Chapter 32
When Lin Zhen arrived home, she saw Mother Shi about to go out and asked, "Aunt Shi, where are you going?"
When her mother saw Lin Zhen coming back, she quickly told her to take a bath and have breakfast.
"Xiaozhen is back. Breakfast is ready. Change your clothes first, or take a shower."
"I'm going to pick out things for her wedding with a friend today. You can eat lunch out or make it at home."
After my mother finished giving her instructions, she went out.
Lin Zhen looked at the clock on the wall. It was about eight forty.
I had heard Lin's father mention before that one of Shi's mother's good friends was about to get married, and her husband was a man about the same age as her friend.
In the eyes of the world, the word "marriage" seems to be difficult to enter once you are older.
But there are also many people who don’t care about the opinions of others and just live the way that makes them comfortable.
The trajectory of life is not always straight. It is not necessarily a bad thing if it bends occasionally. You may encounter what you want most in life.
——
At noon, Lin Zhen prepared to go out for lunch.
The sun wasn't very bright today, and the clouds were arranged in neat rows. A small black umbrella faced the blue and white sky.
Lin Zhen held an umbrella and walked to a nearby wonton shop and ordered a bowl of wonton noodles.
It was almost two o'clock when Lin Zhen went out.
At this time, there were almost no people in the store.
Lin Zhen saw a boy wearing a white shirt. There were some water stains on his body, his face was covered with sweat, and there were one or two purple bruises on his arms.
At this time, the boy's cell phone seemed to vibrate a few times, and then he picked up the call.
"I'm at the Yunji wonton shop. How about you? Are you lost?"
"That's right, you don't come here often. If your aunt and uncle hadn't gone abroad to travel without you, you wouldn't have been allowed to roam free at grandpa's house."
As the boy spoke, the waiter brought a bowl of wontons.
"Okay, you take your time to figure out how to get here. I want to eat." When the boy saw that the meal he ordered had arrived, he hung up the phone, ignoring the slightly angry tone on the other end of the phone.
Lin Zhen listened to the boy's words, as if they were just friends joking with each other.
He seems to have a good relationship with his friend.
Zou Guangjue noticed that when he was talking on the phone just now, he also noticed that Lin Zhen looked at him, but he didn't pay much attention to it.
There are only two of them in the store at the moment, and the atmosphere is very quiet.
After waiting for a while, the wontons Lin Zhen ordered were ready.
Just when Lin Zhen was halfway through her meal, the door was pushed open and she felt someone behind her walking in breathlessly.
"Zou Guangjue, you didn't even send me the location and asked me to find it myself. You're really something!"
Fu Guannan spent almost half an hour looking for the Yunji Wonton Shop, which turned out to be only a few minutes away from downstairs.
Zou Guangjue looked up and saw Fu Guannan, who was sweating profusely, and a smile instantly appeared on his face.
"Oh! Didn't I tell you to turn left after you go downstairs? You can't blame me if you can't find the way."
Fu Guannan was about to say something when he saw Zou Guangjue's teasing expression, but his eyes fell on the green figure.
When he saw the familiar person again, Fu Guannan was slightly stunned.
Lin Zhen had already spotted Fu Guannan as soon as he walked in front of the boy.
When Fu Guannan noticed him at this time, Lin Zhen nodded to him, her eyebrows curved, and a friendly smile appeared in her eyes.
Zou Guangjue, who was standing by, looked at his cousin and the girl without any communication, with a look of watching a show.
Boys and girls around fifteen or sixteen years old are particularly gossipy about communications with the opposite sex.
"Yeah? You know him?"
Zou Guangjue raised his eyebrows at Fu Guannan and pointed his chin in the direction of Lin Zhen. His tone made it seem as if they had an extremely ambiguous relationship.
Fu Guannan saw that Zou Guangjue mistook him for Lin Zhen and poked his arm with his elbow.
"Classmates." Fu Guannan lowered his voice and explained.
