Chapter 26: Jealousy
I walked in the long corridor with my homework book, this is the Nth time I have sent homework to Lu Li, and now I have climbed to the fifth floor, and my waist is not sore, my legs are not tired, and I am not panting.
When I was about to arrive at the piano room, there was a sudden hearty laughter from the boys, not Lu Li's voice.
I stood at the door and knocked on the door, there was a boy with his back to him, talking happily with the music teacher, Lu Li and Sister Shinoying were sitting at the piano, interjecting a couple of sentences from time to time.
I heard a knock on the door, and the boy with his back to me turned around.
"Brother Lin Zhi?" Before I could be surprised, I blurted out in an instant.
Lin Shang took a step forward, looked at me, and asked uncertainly, "Are you Zhenzhen?" ”
I nodded, and Lin Zhi touched my head happily, "The eighteenth change of the female university, you have grown taller and more beautiful." ”
Although this was Lin Zhi's polite greeting, this was also the first time someone praised me for being beautiful, and I scratched my nose embarrassedly, "Brother Lin Zhi, why are you here?" ”
"My mentor and I came to Dragon City to attend a seminar, and it just so happened that there was no arrangement today, so I came to Yangfan to see my senior sister?"
"Senior sister?" I asked, confused.
Lin Zhi pointed to the music teacher next to him, "It's your Teacher Yang, she is the senior sister of our 2000 class of Yinda." ”
Before I moved, Lin Zhi and I have always been neighbors, he is five years older than me, he has always taken care of me like an older brother, he was admitted to the piano department of the music university three years ago, and then I moved, and we lost contact. I didn't expect to meet him at school today, I was so excited that I pulled Lin Zhi to the corridor to chat.
After chatting for a few words, Lu Li walked out and interrupted our conversation with an unkind face, "Where's my homework?" ”
I then remembered that the purpose of my visit was to send homework to Lu Li, and I hurriedly handed the homework in my hand to Lu Li, "Here, here, the folded place is what I have to do today." ”
Lu Li took the homework and looked at me with raised eyebrows, "You're not going home yet?" ”
I'm chatting with Lin Zhi to the end, of course I don't want to go home yet, "I'll talk to Brother Lin Zhi again." ”
Lu Li frowned, and his tone was a little cold, "Tomorrow's math quiz, you don't have to go home to review?" ”
There is indeed a math quiz in the first class tomorrow, and I haven't reviewed it yet, but I haven't seen Lin Zhi for a long time, and I want to stay with him more.
Lin Zhi saw my embarrassment, "Zhen Zhen, I will stay in Dragon City for two more days, I will invite you to dinner tomorrow night, and you will go home first today to review well." ”
"Brother Lin Zhi, I'll go home first, and I'll see you tomorrow."
I said goodbye to Lin Zhi, and after taking a few steps, I turned my head to look at Lu Li, who was still standing in place, his eyebrows loosened, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised.
The next day, Lu Li didn't come to class all day, I packed my schoolbag, swept to the empty seat on the left, and couldn't help but ask Chen Fei: "Why didn't Lu Li come to class today?" ”
"Lu Li has asked Mrs. Yuan for leave for the weekend competition, and will go to the piano room to practice in the second half of the week," Chen Fei smiled and handed over a few homework books, "I will trouble you to bring these homework to Lu Li." ”
I took the homework book, and remembered that I was going to have dinner with Lin Zhi for a while, so I stuffed the homework book into my schoolbag, planning to give it to Lu Li when I got home.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw Lin Zhi, who I admired when I was a child, wearing a familiar white shirt and jeans, standing in front of the teaching building against the light, his back was as gentle and upright as I had in my impression over the years. The students who came and went were secretly looking at him, and even a few girls greeted him with red faces, and Lin Zhi responded politely.
I waved my hand and ran towards him, "Brother Lin Zhi, I've been waiting for a long time." ”
Lin Zhi smiled kindly like the wind, "Let's go, I'll invite you to dinner." ”
After eating at a local restaurant near the school, Lin Zhi asked me to accompany him to the video store.
After entering the video store, Lin Zhi went straight to the piano music area and concentrated on selecting CDs. I looked at it boredly, remembering the piano sheet that Lu Li was looking for before, so I turned my head and asked, "Brother Lin Zhi, have you heard of the book "Xunyang Ancient Tunes"?" ”
Lin Zhi nodded in surprise, "Of course, this piece is often taught by professors as a case. How would you know? ”
"I asked Lu Li," I explained, "it's the boy in the piano room." His grandfather had collected the book, but he had accidentally lost it, and he was eager to find it again. ”
"This book has indeed been out of print for a long time, and the people who own this book are people who like piano music, and few people are willing to give it away."
Lu Li's regretful expression appeared in front of my eyes, and I felt a sense of loss in my heart, so I bowed my head and said nothing.
Seeing my depressed look, Lin Zhi gently rubbed my hair, "My mentor knows a lot of people, I can ask someone to help you ask, and tell you as soon as there is news." ”
I immediately smiled, "Really? Thank you, Brother Lin Zhi. ”
Lin Zhi laughed heartily when he saw me, and also laughed, "It seems that Lu Li is your very good friend." ”
I nodded heavily and said solemnly, "Very, very important friends." ”
"He's a good guy for playing the piano. I think if he wants to escort Yinda next year, it will be a sure thing. ”
Even Lin Zhi praised Lu Li's talent, and I suddenly wanted to see him immediately and tell him the good news in person.
