Chapter 10: The Only "You"
After the mid-term exams, first-year students began to unload their heavy burdens and actively prepare for Christmas, the first foreign festival in college.
There is a not-so-good phenomenon among young people today, that is, they like to pursue new things, such as foreign festivals. Christmas has always been a national carnival in all major universities, and Sili's university is no exception.
As in previous years, there are still three or two days before the festival. The campus is already full of festive atmosphere, with roses and apples sold along the road, elk headdresses, and Santa Claus cosplay.
After feeling the smell of the festival on campus, Sili returned to the dormitory. In the dormitory, the two brothers are playing mobile games. And Lu Ping, who has always been dead, did not stay in the dormitory today. In the eyes of the dormitory brothers, Lu Ping is a very honest boy, so honest that a tall and powerful person doesn't know what to say when he sees his sister, and sometimes he is often shy. For this reason, the girls in the class always bullied her and asked him to help bring this and buy that, and she became an errand runner. However, Lu Ping didn't care at all, and was happy to help. In addition, in his life, there are only classes left, playing ball and staying in the dormitory to watch American dramas.
"Good boy, is this Boss Lu going to sell flowers to make money? Why haven't you come back yet?" Zhang Wei saw Si Li come in, and teased in a tone of waiting for Lu Ping to come back.
"I didn't see him on the road." Si Li changed his usual temperament of loving and pretending, and just replied lightly. It seems that Si Li is still affected by the events of the midterm exam, after all, how much he wants to figure it out as soon as possible.
"Why have you been weird lately? Poor? Zhang Wei saw that Si Li had something on his mind, and disgusted him in his yin and yang way.
"Yes, people like you who use money to solve their troubles will not understand the pain of people whose troubles cannot be solved." When it comes to yin and yang disgusting people, Si Li ranks second, and no one dares to rank first.
"Are you waiting for Ah Ping?" Seeing that Zhang Wei was disgusted, Si Li quickly changed the topic.
"The dormitory brother didn't come back, and he was very worried." Zhang Wei, who has the face of a saint, is so "handsome".
"He's worried. He asked Ah Ping to bring supper, just hungry. Wu Di, who had just finished a mobile game competition, debunked Zhang Wei's carefully constructed image of benevolence, righteousness and morality.
"Did you bring it to me?" At the mention of food, Si Li became intrigued.
"You're very curable." Zhang Wei dropped his phone, stood up from the bed and stretched. "I asked Ah Ping to buy some wine and side dishes, so that I could study and study with everyone and help him solve a little problem." Zhang Wei, who has always been lazy, is inexplicably diligent today, moving stools and building boards to assemble the small wine table by himself.
"What's going on? Does Boss Lu want us to negotiate the election of the next beautiful president tonight? Wu Di, who has always been known for his simplicity and kindness, is also disgusted today.
"What a life event! It's up to you. "Before anyone saw it, they heard it. Outside the door, Lu Ping's voice came.
"Boss, please take a seat." Sili saw that Lu Ping had a lot of things in his hand, and he also temporarily swept away the haze in his heart, returned to his original appearance, and pulled Lu Ping in with a wicked smile.
When the wine is full, raise a glass and drink. During the staggering of ideas, Si Li learned that Lu Ping liked a girl at work, and wanted to take this opportunity to ask everyone to help think of a way to make a successful confession on Christmas Eve.
"Who?" Wu Di was the first to speak.
"That's it...... Chi Yubei. Lu Ping held the disposable wine glass, scratched his head embarrassedly and said, the blush on his face was just like a slight drunkenness, and it was also like the shyness of his youth.
"What's going on? Are you still blushing? Seeing this, Zhang Wei leaned over and carefully observed Lu Ping's face.
", in fact, asking you is tantamount to asking in vain, aren't you all single dogs? Have you ever chased a girl? Lu Ping laughed at himself, but it could be seen that he was sincere to that girl, otherwise he would not have thought of asking others for advice and carefully prepared.
"You're wrong, Zhao Gongzi has a girlfriend. I ...... that day" Zhang Wei did not refute the label of his single dog, but he was "justified" to maintain Sili's "dignity".
"Don't talk nonsense, then my sister ......" Si Li, who was afraid of being misunderstood, interrupted Zhang Wei's memories.
"Brother, I respect you, do you recognize me as a brother-in-law?" Zhang Wei'er's skin is so thick today, maybe it's all due to wine.
"Can you shut up?" Silly was a little displeased.
"Gotta it, joking. You know his mate selection criteria, he wants a beautiful girl, and he recognizes your little sister's appearance. Wu Di saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he hurried to round the field.
