"Thank you." Xu Sui picked up the water next to him and quickly raised his head to drink the water, avoiding Zhou Jingze's sight. She took a few sips of water, and her throat felt a little better.
"Are you sad?" Hu Qianxi asked.
"Him?" Sheng Nanzhou sneered, turned around and approached Zhou Jingze, stroking his chest with his hands, and said in an artificial tone, "Shuhuan, you have no heart!"
If Zhou Jingze wasn't surprised, he leaned into his ear, and said in a doting voice, "Good boy, I'll touch you when I go back tonight."
Sheng Nanzhou withdrew from him like an electric shock, kept a distance from Zhou Jingze, and cursed: "Stop fucking seducing me, I'm straight!"
"Your Lord Zhou doesn't care about the breakup, it's sad to lose him when 'Hey' is lost." Sheng Nanzhou said.
"No way, you picked it up and kept it for less than a month, and you took it to the hospital for injections or something, and left so soon?" Hu Xixi said.
"Well," Zhou Jingze responded lightly, and said in a low voice, "white-eyed cat."
After the group finished eating, Zhou Jingze went to the toilet behind the cafeteria to wash his hands. When he came out, he wiped his hands with a tissue and said, "Let's go."
"Bye bye fat girl, bye sister Xu." Sheng Nanzhou waved to them with a smile.
Xu Sui nodded, and Hu Qianxi immediately clenched her fists and cursed, "I beg you, big-headed ghost, who wants to see you."
After they left, Xu Sui and Hu Qianxi walked back to the dormitory side by side. Although they knew about Bai Yuyue and Zhou Jingze's breakup, they decided to pretend not to know.
Because Bai Yuyue lost her love this time, she seemed really sad.
A new week is approaching, and it happened to rain the night before. When I opened the door and walked out, the air was filled with the scent of green grass, mixed with the smell of rain soaked into the soil.
Not long after Xu Sui got on the bus, the weather was ever-changing, and the sun came out in a short while. The bright sun penetrated the window glass, which was a bit dazzling. Xu Sui subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover his eyes.
I made an appointment with the other party for a tutoring interview at four o'clock in the afternoon. Xu Sui changed buses three times in a row. Because she was sweating, her clothes stuck to her back. ,Paled face.
Finally, Xu Sui got off the car before four o'clock. She walked into Amber Lane and searched for No. 79 Amber Lane one by one according to the address given by her senior.
Not long after getting off the car, Xu Sui still had a severe nausea in her body. She walked slowly. Suddenly, she saw a convenience store not far away. The name of the store was 711. There was a red number 7 in the middle of the store sign. is a green border.
Xu Sui walked over, and the automatic sensor slowly opened, making a "ding".
"Welcome." A lazy and emotionless voice sounded.
Xu Sui looked over, and it turned out to be Zhou Jingze. The boy nestled casually on the chair at the cash register, his dark eyelashes drooping, his expression tired, as if he hadn't woken up.
He is biting a cigarette obliquely, his elbows are bent, his muscles are tight, and he is playing games with his head down. Viewed from the side, the spines on the back of his neck are prominent, cold and attractive.
Xing was frozen in the same posture for too long, Zhou Jingze raised his hand and rubbed his neck, raised his head, saw Xu Sui, raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why are you?"
"I'm here to do something." Xu Sui's tone was a little nervous.
Zhou Jingze nodded indifferently, lowered his head and played the game again. Xu Sui turned around and stood in a row of freezers, picking and choosing. The sound of the game "KO" kept coming from behind him. Zhou Jingze was obviously not looking at her, but Xu Sui was extremely nervous, because the two were alone in the same space.
Xu Sui was stunned for a moment, forgetting what she wanted to buy when she entered the convenience store. The air-conditioning in the freezer rushed over her, making her shiver. Finally, she panickedly picked out a box of white peach-flavored milk.
When checking out, Zhou Jingze threw his phone aside and stood up to scan the code of the product. When Xu Sui was paying, Zhou Jingze noticed that she was strange, her face was extremely pale, and her eyes were particularly dark and weak.
"What's wrong with you? You don't look very well." Zhou Jingze said in a low voice, staring at her.
"A little motion sickness." Xu Sui replied.
Zhou Jingze touched his left cheek with the tip of his tongue and smiled, and said, "Wait."
He turned around to find a jacket, shook it up and down vigorously, and a box of crushed sugar fell into his palm. Zhou Jingze opened the lid, picked up a piece of candy, tossed it into his mouth, the tip of his tongue was wrapped around the piece of candy, the mint candy was bitten by him, and his voice was indistinct: "Hold out your hand."
Xu Sui's slender eyelashes trembled, he stretched out his palm, and suddenly, out of thin air, he dropped a handful of green mints, splashing like a reward for her. She didn't dare to raise her head for fear of meeting his sight, she stared blankly at his hand, the knuckles of her fingers were sharp, and there was a black mole on the tiger's mouth, dangling in front of her eyes.
"I often eat this candy, and it seems to be helpful for stopping dizziness." Zhou Jingze had a cigarette in his mouth, his voice was vague.
Five minutes later, Xu Sui walked out of the convenience store. She stood under the sun, tightly holding the candy in her palm, her palm was full of sweat. That day, the sun made her almost melt, but she was extremely happy.
Xu Sui opened a candy and put the candy wrapper in her pocket. The mint candy was cold, but she tasted the sweetness.
Unexpectedly, coincidences of fate happened one after another on the same day. She took the wrong road and walked around for half an hour to find No. 79 Amber Lane, only to find that this house was behind the convenience store 711.
Xu Sui stood at the door and rang the doorbell politely. The other party let out a "hey" and quickly walked over to open the door. It was an aunt who opened the door.
