The people from Hucheng had already settled in Dexin, Xu Tingsheng and Lu Zhixin's work was basically completed, but because the acquisition was completed on Friday, the two of them didn't rush back and stayed for another day.
That night, Xu Tingsheng went shopping with Lu Zhixin for the first time, and it was the first time he saw the boldness of a rich girl shopping. He was so tired that he couldn't lift his arms.
The next day, he slept until noon and after dinner, Xu Tingsheng packed his luggage and knocked on Lu Zhixin's door.
Lu Zhixin dragged two suitcases over to open the door, and then handed one of them to Xu Tingsheng.
"The things in this box are all the things I bought yesterday, please help me bring them back to Yanzhou first." Lu Zhixin said.
Xu Tingsheng asked confusedly, "Aren't you going back?"
Lu Zhixin said: "I'm going to Hong Kong for a few days. The school has already asked for leave, and I'll be on the plane soon."
Xu Tingsheng was stunned for a moment, and said, "Then I'll take you to the airport."
"Didn't you even send me an Apple?" Lu Zhixin said, "Okay, you can send me there."
On the way to the airport, Xu Tingsheng finally couldn't hold back, and asked Lu Zhixin, "Why are you going to Hong Kong all of a sudden? I didn't know about it before."
Lu Zhixin flipped her hair, looked ahead and said, "Have you ever cared about me? I was busy for a few days to apply for a pass, and then I called and booked a ticket by your side. You didn't notice it at all, did you?"
Xu Tingsheng was silent for a while, then said, "I'm sorry."
Lu Zhixin seemed to be in a low mood, and said, "Then you must not know, I changed my department this semester, and I transferred to the Finance Department."
"Transfer?"
Xu Tingsheng was surprised, not only because of the fact that Lu Zhixin transferred to another department, but also because it was a cross-faculty transfer, and Lu Zhixin failed two courses in the first semester of her freshman year, so it was said that it was impossible to meet the requirements for the transfer.
As for why she transferred to the Department of Finance, it was not difficult for Xu Tingsheng to understand.
As if seeing through Xu Tingsheng's doubts, Lu Zhixin took the initiative to say: "My grades are not enough to transfer to another department. Fang Cheng tried to help me get it. Since it was announced more than a month ago, the school's open mailbox has been filled with report letters several times. Yes, there are also those who scolded on the forum, called the principal's hotline and the Department of Education... "
At the end, Lu Zhixin said in a joking tone, "Being your nominal girlfriend is actually quite hated."
In an instant, guilt rushed into Xu Tingsheng's heart.
After a long time, he said, "What can I do for you?"
Lu Zhixin said seriously: "Save."
Xu Tingsheng smiled wryly: "Okay, you've saved a lot."
After parking the car in the parking lot, Xu Tingsheng sent Lu Zhixin into the airport.
Before going through the security check, Lu Zhixin confessed to Xu Tingsheng:
"I have almost arranged the affairs of the company, so you can go to class with peace of mind. However, it is best to visit more often when you are free. Dexin will contact me directly, so you don't have to worry.
There is also Dongdong, I have prepared dog food and put it on the cabinet in the living room. You remember to feed it every day, and then try to take it out for a walk every morning and evening. Also, don't take your friends back if you have nothing to do, so as not to make the room dirty and smelly again.
Also, the new body wash and shampoo, your toothbrush, etc., I keep in the bathroom cabinet. Also, if you want to change the sheets, I have washed the previous set, and it is in the cabinet on the left side of your room, on the second floor. And... It doesn't seem to be there anymore, just call me if you have anything to do. "
At this moment, this kind of confession is like a wife who is about to leave home.
Xu Tingsheng suddenly felt that he was very unfair to Lu Zhixin, and all this was because of her strong woman shell. Because of this shell, Xu Tingsheng often ignores many things inadvertently, even including that she is actually a little girl.
Lu Zhixin noticed Xu Tingsheng's changing expression.
He smiled and said, "Are you guilty?"
Xu Tingsheng said, "Yes."
"Actually, if..." Lu Zhixin thought for a while, then said, "Forget it. Why don't you give me a hug. After being your girlfriend in the eyes of others for so long, you haven't hugged me yet."
"Okay." Xu Tingsheng said.
