I have been running for a long time, and I feel very tired, exhausted by everything
But why should I escape? I haven't done anything wrong, why should I escape? Am I afraid that he will hurt me again? But how else can he hurt me?
In the astonished gaze of the crowd, I fled in a state of panic
With a bang, I stumbled, one leg weakly collapsing to the ground, followed by the second one.
A voice of surprise called out from behind us, and then two petite figures hurriedly rushed to our front; it was He Yiran and Wang Hong from the same dormitory.
Jian Le Ning, I saw that there was sunscreen in the bag you brought back yesterday. I don't know where my bottle went, as my mom must have put it somewhere. When we get to the dormitory, could you lend me yours for a bit? The sun is really harsh today
When the meeting was adjourned, the two of them went to the restroom, so they did not accompany us.
I was carrying the meal I had prepared and walking towards the seat I had claimed, only to find that someone was already sitting in my place. Tang Yu and her friends, who had already served their meals, were sitting nearby and chatting with the person occupying my seat
Someone walked towards me and then crouched down beside me. Instinctively, I grasped that person's hand, and with their help, I desperately struggled to stand up from the ground, breathing heavily and trying to open my eyes in search of a glimmer of light
I even recalled that handsome young man across the ocean, the one I once had a fleeting infatuation with—Qi Xuan
However, in the moment of falling to the ground, I recalled that fire, the scene of escaping from death, thought of my parents whom I could not bear to leave behind, remembered Xiao Jingjing who has never abandoned me to this day, ... thought of Ling Er who shares the same fate as mine and is obedient, remembered Lin Jiarui who almost went to prison for me ...
He smiled and said, "Let's go have a meal too!"
He seemed to sense someone standing beside him, and that person suddenly turned to look at me
Interpersonal interactions can sometimes be very simple; it is sufficient for someone to take the first step.
In the cafeteria, as far as the eye can see, all are students dressed in camouflage uniforms
Jian Le Ning, what is wrong with you? Your expression looks as if you have seen a ghost
Tang Yu suddenly stood up, looking at me in astonishment, his gaze landing on the food stains splattered on the boy's white T-shirt, his expression somewhat unpleasant
"Jian Le Ning, why don't you run further away?" The familiar cold laughter of Xu Yan echoed in my ears, and I immediately realized whose hand I was holding. Thus, I hurriedly released my grip, shook my head, and upon seeing the person clearly, I wanted to run again
I smiled at her and did not refuse
Although I did not join them for dinner last night, everyone naturally became familiar with each other
I stood rigidly in place, watching the expression on Xu Yan's face change from initial astonishment to anger, and finally to mockery
The body instinctively leaned forward, and in that moment, I had a fleeting thought of wanting to let myself perish. I thought to myself, it would be fine to just fall down like this, as I would no longer have to live in constant fear and anxiety
After the morning military training, Tang Yu, who was standing next to me, naturally linked arms with me, blinking his distinctly black and white big eyes, and said
Her father has arrived, saying that he brought her some things, and she should be having dinner outside now, Wang Hong said
Students in the second and third years of high school eat earlier than us, and at this time, almost all those coming to eat are freshmen and instructors
I want to stand up, but I find that I have no strength at all. The sun is mercilessly shining down on me, and I feel a sense of dizziness; my vision has darkened—I seem to have suffered from heatstroke
The school allocated time for us to take a nap at noon, and we will continue training in the afternoon
The blazing sun overhead made my forehead break out in a layer of sweat, which trickled down into my eyes. I couldn't be bothered to wipe it away; the moisture in my eyes was both sweat and tears
Where is Sun Yu? Why haven't I seen her?" Tang Yu looked around and, not seeing Sun Yu's figure, asked He Yiran and the others.
I am wondering if, for these three years, I will have to continue hiding from Xu Yan, constantly on the run.
The body is tired, and the heart is also weary
I apologize, Xu Yan, my classmate did not mean to do it
Tang Yu shouted loudly "hetushucomcom" behind me, and many people's gazes in the cafeteria turned towards me, making me feel extremely embarrassed, with only one thought in mind: to escape
Look! Is that not Jianle Ning and Tang Yu?
I do not know how long I ran, but when I saw the dormitory building getting closer, I realized that my first reaction when I escaped was to want to return to the dormitory
Upon seeing that face, I felt as if I had been electrocuted, my entire body went rigid, my hands trembled violently, and the meal I had prepared was scattered all over the floor
Xu Yan is dangerous, and the smiling Xu Yan is the most dangerous, for you can never know what kind of conspiracy is brewing beneath that seemingly harmless smile
Tang Yu, filled with remorse, helped me explain, while He Yiran and Wang Hong, sitting beside me, looked at me with worried expressions
Xu Yan did not stop me; he merely stood there expressionless, watching me stumble and flee, as if observing a cornered beast in its death throes
