Chapter 18: If Love Has Providence (2)

If you want to choose one of his favorite times of working in the library, it is the half-hour from 6 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Because at that time, the school would broadcast the "Campus Voice" on time.

This kind of campus radio will be held every day at noon and afternoon, but only in these two days, will the entire campus of HKU be filled with Cao Aiqing's soft and graceful voice.

It's like a gift from autumn, the autumn dusk sun casts a golden soft light filter on the whole campus, and the red maple leaves in the school are swirling in the wind, as if they are responding to something.

I don't know how many boys' hearts will be imprinted with this beautiful memory, and when they meet the golden autumn many years later, will there be a ripple in their hearts......

The radio in the library isn't as clear as it is on Campus Boulevard, but it's quiet enough that you can listen carefully if you just concentrate slightly.

"Mr. Akiga, you seem to like listening to the radio too."

It was an ordinary Friday, He Tianran was holding a book frame, and the library was full of books that were "left" on the table by his classmates, and it happened that Cao Aiqing was broadcasting, so his movements were a little slower, which attracted a joke from a girl who was traveling with him.

This girl is also one of the student administrators in the library, and she is in the same school of economics as He Tianran, but the two are not the same major, the other party is studying business administration, one level older than He Tianran, and she is already a senior this year.

The girl's name is Yao Qingtao, her appearance, compared to the few girls she had come into contact with before, she was naturally not very beautiful, but she had a good personality, with the kind of heartiness unique to northern girls, and she was a girl who could easily make people feel intimate.

He Tianran usually calls her Sister Peach, and Yao Qingtao will jokingly call this junior teacher Teacher He.

Because she felt that He Tianran always had the temperament of a literati master, he was not slow to do things, and even when he usually spoke, he was gentle and clumsy, if he was older, he must be a gentle old pedant.

"Yes, the content of Cao's broadcast is usually quite interesting, and he didn't blindly read the script to the script, even if he talked about some campus trivialities, it felt much more vivid."

He Tianran put a copy of "Decameron" on the table into the book frame, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, his face was not covered by every trace of being broken, he evaluated sincerely, like the kind of generous who was just discussing his amateur preferences with his friends.

Look, this is the reason why Yao Qingtao feels that He Tianran is young and old, is this what she wants to express?

"Teacher He, what I actually want to ask you is, do you also like Cao Aiqing?"

Yao Qingtao simply broke the way directly.

He Tianran smiled slightly, and did not deny it: "Of course I like it." ”

In the face of this straightforward and concise affirmation, Yao Qingtao was stunned for a while: "Which, which kind of like?" ”

She was afraid that He Tianran would change her words, so she hurriedly asked again.

"As far as boys like girls, there are all kinds of mentality of appreciation, desire, temptation, and possession, it's just a little bit of it, maybe I appreciate Cao more now."

“……”

Yao Qingtao felt that this answer was really ...... There are rational enough.

The two walked out of another paragraph, and the girl threw a copy of "The Ordinary World" into the book frame, turned back and asked:

"Teacher He, I heard that you and classmate Cao have known each other before?"

He Tianran nodded: "Well, we are high school classmates. ”

"Then you're not close to the water, you have to ...... first"

"Smack~"

Just when Yao Qingtao wanted to continue talking, it was dark in front of her, and it turned out that He Tianran was holding a book in his hand and gently patted her on the head.

"What about this kind of thing, I can't explain it, Sister Peach, just be solemn, don't gossip so much."

He Tianran slowly took the book, Yao Qingtao's eyes reappeared bright, only to see the corner of the man's mouth smiling, as bright as a jade tree, there was always a faint fragrance of cedar on his body, as if with a clear temperament, only when he got close could he smell it, just like others, clean and low-key.

Yao Qingtao shifted her gaze and took a step back.

"You also know to call me sister, Teacher He, you also have to be more respectful of your senior sister."

"Okay, okay."

He Tianran answered twice and continued to work.

Yao Qingtao, who was usually very arrogant, was stunned for a while, and after coming back to her senses, she cautiously followed He Tianran, who had already walked out of a paragraph, and reopened a new topic.

"Teacher He, I have something that I don't know if to talk about or not, maybe you already know it, maybe it'......"

"Well, generally those who say this have to say it in the end."

He Tianran didn't look at her, but looked around, the books in this area, the two of them had been recycled.

Yao Qingtao said cautiously:

"It's just recently, on our school's BBS, there are some rumors about Cao being bad from time to time, do you know?"

"Huh?" He Tianran turned around, "What bad rumors?" ”

Yao Qingtao pondered for a moment, as if she was pondering how to say it, and after a while, she said slowly:

"That's it...... Well...... Some people at the forum said that Cao Aiqing was actually a ...... A bad woman, when she was in high school, she often played with other people's feelings, anyway, when others confessed to her, she didn't accept it, but she wouldn't refuse, so she kept hanging others, and it felt very ...... tea, and even one of her high school classmates jumped out to break the news...... said that you have a nose and eyes, Mr. He, you ...... Know about it? ”

After listening to this, He Tianran silently stepped aside and put down the book frame, as if thinking about something.

"Uh, Mr. He......?"

"Sister Peach, when did this happen?"

"Three or four days ago, although the post was very popular at the beginning, but everyone read it as a piece of gossip, but I don't know how, there have been people replying to the post, and then the people in the forum deleted the post, and this kind of slanderous thing didn't stay long, but this attracted the reverie of those who haven't read the content, and there have been people asking in the forum, and someone has been answering, so it's inexplicable that you can see it every day, and it's ......"

"And what?" He Tianran asked.

"And...... Teacher He, didn't you just quarrel with someone else Cao not long ago, and this matter was posted on the forum, which made some people speculate that you were so angry when you found out about someone else's classmate Cao's past, do you know it...... That's what you are...... Quite sensitive......"

Yao Qingtao looked at He Tianran, the man's face was as calm as water, and he couldn't see any joy or anger, and when he said that this matter involved him, he suddenly smiled, as if he had heard a joke, and asked:

"So...... Hey, I'm still a victim at the end of the day? ”

Yao Qingtao nodded.
