Tao Zhi was originally a straightforward person with a straight temper, he didn't like to hold back in a twist and turn, if he had something in his heart, he would express it directly.
Now that it has been confirmed, and now that I have understood what I think in my heart, there is nothing to hide.
If you can't match it, work hard to match it, if you can't catch it, chase it slowly.
What's the meaning of secret love, and secret love can't make people's dreams come true.
If she is in love with someone silently and silently, and her boy is chased by others, then she regrets that she can't find it.
She almost held her breath, waiting for Jiang Qihuai's reaction.
It's all said and done, if he can't hear it, then he is a fool.
She stared straight at him, trying to see the slightest clue from his expression, whether it was surprise or fright.
But Jiang Qihuai didn't respond.
He looked down at her, against the setting sun outside the window, a pair of peach blossom eyes were covered by a shadow, and the color of the eyes gradually darkened.
The two looked at each other for a while.
Tao Zhi pursed his lips, but couldn't help it anymore.
She whispered, "Why didn't you respond?"
Jiang Qihuai paused for two seconds before speaking: "Do I agree?"
His voice was very low, with an imperceptible hoarseness.
After all, she is a girl with a thin skin. Tao Zhi felt that her ears were a little hot, and she lowered her eyelashes: "If you agree, I will finish all those papers today."
She muttered: "I can always be half right."
Tao Zhi thought for a while, as long as she could get half of the questions correct on each paper, Jiang Qihuai would be able to hug her tonight and not let go.
But this seems to be too stupid.
She wondered if her straight ball was too sudden, and she should give him a little buffer time.
After all, Jiang Qihuai should be quite shy in the relationship between men and women.
Tao Zhi raised his eyes, glanced secretly at a shy man who was as cold as ice, and took a step back: "Are you serious? I was joking."
Jiang Qihuai looked at her, the corners of his lips slowly pursed into a straight line.
It looks like it's getting colder.
Tao Zhi felt a little regretful that she said this without thinking, she scratched the edge of the table with her fingers, feeling a little annoyed.
What Jiang Qihuai was thinking, she didn't know.
He was also not sure whether he liked it, minded it, or found it annoying when she expressed it so bluntly.
Tao Zhi stopped talking, Jiang Qihuai didn't say anything, and quietly helped her finish correcting the paper, and the two of them fell into an inexplicable silence.
In the last ten minutes of evening self-study, Zhao Mingqi went up to the podium, talked about the upcoming sports meeting, and called on everyone to actively sign up to win honor for the class.
Tao Zhi didn't listen to a word, and waited until Wang Foldzi came in and handed out today's homework after school. She reluctantly stood up from Ji Fan's seat, and slowly returned to her seat to pack her schoolbag.
She packed all her things, turned her head away, Jiang Qihuai hadn't left yet, and his things were also packed, sitting on the seat and scrolling on his mobile phone, not knowing what he was waiting for.
Tao Zhi just wanted to talk to him.
Ji Fan stepped over in two steps, holding her schoolbag in one hand and her school uniform jacket in the other, and dragged her away without looking back.
Tao Zhi staggered and followed him out of the classroom, reluctantly turned back to look for Jiang Qihuai, Ji Fan walked quickly, almost carrying her forward.
Tao Zhi was a little annoyed that he didn't have a final word with Jiang Qihuai: "Why are you running so fast!"
"Aren't you going to wait for you to continue flirting with others?" Ji Fan slowed down and rolled his eyes, "Can you restrain yourself a little bit, are you still in the classroom? You are the two sitting in front of you Everyone is deaf, right?"
Tao Zhi paused, and blushed belatedly.
She stammered: "Did you hear that? My voice is very low."
"We, fuck, sit in front of you, ancestor," Ji Fan said in a word, "So, is it Jiang Qihuai who you like?"
Tao Zhi didn't say a word, as acquiesced.
"I'm so fucked," Ji Fan looked shocked and knew this before, "I guessed it was him before, there are only a few of you who have a good relationship with you, you can't possibly like Li Shuangjiang's second queer .”
Tao Zhi retorted weakly: "Why is that impossible? Li Shuangjiang is not bad, and his grades are quite good."
季繁看起来有些郁闷：“江起淮这个逼，前脚把我揍一顿，后脚我姐就喜欢上他了，我他妈要在这人身上栽两次？”
"Can't say that," Tao Zhi corrected him, "You didn't think about it, maybe because he took you a meal, did I like him?"
Ji Fan: "..."
The two talked while walking all the way, and went out of the school gate to find a car.
The car that came to pick him up was still parked in the old place, but it was replaced by a new one.
