Apart from work and outdoor sports, Ye Shuwei's most frequent place is the bookstore, meeting Bei Er Duo is purely a coincidence.
When he took the elevator up to the second floor, he immediately saw Bei Er who was standing in front of the bookshelf, trying to stand on tiptoe. From his perspective, she looked very "miniature".
It seemed that he could easily cover her with one hand.
Standing behind her, he kept guessing when she would turn back to find someone to rescue her, but for five minutes, she acted very stubbornly, which made him even more puzzled. There should be many difficulties encountered.
After helping her take down the book, what he thought was, if she didn't have a tall person around her to help, would she still be able to live a normal life
Obviously, when he was thinking at the moment, he completely ignored the fact that she had lived a good life without him in the past twenty-four years.
…
Bei Er Duo bought a book, but Ye Shuwei didn't buy anything after reading it around, and paid the bill with her, and went out together.
Walking to the elevator, Bei Er said, "Go in front of me."
After Ye Shuwei went down first, Bei Er Duo followed behind him, looking around by the way.
Fortunately, there were very few people in the bookstore during this time period, and no one noticed them.
When they arrived at the door, Bei Er Duo remained vigilant, Ye Shu Wei couldn't see it, "You're thinking too much, we're not superstars, and we haven't reached the point where everyone cares about us."
"It's always better to be careful." Bei Er Duo naturally thought of Tang Li's words, she and Ye Shu Wei stood together, it was difficult not to get people's attention.
"Have you eaten yet?" he asked.
"not yet."
"Me neither, let's go together."
Bei Er Duo thought about it, now that they are in the limelight, if they openly go to eat together, they may make a big fuss if they are recognized.
Seeing her hesitation, Ye Shuwei decided: "Let's go, just have a meal, don't think too much."
At Bei Er Duo's request, Ye Shu Wei drove to a hidden alley, and ate the donburi with her there.
Not many people know about this small shop, but the food is delicious.
The store is small and the ceiling is low, Ye Shu Wei immediately looked cramped as soon as he walked in, the proprietress sitting behind the counter deliberately raised her head to glance at him: "Sit inside, it's more spacious."
After choosing the table to sit down, the two of them ordered their meals. While waiting, Bei Er Duo tidied up his bag, took out his sunglasses, masks and hats and put them on the wooden table one by one, and said to himself: "Everything is white." No, nothing works."
"You're not going on a picnic, so there's no need to get ready to go." Ye Shu Wei swept the pile of trash in front of him.
Bei Er Duo lowered his voice while tidying up: "You think quite openly."
Then, he stopped his hands and looked at him: "Let's find a place after dinner, I have something to tell you."
"You can say whatever you want now."
Bei Er Er glanced at the proprietress behind the counter. She had a chubby face, wearing a pair of narrow glasses, and she was lowering her head to settle accounts without squinting.
"There are people here." She was suspicious, "I want to talk in a place where there is no third person."
"There's no place for a third person?" Ye Shu Wei mused, "Then eat first, and we'll talk after we're done eating."
After a while, the proprietress' son brought two bowls of rice topped with rice to the table. Bei Er Duo said thank you in a low-key manner, took the chopsticks and bowed his head to eat. Take a plate of vinegar."
The proprietress cast her gaze over again, sized them up, and said in a calm voice, "Ah Liang, take the vinegar."
The proprietress' son A Liang heard the order, lazily got up from the bench in front of the TV, went inside to get vinegar, and came out to give it to Ye Shuwei.
Bei Er Duo gave Ye Shu Wei a troubled look.
"Thank you." Ye Shu Wei said.
Ah Liang walked away two steps, looked back at the long legs under the table, and asked Ye Shu Wei with a smile: "Brother, how tall are you?"
Ye Shuwei poured vinegar on the rice and answered him, "One meter and ninety."
"Are you an athlete or a model?"
"neither."
"A normal person? Then what did you eat to grow so tall?"
"Spinach, kelp, fish and shrimp and milk."
"It's all things I don't like to eat." Ah Liang sighed.
Ye Shuwei's gaze fell on him, and he continued, "I can tell."
Ah Liang: "..."
Bei Er: "..."
The proprietress also joined the conversation and said to her son, "Did you hear that, what did people eat to grow so tall? You don't even drink milk, you deserve the low altitude."
