Volume Two, Chapter 23, Going towards Each Other
Hearing this familiar voice, Chu Chengmu froze. What should I do? The cool and aloof academic character I had been working on for half a year was completely ruined!
Chu Chengmu straightened up stiffly, pretending to be nonchalant, took out a tissue from his pocket, wiped his hands, turned around and looked at the porcelain doll, and said calmly:
"When did you come? Why didn't I see you?"
"I was buying cakes, and I was blocked by someone. I saw you when you came out of the third cafeteria, and I wanted to say hello to you, but you ran to the commercial street, and then I saw you struggling with the tree. Don't
Are you angry?"
The porcelain doll held an egg cake in one hand, the paper bag filled with oil was soaked in oil, and a leaf in the other hand. There was a hint of caution and regret on the little fleshy face.
"I just know how to eat, eat, eat, look at your face, you look like a hamster, confiscated." Chu Chengmu took the egg pancake as if nothing happened, took a bite, and then took out a paper towel and handed it to Qin Yi: "Wipe it off.
wipe!"
"Oh, are you still angry?" Porcelain Doll took the tissue and carefully wiped the oil stains on her little hands. She quickly raised her head and glanced at Chu Chengmu's expression, and whispered, "I saw Chu Chengmu just now."
I was venting my anger on the tree here, and she ran over before I could put a plastic bag around the paper bag.
"Why do you think I'm angry?" Chu Chengmu took another bite of the cake, and it still tasted familiar. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but want to curl up, so he calmed down his expression and walked straight forward.
Putting one hand in his pocket, he quietly found Li Rong's phone number on his mobile phone and quickly sent a text message asking him to help explain to Lao Liu that he was in a hurry and wouldn't have dinner with him tonight.
Are you saying that old mobile phones are useless? At least touch typing is still very smooth!
"Hey!" Porcelain Doll sighed and followed Chu Chengmu out of habit. After so long, it seems that following him has become an instinct!
The two found a bench in the small garden near the basketball court. The bench was a little wet. Porcelain Doll took out a tissue from his bag and carefully wiped the water off the bench before motioning Chu Chengmu to sit down.
In fact, everyone is growing up. The little girl who used to only cause trouble not only has troubles, but also begins to learn to take care of others.
"You don't look good in gray, you look cold! I still like your jacket, it's cool and handsome." The porcelain doll sat beside Chu Chengmu, looked up at him sideways, and then
He sat up straight and carefully picked up the branches and leaves that had just fallen on Chu Cheng Mu's head, puffed out his cheeks and said a little unhappy.
"The day after you left, Shumo called me and told me that you were looking for him. Actually, thinking about it carefully, what he said to me made sense. Maybe I was too petty!
"The porcelain doll helped Chu Chengmu clean up the dirty things on his body, and held his chubby little face with his hands, looking a little depressed.
"What did he say?" Chu Chengmu handed the egg pancake that he had taken two bites to the porcelain doll. The porcelain doll didn't dislike it, took it and took a bite.
"I thought you really ate them all. An egg pancake in the third cafeteria costs seven yuan. I calculated that one egg pancake is enough to fill me up. I didn't eat dinner on purpose to save my stomach!" Porcelain Doll wrinkled.
Little nose, chewing and muttering in his mouth.
"He said, he said that you are arrogant and sensitive at heart. You don't seem to have a bad temper, and you don't get along well with others. You seem to be easy to get along with, but in fact you are very difficult to get along with. There are some things that only he can say, and you can't.
He would care if other people said it, and you would close yourself off. Later, it was confirmed that what he said was right. Didn't you say anything else to me except good morning and good night?"
"What else did you say? This old Yan is really troublesome." Chu Chengmu disliked Yan Shumo, but there was a hint of warm smile in his eyes.
"I also told you that you went to provide disaster relief, but you didn't call him. In fact, he was quite angry, but he told me that although you were a little self-righteous in what you did, why did you only do these things to him?
Yan Shumo only did this to me, Qin Yi?"
"This is what he said exactly: If you look at another person, he won't even look at him in front of Old Chu!"
Chu Chengmu couldn't help but smile when he heard the words. He couldn't help but think of the scene when he met Ma Ke the night before yesterday. The person who knew him best in the world was Yan Shumo. But being analyzed so clearly by someone still made him feel a little...
strangeness.
"You just look gentle, but in fact you are very hard-hearted. You will be entangled and hesitant. But once you make a decision, some people will abandon it as soon as they want to abandon it. You also told me that you should either be mentally prepared.
From now on, the words "Chu Chengmu" will gradually fade away in my life, or I will give you a chance to figure it out for yourself!"
"Maybe Shumo is the person who knows you best in the world. After we talked on the phone, I thought about it and found that it is indeed the case. Do you still remember Xiao Liu? How good you were to him before graduation, sending him study materials, and
I order so much food for him every day, but until now after graduating from high school, many of my classmates are still in contact, but you, except me, seem to have lost contact with the rest of them, right?"
The porcelain doll has a very small mouth, and it takes a while to chew it before taking one bite. The speech was a bit slurred, but at least I could understand it.
Chu Chengmu took out a tissue, and in the porcelain doll's confused gaze, he gently wiped the corners of her mouth and explained softly:
"I didn't abandon Xiao Liu, I am this kind of person. I was my classmate for three years in high school and my deskmate for one year. It was fate."
"So whether it's studying materials, ordering food, or finally giving him suggestions to fill out his application form, I'm the one explaining this fate!"
"When you chose to believe me, I would be happy because I care about you and Lao Yan. Xiao Liu chose not to believe me and screwed up in the end, but I won't regret it because I was only doing my job.
I thought it was something I should do, so after high school, I only had four words for him: see you again if we are destined!"
"It sounds very pretentious, right? But in my heart, the degree of closeness between people is ranked in this order."
"Then don't be angry with me! When I think about what Shu Mo said, you will no longer exist in my world, I feel as if my heart is half empty. During this period, you will only be with me.
I was so scared when I said good morning and good night. I was afraid that one day you would disappear completely without even saying good morning and good night, but I have liked you for six years."
The porcelain doll grabbed Chu Chengmu's hand that was still near his mouth, rubbed his face on it, and said softly.
"I'm not angry!" Chu Chengmu shook his head, "I just don't know how to get along with you, and I don't know what to do to make you feel that I'm not perfunctory. I listened to what Lao Yan said.
You asked me to be patient and wait for you to grow up, and I listened!"
The mist in the mountains that spread from the forest to the campus finally dissipated. The small-leafed banyan trees rustled in the breeze, carrying little drops of water. A group of young girls passing under the trees covered their heads and shouted.
There were bursts of laughter, and the golden-red sunset broke through the thick clouds, preferentially shining a ray of sunshine with a little warmth of early winter on the two people cuddling on the bench.
"Chu Chengmu, can you just pretend that we have never quarreled? I still want to like you!" A slightly moist breeze blew by, and the porcelain doll shuddered, lifting Chu Chengmu's woolen coat.
, burrowed his head into Chu Chengmu’s arms, and murmured in a low voice.
