11 Waiting for the wind
"Like me?"
Wen Li heard these three words in his ears again, and he was stunned in place, and his brain shut down on the spot.
Her heart paused for a second, then beat wildly and violently, her breathing began to rapid, and her fingertips began to tremble.
Wen Li pinched her palms with her fingernails, wondering if she should say yes or lie to him and say no.
Without waiting for her to choose a result, He Xili pressed his eyelids down and said calmly: "Don't like me, I don't fall in love with anyone." β
Wen Li was stunned for a few seconds before he came to his senses.
Her whole body seemed to be stuffed into a cold cellar, her heart was cold, and her body was stiff.
The wind of the autumn night was biting and cold, blowing her eyes red.
Wen Li blinked his eyelashes lightly, enduring the sour discomfort coming from his throat and the tip of his nose: "No." β
He Xili's dark and deep eyes locked on her, and said lightly: "It's good if you don't have it." β
"I'm a bad person, and I don't deserve your liking."
Wen Li never imagined that people's moods were so diverse, from spring to winter in just a few minutes, and falling into the abyss was only a sentence or two away from him.
Wen Li smiled at him: "My family conditions are not good, and my grandmother's health is not good, so my first task is to study, to get admitted to university, and I don't plan to fall in love in high school, for me, studying is more important." β
Her voice was soft, light, and firm.
I don't know why, after He Xili heard it, he always felt uncomfortable for a moment in his heart, bored and hot.
After a while, he said "um": "It's good." β
Wen Li stood up: "Don't fight in the future." β
He Xili raised his eyes, and his dark eyes seemed to be about to spy on something.
Wen Li asked, "Aren't you in pain?" β
He snorted, "It doesn't hurt." β
Wen Li: "Then aren't your parents worried about you?" β
He Xili's face changed instantaneously in a second, he raised his eyelashes, and his eyes were full of coldness: "Wen Li, who do you think you are mine?" β
"You don't care if I fight."
Wen Li stiffened, and his face turned pale: "I'm sorry, I overstepped." β
She took a few steps forward, turned back, put the red bean pudding milk tea that was still warm on his lap, and whispered, "Do you remember, the day before school started, you helped a girl in the alley, and that person was me." β
"He Xili, thank you."
Wen Li swallowed all his emotions and said softly, "Just take it as a return gift for you to help me that day." β
With that, she turned to leave.
He Xili looked at Wen Li's slender back, and the dryness in his heart seemed to have become worse.
Keeping out of his sight, Wen Li's straight back seemed to have finally lost his strength, his shoulders drooped, and he slowly arched his waist.
Finally, she crouched down with her knees folded like a tense bow.
The sourness that she had endured for a long time turned into tears and wet her skirt.
"Wen Li, you behaved very well." She held back her crying and whispered to herself, as if to comfort her, "He shouldn't know, he won't know how you feel about him." β
Thinking of He Xili's cold and sarcastic words, why did she still feel wronged.
It's just that because she likes him, he doesn't like her.
What's wrong with him.
What is wrong is her self-righteous loneliness, and what is wrong is her desire that she can never fill. Hope, it's that she's too greedy, it's that she's not satisfied.
If Nuwa Niangniang pinched her into the appearance he liked, and pinched her into the character he liked, then would he like herself.
It would be great if there was one medicine in the world that would make him like himself completely.
Wen Li couldn't help but think again, what if the medicine had side effects, he would get sick if he took it.
But there are no ifs in this world, and the problems of this world can never be solved.
Wen Li stayed on the side of the road for a minute, wiped away her tears, and walked home alone.
When she got home, Qin Xiuying saw her reddened eyes, wiped the wetness of her palms, and walked over: "Li Li, what's wrong?" β
"It's fine." Wen Li hugged Qin Xiuying, smelling the familiar breath, she shook her head, "Grandma, can I sleep with you at night." β
Qin Xiuying touched her head: "I haven't slept with us Li Li for a long time, grandma will tickle you tonight." β
"When I was a child, we Li Li Ke made trouble, and we couldn't sleep if we didn't tickle, but now that we're older, we're more obedient than before."
