They didn't eat together that night. When Li Erqin and Peng Zige returned to the broadcasting room, they found that there was only Rong Si left in the broadcasting room.
"Where's Su Zi?" Peng Zige asked nervously.
"Say you have something to do tonight."
Peng Zige was silent.
"You rejected her?" Peng Zige continued to ask.
"Um."
Peng Zige scratched his hair irritably, and secretly looked at Li Erqin, who was also silent. Secretly rejoicing at the same time with a deep sense of loss.
Eh, I seem to like you.
It has become a secret that is not dared to speak.
Not long after the evening self-study started, Li Erqin received a text message from Su Zi: Erqin, can you come to the playground with me
Li Erqin put away his mobile phone, got up and walked out of the broadcasting room.
Rong Si still wrote the exercises with his head down.
Peng Zige looked suspiciously at the door and then at Rong Si, opened his mouth to ask, but suddenly realized, scratching the back of his head and silently continuing to nibble on English words.
Lively Peng Monkey.
Li Erqin was worried that Su Zi was crying, so he went to buy two cups of hot milk tea. As a result, when she met Su Zi, she was rubbing her hands and jumping around the rostrum. Seeing Li Erqin, she immediately greeted her gratefully: "Er Qin! Hot milk tea? It's too timely! It's so cold!"
Li Erqin took a sip of milk tea: "Well, the cold air is coming."
Su Zi sucked her nose: "It's so cold, the snot will freeze. Do you have a tissue?"
"You didn't remind me." Li Erqin was a little stunned: "I didn't expect you to have a runny nose. However," she explained for herself: "I was afraid that you would cry, so I bought milk tea."
Crying nose and milk tea
"Shouldn't it be better to buy a tissue when crying?" Su Zi looked at her strangely: "Milk tea can't wipe your tears."
Li Erqin suddenly realized.
"Let's go. Let's go get some tissues first, or I'll wipe my nose with my sleeve."
Li Erqin gave her a disapproving look.
Su Zi couldn't help laughing.
The two walked silently for a while, and Su Zi asked, "Er Qin, don't you ask me?"
"what?"
"What did Rong Si tell me?"
"What do you want to say?" Li Erqin asked rhetorically.
"It's okay." Su Zi took a sip of milk tea: "I don't have much to say."
Li Erqin said nothing.
Su Zi held the milk tea silently, thinking of Rong Si's clear eyes in the afternoon, with a light but not alienating tone: "I have always regarded you as a very good friend and classmate, and I hope we can be friends forever. I hope that the four of us can progress together, move forward together, and not be alienated by anything. If you have any difficulties or doubts, I will help you without hesitation."
He paused, carefully observed every expression on Su Zi's face, and continued: "I attach great importance to our friendship."
Thinking of this, Su Zi sniffed: "Hey, Li Erqin, how did you feel when you didn't play with us at that time?"
Li Erqin frowned: "I don't recommend you to do that, it's not uncomfortable at all."
Su Zi smiled lightly.
"I also hope you don't leave." Li Erqin took the initiative to pull Su Zi's hand: "You think about it."
Su Zi broke free from Li Erqin's hand.
Li Erqin was startled.
She quickly and affectionately took Li Erqin's arm and leaned over coquettishly: "I never thought of ignoring you at all! It's just that I'm afraid I'll be embarrassed with Rong Si."
Li Erqin replied immediately: "It's fine to ignore him, anyway, his sense of existence is low."
Rong Si? Low presence
Su Zi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Li Erqin was probably the first person who would say that the boy Rong Si had a low sense of existence.
However, this sentence Li Erqin is actually not wrong. If Rong Si's own aura is removed, he is indeed a person with a very low sense of existence. Li Erqin felt that he could not hear a few words from him all day. As long as it is something that can be solved with his eyes, Rong Si can do anything.
That night, she had a private conversation with Su Zi between good sisters, and went straight back to the bedroom after the conversation. So Rong Si and Peng Zige saw Su Zi again at breakfast time the next morning.
Su Zi was a little embarrassed and followed behind Li Erqin. Seeing Peng Zige and Rong Si approaching from a distance, she unnaturally pulled the hem of Li Erqin's clothes: "He's here."
Li Erqin: "I know."
Su Zi: "..."
Just when Su Zi didn't even think about where to put his eyes, Rong Si had already stood in front of the two with a natural expression: "Let's go."
"Big canteen and small canteen?" Li Erqin asked.
"Small cafeteria." Peng Zige was no different: "The soy milk in the cafeteria is a bit delicious."
Completely no different from usual. Su Zi was awkward for a while and forgot about it. By the time she returned to the classroom after breakfast, she had already started embarrassing Peng Zige.
However, if there is any difference.
This morning, Peng Zige had been good-natured and let Su Zi embarrass him, but he happily didn't return his mouth.
Not long after the early self-study started, the class teacher came in and announced a piece of good news: Among the ten people in this city who are eligible to participate in the national competition, our class has three places.
