a hurry to go out in the morning and forgot to bring an umbrella." It's not that I'm afraid you'll be angry, so I braved the rain to send you homework. ”
I said the second half of the sentence very quietly, I don't know if Lu Li heard it. But he stretched his eyebrows, took off his school uniform jacket, and gently covered it, oh no, threw it on me, and turned his face away, "Don't catch a cold, rely on me then." ”
With that, he walked to the other corner of the classroom and sat down at the piano to continue playing.
I draped Lu Li's school uniform jacket over my body, and a faint lemon fragrance soaked into my heart and spleen, making my heart soft.
"Zhenzhen, are you really okay?"
Shinokage-senpai sat next to me, gently brushing my bangs from my eyelashes with her hand, apparently my sudden dizziness had scared her just now, and her face was full of worry.
I was touched by Shinokage's sincere concern, and ashamed of the jealousy I had for her last night, and I comforted her, "I've been anemic since I was a child, and I'm prone to dizziness, but it's good to eat a candy and take a break." ”
Sister Shinokage pulled up the coat she was draping on her for me, "It's okay, don't catch a cold." ”
I smiled gratefully at my sister and reached out to tighten my coat, accidentally touching a hard object in my right pocket. I reached in and took it out, and it turned out to be White Rabbit Toffee.
"Lu Li, a big boy, likes to eat candy so much, and he takes it with him every day."
I can't help but remember that once I almost fainted while running on the playground, it was Lu Li who delivered me toffee in time, and at that time he said that he also liked to eat it, but he didn't expect him to like it so much that he kept it by his side every day.
Senior Sister Shinoying took the toffee in my hand, "But I remember that Lu Li doesn't like to eat candy." When I was a child, the school gave out a lot of flavors of candy, Lu Li disliked it too sweet and greasy, and he didn't want to eat one, so he gave it to me all in one go. ”
I was a little surprised, "But Lu Li told me that he also likes to eat White Rabbit toffee, so he often takes it." ”
Shinokage-senpai stuffed the candy back into my hand, and her eyes became meaningful, but I couldn't understand it, "Perhaps, his taste has changed now." After all, he is very different from before. ”
Before I heard Senior Sister Xiaoying talk about it, I suddenly became interested, "Senior Sister Xiaoying, are you very familiar with Lu Li?" ”
Senior Sister Shinoying nodded, "Well, my grandfather and Grandpa Lu Li are good friends, when I was eight years old, I studied piano with Grandpa Lu with Lu Li, Lu Li was very withdrawn at that time, I always ignored him when I talked to him, and after learning the piano, I hid in the room alone." We studied the piano together for seven years, and finally got acquainted with it, but he was still very indifferent, not smiling, and did not like to play with friends. ”
Listening to Senior Sister Shinoying's description, I somehow remembered the picture of Lu Li hunched over and hiding his face and crying, and his eyes couldn't help but moisten.
Senior Sister Shinoying didn't notice it, she glanced at Lu Li, who was still concentrating on playing the piano, and continued: "But this time with him, I found that he has changed a lot, and I feel that he has become much warmer and more cheerful. ”
"Yes," I sighed as I leaned on the table, "and he's a lot more affectionate now." ”
"So you were jealous last night because you also like Lu Li."
I didn't expect Sister Shinokage's words to hit my heart, and I was so ashamed that I wanted to find a hole to get into. I turned my head to look at Lu Li, who was playing the piano, because of the sound of the piano, he didn't hear the conversation between me and my senior sister.
I breathed a sigh of relief and tried my best to deny: "How, how is it possible. I'm not jealous, Lu Li and I are just friends, and our homeroom teacher doesn't let us fall in love early......"
Sister Shinokage's eyes looked at me with clear eyes, as if she saw me through, I wouldn't lie, so I had to surrender and admit, "Am I acting obvious?" I've hid it so tightly that I'm afraid my homeroom teacher will find out. ”
"I like this kind of thing, even if I cover my mouth, it will run out of my eyes."
I stared at Senior Sister seriously, wanting to verify her words, but Senior Sister winked at me, "Don't worry, Lu Li and I are just very simple friends." ”
I chatted with Shinokage-senpai for a while, and my body felt completely well, and I got up to go home. But I saw that there were large and small gifts piled up next to the seat of Sister Shinokage, including flowers, chocolates, handmade biscuits, and even a half-human-tall doll bear.
I picked up the big bear and asked in surprise, "Senior sister, is this all your gift?" ”
Senior Sister Shinokage nodded awkwardly, "Everyone heard that I was going to compete in two days, so they gave me some gifts to encourage me. I don't even know how to take it home. Or Zhenzhen, this bear will send you. ”
"Huh?" I didn't expect Shinohei-senpai to be so generous, "This is a gift from someone else, how can I take it?" ”
"I didn't like these plush dolls since I was a child, and the cute bear will be given to you."
Under the sweet words of Sister Shinokage, I was embarrassed to accept the big bear.
Seeing that Lu Li was still playing the piano, I took off my school uniform jacket, put it on the table, said goodbye to Sister Shinokage, and walked out of the piano room happily with the big bear in my arms.
As soon as he walked to the corner of the stairs, he saw that Lu Li had already put on his school uniform jacket and chased after him with his schoolbag.
I stood at the top of the stairs and waited for him, "Lu Li, you don't practice anymore?" ”
"I'm almost done, I want to go home and rest," Lu Li glanced at the big bear in my arms and raised his eyebrows slightly, "It looks quite like you." ”
I heard that Lu Li was belittling me, so I didn't bother to reply.
On the way home, Lu Li seemed to be still angry, and we were speechless all the way.
It was raining again, and suddenly an umbrella appeared overhead, and I looked up and watched Lu Li move the umbrella directly above my head.
I looked at Lu Li with great gratitude.
"I just think it's distressing that such a cute bear is drenched in the rain." Lu Li said lightly.
I moved the bear to the center of my arms, wiped off the fluffy water beads for it with my sleeve, and couldn't help but feel aggrieved: "Lu Li, don't you think I'm also very cute, and it's strange to be distressed when it's raining?" ”
He ignored me and walked on. The umbrella still covered me and the bear, and half of his own clothes were wet from the rain.
Lu Li, who doesn't like to eat candy, often carries toffee with him, is it because he has changed his taste, or is it ...... I didn't dare to think about it too much, so I only raised my head and secretly looked at Lu Li, but he happened to be looking at me as well.
At that moment, I tried to see something in his eyes that I was expecting, but before I could explore, Lu Li had already glanced away unnaturally.
Lu Li, do you like it in your eyes?
