Meng Ruihe still remembers what he heard in class.
He hesitated for a moment, his eyes passed from Qiao Qing and fell on Yan He.
Think for a moment.
Yan He probably also wanted to know the answer.
So, he organized his words, raised a smile on his lips, and spoke as if he mentioned this topic unintentionally.
"Qiao Qiao, aren't you going to the autumn outing tomorrow?"
But his eyes were always paying attention to Qiao Qing's reaction.
Yan He was also a little surprised. He turned his head and looked over, asking in confusion: "Why don't you go? It's a rare opportunity for us to go out together. If you miss this opportunity, you may not have it next time."
There was a gleam in Qiao Qing's eyes, and she seemed very surprised by Meng Ruihe's question. Her round almond eyes widened, and the surprise on her fair face could not be concealed.
But there was a hint of sadness between her delicate eyebrows, which made people want to wipe it away.
He forced a smile and said, "It's okay, I just don't like hanging out with too many people."
She gripped the cuffs tightly with nervous fingers.
"Besides, my foot is injured now, so I can't go tomorrow."
As if she had found a suitable reason, she suddenly became justified.
Meng Ruihe couldn't help wanting to laugh. He clenched his fist to his lips, coughed lightly and said, "Didn't you hear what the doctor said?"
Qiao Qing turned with a slightly puzzled look, his eyes as clear as mountain spring water.
"What did the doctor say?"
Meng Ruihe hasn't spoken yet.
Yan He added, "The doctor said that you are not seriously injured and will be able to recover by tomorrow."
Qiao Qing was stunned for a moment. She couldn't believe it. "It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Although I didn't hurt my tendons or bones, I really felt a lot of pain before. How could it heal so quickly?"
Meng Ruihe smiled and said, "You have to ask the doctor about this."
Yan He didn't say anything, obviously agreeing with this answer.
Mother Qiao came over with a few clean cups. When she came over, she vaguely heard some of the conversation and felt a little curious.
"You were just talking about an autumn outing. What autumn outing?"
He put the cup on the table, poured hot water into it and handed it to Meng Ruihe and Yan He.
Qiao Qing stood up suddenly, walked to Qiao's mother, took her arm, looked at her with a smile, and said softly and coquettishly: "Mom, please don't interfere with our conversation."
Meng Ruihe looked at Yan He, and Yan He also looked at him, with the same thoughts in his eyes.
Qiao Qing's actions were very quick. If it were normal, no one would believe it. It was obvious that he did not want Qiao's mother to know about the school's autumn outing.
Qiao's mother has always been indulgent towards Qiao Qing. "I don't want to get involved in your young people's conversations, and I can't get involved."
She wiped her hands and gently touched Qiao Qing's head, "But if the school organizes an autumn outing, we have to go."
Qiao Qing is her daughter, and as a mother, she knows exactly what is in her daughter's mind.
At this age, I am sensible enough and know how to understand the difficulties at home, so I have always been frugal in spending money and have never caused my parents any worries.
Who wouldn't feel sorry for such a sensible child?
The autumn outing is an activity organized by the school. If I don’t participate, wouldn’t that be unsociable?
The family is not so poor that they cannot even come up with this little money.
Qiao Qing knew that her mother knew what she was thinking. She frowned and said, "Mom, I don't really want to go. In fact, I want to use this time to read. You know, studying is very intense right now."
Qiao's mother said sternly, "How can you study every day? You will definitely fail if you study hard. You should pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Your parents wanted to tell you this before."
She patted Qiao Qing's hand and said, "This is a good opportunity for you to make more friends."
Speaking of friends, Qiao's mother focused her eyes on the two handsome boys in front of her and smiled gently, "You are the first friends Qiao Qiao brought to the house. This child doesn't know how to make friends. Fortunately, you are willing to play with her."
An aristocratic private school, as the name suggests, the students here are either rich or noble. Considering their family conditions, it must be extremely difficult to make friends here.
Meng Ruihe and Yan He were both a little surprised.
Meng Ruihe put on a gentle smile, raised his lips and said: "Qiao Qiao is a very good friend. I think she is good in every aspect. It's very comfortable to get along with her."
As he spoke, his dark eyes looked at Qiao Qing with a smile, and the tiny glimmer in his eyes was like the sunshine in early March, warm but not dazzling.
Qiao Qing also glanced at Meng Ruihe. She felt warm in her heart and smiled faintly at Meng Ruihe, like a flower bud blooming after the rain, pure and beautiful.
"Auntie, Qiao Qing is really outstanding. It is a loss for those people not to be friends with Qiao Qing."
Yan He also spoke. He was actually not very good at expressing himself, especially when Meng Ruihe was present, he seemed even more introverted.
In fact, he didn't want to be friends with Qiao Qing, so naturally he wouldn't say anything like it was fun to be friends with Qiao Qing.
