Chapter 9
For two days in a row, she locked herself in her room in a depressed mood, so much so that when Li Zixin, who had returned late for two days in a row, knocked on her door early Monday morning, she ended her sleepless sleep all night. [Full text reading. 】
No one answered in the room, and Li Zixin leaned against the door and shouted suspiciously, "Xiaoxi? ”
Still no response.
She thought for a moment, and put her hand on the doorknob and tried to turn around.
The door is unlocked.
She opened the door softly, and the room was silent, the opaque curtains kept the morning sun out, and only a few playful rays of light slipped in through the cracks in the corners of the floor-to-ceiling windows, bringing a faint light to the dark room.
What time is it and you haven't woken up yet?
Li Zixin frowned, walked to the window and opened the curtains, the bright light immediately vented into the room, she walked to the window of Ling Xiquan and pushed it gently, "Xiaoxi, wake up, wake up." ”
Ling Xiquan was woken up as soon as he fell asleep, and he was really sleepy, "It's early in the morning, what are you doing......"
Her voice was hoarse with a hint of unawakened, and Li Zixin called her helplessly, "Don't sleep, you won't stay at home too comfortably and forget about reporting to the National University today, right?" ”
Ling Xiquan opened her sleepy eyes, the sunlight in the room was slightly dazzling, she instinctively blocked it with her hand, and blinked blankly.
NUS ...... Report?
It seems like...... Is there such a thing?
"Oh......" She rubbed her eyes, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, her eyes still a little sloppy and asked, "Why didn't you go out today?" ”
"Originally, I was going to go out, but I remembered that today should be the first day you went to report, and I was afraid that you would forget, so I will look for you first." Li Zixin leaned against the wall, looked at his friend slowly brushing his teeth in front of the sink, and muttered, "I didn't expect you to really forget." ”
Ling Xiquan glanced at her through the bathroom mirror and explained inarticulately, "No, I slept late yesterday and forgot to set the alarm clock." ”
"That's right." Li Zixin did not doubt that there was him, looked at the time, and said to her, "Since you are up, then I will leave first, and I will go to the National University to find you later." ”
She nodded, and continued to brush her teeth in the mirror until she finished brushing her teeth, turned on the faucet to wash her face, and the feeling of slight coldness came to her face, which was transmitted through the skin to the nerves in the brain, she suddenly woke up a little, and then asked loudly into the empty room, "Hey! How late is it? ”
Ling Xiquan listened for a while, but did not respond, thinking that he had already gone downstairs and went out.
"It's really fast." She muttered to herself, looked at herself in the mirror, and smiled bitterly.
The tranquil sky, the faint white intertwined with the distant blue, blends into a deep and distant autumn sky.
As a famous university, Ling Xiquan had heard of it when she was a child, but for her, this was a very strange university, the taxi drove through the traffic lights one after another, at first, she was still quite curious to look at the scenery outside the window, but as time passed, and when the radio in the car played one after another, relaxing lyrical songs, she gradually became sleepy, her head against the glass and fell asleep, so that the taxi crossed a long, spacious and freehand Wutong Avenue, When she slowly stopped on the side of the road opposite the gate of the NUS, she had been asleep for a long time.
"Miss? Miss? The driver woke her up, "Here we are." ”
She barely cheered up, paid and said thank you, and got out of the car with the folder.
The place where the NUS is located is more beautiful than she imagined, the long Sycamore Avenue has no end in sight, the warm sunlight shines through the dappled leaves, casting a golden streamer, and a variety of restaurants and dessert shops are scattered on both sides of the avenue, waiting for guests to patronize.
In the center of the sleek and wide marble correction gate, a cornerstone with the name of the University written in red is solemn and solemn, and young people full of youthful vitality either enter and exit the school gate in groups, or laugh and push and shove, but few walk alone like her.
Maybe it was because of the first day of reporting, she was inexplicably more nervous, so she lowered her head and checked her outfit today.
The elegant white lace shirt is worn over a casual black cardigan, a pair of fashionable boots are worn under the coffee-colored leggings, the soft long wavy hair hangs down a little on the chest, a few strands of broken curls are hooked behind the ears, the beautiful forehead and face are generously exposed, with picturesque facial features, looking graceful and beautiful.
Well, it's what I usually wear when I go to school, and it doesn't look inappropriate.
She relaxed a little, looking at the crowd at the school gate, a faint smile habitually appeared on her face, seven points polite, two points approachable, now, the fractal single figure in her heart was only unnaturally well concealed, she took a step and walked into the wide gate.
I don't know if it's her delusion, when she walked into the campus, the gaze on her suddenly increased, or she looked at it or was curious or just looked a few more times, she pursed her lips a little uncomfortably.
It shouldn't be.
NUS is so big, there are so many faculties, and there should be many students who are eye-catching, so why do you have to look at yourself?
Could it be that what I wear is too European and American and too unsocial?
"Excuse me, excuse me, how is the management department going?" Passing by a newsstand, she asked the school worker inside.
"Free map at the window, take it yourself." The middle-aged school foreman who was looking at the newspaper didn't lift it up, and waved his hand impatiently.
Free maps? Is the campus map?
She glanced at the newsstand full of magazines and books, saw a thick stack of folded maps on the outermost cabinet, looked at the school staff who were concentrating on reading the newspaper, she pursed her lips, took a map, and walked to find the location of the management department.
In the corner of the southwest campus, there are two red ceramic tile buildings that have been renovated, she held the information folder at the door and looked at it for a while, but did not see the names of these two teaching buildings, just a tall girl with a high ponytail hurriedly walked past her, she pulled her hand, "Excuse me, classmate, I want to ask if this is the Department of Management?" ”
Dressed in a sweater, leather pants and high heels, the fashionably dressed girl looked back, "Yes, this building is it." ”
Her heart settled for a moment, and then she asked, "Then do you know what floor the international student office is?" ”
"International Student Office?" The tall girl glanced her up and down, and then said, "The first one to turn right on the third floor is." ”
"Okay, thank you." Ling Xiquan smiled at her, and just wanted to go upstairs, but the girl stopped her suspiciously, and her tone was slightly hesitant, "Ling ...... Brook Spring? ”
