The news that Xie Ning, a member of the Department of Philosophy, had openly confessed to Colonel Jiang had spread around the campus of Qing University for several days.

Xie Ning hid from Jiang Huaining for a few days, didn't go to him, and at noon on a sunny day, she appeared in front of him again, and she had already sorted out her emotions, when the confession of that night did not exist.

She took the dinner plate and put it opposite Jiang Huaining, and sat down calmly: "It's late, there are no ribs."

Hu Shengdong opened his mouth, and the half of the lotus root that his teeth bit fell on the table, and he even felt that he was not as strong as Xie Ning's psychological quality: "Ah, I beat it, do you want to eat it?"

"Thank you." Xie Ning took a piece of pork ribs and nibbled on it with her hand.

Her gaze stopped on Jiang Huaining's face for a long time, and her heart was still throbbing for a while. She thought she was fine, but she was sad when she saw him.

She pretended to be calm: "Hey, Jiang Huaining, you don't know me anymore?"

Jiang Huaining looked at her, paused for a second, and looked away: "What I said that day was serious, I didn't ...... you."

"Stop." Xie Ning stopped, "I haven't confessed to you now, you don't need to rush to reject me."

Jiang Huaining shut up and didn't talk about this topic, he just wanted to finish his meal quietly and then go to the library to do his homework.

Hu Shengdong thought that Xie Ning had given up, and was about to tell a joke to ease the atmosphere, but who knew that Xie Ning said amazingly: "I still like you, I will always like you, you don't accept it now, anyway, I won't give up."

Hu Shengdong was speechless.

Xie Ning wiped her oil-stained fingers and muttered to herself, "Why didn't I choose the computer science department in the first place, I regret it, I should choose the same major as you, maybe I can get close to the water and get the moon first."

Hu Shengdong said, "You just pretend. I don't believe that you are the one who gave up your future ideals for love, that's not Xie Ning."

She's bold, she's messy, she's willful, but she's never reckless. She is a girl who adheres to the principle of "loving your neighbor before loving yourself" to the end.

The acting was exposed, and Xie Ning pouted: "You know me."

Most of the eyes of the canteen were focused on Jiang Huaining's table, Xie Ning didn't care about being watched, she could also think of what those boys and girls would talk about her behind her back. may say that she is shameless, Jiang Huaining has rejected her, she is not interesting, and she is shy and comes up to show people jokes.

She felt that it didn't matter, as long as those words were not heard by her own ears, she could do it without pain. She was educated by her parents since she was a child, and she fought for what she wanted, and after fighting for it, she still couldn't get it, so forget it, it means that this thing doesn't belong to you. People must have momentum, but they can't be stubborn, and those who love to drill the horns of the bull will not end well.

Jiang Huaining only rejected her once, not to the point of letting her go completely.

"I'm sorry, I've never seen such a cheeky girl when I'm so big, I didn't see that Jiang Huaining was too lazy to take care of her. I really don't know what she thinks, I don't want a boy's face for the sake of it. If I were her mother, I'd be." Half a restaurant away, the girl pestle her friends around her, seeking recognition, "You said yes, right?"

Su Xin looked over there, Jiang Huaining's cold side face was really eye-catching in a group of people, and if he glanced at it casually, his gaze would automatically lock onto him. She disagreed with her roommate's assessment: "Xie Ning is quite brave."

The girl's face was ugly: "What are you brave, all public confessions that don't know the other party's intentions are moral kidnapping and hooliganism."

Su Xin stopped talking, the three views were different, and the argument would only end in red face.

A girl who does this for the sake of the person she likes, no matter what, she should not be ridiculed and scolded shamelessly. She just showed her love and didn't do anything wrong.

It was Jiang Huaining's refusal that put her on the fire, if he accepted, she believed that the story would become a good story, and no one would say that the girl who publicly confessed was morally kidnapped, but would only praise her for her courage to pursue love.

Of course, Jiang Huaining is not wrong to reject her, and if she doesn't like it, of course she has to refuse.

Su Xin's friend stopped talking about Xie Ning and mentioned another thing: "Jiang Huaining may like you, you forgot, he watched you for a long time in the restaurant outside the school that day."

Su Xin closed his gaze and suppressed his restless heart: "Don't talk nonsense."

"I'm not wrong." The girl swore an oath, "I don't believe you haven't inquired about him, many girls confess to him, and the big beauty of Communication University, he hasn't even looked at people, he's dragged and cold." He must mean something else if he wants to look at you more."

Su Xin shook his head and took a bite of the food: "It's not someone else, and it won't be me."

With these words, she admitted her good impression of Jiang Huaining in disguise.

Shen Li's Beicheng University is not far from Qing University, and Xie Ning confessed Jiang Huaining at the welcome party, and she knew it from others.

Recently, she has been anxious about changing her major, checked a bunch of information, and consulted a counselor, and the process was more cumbersome than she imagined. Xie Ning's incident came into her ears, which made her already depressed heart worse, even if she heard that Jiang Huaining didn't accept it, she was still blocked.

After spending half a day in the library on the weekend, she packed up her things and went to Tsinghua University because she was distraught and didn't finish her study plan.

