The next morning, after eating the steamed buns and a box of fried dumplings on the bench outside the convenience store, I couldn't help but burp and pick up the satchel that I had almost forgotten to hang on the back of the chair and walk to school again.

At this time, the sun is slowly rising, and if you look up, you can already see some sunlight. Although it is still obscured by the clouds from time to time, it is not as cold as when I first went out.

"Chihiro! —"At this moment, I suddenly heard someone calling out to me, and the moment I raised my head to look left and right, I was gently patted on the right shoulder—Izumi's gaze crossed his shoulder, and he stared at me with a smile. "What a coincidence, I saw you at a glance." She said; While throwing the remaining half of the xiaolongbao in his hand into his mouth and chewing it.

Then he put on a very satisfied expression.

"Early."

I smiled at her and said hello briefly. "Morning!" After a while, I got a very spiritual answer. Then, as a matter of course, the two of us walked away together. "Actually, I saw you buying breakfast at a convenience store across the street."

She said with some smugness.

I nodded slightly, and didn't pick up the stubble. "Something?" Izumi poked her head out from the side, a little confused, and lowered her voice a little and asked. "Didn't I get scolded before?"

"You mean the time you were called to the office before?"

I nodded, and couldn't help but sigh. "And then I wonder if I want to try to do something—" and sighed. "What's going on? Need some advice? Izumi took out another xiaolongbao and took a bite.

Ask as you chew.

"Actually, I've already been advised—"

As soon as I finished speaking, Izumi looked stunned for a moment, "Who?" What about the advice? Immediately after she swallowed the xiaolongbao, she asked with interest. I don't know—" Suddenly, my answer made her face seem to be full of question marks, "Don't you know each other?" ”

"Hmm. But I felt like she knew me. ”

I thought about it for a moment and told her the conclusion very seriously. "Judging from what you just said, the other party is a girl, right?" I nodded, a little frustrated. "Oh?" In an instant, Izumi's voice became a little excited, and his gaze at me became enthusiastic. "What's wrong?"

Suddenly, I was a little nervous to be stared at by her so unabashedly. So, I quickly turned my face away and pretended to look at a rice field next to me. To be honest, there is some weakness. "It can't be the girl who liked you before and was rejected by you, right?"

"This alone is impossible!"

I didn't even think about it, and I couldn't help but feel a little disgusted when I looked at her expression.

"Really? All right. "As we spoke, we have arrived at the school gate, and the number of students here has gradually increased." Izumi, Chihiro—! At this moment, Shion appeared from the other end of the line of sight and walked towards us with an unhurried wave.

Lola also walked with her this way.

"Oh!"

Izumi made a very happy voice, and I said hello. Then the four of them came to the classroom together...... As soon as he put down his satchel, the teacher walked in. It can be seen that she is in a bad mood today. So, the classroom fell silent all of a sudden.

However, even so, I couldn't listen to the content at all, it was all in the left ear and out of the right ear. As a result, he was mercilessly knocked on the head several times — "I'm sorry. After that, I simply lay down on the table.

At noon, thinking that I could finally relax, I turned the pen in my hand; While going to the cafeteria for lunch. At this time, "Chihiro, come out for a moment—" She quickly disappeared into the hallway after leaving this sentence.

Sighing, I had to hurry up and catch up, "What's the matter?" Teacher? I followed her to the office without saying a word, and I asked. She looked up at me for a moment and said, "Chihiro, do you want to join the club?" ”

"I'm kind of an advisor to the Literary Society."

Immediately afterwards, he added a sentence later. "Why?" I asked, somewhat surprised, "Why are you all of a sudden?" Xia Fan didn't seem to expect to be asked, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It's just that you seem to be bothered by something, if it's because of what I said before, then I apologize." ”

"No, it won't—"

I hurriedly waved my hand and told her not to care. "I know you're worried about me, but now you really haven't—" I didn't expect to be halfway through my sentence before her voice drowned out again, "Do you want to keep going like this?" ”

Xia Fan couldn't help but sigh, and said with a slight frown of some anger and anxiety. In an instant, the atmosphere between the two of us seemed to be stiff. "No, though not, I don't know what I can do now—"

At this time, I faced the face that was really worried about me, and I didn't want to continue to hide my true thoughts. "If you drill the horns of this kind of thing, you can't figure it out." Her gaze softened a little as she looked at me.

