It wasn't until Lu Xiran returned to the dormitory and saw the person hiding in the quilt that she knew something unhappy happened again. Because she was afraid of heights, she didn't dare to climb up, so she could only hold the fence and pull Su Xian's quilt.
"Xianxian, didn't you say that you had a lot of club stuff today and would be back late? Why are you back so early?"
"I'm not going." Su Xian's voice was as soft as a mosquito. "I'm not in the mood."
Lu Xiran couldn't pull the quilt anymore: "Put your head out and talk to me. I don't dare to climb up."
Su Xian then stuck her head out, her disheveled hair sticking to her face. She felt a sense of loss she had never felt before. When she was in a bad mood, it was as if she was sick. She used to be used to being alone and free, and didn't have so many emotions. She didn't understand why she was becoming more and more emotional now.
Is it just because Zuo Yueyao ignored her
Or was it because Zuo Yueyao refused to listen to her complete explanation
But what did she need to explain? To explain that he and Wen He were not in the relationship he thought they were? Or to explain that she really didn't like Wen He and just treated him as an ordinary friend.
But why should she explain to Zuo Yueyao
Why did she want to explain everything to Wen He in front of Zuo Yueyao that day
These days, she hung up all of Wen He's calls and didn't reply to any of his text messages. Su Xian felt a little sorry for Wen He again, but she didn't understand why she felt sorry for Wen He
why why why!
These questions made Su Xian's mind a mess. Su Xian suddenly realized that the stupidest thing he did as a child was to look forward to growing up.
What’s good about growing up? It’s so troublesome!
"Ran Ran, he ignored me."
"Who is it?"
"Who else?"
"Senior Brother Zuo? How is that possible? Senior Brother will ignore you even if he ignores anyone else. He is so good to you."
"Really? I'm not lying to you. He ignored me and hasn't contacted me for several days."
"Isn't it normal not to look for you? You know that I'm very busy lately." Lu Xiran comforted.
"It's different. This time it's different."
"What's the difference?" Lu Xiran was confused.
"I don't know." Su Xian's dejected look made Lu Xiran feel distressed: "Anyway, it's different."
"I think you might be overthinking it. Senior brother is really busy."
Others may not be aware of how good Zuo Yueyao is to Su Xian, but as a witness who witnessed it with his own eyes, Lu Xiran definitely has the right to speak on it.
Su Xian is lively and cheerful by nature, while Zuo Yueyao is quiet and steady. It stands to reason that it would be difficult for two people with completely opposite personalities to get together, but Su Xian and Zuo Yueyao not only got together, but they also got along very well.
Lu Xiran knew that such harmony came from Zuo Yueyao's tolerance and humility.
This is probably what the legend means, one is making trouble while the other is laughing.
In the next few days, Su Xian was depressed. If she was unhappy, Lu Xiran would be even less happy. The dormitory was already a little dull because of Yao Jing's presence. Even though these were cured, Yao Jing's dullness had not yet been cured and Su Xian relapsed.
She had no motivation to do anything and her appetite was less than usual. This was the first time Lu Xiran had seen Su Xian like this. She was a little helpless and had to send a message to Ren Shang, wanting to know if Zuo Yueyao really ignored Su Xian.
When Ren Shang received the message, he was having dinner outside with his current girlfriend. Halfway through the meal, Lu Xiran's text message came in and he took a look at it.
"Brother, are you available now? I have something to talk to you about."
"Speak." Ren Shang ignored the stare of the beautiful woman opposite him and replied directly.
"Did Su Xian have a fight with Senior Brother Zuo? She has been unhappy these past two days. Su Xian said that Senior Brother Zuo ignored her."
"have no idea."
"All right."
Lu Xiran put down the phone and didn't dare to disturb him anymore, but just as she put it down, Ren Shang's message came again.
"Tell me something nice, and if I'm happy, I'll go and find out for you."
Lu Xiran didn't know what sounded good, so she replied honestly, "But I can't."
Then Ren Shang never replied to his message again, so Lu Xiran had to find another way.
"Who are you texting with? Are you dating your ex behind my back again? Don't forget what you promised me." The beautiful woman's sweet voice made it difficult for the man to control her, but Ren Shang was not yet a real man, so his sweet voice was admirable, but it could not shake his mind.
"Eat quickly, I have something else to do."
Ren Shang came out of the hotel, sent the beautiful woman to the car, and then walked along the street while calling Zuo Yueyao.
"What's up?"
Sure enough, this person was not in a good mood.
"It's okay. I missed you and gave you a call." Ren Shang pretended not to know and made a routine joke.
"It's okay, I'm hanging up." The person on the other end of the phone seemed impatient.
