Lu Yao didn't remember what she said before leaving. She hurriedly left the cafe, as if she had lost her soul. Standing on the street, I hailed a taxi and got in. The driver asked her where she was going. She was about to say Jingchen Yipin, but her voice got stuck in her throat. Nothing comes out. I held it in for a few seconds. Lu Yao then said out loud: "Yecheng University."
Night City University is about a two-hour drive from the city center. The driver turned to look at Lu Yao, whose eyes were straight, and said, "It's so far. We don't have to use the clock to go. How about four hundred?"
Lu Yao's mind was blank. But I was very confused. She was so scared and just wanted to find a familiar and safe place to hide. You can't go back to the Jian family, and you can't go back to Ji Guanxin's place either. Think about it. She could only go back to school to find Xu Yingjia.
Nod. Lu Yao didn't even say anything.
The driver pressed the empty license plate and drove Lu Yao towards Yecheng University. The car drove for more than half an hour. Lu Yao's heart slowly returned to its original position. She was too panicked before. So she couldn't think about it carefully. Now that the enthusiasm had passed, she began to seriously think about whether the words she liked came from Jian Chengli, or whether Jian Beibei was thinking of some new tricks to get her.
On the way, Ji Guanxin called. Lu Yao looked at the lit screen of her mobile phone, not to mention feeling entangled in her heart. She didn't like lying, and the biggest lie she had ever told in her life was that she regarded Jian Chengli as her brother.
Now she finally calmed down, but at this moment, Jian Beibei said such words to her again.
Lu Yao didn't dare to answer the phone. Although she felt guilty, she also knew that after the call was answered, the lie would inevitably begin.
After hesitating for a long time, Lu Yao planned to wait until Ji Guanxin hung up the phone, but the phone kept ringing. She secretly adjusted her breathing and then connected.
"Hello." Her voice was soft, but her thoughts were very heavy.
Ji Guanxin said: "Are you playing outside? Why did it take so long to pick up?"
Lu Yao was sitting in the back seat of the taxi. She lowered her eyes slightly, held the bag chain in her right hand, raised her heart, and replied aloud: "I'm on my way back to school."
Ji Guanxin said, obviously surprised, he asked aloud: "Why are you going back to school?"
Lu Yao said: "There are some things to deal with in the school. I have to go back."
Ji Guanxin said, "When will you come back? I'll pick you up."
Lu Yao said: "No, I have to stay at school for a few days."
Ji Guanxin suddenly said softly: "Do you blame me for leaving you alone at home?"
Lu Yao didn't expect Ji Guanxin to say that, and her heart trembled, followed by sourness.
She was lying and he was worried about her. If possible, she really didn't want to lie to him, but Xu Yingjia had long reminded that in many cases, not telling the truth can make the other person happier.
Lu Yao was very confused at the moment. She didn't want to be impulsive and cause trouble, so she had no choice but to lie.
"No, I just happened to have something going on at school. You are busy with your work. I know you haven't been free recently."
Ji Guanxin said: "Are you really not angry?"
If what she said was true, she would definitely give him a helpless smile at this time, but she was lying, so she couldn't even raise the corners of her lips.
"No." With hot eyes, Lu Yao turned her head and looked out the window, trying hard to control the emotions that were about to explode.
Ji Guanxin told her in a soft voice: "I really don't have much time in the past few days. If you have something to do at school, you can go back and stay for two days. I will pick you up when I'm done."
"Well, the little pretty boy is still at home. You don't have time, so don't forget to send him to foster care."
"I know, I won't starve him." Ji Guanxin was also trying to discern Lu Yao's emotions. Seeing that she was still worried about the pretty boy, it meant she wasn't angry with him. It was probably because something happened at school.
The two chatted for a while, and Ji Guanxin said softly: "Yao Yao."
"Um?"
"Don't stay at school for too long. Call me when you're done and try to come back as early as possible. I still miss you."
He whispered to her in a "qing ren" tone, and Lu Yao's blood boiled with anger again.
She whispered back: "Okay, you go about your business, I'm hanging up."
Ji Guanxin said: "Kiss me."
She was still in the car, frowned, and whispered, "I'm done."
That's what she said, but she didn't hang up right away, so she clearly heard a kissing sound coming from the phone, and Ji Guanxin's chuckle: "Then I'll kiss you, stay in school, and wait for me." pick you up."
Lu Yao's face turned red, she whispered "Yeah", told him not to worry, and then hung up the phone.
This phone call with Ji Guanxin made Lu Yao feel anxious and guilty, but it unexpectedly made her sure of one thing. That means she is really moved by Ji Guanxin and has feelings for her.
At first she didn't like his sweet-talking, playful and smiling style. She always felt that he was too frivolous. If he said too many sweet-talking words, they wouldn't have that much gold content.
But it turns out that she fell into it unknowingly and was addicted to it.
She liked Ji Guanxin, so she was afraid to tell him some secrets, fearing that he would dislike her.
