Chapter 277: Misidentification
Although Zhou Ziqi's words were extremely peaceful, from his calm face, Tang Yating really didn't feel anything.
Her red lips pursed slightly, and she raised her head to look at the campus scenery in front of the lawn, and suddenly felt a little bored in her heart.
Maybe what Zhou Ziqi said is the truth, after all, she and Chang Qing didn't know each other before, and they didn't have any personal grudges, and the latter had no reason to deliberately target herself, but for some reason, Tang Yating still felt that between her and all the classmates, as well as Chang Qing, there was a faint and inexplicable barrier.
And it is this feeling that makes her unhappy in school, so except for Tong Beibei and the two roommates who sleep with her a little better, she has almost no friends in the public college.
Even the Zhou Ziqi in front of her, who can be counted as a classmate for many years, Tang Yating has too many lingering knots in her heart to tell him.
"Maybe......"
Tang Yating's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her tone seemed calm and abnormal.
Such an unexpected reaction made Zhou Ziqi, who wanted to continue to think about what to explain, sat in place, and for a while, he didn't understand, so he had to look at her quietly.
"By the way, I just asked you about Nalan Yunxiao-"
Seeing that Zhou Ziqi didn't mean to speak again, Tang Yating naturally calmed down and began to think about the second question that she asked him outside the classroom door just now.
However, after seeing Zhou Ziqi's suddenly wrinkled eyebrows, she seemed to remember something, so she blushed and hurriedly explained: "Don't think too much, I'm just looking for him to have something very important." ”
Zhou Ziqi's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, his eyes flickered a little, and he thought in his heart, could it be that he thought too much about it this time?
"He must have had an accident at home, and I saw his father, the director of our school, Nalan, come to the college a few days ago. I guess it has something to do with his leave......
Zhou Ziqi stated with a little reminiscence, and at the end of the words, he still couldn't help but ask: "By the way, what is the important thing when you are looking for him?" ”
Raising her hand and gently scratching her falling hair in front of her forehead, Tang Yating lowered her head, not knowing how to answer.
After thinking about it for a while, she raised her eyes to Zhou Ziqi again, sighed helplessly, and said frankly: "Because I have something left on him, I want to find him to come back." ”
"What is it? He didn't bully you anymore, did he? ”
seemed to hear the helplessness implied in Tang Yating's words, Zhou Ziqi's face changed slightly, and his expression gradually became serious. Although there has always been no correspondence or grievances between him and Yun Xiao, if the latter has always insisted on finding trouble with Tang Yating, then even if he risks offending most of the girls in the academy, he will have to find Yun Xiao to reason well.
"No, it's just that I forgot to get it back when I left him there, don't be so nervous all the time. Ziqi, I know you care about me, but I don't want to involve you in my affairs because of myself. Do you understand? ”
The cool breeze slowly blows, stirring the girl's cheeks and the soft hair that falls from her forehead. Tang Yating's eyes were like autumn water, and she watched Zhou Ziqi try her best to euphemistically say all the words in her heart. She is naturally not a person who doesn't understand feelings, Zhou Ziqi is clearly full of concern for herself word by word. Out of friendship between friends, Tang Yating didn't want to implicate him.
"After all, the weight of my friend in your heart seems to be very light, right?"
Zhou Ziqi suddenly stood up and patted the little dirt and weeds stuck to his trouser legs. He turned his back to Tang Yating, looked at the jagged red tiles and white walls on the campus in the distance, and said in a quiet tone, so that Tang Yating couldn't see any look on his face at the moment.
"I didn't mean that, I just-"
"Okay, I'm just kidding you, I know."
Just when Tang Yating listened to the clear complaining meaning in Zhou Ziqi's words, worried that Zhou Ziqi would misunderstand and was about to explain in a hurry, the latter suddenly interrupted her, and slowly turned around, leaned over and smiled softly at her, and stretched out her hand: "Oh, get up, after all, the ground is still damp, and sitting for a long time is not good for your health." ”
"Oh." Seeing that Zhou Ziqi didn't take his words to heart, Tang Yating tapped the head of the mantis very obediently, and then stretched out her hand and held Zhou Ziqi's outstretched palm.
The five fingers were bent together, gently holding Tang Yating's plain hand, feeling the softness of the mutton fat jade version faintly coming from the palm, Zhou Ziqi's expression couldn't help but be a little refreshed.
But under that softness, there was still a little coldness, and it penetrated into his warm flesh from his fingertips, which made his brows furrow slightly, and after hesitating for a moment, his arm suddenly exerted force before pulling Tang Yating up.
"I didn't scratch you just now, did I?"