The nanny led Xu Sui in, and only then did she meet the real hostess of the house. The other party was a woman in her forties, with a glamorous appearance, wearing a hip-wrapping skirt, full of charm.
"Xiao Xu, right? Your senior sister has already told me, just call me Aunt Sheng, come and eat some fruit, I just cut it." The other party said enthusiastically.
"Thank you," Xu Sui looked at her and asked, "Who wants to make up lessons?"
"Look at my brain, I forgot to say, it's my youngest son, I told him to go downstairs," Aunt Sheng shouted to the stairs, "Sheng Yanjia, come down quickly, the new teacher is here, don't pester your brother Playing games."
no response.
Aunt Sheng smiled awkwardly: "Xiao Xu, why don't you go up with me? I just want to see your trial class."
"Okay." Xu Sui nodded.
Xu Sui followed the woman upstairs, and the two walked to the third room on the left. Xu Sui stood at the door and saw two people playing games at a glance.
"Sheng Yanjia, you are still pestering Brother Jingze to play games, I'll give you three seconds, get out," Aunt Sheng said calmly, "Uncle Li, who collects waste downstairs, has wanted to collect your game console for a long time."
The sound of the game stops abruptly—
Hearing the familiar name, Xu Sui's heart skipped a beat, Zhou Jingze put down the handle of the switch, turned around and saw Xu Sui was stunned for a moment, then laughed, what a fucking coincidence.
"Class is over." Zhou Jingze stood up and patted the child's head.
Sheng Yanjia hugged Zhou Jingze's trouser legs, begging bitterly: "Brother, please, take me to another round.
"Don't fight, you're too good at it," Zhou Jingze squatted down and opened his hands one by one, grinning lazily, "Take a good class."
Zhou Jingze raised his eyebrows when he walked out of the room, and stood in front of Xu Sui, meeting the doubts in her eyes, he briefly explained: "He is Sheng Nanzhou's younger brother, and my family lives nearby. The convenience store belongs to his family. I will help Watch for a while, because Aunt Sheng is going to play cards."
Being sued by the junior, Aunt Sheng was very embarrassed. She pushed Zhou Jingze out and preemptively said: "Don't block Teacher Xiao Xu from class!"
"OK."
The trial class time was relatively short. After Xu Sui talked for about 30 minutes, Aunt Sheng expressed her satisfaction and asked her youngest son to welcome the new teacher.
Sheng Yanjia had curly hair, and his fat little face clearly showed reluctance, but his mouth could only say against his will: "Mr. Xu, welcome."
Xu Sui smiled, Aunt Sheng sent her out together, just happened to meet Zhou Jingze sitting on the sofa and was about to leave, Aunt Sheng immediately stopped him: "Where are you going?"
"Where else can I go? Go home." Zhou Jingze smiled helplessly.
"No, you're the only one in your house. Don't worry, stay here for dinner. Auntie will make you your favorite roasted eggplant." Aunt Sheng said.
Zhou Jingze smiled lazily: "If this continues, I will almost become your son."
"That's just right. I've wanted to sever the mother-child relationship with Sheng Nanzhou for a long time, and you just continue." Aunt Sheng said expressionlessly.
Zhou Jingze lowered his head and laughed so that his shoulders trembled, his expression was relaxed and happy, and he didn't leave in the end.
Aunt Sheng sent Xu Sui out, took her hand, and said in a reproachful tone, "I told you to stay for dinner."
Xu Sui shook his head with a smile: "I still have something to do, and I have to go to the library in a while."
"Xiao Xu, I was very satisfied with your trial class just now. Sheng Yanjia will take the quiz in half a year next year. This kid's grades-I can raise a pig better than him. I hope you can help him. Of course , I know your concerns about the distance, it is indeed a bit of a struggle to come here, why don't you think about it tonight, and then you can contact your senior sister."
"Okay." Xu Sui nodded.
At night, when Xu Sui returned to her bedroom, she found a clean glass jar and put all the mints that Zhou Jingze gave her in it. She couldn't bear to eat any of them.
At ten o'clock, she was still alone in the dormitory, Xu Sui propped his chin and looked at the glass jar in a daze. Suddenly, Hu Qianxi pushed the door open and entered, and said, "Sui Sui, I don't think I have one."
"Think." Xu Sui smiled sweetly.
"I heard from Liang Shuang today that you went to interview for a tutor, how is it going?" Hu Qianxi sat down.
Xu Sui poured her a glass of water, and thought for a while: "It's good. Coincidentally, the family I interviewed for was actually Sheng Nanzhou's family, and the student I was going to teach was his younger brother."
"Amber Lane?! Damn, who took you so far away? The school is a bit far away from there. You're exhausted. Sui Sui," Hu Qianxi said with distressed expression, "But Sheng Nanzhou's younger brother seems to be looking for a tutor."
"Well," Xu Sui replied, she remembered what she asked Hu Qianxi, her tone was hesitant and she was afraid of showing that she cared too much, "Xixi, I just heard from Aunt Sheng that Zhou Jingze lives alone?"
Hu Qianxi sighed: "Anyway, their family relationship is a bit complicated. They used to live as a family in Amber Lane. His mother passed away in the third year of junior high, and his father planned to move out, but Zhou Jingze refused. Until now He still lives in that villa, he is the only one, fortunately he has raised a German shepherd since he was a child, so he can accompany him."
"That's it." Xu Sui responded, and she suddenly remembered the smile in Zhou Jingze's eyes when Aunt Sheng left him for dinner in the afternoon when Zhou Jingze was sitting on the sofa.
Not long after, the senior sister sent a message asking her if she had considered the matter of tutoring. Xu Sui recalled those dark and silent eyes, and edited in the dialog box:
After thinking about it, I want to go.
