later…
Nothing new happened after that. After a period of time, the first-year high school girl no longer appeared outside the classroom of the third and sixth class, and Gu Ningzi still loved school.
The roommates are tacit, everyone knows that the girl is out of play, but whether it is out of play from the beginning, or is out of play after getting along, it is unknown.
Chi Nuan was dressed tightly, with a scarf and a hat, and went home for the weekend on a cold and windy evening. The heating air conditioner is turned on at home, and a small plane tree in a thin cotton jacket is lying in the cradle in the living room. The wind chimes hanging above the cradle are softly singing children's songs. He plays with himself, and keeps kicking his legs. The kick flew, and the little sock also kicked off one.
Chi Nuan gently put his socks back on. Xiao Wutong's eyes turned to Chi Nuan's direction, and her mouth was babbling as if she wanted to talk to her.
"Nuan Nuan, wait a little longer, dinner will be ready soon." Chi Qingchuan probed in the kitchen.
Chi Nuan and Xiao Wutong played for a while, and three dishes and one soup were served. Chi Qingchuan put sweet and sour pork ribs on Chi Nuan, and kept telling her to eat more: "You came back recently to lose weight once, are you too tired from studying and can't keep up with nutrition?"
Chi Nuan said, "No, I ate a lot. - Will my sister-in-law come back for dinner?"
Chi Qingchuan said: "It is said that the real estate advertisement I shot last time has a good response. This time I received a new advertisement. I have to go out of town for 7 to 10 days, and I have been there for two days."
Chi Nuan: "How did Xiao Wutong arrange it?"
Chi Qingchuan said, "I gave Aunt Lu a salary increase and asked her to help during the day."
Chi Nuan nodded, seeing that Chi Qingchuan was still serving food for himself: "...Brother, that's enough! You can eat it yourself."
In the evening, Chi Nuan took Xiao Wutong to bed together. When I was half asleep and half awake, I noticed that there was movement by my side, and I thought to myself, is Gu Ningzi not sleeping well tonight? He vaguely wanted to hold her hand, but suddenly woke up with palpitations.
- No Gu Ningzi.
Time flies to the end of December.
Christmas Eve, almost all the shops along the street are playing Christmas songs, and all kinds of Christmas decorations are full of eyeballs. Chi Nuan and her roommates went to dinner outside the school to celebrate the festival. While waiting for the meal, Chi Nuan was still reading the questions, Du Min stretched out her hand and pressed it on her question book: "Okay, give yourself an hour off and join us. Let's chat."
Chi Nuan looked at the smiling eyes of her roommates, and embarrassedly put the question book into her schoolbag.
"Can you make it to the single-digit ranking in this monthly test?" Zhao Jingjing filled everyone's cups with barley tea, "I think you've been working hard in the past few months."
"Hang." Chi Nuan took a sip of tea.
Xu Dan patted the table and focused the three people's attention on himself: "What do you say? Will the New Year's Eve event proposed by Zhou Damao go? - This is the last New Year's Eve in my high school career, everyone next year. Not sure where they are scattered."
Zhou Damao encouraged everyone to celebrate New Year's Eve collectively in the class today. There is a firework show by the river, and I heard that this year's scale is extraordinarily large. When Xu Dan asked this question, it was obvious that he wanted to go.
Zhao Jingjing and Du Min also love to join in the fun, and said without any suspense: "Of course!"
Xu Dan: "Okay, three to one, Nuan Nuan obeys unconditionally."
Chi Nuan: "…"
The first dish was on the table, Xu Dan quickly put down his chopsticks and grabbed it, seeing Chi Nuan's face hesitant to say anything, he giggled: "Don't worry, Zhou Damao has already said, he will be responsible for our transportation and transportation. The accommodation problem, the ticket is packed!"
After eating, the four of them came out of the small restaurant and plunged into the jewelry store on the street to hang out. Tonight's food was a little salty, so Chi Nuan went to buy milk tea for everyone.
There were two girls standing outside the shop where they often drank, Chi Nuan waiting in the back.
"Why didn't you hear about Gu Ningzi for a long time?" said one of the girls.
When Leng Ding heard the words "Gu Ningzi", Chi Nuan was startled and wondered if she had heard it wrong.
"What else to mention, she can't possibly like me, it's boring." Another girl replied listlessly.
Chi Nuan pretended to look casually, and found that the girl in front of her with a ponytail who chased after Gu Ningzi some time ago.
"It's up to people. You have such a good personality. Few people will dislike you. Maybe persistence will have results?"
"No," the ponytail girl took the milk tea handed by the clerk and shared a cup with her companion: "She has a girlfriend, and she likes each other very much."
"Huh? Did she tell you that?"
"Um."
"Excuse me, reject your excuse, and I haven't seen her come and go with anyone..."
The two left the milk tea shop while talking. Chi Nuan walked forward. The clerk was waiting for her to order. Chi Nuan looked at the price list and suddenly lost her words.
I always thought that it would pass and it would be fine, but who knew that Gu Ningzi had become her heart disease, and there was no cure.
Gu Ningzi did not come to the evening self-study. Before the evening self-study began, the study committee gave Chi Nuan a peace fruit. Zhou Damao was a bit more fanciful, and gave each girl in the class a red rose.
Du Min looked at him with admiration: "Okay, it's quite a routine."
Zhou Damao straightened his chest: "Forgive your ignorance."
Du Min rolled his eyes.
The tense two-day monthly exam ended, and on the evening of December 31, the New Year's Eve activities began.
Zhou Damao stole his father's car keys and drove to school to pick up Chi Nuan and them. Holding the steering wheel, he turned his head handsomely: "Get in the car."