Qiao Qing also smiled at Yan He, and her smile was as sincere as before.
Whether this was true or false, she was happy to hear it.
Mother Qiao was amused by their words, "They are both good children."
Seeing the two of them protecting Qiao Qing so much, Qiao's mother felt relieved.
As for whether they doubted whether the two liked Qiao Qing, of course they did have doubts.
But she is not so unenlightened. It is obvious that there is no future, but she will not interfere.
Qiao Qiao is a person with strong opinions.
As parents, we can only guide her and cannot make decisions for her life.
Meng Ruihe and Yan He listened to the conversation between Qiao Qing and Qiao's mother for a long time and could almost guess the reason why Qiao Qing didn't go.
They looked around the surroundings. The furniture was old and felt quite dated.
It's just decorated very warmly and feels like home.
There were quite a few photos hanging on the wall, including family photos and a photo of a little girl, probably Qiao Qing when she was a child.
She has big round eyes, chubby cheeks, pouting pink lips, and is wearing a little skirt. She was so cute when she was a child. No wonder she is so beautiful when she grows up.
In addition to photos, there are many award certificates on the wall. Half of the wall is covered with award certificates. It seems that Qiao Qing has been very successful since he was a child. After a few words, Qiao's mother went to cook.
"This autumn outing of the school is free."
Meng Ruihe looked at Qiao Qing seriously. He was afraid that what he said would hurt Qiao Qing's self-esteem.
But the purpose of this autumn outing was originally for Qiao Qing. Previously on the playground, Qiao Qing said that he had not had time to appreciate the beauty of nature for a long time.
Qiao Qing also said that she really likes the feeling of being accompanied by friends.
He thought about it for a long time and decided to plan this.
Of course, this fee is naturally taken into consideration that some students are in financial difficulty and do not want to spend this money, so it is free.
Yan He didn't have such delicate thoughts. He looked at Qiao Qing with his dark eyes and said calmly.
"Didn't the teacher say it's free? Not every class has an autumn outing. Our class is just the first example. If it goes well, the school will consider making the autumn outing an activity for students to interact outdoors."
This was of course not something he knew, but ever since Cheng Ang found out about this gossip, he had been whispering it in his ears non-stop, and it was hard for him not to remember it.
After hearing what the two said, Qiao Qing opened her pink little mouth and couldn't close it at all. "So many people are going on the autumn outing for free. Is the school so generous?"
Yan He was not very clear either, "It seems to cost a lot."
He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, "Maybe it's because this is the first practice, so our class got the advantage."
Although he felt that this autumn outing was a bit strange, he didn't say it out loud.
He just glanced at Meng Ruihe with a slightly suspicious look.
However, Meng Ruihe's handsome face had a normal smile and there was no special expression on it, so he couldn't figure out whether this matter had anything to do with Meng Ruihe.
Then I thought about it and realized I was overthinking it.
It’s just an autumn outing, is it necessary for Meng Ruihe to make such a fuss?
Meng Ruihe's expression was very serious, and he agreed: "Yeah, I also think it should be the reason Yan He said."
He put his hands together on his knees, and the smile on his lips was kind and gentle.
This is of course not the truth of the matter. If he did this for no reason, Meng's father would never agree to it.
He just took out his own private money.
With his usual pocket money and the New Year's money every year, he has accumulated a considerable amount of expenses.
Qiao Qing nodded and said, "Is that so."
As she thought about it, she started to smile, and her smile was as bright and beautiful as the wild flowers blooming all over the mountains and fields.
“I can’t believe it.”
The school had organized autumn outings before, but they all required payment. She had never told Qiao's mother about these things.
In fact, her previous plan was not to go on the autumn outing. Under normal circumstances, Meng Ruihe should have taken the initiative to come to her, and then there would be two opportunities for them to be alone together.
Even if he didn't come to see her, she had an excuse for him to come.
However, the sudden visit of these two people disrupted Qiao Qing's original plan.
The three of them chatted for a while, and Qiao Qing felt that the relationship between Yan He and Meng Ruihe seemed to have eased a little.
However, the voice of Qiao's mother asking them to eat interrupted her thoughts, and she didn't think about it anymore.
After the meal, Qiao Qing saw the two of them out the door because he had a foot injury, and then he did not continue to see them off.
Meng Ruihe and Yan He went together.
You really can't think about how interesting it would be for two people who dislike each other to walk on the same road. It might even be a little awkward.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qing actually smiled in a somewhat unkind way.
This was naturally Qiao Qing's overthinking.
Meng Ruihe and Yan He got into their own cars almost as soon as they came downstairs. The scene that Qiao Qing imagined did not occur at all.
The night passed quickly.
The students remembered clearly the gathering time at nine o'clock on Saturday. It was such a fun group activity, and it was free. Even students like Qiao Qing who wanted to cherish their time to study did not miss it.
