Chapter 9: Relationship Breakdown
There are so many big tongues in every class, and they are used to adding oil and vinegar to the information they get to make a propaganda for each other, and it is difficult to evaluate this fact with moral standards, but this fact has really affected the lives of others.
Maybe it was because I was too involved in the exchange on the topic of bride price, I ignored the existence of other people around me, and they heard some clues, and the gossip was spread like a virus, at first it was my friend, then it was a good classmate in the class, and then everyone seemed to know, more than one person asked me the same question, and they were all rumoring that I was in love with Lin Chuxue, even to the extent of talking about marriage.
To be honest, when I first heard this rumor, I didn't reject it, I didn't think about explaining anything, and I even thought about confusing it with falsehood, wishing that this misunderstanding would be as deep as possible, but even so, I still briefly explained, but most people expressed disbelief. It wasn't until I felt Lin Chuxue's abnormality that I realized that the misunderstanding was actually not beautiful at all.
She began to deliberately avoid contact with me, and I tried to find some topics to communicate with her more than once, but she chose to turn a blind eye, ignore it, and not listen to it. The icy atmosphere reached its peak for a time. Sitting in the seat as quietly as before, she will go out as soon as the bell rings, I don't know what to do when I go out, I just know that the time to come back will be chosen one second before the bell rings, and her deliberateness makes me feel an unprecedented crisis.
I knew that our rumors had affected her and disrupted the rhythm of her life, but at least her reaction told me that the misunderstandings were something she didn't want to hear, so she would choose to prove her innocence with her actions.
Her indifference made me feel unusually depressed during that time, in order to avoid other people's irresponsible comments, I also began to try to act with her in her way, that area experienced a long period of cold war mode, zero communication, zero contact, and then she began to avoid me less deliberately, and she would not be the first to avoid me after class, but she was still as cold as usual, for fear that her excessive enthusiasm would bring unnecessary trouble to herself.
The misunderstanding will not be easily resolved, this is what I realized when I heard a joke from Zhiqiang.
"Chief, I've made your family Bingbing angry again."
I know that explanations are meaningless, and if others don't believe them, what's the use of explaining more. Instead of saying something, do something. However, it is better not to do anything when people are irrational, because my next actions completely buried the previous harmony between me and Lin Chuxue.
It's been a while since I went to Class 5, and everyone gets along quite well, and I sit with other people from time to time to brag and talk about the mountains. During the self-study time after a certain class, PHS Zhao Yi, me, and Lin Chuxue's former suitor Li Xiaojie made a bet. It was Zhao Yi who brought it up, and he saw that there was some problem between me and Lin Chuxue, and made a suggestion that I thought was good at the time.
The three of us agreed to pursue the girls in the class, the time is one week, the successful party enjoys the loser's tribute for a week, a bottle of nutrition express every day, in order to improve the difficulty, the two girls in the class who are generally considered difficult to chase are the object of pursuit, one of them is Lin Chuxue, and the other is called Xu Yan, who is also a good-looking girl in the fifth class.
Zhao Yi's idea is very simple, during the time he came to the fifth class, he felt that the person named Xu Yan was good, and he fell in love, but he was naturally very cowardly, embarrassed to speak, thinking that maybe he could use external forces to stimulate himself, and indirectly help me ease the embarrassing situation with Lin Chuxue, Li Xiaojie's liking of Lin Chuxue is also a fact that he already knew, even if it is to give us a chance to compete fairly.
Li Xiaojie's thoughts must have nothing to do with Xu Yan, he only pays attention to Lin Chuxue, and the reason why he chose to join in is not to pursue her, because he has been rejected many times, and there is no need to experience another blow. He just wanted to see my attitude and Lin Chuxue's thoughts, or, he wanted to see the result after I was rejected by Lin Chuxue, the result he had already expected.