Shen Li didn't come to find Jiang Huaining, she wanted to find Xie Ning.

In the past few days, the news about Xie Ning has spread to everyone, and even without her contact information, it is not difficult to meet her.

Shen Li waited under the steps in front of the library for a few minutes, Xie Ning came out with both hands in her pockets, saw that the person looking for her was her, gave her a roll of her eyes, turned around and left.

"Xie Ning." Shen Li saw her.

Xie Ning couldn't pretend to be blind, and walked down the steps slowly: "What are you looking for me?"

"Let's find a place to talk." Shen Li asked her, "Do you have time?" I'll tell you something about Jiang Huaining."

Xie Ning didn't want to pay attention to her, but when she mentioned Jiang Huaining, it was like pinching her life, and she couldn't resist the desire to snoop: "Wait for me."

She went back to the library to pack her things and came out with her bag on her back.

The two found a café outside of school where they could talk. Xie Ning leaned back in the chair, and the dark brown leather jacket with a suede collar on her body made her look delicate and heroic, with the temperament of a female warrior. She stirred the coffee with a small spoon, and her eyes didn't look at Shen Li: "Can you say it now?"

"Jiang Huaining has someone he likes." Shen Li's voice was soft, under the banner of being good for her, "You will not have any results if you entangle him like this."

She didn't lie, Jiang Huaining does have someone she likes, and he likes Lu Zhu.

Xie Ning looked up and laughed exaggeratedly as if she had heard a big joke, and her sudden laughter attracted everyone around her to look over.

Shen Li twisted her eyebrows, her reaction was not what she expected: "You don't believe it?"

"It's not a question of believe it or not." Xie Ning touched the corner of her lower lip and almost burst into laughter, "I want to ask you from what position you are telling me this, it's like a psychopath. Jiang Huaining has someone he likes, what does it matter to me, as long as he is still single, I have the right to chase him, and when he really falls in love one day, it is not too late for you to tell me again. Ah, I was wrong, even if he is in love, you are not qualified to point fingers in front of me, who are you?"

Shen Li had never heard such harsh words, and in an instant, the blood flowed backwards all over his body, the fingers holding the coffee cup tightened, and the joints of his bones turned white.

"Why, I poked you in the tube of your lungs, didn't you?" Xie Ning has always spoken straightforwardly, she will retain a little gentle taste in front of Jiang Huaining, for a person she is not used to, she is unwilling to give face, "You won't rely on this trick to get rid of his rival, right? If you like him, you will confess, and those with dark minds will embarrass other girls who like him."

She didn't take a sip of coffee and left directly, which was a waste of time.

Shen Li chased her out and said to her loudly, "Whether you believe it or not, he just has someone he likes, and I want to persuade you not to waste your efforts."

Xie Ning replied to her, "Who are you? When you become his girlfriend, come and yell at me!"

Shen Li stood in the cold wind and suddenly burst into tears.

Every word of Xie Ning's words was like a spike wrapped in ice, piercing her heart.

She wanted to use Lu Zhu to force Xie Ning back, she was afraid that Jiang Huaining would one day really be moved by Xie Ning's fiery enthusiasm. Her friend said that it is difficult for a boy to refuse the kind of girl who is flamboyant and bold in pursuit. The fierce woman is afraid of pestering, and vice versa.

On weekend afternoons, the Student Council organizes its first meeting and requires all members to be present. Lu Zhu and He Shiyan went together and met a lot of new friends.

After the meeting, it was almost dinner time, and the two ate spicy fragrant pot in the cafeteria.

Someone in the dormitory group asked them to help bring food, and Lu Zhu saw it: "I have to trouble you alone, I will go to the club in a while, and I will not go back to the dormitory."

He Shiyan wiped his mouth clean: "Jazz Dance Club?"

"Hmm."

"Tsk, I haven't seen you dance, I can't imagine it."

He Shiyan pestled her chin and looked at Lu Zhu, she was the kind of gentlemanly look, wearing a soft long skirt and sitting by the window of the library to read quietly was in line with her personality.

Lu Zhu also finished eating, took his bag and prepared to leave: "I'll show you when I practice, I'm still in the stage of uncoordinated limbs."

He Shiyan laughed: "Then I'll wait."

The two parted at the door of the cafeteria, and Lu Zhu went to the venue of the jazz dance club, bypassed the back of the dormitory building of the flight academy, and crossed a road.

An orange shadow suddenly popped out of the grass on the side of the road, stumbling Lu Zhu's steps, she stopped and looked down, it was the orange cat she had fed several times.

Lu Zhu squatted down and touched its head: "Oh no, I didn't bring you cat food today."

The first time she saw the cat was on the way to the bathhouse, where she was eating a grilled sausage and threw the remaining half of it away. Later, she encountered it again, and she went to the supermarket to buy ham sausage for it. She has never had a cat, and she heard Tao Nianci, who has a cat at home, say that cats can't eat ham sausages, so she bought a bag of cat food and fed it a little when she met it.

She didn't carry a schoolbag today, only a canvas bag, and cat food was in the bag.

"Give it this."

A slender hand appeared in sight, pinching a box of canned tuna. Lu Zhu raised his head to look at the owner of his hand, and Chen Jialin handed the can forward.
