19 Chapter 19: Lovesickness
◎This atmosphere clearly shows that the two of them are having an affair◎
When the two looked into each other's eyes, undercurrents surged.
Xie Yun's breathing was not smooth for the time being, and his cheeks were trembling slightly. He nodded to Wu Yahua as a greeting.
Wu Yahua smiled in surprise and nodded to Xie Yun.
Both of them acted as if they were unfamiliar with each other, and it would be awkward to force themselves to find topics to talk about, so they tacitly agreed not to talk to each other.
Xie Yun sat in the last row by the window on the left, and Wu Yahua sat in the second to last row by the window on the right. The distance between them was neither too far nor too close, just right.
Wu Yahua imagined that if Xie Yun sat down behind her, she would definitely not be able to breathe.
Fortunately, we didn't sit too close.
They drove along in silence.
But Wu Yahua would turn her head to look out the window, and peek at Xie Yun through the reflection on the window.
It was getting dark, and the reflections on the window became clearer. Xie Yun's outline was reflected on the window, just like in a mirror.
Just as Wu Yahua was secretly looking at Xie Yun and was watching him intently, Xie Yun turned his face in the direction of Wu Yahua and looked over.
Wu Yahua suddenly started to comb her hair in a hurry, lowered her head, turned on her phone, and pretended to play with it.
In ten seconds, she did several things at the same time and was very busy.
At this time, the platform name was announced in the car.
"Next stop, Shida Road."
This saved the panicked Wu Yahua. She breathed a sigh of relief. She had finally arrived at the World University.
She picked up the big bag of Chinese medicine and wanted to walk to the back door to prepare to get off the car early. Just as she stood up from her seat, a child was crossing the road in front of her. The situation suddenly occurred. In order to avoid the child, the driver swung the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes in an emergency.
Wu Yahua was thrown by the inertia of the vehicle, and her body lost balance and was about to fall down uncontrollably. She reacted quickly and grabbed the seat next to her to keep her balance, but the trend of her falling backwards did not change.
Just when she thought she was going to fall, a pair of warm and broad hands placed on her back, supporting Wu Yahua as she was about to fall.
A scene from an idol drama was played out in real life and happened to herself. Wu Yahua swore that she would never laugh at the cliché plots in third-rate romance novels again.
Only when you experience such a cliché in real life, you will know how fast your heart beats.
Xie Yun stood behind Wu Yahua, supported her back, helped her stand up, and bent down to pick up several bags of Chinese medicine that had fallen in the car, and put them one by one in Wu Yahua's bag of Chinese medicine.
Amidst the driver's cursing, the bus arrived at the Shida Road stop.
Wu Yahua was immersed in the scene just now. Just as she was about to say thank you, Xie Yun took her arm and led her out of the car, "We're at school."
Xie Yun hooked Wu Yahua's arm with one hand, took the bag of Chinese medicine for Wu Yahua with the other hand, and pulled Wu Yahua out of the car.
The Shida Road stop is 500 meters away from World University, and you can see the school as soon as you get off the bus.
Xie Lili walked out of the school gate to have dinner with a new senior she had just met. She had just sent a WeChat message to Wu Yahua, asking her where she was. When she put down her phone, she saw Xie Yun holding Wu Yahua's hand and crossing the road across the street.
In order to take a shortcut, they avoid taking the road with traffic lights.
"That..." Xie Lili raised her hand and pointed at the two people. She was so excited that she couldn't speak. She watched them cross the traffic and walk to this end of the road.
After safely crossing the road, Xie Yun first saw Xie Lili, who looked surprised. He released one hand that was holding Wu Yahua's arm, but in the other hand, he was still holding Wu Yahua's bag of Chinese medicine.
Wu Yahua saw Xie Lili, whose pupils and mouth were so shocked that they turned round at the same time, and greeted Xie Lili guiltily.
"Lili."
Wu Yahua didn't know why she felt guilty.
"I'll go back first, you guys chat." Xie Yun handed the bag of Chinese medicine in his hand to Wu Yahua.
Wu Yahua said thank you softly.
Judging from the atmosphere, it is obvious that the two of them are having an affair!
Xie Lili glanced at Wu Yahua, then looked at Xie Yun twice more. Ever since he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and added her on WeChat to ask about Wu Yahua, Xie Lili felt that she should have noticed something was wrong long ago.
Now that I caught them walking together, I realized it belatedly.
"Brother Xian, I'll treat you to a meal some other day. My sister is back, so I'm going to have a meal with her first."
