Chapter 31: Fellowship
During evening self-study, Tang Shi was secretly playing with his mobile phone while Chi Jinjin was reading the book recommended by Nan Xuqiu to her.
I have to say that this book is really suitable for Chi Jinjin, and she has made a lot of progress compared to before.
“Lin Shuya, Lin Shuya!”
Tang Shi was looking at her phone and muttering excitedly.
Lin Shuya?
Chi Jinjin remembered the name on Nan Xuqiu's phone screen.
She turned her head to look at Tang Shi and asked, "Tang Shi, who is Lin Shuya?"
"Her." Tang Shi showed her the phone and asked with a smile, "Jinjin, do you know Lin Shuya too?"
Chi Jinjin shook her head and asked, "What is this?"
Tang Shi said to Chi Jinjin, "It's the very popular 'helloidol'. They've started auditioning again this year."
Chi Jinjin had heard Tang Shi talk about it before. It seemed to be a talent show. Every two years, six girls with good singing and dancing skills were selected from three thousand girls who registered to become members of a girl group and debut.
"Jinjin, look at this number seventeen, Lin Shuya. Isn't she super beautiful? I love her so much. She's so pure!" Tang Shi said excitedly. "I'm sure she'll make her debut. She's so damn beautiful, sings well, and dances amazingly."
Chi Jinjin looked at the girl on the phone. She was indeed very elegant and beautiful, with an exquisite oval face and innocent-looking facial features, but her eyes held a fox-like charm.
Not to mention boys, even girls would like and envy her, and there wouldn't be a single ugly flaw on her body.
She doesn't even need to make her debut, just like this, she looks like a shining star.
"How old is she?" Chi Jinjin asked curiously.
Tang Shi replied, "17."
"That's not the same as us." Chi Jinjin couldn't help but think with envy, how come they are both 17 years old, why can she be so beautiful, white and sparkling, while she is pitch black, earthy and ugly.
If she were prettier, like her, or had a little bit of her qualities, maybe she would have more courage to tell Nan Xuqiu about her feelings, instead of just being able to get close to him secretly in the name of friends.
Thinking of this, Chi Jinjin couldn't help feeling a little lost.
Sometimes silence is a virtue, but being silent in front of someone you like is a form of cowardice...
Later, Song Ci became Tang Shi's follower, and he would come to Tang Shi almost every break. Even if Tang Shi chased him out of the classroom with a broom, he would still come to him shamelessly.
Looking at the two people playing outside the classroom, Chi Jinjin found it funny. When she turned around, she accidentally met Shen Moli's eyes. There was a strong coldness in her eyes.
Chi Jinjin thought about it and thought that Shen Moli seemed to like Song poetry.
She rolled her eyes at Chi Jinjin and left the classroom angrily.
Chi Jinjin didn't care and continued to do her homework with her head down.
In early September, the school was going to hold a men's basketball friendly match with other high schools, and the school suddenly became a lot more lively than before.
"classmate."
Chi Jinjin and Tang Shi were walking in front when a voice suddenly came from behind them.
The two looked back and saw a girl wearing a white pleated skirt and a red top appeared in front of them.
She walked up with a smile on her face and asked, "Excuse me, where is the East Basketball Court?"
"In..." Chi Jinjin was just about to answer.
Tang Shi suddenly said excitedly, "You, you, you are not Lin Shuya!"
"Yes, hello, I'm Lin Shuya." Lin Shuya smiled slightly.
Chi Jinjin suddenly realized, no wonder she looked so familiar when she saw her.
"Lin Shuya, why are you coming to our school?" Tang Shi asked.
Lin Shuya replied, "I'm the captain of the No. 2 High School cheerleading team. I'm here today to cheer for our school."
"So you're studying at No. 2 High School!" Tang Shi said happily, "Why don't you come with us to Dongchang? We happen to be going there too."
"Okay." Lin Shuya followed them to the east field.
Along the way, Tang Shi kept praising Lin Shuya and said excitedly, "You don't know, the dance you performed to win the championship was so amazing. I still remember it vividly!"
"It's my honor that you like it. Thank you for liking it." Lin Shuya replied.
Chi Jinjin was too embarrassed to speak, but her eyes kept glancing at her. She was really the "goddess" in the rumors, well-educated, gentle and easy-going.
