☆, Chapter 11
If it was the latter, it would be fine. Qin Rui was a nerd in their class, devoted to reading sage books. He looked like everyone's stereotype, with a buzz cut that the principal would praise, and wore glasses with lenses as thick as the bottom of a bottle.
All he did all day was eat and study. Every time everyone ran out of the classroom, he was the only one who stood still like a mountain, and he was always muttering something that no one else could understand.
If it's the former, then I'm sweating profusely.
Xi Ruoling's looks are comparable to his, but they are of different types. Xiu Yangui is a pretty boy, but also a smiling tiger; Xi Ruoling is the neighbor's brother, cold as a bamboo but gentle.
Xi Ruoling was a transfer student who transferred to Class 3 in the second semester of his senior year. He and Xiu Yangui became the center of discussion as everyone was discussing who was the real school hunk.
However, the two have different ways of entertainment and learning paths, and they have not had the chance to meet so far, so Xiu Yangui doesn't know what kind of person Xi Ruoling is.
After all, he was not afraid that Xi Mo would fall in love with Xi Ruoling, but he was afraid that Xi Ruoling had bad intentions. After all, one can only know a person's face but not his heart, so he had to keep an eye on Xi Mo.
Damn it, he didn’t listen carefully when the voice came just now, and he couldn’t tell the identity of this person at all.
The toilet where he was staying was next to the corridor. If he peeped in now, he would be discovered immediately. He could only wait until they walked down the corridor to go and see.
"Student Xi."
"Um?"
Very good, now Xiu Yangui knows who that person is without even looking, it’s Xi Ruoling.
And he just said "Hmm?", why is he pretending to be a cool and aloof man? It makes me so angry. What on earth does Xi Mo want him to do? Just tell him to get out.
Xiu Yangui hid in the toilet with gritted teeth, feeling helpless and furious.
"Can you give me your contact information?"
A loud thunderclap.
What! Xiu Yangui couldn't stay any longer and wanted to rush out immediately, grabbing the mop in the corner.
Okay, he lied just now. He was still very afraid that Xi Mo would fall in love with Xi Ruoling.
However, they forcibly exchanged contact information in a place where he couldn't see. When Xiu Yangui heard the "ding dong" sound indicating that the code was successfully scanned, his heart was broken.
It’s fine if Xi Mo carries her cell phone with her, but why do you, a single person, carry your cell phone with you too? It’s so annoying!
"Then I'll go first, see you tomorrow." It was that hateful person.
"See you tomorrow." It was Xi Mo.
Very good, now that Xi Ruoling is gone, only Xi Mo is left, right now.
"Xi Mo!"
Xi Mo turned around and looked, and unexpectedly met Xiu Yangui in this teaching building. He looked aggrieved and anxious, with distress in his eyes that she could not understand, and his hair on his forehead was still wet.
"What's wrong?"
Xi Mo looked calm, as if she was not angry with him for not admitting that they knew each other before.
"I..." Xiu Yangui couldn't help it. He couldn't stand the cold relationship between him and Xi Mo again. "I'm sorry."
If it was Xi Mo in the past, her answer would definitely be "hmm" or "it's okay", but she said:
"Do you feel ashamed to know me?"
"No, no, I, I..." Xiu Yangui denied it flatly, but he stammered and could not explain clearly.
"Yeah, I see. There's something else."
"No, no, no, I, I, I..."
Xiu Yangui hurriedly stopped Xi Mo, his mouth faster than his brain, "Knowing you is the happiest thing in my life!"
"I just..." "I didn't mean to say that, no no, I, I said it on purpose, but I didn't mean any harm, because..."
The tall and handsome boy who stopped her had a red and pale face, which looked funny but not ridiculous. He spoke in a stammering voice. He was always eloquent and confident in everything he did, but he was at a loss in front of the girl who was a head shorter than him, like a puppy who had done something wrong.
Xi Mo no longer forced him, "If you can't say it, then don't say it. It doesn't matter."
"Perform well in the sports meeting, and we will cheer you on."
Xiu Yangui responded in a hoarse voice, watching Xi Mo walk down the stairs and disappear from his sight. He had forgotten what project he had signed up for while he was distracted. Oh, he was also the host of the opening ceremony.
After this incident, their relationship did not ease, as if they were still in a cold war.