During the afternoon self-study time, the campus broadcast also broadcast the news. At that time, Li Erqin was sitting in the seat navigating the introductory physics exercises. When Chad heard her name, she raised her head blankly. Her first reaction was to look back at Rong Si, who also happened to raise her head.
Rong Si's hand holding the pen lightly supported his cheek and smiled at her.
Her heartbeat suddenly stopped for a beat, she was silent for a while thoughtfully, and said to Rong Si, "Keep going."
"You too."
Peng Zige's unbearable voice broke the strange atmosphere between the two: "Are you two numb?"
Li Erqin's eyes moved to Peng Zige's face.
"I heard that you are going for three days this time." Peng Zige was very upset: "Is it possible that I want to be alone for a long time."
Su Zi turned around and said, "Is it possible that we should ask the cafeteria aunt to take care of you more?"
Peng Zige glared at her: "Go back and read your book!"
The three of Rong Si took the school bus to the city that afternoon to join the other players. Said to be three days, but in fact it was two days and two nights, and he would come back in the afternoon of the third day.
Peng Zige was lying on the balcony at the entrance of the classroom, watching the school bus go away, plunged into his desk unhappily, and took out the English exercises that Rong Si left behind to do.
If you can't get on that school bus this year, you have to catch up with next year's.
And Li Erqin dazedly followed the army into the car, next to Su Zi who was also dazed. She couldn't help looking back at Rong Si, and found that he was leaning on the back of the chair with his ears closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
Sleep with headphones on, don't you make trouble? Li Erqin thought for a while, returned to his seat, opened the beef jerky he just bought, and asked Su Zi, "Do you want to eat?"
Su Zi shook her head: "How long will we be in the car?"
"I don't know." She took out a piece and put it in her mouth: "I heard from the teacher just now that it seems to be midnight."
"It's been a long time..."
Li Erqin put the beef jerky together again: "Do you want to eat?"
"Don't eat."
Li Erqin took back the beef jerky indifferently, opened another package of potato chips, and asked, "Do you want to eat?"
"Er Qin... When did you buy it?"
"Before getting in the car."
Su Zi recalled, but did not recall when Li Erqin left the army: "So... when is it?"
"Before getting in the car... when you were lining up to get up."
Su Zi: "You move quite fast."
"Well. I've long been optimistic about which ones to buy." While speaking, he took out another bag of plums: "Do you want to eat?"
"… no thank you."
To be honest, Li Erqin was a little afraid of taking a car because she would get motion sickness. The purpose of buying so many snacks is to divert my attention, but it didn't take long for the nausea caused by motion sickness to come up. She carefully put away the unpackaged snacks, then huddled up and quickly fell asleep.
When I woke up again, it was pitch black outside. The long-distance bus galloped on the highway, and the lights on the opposite side flashed from time to time. There was silence in the carriage, most of the students fell asleep, and a few students were playing with their mobile phones quietly, and the screen was shining white on their faces.
Li Erqin turned his head, Su Zi also fell asleep. The long eyelashes are gently closed on the lower eyelid, and the beautiful lips are slightly open, a little cute.
She felt that her nausea didn't seem so serious, but she was a little hungry, so she took out the unfinished snacks and continued to eat.
The sound of opening the wrapping paper was obvious in the quiet carriage, babbling.
Then someone tapped on the shoulder.
She turned back and saw milk and bread on the back of the chair. She climbed onto the chair and looked back at Rong Si.
Rong Si held up the bread and milk and watched her quietly in the dark carriage.
"Thank you." She took it. "Have you eaten?"
"We just got out of the car and had dinner."
Li Erqin was startled: "I feel like I haven't eaten."
"Well." Rong Si took off the earphone in his left ear: "Su Zi called you for a long time and didn't wake you up."
Li Erqin blushed a little, but Rong Si couldn't see the darkness in the compartment.
"I fell asleep just now."
"I know."
"You..." She shook the bread and milk in her hand: "Did you buy it for me?"
Rong Si nodded: "It will take about two hours to arrive, you will definitely be hungry."
"Thank you." She smiled.
Rong Si took out another package from his coat pocket: "Motion sickness medicine, take it after you've eaten."
"Thank you." She said the same thing.
He gestured: "Hurry up and eat."
Before the match the next day, Su Zi was obviously a little nervous. Li Erqin observed her for a long time, took out the chocolate from the backpack and handed it to her: "Do you want to eat?"
Su Zi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You have been feeding me since yesterday."
"Eat something sweet, your brain will be more active, and you will definitely be able to perform well in a while."
Su Zijiang took the chocolate suspiciously and took a bite: "Oh! It's delicious!"
Li Erqin smiled and turned to Rong Si: "Or?"
"thanks."
Rong Si gently broke off a piece of chocolate from the plate and put it in his mouth. Then gave her a rare bright smile.
For some reason, Li Erqin's face burned again. She touched her face strangely and said to herself, "How strange..."
Then even my heart beat.
It's really weird...