"Oh~"
Zou Guangjue glanced jokingly at Fu Guannan who was staring at him, and then ate a wonton in front of him.
"You didn't buy it for me?" Fu Guannan saw that there was only a bowl of wontons on the table. Thinking that Zou Guangjue didn't order any for him, he opened his eyes wide and questioned.
"I thought you would at least wait until I finished eating, so..."
"Hey, that's why I didn't buy it for you."
Fu Guannan had no choice but to order a bowl of wontons for himself.
When he walked to the ordering counter, Fu Guannan saw Lin Zhen blowing on the wontons on the spoon, and the lenses of her glasses were covered with white mist from the heat.
I don't even know to take off my glasses before eating.
…
When Lin Zhen left, she smiled and waved to Fu Guannan.
As soon as Lin Zhen left, Zou Guangjue started asking.
"Your classmate is quite well-behaved and has quite a certain temperament."
When Zou Guangjue saw Lin Zhen for the first time, he thought she should be a quiet girl.
"Yeah?"
When Fu Guannan heard his words, he looked up at the transparent glass door that Lin Zhen pushed open when she left.
At this moment, the scene on the bus suddenly flashed through his mind, and Lin Zhen's jumping back.
In fact, she is not just quiet.
Everyone has countless personalities, which can be divided into explicit and implicit ones. As for the implicit part, they may not want others to know, but they may only be open to people they are familiar with and trust.
——
Happy holidays always pass quickly.
The school sports meet is coming up soon. This time there are two fun sports: basketball and tug-of-war.
Many of the events were unavailable to women. Only one or two girls chose the sprint and long-distance races, while the others were practically shunted into a corner, uninterested. Some girls, fearing being picked to be "athletes," signed up for tug-of-war.
As one of the few tall students in the class, Shi Jinjun was dragged by the head teacher to participate in basketball games and high jump.
Lin Zhen was forced to participate in the basketball game.
Because many girls in the class were playing tug-of-war, there were still four or five girls who didn't choose any sports. When the head teacher found out, he dragged them to the basketball game.
It is also called: Everyone should contribute to the class.
So, from that day on, in every physical education class and weekend, the girls selected to participate in the basketball game would make an appointment to practice together.
The head teacher was afraid that their class would lose too badly, so he specifically told the physical education teacher to teach the girls in their class more in physical education class.
"Okay, now go watch the boys play basketball. Watch how they dribble and shoot, and how they coordinate with each other. They play quite professionally."
The physical education teacher couldn't bear to watch the girls playing basketball.
He missed most of his shots, couldn't dribble well, and was always running with the ball.
"Teacher, shall we take a break?"
Zhao Yixian supported his waist with his hands, panting while discussing with the physical education teacher.
They had been practicing for quite a while and were now sweating profusely from the sun.
The weather today is very hot.
After practicing basketball for half a class under the scorching sun, Lin Zhen's face was sunburned red. The back of her school uniform was also soaked with sweat and now sticky. She felt a little dizzy.
"Then go rest in the shade over there for a while, and see how the boys in your class are doing."
The physical education teacher pointed to the basketball court at the innermost part, where there were rows of trees providing shade, providing good shade.
There were also several girls sitting there, enjoying the cool air while watching the boys play basketball.
Lin Zhen felt dizzy. She supported her knees with her hands, bent over, and shook her head.
Shi Jinjun saw that Lin Zhen was feeling a little uncomfortable and hurriedly supported her.
"What's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
A concerned and familiar voice buzzed into Lin Zhen's ears, bringing her back to her senses slowly.
"It's okay. I'm fine."
Lin Zhen bent her body for a while and felt a shadow on her body blocking some of the sunlight.
Then, Shi Jinjun slowly took her arm and led her to the shade.
After reaching the shady place, Lin Zhen felt much better.
Looking ahead, Fu Guannan and his friends were still running around in the scorching sun, passing and shooting. Their sweat-soaked clothes and sweat-sticky arms all revealed the boys' youthful spirit.
