The world is a bitter sea, and people struggle within it.
Is genuine sincerity always belittled? Are kindness and gentleness always bullied? Are ugly commoners always mocked? Is unparalleled ...
Chapter 366: The Girl Who Gave Birth Out of Wedlock (8)
Although he had only met Shi Yi once, Zhang Yue was very persistent. Every day after class, he would go to Shi Yi's seat and hang around. As time went on, the head teacher noticed this and reminded him to pay attention to his personal image, but he still did what he wanted.
Because it had not affected him in any way, Shi Yi let him go. The one who was most worried about this matter was Yin Wei. But he didn't know how to tell his good brother Zhang Yue. The days passed like this.
Shi Yi and Yin Wei had different interests. When they were divided into classes after the first semester of high school, Shi Yi chose liberal arts and Yin Wei chose science. The boys who shared the same dormitory with Yin Wei all chose science. The liberal arts class and the science class were in different buildings, so the two had even less interactions. But Zhang Yue would go back and forth between the two buildings every day.
His behavior caught the attention of the teachers of both classes. After the head teachers of the liberal arts class and the science class took turns to persuade him, he finally restrained himself.
Christmas is coming, and the boys in the dormitory are preparing gifts for the girls they like. Zhang Yue has started making a list early. It is precisely because of their "big fuss" that Yin Wei, who has not taken any action, makes them curious.
"Don't you have anyone you like in the class?" Zhang Yue pushed him and changed the question, "Don't you have anyone you like in your grade or school?"
"Do you have to have one?" Needless to say, the gifts Zhang Yue prepared were all for Shi Yi. When Yin Wei thought of this, he didn't have a good attitude towards Zhang Yue. "
It's not that you have to have one. It's just that people, when they live, they always have to find other goals. If you bury your head in study every day like the teacher said, then you are a fool." Zhang Yue didn't know what he said wrong. Before he finished speaking, Yin Wei had already walked to the door.
"He is a weird person." Zhang Yue exchanged glances with other roommates and continued to immerse himself in his gift list.
Yin Wei walked out of the dormitory door and walked all the way to the downstairs of the girls' dormitory. He had never paid attention to which floor Shi Yi lived on, so he stared at the girls' dormitory with the lights on, and maintained this posture until his neck ached.
"What are you doing? Why don't you go to bed?" Shi Yi, who had just finished exercising, spotted Yin Wei standing there stupidly. He usually wanted to draw a line between him and her, but today he came over for the first time, which surprised her.
"Where have you been? It's so late..." Yin Wei looked at her sweating profusely, and suddenly felt aggrieved. He himself was not aware of this grievance.
"Recently, the pressure of studying has been a bit high, and running relieves the pressure." Shi Yi raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and motioned him to walk to the side.
The place where Yin Wei was standing was within the surveillance range of the girls' dormitory. The two of them standing at the door and talking also attracted the attention of others. She knew Yin Wei and knew that he didn't want others to pay attention to their relationship.
"Tomorrow is Christmas." Yin Wei spoke with some embarrassment. He scratched his head, not knowing why he said such a thing. He felt that he knew Shi Yi well, and she was not interested in these holidays. Sure enough, Shi Yi said, "Oh..." with a look of little interest.
"Have you made any preparations?" Knowing that she was not interested, Yin Wei continued the topic.
Shi Yi shook her head, "I don't have any idea about these, but the other girls in the dormitory have made preparations."
"What if other people give you gifts, will you accept them?" The implication in Yin Wei's words was already very obvious. Shi Yi, who didn't care about this festival at all, said half a beat slower, "No one will give me one."
She said it with such certainty that Yin Wei felt a little uncomfortable.
The Yin family, which was considered wealthy in the small town, was nothing in the county town. His living expenses were not even among the top three in the dormitory. As for Shi Yi, she had never asked her family for living expenses, and he had never paid attention to how she lived. His living expenses were not high, and he could only make ends meet, and he had never thought of preparing any holiday gifts for Shi Yi.
"What if someone gave you one?" His throat was a little dry, and he tried not to let the other party feel that he was different.
"Then we'll see." The cold wind had dried the sweat on Shi Yi's body. She felt the cold and took the initiative to say, "Do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll go back and wash up first."
"What if I send you off?" The words stuck in Yin Wei's throat were blocked by her words. He swallowed hard and said, "You go back. I'm fine."
"Then I'll go." Shi Yi walked a few steps and looked back at him, saying, "The weather is cold, keep warm."
"Okay." Yin Wei watched her walk into the light and turned to walk towards the boys' dormitory.
Yin Wei's going out and coming back did not attract the attention of his roommates at all. They just thought that he didn't want to participate in everyone's topic and went out to avoid it. Seeing that everyone was busy with their own things, Yin Wei, who lay on the bed, quietly stuffed the things in the small bag under the pillow. Zhang Yue, who was sleeping on the upper bunk opposite him, saw his little movements throughout the whole process, patted the dust on the pillow, but didn't say anything.
The next day, Christmas came. The school opened the musical fountain and specially vacated the evening self-study for students to move freely.
Some boys and girls were bold in giving gifts and gave them directly in person. Of course, when they gave gifts, there would be applause and laughter in the classroom. Shi Yi, who was just waiting for the evening self-study to end so that she could go back to the dormitory, remained motionless. She had no intention of participating in these things and sat in her seat reading a book with all her heart.
Zhang Yue, who was hiding in the shadows outside the back door and watching her every move, had a face full of embarrassment. At this time, he was holding a lot of gifts in his hands. He was very flamboyant when he came all the way here. He thought he was very bold, but when he came and found that the person was sitting honestly reading a book, he was a little nervous. He didn't dare to give it to the person in person. What if the person didn't accept it? !
"Shi Yi, come out for a moment." At this time, someone who surprised Zhang Yue-Yin Wei appeared.
Everyone in the liberal arts class knew that Yin Wei was Shi Yi's cousin, and no one made a fuss. Shi Yi put down his book and went out when he heard him calling him.
Zhang Yue saw her leave the classroom door and then entered the back door of the class. When the other students in the class saw him coming in, they wanted to make some noise. He raised his finger and said "hush", stuffed the gift under her desk, covered his face and ran away.
He slowed down his pace after jogging to the corridor, but happened to see Shi Yi who was talking to Yin Wei.
"This is for you, take it." Yin Wei stuffed a small plastic bag into Shi Yi's hand, and then strode away.
Shi Yi looked at the plastic bag in his hand and thought for a while, then opened it. Inside was a pair of strawberry hairpins. She rubbed her fingers on the hairpins for a while, took them out and pinned them behind her head.
Zhang Yue felt that he was very unhappy now.