Jian Beibei said that Jian Chengli liked her and had liked her for many years. Lu Yao was not sure whether this was true or not, but seeing what Jian Beibei said about having noses and eyes, her heart was inevitably churning. She wasn't eating from the bowl and looking at the person in the pot, she was just afraid... fate would be too tricky. If she is not the only one who knows this secret, then the more people who know it, the greater the risk of capsizing. She is afraid that if one thing goes wrong, everything will be lost.
When Lu Yao arrived at the gate of Night City University, it was already past five o'clock in the afternoon. Counting the time, she went to sit on a bench outside teaching building A and sent a text message to Xu Yingjia, saying that she was back.
Xu Yingjia immediately called and Lu Yao answered.
"Hey, where are you? Why are you back suddenly?" Xu Yingjia's voice was deliberately lowered. Lu Yao didn't need to think about it, but she also knew that she was lying under the table to make the call.
"I have something to discuss with you." More than two hours had passed, and Lu Yao's mood had calmed down enough to speak calmly.
Xu Yingjia asked: "What's going on?"
Lu Yao said: "I can't tell clearly now. I'm on the bench outside Building A. You can come out after class later and talk later."
Xu Yingjia was impatient. After hanging up the phone with Lu Yao, she stood up and raised her hand and said she had a stomachache. The teachers at the university didn't pay much attention to the matter and it was almost time to get out of school, so they just let her go first.
Xu Yingjia ran out of Building A and saw Lu Yao sitting on the bench under the tree opposite. As she ran towards this end, she asked, "What happened?"
Lu Yao looked up at Xu Yingjia and said after two seconds: "Can't you finish the class?"
Xu Yingjia said: "You suddenly came back, so I can't be anxious."
She stood in front of Lu Yao, with her waist in her arms and a little out of breath.
There was no one around. Lu Yao raised her eyes to look at Xu Yingjia, opened her pink lips, and said loudly: "Jiajia, Jian Beibei came to see me today. She said that Jian Chengli likes me."
"Ah?" Xu Yingjia's eyes suddenly widened, as if he had seen a ghost.
Lu Yao's face also showed tangle and confusion. As the saying goes, the authorities are confused, she really didn't know what to do now.
Xu Yingjia never expected that Lu Yao would bring such news. But only this kind of news could make the unshakable Lu Yao suddenly run back to school from the city to find her.
The facial features on his face twisted together, Xu Yingjia frowned and said, "What did Jian Beibei say? She went crazy, telling you this?"
Lu Yao repeated to Xu Yingjia what Jian Beibei said in the afternoon. She asked, "Do you think Jian Beibei lied to me on purpose?"
Xu Yingjia looked unkind, and his eyes were full of calculations and speculations. She replied aloud: "There is no smoke without fire. You and Jian Beibei have been quarreling for so many years. This is the first time she mentioned this. I guess it's not as simple as lying to you."
Lu Yao's heart sank. Could it be that Jian Chengli...
Xu Yingjia raised her eyelids and looked at Lu Yao, who had a very bad expression. She said, "You are not attracted to Jian Chengli again, are you?"
Like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Lu Yao immediately stared at Xu Yingjia and replied urgently: "Do you think I am a person who has two boats?"
Xu Yingjia said: "Can you control your own people and your own heart?"
After eight years of love, Xu Yingjia knew that Lu Yao had also lost herself first this time. She knew that there was no possibility of a relationship with Jian Chengli, so she had to bear the pain and uproot her. If she had other choices, she would have given up long ago after secretly loving each other for so many years. Why waste it until now
Her heart
Lu Yao's face turned pale and she wanted to say that she had forgotten, but she couldn't lie to herself whether she had forgotten or not.
Suddenly burying her head in her hands, Lu Yao was so irritated that she wanted to escape.
Xu Yingjia sat next to her, patted her shoulder, and then said: "You don't have to force yourself so much. After all, you and Jian Chengli met first, and no one can arrange the time and sequence of their encounters. If I had known you earlier, Now that you are with Ji Guanxin, you would not have liked Jian Chengli at the beginning. It is your choice who you want to be with, but whether you remember a person or not is the instinct of the heart, and the brain cannot control the heart. I'm telling you this just to make sure you know what you want. You are already with Ji Guanxin. If you don't like him, say goodbye to him as soon as possible. But if you also have feelings for him, then leave Jane alone. What does Cheng Li think in his heart? What if he really likes you? You have already missed him. Is it possible that you want to go back? "
For the first time, Lu Yao was so annoyed that she wanted to pull her hair. She wanted to have a good start with Ji Guanxin, but deep down in her heart, there was already a place where Jian Chengli lived. In the past, she felt that he didn't like her, and everything was just her unrequited love. She was the only one who felt the pain of cutting off love, and she could bear it. But Jian Beibei told her that Jian Chengli liked her.
How can she be embarrassed by this
