Chapter 17: College Crushes Never Dare to Mention
Early in the morning, Su Muan got dressed and picked up the transparent document bag containing the registration form and copies of the transcript, and went out to the registration office of the law school office building.
She walked along the path, and there were many bicycles coming and going on the road.
She suddenly heard the exclamations, surprises and praises of the girls around her!
Su Mu'an followed everyone's gaze - a boy was riding a bicycle, without holding the handlebars, and was moving at a steady pace not far in front of Su Mu'an.
That slow speed made Su Muan sure that he was not in a hurry to sign up at all, but on purpose.
Every time he passed by a pedestrian, he would smile and ask, "Where are you going to school?" Anxious?
Play for a while, huh?
Not far behind, a group of sneaky boys took pictures with mobile phone videos. Su Muan was even more sure that he lost the bet, and people deliberately came to see him make a fool of himself.
She thought about it and laughed out loud!
The boy turned his head and saw a pair of smiling eyes, and with a crooked hand, he fell down with a click!
The little brothers clapped their hands and coaxed. Su Muan grinned awkwardly and fled the scene quickly.
I thought to myself that this is not to blame her, she didn't do anything because he fell on his own!
She walked too quickly, and when she looked up, she found that she had deviated from the direction of law school and walked to the small supermarket in front of the office building. She suddenly felt a little thirsty, so she went in to buy water.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Shen Liunian.
Su Muan was even afraid to look up! He was scared when he heard what she said.
It's been so long to avoid her, even as if there is no such person as her!
Since that Shen Liunian went to Nancheng to find her!
She had been in college for a year, and this was the first time she had seen him.
They grabbed the same bottle of water - in fact, Su Mu'an did it on purpose, she didn't know where she got the guts, and she reached out before she could figure it out.
However, Shen Liunian just apologized and let go, grabbing another bottle
Turning away, looking at her eyes, it seems that she doesn't know!
By the time she smiled panickedly and said, "It's okay," he had already turned and walked towards the payment office. She didn't even hear his apology clearly, but logically judged that it should be a "I'm sorry".
It turned out that he didn't know her. I really don't know.
Three years made him forget her, no longer remember,
It turns out that the crush is doomed from the moment he says it!
Is he with that person?
In her three years of high school, she guessed countless times that he would come to her the next day. Wait, the third day is here, the fourth is here!
It's a pity that I didn't come for a month, two months, a year, two years, or three years!
She grinned at the freezer, couldn't open it, just grinned again, and finally laughed.
Perhaps it was the first time she had taken the initiative to greet him—albeit in the back.
The cashier shook her finger in front of her eyes before she came to her senses and quickly handed the water out of her hand.
It was the first time she had met him since they were separated, and her heart couldn't stop beating, and all she could hear was plop plop!
The water couldn't be unscrewed in her hand for a long time, and she walked to the front of the law school building, her left and right palms were red and red, and the tiger mouth of her right hand was imprinted with the fine vertical stripes of the bottle cap, and she still couldn't take a sip.
I don't know if she's too little strength or too nervous
It was already nine o'clock when I came out of the law school after completing the formalities, and the sun was the hottest time, like a moth to a fire, knowing that I couldn't do it, but I still wanted to get closer!
Su Mu'an looked at the water in his hand as he walked, raised his head again, and returned to the supermarket in front of the office building.
She smiled dumbly, and glanced in the direction of the door, and at a glance, she saw a person in a white dress with loose hair, very beautiful, and it was difficult not to pay attention.
What's even more eye-catching is the people around her.
Su Mu'an froze on his face because of a self-deprecating smile.
Su Mu'an, wearing a black striped shirt, with his hands in his pockets, facing the girl expressionlessly, stood on the steps condescendingly. The girl grabbed him by the sleeve and didn't know what she was talking about, and looked like she was deadlocked.
What kind of fate is this? Did you deliberately let her die? Tell her that her ridiculous crush can be over? Going around and around, I saw him again.
Su Mu'an's chest felt suffocated in an instant
Then, without hesitation, he took a deep breath and walked over, lowered his head and pretended not to see the good show in front of him, bumped into the girl's shoulder on the crowded steps, and then raised his head to make a very surprised appearance and said, "Oh, I'm so sorry." ”
She must be crazy. What is she doing?
Su Mu'an quickly picked up at this time: "Shen Liunian? ”
Shen Liunian replied that it was me!
Shen Liunian immediately smiled and said to the girl: "I have something to say to my classmates, you go back first, and I'll talk about it later."
It can be seen that the self-esteem that this girl had just screwed on Shen Liunian's cuffs was withdrawn when another person of the same sex appeared, she paused, restrained her expression, and said with a smile: "Well, then let's talk about it another day, and I also sent you Senior Brother Chen's form." ”
It is estimated that the preface of this sentence does not match the afterword, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on Shen Liunian's face. The girl turned to leave, her head slightly raised with a little natural arrogance, and her eyes did not glance at Su Mu'an.
Maybe in her eyes, such an insignificant girl is not worth a glance at her!
Su Muan looked back at Shen Liunian after she walked away, smiled and said, "That, shouldn't you thank me?" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she wanted to bite her tongue off. Calm down, Su Muan, what's wrong with you? Stabilization!