Xi Mo was still very busy, and Xiu Yangui was also busy with the opening ceremony of the sports meeting. Apart from attending classes in the same classroom, the two of them never met again. Even on the way home, although their homes were so close, they never met.
The situation is back to square one, or even worse.
Xi Mo was troubled by Xiu Yangui's matter, but she had actually forgiven him. It was just that they had never had a chance to talk, and the competition was about to begin. They would find time to talk after the competition.
Xi Mo has always been a person who plans things very well. She knows exactly what to do and when.
The teacher in charge of the competition team chartered a bus and took the students to a school in the next city to participate in the competition. After the competition, he took the students back to school and let them leave on their own.
Maybe I forgot because I was busy recently. When I returned to school, the sky became gloomy and it looked like it would rain. Xi Mo suddenly realized that she didn't bring an umbrella with her when she went out today.
Sure enough, it started raining after a while. It was neither heavy nor light, and it might stop in a while. Xi Mo took out her cell phone to play for a while to kill time, but found that the phone had lost power and was turned off.
Everyone had left an hour ago. Because she had just had her period today and felt a little unwell, she lay down in the classroom for a while. She didn't expect that she couldn't leave now.
I remember that I didn’t have dysmenorrhea in my previous life, but the pain this time was awful. My abdomen was cramping and my hands and feet started to feel cold. It was probably because the humidity was too high.
Xi Mo wrote down her physical discomforts in a notebook. Since no one at home could take care of her in every detail, she started learning how to take care of herself from a very young age.
It's just that there have been too many things to do recently and the pressure of studying is too great, so she forgot to put her health first. It's really negligent.
Xi Mo felt a little sleepy, lying on the table with her head buried, as if she had fallen asleep but also as if she hadn't.
Although her body was very cold, Xi Mo was unwilling to leave the table and chair. The seat had been warmed up by her body temperature, and she was unwilling to move and touch the cold again.
Suddenly, something was draped over my body, dispelling the coldness. The warmth of someone else's body temperature flowed through the fabric to my slightly cold torso and spread out.
Xi Mo raised her head and met Xiu Yangui's worried eyes, "Xiu Yangui?"
"Well, what's wrong? Are you cold?"
Xiu Yangui's hair was wet again, and there was water on his face, making him look very disheveled.
Xi Mo lowered her eyes, and the small mole at the end of her eyebrow seemed to have faded with weakness. "Cold."
"Come on, put the hot pack on."
"I also brought you a rice ball. It's from the place you like near the school gate. Luckily, it's still open. I asked the boss to make one for you."
"I didn't buy anything to drink. I'll get you some hot water."
Xiu Yangui kept muttering in her ear. If Xi Mo was not feeling well, she would probably feel annoyed, but at this moment she hoped that Xiu Yangui could keep talking.
After taking good care of Xi Mo, Xiu Yangui exhausted all his strength and sat down on the ground. His hair in front was already tangled, but he, who was most concerned about his image, had no time to care.
Xiu Yangui looked up at Xi Mo holding a thermos, with a heat pad on her belly, and huddled obediently in her coat. He was glad that the coat he wore today was waterproof, otherwise Xi Mo would be even colder wearing a wet coat.
Xi Mo felt much better, "How did you know I was here?"
Xiu Yangui smiled, looking mysterious and profound, "I just know it."
"Just like I know you're the top scorer in the final exam."
Xiu Yangui regretted not seeing Xi Mo's surprised expression as he had expected. "Aren't you surprised at all? I'm not lying. It really is you."
"Hmm," Xi Mo drank water like Lao Lin drank tea, slowly and steadily. "Another precognitive dream? Did you see me at school?"
Xi Mo knew it was impossible just by using her fingernails. In her previous life, her menstrual period was very regular and she never had dysmenorrhea. Naturally, she would not stay at school because of feeling unwell and then be unable to go home because of the rain.
"Hmm..." Xiu Yangui was unwilling to speak again, as if telling the truth would be like having his bones pulled out, "Alas."
Xiu Yangui sat on the ground with his legs apart, his legs stretched under Xi Mo's chair, and he hugged his arms and buried his head in them.
"Well, I saw a post from Qin Ruifa's Moments. He said around 4:00 PM that he had finished the exam and that he was second or something. The background of the picture was a bus seat. I knew you were on your way back to school."