After agreeing to hug each other, both of them were a little embarrassed. They smiled as soon as they looked at each other, so they had no choice but to not look at each other. They carefully opened their hands, carefully embraced each other, and hugged each other carefully...
Gradually, Xu Tingsheng noticed that Lu Zhixin's hug was getting tighter and tighter, and finally exhausted all his strength, unwilling to let go for a long time.
"Can you tell me, why did you go to Hong Kong?"
From Lu Zhixin's hug at this time, Xu Tingsheng felt the loneliness and helplessness that he had never seen in her before. She who had always been independent seemed to need something to hold on to at this moment, to rely on and support her.
Xu Tingsheng felt that this must have something to do with her trip to Hong Kong.
"My father is in Hong Kong." Lu Zhixin said.
"I know." Xu Tingsheng didn't hide it.
Lu Zhixin was stunned for a while, but soon relieved.
She let go of her hand, put on a calm expression, forced a smile and said, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that Dad's not feeling well, and I was too nervous because I was worried."
This reason seemed insufficient, but since Lu Zhixin didn't want to talk about it, Xu Tingsheng couldn't pursue it further.
"Do you want me to accompany you?" Xu Tingsheng blurted out.
Lu Zhixin smiled, rare, and said coquettishly: "You didn't say it earlier. How can there be time now?... I'm going in, you should go back quickly, and drive carefully at night."
Xu Tingsheng had no choice but to say, "Okay, then call me when you need it."
Lu Zhixin nodded and waved.
…
It was already night when he returned to Yanzhou from Shenghai. Although it was not the closing time for the dormitory, Xu Tingsheng did not return to the dormitory. He stayed alone in the river bank residence, sitting on the sofa in the living room.
Besides him, there was only one dog in the room.
In fact, Xu Tingsheng hasn't been alone in such an environment for a long time. Thinking about it not long ago, there were three women living in this house, Xu Tingsheng could only sleep on the sofa wronged, but now...it's empty.
In order not to let himself think too much, Xu Tingsheng got up and looked for something to do. He watered the flowers and plants on the balcony, changed the sheets, swept the floor, took a shower, read the email sent by Cen Xiyu from the United States, replied, and then She didn't wait for a response, she should be in class...
Then, he had nothing else to do.
He grabbed a handful of dog food and threw them to Dongdong one by one.
"Dongdong, now I am the same as you and have been abandoned."
Xu Tingsheng didn't realize that he was actually talking to a dog.
He used to feel that he was the one who was depended on, was depended on by everyone, but now he suddenly realized that he was actually being depended on, enjoying the feeling of being cared about.
Man, who doesn't need to be cared about
Apple turned into Cen Xiyu and left. She should be in class now.
Lu Zhixin left. She should be taking care of Dad now.
Wu Yuewei came here once, and left without even stepping in the door. She said, Senior, please try not to appear again.
Xiang Ning has never been here before, and she doesn't know when she will come or if she will come. Xiang's father and mother's attitude towards Xu Tingsheng is like a mountain between them.
Her dog is here.
But Xu Tingsheng was talking to Dongdong, that bitch...it didn't even lift its head, and didn't even wag its tail.
In his previous life, Xu Tingsheng experienced such days for more than three years.
Looking at the time, Xiang Ning might not be asleep yet, but since the last call, she hasn't called again. Regarding everything about her now, Xu Tingsheng could only occasionally ask Li Linlin pretending to be casual.
I heard that she is very good, and she has improved in the school exams.
During the past three years in his previous life, Xu Tingsheng got used to drinking a little wine before going to bed.
Now he doesn't dare to drink. Drinking alone will only make him more lonely.
There was a knock on the door.
Xu Tingsheng opened the door.
Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng stood outside the door.
A snack with wine in one hand.
One is carrying wine.
"One person, one dog, damn it, how did you end up in such a miserable situation?" Fu Cheng said.
"You deserve it, you have today too?" Huang Yaming said. This was the first time he took the initiative to talk to Xu Tingsheng after the two had a quarrel in Shenghai.
"At last you're like both of us," they said.
Neither of them said anything good, but Xu Tingsheng's mood suddenly became much brighter.
Sometimes melancholy isn't so bad.
It's worse when the two people you can drink with aren't around.
Fortunately, they are here.