"I'm fine." Ren Shang deliberately said, "It seems that the one who's in trouble is your little cousin."
"What's up with her?"
Ren Shang sighed in a fake manner: "I don't know about that. Lu Xiran told me that she has been unhappy recently and doesn't eat. She must be starving now, otherwise she wouldn't call me for help."
There was a sudden snort from the other end of the phone: "If you say she's depressed, I might believe you, but if you say she doesn't eat, do you believe it yourself?"
Ren Shang cursed himself in annoyance. He forgot that Su Xian and that girl Lu Xiran were comparable. Both of them would rather die than starve to death.
Ren Shang smiled awkwardly: "Okay, I admit that I made up the sentence about not eating, but the previous sentence is indeed true."
"so what?"
"That's not like you, bro. Don't you care?"
"Someone else will take care of him, it's not my turn."
As a veteran in the love field, Ren Shang immediately understood the other party's intention based on just one sentence and roughly guessed the entanglement involved.
It seems like someone is just jealous.
"Okay, anyway, I've passed it on to you. As for what to do with it, it's up to you. I can't interfere." Since no one was around, Ren Shang didn't worry about getting beaten up if he said a few more words: "But I remind you, this girl is not as hard-hearted as us guys. She has never been in a relationship before, and someone is pursuing her out of the blue. It's her first time, so even if she doesn't agree at first, after a little time, she will soften her heart and agree."
Regardless of whether the other person's face was red or dark, Ren Shang just said happily: "Once she agrees, it will be her first love. People all have a first love complex, especially young girls. The complex is even stronger. Once it is inserted, it will be difficult to pull it out. And even if you pull it out in the future, I'm afraid you will never forget it in this life."
"There's a saying that goes, first love is the most unforgettable. Hello, hello. Damn it, hang up on me!"
Ren Shang whistled and was in a very good mood.
In the office, the professor was looking through the surgical report submitted by Zuo Yueyao, and nodded in satisfaction at this very detailed report.
But today, Zuo Yueyao seemed a little absent-minded.
The professor knocked on the table: "What do you think of my suggestion just now?"
Zuo Yueyao came back to his senses: "What?"
The professor took off his glasses and said, "I mean, after you graduate from college, I can introduce you to a foreign country. There are several very good universities abroad."
“I think China is pretty good.”
Zuo Yueyao's rejection was beyond the professor's expectation: "Don't you know that you are a piece of gold?"
"You said I was a piece of gold." Zuo Yueyao showed a far-fetched smile: "Since I am a piece of gold, I can shine wherever I am."
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you. Your mouth is getting more and more powerful. I don't know who you learned this from." The professor smiled indulgently.
Who did Zuo Yueyao learn this from? A human-shaped answer naturally appeared in Zuo Yueyao's mind.
"Professor, what does it feel like to fall in love for the first time?" Because he is both his teacher and friend, Zuo Yueyao wants to find the answer to his long-standing confusion from this person who has experienced it.
The professor noticed the student's absent-mindedness, so he arranged the materials one by one, pushed them aside, folded his hands, and looked at Zuo Yueyao tenderly: "As for first love, some say it is sweet, some say it is bitter, and some say it is like a dream, but I think that first love is like a newborn baby coming into this world, his brain is blank, and he is full of curiosity and fantasy about everything in this world, he wants to touch everything, he wants to try everything, sweet and sour, bitter and spicy, all kinds of tastes."
“First love is precious. Its preciousness lies in its innocence and beauty. Of course, regret is also a valuable part.”
"What does it mean to like someone?" Zuo Yueyao asked again. Even though he was an excellent scholar, he was not as good as Ren Shang in some aspects. Of course, Zuo Yueyao would not be stupid enough to ask Ren Shang such a question. What came out of his mouth was usually not a good thing.
The professor also answered very seriously the non-academic questions asked by the students he was proud of.
"Liking someone is not an abstract concept that can be traced back to a trace. Everyone has common characteristics when they like someone. For example, you will take the initiative to approach someone and shorten the distance between you. The other person's every move will affect your emotions. Even the state you are in with the other person is different from your usual state. If the other person gets too close to someone of the opposite sex, you will feel sad and angry. If the other person needs help, you will spare no effort to help. No matter when, you will unconsciously think of this person in your mind."
The professor smiled like an old naughty boy: "You kid, do you have someone you like?"
"Probably." Ren Shang had asked similar questions more than once, but he never admitted it because Zuo Yueyao himself didn't understand what liking someone was all about.
Now, he probably understood why he left in anger that day, why he was so moved when she said he was a relative, and the silence for a few days was just to let himself think clearly, whether he felt sympathy, pity, or...
Perhaps, this kind of emotion was planted a long time ago.