A Liang scratched his head, quickly ran away, sat back on the bench, but did not forget to look back at Ye Shu Wei frequently, muttering something in his mouth.
Bei Er Duo looked at the person opposite, and couldn't help thinking that he was too easy to become the focus, and when he was with him, no matter whether it was real or not, he needed to be mentally prepared.
After dinner, Ah Liang came to collect the money, which was thirty yuan in total.
After Ye Shuwei paid the bill, he and Bei Er Duo got up and went out at the same time, Ah Liang couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow..."
Bei Er Er pretended not to hear, and the moment he stepped out of the door, he was still not lucky enough to ignore A Liang's soft comment with malicious intentions: "What's the use of being tall, the girlfriend he looks for is shorter than mine, hahaha, God is too fair gone."
Bei Er's knee hurts a bit, he sticks to the principle of not fighting with children, and doesn't turn around to argue.
"You said you wanted to find a place where there was no third person to talk to me." Ye Shu Wei tilted his head, "I thought of one, why don't I take you there now."
Bei Er Duo came back to his senses and nodded quickly: "Let's go."
Ten minutes later, the car stopped at the door of a nearby chain hotel.
Bei Er was dumbfounded: "Ye Shuwei, you don't mean to rent a room, do you?"
"Otherwise?" Ye Shu Wei inspected the surrounding radiant and bustling street scene with his eyes, "There is no place without a third person here."
"No, it's too risky, if we are seen by acquaintances, we will all be finished." Bei Er Duo objected.
The point is, she has never been here with the opposite sex before, and when she thinks of going up with Ye Shuwei, she feels uncomfortable.
"I'll go up first, and you will come up later, so there will be no problem." It seemed that he was well prepared.
"It still doesn't work." Bei Er Duo said the truth, "I've never had a room with a man, this scene is too... exciting, I can't bear it."
"Exciting?" Ye Shuwei glanced at the complex emotions on her face inexplicably, "I won't do something that you can't bear tonight, even if you want to, you should first ask me if I am willing."
Bei Er looked into his eyes, his dark eyes were a little cool under the night, and realized that he just chose a plan for her reference and had no other thoughts, so he tried to calm his emotions and responded: "Let's change to another place." Well, I suddenly thought of a place suitable for communication without being disturbed by anyone."
Ye Shuwei heard the words and restarted the car safely.
…
Fifteen minutes later, the car stopped at the back entrance of No. 13 Middle School, and it took Bei Er Duo and Ye Shuwei more than 20 minutes to sneak in successfully.
In the dark of night, they crossed the green avenue of the campus and walked quickly towards a certain teaching building.
"I have studied here for three years, and I am very familiar with the environment." Bei Er said, "It is summer vacation during this period, but the new senior year needs to make up classes. It is too hot in the daytime, so the classes are arranged in the evening. The school gate is less than 9 It doesn't close at 30:00, just as the guards here have always been lax, and the success rate of sneaking in at night is very high."
Walking into a teaching building with a row of lights on, Bei Er Duo went up first, and Ye Shu Wei followed behind her.
The teaching building has five floors, and Bei Er Duo climbed to the top floor in one breath.
The time and place were favorable, and the iron door on the top floor was unlocked, so they easily came to the rooftop.
Bei Er Duo looked up at the starry sky and breathed, then turned around and said in a low tone on purpose: "Ye Shu Wei, do you know that someone jumped off the building before here."
"Oh, is that so?" Ye Shu Wei's tone was very light.
"But I don't know why, she fell down, and her head was still on the roof..." Bei Er Duo stared at Ye Shu Wei, "So, do you feel a weird, creepy airflow... Please, what's your expression like?" Not cooperative at all, so boring."
Ye Shuwei walked over, passed Bei Er Duo, went to the edge of the top floor, and looked down: "It's such a short place, it's so boring to jump off the building."
"Be careful!" Bei Er Duo reminded, "I was joking just now, no one has ever jumped the stairs here, but it rained yesterday and the ground is very slippery, so don't be the first by accident."
Ye Shuwei stopped, turned around and asked her: "So, what do you want to tell me?"
Bei Er Duo sat down on the spot and looked up at his handsome face: "Sit down too, I'm not used to being always looked down upon by you."
Ye Shuwei sat down. Even sitting, he was taller than her by a large margin.
The galaxy above the head was brilliant, and there was a hot and humid wind blowing in front of them. The two sat close to each other, her elbow resting lightly on his arm.
