There is a row of tall trees planted around the playground, which block some of the heat during the day, purify the air, and bring a touch of shade to the students taking classes on the playground.
At night, it becomes a bit eerie. The croaking of toads can be heard from the creek not far away, and the rustling of leaves in the wind.
Wei Lai stared at the girl in front of him and finally said those words.
"sorry!"
"Is that all?"
"I know that as my best friend, I should trust you. Even if you tease me every day, it's probably just a joke. There's no ill intention, or maybe it's just a sign of affection between good friends."
Wei Lai said all these words in one breath with his eyes almost closed. When he opened his eyes again, he found Qingting with her back to him, looking a little strange.
There was a full moon hanging in the sky, and the moonlight was shining on the flagpole next to the rostrum. The moonlight reflected by the brand new metal flagpole shone brightly with the stars in the sky.
There was no one else around, and even the sounds around suddenly became faint and inaudible.
This is probably the first time he said this to me.
The cool breeze that brushed across her face made Qingting realize how hot her face was.
"Never mind. I forgive you."
She turned around and stuffed the insect repellent into Wei Lai's hand, then ran down the stairs without looking back.
Looking at Qingting running away, Wei Lai felt a little confused.
That's it? No more teasing him?
I thought I would be severely teased.
Unable to figure out what Qingting was thinking, Wei Lai held the insect repellent in his hand, glanced at the edge of the podium, and finally walked down the stairs like Qingting.
Qingting jogged all the way to the door of the girls' dormitory, took a breath, touched her face, and only felt relieved when she found that it was not so hot anymore.
When I walked into the dormitory building, the dormitory manager in the duty room was watching a movie on her bar phone. It seemed that she had no intention of moving until the dormitory closed.
Qingting didn't disturb her and walked towards her dormitory.
"I'm back."
"So, how did your neighbor react? Did he confess his feelings to you?"
As soon as Qingting pushed the door open and entered the dormitory, before she could close the door completely, Tong Duoduo couldn't wait to come over and asked curiously.
In the dormitory, Bao Wen and Ba Xiaowei were also very curious, but not as direct as Tong Duoduo. They lowered their heads and busy themselves with their own things, while the other party pricked up their ears to eavesdrop.
"Duoduo, didn't I tell you a long time ago that when he asked me out, he said he had something to do, not necessarily a confession of love."
Qingting held Tong Duoduo's shoulders and pushed her aside, then walked to the wardrobe opposite the bed in the dormitory, ready to get a washbasin and towel to wash and go to bed.
She had already taken a shower before dinner and didn't sweat much at night, so Qingting planned to just wipe off the insect repellent on her body.
But Tong Duoduo, who was so curious, followed Qingting all the way to the bathroom door and continued to ask:
"If it's not a confession, why would he ask you to meet him alone in the middle of the night?"
[He must have confessed his feelings. The truth can't be hidden from me, Detective Duo.]
Tong Duoduo's rich inner drama made Qingting feel amused and helpless at the same time. Rubbing the towel under the faucet, she said calmly, "It was the entrance exam before school started. He left me alone and felt sorry for me, so he apologized to me."
"You're leaving after the exam. Why are you apologizing? Did you agree to leave together?"
"Because I finished the exam first and waited for him outside the exam room, he came out, said hello, and left." Qingting wiped her face and continued, "I waited for him, but he didn't wait for me. Shouldn't I apologize?"
"Indeed, that's really too much." Tong Duoduo immediately stood on Qingting's side when she heard such a detail.
[But if this isn't love, then it's really hard to believe. She really does like him.]
In the face of Tong Duoduo's inner thoughts, Qingting did not speak to go into the topic further. After wiping her face, she washed the towel and walked to the balcony with the basin and towel.
Outside the balcony of the girls' dormitory is the school's small river. At night, the river reflects the full moon. There are rows of shrubs beside the river bank, swaying in the night breeze, which is very beautiful.
Thinking of what Wei Lai said to her on the playground, Qingting leaned on the balcony, looked up at the full moon hanging in the night sky, and her expression gradually became a little blurred.
I really want to hear him say more of that, but I'm also a little afraid that he'll say it.
"Xiaoting, can you lend me the insect repellent you bought?" The lively Tong Duoduo attracted the most mosquitoes in the dormitory. As soon as she sat down, mosquitoes immediately set their sights on her bare feet.
"No more. I gave it away."
"How could this happen~" Tong Duoduo couldn't help but wail.
[I absolutely love him. There's no way I'm wrong. I guarantee this on my reputation as Detective Duo.]
[I like him so much, he's already like that, and I still give him things. 】
[Damn it, how long are you going to keep playing dumb? You never admit it directly.]
When she returned to the dormitory from the balcony, the voices of the three girls echoed in Qingting's mind, but she just smiled slightly, turned around and climbed onto her lower bunk bed, and took out a bottle of mosquito repellent cologne.
"Actually, using toilet water will have the same effect. Would you like to borrow it?"
"Okay, I'll make do with it for now. Unfortunately, toilet water doesn't last as long as insect repellent."
Tong Duoduo muttered as she reached out to take Qingting's toilet water. Halfway through spraying it, she noticed another mosquito running into the dormitory from the balcony, so she quickly went to close the balcony door.
…
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning fell on the river, and the breeze blew, causing the ripples to sparkle.
