Neon Weather Section 72
"Then you waitβ"
Ye Wanbai said that she was about to clamp other things in her bowl again, You Xuezhen hurriedly protected the bowl, and the uneasiness in her heart finally completely dissipated, thinking that it was probably all an illusion just now.
When the two were fighting, a snowflake was suddenly covered in the wind on the glass window in front of them, which reflected the incandescent lights in the store.
You Xuezhen's eyes froze, thinking that she was dazzled. Then, the second piece, the third piece......
β¦β¦ Snowing?
She quickly slapped away the whitening chopsticks, approached the window, and pressed the tip of her nose against the glass, in order to see out of the windowβthere were fine silk threads floating in the night, and she couldn't tell whether it was snow or rain.
After looking at it for a long time, she confirmed that it was probably snow, but the southern city of Xirong made the snow look extraordinarily shy.
She was surprised: "It's so rare, Xirong actually snows." β
It snows every winter in their hometown, but Xirong is rare, so her surprise comes from Xirong rather than from the snow itself, she has no enthusiasm for snow, and she is used to seeing it early in the morning.
But...... You Xuezhen's expression suddenly turned into a trance, and she remembered that someone had mentioned to her that he had never seen snow in his life.
Surprisingly, this seemed to be what Meng Shilong said when they went for a ride for the first time, and she actually remembered it quickly the first time she saw the snow after such a long time.
Maybe...... She was watching him many, much earlier than she thought she would.
You Xuezhen came back to her senses, took out her mobile phone and wanted to take a picture of the snow through the glass, but it was reflective and couldn't shoot it.
She tightened the zipper of her freshly loosened coat and stood up: "I'll go outside and shoot a video." β
The automatic door of the convenience store was opened, and You Xuezhen was surrounded by the cold on her face, and her nose couldn't stand the hot and cold changes at first, and she sneezed several times in a row.
It's damn...... She immediately wanted to go back to the warm convenience store, but she held back, raised her hand in the frozen night, and pointed the camera at the night sky.
Ye Wanbai didn't move, looking at her back with great interest through the glass window.
You Xuezhen filmed for about ten seconds, stopped to look at the picture, but found that it looked like rain, and it was estimated that it was not good to shoot at this angle under the corridor.
She pulled on her coat and hat, simply walked into the snow to shoot, and looked at the effect in the camera, which was really much better than just now.
You Xuezhen was engrossed in holding her mobile phone, and she didn't hear the sound of the convenience store door opening and closing again behind her, until her coat was suddenly covered behind her back.
She turned around in surprise, Ye Wanbai was standing behind her in a white sweater, and her coat was already on her.
He followed and looked at the snow in the sky: "I haven't seen you shoot snow so actively before." β
You Xuezhen said vaguely: "You don't understand." She put away her phone and returned her coat to him, "Okay, let's go in, I'm done." β
The two returned to the convenience store and sat down, the soup base of the oden became warmer, You Xuezhen hastily sandwiched a chopstick and kelp into her mouth to chew, and her eyes never took off her mobile phone - she was editing the video she had just sent in the photo album, cutting off the head and tail, and then clicking on WeChat to send it to Meng Shilong.
She didn't know if he was asleep or not, but she couldn't help but send it to him at once.
Ye Wanbai looked at the glass window, her every move in the mirror made him no longer able to deceive himself, her enthusiasm was because she wanted to share this snow with others.
Obviously they were next to each other, looking at the snow in front of them together, but she lowered her head and extended the snow to those who were not here.
He could almost guess who it was, but he didn't want to ask, so he used his peripheral vision to capture her phone screen under the pretense of lowering his head to eat.
She still didn't use the privacy film, so he could easily see the name of the note, and the location of that name.
It's actually at the very top.
A voice flashed in his head, like the sudden burst of electricity when someone in the KTV was playing with a microphone that was not turned off, and it was ββββββ, about to puncture someone.
You Xuezhen saw that Meng Shilong didn't reply, guessed that he should have fallen asleep, waited for a while before extinguishing the phone, and looked up to find that Ye Wanbai's face was dazed, and he stirred the chopsticks, almost poking the pork chops.
"This pork chop is hard to eat?" You Xuezhen automatically understood that he didn't want to eat it, "No wonder you just wanted to give me the pork chops!" β
He didn't say a word.
Seeing this, You Xuezhen stopped talking a little embarrassed and asked him, "So what do you want to tell me?" β
Ye gradually groaned, and there was a dingdong at the door when the automatic door opened, and someone came in.
He was interrupted, said that he might as well go back and talk about it, got up and covered the box of pork chop rice and threw it away, and went to the counter to ask for a pack of cigarettes and an umbrella to pay the bill.
The uneasiness that had just dissipated permeated You Xuezhen's heart again, what the hell was the word, it was difficult to say it three times or twice.
She swallowed the last egg of the oden whole, packed up the garbage and followed.
The snow outside the street was getting heavier and heavier, and Ye gradually opened the umbrella and covered her head.
"Let's go." He said.
The ground was slippery, and for safety, they didn't return as fast as they came, and the two walked slowly side by side. The streets seem to be getting longer and quieter.
When he was about to walk to the school gate, he suddenly called her name and said something that was inexplicable to You Xuezhen.
