Chapter 193 High School If Line: I hope you... can always be safe and sound
Shen Xichuan sat casually on the chair, his eyes fixed on the direction of the door, and the fingers of his right hand kept turning the pen nonchalantly.
Xu Jialan returned from the office just as class was about to start.
Shen Xichuan turned slightly to the side and looked at her face.
Xu Jialan had just taken out the book for the next class when he saw Shen Xichuan’s gaze from the corner of his eye.
She turned her head and met his eyes, stunned for a moment, "What's wrong?"
The corners of Shen Xichuan's mouth were slightly raised, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"The homeroom teacher was looking for you just now?"
Xu Jialan nodded.
"What do I want to see you for?" he asked again.
Xu Jialan did not hide it, "He asked me if I wanted accommodation."
When school started, she deliberately concealed the situation, and her homeroom teacher didn't know about her family situation.
Now that I know, I'm worried about her being alone.
Hearing this, Shen Xichuan was silent for a few seconds.
He could understand why the head teacher made such a suggestion.
"What about you? Have you decided? Do you want to stay overnight?"
When asking this question, Shen Xichuan was thinking in his heart, if he went to the class teacher to apply for accommodation at this time, would it be possible?
Xu Jialan nodded and said, "It's decided. I won't stay overnight."
Shen Xichuan also nodded, “Actually, the accommodation is pretty good, you can…”
He suddenly stopped and looked at her, "Did you just say... no accommodation?"
Xu Jialan blinked and said, "Yeah."
"Why?" he asked subconsciously.
Xu Jialan retracted his gaze, lowered his eyes, and casually opened the book. "No reason, I just don't want to live here."
Shen Xichuan paused, “Really?”
"Yes." She answered according to his words.
Shen Xichuan sat up straight and casually took out a book, “I thought you were reluctant to spend every day with me.”
Xu Jialan: "..."
She almost choked on her own saliva.
That's true, but no one would say it like that.
She pursed her lips and said, "I just think the accommodation is not very convenient."
Answered, but not completely answered.
A smile flashed in Shen Xichuan’s eyes.
His eyes fell on the bottle of Coke on the table, "Did you give me the Coke?"
Xu Jialan looked over and nodded, "You didn't drink?"
Hearing this, Shen Xichuan paused for a few seconds and said, “I’m not too thirsty now, I’ll drink later.”
Xu Jialan said "oh" without any doubt.
The class bell just rang.
The two of them didn't speak again.
…
The next morning.
Xu Jialan packed his schoolbag and looked at the dining table.
On the table stood an exquisitely packaged apple.
That was last night. She went to a nearby supermarket and spent a long time picking apples.
Before leaving, she carefully put the apple into her schoolbag.
Downstairs, Shen Xichuan heard footsteps and looked over.
Maybe because she felt guilty, but when Xu Jialan looked at her, she subconsciously avoided his gaze.
Shen Xichuan also had something hidden in his heart, so he didn’t discover it.
After a day of classes, I was exhausted.
The evening study classroom is very quiet.
Xu Jialan held the pen and looked down at the test paper on the table. It was obviously a very familiar question, but he couldn't think of how to solve it.
She pursed her lips and looked around.
There were red apples on many people’s seats and in the center of their tables.
She tilted her eyes slightly and glanced at the boy next to her.
Shen Xichuan has always been very fast at doing homework.
She knew that he had finished his homework long ago, but she didn't know what he was writing now.
The boy looked focused and it was obvious that he was writing very seriously.
The ground next to his seat was piled with many beautifully packaged apples.
They were all given to him by girls from other classes who secretly placed them on his seat.
As a result, the boy didn't even look at it and just had someone put it away and piled it on the ground.
He also said that after school, anyone who wanted apples could go to him and get them.
However, he didn't tell her to get it.
Of course, she wouldn't take it.
It’s just… he already has so many apples, and he doesn’t want them, so should she still give them to him?
Xu Jialan didn't dare to look at it any longer. He just took a glance and then looked away.
School will be over in a dozen minutes.
Apple...I'd better give it to him after school.
Christmas Eve should be peaceful.
This is a beautiful meaning.
No matter what, she hopes he can be safe.
......
The bell rang.
A group of boys came over and were picking apples.
Shen Xichuan laughed and scolded them a few times, and told them to go to the podium to choose.
The boys naturally had no objections.
A group of people worked together to carry a large bag of apples to the podium.
Shen Xichuan put on his backpack and leaned back in his seat, his eyes falling on Xu Jialan who was slowly packing his things.
There was no sign of impatience at all.
After Xu Jialan put away his things, he put on his schoolbag and said, "I'm ready."
Shen Xichuan nodded.
The two left the classroom one after the other.
Along the way, the two were unusually silent.
Xu Jialan tightly grasped the strap of his schoolbag, looking conflicted, not knowing what he was thinking.
I entered the residential complex and went downstairs to the building.
The two of them stopped at the same time.
Xu Jialan took a deep breath and was about to speak.
Shen Xichuan suddenly said, “Xu Jialan.”
The girl was stunned. "What?"
Shen Xichuan opened his backpack and took out a square box with exquisite packaging.
When Xu Jialan saw what was in his hand, he was stunned.
"Merry Chrismas!"
Shen Xichuan handed over the box in his hand.
"For me?"
A look of obvious surprise flashed across Xu Jialan's face.
Seeing her expression, Shen Xichuan laughed angrily, “What else? Who else can I give it to?”
Xu Jialan still found it a little unbelievable, "I just... didn't expect it."
Shen Xichuan sighed helplessly and stuffed the box into her hands without saying anything.
"Go back and look at it later."
The box seems to have some weight.
I can't guess what it will be.
Xu Jialan pursed his lips, unzipped the chain of his schoolbag, and took out an apple that he had been hesitating about giving away all day.
She handed it over, "Here you go."
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes slightly, “For me?”
Xu Jialan: "..."
She still nodded seriously, "Yes, peace apple."
"I hope you... can always be safe and sound."
Shen Xichuan was visibly happy and took the apple.
He looked left and right at the Apple box with a look of surprise.
It's like looking at something new.
Xu Jialan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you receive a lot of apples?"
Why does he look like he's receiving an apple for the first time?
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes and glanced at her, “What are you talking about?”
"Didn't you see everything? I didn't take any of them." He raised the apple in his hand, "This is the first apple I received today."
Xu Jialan's eyes slowly softened, "As long as you like it."
"Of course I do."
Shen Xichuan seemed to have obtained some treasure, and was afraid that if he looked at it for a second longer, he would accidentally break the apple.
He also carefully put the apple into his backpack.
It was clearly just an ordinary apple that was everywhere in the supermarket.
Looking at his actions, Xu Jialan curled up the corners of his mouth into a slight smile.