When she reached the entrance of the basketball court, Lin Shuya suddenly smiled.
Chi Jinjin Tang Shi followed her gaze and saw Nan Xuqiu standing at the door.
"Brother Xuqiu!" Lin Shuya ran over to him and complained, "Your school is so big! I'm lost! Why didn't you come look for me..."
"I was just about to look for you." Nan Xuqiu said.
Tang Shi was puzzled and murmured softly, "What's going on? Why do Shu Ya and Senior Nan look so familiar with each other?"
Chi Jinjin didn't understand what was happening.
But seeing how close they were, Chi Jinjin couldn't help but feel worried.
While she was stunned, Tang Shi had already led her in front of Nan Xuqiu.
"Hello, senior." Tang Shi greeted.
Chi Jinjin also quickly greeted him.
"So, you two know each other?" Lin Shuya said.
Nan Xuqiu replied, "Let me introduce my friend, Tang Shi, Chi Jinjin."
When Chi Jinjin heard her name coming out of his mouth, her heart trembled suddenly.
This seemed to be the first time he pronounced her name.
"Um, you know him too?" Tang Shi asked curiously.
Lin Shuya smiled and said, "I call him brother, of course I know him, we grew up together."
"That's right." Tang Shi nodded in understanding.
Lin Shuya said to Nan Xuqiu, "Brother Xuqiu, have you seen our school?"
"I'll take you there." Nan Xuqiu said.
Lin Shuya nodded, thanked Chi Jinjin and the others, and followed Nan Xuqiu.
"Lin Shuya is Senior Nan's sister?" Tang Shi was puzzled. "I remember that Senior Nan seemed to be an only child. And one's last name is Lin and the other's last name is Nan. How could they be brother and sister?"
"It could also be a cousin." Chi Jinjin said.
Tang Shi agreed, "That's possible. After all, Senior Nan's family is indeed large."
Chi Jinjin breathed a sigh of relief. Thinking of how he had just called her name, she couldn't help but smile. His voice kept echoing in her mind.
Sometimes, she was glad that people could hide their emotions and thoughts, otherwise she would definitely look like a madman.
Chi Jinjin followed Tang Shi to the audience seats. The show started with cheerleaders from various schools dancing to warm up the atmosphere. It must be said that the moment Lin Shuya appeared, the atmosphere had already heated up.
But with the appearance of Nan Xuqiu, Song Ci and Ji Yang, the atmosphere on the field reached its peak and the screams were deafening.
Nan Xuqiu changed into a black sportswear, which was still clean and refreshing, and deeply attracted Chi Jinjin's attention.
Song Ci looked around the audience and his eyes fell on Tang Shi. A smile appeared on his face, and then he blew a kiss to her without any hesitation.
"You're crazy..." Tang Shi immediately looked disgusted, but her ears turned red.
As soon as the whistle blew, the game started immediately and everyone in the seats watched intently.
She watched quietly amidst the bustling crowd, watching the boy she liked calmly formulating tactics in the crowd, or running with high spirits on the field.
The youth’s exuberance is the most touching, as if he has passed through layers of time.
With the last ball landing, this intense game finally came to an end in Nan Xuqiu's hands.
Thunderous applause broke out all around.
Song Ci and Ji Yang stepped forward, wiping the sweat from their faces and high-fived Nan Xuqiu.
"Wow, that was so exciting just now. Senior Nan's last shot was so beautiful!" Tang Shi said to Chi Jinjin with an unsatisfied look.
At this time, Song Ci on the stage actually climbed over the railing in the audience seats and walked towards Tang Shi.
"How was it? Was your boyfriend handsome when he played basketball just now?" Song Ci came to Tang Shi and said as if asking for a reward.
Tang Shi glanced at the gossiping onlookers and said hurriedly, "What boyfriend? I told you, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll give you a big cunt bag!"
"Okay, then you just don't admit it." Song Ci sat down in the empty seat next to her.
Chi Jinjin stood aside, looking at the people around her, feeling very embarrassed. It was not right to leave, nor was it right to stay.
If she had known earlier, she should have evacuated when she saw him coming.
Chi Jinjin thought with regret that she felt that she was shining...
After the party ended, the campus returned to its normal life.
But recently Chi Jinjin has been very happy every day.
"Jinjin, why are you so happy every day? Did you pick up some money?" Tang Shi asked.
