Chapter 549 Just look at me
Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia turned their heads together and looked at Liu Wangchun.
Liu Wangchun raised his hands and gave an awkward yet polite fake smile: "Long Liandong said that Bai Qingxia should open the letter and read it when she decides to take a brave step. I didn't understand what she meant, but she said Bai Qingxia would understand."
Liu Wangchun felt puzzled at the time. She had the impression that Bai Qingxia and Long Liandong had almost no communication. How come in the end these two became like close friends, and she, Liu Wangchun, became a clown?
Lu Yuanqiu looked at Bai Qingxia who was sitting in his arms, and Bai Qingxia also looked at him. The only one who was kept in the dark, Liu Wangchun, looked at the two of them and asked curiously, "Which step? What's this guy doing mysteriously?"
Bai Qingxia lowered her head, folded the envelope in half, put it away and carefully put it into the pocket of her shorts.
"No, Xia Xia, do you really believe her? Open it and see now." Liu Wangchun reminded.
Bai Qingxia shook her head: "No need, Chunchun, I'll listen to her."
Lu Yuanqiu took a deep breath, shook his head and sighed. He patted Bai Qingxia's thigh unconsciously, guessing in his heart that Long Liandong seemed to have given up something. This made Lu Yuanqiu curious about what Long Liandong would say to him tonight.
Bai Qingxia squeezed her legs slightly, took the millet porridge from Lu Yuanqiu's hand, put it on the table, then took the initiative to get down from Lu Yuanqiu's legs, stepped on tiptoe, and then supported herself on the bed with both hands, and sat on the edge of the bed.
"Don't you want to feed the baby while holding him?" Liu Wangchun asked.
"No, it's just, it's just because... my hands are weak, so..." Bai Qingxia explained hesitantly.
Lu Yuanqiu pretended to be a bystander and sat nearby, clapping his legs and laughing.
Bai Qingxia closed her mouth in embarrassment. She sat on the edge of the bed with her legs together, picked up the millet porridge and drank it quietly. Seeing this, Liu Wangchun hurriedly turned around and took the lunch placed at the door.
"I was just delivering food in a hurry. I didn't have time to come and see you. This is what she bought for you and you like to eat. She asked me to bring it over on the way."
Lu Yuanqiu poked his head out: "Is there a share for me?"
The hand he stretched out was slapped away by Liu Wangchun. Bai Qingxia laughed out loud as she watched the scene.
…
At seven o'clock in the evening, Lu Yuanqiu arrived at the entrance of the playground at the agreed time.
As soon as the sports meet was over, the playground became deserted. Perhaps because there were classes the next day, even the number of people walking around the campus decreased.
Lu Yuanqiu saw from afar a girl in a black dress with a not-so-big bow tied around her waist standing at the entrance of the playground. It was Long Liandong. She seemed to particularly like wearing black clothes. She was holding a picture album in her hand. Lu Yuanqiu remembered that picture album; he had seen it several times.
"Here I come." Lu Yuanqiu walked in front of Long Liandong.
Long Liandong raised her head slightly and looked over. Lu Yuanqiu didn't expect to see a smile on her face, but he unexpectedly found that Long Liandong smiled at him.
"Let's go in and take a walk," she suggested.
Lu Yuanqiu also responded with a smile. The two of them strolled on the red plastic track, with dim lights overhead. Many of the students who were walking had their eyes on them, but Lu Yuanqiu pretended not to notice. He casually chatted with Long Liandong: "You have a good talent for sports, right?"
Long Liandong responded: "I have been running since I was young to maintain my body shape."
"That must be tiring?" Lu Yuanqiu responded.
Long Liandong suddenly stopped and looked at him with a smile: "You are the second person who said that I would be tired. The first one was my grandfather."
Lu Yuanqiu was stunned, then he laughed in surprise: "The main thing is that you are not that old now. If you pay attention to body management from a young age, it is really too early. I will definitely not let my children bear so many burdens from a young age. It would be better to be an ordinary person, free and easy."
Long Liandong raised her head and looked at the profile of the young man next to her, looking at him deeply. She had indeed never communicated with Lu Yuanqiu much, but every word of Lu Yuanqiu touched her heart.
Maybe this is fate.
Lu Yuanqiu asked curiously, "By the way, what did you write in the letter to Bai Qingxia?"
Long Liandong responded briefly: "I agree with her."
Lu Yuanqiu smiled: "Thank you."
"You're welcome."
"So why are you looking for me today..."
"I like you."
Lu Yuanqiu stopped and looked at Long Liandong. Long Liandong also stopped and met his gaze as usual.
It was the first time that Lu Yuanqiu met such a serious and calm gaze. He nodded slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Long Liandong answered: "You want to reject me, right?"
Lu Yuanqiu nodded again: "Yes, so I can only say sorry."
"But I am very grateful for your love. There are not many girls who like me since I was a child. It is my honor to be liked by such a beautiful star."
Long Liandong didn't care about the answer she already knew. She lowered her head and took out the album in her hand. Seeing this, Lu Yuanqiu said, "Oh, no, since I've refused, you don't have to give me a gift."
Long Liandong looked at him and said, "This is not for you."
Lu Yuanqiu: “…”
Long Liandong opened the album and started from the first page. Lu Yuanqiu walked behind Long Liandong and saw that the first page was a young man wearing a basketball uniform that read "Once Promised to be the Best in the World".
Long Liandong: "I drew this while watching the video."
Lu Yuanqiu sighed and nodded: "Very similar, the painting is really good."
Long Liandong continued to flip through the pages one by one, and Lu Yuanqiu discovered that every one of them was a drawing of him by Long Liandong. He remembered some of the scenes, but had no idea of some of them.
"Thank you, thank you for your hard work." After reading the album, Lu Yuanqiu looked at the other party with some disappointment. He could put himself in Long Liandong's shoes.
"Have you liked me since we were little?"
"It counts, and it doesn't count. Not much has happened between us. Maybe fate has arranged for you to match all the points that can attract me."
Seeing Lu Yuanqiu's regretful expression, Long Liandong smiled and shook his head: "Don't feel sorry, I have also gradually come to believe that if you like someone, you really want the other person to be happy."
Lu Yuanqiu smiled and nodded: "Okay."
Long Liandong turned to the last page of the album again. Lu Yuanqiu saw that the second to last page was a picture of him playing basketball at this spring sports meeting, while the last page was blank.
She turned around, took out a pencil from her bag, and asked Lu Yuanqiu, "Can I draw one last picture for you? I want to keep this album."
"Of course, what can I do for you?"
Long Liandong thought for a moment, then looked at the backboard covered by the light of the street lamp. She said, "Can you stand under the backboard over there?"
Lu Yuanqiu walked over and stood under the backboard. Enshrouded in the dim light was a sunny boy with messy hair and a smile on his face.
Long Liandong looked at it carefully for a few seconds, and suddenly Lu Yuanqiu asked, "Do you need me to pose in any way?"
"No, just look at me."
"OK."
"Lu Yuanqiu, my birthday is December 23!"
The voice behind the album suddenly became choked, perhaps it was an illusion.
The boy under the backboard responded cheerfully: "Remember it!"
