Shi Xirou followed Wang Xian upstairs and asked, "Auntie, do you live alone in your house?"
"There are two nannies. One took leave to go home and prepare for her son's wedding, and the other went to the hospital to take care of her daughter and won't be back until tonight. Aunt Liu has a hard life too. Her daughter was in a car accident and hasn't woken up yet. Speaking of which, I heard from your mother that you two were roommates?"
Shi Xirou said calmly: "Yes."
Things in this world are unpredictable. We never know which will come first, an accident or tomorrow.
Wang Xian sighed in her heart for a few words, and then said, "Xixi, Auntie wants to cook for you and your mother at noon. Would you like to stay?"
"Of course I am willing. Thank you for your hard work, Auntie."
"This is Chi Chi's room. Go in and take a look. Auntie won't disturb you anymore."
"OK."
After she left, Shi Xirou stealthily locked the door and video-called Rong Jian.
"I thought you were asleep."
"I'm not asleep. I'm waiting for you."
"Guess where I am?"
"My room."
"Where is the love letter you mentioned?"
"...It's on the bookshelf with the Classic of Mountains and Seas."
Shi Xirou: "..."
There are so many books on the bookshelf, why is she placed there with "Classic of Mountains and Seas"? Is she a monster in his eyes?
The "Classic of Mountains and Seas" was placed a little high, and Shi Xirou could only reach it by standing on tiptoe.
The cover of the love letter is red and reads:
"Senior 3 (1) Shi Xirou
96 94 4826 64”
"What does this string of numbers mean?" Shi Xirou asked curiously.
Rong Jian clutched the sheets awkwardly and uttered, "I like you. Typed this with the 9-key."
"Oh, that's it." This person is really subtle and straightforward.
The beginning of the love letter was full of praise for Shi Xirou. Shi Xirou read it to the end quickly and read aloud:
"Classmate Shi Xirou, I want to have a beautiful future with you. I really want to accompany you for the rest of your life, warming each other and falling into the embrace of dusk.
I will be loyal to you forever and only love you in this life. Can you give me a chance to pursue you after the college entrance examination?
Senior 3 (8) Class Chen Chi
May 21, 2022
Rong Jian immediately pulled up the quilt to cover his burning face. What was going on with this feeling of shame and excitement? The most daring thing he had done at that time was to stuff a love letter into her drawer on her birthday.
Shi Xirou did not comment on how the love letter was written. She stared at the arrogant red comments with her big eyes.
"① Mr. Chen Chi, I don't want a bright future with you! You're just dreaming!
② My family doesn’t need any other warmth. I only fell in love after I turned 30. Go find someone else, don’t try to get me (cross out the word “home” halfway through)
③ You deliberately wrote this before the college entrance examination. What bad intentions do you have? Are you trying to influence my mentality? Can a poor boy like you take responsibility for not getting into Z University? Can you afford it?
After a long while, Shi Xirou and Rong Jian spoke at the same time:
"I'm sorry, this annotation was written by my father."
"I'm sorry, I should have told you in person after the college entrance exam."
"I really didn't know about this!"
"Fortunately, you were not affected and successfully passed the provincial exam and ranked among the top ten."
"It doesn't matter."
"It doesn't matter."
The two looked at each other and laughed like idiots.
"Interview, how did you feel when you received the reply letter?"
"When the envelope was returned, I knew it was rejected. It was expected. But when I saw the note, I was sad for a while. I suspected it wasn't written by you, but your handwriting is very unique, so I didn't bother you any further."
"Do you recognize my handwriting?"
"Of course, your excellent essays were printed and posted on the campus corridor, and I saw them all." What Rong Jian didn't say was that he also secretly tore off a copy and hid it in the graduation album. He also locked the album for fear of being seen by others.
The love letter was taken away by Shi Xirou, on the grounds that she wanted to return it to its original owner, and what was written to her belonged to her.
There was no change in his room. Wang Xian would come to clean it herself every day. Shi Xirou sat on the edge of the bed covered with gray sheets and carefully observed the items in the room.
Her second and third brother's rooms are decorated with posters of basketball stars and a lot of action figures. His room is filled with a computer and books. His style is similar to that of her eldest brother, very monotonous. But her eldest brother does not confuse his bedroom with his study.
"Hey, do you have any bird files on your computer?"
Rong Jian was confused: "What kind of file is that?"
"That's right, the film you boys watch. The file name ostensibly says it's a math material or physics test, but it's actually a recording of Teacher So-and-so's sports class. Don't you want to watch it?"
Rong Jian: (〃′o`)
She had only been home for a dozen hours, what on earth had happened?!
"I don't have anything like that on my computer."
Shi Xirou nodded in understanding: "So you have seen it."
Rong Jian hurriedly explained, "A roommate played it when I was in college. I only watched a little bit."
"And then, does it look good?"
"I don't feel anything. I feel very bored."
Shi Xirou opened her mouth wide, ah, no feeling?
That shouldn't be the case. She would drool when she saw even a little bit of cleavage on her favorite female star.
Is she bad or is he bad?
"Mr. Shi, when will you come over?"
Shi Xirou smacked her lips. "After we waited for Da Zha to marry Bing Bing, Dragon Daddy was so handsome and yet so pitiful. My fire kissed my lover for me. Now I understand Linglang. The ghost fire boy and the fragrant and soft little cakes are really delicious~"
Rong Jian didn't quite understand and just kept expressing his feelings: "Shi Xixi, I miss you so much."
"I miss you in Chentangguan too."