"I checked the journey time, and it'll take you 40 minutes. That teacher isn't the type to give you detentions, so he'll definitely let you leave right away when you get to school. And since you didn't ask the driver to pick you up, you'll walk on your own."
"It only takes you about ten minutes to walk home. You take small steps and aren't very fast, so let's assume it's twenty minutes. You'll definitely be home around five forty. I always calculate your home time this way, and it's always correct, and then..."
"Every time?" Xi Mo caught the blind spot.
"Ah? What? What did I just say?" Xiu Yangui kept talking, not even realizing what boyish feelings he had revealed.
"It's okay, keep talking."
"Oh, and then, we were talking about that, and then I saw that the weather looked bad, it was raining. I knew you must have brought an umbrella, but what if you didn't? I became more cautious, so I asked Qin Rui if you had left, and he said he didn't know. Then I went to your house to see if the light in the porch was on, but it wasn't, so you didn't go home."
"I," Xiu Yangui said, rubbing his face against the crook of his arm, "I remembered that you had your period during these days last month, and I thought you might have your period during these days this month too, so I bought some things and came to school to try my luck."
After Xiu Yangui finished speaking, he buried himself completely in his arms, revealing his red ears.
After listening to his long speech, Xi Mo felt a little dazed. It turned out that there was someone in this world who understood her so well.
Although from Xiu Yangui's words it seemed that he did these things with ease and made various predictions with great powers, Xi Mo could actually feel the deep emotions hidden in him.
He thought of the concern when waiting for her to come home, the worry when asking the people who traveled with her but didn't know her whereabouts, the anxiety when he found out that she had not returned home yet, and the emergencies she might encounter, and took corresponding measures in such a short time.
Xi Mo felt very warm, not only physically but also in her heart.
That was the heavy feeling that a young man as hot as the sun had for her. He walked through the wind and rain and gave her the gift unconditionally.
At the same time, Xi Mo discovered that Xiu Yangui was not an adolescent boy who was unwilling to say anything. On the contrary, he was willing to speak, willing to communicate, and willing to tell her every detail.
As long as she asked, she wanted to know, he would try his best to speak.
Xi Mo sat there, her body filled with the scent of laundry detergent on Xiu Yangui's coat. She wondered if their ending in their previous life was too much of a pity.
Xiu Yangui is a little snail. He has a heavy shell and is very fragile.
If you find him, choose to take the initiative to go forward, see him, contact him, and take a step to step into a world that you don’t know but he will always stick to.
He will tentatively extend his tentacles, and then give you everything.
Xiu Yangui was uneasy because of Xi Mo's silence. He hid for a while and said in a muffled voice: "I'm not a pervert, I just... I'm really not a pervert."
Xiu Yangui thought that Xi Mo couldn't stand the fact that he knew so much about her affairs, so he could only make weak explanations and didn't even dare to raise his head.
Xi Mo blinked her moist eyes. Fortunately, he didn't dare to look up, otherwise he would be scared by Xi Mo with red eyes. "I know you care about me."
"I...whatever you think, it's true." The stubborn boy made meaningless movements.
As expected, I am still seventeen years old, I care about face but I am also sensitive to it. I can’t say love, I miss you, I like you.
The two fell into silence for a long time. Xi Mo stared at Xiu Yangui's figure and said, "Thank you for coming to see me and bringing me a lot of things I need. You are very..."
"etc!"
Before he could finish his words, Xiu Yangui interrupted him: "You're not going to say that I'm good, are you?"
Xi Mo nodded honestly, her fair and flawless face full of seriousness. She didn't know why Xiu Yangui didn't let her continue speaking, but she must be grateful.
Xiu Yangui propped himself up helplessly. "'I'm fine' shouldn't be used here. You should say, uh..."
He couldn't think of it, but Xi Mo could, "I'm very touched."
Xiu Yangui was stunned, and a blush appeared on his cheeks again. "That's fine, that's fine."
"It's just a small thing. Classmates help each other."
The "classmate" who refused to accept the nice guy card was both happy and stubborn. Why didn't he realize before that Xi Mo was quite good at talking? Her shiny black eyes stared at you intently, so seriously, which was quite cute.
The rain outside has stopped, but the gloomy weather and dark clouds have not yet dissipated, covering the moon, but it cannot stop everyone from loving the moon.
Xi Mo looked out the window for a while and said, "Let's go."