"Did President Yu tell you his plans and arrangements?"
"Oh, he told me."
Bei Er Duo's heart beat faster: "Did you express your opinion immediately, say no?"
It was only a few seconds, but in Bei Er's ears, it was like a cycle of a century, she heard Ye Shu Wei say: "No."
"Why?" Bei Er Duo said, "It's not like you."
"What about me?" He turned his head and looked down at her, "Bei Er, do you understand?"
"You will never be controlled, you don't like people interfering in your life, you will not do things against your will." She said, "So, I guess you are not willing to let more and more People mistook me for your girlfriend."
"I really don't want to." I don't want to "mistake" it, and the nature of the unwillingness is a pure transaction.
When Bei Er heard his answer, his eyes and mood dimmed to the end.
If that's the case, he doesn't want her to have too many chances to appear in his life.
This short-lived emotion was just her one-sided feeling.
So, she smiled understandingly: "Well, I don't want to put on a show like this all the time. It was just a small-scale Internet hype, but now even passers-by know about it, and the pressure is great."
"You don't want to make money anymore? You don't want to be friends anymore?" Ye Shu Wei's voice became more normal when she heard her retreat intention.
"Make money, of course I want to, but if the money is not easy to earn, I will give up. My friend, of course I have to do something, but if it conflicts with my principles, I will hesitate." Bei Er Duo said so, thinking Unfortunately, the point is that you don't want to.
"Have you rejected your friend?"
Bei Er Duo shook his head: "Not yet, she gave me three days."
It's just that now that she has made up her mind, since Ye Shu Wei said she doesn't want it so directly, what illusions does she still have? Being immersed in the imaginary will only become more and more pathetic. With him, she will eventually fall into the quagmire alone, unable to control herself, which is not what she wants.
If he had a little feeling for her, she would not choose to give up immediately, but if he didn't even have that "little bit", she would not have the courage to continue.
It was as if a hand held down the second hand that let the time pass, and everything stood still abruptly.
You can't even hear the sound of the wind, as if you are on an uninhabited island, and only heaven and earth can hear what is in your heart.
Until an unreal voice reappeared in my ears.
"Actually, this money is not as difficult to earn as you imagined, and you can continue to help your friends."
Bei Er Duo's eyes suddenly went dark, then lighted up again, she was completely unprepared, and she was forced to fall backwards, but fortunately she supported herself on the ground with her elbows in time.
Ye Shuwei... He actually stretched out his arm and pressed it on her other side, leaning forward skillfully, covering all the starlight in front of her eyes.
Of course it was only for a while, Bei Er Duo found the light source in front of him - his black eyes.
"What do you mean?" Her current posture is very awkward, her head is tilted back, her chin is slightly raised, revealing the curves of her neck and chest, her eyelashes are lowered, and she can clearly see the lines of his chin and Adam's apple, all of which are elegant and sharp.
"Oh." Ye Shuwei was above her, his voice was as low as the strings of some kind of musical instrument, revealing his personal emotions faintly, "I mean, it's just a proper acting, it's not that difficult, huh?"
"But aren't you unwilling?"
"Listen clearly, what I don't want to say." As she breathed, all the curves floated into his eyes, and he browsed quietly while saying, "I will not be controlled by others, and I will not allow irrelevant people to disturb you." My life, I don't do things I don't like, and I don't want to end up with just more and more people mistaking us for a couple."
He emphasized the tone of "mistaking" three.
After the words fell, he restrained his eyes and looked at her face again: "Do you understand this?"
Bei Er Duo was stunned: "So... are you willing or not?"
The iron door was slammed open, and a burst of laughter rushed in.
"It's disgusting, why did you bring someone here, it's dark, what are you trying to do badly?" the female student objected shyly.
"What I want to do has already started..." the male student said while starting to do it.
"Wait...there's someone there."
"Liar."
"There are real people." The female student struggled to open the opponent's arms, "Look, they are still lying down..."
"Isn't it? Someone of the same kind took the place first?" The male student walked over step by step, squinting his eyes.
The female student behind him also approached cautiously.
Until one step away from Ye Shu Wei and Bei Er Duo.
Ye Shuwei said suddenly: "I think it's very rude for you to come in without knocking."
Others include Bei Er Duo: "…"
"Also, you should know how to come first, first come first."
"..."