Du Min's expression was extremely disgusting: "You won't be stopped by the traffic police halfway, right? You are driving without a license."
Zhou Damao: "Do you think I look like a minor?"
Everyone: "… "
Zhou Damao also realized that his statement was a bit self-defeating: "I have a book! I'm an adult! I'm repeating in elementary school!"
Everyone: "..."
"..." Zhou Damao squeaked at the car horn impatiently: "Can you get on?"
The four girls were all crammed into the back seat, and Zhao Jingjing asked him, "I don't care if I have a book, can you drive?"
Zhou Damao grinned: "I underestimate your brother Zhou."
Although Zhou Damao is usually not very reliable, his driving skills are really good. The girls all relaxed, Zhou Damao was proud for a while and turned on the car stereo.
As soon as the deafening prelude sounded, Xu Dan laughed.
"..." Zhou Damao silently closed.
Du Min smiled and said, "Dr. Zhou's hobby... It's pretty good. This song is very refreshing."
Zhou Damao's father is a psychologist who opened an independent studio and is well-known in Yuncheng. When everyone mentions him, they say Dr. Zhou.
Chi Nuan laughed along with them, thinking over and over in her mind all the scenes she once sat in Gu Ningzi's car.
Gu Ningzi took her to this street; they even let go of Kongming lanterns there by the riverside.
…
There are not a few Yuncheng people who choose to come to the riverside for New Year's Eve. When Chi Nuan and the others arrived, it was close to 10 o'clock. A few students arrived first and were setting up tents. It was windy and cold by the riverside. They came early and waited abruptly for the New Year's Eve, which was really unbearable.
Chi Nuan and the others came to help when they got out of the car, and finally everyone got into the tent to pass the time.
Zhou Damao used to take a card and fight the landlord, and one after another, some classmates came. Xu Dan asked Zhou Damao, "Are you coming at the same table?"
Zhou Damao kowtowed the seeds: "I know it on my toes, how could she come?"
Chi Nuan put her hands in her pockets, there was no wind in the tent, but she still felt a little cold.
After eleven thirty, the sky began to snow. The game was over, and everyone came out of the tent. Jiang Xin was facing the cruise ship, and there were couples kissing in the snow. Zhou Damao did not know what he did to provoke Xu Dan, and was chased and beaten all the way.
Chi Nuan sighed into the palm of his hand, and stood in front of the handrail to look at the brightly lit high-rise buildings on the other side of the river, where the New Year's Eve fireworks show will be held later.
In the noisy environment, snowflakes fell silently on the treetops.
The dazzling headlights came from far and near, accompanied by the roar of the engine, the white sports car came galloping through the snow, and parked beautifully on the side of the road.
Chi Nuan and the others turned to look.
Amidst the fluttering snowflakes, the people in the sports car got out of the car while talking on the phone.
"..." Xu Dan stopped chasing and playing with Zhou Damao and covered his heart, "My girlish heart..."
Zhou Damao's cell phone kept ringing, he hissed like a toothache, and connected: "Hey boss, what are your orders?"
The cold eyes behind the lens captured Zhou Damao's position, and Gu Ningzi said to the phone: "Bring a hot drink, come and get it."
"... I'll wipe it!" Zhou Damao walked to the side of the car in small steps, the trunk opened, Zhou Damao picked up the beverage packaging bag inside, and walked to distribute it among the classmates with both hands full.
"Gu Ningzi invited it." He said while posting.
Both male and female classmates were amazed at Gu Ningzi's arrival. Gu Ningzi came over, and they gathered around to talk to her.
Zhou Damao thought about it all the way, and when he sent the hot drink to Chi Nuan and the others, he finally couldn't help but ask: "Hey, do you all like this kind of thing? Come out with the wind and come up with a little surprise?"
Du Min took the drink and comforted him perfunctorily: "Oh, you're not bad, didn't you even give us roses on Christmas Eve, creating a little romance?"
Zhou Damao nodded thoughtfully: "I learned... That rose was also given by Gu Ningzi - just kidding! How can my pocket money be so wasted??"
Everyone: "… "
Holding the hot drink in the palm of his hand, Chi Nuan took a deep breath. The warm and sweet liquid flowed down the throat into the stomach, like a little spark that started a prairie fire, making the whole body warm.
The countdown to the New Year's Eve has begun, and everyone around is shouting: "Ten~nine~eight~..."
Chi Nuan brushed off the snow from the tips of her hair, and out of the corner of her eye, she found Gu Ningzi.
The two were not far apart, and Gu Ningzi looked at the other side of the river calmly.
"...Three~two~one, happy new year!"
"Bang!"
The grand fireworks came as promised, lighting up the night sky of Yuncheng. The snow fluttered, and the students said Happy New Year to each other, and excitedly hooked their shoulders. With the fireworks over the river as the background, the young faces were full of vivid joy.
Chi Nuan went to see Gu Ningzi again.
Gu Ningzi just turned around.
Someone was running back and forth between them, and the two looked at each other briefly. Just when Chi Nuan thought that Gu Ningzi was about to look away, Gu Ningzi moved her lips: "Happy New Year."
Chi Nuan looked at her unexpectedly, hesitated for a few seconds, and smiled slightly: "Happy birthday."
The snow was getting denser, Gu Ningzi didn't say anything, and turned to the fireworks on the other side.
- "When is your birthday?"
-"how?"
- "Well, what day is it?"
—“…Can I make an advance for a birthday present?”
Different from the cold winter, Chi Nuan still remembers that the sunlight in summer is very long, and also remembers Gu Ningzi's slightly closed eyes and the soft lips she kissed.
