When the alarm rang at 6:10, Ruan Mian frowned, and his big eyes narrowed into a small slit. He patted the pillow twice, touched his cell phone, and turned off the alarm without hesitation. Then he turned over and fell asleep again.
Ten minutes later, Ruan Mian felt the bed shaking, and Zhang Tao's deep voice rang in his ears: "Xiao Ruan, get up quickly! You'll be late if you don't get up!"
"You can't be late," Gu Mengping's voice also rang out, "Didn't the instructor say before that if you are late for one minute, you will be punished by running five laps!"
Ruan Mian was still in a daze. In fact, she didn't hear clearly what they were saying. She just felt it was noisy. After struggling for a long time, she finally opened her eyes and sat up.
Perhaps because he was afraid that he might not be sober and wear the wrong clothes, Yu Mu directly handed the hospital uniform to him.
Ruan Mian half-closed his eyes and subconsciously reached out to take it. When he saw Yu Mu's face, he suddenly woke up.
"Thank you..." Ruan Mian said, "Thank you!"
After saying this, he averted his gaze hastily.
He stared at the pink hospital uniform in his hand for two seconds, and caught a glimpse of Yu Mu still standing beside his bed. Ruan Mian did not take off his sleeping vest and put it on as usual, but quickly put on the hospital uniform over the vest.
After folding the quilt simply, Ruan Mian climbed out of bed, quickly put on his school pants, grabbed his toiletries and ran into the public washroom, leaving behind a sentence that still echoed in the dormitory: "Give me five minutes!"
When Ruan Mian said five minutes, it really was five minutes. When she came back, she had even put on her headband.
only……
Zhang Peng looked at his face and was shocked. "Xiao Ruan, were you sleepwalking last night?"
"Huh?" Ruan Mian looked puzzled. "How could our cool guy be sleepwalking?"
"Look at yourself in the mirror," Gu Mengping added, "You have dark circles under your eyes like a panda."
Ruan Mian was silent this time. He had just looked in the mirror when he was washing up and knew what he looked like now.
"Ah," Ruan Mian raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, and said vaguely, "I slept too late last night."
Zhang Peng and Gu Mengping both went to bed not too late and slept very soundly. They didn't even know when Ruan Mian returned to the dormitory last night. When they heard this, they just thought that he came back late.
Instead, Yu Mu glanced at Ruan Mian, then lowered his head, with a hint of apology on his face.
Ruan Mian didn't notice. He turned around and opened the dormitory door to go out. But before he could take a step, he heard Yu Mu calling him from behind: "Xiao Ruan, your collar is not pulled up properly. Your vest is showing."
Ruan Mian paused, whispered "thank you", and raised his hand to straighten his collar.
But he couldn't see it, and after working on it for a long time he still couldn't fix it.
Yu Mu suddenly took two steps towards him and raised his hand to pull the back of his collar.
This was originally a very common action, but Ruan Mian took a big step forward, his eyes a little evasive, "Well... well, I can do it myself, thank you!"
His action was so sudden that Yu Mu's hand was frozen in mid-air. He put it down after two seconds, looking a little lonely.
Seeing him like this, Ruan Mian couldn't help but blame herself, thinking that she was overreacting and it was unnecessary.
Raising his hand and touching the tip of his nose, Ruan Mian made amends in a low voice: "I... I just haven't woken up yet, I don't mean anything else."
Yu Mu smiled at him, and was about to say something else when Zhang Tao came over from behind, put his arm around his shoulders, and said casually, "What are you two whispering about? Let's go, I'm almost fainting from hunger."
The awkward atmosphere just now was broken, Ruan Mian and Yu Mu didn't say anything else, and the four of them went downstairs together.
As soon as I reached the stairs, the nearest dormitory door opened and Bo Yan walked out.
Ruan Mian met his eyes and felt that they had already had supper together, so it would be impolite not to say hello.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mian put on a cool face, raised his chin towards Bo Yan in a self-important way, and uttered only one word, "Good morning."
"Good morning," Bo Yan's eyes flashed with a smile, and seeing the green shadow in Ruan Mian's eyes, he asked half-jokingly, "Did you fight with someone last night?"
Ruan Mian didn't react for a moment, and subconsciously asked: "Fight? Who are you fighting with? You?"
