two
Feeling that he should not care for the girl in such a way, Jingxi awkwardly added, "I just don't want you to faint again and cause me more trouble"
Which class are you in?" The student on duty at the school gate opened the small notebook in his hand, preparing to take note of the name.
Although Lin Xiangnan's room is next to Jingxi's, in fact, there is still a small distance between them. Walking at a constant speed, it takes exactly eleven steps to reach it
It was Jingxi, who had remained silent all along, sitting beside her, watching as she timidly refrained from taking more food.
Her height is quite remarkable among the other seventeen-year-old girls, approaching 170 cm. Coupled with her dragonfly-like slender figure, her clothes drape elegantly over her, accentuating her delicate collarbone with a slightly loose fit. This often leads people to underestimate her age, and her frequently expressionless face seems to forever stray from the path of cuteness.
Did you just go to buy this? Or did you confirm it again, is it for me?
"How long will it take you to leave this time?" The magnetic voice changed direction in the air
In such frequently changing weather, wealthy families may use air conditioning, while most parents choose to prepare an electric blanket for their children
Lin Xiangnan paused for a moment, staring at the girl's back without any further reaction as he found his seat and sat down, faintly hearing the gossip from that side growing louder
In that small town in the south, it was cold and damp, and there was no such thing as the so-called heating, a small white rectangular object, to ensure a warm passage through winter until the arrival of spring
Hmm. It reminds me of the day she fainted, and the doctor's words to him, "You are malnourished, and your complexion is not very good"
I just transferred schools yesterday, and I have not yet received my uniform
It is said this way, yet still after the pre-bell rings, one tells the girl to hurry up and catch up with oneself
Try this
Lin Xiangnan opened it and found a can of milk tea and some bread in the bag
Following Lin Xiangnan into the classroom was the girl who had greeted her yesterday, with exquisite makeup, carrying a rose pink shoulder bag. As she passed by Lin, she deliberately bumped her shoulder and brushed past, immediately waving to the people in that small circle, "I have arrived"
Lin Xiangnan nodded slightly, awkwardly moving the corner of his mouth, as the silver chopsticks in his hand merely picked up some plain rice and the fish-flavored eggplant strips from the dish closest to him
Do you know her? Lin Xiangnan and Jing Xi walked towards the teaching building together. They are both in the second year of high school, and their classrooms are quite close, with Class 7 and Class 9 being in proximity.
In an atmosphere where the sound of pen tips touching the paper echoed with a "tap-tap," I cleared my throat and said: "I have something to say, everyone please put down your pens first"
Is that so? Thank you
The warmth inside the room collided with the cold air outside, creating a hazy mist that clung to the glass.
As the class is about to start, students are hurrying in twos and threes down the corridor towards their respective classrooms, with some running and shouting "Excuse me" in fear of being late
Lin Xiangnan is not without a trail filled with discussions, with occasional snippets of phrases such as "transferring schools," "getting close to Jingxi," "unknown origins," and "quite beautiful" drifting into his ears.
The young girl, dressed in a youthful manner, immediately changed her expression to one of joy and unexpectedly waved her hand in greeting: "Senior!"
The young teacher, having recently graduated, is currently in an internship phase and is not yet sufficiently experienced in the classroom. She put down the chalkboard eraser in her hand and only then remembered that there was something she had forgotten to mention
Lin Xiangnan was too lazy to respond any further, remaining still at the door. He saw Jing Xizhao walking towards him, carrying a small bag in hand
A sudden surge of emotion welled up from somewhere in my heart
As the formal class bell rang, Lin Xiangnan had just stepped into the classroom, suppressing the prolonged sound of "ding ding..." He was not wearing the school uniform, which made him stand out even more compared to the other students who were huddled together chatting at their desks
This is the difference between the North and the South
"We can only stay for one day, I apologize, we are really too busy. Xiaojing, you must take good care of yourself and Xiangnan," the man said helplessly
On the narrow elongated dining table
It seems that the picture book rarely returns home, and surprisingly used the term "sorry"
Jing Xi smiled politely and glanced at Lin Xiangnan, who was standing nearby and looking troubled: "Let her in, she is a new student"
No need, Uncle, I can take the bus, that would be more convenient
She raised her head to look at Jingxi, remaining silent, the silver object in her hand clinking, stained with the intense color of sweet and sour.