Before Ji Fan could react, he thought that Uncle Gu had parked somewhere else today, Tao Zhi's eyes lit up, and he went straight to the black car.
She opened the car door, and Tao Xiuping was lying on the steering wheel, frowning in a daze, looking a little preoccupied, when he heard the sound of the car door, he suddenly came back to his senses.
He loosened his eyebrows and looked at her with a smile: "Whose princess is this after school?"
Because Ji Fan came back, Tao Zhi didn't sit in the co-pilot, and obediently climbed into the back seat and sat in: "Aren't you coming back in two days?"
"Isn't this in a hurry to pick up our young master and miss?" Tao Xiuping raised his finger and pointed to the back, "Chestnut crisps, Xiao Fan doesn't like too sweet, so I bought some meat floss egg rolls to try. "
Ji Fan also got into the car, he was still depressed and didn't answer: "Maybe I heard that you molested a boy from another family, so I came here to check on the post."
Tao Xiuping had just started the car and started slowly on the road. He choked on his saliva when he heard this: "Yesterday, you were still awkward, and today you started?"
Ji Fan rolled his eyes: "She asked someone to give her a hug."
Tao Xiuping slammed on the brakes, and the car barely stopped in front of the red light at the intersection of the school.
He turned his head directly: "Is that little beast in your arms?"
Tao Zhi: "..."
Ji Fan: "..."
Tao Xiuping cleared his throat, turned his head around again, and slowed down his tone: "Dad means, that boy."
"No, she was ignored." Ji Fan said gloatingly.
Tao Xiuping secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Tao Zhi sat in the back and punched Ji Fan.
Ji Fan covered his stomach and bent down, "Ah", "I'm hurt!"
Tao Zhi didn't want to talk to him, turned his head to one side, and looked out of the car window sullenly.
Did Jiang Qihuai pay attention to her
When Ji Fan's hearing was bad, he went to get it treated. He obviously replied, and asked her if she wanted to agree.
What respect for her.
Tao Xiuping came back early, he was in charge as usual at home, Aunt Zhang helped, Ji Fan sat on the sofa playing with the robot Tao Xiuping brought back from Germany, Tao Zhi's gift was placed beside him, and he sat on the sofa reading a book.
The dishes were almost ready, Tao Xiuping came over, thought she was reading some novel, but when he looked down, it was a document in the native language.
Tao Zhi stared straight at a certain point in the living room, whispering in his mouth, reciting ancient poems.
She was so focused that she didn't notice Tao Xiuping approaching at all. The man looked stunned and made eye contact with his son: Is she like this every day now
Ji Fan nodded and mouthed to him: The little bastard she likes is first in grade.
Tao Xiuping's mood was a bit complicated.
Both gratified and jealous.
His daughter didn't study hard because of him, but now because of another boy, she decided to study hard again.
During dinner, Tao Zhi mentioned to Tao Xiuping that he wanted to find a tutor.
Tao Xiuping said about finding a tutor before. When Tao Zhi’s grades in junior high school plummeted like he was sitting on a paraglider, Tao Zhi was very conflicted at the time, and said twice that they broke up on bad terms. pass.
This time she proposed it herself, and Tao Xiuping immediately agreed.
He is very efficient, and the tutor comes at ten o'clock on Saturday morning.
The other party was a sophomore in a prestigious school, named Jiang Hesheng, the son of a friend of Tao Xiuping. Originally, he planned to pull Ji Fan up to attend the class, but the young man would rather die than surrender, and in the end Tao Zhi attended the class alone.
Jiang He grew up with a gentle and handsome appearance, and his resume during school was also very beautiful. The vice chairman of the student union and a core member of the school debate team also have their own way of speaking.
Different from Jiang Qihuai's succinct and concise question types, which are divided into key questions and can't say a word of nonsense, he speaks very delicately, and the basic knowledge will be repeated over and over again, and Tao Zhi asks simple questions He will not be impatient.
In his words, the foundation is the most important part of building a tall building on the ground. If you master the basics, you will see many problems that you don't know where to start.
Because they are acquaintances, the class time is also a lot more random, and there is no fixed time. Tao Xiuping asked the two children to add contact information, and they arrange their own time.
After the whole morning tutoring, after lunch, Tao Zhi sat at the desk admiring the papers he finished in class in the morning.
She took a pen and counted the questions one by one with the tip of the pen, counting how many hugs she could get with this paper.
Counting and counting, she couldn't sit still anymore, her heart was itchy.
This time, Tao Zhi had a brain and brought the paper with him when he went out.