Bo Yan lowered his eyes and looked at him, with a rare hint of helplessness in his tone, "If there was no fight, how come your eyes have become panda eyes?"
Now Ruan Mian was completely furious.
What does Bo Yan mean by this?
Isn't this just mocking him? He can't even win in a fight and gets beaten into panda eyes!
Cool guy absolutely could not accept this kind of humiliation. Ruan Mian's eyes widened and he shouted fiercely at Bo Yan: "You...you'd better pray that you never have the chance to fight with me, otherwise you will definitely become a panda eye!"
After saying this, Ruan Mian turned around and rushed down the stairs with great momentum.
Relying on his long legs, Bo Yan took two steps at a time and quickly caught up with Ruan Mian.
"Cool guy," Bo Yan called Ruan Mian, and he started to flatter her. "I was just teasing you. You're so cool, and you look really good at fighting. Anyone who dares to fight with you is just asking for trouble."
He said this with a very firm tone, and his face showed a sincere expression.
Ruan Mian paused, and his expression visibly improved.
He didn't expect that Bo Yan looked like someone who deserved a beating, and of course he actually deserved a beating, but he could actually be so...
So flexible.
Of course, I never expected that the longest sentence I had ever heard Bo Yan say in one breath since I met him was actually a boast about himself in every word.
Thinking of this, Ruan Mian's expression became better, and he even secretly raised the corners of his lips.
But when he looked up at Bo Yan again, his face became tense again, and he snorted lightly, saying in a very cold and arrogant manner, "It's good that you know."
Bo Yan suppressed his smile and nodded, then calmed down and asked him, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Ruan Mian originally wanted to answer it casually like he did with his roommate before, but he tilted his head to look at Bo Yan and suddenly hesitated.
He suddenly wanted to know, for someone like Bo Yan, who had the same expression almost all day long and seemed to remain calm even when faced with a catastrophe, was there any situation that he could not handle?
For example...for example, being confessed to by someone of the same sex.
Bo Yan was so handsome that Ruan Mian really wanted to know if he had ever been confessed to by someone of the same sex.
What would be Bo Yan's reaction at that time? Would he be able to keep his world-weary face?
Perhaps it was because his hesitation was too obvious, Bo Yan turned his head, moved his thin lips, and asked in a low voice: "Do you want to say something?"
Looking at Bo Yan's light-colored eyes, which shone beautifully in the sunlight, Ruan Mian spoke as if possessed by a ghost: "I... I want to ask you..."
"Xiao Ruan," Yu Mu's voice suddenly sounded behind him, "Hurry up, or you'll miss breakfast."
Ruan Mian was startled for a moment, then came back to his senses. He stammered in response, quickened his pace, and secretly bit his tongue.
Fortunately, he was interrupted. What kind of questions were he just about to ask? !
Ruan Mian was so annoyed by himself that he didn't notice Bo Yan standing beside him. He glanced at Yu Mu, and his eyes were as cold as ice for a moment.
"Just now, what did you want to ask?"
Bo Yan withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to look at Ruan Mian. His tone became much softer. If one listened carefully, one could even detect a hint of persuasion.
"Nothing," but Ruan Mian didn't take the bait this time and answered simply, "I just wanted to ask why you came out alone and not with your roommate."
Bo Yan did not answer immediately. He just lowered his eyes and looked into Ruan Mian's eyes quietly.
For a moment, Ruan Mian even felt that Bo Yan had seen through him.
Just when Ruan Mian couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to look away, Bo Yan suddenly withdrew his gaze and continued to walk forward, and just replied lightly: "They left too early, I didn't think it was necessary, so I didn't go with them."
I woke up late in the morning and didn't walk fast, so my breakfast time was compressed to less than ten minutes.
I hurriedly finished my meal and rushed to the playground, just in time for one minute before the instructor blew the whistle for assembly.
After standing in line, a new day of military training began.
Still benefiting from the fact that there are more girls in the external college, Ruan Mian and his classmates' training can be described as easy overall. It basically consists of standing at attention and some marching, with plenty of rest in between.
Ruan Mian's height of 176.2cm is not considered short in the south, and he can stand in the middle of the team.
But Bo Yan was nearly 1.9 meters tall, which was indeed too tall, so he naturally stood at the front row of the team and was not close to Ruan Mian.
