Chapter 4 When are you going to confess?
Meng Tang felt that if she stayed for another second she would be exposed. Her anxiety seemed inexplicable and guilty to others.
She couldn't guarantee that Xu Heqing would be able to figure out her feelings from the clues.
"What kind of meeting?" Wei Chuan saw that she was panicking and took the initiative to cover it up. "She almost got scalded by the soup, I helped her."
Xu Heqing saw Meng Tang's appearance and asked in surprise, "It's you?"
Meng Tang was stunned: "Do you remember me?"
Xu Heqing naturally knew that she was Xie Lingyin's roommate, but he did help her during their freshman year.
"Remember, you're allergic to kiwi."
Meng Tang's eyes lit up, he actually remembered.
Wei Chuan took the opportunity to push her to sit at the table and asked, "Have you two known each other before? You sound very familiar."
"Not familiar." Meng Tang pursed his lips, "I was allergic to kiwi fruit in the cafeteria, and classmate Xu took me to the hospital."
Wei Chuan was amused: "You know you're allergic to kiwis, but you're still rushing to eat them? Which cafeteria makes you so greedy? Introduce it to me."
Meng Tang: "...The beef was marinated with kiwi fruit, I didn't know."
After saying that, she lowered her head and used chopsticks to put the rice into her mouth one grain at a time.
Because of the addition of Wei Chuan's roommate, the person sitting opposite her now is Xu Heqing.
Wei Chuan's other two roommates, Liang Heng and Li Zhuo, listened to Wei Chuan's explanation last night and stopped making jokes.
When I learned that Wei Chuan asked Meng Tang to carve something in order to confess his love, I was curious and asked:
"Brother Chuan, who is the person you like? Why are you hiding it so tightly?"
Meng Tang was also curious and looked away slightly.
As far as she knew, there were quite a few girls who liked Wei Chuan.
"I'll tell you after I successfully confess my feelings. What if she doesn't like me?" Wei Chuan said righteously, "Even if she fails, it won't affect her."
Liang Heng said in an exaggerated tone: "Are there any girls who don't like you?"
Wei Chuan: "That's right."
There was one sitting next to him.
Xu Heqing laughed: "When are you going to confess?"
"I asked Meng Tang to carve a little gadget for me." Wei Chuan glanced sideways. "Let's talk about it after it's done. It will take at least a month."
Xu Heqing laughed: "Since summer vacation, he has been shouting in the group that he wants to confess when school starts, but he is just talking and not doing anything."
"This is definitely not a fake trick," Wei Chuan showed his white teeth, "I had someone make this thing."
Meng Tang listened to their conversation the whole time. The Sports Institute was a mixed dormitory for athletes and sports media, and they talked about the CUBAL competition.
The grassroots competition is an inter-school competition within the province, and only the top two can advance to the regional competition.
After dinner, Wei Chuan said to his roommates, "You guys go first, Meng Tang and I have something to do."
Knowing that they were going to talk about wood carving, Xu Heqing stood up first.
Meng Tang had been staring at Xu Heqing intentionally or unintentionally, and found that he turned to the east and got some food to take away.
Meng Tang was confused. Hadn't he already eaten?
Wei Chuan calmly waved in front of Meng Tang: "Do you like him?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Meng Tang retorted excitedly, as if stressed out.
"Oh? Did I really see it wrong?" Wei Chuan looked confident.
"No, I don't like you," Meng Tang retorted guiltily, "Don't talk nonsense."
That beautiful face was full of panic.
Wei Chuan wanted to laugh: "You must be kidding me, you left as soon as he came. You were so anxious that you almost cried because of the misunderstanding. You didn't dare to look at him during the meal, but you stared at him intently after he left."
"I……"
Meng Tang wanted to cry but had no tears. She couldn't help but complain about Wei Chuan in her heart: He was not careful when he should be, and his eyes were like burning with Samadhi Fire when he shouldn't be.
There was no other way. Meng Tang felt wronged and begged Wei Chuan cowardly: "Can you keep it a secret for me? I'll carve it for you for free and only charge you for the wood."
Wei Chuan found Meng Tang very interesting and asked with a smile, "Have you never thought about confessing your love?"
Meng Tang was silent for a long time, then said, "Wouldn't it be embarrassing if I got rejected?"
"Embarrassing?" Wei Chuan was genuinely amused. "Who hasn't had embarrassing experiences? Besides, shouldn't you feel painful and upset when your confession is rejected? You only care about being embarrassed?"
"You don't understand." Meng Tang insisted on being himself.
"I'm the one who wants to confess, how could I not understand?" Wei Chuan pointed at himself. "You and Xu Heqing are not in the same courtyard or class. Even if you are rejected, only you will know. Xu Heqing is not a talkative person."
"If you want Xu Heqing's WeChat, I can give it to you. You're going to die anyway, so don't suffocate yourself to death."
Meng Tang shook his head: "Forget it."
Even if I really gave it to her, she wouldn't dare add to it because she has no reason.
Seeing that he wanted to discuss Xu Heqing with her, Meng Tang hurriedly asked, "Do you have any ideas about wooden carvings?"
Wei Chuan shook his head: "As long as it looks good."
Meng Tang: "Only if you tell me your ideas can I design them accordingly. There's a huge difference between carving a rose for two hundred dollars and carving it for two thousand dollars."
Wei Chuan: "My requirement is that it be exquisite."
“…Gone?”
“No more.”
Meng Tang frowned: "It's too general. Give me some more details, such as what elements you want."
Wei Chuan scratched his head and said, "I really don't understand. Just look at the design."
"……All right."
"I'm not short of money, I can do whatever I want."
Meng Tang knew that he was not short of money, and the discussion in school about Wei Chuan being a rich second-generation never stopped.
The two of them headed south along the path leading to the cafeteria's main entrance.
It was awkward not to speak, but Wei Chuan was not one to be silent. He looked at the fork in the road ahead and asked Meng Tang, "Where are you going?"
The tone was as familiar as that of a friend.
"To the wood carving studio."
She spent very little time in the dormitory. Besides the heavy workload, she also dared not slack off for a moment in the wood carving skills she learned from her grandfather.
During her four years in college, she has always followed the old man's requirement of "no work, no rust".
I have to go back once a month for the old man to check.
"I'm going to training." Wei Chuan said.
Meng Tang said "Oh", hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped.
Wei Chuan turned and looked at her: "Anything else?"
He was too tall, and Meng Tang felt tired even when looking up.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Wei Chuan, but just to put her mind at ease, she asked, "Can you really help me keep this secret?"
There was worry and doubt in those pale pupils.
Wei Chuan paused for two seconds, took a step forward, and said, "Well, I'll tell you a secret too."
Meng Tang subconsciously asked: "What?"
"I'm a bit of a face-sitter," Wei Chuan said slowly, "I was afraid of being rejected, so I never told my roommate who I liked. Now that I've told you, we've exchanged secrets, so you don't have to worry."
Meng Tang was stunned: "You want to tell me, who is the person you like?"
"Yeah." Wei Chuan waved his hand, motioning her to come closer.
Meng Tang took a step forward suspiciously and put his ear close to it.
Wei Chuan passed her slightly and whispered a name in her ear.
Meng Tang took a step back in shock: "What did you say?"
Wei Chuan thought Meng Tang looked really dumbfounded, so he asked with a smile, "Why are you so surprised? Do you know Xie Lingyin?"
Meng Tang: “…”
More than just knowing each other!