Once a stranger and second acquaintance, she got off the car downstairs at Jiang Qihuai's house, went to the small supermarket next door to buy something, and walked to his door with her hands full, relying on memory.
The light in the corridor was very dark, and the things were very heavy. Tao Zhi had red marks on both hands. She stood at the door, but her footsteps suddenly stopped.
A bit abrupt.
She didn't even think of saying hello to him, she just came to the door of his house as soon as her head got hot, what's going on, she's not polite at all.
Tao Zhi leaned on the cold armrest, thought for a while, and decided to go back first, and wait for the next time to say hello.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, the anti-theft door in front of her clicked open. Grandpa Jiang was standing at the door with a bag of garbage in his hand. When he saw her, he was taken aback for a moment, and said with a smile, "Xiao Tao is here?"
Tao Zhi blinked his eyes while carrying the things, and came to his senses.
I couldn't go anymore, so I just stepped forward and said a little embarrassedly: "I want to eat the dishes made by grandpa."
Grandpa Jiang laughed loudly, and stepped aside: "Come in, it's cold outside."
Tao Zhi went in, put the things in his hands on the dining table next to him, and saw the garbage in the old man's hand: "Grandpa is going to take out the garbage? Give it to me."
Grandpa Jiang even said no, Tao Zhi has already taken over.
The little girl was wearing a red coat, bouncing down, looking cheerful and lively, not at all the same as the stuffy gourd in their house.
Grandpa Jiang opened the door and waited for a while, when footsteps were heard in the corridor, Tao Zhi shrank his neck and jumped back.
The room was warm, she rubbed her aching palms, changed her shoes, and let out a long breath of comfort.
Grandpa Jiang poured her a glass of warm water.
Tao Zhi thanked him for taking it, and carefully glanced inside.
"Ah Huai is not at home, so I have to come back in the afternoon." Grandpa Jiang said.
Tao Zhi sat on the sofa, obediently holding a water glass.
Grandpa Jiang sighed: "Ah Huai is a sensible child, but he didn't have a good family, he has a dull temper, and he rarely plays with his peers. He has a lot to worry about, and he also takes care of me. This old man." He paused, didn't continue, just looked up with a smile, "Grandpa is very happy that you can come and play, Ah Huai seems to be more lively when he is with you."
Tao Zhi nodded, but he didn't feel how lively Jiang Qihuai was when he was with her anyway.
This person is completely insulated from the word lively.
She chatted with the old man for a while, the young girl talked a lot and talked interestingly, which made the old man laugh all the time. Tired of chatting, the two of them will do something separately.
When Jiang Qihuai came back, it was approaching evening, when he entered the door and raised his eyes, he saw someone more in the living room.
Grandpa Jiang was sitting in the rocking chair by the window reading a book with glasses on. Tao Zhi moved a small stool and sat by the coffee table with a paper spread out in front of him.
He wasn't at home, so she didn't go into his bedroom, and just lay on the coffee table with a pen to do the questions.
The sunset was cut into neat oblique squares by the old window frame through the glass window, and her hair was shrouded in the dim yellow afterglow. At that moment, her whole body was very bright.
like light.
Jiang Qihuai was in a trance for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Tao Zhi just heard the voice and raised his head.
She looked at him from a distance away from the living room, with a big smile on the corner of her mouth: "You're back!"
she said cheerfully.
Jiang Qihuai's heart skipped a beat, and his fingers curled up.
The light directly penetrates the body softly, wraps the heart quietly, and then slowly expands bit by bit.
Something mixed with strange emotions poured out uncontrollably.
He pursed his lips and said nothing, changed his shoes and walked into the living room.
"I have something to show you." Tao Zhi sat on the small bench and turned around, stretched her arms, hooked the straps on the sofa and pulled her small bag, then hung her head down to dig inside.
After a long time, she pulled out a test paper, which was a little crumpled by her stuffing, she unfolded it, and impatiently held it up high in front of him.
This paper was specially given to her by Jiang Hesheng, and it was filled with simple basic questions. Tao Zhi poked his head out from under the paper and looked up at him with bright eyes: "Look, I got everything right!"
The living room was quiet except for the cheerful voice of the girl. Grandpa Jiang raised his eyes from the book, glanced this way quietly, then lowered his head as if nothing had happened, turned his body to the side, and turned his back to them.
Jiang Qihuai met her expectant eyes, and the corners of his lips finally couldn't help but bend.
He raised his hand, the palm of his hand rested on top of her head, he fell down after a moment, and rubbed gently.
"I saw it, it was powerful," he whispered.
