Chapter 68: A Change in Certain Attitudes (Part II)
It takes about twenty-one days to form a habit, but it only takes ten days for Prunella to form a new habit - walking.
Specifically, it is to accompany Su Hexiang...... Walk.
In the last few days, he has become accustomed to this kind of routine—during the day, he will follow Hai Jinsha to study and meditate in the forbidden area of the library, and when he returns at night, he will tacitly meet with Su Hexiang at the dormitory gate before dinner, and then ...... I started walking.
The reason why the word 'tacit understanding' is used here is because Xia and Su have never invited or agreed to each other for this event, but no matter which of the two arrives first, they will tacitly begin to wait for the other.
And as the reputation of Prunella vulgaris became more and more infamous in ten days, Su Hexiang also narrowed the scope of her walk at the same time, not wanting the other party to bear the pressure that had accumulated enough during the day.
The other three people who lived here together knew about this activity that happened between Prunella and Su Hexiang, and in addition to the Miss Ziling who gave blessings from the bottom of her heart, Hai Jinsha and Bai Quartz all objected to this for different reasons, but they all knew that Prunella would not accept their objections, so they also tacitly never spoke, but only openly and secretly cared more and more about it.
This kind of concern seems to be no problem at present, and even the previous Hai Jinsha will remind the summer grass that the time has come after looking at the sky, but what calculations do they have in their hearts, and what will they do in the future because of this concern...... But even themselves...... I don't know.
But for Xia Kucao, the current time with Su Hexiang is the only activity that can make him let go of all the distractions in his heart, so from the moment he stepped out of the door of Haijinsha, he adjusted his mentality, and trotted directly to the place of rendezvous, feeling very happy.
Xia Kucao didn't know what this relationship between him and Su Hexiang could count as, but he did subconsciously like to stay with this kind and innocent girl who preferred to be old-fashioned and serious, and it felt like drinking a clear and sweet spring.
But he also felt nervous, and this nervousness made him completely become a goose, so whenever he walked with Su Hexiang, it was a meeting between a serious little adult and another goose, although the two were very close, they rarely spoke.
As for holding hands and above...... It never happened.
Xia Kucao naturally thought about how to improve this strange relationship between him and Su Hexiang - not only thought about it, but had already done it - he was like all the first brothers, picking up the things he felt were most embarrassing and whispering to the other party, such as his own forbidden code, such as his own small world...... For example, how he defeated Du Heng that day.
This is a boy in front of another girl he likes, purely sincere, hoping to use his own peculiarity to make the other party boast about his childish behavior, full of trust, it is extraordinarily beautiful.
So at the moment, Su Hexiang is already the person who knows the strength of Prunella grass the most, although whenever Prunella grass shows off like a child, she always shows a little distraction, as if she never cared, and she never let out an exclamation.
Xia Kucao was naturally a little disappointed, but he was not half discouraged, he thought that this was just the reason why the other party did not understand the profession of sealer, he knew that Su Hexiang had always had a greater sense of belonging to his identity as a war nun, but since the other party had entered the school, sooner or later he would know the common sense of some sealers, and further recalled how special he was, and how powerful he was destined to be in the future - strong enough to protect anyone.
It's just that even if all this happens, it will happen in the future, so Su Hexiang at this time was a little distracted, and there seemed to be a touch of melancholy in her clear eyes, just looking at the scene of late winter and early spring outside the dormitory in a daze, and she didn't notice what Xia Wither Cao was saying awkwardly at this moment.
The tips of the trees on the campus are pulling out a little green shoots, and the spring breeze that is still cool is blowing and swaying them, and the light in Su Hexiang's eyes is also swaying gently, so that the summer withered grass that is staring at her wants to fall into the eyes of the other party and become the treetops.
He suddenly quieted down, looked at the other party quietly, felt empty in his heart, some indescribable feelings, he didn't understand why the other party had behaved so cold and easily distracted with him in the last ten days, and he didn't understand why even if he behaved like this, the other party was still willing to walk with him or even be willing to wait for his late self.