Chi Jinjin replied, "No, I'm happy because the National Day holiday is coming soon."
"Oh, that's right. National Day is coming soon." Tang Shi suddenly realized and asked, "You're not going back again, are you?"
"Of course, I miss my parents so much and want to go back to see them." Chi Jinjin said happily.
"Okay." Tang Shi looked at her happy expression and felt a little envious. Chi Jinjin had a home to miss and return to, while her home was not as warm as the hotel.
When Chi Jinjin was feeling happy, she noticed that Tang Shi seemed to be in a bad mood. She asked with concern and a little worry, "Tang Shi, what's wrong with you?"
She was afraid that she might have said something wrong and hurt Tang Shi.
Tang Shi shook her head and pretended to be open-minded and said, "I'm fine. I was just thinking about where to go for fun this National Day."
"Tang Shi, if you don't want to go back to your home, you can come to my house. You are always welcome at my house." Chi Jinjin said. She realized belatedly that what she had just said must have made her unhappy.
"No need, I've already made plans with other friends. Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Tang Shi smiled, "Just be well and go home peacefully."
Chi Jinjin nodded.
To Tang Shi, Father Chi and Mother Chi were indeed very nice people. They were always very welcoming every time she visited them. But no matter how nice they were, or how nice Jin Jin was, it wasn't her home...
National Day soon arrived. Chi Jinjin ran to the station early in the morning, got on the bus and started his journey home.
After returning home, Chi Jinjin had dinner and then fell asleep on the bed. She didn't know why, but she would feel sleepy whenever she rode in a car. Even if she was fully alert, she would still feel sleepy once she got in the car.
This National Day holiday lasted for eight days. On the third night, Chi Jinjin was brushing her teeth when her cell phone suddenly rang.
She took a sip of water, spat out the foam in her mouth, wiped her hands, picked up the phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
Chi Jinjin didn't dare to answer the call from an unfamiliar number, so she waited for it to hang up on its own.
But soon the number called again.
Chi Jinjin then answered the phone hesitantly.
"Hello, hello, is this Chi Jinjin, Ms. Chi?"
A girl's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Yes, I am. Is there anything I can help you with?" Chi Jinjin asked.
The girl on the other end of the phone replied, "Please come to the First People's Hospital of City A right now. A girl named Tang Shi was in a serious car accident and needs surgery. I hope her family can come and sign the consent form as soon as possible."
"What? A car accident!" Chi Jinjin was shocked and became anxious. She tried to stay calm and replied, "I'm far away now. I'm not in City A anymore."
"But now the patient urgently needs a relative's signature. Doesn't she have any other relatives here?"
"Didn't she tell me? Can't find it on the phone?"
The girl replied, "The patient is currently in a semi-comatose state. We spent a long time asking for your name and phone number. Her ID and phone number have been burned."
relatives……
Chi Jinjin suddenly remembered something and said, "I'll give you her mother's phone number."
"Sure, sure."
Chi Jinjin quickly took out the phone number and told it to the nurse on the other end of the line.
She was glad that she had saved Tang Shi's mother's phone number.
But despite this, she was still anxious and worried.
Chi Jinjin ran to Chi Changgui and Zhang Xianmei and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm going back to City A early tomorrow."
"Didn't they say we have an eight-day holiday? Why do we have to go so early?" Zhang Xianmei asked puzzledly.
Chi Jinjin explained, "Tang Shi was in a car accident, it seemed serious, I want to go see her."
"How could a car accident happen out of the blue?" Zhang Xianmei also became nervous.
Chi Jinjin shook her head and said, "I don't know either. He's still unconscious, so I have to leave tomorrow."
"Go ahead." Chi Changgui said, "When you leave, take some extra money. The hospital expenses are high. Buy some fruit or something for them."
"Yeah." Chi Jinjin nodded.
At night, Chi Jinjin tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, constantly worrying about how Tang Shi was doing and whether he was out of danger.
My heart feels like it is being slowly fried in oil.
Chi Jinjin was so worried that she picked up her phone and couldn't wait to call Tang Shi's mother to ask.
The person on the other end of the phone said in a very cold tone, "I have already paid the money. If you want to know how she is doing now, just come and see her yourself. I can take care of her at the same time. I don't have the time."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie." Chi Jinjin hung up the phone.
