Shi Hai poked his head out of the bed, touched his phone, and tried to open his eyelids, "Seven forty..."
He yawned lazily. The snoring in his dormitory rose and fell, and there was a sense of hibernation. It was getting colder and colder in Qingcheng, and getting up every morning was almost impossible.
Oh my!
He struggled in the bed, finally turned over, yawned, and checked WeChat.
"Shi Hai, I'm not feeling well. Please cancel the tutoring this week." Tang Zuo's WeChat message.
He looked at the time again and saw that it was sent at two in the morning.
He propped himself up and half sat up, "Okay, where do you feel uncomfortable?"
After waiting for a while, Tang Zuo didn't reply.
He crawled back into bed, closed his eyes and dozed off for a while. When he woke up, it was already daybreak. At half past nine, he found his phone vibrating. He tapped it and answered it. "Sister? Oh... Tang Zhao told me that she was not feeling well today and would not have tutoring today... Tomorrow? She didn't seem to say... Wait, let me check again."
Shi Hai exited and looked at the WeChat message again, then pressed it back, "She said it was this week, which means there will be no tutoring tomorrow. No, she didn't say where she felt uncomfortable. No, I don't know. Hey... Sister, I really don't know..."
"..." He picked up the phone and took a look, "Hang up?"
"It's so weird." Shi Hai stretched and checked WeChat again. Tang Zuo still hadn't replied.
What is going on
"If you have any questions, you can come to me." Shi Hai thought about it and sent the message.
Another dialog box kept jumping, Michelle's.
"So early in the morning... It's horrible." With a disgusted look on his face, he stuffed the pillow under his waist and replied slowly.
Tang Zuo sat at the desk with his face buried in his knees, leaving only his eyes exposed. There were two missed calls on the mobile phone on the desk.
Rhetoric.
She stopped fighting.
She did have a slight cold and just sneezed a few times, which was a negligible discomfort. She actually hadn't figured out how to face Shi Ci.
Shi Ci asked her to think about it? Consider whether to be her girlfriend
Since last night, Tang Zuo has been going through the chat records between Shi Ci and her, replaying every moment of their time together in her mind, scene by scene.
The advantage of memories, especially unforgettable memories, is that they are clear and do not lie. You can pause, rewind, or even enlarge or view them in close-up at any time.
The way Shi Ci looked at her, his care and love for her, and those little movements that seemed strange...
Tang Zuo then realized that she had been deceiving herself. Deep in her heart, she should have already noticed Shi Ci's affection for her.
Yes, if it weren't for her affection, they wouldn't have had so many interactions, and she had been enjoying it selfishly, not daring to think about it seriously or face it.
Shi Ci asked her: "Can you accept my gender?"
If it was anyone else, Tang Zuo couldn't say for sure, but if it was Shi Ci, Tang Zuo asked himself honestly that the answer was acceptable.
But to be her girlfriend...
The scene in front of Tang Zhao became blurry, then clear, and then blurry again.
She wanted to, but she didn't dare.
On Sunday afternoon, Sister Miu came to Shi Ci’s new residence.
The beginning of winter has just passed, and today is the real beginning of winter. There is water vapor on the glass, and it is not yet time for snow. The air is filled with damp and cold wind.
"The new house is nice." Sister Miu took off her coat, looked at Shi Ci's new house, and came to a conclusion.
The walls in the living room are an elegant grass green, the fabric sofa is light gray, and there is a large floor-to-ceiling window facing the river. The night view must be beautiful.
"I haven't been here much since the renovation." Shi Ci was dressed casually in a simple white sweater and apricot pants. He had a plain face and was curled up on the sofa.
Two cups of coffee on the coffee table were emitting curling hot steam.
A floor lamp was on, emitting a faint orange warm light. The floor heating was also on, and a variety show co-produced by Huang Lei and He Jiong from Mango TV was projected on the wall.
Sister Miu took a sip of coffee, her heart felt warm, and she looked at Shi Ci with inquiring eyes.
Shi Ci glanced over.
Sister Miu continued to look at her, her delicate red lips curved.
