Standing face to face like this, Lu Yan realized that Jiang Chengyi was a little taller than she thought, and she had to raise her head to meet him.
He was also looking at her, and he looked at her very carefully, first the eyebrows, then the eyes, and then the corners of her lips. After a while, he looked up, stared at her eyes, and said with a light smile: "What is your name? What's the name, I'll give you a new pair of shoes."
There seemed to be something unpleasant floating in the air.
She tried not to let herself think about this strange feeling, and glanced at him coldly and said, "No need, I'll just go back and brush it."
He looked very "sincere": "How about I brush it for you? It's been soiled twice, so embarrassing enough."
"Just don't get dirty a third time." She glanced at him.
His face was thicker than she thought, as if he didn't hear her dissatisfaction at all, he just smiled and said, "If it gets dirty a third time, I'll have to pay you a new pair."
As she said that, she glanced at her shoes and suggested "kindly", "It takes a lot of work to brush the shoes. Can I brush them for you?"
His voice was very low, with a sense of shaking the air. When he spoke, he kept looking at her intently, and the smile in his eyes made her ears warm for no reason.
Does he brush his shoes? She was very skeptical, she wanted to refuse, but she thought of teasing him again, nodded and said, "Okay then."
With this person's ball-handling skills, she didn't believe that he would "miss" twice. Since he was so boring, let him have a taste of brushing his shoes.
She took out the sandals in the shoe bag from her schoolbag, changed them in front of him, then put the sneakers in, handed them to him in peace, and said with a smile, "I'll trouble you then."
He wasn't surprised at all, and he really took it: "I'll give it to you when it's clean."
It was obviously an extremely narrow proposal, but he accepted it so logically, her smile couldn't help but condensed slightly, and suddenly the words Tang Jie always said when she was angry suddenly popped up in her mind: That person really needs to be beaten, I really want to beat him.
At this moment, although she maintained a smile, she had such thoughts in her heart.
"By the way, what's your name?" He changed the subject without changing his face.
"Lu Yan." She replied lightly.
"Lu Yan." He pretended to repeat these two words, deliberately speaking in a low and slow manner, as if chewing fruit candy.
Her heart beat faster and she frowned seriously: "Is there anything else?"
Hearing him smile: "My name is Jiang Chengyi."
"Oh." As if she had heard this name for the first time, Yun Danfeng hummed softly.
For two days on weekends, Lu Yan reviewed her homework at home.
There was a cheerleading rehearsal on Monday. During the lunch break, she remembered that Jiang Chengyi said that she would put her shoes under the auditorium of the gymnasium, so she came out of the classroom after eating.
The gym is usually empty at noon, so she plans to change her shoes there first, and then go out to eat, so as not to run out of shoes during rehearsal in the afternoon.
Who knew that when they got there, Jiang Chengyi and the other team members were practicing on the court. It should be approaching the preliminary round, and they were caught by the coach for extra training.
When she came in, Jiang Chengyi just dunked and didn't look at the door at all.
Lu Yan found the seat in the auditorium, touched it down, and sure enough there was her shoe bag.
When she opened it, it was much cleaner than she had imagined. Not only the uppers, but also the laces and insoles were all new.
Her cheeks were hot, and she inexplicably gave birth to a girl's peculiar restraint.
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but at this moment, Jiang Chengyi also looked over here, and the moment his eyes met, he seemed to smile.
She couldn't sit still, and suddenly couldn't change her shoes in front of him like that night, so she slipped out of the auditorium with her shoe bag in hand. Just as she was about to leave, she heard someone calling her from behind.
It is Jiang Chengyi.
"How is it, are you satisfied?" He sweated, his neat short hair stuck to his forehead, pointed to the shoes in her hand, and asked her, without smiling, but she always felt that there was a narrowness in his eyes.
"It's alright." Her tone was critical, but she smiled generously, "Thank you."
"Oh." He raised his eyebrows, and then continued, "Have you eaten? It's been a delay for you to put on your shoes these two days. Why don't I invite you to dinner."
"No, I have an appointment with my classmate." She squeezed out a smile, refusing to interact with him again. As for the reason, she couldn't explain it herself. In short, she felt it was necessary to keep a distance from him, so she turned around and left as soon as she finished speaking.
However, when she ran far away, she could still feel that someone was watching her from behind.