"Haha, Zhao Gongzi! What a joke, I'm not open, I'm sorry. Fortunately, Zhang Wei was not drunk yet, and after realizing his mistake, he apologized with both hands.
"Anyway, you don't seem to be right lately, right?" Wu Di may have been angry that Si Li still couldn't get out of the psychological shadow recently, and deliberately stimulated him.
"It's nothing, isn't it going to help Mr. Lu solve problems today? That's a long way off! Punish for drinking! Si Li didn't want to tell everyone about Mu Qing too early, so she thought of a way to turn the topic back to Lu Ping's chasing sister.
"What do you think I'm going to do?" Lu Ping knew that Sili had always had a good relationship with the girls in the class, especially with the eldest sister in the class, Liu Muqing, who had a very "close" relationship. I should be able to get a good idea from him.
"yes, give me a way? Zhao Shao. Wu Di also thought of this key factor.
"I think so...... No, when you say that, shouldn't the most intimate person be Mr. Wei? He is the person in charge of the boys' side, and he often cooperates with Mu Qing to carry out the work of the class committee, so is there more opportunities for contact? Si Li was about to put forward his idea when he suddenly realized that he had been tricked, and quickly quibbled.
"How did this get to me? It turned out that you were appointed to come, and you pushed it yourself. You are a recognized psychological counselor for the girls in the class, and no one can envy your relationship. Zhang Wei also understood that he was tricked back by Si Li. Instead of pushing around in circles, it's better to hit the nail on the head.
"I ...... I plan to buy her flowers and apples, and then write a greeting card to express myself. How? Lu Ping, who did not participate in the blame-shifting link, seemed to have thought about it alone for a long time and put forward his own ideas.
"Isn't that a little low?" Even Wu Di, who has never been able to keep up with Internet buzzwords, felt that it was not possible, and Sili and Zhang Wei also nodded unanimously to indicate that this method was too traditional.
"What's going on?" When Lu Ping saw that his idea was rejected, he became anxious.
"If it's me, buy a ring with her name engraved on it, and ask the whole class to come out and confess it in person that day." Zhang Wei recounted his approach, closing his eyes and pretending to be pensive.
"You're going to take the money to get her to agree?" Wu Di knew for the first time that local tyrants were chasing girls, and he was a little envious.
"Pull it down, you who rely on your parents at home and your parents at school. Who can keep up? Si Li also expressed his disdain for this practice.
"Are you planning to skip the romantic relationship process and go straight to the door with the dowry?" Lu Ping also vetoed this approach.
"Otherwise, you can ask her out to go shopping and eat after class that day, this economic point." In everyone's eyes, Wu Di is a person who is not close to meat and does not understand meat, in addition to studying, he is sleeping, but today he can deeply integrate into this topic. Is it the wrong eye? Or is it the efficacy of wine?
"It's too sudden, it's not going to work." The timid Lu Ping did not approve of Wu Di's approach.
"Hey!" Seeing that everyone was discussing seriously, only Sili began to be in a daze, and Zhang Wei interrupted his loneliness.
"Uh-uh...... How so? Si Li came to her senses, very embarrassed.
"By the time you got your idea, what happened to you? You shouldn't be thinking about how to confess to Mu Qing, right? Zhang Wei was even more suspicious of Si Li. Since the midterm exam, Si Li has asked the girls in the class about Mu Qing everywhere. This has long been known in the folk shop for his love for Mu Qing.
"Nope. I think so. That's it! You know what she likes, right? Si Li was afraid that Zhang Wei would chase after that, so he could only make up confession methods indiscriminately.
"Yes. She had previously said at class events that she liked to listen to music. Lu Ping replied proudly.
"Do you order any musical instruments?"
"This ...... Not really, occasionally I just go to KTV to sing. Lu Ping was like a deflated balloon, powerless and unfocused.
"I don't communicate much with this girl. But I personally think so! Just personally think ha. I heard Xiao Mu say that Chi Yu likes surprise and romantic boys. You give her the whole show at the Christmas party in the class, singing or playing an instrument or something, and the three of us will set you up the atmosphere. The show is over, you have a confession, it should be done. Si Li said methodically, and helped Lu Ping use his mobile phone to check what songs were suitable for this performance.
"That's okay......"
"Yes, yes. Economical and environmentally friendly. ”
The little sister said that her brother was a prodigal son in love, and sure enough, the prodigal son was unusual. Si Li's approach was unanimously approved by the other two brothers.
"Yes, yes, but this singing?" At this time, Lu Ping began to be less confident in his singing skills again.