Lin Zhen stared at Fu Guannan for a long time. She noticed the tense look on his face as he ran, the way he jumped to shoot, and the confident smile on his face when he made the shot.
All of these were reflected in Lin Zhen's eyes, and then uncontrollably, slowly copied into her mind.
The youth's enthusiasm and passion immediately attracted the attention of many people. They were hotter and more blazing than the sun, and more capable of making people feel dizzy.
After the physical education class, Lin Zhen was going to go home with Shi Jinjun, but Shi Jinjun was suddenly called over by Xia Yeheng, so he did not go with Lin Zhen.
Before leaving, Shi Jinjun asked Lin Zhen if she was still feeling uncomfortable.
"I'm really fine now. I just got a bit of heatstroke. I just sat there for a while and I feel much better now."
Lin Zhen was very happy to see that Shi Jinjun cared about her.
Looking at their slowly receding figures, Lin Zhen felt that the two of them seemed to be more and more a perfect match.
Just as Lin Zhen was imagining the beautiful love between the male god and the goddess, she suddenly remembered that she... seemed to have something very important unfinished.
"Deliver the love letter to the male protagonist. This is also your task." The system's very warm reminder sounded in Lin Zhen's ears.
!!!
It was a bolt from the blue. How could she have forgotten about this?!
"Why is this still happening?!"
"If I handed the love letter to Xia Yeheng, I would be... so embarrassed..."
She and Shi Jinjun see each other every day. If she knew about it, it would definitely cause a silent storm.
"Who told you to tell others? Why not keep it anonymous? Then secretly put it in his drawer. You're not the only one who sends him love letters anyway."
“…”
The key point is, what if someone accidentally sees her handing it to Xia Yeheng?
Lin Zhen sighed with a tearful look on her face.
In Fu Guannan's eyes, Lin Zhen's face was red from the sun and she looked uncomfortable, so Fu Guannan couldn't help but frown.
Did she have heat stroke?
Just now, when I was playing basketball, I took advantage of the free time and noticed that she seemed to be supported by someone.
Fu Guannan looked up and squinted his eyes, looking at the sunlight above his head that was partially blocked by the leaves.
The sun is indeed bigger today.
Lin Zhen walked and walked until she arrived at the classroom.
She picked up her schoolbag and was about to walk to the front door when she saw Fu Guannan standing in the corridor.
Lin Zhen thought that he usually came in through the back door, so should she also go out through the back door? She could still run into him and talk to him.
Fu Guannan saw Lin Zhen walking towards the front door with her schoolbag on her back, thought for a moment, and stopped.
Both of them saw the other standing still, and their eyes met at this moment.
A strange atmosphere spread inside and outside the classroom.
Lin Zhen pretended to flip through the book, pretending that she had forgotten to take something.
One of the pens on the table fell while she was flipping through a book. Lin Zhen hurriedly picked it up and put it in her schoolbag.
Fu Guannan felt a little embarrassed, so he turned his head to look at the corner of his clothes behind him, pretending to see something dirty on his clothes, and patted the clothes on his back with his hands.
The two of them did this in perfect harmony, and then moved their feet.
Lin Zhen came to the front door, and Fu Guannan just arrived at the back door.
Separated by a wall, the two of them boldly looked in the direction where the other left because of the wall.
Lin Zhen walked out of the classroom, smiled, and stopped walking down the nearest stairs.
She turned and walked towards the other end of the corridor.
The moment she walked to the back door of the classroom, Lin Zhen was looking forward to it, hoping that they could talk, or that they could make eye contact.
Just as she passed the back door of the classroom, her wish came true.
"If you have heatstroke, drink more water." His voice was a little hoarse.
These words, like the sun during physical education class, left her cheeks red again.
Lin Zhen looked straight at Fu Guannan, with a bright smile, and replied, "Okay."
The hot air was carried away by the wind in the corridor, but the feeling of heat in her heart was disturbing Lin Zhen's thoughts.
At the same time, a gust of wind blew from deep within her heart, which soothed the panic.