Shi Ci sighed, "What do you want to ask?"
Sister Miu said innocently, "Is that what you wanted to say?"
Shi Ci raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "I forgot to ask you last time, you and that Mr. Su..."
Miu said simply, "so far good."
Shi Ci stopped asking questions after that. She probably didn't realize that she sighed again, and Miu didn't ask her either. She drank her coffee leisurely and even talked about coffee. Shi Ci responded absentmindedly until she finally lost focus.
"Why, did that girl reject you?" Sister Miu asked her when she was not prepared.
“…” Shi Ci’s eyelids twitched and he looked at her expressionlessly.
"Oops!" Sister Miu giggled, "Did I get it right?"
"Oh my, is this the first girl who rejected our Professor Shi? What's going on? Did she walk too much at night? Did she have a car accident? Did it rain red?" The more Sister Miu spoke, the more she couldn't stop the corners of her mouth from rising wildly.
Shi Ci took a deep breath and turned his face away, not looking at her or answering her.
Miu let out a surprised sound. At Shi Ci's rare childish behavior, she smiled and said, "Not really. A bystander can see things more clearly. I think that little girl has you in her heart."
Sure enough, Shi Ci turned around and stared at her hesitantly.
Sister Miu almost laughed out loud, "Oh my god, Shi Ci, what's wrong with you? You're so worried about gains and losses. This is not like you."
With just a slight test, she found out everything she needed to know—not only did Shi Ci like the girl, but he was also rejected by her.
She could keep talking about this joke for a whole year!
Shi Ci pressed his forehead and curled the corners of his lips in self-mockery, "Hey, I also want to know what's wrong with me."
"Don't worry, don't worry, if you like her, just chase her. There is also a woman you can't catch up with, right?" Sister Miu said.
Shi Ci was silent for a while before he said, "If she doesn't like women, then there's nothing I can do."
Sister Miu looked at her and sighed, "It seems that you really like that little girl. This is the first time I see you so depressed. Tell me..." She moved closer, "What's so special about her?"
Shi Ci slightly raised the corners of his mouth. In Miu's eyes, it seemed that he thought of that girl. Shi Ci could not hide his inner love. Such a true expression of feelings made Miu even more curious.
"I don't understand it either. I have an unprecedented feeling. This is different from how I feel about Qiao Sha. We almost immediately identified each other..." Shi Ci murmured softly, "I knew I had feelings for Tang Zuo a long time ago. I don't want to force her, and I don't want to take advantage of her. She is really an excellent and good girl... I was thinking before that it doesn't matter even if Tang Zuo doesn't like me, but now, if he tells me that she doesn't like me, I'm afraid I can't accept it..."
"Oh my God, you're crazy, letting a little girl play you around..." The more Sister Miu listened, the wider her eyes widened, and she couldn't help but express her opinion.
"No, she doesn't know at all. It would be fine if she wanted to 'play tricks' on me..." Shi Ci's smile became a little bitter.
Sister Miu frowned, shook her head, and sighed, "You..." She said in a tone of disappointment, "How old are you? You are hopeless!"
Shi Ci also laughed and fell back on the sofa, "Ah..." She sighed, but there was light in her eyes, "Sister Miu, I'm done, I'm really screwed this time!"
"..." Sister Miu leaned over and punched her, "You are not motivated, you deserve it, you deserve it!"
The two of them laughed out loud together.
Under the gloomy sky, the colorful umbrellas on the school road are like small flowers, blooming one after another.
Shi Hai was holding a large dark red umbrella, and rain kept seeping down from the edge of the umbrella and falling to the ground. He tilted the umbrella towards Tang Zhao, "Yesterday you said you were not feeling well, are you feeling better now?"
"Hmm..." Tang Zuo responded, "Let's go down to Building 8. The rain is too heavy."
Building 8 was the closest teaching building to them. Shi Hai took the initiative to hold up an umbrella and reminded Tang Zuo, "Be careful with your steps. This road is really uneven..."
"By the way, what do you want to talk to me about?"
The Yip Fu Teaching Building is one of the older teaching buildings in NCU. It has dark walls, moss in the corners, and the view is obscured by rain and fog.