"But sometimes, grandma would rather you weren't so obedient."
After a while, Wen Li adjusted his mood and said with a smile: "Grandma is so good to me." β
"Of course, Li Li is my only precious granddaughter, I don't care who do you hurt?"
At night, Wen Li turned on her mobile phone and looked at He Xili's avatar, she had read the news that she had memorized countless times, and with a touch of her fingertips, she blocked his Q.Q.
It's like saying goodbye to her first love who has been secretly in love with her for two years and has never had any story.
......
The next day, He Xili arrived at Wen Li's house at less than seven o'clock.
He was still standing under the coal shed, holding a bottle of pineapple yogurt in his hand, but he didn't have the usual casual mood, and clicked on his phone from time to time to take a look.
At ten o'clock at seven, He Xili sent her as usual: [Arrived]
The next second, a red exclamation mark appeared on the phone screen.
[Failed to send, please add the other person as a friend first.] γ
-
Although Wen Li knew that He Xili would not come to pick her up again, in order to avoid any accidents, she still went out half an hour early.
When I arrived at the school, the classroom door had not yet opened. After waiting for a few minutes, the study committee member who was staying at the school came over with a water cup and opened the door: "It's so early today." β
Wen Li: "I'm here early." β
After the morning self-study, Gou Aiguo patted the lectern and signaled everyone to be quiet: "This Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday monthly exams." β
When the words fell, everyone in the classroom had a sad face and cried.
"Ah, it's so fast, it's just a weekly test, why do you have to take the exam again."
"I don't know anything yet."
"Help, me too."
"Don't howl, no matter how much you howl, you can't stop the fact that you have to take the monthly exam." Gou Aiguo held the thermos cup and said with a smile, "Then let me tell you a good news, after the monthly exam, it will be the National Day and a seven-day holiday." β
There was a slamming of the table and the sound of stomping and screaming.
"Of course, in addition to the seven-day vacation, you still have papers to do in various subjects."
Screams in the classroom turned to sighs.
After that, Gou Aiguo called Wen Li and Chen Shang out of the door: "The math league rematch is in mid-October, and the school arranges three days of tutoring during the National Day holiday, don't forget the two of you." β
Wen Li: "Got it. β
Xu deleted He Xili's contact information and cut off her thoughts, Wen Li felt that she was much more efficient in brushing questions, and even the accuracy rate of the English test paper was 20% higher than before.
The last bell rang in the morning, and Cen Xi stretched out for a lazy sleep: "Finally got out of class, I'm tired, Li Li, you are too powerful, you can't sit all morning." β
"Let's go, let's have dinner with Li Yici, I just sent him a message and asked him to take a place for us."
Hearing the people related to He Xili, Wen Li pursed his lips: "Xixi, I'm not going, I haven't finished the homework assigned by the competition teacher, I have to send it to the teacher before the second class in the afternoon, you can eat with them." β
"Huh?" Cen Xi hugged her arm, "Don't, Li Li, you are already thin enough, and not eating is not good for your health." β
Wen Li smiled: "If I don't eat, I will become a god, and I will go to buy food after I finish these questions." β
"Okay, then I'll go."
"Hmm."
When he arrived at the restaurant, Shi Yan only saw Cen Xi coming alone, and he said, "Where is Sister Wen?" β
He Xili leaned back in his chair, and a pair of black eyes stared at Cen Xi for a moment.
"Li Li is writing math competition papers, she has been quite busy recently, this week's monthly exam, National Day she has to make up for three days of classes, and she has to participate in the competition rematch after the holiday, she is really busy, if I am going to collapse." Cen Xi said while sucking on the noodles.
After a few seconds, He Xili whispered, more mockingly.
Cen Xi was frightened by his appearance, and she asked Li Yici carefully: "What's the matter with He Xili." β
"The expression is scary, a little scary."