"We're with you, and I just want to sing these days. I ask everyone to sing, and I will help you make up for the evil. "The righteous Zhang Wei is so daring to act for his brother.
"Good! Done! Done! The same word "dry" and different tones reflect Lu Ping's determination, he wants to do it all at once!
After this banquet, everyone began to devote themselves to their respective roles and wholeheartedly helped the dormitory brothers to confess their actions.
In the blink of an eye, it's Christmas Eve.
In Si Li's view, this event is still the same old tune and no innovation in the university activities he knows: find a bigger classroom, clean up, set up the layout, and then get something to eat, and a whole show in one dormitory. That's all.
However, disgust is disgust. Si Li saw that the idea was decided by the class committee, and he didn't say much, so he hypocritically supported it.
But the dormitory is mediocre, and they have already made it nine times out of ten.
On Christmas Eve, night fell so fast......
This party was hosted by Mu Qing herself. On the stage, Mu Qing wore a long skirt, like a fairy. In the audience, Zhang Wei talked about her beauty with his head.
However, the strange thing was that Si Li, who was one of the active twin stars in the crowd, was quietly watching Mu Qing there.
Mu Qing's beauty and dignity may have already conquered the boys in the class, including Si Li.
On stage, Mu Qing also seemed to find Si Li's "loneliness".
"Now, it's the turn of the 1401 dormitory to perform......" Although the program of the Sili dormitory is the penultimate program of the talent show section, it does not give everyone the feeling of living like a year, but feels that time flies so quickly. No, it's time for them to come to power in the blink of an eye.
"Squad leader, our people are in a bit of a hurry and go out for a while. Can it be tuned to the last one. After hearing Mu Qing's report, Zhang Wei got up and explained.
The last show was performed by the girls in Mu Qing's dormitory, and they had to save the audience.
Today is Christmas Eve, a night of surprises, and a night of satisfaction for all men.
Dressed in ancient costumes and with long hair, Mu Qing was dancing.
Holding the pipa, half-covering his childish face, Xiao Mu played the sound of nature.
And Chi Yu and Cheng Yan are a roll of bamboo slips, whispering romantic poems.
The girls in Muqing's dormitory brought the impact of classical art and an ancient enjoyment. Compared with the programs prepared by the previous dormitory students, it is so attentive, delicate and perfect. To put it mildly, it's like the snow in spring and the people in the lower riba.
Maybe you can't blame anyone else, there is less rehearsal time reserved for everyone, and the main purpose of the event is to get together. It's not easy to get a few people in a dormitory to watch the lyrics and sing, rehearse a skit or do a few little magic tricks, etc. It can also be said that the artistic cells of the girls in Mu Qing's dormitory are strong enough to present such a wonderful program for you.
Everyone was still intoxicated with the show, and Sili and Zhang Wei didn't know when to sneak out of the classroom.
"That's all you decorate!" Outside the classroom, Zhang Wei ruthlessly complained about Lu Ping's dress. However, in Si Li's opinion, Lu Ping is handsome enough to become the protagonist tonight.
"I'm a little nervous!" At this time, Lu Ping could see the tension at a glance: his mouth was dry and cracked, and the shaking amplitude of his legs was so obvious.
"You're cold, aren't you? Don't be cowardly, tonight you have to be the brightest star in Sister Yu's eyes. Zhang Wei pressed Lu Ping's shoulder and kept cheering. Chi Yu, who Lu Ping pursues, is often called Sister Cheng Yu by him because he is older than Zhang Wei.
"Don't beep, it's time to hit the road." Si Li, who had been looking at his watch, reminded Lu Ping. Lu Ping hurriedly tidied up the clothes on his body again, and then muttered something while closing his eyes.
"Is your dorm room already?" At this time, Mu Qing, who had finished the performance, poked her head out and asked.
"Right now!" Zhang Wei replied while helping Lu Ping fix his hairstyle.
"What are you?" Seeing Mu Qing dressed like this by Lu Ping, Mu Qing tilted her head and walked out in confusion.
Si Li Mu Qing pulled aside, and secretly followed Mu Qing to talk about the plan for the next moment.
"Then I'll go in first, you guys hurry up and prepare." After listening to this, a smile appeared on Mu Qing's face. But the smile lasted less than half a second, and it turned into a seriousness with sadness. And all of this was captured by Silly.
After Sili and Lu Ping briefly sorted out the whole process, they went in with Zhang Wei to prepare.
"Below, please enjoy the program brought by the 1401 dormitory......"
As Mu Qing's curtain ended, music sounded in the classroom. Lu Ping straightened up and walked in confidently.