"I can now memorize pi to ten decimal places."
You Xuezhen was puzzled: "Why are you suddenly carrying that?" β
Ye Wanbai looked down at her and replied, "I finally know that the next number of 1415926 is 5." β
You Xuezhen's breath stagnated.
The fog condensed by the uneasiness in my heart fell into snow floating on my body at this moment, and came down coldly togetherβ
A distant memory came to mind, but she wished it was just her own heart, and she echoed casually: "Oh, it turned out to be 5." β
"yes, the same score you gave me."
You Xuezhen was stunned, at this moment, the idea that was about to come out was in front of her.
She took a deep breath and still asked incredulously, "What score?" β
He stopped going around in circles and said, "I see the back of that paper." β
She was completely silent.
In this excessive silence, You Xuezhen felt that the falling snow had a sound, and it hit the transparent umbrella surface, making a particularly faint movement - just like her voice. So it took a long, long time, and he found out today.
You Xuezhen's voice was dry: "Didn't you lose your textbook?" β
"Guo Ru gave me back the textbook." He explained succinctly, "She took it back then. β
The snow drifted on the surface of the umbrella and fell on the skin, and the cold extinguished some of the panic.
You Xuezhen didn't know what to say, so she replied to it.
Some things should be lost forever, and not all lost items are something to be thankful for, like the scoresheet.
Seeing that she didn't speak, he asked softly, "That line of wordsβit's not a joke." β
You Xuezhen smiled, but didn't smile: "It's just a joke." β
ββ¦β¦ Don't lie. β
You Xuezhen was still laughing: "Of course I didn't lie to you. How could I possibly like you and always treat you as my best friend. β
As she spoke, she looked at the ground behind the snow, where there was already a black puddle with a bunch of headlights on the way. As the car drove past, the puddle was empty and flashing with black ripples.
The snow continued to fall quietly during the night, seeping into the black water.
Ye Wanbai's Adam's apple rolled, and he pretended to be relaxed like a joke: "But, what if I can't just treat you as a good friend?" β
He stepped on the puddle of water, and the world in which the heavens were reflected in the puddle, the world in which they were called good friends, was crushed with one foot.
Chapter 49
After Ye Wanbai finished speaking, the snow around him seemed to freeze and stopped in mid-air, and the ice crystals looked like cracks in the world that were cracking.
You Xuezhen's emotional reaction had already struck, and she asked with a wooden face, "What do you mean by this?" β
He handed her the umbrella, stepped back from under it, and with great difficulty, pulled out the pack of cigarettes he had just bought, and took out one and lit it.
White smoke escaped from his mouth, and his throat rolled and rolled, followed by a sentence: "I like you, You Xuezhen." β
You Xuezhen listened to her name being pronounced by him, but it was associated with the words "I like you", how ridiculous. So much so that the three words You Xuezhen seem to be someone else's name, not hers.
She clutched the handle of the umbrella, her knuckles white.
He didn't speak again, pumping very slowly. Standing outside the umbrella, he blended with the colorful snow, and the soot that shook off his hands was like snow, hot snow.
The smoking posture was already very proficient, not at all the way she had the first time she noticed him smoking.
Towards the end of that night's self-study hall, he said to go to the bathroom, but the classroom was almost gone, and he hadn't come back. She ran outside the toilet to call his name, but no one answered, and she asked louder if you were constipated inside! The male classmate who passed by couldn't help laughing, and kindly told her that she seemed to see Ye Wanbai going in the direction of the rooftop.
In the end, she did catch someone on the rooftop. He hid in the far corner of the rooftop, hunched and sneaky. As soon as she got closer, she smelled a particularly bad smell.
"Are you smoking?"
Her cold voice startled him, and the cigarette in her hand fell to the ground.
He stepped on it with his foot in embarrassment, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "No, which eye do you see that I smoke?" β
"Then you move your feet away."
He didn't move, his hands in his pockets, his head hanging low.
You Xuezhen frowned, like a teacher torturing him, "When did you start smoking?" β
Ye Wanbai was a little impatient, but still replied to her: "Just today." β
"Why did you start smoking all of a sudden?"
"Don't adults like to smoke when they're upset?" He laughed, "Then I'll try it and see if it works." β
You Xuezhen sensed that something was wrong, and carefully changed her words and asked, "What's wrong with you??" β
Ye Wanbai took out the pinched cigarette case from his pocket, threw it on the ground, and replied: "This is my father's cigarette." β
ββ¦β¦ You secretly drank your dad's wine last time, and this time you secretly smoked your dad's cigarettes, don't you want me to take my top bag again? β
He corrected her: "I didn't steal it from him." β
"Huh?"
"His cigarettes, as well as his lighter, are in Mr. Xu's drawer."
You Xuezhen was stunned and stunned for a while: "What does this mean......?" β
"Last week, I bumped into him hiding in the bathroom in the middle of the night and calling her." Ye Wanbai recalled very calmly, "He opened the door and saw me outside, and then explained to me that it was a home visit, so I didn't think about it." β
You Xuezhen held her breath, as if a door appeared out of thin air in front of her, and she was opened, and she also saw this scene with her own eyes.