Li Yici glanced at him and chuckled: "Who knows, who may have a conflict with whom." β
Shi Yan swallowed the food in his mouth: "Don't say it, Brother He came when the self-study was almost over this morning, and his face was so heavy that he was about to drip, and he still kicked in the door, and the movement was "bang", and the aura was ...... There was really no one in the classroom who dared to say a word, and none of the endorsers dared to recite it again, and they all began to read silently. β
"Also, during the big recess, a boy in our class was fighting at the same table with him, and accidentally bumped into Brother He's desk, maybe the boy didn't know if he didn't apologize or what, Brother He told him to get out with a cold face."
"Seriously, at that moment, I felt like the boy was about to cry."
Cen Xi swallowed his saliva: "......"
After a hurried meal, the group put the tableware.
He Xili walked towards the classroom with an angular face, but was stopped by a girl halfway.
The girl handed him a love letter: "He Xili, I like you." β
He Xili said casually: "You are very good, but I don't like your type." β
"And what do you like?"
Everyone knows that He Xili behaves in a profligate and casual manner, and she is playing with girls, and she can't take it seriously, but even if she is in love, she is willing to try to hit the south wall.
He Xili lowered his eyelids and looked at her condescendingly: "I like to look at well-behaved, obedient, beautiful, taller than you, thinner than you." β
After speaking, he suddenly lowered his head and smiled mockingly, and when he raised his eyes, he had returned to his original indifferent expression: "Is it useful to ask these?" β
"The word like is a specific word, and once you have a clear framework for that person in your heart, it's not far from liking her." The girl couldn't help but ask, "You...... Do you already have someone you like? β
He Xili frowned irritably: "I don't know, I haven't figured it out yet." β
"That girl is here to confess to you?" Shi Yan and Li Yici walked over, "You refused?" I was about to cry when I looked at it. β
He Xili put it in his pocket and glanced at him: "What do you think, she lost something and was picked up by me." β
When the girl not far away heard He Xili's words, her eyes were red, and she understood that he had protected her dignity and face by saying this.
A person like He Xili, who can resist, who can completely forget him.
Back in the classroom, He Xili put on a peaked cap, lowered his eyes, his jawline was sharp and cold, and his legs were folded on the table, looking like a gentleman.
He played with his mobile phone in one hand and didn't raise his head: "What do you mean by someone blocking you." β
Shi Yan's face was shocked when he heard it: "! Someone blocked my Brother He? Who is so courageous! β
He Xili drooped his eyelids, his side face was cold and awe-inspiring, and he didn't say a word.
"It's a girl? I'll go, it's really a girl blocking you, no, what kind of bastard did you do. Shi Yan pressed the stool, "I suddenly balanced my heart, it turned out that He He, who is the most handsome person in the world, actually has a girl who hates it." β
He Xili turned his head to look at him, his eyelids were half-closed, and his gaze was cold, full of threat.
After a second of delay, he raised his hands and surrendered: "Okay, okay, how can my brother He have girls who hate it, it's too late to love." β
"However, blocking you must be what you did wrong, there is only one way, coax."
He Xili stopped turning his mobile phone and looked at him.
"Girls are very coaxing, not to mention that you are so handsome, maybe when you see your face, your girlish anger will disappear."
As soon as Shi Yan finished speaking, he saw He Xili stand up, pick up his mobile phone and walk out of the classroom.
"Brother He, where are you going?"
β......β
Shi Yan was dumbfounded, and said to Li Yici on the side: "It's over, He Xili is finished, he seems to have fallen in love." β
"Am I blind, or is the sky falling, and he He Xili actually lowered his posture to coax the little girl?"
"It's really a thing to a thing, and I don't know if we recognize the girl He Xili wants to coax."
Li Yici smiled meaningfully: "There are two if there is one, this is just the beginning." β
......
When Cen Xi came back, Wen Li had already completed the four major questions assigned by the competition teacher.
"Li Li, what's wrong with you in the past two days, you're as depressed as falling out of love." Cen Xi sat next to her, holding her chin and looking at her.