The performance in the Sili dormitory was a singing program, which was sung by Lu Ping, Zhang Wei played the drums, Sili played the guitar, and Wu Di was responsible for the work. The song sung is "The One" by Leehom Wang. For this show, Lu Ping soaked in KTV for three nights, and sang the single loop no less than 200 times.
The song is coming to an end, and the music is fading...... Suddenly, a multicolored beam of light lit up in front of the stage. The beam of light passed through the three people who were performing, and landed on the blackboard, gradually drawing Chi Yu as if he was smiling. The unaware students first briefly focused on Wu Di at the light source, and then exploded. A noisy environment, where cheers and chatters coexist. Gradually, however, the former has overpowered the latter.
"Confession...... Confession ......" At this time, Wu Di, the person in charge of the atmosphere group, suddenly coaxed.
"Confession ......"
"Confession ......"
……
In the crowd of people who stood up and coaxed, Chi Yu, who was sitting, was out of place with this scene. She was hanging her head. The people around her tried to push her, but she still sat still.
"I ...... I've never been in love, and I don't have any merits. Today's song is not for everyone, but for you. I don't sing very well, stupid, don't be surprised if I don't sing well. I...... I just wanted to express my ...... with this song I want you to be my only one. On the stage, Lu Ping poured out his heart. In the audience, the cheers were raised again and again like a wave.
"Together...... ...... together" The boys encouraged hard, and more and more classmates gathered around Chi Yu. And Cheng Yan, Mu Qing and Xiao Mu escaped from the center with interest. Chi Yu tried to hold them back, but in this scene it seemed that they were all in vain.
"I don't know when I fell in love with you, maybe it was when I saw you serious when I was hiding behind me in class every day, maybe it was the umbrella you held for me in front of the library that day, maybe it was the smile you gave me every time. Now I don't have anything, but I will give you all I have, and I will fight for everything for you......" Taking the flowers from Wu Di's hand, Lu Ping said emotionally as he walked towards Chi Yu. Reading between the lines, everyone felt that sincerity.
"Would you like to be my girlfriend?" Lu Ping, who walked up to Chi Yu, knelt down on one knee.
He looked at her, and she avoided him.
"Together...... ...... together" cheers became even more energetic.
"I ......" Chi Yu sighed and stammered out the words.
"I'm willing to be what you want to be for you." Lu Ping changed his nervousness just now and confidently approached Chi Yu.
"I ...... I do not know. Chi Yu finally finished one sentence. But with that, she lay down on the table and buried her head in it.
The cheers came to an abrupt end, and the scene fell silent and awkward. It seems, he was rejected by her?
Suddenly, Chi Yu stretched out his hand and took the flowers from Lu Ping's hand. In an instant, the surrounding classmates boiled again.
Lu Ping knelt on his legs, leaned his face tightly against Chi Yu's face, and stroked Chi Yu's head with his hand. He had a happy look on his face.
And she, through the cracks, everyone seems to see her tears.
The cheers echoed through the classroom again. Everyone consciously dispersed and began to pack their things and flee the scene. Because the students understand that although this place is vast, there is no need for their existence.
Wu Di helped Zhang Wei clean up the utensils and clean up, while Si Li was looking for someone everywhere.
Outside the wall separated from the place where happiness has just been experienced, the lights of a hundred schools are slowly extinguishing.
After searching for five minutes, she finally found the man in the hallway at the back of the classroom. She was leaning against the windowsill in the same posture as Sili and looking at the sky outside.
"What's wrong with you?" Si Li asked softly.
"Oh, why are you here? I'm fine, I'll rest. When they are gone, I'll go in and clean up. Mu Qing was a little surprised when she saw Si Li's arrival, and wiped her eyes.
"Are you crying?" Si Li took the opportunity to come to Mu Qing's side and also leaned on the windowsill. However, he doesn't look at the sky, only at her.
"I didn't ...... Didn't ......" Mu Qing subconsciously wiped her eyes again. This clumsy performance, Si Li wanted to laugh a little.
"If you have something, say it, don't keep doing this." Si Li shifted her gaze from Mu Qing's body to the night sky.
"Good...... Good...... I'm fine! Mu Qing was still quibbling.
Si Li finally didn't hold back and smiled. Mu Qing looked at it puzzled, he was still smiling. Then, he walked back to the classroom, leaving Mu Qing with a questioning face. However, Si Li knew that she had relented.
Back in the classroom, Slim found that everyone had left. He took out a card from his arms and placed it next to Mu Qing's bag. Then he turned on all the lights in the classroom, picked up the garbage, and left.