He doesn't know you anymore, what are you doing?
Shen Liunian looked a little surprised, but Su Muan was glad to see that the other party did not choose to pretend to be stupid, but nodded generously and said, "Then please drink coffee." Just when I thank you. ”
This is Shen Liunian.
But what Shen Liunian didn't know was that she couldn't drink coffee products! Allergies!
So she can't panic either.
Even if you can't drink it, don't miss it!
She wanted to see if he knew she was allergic! He knew it before
Su Muan nodded: "Then I'm sorry." ”
I just didn't seem to be happy.
Maybe it's because her long-awaited encounter with him in college is too fake and contrived.
And he doesn't remember her, but it doesn't look like a fake!
He looked at her like a stranger, stunned and surprised!
Don't think about it, she told herself as she walked, as if it had been a chance encounter between him and her—but the time she had been preparing for the chance encounter was indeed too long.
She resolutely followed his pace, turned around too quickly and bumped into Shen Liunian, hurriedly apologized, lowered her head and pulled up her broken hair, her fingers touched her left earlobe, and it was terrifyingly hot.
When sitting in the café, Su Muan was a little reserved. She ran her fingers through her hair, her back kept straight, felt a little stiffer, moved her buttocks, and finally found a relaxed position on the upholstery sofa. After this set of actions, he hurriedly raised his head and smiled at him, but what he saw was Shen Liunian distracted by the tea coaster on the table.
Su Mu'an's smile froze on her face, she felt a little embarrassed, and immediately turned her head to avoid the dazzling sunlight shining in from the side.
Even if you rack your brains, you can't break the silence. What should she say at such a time? It's not that no one has chased her, it's not that she hasn't chatted and eaten with boys freely, but at this moment, Shen Liunian is on the other side.
On the opposite side is Shen Liunian. He's no longer the childhood sweetheart, he's forgotten her for a long time, and he doesn't remember her anymore.
It all came so suddenly, it was really unexpected, even though it was caused by herself.
Shen Liunian recovered from his wandering mind and said calmly, "By the way, you...... Know me? My name is Su Mu'an and I am also a freshman. ”
He introduced himself to her. For the third time in his life, he introduced himself to her.
The first time was too old for her to look back.
The second time was official and official, but it wasn't just against her.
It was the anniversary celebration of the sophomore year of high school, and he spoke on behalf of the students as a student representative. The self-introduction said: "Hello everyone, my name is Shen Liunian, and I am from the second year of high school. ”
At all the stylized and lengthy opening and closing ceremonies from primary school to the present, the student representatives made generous speeches mechanically, and the pre-written manuscripts turned the pages with a sigh, but only this sentence could not be turned in Su Mu'an's heart. As a student on duty, she stood in the shade of the stage, unable to see the owner of the voice, but the speaker was behind her, and the young man's clear and deep voice rang in her ears unexpectedly. She grabbed the railing beside her in a panic, gently lifted her breath, and then lowered her head amid the excited whispers that rang out from the audience, her face always faint and expressionless.
She thought he would wait for him to be on duty, but all she could see was his cold expression!
"I know you." She nodded.
"Oh, really?"
Should she go on and say how she met? Say he's good, famous, and everyone knows him? If it's such a flattery, he'll be happy to listen to it.
Su Muan seemed to have nothing to say after contributing an opening statement, but it seemed that he didn't find this kind of scene uncomfortable, let alone bothering to find a topic, just looked out the window leisurely, and the leisure in his eyes was in stark contrast to Su Muan's pretentiousness just now.
That touch of leisure suddenly stung Su Mu'an, and the faint pain that had been faint for so many years became acute at this moment. How long will you have to be afraid?
I've already missed it once, so do I have to miss it a second time?
She put down her glass, cleared her throat, and said, "I heard of you in high school, but I rarely saw you.
I, like many people around me, know people's names, but never know them, and the names don't match the faces. However, you're really famous, and when you walk by, you hear people shouting, 'Look, that's Shen Liunian' – so I know you. ”
Shen Liunian smiled, showed his good-looking teeth, and said, "Yes, I am like this too." In the same school for three years, I will be familiar with each other no matter what, and sometimes even two people will suddenly talk because of something, such as stepping on each other's feet on the bus, and borrowing a little from a stranger who looks familiar when I have no change, or ......"
"Or when the cafeteria is eating or taking water in class, it accidentally spills on the other party, and you don't know each other if you don't fight." Shen Liunian picked it up, and she saw Su Mu'an's leisurely expression frozen there, which was all expected by her.
Don't fight, don't know each other. Just like you and your ex-girlfriend.
This sentence was even more lethal to Shen Liunian than Su Mu'an imagined.
She didn't know why she said that, knowing that it would probably turn him off. However, when the words came out, seeing his reaction, she suddenly felt a little happy, darkly happy, and revenge was as if she had succeeded.
Revenge on what? Because just now he was more free and easy than his cramped self?
Revenge for forgetting himself? Obviously he hasn't changed from before, but he doesn't remember?
Su Muan couldn't tell.
She rubbed the coffee cup in her hand, her thoughts drifting farther and farther away.