Wen Li's pen tip paused on the test paper for a moment, and she smiled: "No, I have to participate in the semi-finals after the National Day, and I am busy during the holidays, so I am afraid that I will not be able to finish the questions." β
They sat in the row near the corridor, the afternoon sun held her whole body in the light, her skin was translucent and fair, Cen Xi looked a little stunned.
"Our Li Li is so beautiful, I don't know what kind of boy I like." She asked curiously.
No one saw He Xili standing in the corridor at this time, by the windows in their row.
He carried a bag of snacks in his hand, which contained bread, snacks, and a cup of warm red bean pudding milk tea.
Wen Li stared at a place in a daze, pursing his lips: "He looks clean, gentle, doesn't smoke, fights, and doesn't dye his hair, he is a good student at first glance, such a boy will make me feel safe." β
"Ahh Cen Xi's eyes widened, "Isn't that Li Yici?!" β
Wen Li looked at her frightened appearance and was amused: "How can I like the person you like." β
She was speaking with an adjective that was the opposite of He Xili.
It seems that this is the only way to make her forget that person.
Cen Xi had to tickle her: "Okay, Wen Li, I haven't seen you get bad for a few days." β
The two were joking, but they didn't see He Xili throwing a bag of snacks into the trash with a calm face.
In the next three days, Nantan No. 1 Middle School held monthly exams, exams during the day, and self-study classes at night.
After the exam on Friday, the representatives of each subject brought the homework and test papers of each subject holiday.
"My God, there are seven papers in mathematics, four in Chinese, four in English, and three in physics, chemistry and biology, a total of nearly twenty papers!"
"Brother, in addition to this, there are also memorization tasks in Chinese and English."
"Ah, I don't want to take a vacation."
β......β
There was an instant cry in the classroom.
After all, the school bell had not yet sounded, and the students had counted the countdown and packed their school bags.
Gou Aiguo stood on the podium: "Children, during the seven-day National Day holiday, don't run around, pay attention to safety." β
"Okay, I wish you all a happy National Day, see you after the holiday."
"Fun with the old class!"
On the way out of school, Cen Xi held Wen Li's arm: "Li Li, are you free on National Day?" β
Wen Li tilted his head and asked, "What's wrong?" β
"Two friends from He Xili Jingbei are looking for him, and a few of them are going to camp in Qingye Mountain, so invite the two of us to join us."
Wen Li's mind still echoed He Xili's cold words that day, and she pursed her lips: "I'm not going." β
Cen Xi sighed: "One of He Xili's friends is the girl who called him at the barbecue restaurant that day. In case he teases us, that girl is actually his girlfriend or an ambiguous partner, so I'm the only girl left, and I don't know them well, how embarrassing. β
Wen Li's right eyelid jumped, and a little astringency still emerged in his heart.
"Go, go, go." Cen Xi was coquettish, "Okay, you should rest with me for two days." β
Wen Li hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded for a long time: "Okay." β
......
Three days before the National Day, Wen Li went to school to make up classes during the day and took care of business in the store at night.
On October 3rd, Wen Li was pulled into a Q.Q group by Shi Yan.
The name of the group is simple and clear - "Aoye Mountain Picnic Tour".
This group name was attacked and clichΓ©d by several people, but it was not changed.
Wen Li subconsciously clicked on the group members and found that He Xili's q.q avatar had been replaced with an all-black avatar, and the screen name was still "L".
She looked at it for a while and found that in addition to a few of them, there were two more people, who should be friends of He Xili Jingbei.
[Ayasuran: @L, Jin Siyu and I have arrived in Nantan, come and pick up the driver. Quote]]
[Aya Suran: You are limited to 20 minutes]
γLοΌγ γ
Wen Li closed his phone and didn't look at it again.
In the evening, the messages in the group reached 99+, and there was also news from Aite.
[Time delay: @ε ¨δ½ζε, Brother He lives with his two friends, and he will go out at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and the three of them will drive to pick us up [excited]]
Wen Li glanced at it, leaving only her and He Xili without responding.
It would be rude not to reply, Wen Li lowered his head and moved his fingertips: [Received.] γ
After a second, the phone vibrates.