Standing at attention was so boring that Ruan Mian's mind couldn't help but start to wander as he stood there.
The questions that he had wanted to ask Bo Yan before but had never asked began to linger in his mind.
Human curiosity is like this. The more something cannot be asked and has not been asked, the more we want to know.
Ruan Mian felt like there was a naughty kitten in her heart, making her feel anxious and restless.
After a while, he couldn't help it and tilted his head to look at Bo Yan.
They were all standing in the same military posture, but perhaps because Bo Yan's body was too tall, when he stood there with his hands clasped together in the crotch of his trousers and his long legs straight, he looked more pleasing to the eye than others.
Ruan Mian looked at his back and unconsciously forgot to look away.
Has Bo Yan ever been confessed to by a boy?
Did he still stand so straight when he was confessed to?
"The fifth person in the fourth row!" The instructor's powerful voice suddenly sounded above Ruan Mian's head, "Where are you looking at! Look straight ahead, look straight ahead, are your eyes crooked?"
Ruan Mian's thoughts were suddenly interrupted, and his little face flushed red in an instant. He hastily retracted his gaze and looked straight ahead as the instructor said, without blinking, in an attempt to pretend to be good and escape the disaster.
To be honest, Ruan Mian looks really cute. His skin is naturally fair, and now his cheeks are flushed. He looks bright and translucent in the sunlight, like a baby.
This silent look is even more heartbreaking. Most people would not have the heart to argue with him after seeing this.
But the instructor is really not an ordinary person.
"Speak!" The instructor continued to roar loudly, his saliva almost splashing on Ruan Mian's face, "What are you looking at!"
How could Ruan Mian say that he was looking at Bo Yan? !
He lowered his head and answered in a low voice: "I didn't see anything, I just...I was distracted."
"I can't hear you!" The instructor's voice became louder. "Didn't you eat breakfast? Answer me again, what are you looking at?"
There were already quite a few people in the queue, and while the instructor wasn't paying attention to them, they secretly turned their heads and looked over.
Ruan Mian didn’t know whether Bo Yan looked back at him or not. He just felt extremely embarrassed and wanted to put an end to this embarrassing incident as soon as possible.
So he raised his head, looked at the instructor, raised his voice, and repeated: "Report to the instructor! I didn't see anything, I was just distracted!"
Ruan Mian originally thought that the instructor would definitely let him go this time, but he didn't expect that after hearing what he said, the instructor only said four words: "You step out first!"
Ruan Mian didn't know what he was going to do, but he still walked to the side of the team obediently.
The instructor turned around and stood at Ruan Mian's original position. He looked over at the angle he had just tilted his head...
"Just distracted?" The instructor walked out of the line again and looked at Ruan Mian sharply, "Are you only distracted by the second student in the first row?"
The second student in the first row was Bo Yan...
There were already sounds of suppressed laughter coming from the team. Not only did Ruan Mian's cheeks turn red, but the heat went from the tips of his ears to his neck.
The cool guy's reputation is gone!
But what Ruan Mian could not have expected was that the next second, the instructor gave him a heavier and more fatal blow——
He looked at Ruan Mian and gave an order: "Follow my command, march in step!"
Ruan Mian had no way to resist and could only obey, swinging his arms and walking away.
Just as I passed the first row of the team, I heard the instructor give a new instruction: "Turn right and march in step!"
Ruan Mian looked straight ahead, trying his best to ignore the burning gazes coming from the right, and continued walking forward.
By the time he reached the position parallel to Bo Yan, Ruan Mian's whole body was on fire, and he looked like he could spit fire when he opened his mouth.
He seemed to have heard Bo Yan's chuckle...
"Stand still!" the instructor gave the final order, "Turn right!"
Ruan Mian's scalp tingled and he paused for two seconds, but he had no choice but to do as he was told.
Every second was magnified to infinity. Ruan Mian stood still, feeling as if he was being tortured. Slowly, slowly, slowly, he turned to the right.
Now, he and Bo Yan were facing each other, with less than half a person's distance between them...
"Don't you want to see it?" The instructor's voice sounded again, and it sounded like a death note to Ruan Mian's ears, "Today we will stand face to face and let you see enough!"
Ruan Mian’s eyes went dark, and he felt that at this moment, he had ascended to heaven.