Qiao Qing arrived neither too early nor too late.
When she got on the bus and looked for a seat, most people on the bus looked at her.
To explain why,
Naturally, there are empty seats next to Meng Ruihe and Yan He.
As soon as they saw Qiao Qing, their eyes suddenly lit up, full of anticipation.
One is a new love and the other is an old love.
What will Qiao Qing choose?
The students' eyes were full of gossip, and they wanted to poke two holes in Qiao Qing before they would stop.
Can Qiao Qing say that she is under a lot of pressure?
Standing at the car door, I couldn't go forward or backward.
Naturally, she wanted to sit next to Meng Ruihe because he was her target and she had a good impression of him. However, Yan He had always been very good to the original owner, and it would be very hurtful to sit next to him in public.
"The car is about to leave, classmate, have you not found a seat yet?"
The driver closed the car door and turned to look at Qiao Qing who was still standing, somewhat puzzled.
Qiao Qing smiled awkwardly, "I found it, I'll be there now."
Yuan Tingting looked at Qiao Qing's embarrassed look from behind and laughed for a long time. She stood up and waved to Qiao Qing.
"Jojo, here."
She arrived early and helped Qiao Qing save a seat.
Qiao Qing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Why did she feel so awkward as if she was in a Shura field? She had never felt this awkward before.
Maybe it’s because they are young and boys are more thin-skinned, so they really don’t want to hurt anyone.
Meng Ruihe couldn't help but smile and joked, "The expression is really obvious."
He turned to look at Yan He, "What do you think?"
Yan He raised his eyebrows, "It is indeed quite obvious, what's wrong?"
Meng Ruihe was not playing guessing games with Yan He.
"I feel like Qiao Qing seems to be under a lot of pressure."
He looked straight ahead, without looking in Qiao Qing's direction, but he could tell that her expression at the moment should be happy, not distressed like just now.
Yan He didn't say anything about this.
After a dozen seconds of silence, he looked at Meng Ruihe solemnly and asked with a smile: "So what do you want to do?"
Although the students around were a little distance away from the two people, they all pricked up their ears to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Everyone never tires of gossip.
Meng Ruihe glanced at the students who seemed to be playing with their phones but were actually eavesdropping on their conversation.
His smile brightened, "Secret."
Yan He sneered, and was particularly disdainful of Meng Ruihe's behavior of leaving things unsaid.
"You can say it if you want."
He doesn't want to know either.
Of course he understood Qiao Qing's character.
Even though he had spent time resolving those issues and explained them clearly to Qiao Qing in person, the other party's attitude towards him was only slightly better.
It has not returned to the intimacy it once was.
He didn't understand, and was unwilling to believe that Qiao Qing had indeed fallen in love with someone else, and that person was his mortal enemy - Meng Ruihe.
It's just that based on their recent contacts, Qiao Qing does feel different towards Meng Ruihe.
Although I can't really tell what the difference is.
After the car started, Cheng Ang and He Qiyi kept gossiping with each other.
He Qiyi looked at Hao Yanhe and Meng Ruihe blatantly, and asked Cheng Ang in a low voice, "Do you think they are whispering about something?"
Cheng Ang thought it was similar, and nodded with a serious expression, "It seems so."
He Qiyi exclaimed, "We are not with them, so we don't know what they said, right?"
That would be a missed opportunity to gossip about each other.
Cheng Ang patted his head and said, "Yes, we should sit next to them."
God knows how they feel about the emotional entanglement between Meng Ruihe, Yan He and Qiao Qing. It feels like watching a TV series.
"Sit next to them."
He Qiyi fell into deep thought, and suddenly his eyes seemed to light up, "Yes, aren't the seats next to them still empty? We can sit next to them."
He stroked his chin like a detective, "This way we can get the latest gossip."
Cheng Ang nodded seriously.
"right."
The two people who reached an agreement rushed to their sides like two mice before Yan He and Meng Ruihe could react.
The smile on my face is for your own good.
Without waiting for Meng Ruihe and Yan He to ask.
He Qiyi smiled and said first: "I'm afraid you'll be bored. If I sit next to you, you'll have someone to chat with."
Cheng Ang quickly replied, "Yes, if you feel sleepy later, you can lean on me and take a nap."
"If you're thirsty, I have some water here."
"If you're hungry, I have some bread."
The two of them sang in unison and spoke very fluently.
Meng Ruihe yawned a little bored, took out earplugs from his schoolbag, and a smile appeared on his thin lips.
I was extremely glad that I was prepared.
I found a comfortable position and closed my eyes to rest.
Yan He was not prepared at all. The smile on his angular face remained unchanged, but he looked deeply at Cheng Ang.
"Are you sure you want to talk again?"
Cheng Ang, obviously sensing the danger, shut his mouth in time.