[L: Roger.] γ
Wen Li's heart skipped a beat.
He Xili sent the same thing behind her.
Wen Li was no longer thinking nonsense, and was just about to turn off her mobile phone, when she found that Aya Suran had added her q.q.
She was stunned for a long time, and finally agreed to Ayasuran's friend request.
......
Early the next morning, Wen Li got up from bed with dark circles under her eyes, and when she finished packing her backpack and went downstairs, a black nine-seater business vehicle had stopped at the entrance of her community.
The windows of the last row of cars slid down, and Cen Xi waved at her: "Li Li, come up." β
The rest of the car windows were closed, and Wen Li couldn't tell where He Xili was sitting, and only hoped that she and him would not be next to each other.
She trotted over and was about to pull the car door, when there was a "bang" and the door was pulled open by the people inside.
The light in the car was dim, but Wen Li still saw He Xili at a glance.
After a few days of not seeing, He Xili's hair was dyed black, his head was shaved, and the silhouette was deeper and colder, he was wearing a black motorcycle suit, cargo pants, and short boots, and he had an unruly wild ruffian in his bones.
It seems to be more eye-catching than before.
Wen Li paused as he lifted his feet, and the beating of his heart came one after another.
He stabbed her with thin eyelids as sharp as a knife: "Come up, get in the way." β
Wen Li had no choice but to bite the bullet and get into the car.
Ayasu Ran, who was sitting in the co-pilot, turned her head and teased: "Ah Che, why are you so fierce, treat girls gently, you will be liked." β
Wen Li's cheeks burned faintly.
"Why did Brother He remember to shave his head this time? I also dyed my hair back, and it changed a lot. Shi Yan said.
He Xili touched his head and played with taste: "Isn't it handsome?" β
"Handsome, it's cool, at first glance, it's a ruffian, and little girls like you like a bad species."
He Xili snorted: "Master, this is a male high school student with a red Miaozheng. β
"Yo yo yo, Brother He Liu, you don't look serious when you dye it black, where does this mean that there is a red seedling, could it be that a little girl likes this type of you to dye for love-" The latter words were swept by He Xili's eyes, and he was so stunned that he closed his mouth.
Wen Li tried to shrink himself into a ball as much as possible.
Jin Siyu drove in front, music was playing in the car, and the business car drove towards Qingye Mountain.
There are many ring roads in Qingye Mountain, more than 100 kilometers away from Nantan Town, it takes two hours to drive, the mountain road is bumpy, and it is a ring road of nearly 360 degrees, which makes Wen Li a little dizzy.
Aya Suran turned her head and saw Wen Li frowning and leaning against the car window, with a bad face: "Little beauty, why is your face so pale, it can't be motion sickness, right?" β
Wen Li: "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night." β
He Xili glanced at her and raised his eyebrows: "Reach out." β
Wen Li was stunned for a moment, and met his dark eyes.
He Xili looked at her nonchalantly, and then threw her a few things.
Wen Li lowered her head, and three colorful candies fell into the palm of her hand.
"Ahh Aya Suran raised her eyebrows and teased, "Do you have mine, I'm also a little sicksick." β
He Xili's two long legs had a strong sense of existence, and they were wide open, as if they had inadvertently bumped into Wen Li's legs.
The young man's scorching body temperature was constantly transmitted through the fabric, strong and powerful.
Wen Li stiffened, and his calf moved to the left.
Moving a little, the boy's leg hit her knee again.
It seems to be deliberate.
Wen Li raised his eyes, He Xili looked straight ahead, his side face was cold, and he said lightly: "No, motion sickness, you look for Jin Siyu." β
Her calf was leaning to the left again.
Aya Suran: "Cut, I didn't expect to become so ruthless after only a few months of not seeing each other." β
He laughed: "Ruthless? β
Wen Li noticed that the leg of the man next to him hit him again.
and a prickly gaze.
He Xili was in the silent carriage, and suddenly chuckled:
"Then where can anyone be ruthless?"