Coming out of the video store, Lin Zhi said that he would take me home, and we walked side by side in the night.
The video store is not far from my house, about a 10-minute walk, and I will be downstairs from my house.
"Zhenzhen, I'm going back to school tomorrow. Glad to see you back this time. Lin Zhi looked at me quietly, with tenderness and reluctance in his eyes.
As far as Lin is concerned, like Gu Zijin and Gu Zipei, they are friends who grew up with me.
At that time, we lived in the town, and Lin Zhi was going to go to junior high school in the city, because the school was far away from home, he could only board, and he only came back once a week or even half a month. When Lin Zhi wanted to go back to school, I would always run to the intersection, take his big hand, and ask him coquettishly: "Brother Lin Zhi, when will you come back?" ”
Although we are all grown up now, in each other's eyes, we are still close friends. I grabbed Lin Zhi's sleeve, "Brother Lin Zhi, when will you go back to Dragon City?" ”
Lin Zhi still rubbed my hair gently as before, "If nothing else, I will come back after graduation next year." ”
"Are you going to go back to Dragon City to work?"
"Well, I'll surprise you then."
Lin Zhi's face was mysterious, but it made me wonder what this surprise was?
I was about to ask, but I saw Lu Li and Shinoying walking side by side not far away, the two of them were discussing something intimately, there was a flying insect flying into Shinokage's hair, Lu Li raised his hand and gently drove her away, Shinoying looked at him with a smile to show her gratitude.
This is the first time I have seen Lu Li behave so gently and attentively in front of others.
My heart was full of flavors, I wanted to glance at it, but my eyes seemed to be nailed by something, because they couldn't move my eyes uncontrollably, I bit my lip and squinted as Lu Li and Xiaoying Senpai got closer and closer.
Seeing that I was motionless, Lin Zhi stretched out his hand and waved it in front of me, and asked with concern, "Zhenzhen, what's wrong with you?" ”
I retracted my eyes full of vinegar and shook my head, "I'm thinking that it will be a long time before I see Brother Lin Zhi, and I'm a little reluctant." ”
Most of the reasons for saying these things are just to cover up their own weakness. But Lin Zhi didn't notice it, he comforted me, "If you want me, call me, we can still talk about everything as before." It's getting late, you go upstairs. ”
I felt a trace of guilt in my heart, looked up at him and smiled, "Brother Lin Zhi, tomorrow will be a safe journey." ”
Lin Zhi turned around and walked a few steps, and greeted Lu Li and Senior Sister Xiaoying, who were walking opposite. The three of them briefly exchanged a few words, and Lin Zhi left.
Lu Li glanced at me, and changed back to his previous calm and unhappy voice, "I came back so late, don't you have to do your homework?" ”
Thinking of the intimate picture of Lu Li and his senior sister just now, jealousy rose in my heart, and I replied in a weird tone in Lu Li's yin and yang tone, "Fifty steps and a hundred steps, you yourself don't come back so late." ”
Lu Li stopped talking, his eyes looked past me, and looked at the dark street behind me.
I waited for a long time and didn't hear what was going on, so I had to talk to Sister Shinoying instead: "Sister Shinoying, why are you here?" Do you also live in this neighborhood? ”
Senior Sister Shinoying shook her head and replied softly, "I came to visit Lu Li's grandmother, I haven't seen her old man for a long time." ”
Lu Li took Senior Sister Xiaoying to visit Lu Li's grandmother, it seems that Wang Ning is right, their relationship is indeed very good.
I grinned reluctantly, "Oh, that's right. ”
"What about you, junior sister, did you go on a date with Lin Zhi just now?"
Sister Shinoying deliberately dragged out the word "dating", my face burned to myself, and I explained incoherently, "No, we just ate together." Brother Lin and I are good friends, he is going back to school tomorrow, we haven't seen each other for a long time......"
I glanced at Lu Li with my spare eyes between speaking, I don't know when he withdrew his eyes and looked at me, but his face was still calm, my heart skipped a beat, Lu Li shouldn't have misunderstood anything, right?
The culprit, Senior Sister Shinoying, laughed out loud, and she gently poked my cheek with her slender fingers, "Senior Sister, you are so cute, no wonder even I like you so much." ”
was "confessed" in public by the beautiful senior sister, my face turned red, fortunately, no one could see it clearly in the dim light, otherwise the picture of me blushing at the beautiful woman in front of me at this time was really weird and difficult to distinguish.
"Let's go home." Lu left the mouth, I don't know if this sentence is to go home to me, or to Sister Shinoying.
He turned around and walked quickly into the corridor and pressed the elevator, and Shinokage-senpai smiled at me and walked in with him.
I stood still, wondering if I should share the elevator with them.
Before I could think about it, Lu Li called me impatiently: "Ye Zhenzhen, what are you doing in a daze?" Don't come over yet. ”
I walked into the corridor hard, Lu Li was standing in the elevator at this time, pressing the door button with his right hand, looking at me with a frown, and beside him was He Xiaoying, who was always smiling gently. For the first time, I felt that the elevator space was so cramped, so small that it seemed like there was no room for a third person.
I stopped my left foot as I was about to step into the elevator and waved my hand to them uncomfortably, "You guys take the elevator, I'm too full tonight, take the stairs to eat." ”
When the elevator door closed, I couldn't help but sneak a glance at Lu Li, his eyes were cold and sharp, penetrating my mind like an X-ray, I hurriedly turned my eyes away, turned around and turned into the staircase.