Xie Lili kicked away the excellent senior student next to her without hesitation, hooked her arm around Wu Yahua's shoulder, and walked towards the snack street across the road.
Wu Yahua was just brought over from across the road by Xie Yun, and now she was being brought back across the road by Xie Lili, carrying a large bag of Chinese medicine.
"Lili." Wu Yahua stopped and said, "Wait a minute, let's go back to the dormitory first. Let me put the medicine back in the dormitory before we go to eat."
Xie Lili refused and pushed Wu Yahua away, "It's troublesome to go back and forth like this. Let's eat first and then go back to the dormitory."
Guoba rice restaurant.
Two bowls of steaming hot rice crust were placed in front of Xie Lili and Wu Yahua respectively. They both ordered braised pork as topping, and a layer of green chopped green onions was sprinkled on the surface as garnish.
Xie Lili: "Come on, tell me the truth. I said I would accompany you to see the doctor, but you refused. It turns out you had an appointment with Xie Yun to accompany you to the hospital. You're a man who values women over friendship."
"It's not like that." Wu Yahua picked up the rice spoon to eat, but when she heard Xie Lili say this, she gently put the rice spoon down.
Because she also found this matter strange, Wu Yahua smiled helplessly before explaining.
"I said he and I just met by chance while waiting in line at the hospital. Do you believe me?"
Xie Lili: "I'd be a fool to believe that."
"But that's the truth. I went to the hospital to see a psychiatrist, and Xie Yun went too. I was number 25 in line, and he was number 26. We happened to take the same bus back to school. When the bus was about to arrive at the station, I left my seat to get off, and the driver slammed on the brakes, and I fell into his arms."
After listening to this, Xie Lili was silent for more than ten seconds, then said, "Hi, sister, are you making up a story? Do you want me to contact my writing friends and arrange for you to sign a contract?"
Wu Yahua: "I know, it sounds fake..."
Xie Lili took over the conversation, "That's completely fake. You said he went to the psychiatric department with you, and you took such a big bag of Chinese medicine, but what about him? He only had a cell phone in his hand, not even a packet of cold medicine."
Right, where is Xie Yun’s medicine?
Only then did Wu Yahua realize that Xie Yun had gone to see a doctor. If he didn't get any medicine, why could he still take the same bus with her back to school?
The two people's schedules don't match.
If he hadn't taken the medicine, he would have left earlier.
It’s not that Xie Yun didn’t want to take medicine, but the doctor, after listening to his description of his symptoms, felt that there was no need to prescribe medicine for him.
The doctor asked Xie Yun about his age and whether he had a girlfriend. After hearing that Xie Yun did not have a girlfriend, the doctor told him to go back to school and find a female classmate he liked and had a good impression of.
Doctor: "Your condition, in ancient Chinese parlance, is lovesickness."
Xie Yun asked, "Then in modern terms, what is my illness?"
The doctor was speechless and couldn't say anything.
"You've been dreaming about a woman repeatedly, which means you're feeling empty, lonely, and alone. A twenty-something guy, just having a girlfriend will cure your illness. Next."
The doctor asked Xie Yun to leave without even prescribing any medicine.
Wu Yahua said that the doctor was kind. According to Xie Yun, the doctor looked so young and was most likely a quack. He could not describe the disease using professional terms and just told the patient to have a girlfriend.
He even said he was lovesick. How many times had he met Wu Yahua, and how much did he miss her? Hilarious.
Although he looked down on quack doctors, Xie Yun did not leave immediately after coming out of the hospital. Instead, he went to a cafe near the hospital, ordered a cup of coffee, and wanted to wait for Wu Yahua to go back to school together.
He developed a strong interest in her and wanted to know what was it about her that made him dream about her so frequently, even though she was a stranger to him.
After waiting for a long time, Xie Yun drank several cups of coffee and felt the urge to urinate. When he went to the toilet, Wu Yahua came out of the hospital with a large bag of Chinese medicine.
When Xie Yun came out of the bathroom, he saw Wu Yahua already standing in front of the incoming bus.
Xie Yun had never been so embarrassed before. In order to catch a bus, he ran on the street without caring about his image, and waved his hands to ask the bus to stop even though its doors were already closed.
After returning to school, Xie Yun and Wu Yahua separated because of the appearance of Xie Lili. He did not return to the dormitory, but strolled around the school.
He walked to the place where he first picked up the dog, egg and cat.
"I wonder how Goudan is doing now. Has he been adopted by someone?" Xie Yun said to himself.