Seeing that Yan He seemed to have recovered a little, he smiled and said, "Don't talk, don't talk, I've finished."
He Qiyi glanced at Yan He, then glanced at Meng Ruihe beside him.
He felt deeply moved that these two people were so lucky to have such good friends like him and Cheng Ang.
Afterwards, he also followed Meng Ruihe's example and found a comfortable position to rest.
Qiao Qing looked at the buildings flashing by outside the window.
Also closed his eyes.
The journey was quite long, and by the time the driver said we had arrived, it was more than two hours later.
Most of the students fell asleep, and when they woke up they felt sore necks and dizzy heads, and it took them a while to recover.
Fortunately, I don’t suffer from motion sickness, otherwise the two-hour drive would have been as painful as torture.
Then why come on this autumn outing? Isn't this just asking for trouble?
After the driver opened the car door.
The students rushed out, looked at the environment in front of them, and started chattering non-stop.
But there were people who made arrangements here, so the chaos was only for a short while, and then everything became very orderly.
When coming here for an autumn outing, we naturally have to ensure the personal safety of the students.
More than twenty people were divided into teams, with six people in each team.
Yan He, Cheng Ang, Meng Ruihe, He Qiyi, Qiao Qing and Yuan Tingting are in a group of six.
The others were divided randomly.
The environment here is really beautiful.
There is a large lush lawn, as well as wooden tables and wooden benches for people to rest.
In front of the lawn is a bell tower. The entire bell tower is made of wood and has two floors. The overall feeling is very artistic. Qiao Qing found it very novel.
There is a small river next to the bell tower, with a wooden bridge over it and gurgling water under the bridge.
Dark green lotus leaves are floating on the water, and lotus flowers are emerging from the water, with pink and white flowers in full bloom, and pink buds that are not in full bloom, half-open and half-closed.
A breeze blew, and the flowers danced like butterflies.
There are unknown flowers planted on both sides of the stream, red, purple, white and yellow, scattered in the grass on both sides like stars blinking.
Qiao Qing held Yuan Tingting's hand and couldn't help but sigh, "It's so beautiful, this place is so beautiful, so artistic."
Yuan Tingting nodded vigorously, "I think so too. I have never been to a place like this before."
Her eyes were suddenly attracted by something. "G, Qiao Qiao, look at that large patch of yellow over there on the bridge. Are they sunflowers?"
Qiao Qing's gaze also fell over there. Large patches of sunflowers were growing towards the sun, swaying their branches in the wind. It was really beautiful to see from here.
"It looks like they really are sunflowers. I've never seen such a large field of sunflowers."
Some classmates around him had already picked up their phones to take pictures, but Qiao Qing didn't have a phone, so he couldn't take pictures even if he wanted to.
As if knowing what Qiao Qing was thinking, Meng Ruihe walked over immediately.
"The scenery here is very nice. We can take pictures as a souvenir."
He pulled out a camera from his bag, "I brought this to ensure clear pictures."
Yan He looked at Meng Ruihe as if he was Doraemon, who could give him whatever he wanted. For the first time, he reflected on whether he thought too little.
Qiao Qing was a little surprised, and her delicate eyebrows were full of eagerness, "Then let's go take pictures."
It seems like a waste of such a beautiful view not to take pictures.
"Uh-huh."
Yuan Tingting couldn't wait to agree. She was also very happy. Although she had a mobile phone, the pixel of the phone was not high.
Now it’s even better with a camera.
In fact, the surrounding area is not only beautiful, but also has many entertainment facilities. Meng Ruihe smiled but didn't say anything.
It’s better to wait for this to happen on their own, maybe they will be happier.
Cheng Ang and He Qiyi also followed the pace of the few people.
Girls all love taking photos.
“I’m going to shoot here.”
Standing in a field of sunflowers, Qiao Qing closed her eyes, slowly opened her hands, and turned her delicate face towards the sun. Her originally fair cheeks seemed to emit a lustrous luster under the sunlight.
The black and smooth hair swayed in the breeze, revealing a slender and white neck with a delicate collarbone.
At this moment, everyone was indeed amazed, even Yuan Tingting, who was also a girl, was no exception.
They only felt that the fields of sunflowers, the beautiful scenery, and the slightly warm sunshine all served as a foil to that person.
Yan He narrowed his eyes slightly and coughed lightly to hide his abnormality.
Meng Ruihe was stunned for a moment, then he took the opportunity to capture the most beautiful angle of Qiao Qing.
Yuan Tingting smiled and praised: "Qiao Qiao is really beautiful."
Even He Qiyi and Cheng Ang, who had seen the beauty before, agreed very much at this moment.
They looked at each other and said, "It's pretty nice."
Then he smiled meaningfully again.
No wonder these two like her.
I just don’t know who will get the flower in the end.