"I think you won't need tutoring anymore. There's still more than a month left. You can just follow your usual study habits and do a few more sets of real test questions." Tang Zuo said.
"That's not impossible..." Shi Hai was a little surprised, "But I think it's a bit sudden, is there any other reason?"
Tang Zhuo stared at the rain in silence for a while, then whispered, "Shi Hai, I don't want to hide it from you..."
Shi Hai watched her slender white fingers pin up the messed-up hair by her ears. Her long eyelashes were slightly closed, as if she was expressing some emotion. "I... seem to like Professor Shi."
A flash of lightning split the sky. Shi Hai was about to speak when there was a loud thunder. He swallowed and suspected that it was his ears that had a problem. "What, what did you just say?"
“It’s raining…”
The floor-to-ceiling window in Shi Ci's living room was filled with mist, a miniature version of the world after the rain.
Shi Ci was lying on the sofa, and Sister Miu was lying on the carpet. They both looked at the ceiling. They had no idea how many cups of coffee had been refilled on the coffee table. "If we want to have a heart-to-heart talk, I think alcohol would be more useful."
"I drank enough yesterday and don't want to drink anymore."
Miu said: "If it were me, I wouldn't want to have such a hassle in dating. I find it troublesome. Why do you bother?"
Shi Ci was too lazy to answer her.
"And you were willing to do it, my God, it's incomprehensible. You are such a stupid romantic."
"You're leaving now. Call a taxi." Shi Ci chased him away.
"I don't need to call a taxi," Sister Miu winked at her, "I have a date, Su came to pick me up, "Don't be jealous of me." She went to the bathroom to touch up her makeup and put on her coat, "Let me sort it out before I leave, so Tang Zuo is thirteen years younger than you, your brother likes her, you like her too, your brother confessed to her, you also confessed to her... Wow..."
"Shi Hai should be fine now," Shi Ci sat up, "Don't complicate things."
"Oh, that's what you think. Have you ever thought about it from Tang Zuo's perspective?" Miu said to the point.
Shi Ci was stunned.
"I'm leaving, bye." Sister Miu waved her hand.
Shi Ci sat on the sofa for a while and let out a sigh. She opened her phone, but there were no calls or private messages.
She pursed her lips and thought, never mind, she should indeed tell her silly brother. She dialed Shi Hai's number, but he didn't answer the first time. Feeling a little annoyed, she dialed again.
Unexpectedly, Shi Hai's tone also sounded annoyed, "Sister?"
Shi Ci frowned slightly.
Then I heard him say: "Just tell me what you want to say. I'm very upset now."
This brat.
He added: "I especially don't want to hear you speak."
Shi Ci smiled instead, "Did I offend you?"
Shi Hai snorted twice.
Shi Ci thought of Tang Zuo. If he had to say something, he seemed to feel a little bit sorry for Shi Hai.
She cleared her throat and said, "I'm sorry, I might say something that will make you angry."
Shi Hai paused and said cautiously, "Tell me about it."
Shi Ci stood up and looked at the floor-to-ceiling window. She walked over and looked at the rain scene. She thought of what Tang Zuo had said before. She said that she hoped to rent a house she liked in Ruicheng, a house that she could decorate herself and have a large bay window.
Shi Ci remembered Tang Zhuo's expression when she said this, her eyes were bright and full of hope for the future. She also remembered how she felt when she heard her say this, she wanted to hug her and tell her that this was definitely achievable, and she hoped that it would be in her life and in her dreams.
Shi Ci's heart softened, and he could speak more easily. "Shi Hai, I have something to tell you. I want to pursue Tang Zuo."
Shi Hai's side suddenly became deathly silent.
"Xiao Hai?" Shi Ci called him.
"Fuck!!!" Shi Hai roared angrily on the other end, and seemed to smash something, making a bang, and hung up the phone the next second.
The author has something to say: Me: Xiaohai, baby, mommy is sorry for you.
Shi Hai: Can you write a book in the romance section with me as the protagonist
Me: Mommy isn’t sorry to that extent.