Many days have passed, and knowing that there is little hope of finding Goudan cat, Xie Yun's only wish now is that it can be adopted by kind-hearted cat lovers.
When Wu Yahua and Xie Lili were about to finish their meal, Xie Lili received a call saying that the student union had an emergency meeting to hold.
Xie Lili is a key member of the student union and must attend this meeting.
Xie Lili emptied the rice at the bottom of the bowl in a few mouthfuls and said to Wu Yahua, who was eating faster, "I have something to do. I'll be leaving first."
"Hey." Wu Yahua called her, "Wait for me. Just now when we were having dinner, you promised me that you would help me carry the medicine back to the dormitory. I promised you that you would eat first and then go back to the dormitory."
"I'm sorry, sister, I really have something to do. I'll find a boy to help you carry it later..."
Before Xie Lili could finish her words, she ran away. Wu Yahua stuffed his mouth with rice and tried to chew it quickly to catch up with Xie Lili, but it was too late.
Xie Lili jumped and ran like a monkey, and disappeared in front of Wu Yahua's eyes.
Wu Yahua secretly scolded her for being disloyal.
Finally, facing the moon, Wu Yahua had to carry the heavy bag of Chinese medicine by herself and returned to school full of resentment.
When they arrived at the fountain square, Wu Yahua felt that the figure looked familiar from afar. When he got closer, he found that it was that familiar face again.
Thank you for your luck.
On this day, they met by chance in the hospital, on the bus back to school, and this time in the school's fountain square, the two had met by chance three times.
If it is not man-made, then the fate arranged by God is really wonderful.
What day is today? Is it that the matchmaker is working overtime to complete his task and has to press down the heads of these two people and force them to kiss?
Wu Yahua's eyes were fixed on Xie Yun. Xie Yun couldn't ignore the face that appeared in his dreams every night.
"Go back to the dormitory." He called.
She replied, "Yes."
Seeing Wu Yahua struggling to carry the large bag of Chinese medicine, Xie Yun offered his hand and said, "I'll carry it for you."
Wu Yahua was polite to him, "No need, I can raise it."
"I'll help you."
"Thank you." Wu Yahua was just polite to him and handed the heavy bag of Chinese medicine to Xie Yun.
Xie Yun was just being polite. If she refused again, he would say goodbye to her and leave the school to get the express delivery.
However, Wu Yahua's politeness tripped Xie Yun and he had to walk back with Wu Yahua, carrying the bag of Chinese medicine.
Remembering that Xie Lili said she would find a man to help her carry the Chinese medicine later, Wu Yahua thought Xie Lili was just talking, but she didn't expect Xie Lili to call Xie Yun.
Xie Lili also said that her relationship with Xie Yun was average. How could their relationship be average?
Wu Yahua asked, "Did Lili ask you to help me carry the medicine?"
Xie Lili never asked anyone to help Wu Yahua carry the Chinese medicine.
Xie Yun just went out of the school gate to pick up a package and happened to meet Wu Yahua who was returning to school after dinner. But in the current situation, denying it would only make everyone embarrassed, and the big bag of Chinese medicine in his hand would also be embarrassing.
He could only follow her words and answer: "Yes, Xie Lili asked me to come."
Wu Yahua thought that Xie Yun was a good person. From a cat's perspective, he was one way, and from a human's perspective, he was another way.
Xie Yun accompanied Wu Yahua all the way to the bottom of the girls' dormitory, attracting the attention of many passing girls.
After Xie Yun handed the large bag of Chinese medicine to Wu Yahua, she had been thinking about it since they met at the fountain square. Now that they were about to separate, she mentally encouraged herself and said, holding her phone, "Why don't we... add each other on WeChat?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere became very awkward.
Wu Yahua and Xie Yun were both picking at the soles of their shoes with their toes.
"Okay, okay." Xie Yun took out his phone, "I'll scan you."
Wu Yahua tapped twice on her phone with trembling hands and handed over the QR code.
Xie Yun scanned it with his phone and said, "This is your payment QR code."
!!!
At that moment, Wu Yahua wanted to dig a rat hole and crawl into it.
Would Xie Yun think I was mentally retarded for making such a low-level and stupid mistake?
Wu Yahua blamed herself and her face turned red. When she hurriedly changed the payment QR code to the WeChat friend adding code, she received a message.
【WeChat payment, 0.1 yuan】
After transferring the money, Xie Yun grinned at the bewildered Wu Yahua and said, "I just have ten cents in my WeChat wallet. I'll give it a try."