The tone slowly became softer.

"Understood?"

I was instantly moved, and I couldn't help but think, "If someone had said this to me at that time, maybe—" I couldn't help but want to cry as I thought about it. I had to gently rub my eyes with my hands, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's fine, it's just a little itchy. Maybe you accidentally got sand in your eyes, right? "Then hurry up and use these words to fool the test." Thank you, teacher. Then I bowed earnestly to her sitting in the chair.

"If it helps, you'll be fine – and don't suddenly say thank you so seriously. It's not a big deal! Xia Fan pretended to cough lightly a few times before correcting me. Caring for you is what I should do, isn't it? ”

"Because I'm your student?"

Xia Fan sighed, as if he was a little dissatisfied with what I had just teased, "Otherwise, is there any other reason?" Then, glaring mercilessly. However, it seems that he did not get angry.

"Actually, I'll be looking for you, also because Lola talked to me before—"

"Lola?"

I didn't even blink several times because I didn't expect it at all. "Yes, she's worried about you, but she didn't know how to comfort you to make you feel better, so she came to ask me."

After speaking, Xia Fan's expression finally relaxed completely.

There was a smile too. "If you have any troubles, remember to talk to someone. It's also important, you know? Then she quietly pulled her chair closer, and gently reminded me again. Remember to thank her later, and don't forget—"

"Got it, thank you very much."

As I spoke, I couldn't help but thank you again. Then he returned to the hallway...... The moment I stepped into the classroom, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "Looks like it's going to turn out pretty well!" As soon as I returned to my seat and sat down, Izumi came up to me and said with a smile on his face.

Lola was also happy to observe my face, and in an instant the two of us were very close. To be honest, I'm embarrassed to be stared at by her like this. I could even clearly feel that my face was getting hotter. "That, thank you, Lola—"

In order not to be seen by her, I hurriedly spoke. At the same time, avoiding her passionate gaze. "I didn't think you'd be shy—" Izumi said; While patting my back with his hand.

Although I was not convinced in an instant, to be honest, I was in a similar mood to her now. "Chihiro—" At this time, Shion suddenly called out to me at this time. — She beckoned down the hallway. "Come on."

At this moment, I was also trying to get out, and her presence happened to make me breathe a sigh of relief.

"What's the matter?"

So, I made my way to the hallway as fast as I could. "After school, can you accompany me to a place a little?" Shion looked at me and said very seriously. "No problem." I didn't think much about it before I agreed.

Then after school, I found her at the school gate, "Where are you going?" "Aster walks in front, I quickly follow her, asking as I go." Karaoke. As soon as she finished speaking, I was stunned for a long time, and then asked with some curiosity: "Why is it there?" ”

"Because I want to change my mood." As she spoke, we had come to where she was, and I looked inside, and when I was hesitating whether to go in, I saw her outstretched hand, "What a daze, hurry up—"

So, I had no choice but to give up and obediently walk in with her hand in hand. "There are usually a lot of couples here, and I'm a little embarrassed to go in alone." On the way, she also explained why she asked me to come along.

"Well—" At this moment, many people who walked past us were holding each other's hands, and it seemed as if they were really a couple. In an instant, I laughed awkwardly in my heart a few times, while praying not to be recognized.

Then he and Shion walked into the third room at the end of the hallway.

It's a red-carpeted room, with a few blue-gray lazy sofas against the wall, and a rectangular table in the middle, which is very large, but doesn't take up much space.

Shion was already sitting on the couch, and then gently patted the place next to her with her hand and asked me to sit down too. "Well, I don't know how to sing—" I told her as soon as I sat down. "Don't worry, I'm not looking forward to it. Actually, I'm very grateful to be able to come with me. ”

With that, she picked up the microphone and the machine for ordering songs.

Then, he sang naturally and skillfully...... Gradually, there were expressions that I had never seen before.