Holding Tang Yating's palm, Zhou Ziqi recalled the scene just now when he was tightly dragging the latter and running quickly. At that time, he naturally felt the constant struggle at Tang Yating's wrist, but out of a momentary anxiety in his heart, he pinched his fingers tighter instead.
"Well, no, it's okay."
Although the soreness in her wrist could still be faintly felt, Tang Yating also knew that Zhou Ziqi did not mean it, so she naturally tucked it away and didn't say it, she didn't need to worry about it because of this.
"It's just that your hands, why are they still so cold when it comes to autumn and winter? You should buy gloves to wear, or a warm baby or something like that. It's been cold like this, and if you get chilblains after winter, it's not a joke. ”
Zhou Ziqi stretched out his other hand, held Tang Yating's lightly cold palm, and gently rubbed it, trying to transfer the temperature of his palm to Tang Yating's hand.
"I've always been like this, I'm used to it, so why waste money on those things." Tang Yating's pretty face was slightly sad, and her wrist used some strength slightly, wanting to withdraw her hand from Zhou Ziqi's palm.
It's not that she doesn't want the latter to help her warm her hands, but after all, they are just ordinary friends, there is a difference between men and women, and this is a public place in the academy.
However, Zhou Ziqi obviously didn't mean to let go, he didn't use much strength in his palm, but gently rubbed it for Tang Yating with a little hurry. The latter frowned slightly, glanced at him helplessly, and after feeling the comfort of the back of his palm gradually becoming warmer, he had no choice but to compromise and let him continue to warm up for himself.
But maybe today really met Tang Yating's unlucky day, and as soon as she let go of the idea of being a little apprehensive and worried about being seen, an extremely familiar call suddenly sounded in her ears.
And this voice fell into Tang Yating's ears, but her pupils dilated suddenly, and her whole body couldn't help trembling slightly.
"Qingyi! What are you doing? ”
Hearing the extremely familiar call, although the person in the voice was not herself, Tang Yating's eyes looked extremely surprised.
When she saw the figure not far in front of her, standing on the edge of the lawn and about to rush to this side, she couldn't care about Zhou Ziqi warming her hands in front of her, and without hesitation, she pulled her palm hard, and there was a slight stinging pain on the back of her hand caused by friction, and she hurriedly hid it behind her.
Because she saw that rather slender figure, that well-defined and familiar handsome face, was Mo Qingfeng!
The scene in my heart that I didn't want to be discovered by outsiders just now was suddenly seen by Mo Qingfeng, who found himself?
And Mo Qingfeng even mistook himself for Liu Qingyi! Could it be because I suddenly changed into the same hairstyle as Liu Qingyi today for some reason?
When Mo Qingfeng's face was gloomy and she ran quickly under the huge banyan tree in the middle of the lawn, Tang Yating's heart was already in chaos, her eyelashes trembled, and she unconsciously lowered her head, not daring to look at Mo Qingfeng's figure, and her steps couldn't help but slowly retreat a little, trying to keep herself away from Zhou Ziqi.
She didn't understand why she was so flustered; It's just that the thoughts in her heart have been telling and reminding herself that she can't let Mo Qingfeng misunderstand, she must not ......
"Yating, what's wrong with you?"
Because Zhou Ziqi had always turned his back to Mo Qingfeng's direction, he naturally didn't notice the appearance of the latter. He stared at Tang Yating tightly with a pair of pupils, and his eyes looked a little solemn, because he had never seen Tang Yating, and he was flustered like this because of something.
"Huh?"
It wasn't until Mo Qingfeng ran closer and closer to the tree that Zhou Ziqi finally noticed the sound of feet stepping on fallen leaves that was gradually coming from behind him.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had just figured out something, and then turned his head suddenly, but it happened to meet Mo Qingfeng's eyes full of anger, and the fist that was rapidly enlarged in his pupils, and it was too late to dodge.
"Knock ——!"
A punch slammed into Zhou Ziqi's white left cheek, because of the excessive force and the lack of time to react, Zhou Ziqi was directly under his hard blow, and his whole body staggered back several steps, until he leaned on the trunk of the banyan tree, and then sat down weakly.
"Ziqi!"
Seeing this, Tang Yating recovered from the embarrassment and panic just now, she looked at Zhou Ziqi who was still a little dazed and didn't know what to do under the tree, and couldn't help but hurriedly exclaimed, and then quickly ran to the bottom of the tree and held his body that he wanted to lie down.
His gaze fell directly on his face that was so red that it was almost swollen, Tang Yating's eyes showed a look of shock, but there was a faint hint of complicated anger.
"Mo Qingfeng, why did you suddenly hit someone? Where has he offended you! Is there anything you can't say? ”
