School, laboratory.
Kong Wenhan walked to Xu Zhe and handed over a document:
"Brother, you can speak German, help me see how to translate here?"
Xu Zhe was debugging the instrument, and didn't lift his head when he heard the words:
"German? Why don't you find Zhijin?"
He spent a year in Pheno Lab in Baicheng, and no one in the lab knew better about this aspect than him.
The corner of Kong Wenhan's mouth twitched, and he lowered his voice:
"How dare I! Brother Xu Zhe, don't you feel it? Brother Shen is in a particularly bad mood these days!"
Shen Zhijin has a proud and indifferent temper, but he has always been polite and courteous to others.
But recently, I don't know what's wrong, he has a circle of low pressure around his body, and even the whole laboratory is trembling, for fear of making mistakes.
Kong Wenhan didn't dare to make trouble at this time.
Hearing this, Xu Zhe finally stopped what he was doing, turned his head and looked at him:
"Really? You feel it too?"
He has known Shen Zhijin for so long, and he has never seen him in this state.
A boy next to him couldn't help but leaned over with his head:
"Hey, tell me, is it because Gu Xuemei hasn't been here much recently?"
Everyone in Xijing knows that Gu Tingyin is chasing Shen Zhijin.
On the side of the museum, they often have the opportunity to see her.
Sometimes it's for class, sometimes it's for dinner.
More often, she came over to sketch with a drawing board on her back.
Of course, everyone knows that her ulterior motives are not in drinking.
Xu Zhe touched his chin.
"When you say that, it seems to be true! Could it be that they have a lot of classes recently and are too busy, so they didn't come?"
"Isn't that possible? She used to take so many classes, didn't she still come here often? And I heard from my classmates at the Academy of Fine Arts that there will be several master art exhibitions in Beijing this month, and the students have ample time!"
"Art exhibition? Then according to the character of taking care of the school girl, I should invite Zhijin to watch it together..."
"That's right. If you really like someone, you will always have time. If you want me to tell you, I guess - Gu Xuemei gave up?"
"Give up? What do you mean, she won't pursue Zhijin anymore? No way... Gu Xuemei has nothing to say to him..."
"I know, but what's the use of knowing? After all, Gu Xuemei has been chasing after her for a long time, but there seems to be no response from the senior brother. Which girl can bear it? I think it is very rare for Gu Xuemei to persist until now. gone."
Kong Wenhan was by the side, no matter how he heard it, it didn't sound right.
He remembered what happened at the bookstore that day.
If senior brother doesn't like Gu Xuemei, how could he...
But recently, she really didn't come here very often, and she didn't know what happened between the two of them.
Xu Zhe listened, and finally wavered.
"... What you said is not unreasonable. Gu Xuemei is beautiful, has a good personality, and is also very talented in painting. She is a goddess! There are so many people who like her, and there is really no need for her to be in the Zhijin tree. Hanging from an iron tree. If she is willing to nod her head and find someone to have a sweet love affair, it's the simplest thing, why bother—cough!"
He raised his eyes inadvertently, coughed violently, his face flushed red:
"Cough-cough-know, Zhijin-why did you come-cough-come?"
Shen Zhijin stood at the door with a calm expression. He didn't know when he arrived, let alone how much he had heard.
Kong Wenhan and the others hurriedly stood up to say hello.
"Brother."
Is there anything more embarrassing than talking behind the back and being hit by the boss!
Shen Zhijin had no expression on his face, nodded as usual, and walked towards the laboratory.
Everyone fell silent.
It was clear that Shen Zhijin didn't say anything, not even a little extra reaction, but everyone still couldn't help but get nervous.
An invisible cold breath silently permeated the entire laboratory.
Needle drop can be heard.
Shen Zhijin turned on the computer and called up the observation data.
However, for some reason, the numbers that used to be extremely clear and clear to him now seemed disorganized.
sixth day.
Since they separated at the bookstore that day, she has never been to Xijing University.
Is it because he didn't respond to her words and call her Yin Yin that day, and she got angry
But-
Shen Zhijin pursed her lips slightly.
It's not that he didn't want to, but he felt that it didn't seem like a very good time.
And she didn't know how long it took him to finally regain control of his heartbeat when she smiled and called him jokingly.
This alone already occupied all his mind at the moment, so how could he still think about other things.
But she never came again after that.
At this time, he finally realized that if she didn't take the initiative to come to him, then even seeing her would be a luxury for him.
He was used to her showing up everywhere he could see from time to time, but he never imagined a moment like this.
——She disappeared from his sight, even though he waited and waited, he still couldn't see her again.
The words he heard just now kept echoing in his ears, and his hands tightened slightly.
He closed his eyes, gathered his energy and looked at the screen again.
Ten minutes later, the cursor was still blinking in place without moving half an inch.
There was no progress, and those familiar numbers only seemed to irritate him at this moment.
Xu Zhe quietly came over and lowered his voice.
"Cough, Zhijin, what I just said is nonsense, don't take it to heart!"
Shen Zhijin's side face was cold, as if he didn't hear.
Xu Zhe scratched his head.
"This... Actually, if you want me to say it, it's pretty good. In the future, Gu Xuemei won't have to run back and forth so hard, and you can have more time—"
Shen Zhijin stood up suddenly.
Xu Zhe was taken aback:
"Hey, Zhijin, where are you going? The things haven't been finished yet!"
While walking outside, Shen Zhijin said:
"Suddenly remembered something, please help me and Professor Su take a leave."
Xu Zhe looked at the computer in a daze, and murmured in disbelief:
"Why are you in such a hurry that you can't even turn off the computer?"
With Shen Zhijin's behavior style, this is really the first time he has encountered such a situation.
He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Shen Zhijin's figure had disappeared outside the door.
Kong Wenhan glanced this way and clicked his tongue lightly.
It is not without reason that the brothers bought those books.
Isn't that - the biggest reason
…
Shen Zhijin went directly to the downstairs of the female dormitory of Xijing Academy of Fine Arts.
He knew that she only had a class at ten o'clock in the morning today, and she should be back after lunch after class.
It was already very cold in Beijing at the end of November, and the weather was gloomy and grayish blue.
Even in the morning, there is no warmth.
Shen Zhijin waited for a long time, and finally heard lively footsteps and conversations not far away.
His heart moved slightly, and he looked up.
At noon, the girls came back from get out of class one after another.
They also finally saw Shen Zhijin at this time, and some whispered in surprise.
"That's... Shen Zhijin?"
He seldom comes to the Academy of Fine Arts, but he is very famous in Xijing Datai, and there are very few people who don't know this face.
Shen Zhijin finally saw a more familiar face - Gu Tingyin's roommate.
When he came to see her off before, he met her once by accident.
Gu Tingyin has a good relationship with her, but today, beside her is another girl.
It's not Gu Tingyin.
Shen Zhijin took the initiative to step forward.
Many girls around looked over, with curiosity and admiration mostly in their eyes.
"Hello."
Shen Zhijin greeted her,
"I'm looking for Gu Tingyin."
The girl froze for a moment, seemingly quite surprised.
"Senior Shen, don't you know, she made an appointment with someone to see Zong Pei's art exhibition today! I thought that person was you—"
She realized something and stopped suddenly.
Shen Zhijin's hands in his coat pockets tightened slightly.
The tickets for the two art exhibitions were gradually wrinkled by him.