I'm simple, I need one thing to prove that I have nothing to do with Lin Chuxue, and the best way to break public opinion is to create a bigger public opinion. At the time, I thought that this idea was too perfect, and when I looked back, I realized that the person who had this idea at that time was undoubtedly the stupidest person in sight.
In this way, three people with evil intentions participate in an inexplicable gambling game, and launch their own crazy round-up of prey on the gambling table. Li Xiaojie was just as I thought, there was no big move in that week-long period, he didn't need to listen to others reject him again, and he would not easily give up his love for ten thousand years. Zhao Yi began to move in the direction of Xu Yan from time to time on the second day after the plan began, and it was obvious that the external force had a positive effect on him.
Just when everyone thought that I would launch an offensive against Lin Chuxue, I unexpectedly turned the direction of the attack to Xu Yan's body, Li Xiaojie didn't react, and so did Zhao Yi, and the next few days completely became the moment of charge between me and Zhao Yi, which had nothing to do with Li Xiaojie, and Lin Chuxue was not involved. A 3v2 turned into a 2v1, something that no one but me expected.
After the next few classes, I will show up at Xu Yan's desk on time, her seat is not far from me, but there are only one or two people in between, for me that is a unique advantage, as the so-called near the water first gets the moon.
Almost everyone can see that I am trying to pursue Xu Yan, although I don't mention falling in love, but the ambiguous atmosphere can be felt by everyone around, and in that short period of time, I used almost all the flirting skills I have learned in my life, using all my strength, for fear that the other party will not feel my enthusiasm, and the area we try to contact will often reveal the original scene of harmony with Lin Chuxue.
Zhao Yi is too cold compared to him, it's not that he is not good enough, it's just that the opponent is too tough, he wouldn't have thought that I, who had been with him for a long time, would one day be promoted to become his rival in love, and for a long time after that, our relationship was not as calm as before, in the face of love, men are the same.
That gamble didn't last for a week, I don't know who in the class leaked the news, the whole class knew about the bet about the three of us, and everyone was circulating the disdainful behavior of these three people, more about me and Zhao Yi, because Li Xiaojie didn't choose to be in the same boat with us from beginning to end. Xu Yan also heard those rumors, in an afternoon's leisure time, she walked to my desk with a disdainful face, picked up the book on the table and slapped it on the table, said a word of fun and left, I can see how angry she was when she was played, but I don't know how to explain, as if I accidentally hurt someone, or on purpose, for a moment I felt like a scumbag.
After that incident, there were no more scandals about me and Lin Chuxue in the class, just as I expected, when a bigger rumor appeared, that small rumor naturally broke itself, but although I resolved our original crisis, I also created a bigger crisis. There is a saying among the girls that it is okay to be friends with Ye Fan, and they can't fall in love. I finally ruined the reputation I had maintained for a long time. Zhao Yi didn't get anything in that game, but Li Xiaojie didn't do anything but got the highest evaluation, saying that he was a real good man, wishful thinking as always, and in the end, only he was the real winner.
Lin Chuxue is still as cold and silent as ever, that incident did not improve our relationship, my character problems have caused a worse impact, the eyes can't deceive people, I can see her disgust with me during that time, in that unpleasant atmosphere I did another stupid thing, and asked a word that directly ended our relationship: "Li Xiaojie is so good to you, why don't you agree to him?" ”
Angered by my question, she replied, "You have to take care of it." ”
Back to a look that I still have palpitations in my heart.
After the last harsh words, she moved out of her seat, not wanting to stay by my side for a moment.
There was an exclusive seat next to the lectern, and occasionally some disobedient students would be arranged, and the substitute teachers were used to different faces appearing in that seat, so they were not surprised by her presence.
I also had a temper, and left her place in the first row a few classes after she moved out, again without anyone's permission. It wasn't until a class later that the head teacher found that the position of the first row at the door had changed, and he did not question it face to face with the mentality of a person who had come over, but put forward a plan to set up a study group in a class a few days later, and readjusted the seating pattern in the class.