As the weather cools down, her clothing remains as thin as usual. When the weather heats up and summer arrives, she wears denim jeans with bare legs, taking off her jacket to reveal a loose-fitting black short-sleeve shirt that has faded quickly from washing. The number of clothes she has for all four seasons is limited.
Lin Xiangnan took out a pure white nightgown from a white wardrobe adorned with red vine flowers. The gown featured a large collar delicately embroidered with lace, 7-point sleeves that were slightly fitted, and a flowing hem that reached nearly to the ankles
I do not know if it is appropriate for a newcomer to receive such comprehensive attention from head to toe
"Stop making such common excuses. Which class are you in, and what is your name?" He then tapped his notebook with a pen and impatiently asked once more.
Her room is clean and bright, featuring large floor-to-ceiling windows. Hanging from the top track of the window are custom-made floral curtains in a pastoral style. On the floor, there are several small potted cacti that were moved from Jingxi.
Beside the rice that had hardly been touched, a piece of sweet and sour pork rib suddenly appeared in the porcelain white plate
This time it is quite urgent, mainly to see how you all are doing. Yang Zhizhi raised her goblet; both she and the male host were having Western cuisine, accompanied by red wine.
Lin Xiangnan tried his best to appear less like a guest
I am still accustomed to it, thank you, Uncle Jing she replied
"Well, both your mother and I are not often at home, so if you need anything, just ask your brother." The word "brother" was said very naturally as he brought a piece of steak to his mouth with the knife and fork in his hand
"You can keep it." Yang Zhizhi made a "shh" gesture, "Hurry up and eat." A woman nearing forty still possesses such an unpretentious charm, which adds luster to her beauty
As the English class drew to a close, the neat black handwriting on Lin Xiangnan's notes became increasingly faint. His fingers tightened around the pen, forcefully drawing several intermittent diagonal lines on the adjacent blank paper, which had evidently run out of ink. Meanwhile, on the notebook, he had just copied the word "remember" when it abruptly came to a halt.
However, Lin Xiangnan did not have any, and the terms for air conditioning and electric blankets were also heard from the school
A girl suddenly changed the topic within a small circle of several people, shifting from "Yesterday, I found a super cute hairpin at the accessory shop downstairs from my house" to a deliberately lowered voice saying, "Quick, look, she's here. Did you see her when you came to school..." This transition led to a more exciting conversation.
The cyclical routine of a two-point linear path is a mandatory course for each day
Lin Xiangnan knew that she was definitely referring to his not wearing the school uniform, as he had long been warned by the teacher.
Lin Xiangnan has speculated about what exactly caused Jing Xi to undergo such a transformation towards her. She recalls their first encounter, during which he clearly rejected her, even to the point of being unwilling to spare her a second glance.
A few heads began to lift up.
"Hmm, I guess so, none of us have seen her before," the girl responded, making a concerted effort to agree. She tilted her body slightly, her eyes crescent-shaped with laughter, "Well, you can go in now, and remember to wear your school uniform next time!"
I do not need money, as I already have everything. This statement comes from the heart
That is fine
Are you getting used to living here? the man asked her
Without any income in sight, she is a new member who has just joined that group of girls, her face increasingly filled with resentment after hearing the gossip
"I don't know you." He handed her the bag in his hand, "This is for you."
Yang Zhizhi smiled and continued, "Xiang Nan, I left a credit card for you in your drawer. Buy whatever you like."
The change in attitude was too abrupt, and Lin Xiangnan followed closely behind Jing Xi with a meaningful smile. Just as he brushed past the girl, he caught sight of her glaring at her fiercely, reverting to her true self.
"Xiang Nan, you are not familiar with the new school, so I will have Uncle Hui pick you up and drop you off every day." This sentence was directed at her