But he doesn't like this way of getting along, because he has realized that something is blocking him and the other person, making the other party unwilling to accept him completely, but he doesn't know what those things are, so he can't solve it, he can only empty and keep thinking about it, and he is very distressed.
"Tomorrow. Su Hexiang suddenly turned his head, smiled slightly, there was some indescribable taste in his eyes, and said to him, "Let's rest tomorrow?"
Xia Kucao was startled, and was a little frustrated that the other party was really no longer willing to take a walk with him in this hazy night, but he immediately heard the other party's next sentence and began to be happy.
"Tomorrow, I want to visit the academy, and if I can, I want to ...... You're here for me. ”
Su Hexiang didn't have the shyness of a little daughter when she said this, but a touch of determination flashed on her face, as if she had made some decision, she was very serious, which was undoubtedly a little abnormal, but how could Xia Kucao care about this now, he was just constantly thinking about how to ask for leave from his senior brother Hai, and he responded without hesitation: "Okay." ”
......
At about nine or ten o'clock in the morning, Su Hexiang woke up from her sleep, her sleep quality last night was quite good, because it took ten days for her to finally decide what she should do, and she also made the first move according to her psychological thoughts.
She didn't think about how careful she was with the summer withered grass last night, reporting today's rest to the blue-blooded nobleman, nor did she think about what Hai Jinsha and the bishop in the Holy See would think of her actions today, she just stretched out her waist and began to look out the window at the scenery that had become more and more beautiful in the past ten days, and fell into a contemplation about the change in her attitude.
Just as Xia Kucao thought, even after entering the Sealing Master Academy, Su Hexiang never regarded her identity as a sealer as very important, in her opinion, she was always the war nun who served the Holy See, with her own tasks or duties.
This task has nothing to do with Prunella, nor is it any conspiracy, she just follows the tacit understanding between the Holy See and the Academy for thousands of years to understand and observe what changes this Academy has made in her generation, so as to make an assessment.
She is not the only observer, not even a very important observer, and because she stands in the open, she has a very relaxed mentality, just blindly wants to enjoy this peaceful life, and although she was a little dissatisfied at the beginning to perform such a task away from the little saint Maiden, but the appearance of Ziling and a certain teenager filled the hole in her heart, and she also knew that as the little holy woman grew up, separating them from each other was the Holy See's plan to cultivate the independence of the holy woman.
Until the letter appeared ten days ago--
The letter was written by a certain bishop, who, in a very kind but earnest tone, had ordered her to do something for someone.
So she began to hesitate.
She was a war nun of the Holy See, and the other party was a bishop of a region far above her, and even if the letter was not taken through formal means and the bishop was not his direct leader, the letter written by the other party and the other party clearly represented the will of one side of the Holy See.
And with her gratitude to the Holy See, she could not resist the will of the Holy See, which was so simple that she could not think of a reason to excuse it.
The spring scene outside the window still has some winter feelings, so it seems very cold, but the observation in the past ten days has made her know that this winter spirit cannot suppress the blooming of some life breath.
So in her imagination, the breath of life outside the window gradually turned into a face, a face that looked a little round, and was full of sincerity and simplicity.
Then Su Hexiang smiled and quietly clenched his fists, firming up his original thoughts.
She is indeed grateful to the Holy See, but she also has a simple view of right and wrong, and as Ziling said, duels should be sacred and fair, and the order in that letter violates this, then just as winter can't suppress the breath of spring, she doesn't think she should accept the order in that letter.
So she prepared to disobey, to return to the Holy See, to express her doubts to the bishop herself.
But until then-
She felt that she still had some time to enjoy the warmth that a young man had given her, and she responded to it.
Thinking of this, Su Hexiang smiled again, then spread out her black hair and began to dress herself seriously and clumsily.
