Chapter 25 A new starting point!
There is a small shade of trees behind their dormitory building, and not many people pass by on weekdays.
The two of them stood under the shade of the tree, not too far away from each other.
Xue Yingcheng, who had just confessed his feelings, was almost completely stunned: "If you want to reject me, you must have a reason to reject me."
Why? Why did Shu Ming reject it so quickly?
Xue Yingcheng thought of many possibilities and guessed what kind of response Shu Ming might give him.
He confessed to Shu Ming so suddenly.
Shu Ming might panic, hesitate, and waver... He even thought about whether Shu Ming might be pure and honest!
But I never thought it would be like this now——
It is said that people with thin lips are naturally heartless, but Xue Yingcheng never believed it before.
But at this moment, Shu Ming was standing opposite him, and the only slightly plump bead on his lip was squeezed between the opening and closing of his lips, leaving only a smooth and thin lip curve.
His expression was the same as usual, and those puppy eyes were still looking at him as clearly as before, which made Xue Yingcheng always mistakenly believe that Shu Ming was not completely without feelings for him!
But Shu Ming rejected his words without any hesitation.
"no."
He was stunned for a long time before he managed to squeeze out two broken words from his dry throat:
"What?"
Shu Ming looked over strangely.
I wondered if he wasn't speaking clearly enough, but I remained patient and repeated word for word: "No, I won't agree to that."
Xue Yingcheng was struck by lightning.
"What's the reason?"
The Shu Ming in front of him was almost the same as when Xue Yingcheng first met him.
At that time, Shu Ming was also dragging his luggage, standing at the freshman orientation area, looking over with a smile and waving at him.
The whole person is so tender that he seems to glow in the sun.
Then, Xue Yingcheng looked Shu Ming up and down, then snorted and ignored him.
Shu Ming hesitated: "You really want to listen..."
"Because I made fun of you at the beginning of the school year, right?"
Xue Yingcheng seemed to have found the reason why Shu Ming refused, and interrupted him urgently.
...A reason?
Shu Ming felt helpless, he hadn't even finished speaking!
“Yes, and no.”
Shu Ming was used to looking for curbstones. After standing on them, he was just the same height as Xue Yingcheng.
In this way, he could look Xue Yingcheng straight in the eye and reply to him seriously:
"Now, I don't really mind what happened in my freshman year."
Even though Xue Yingcheng had laughed at him for being a "country bumpkin" and sometimes ignored him... but after half a semester, for some reason, Xue Yingcheng finally started to like him.
After that, Xue Yingcheng helped him a lot and also gave him many things in a strange way.
He also had to admit that Xue Yingcheng was not a bad person.
So Shu Ming thought to himself that, probably, perhaps, and possibly, he and Xue Yingcheng could barely be considered friends.
But that's where it ends.
"I can apologize, and I can make it up to you later..." Xue Yingcheng had never been so helpless before.
"No, we can be friends because it is me standing here today."
"Have you ever thought about what if it wasn't me?"
"If the person standing here is someone who is already nervous about coming to a big city, someone who is already insecure about their background.
Then, on the first day of school, my roommates teased me about being worldly-wise, having a rustic accent, and being a country bumpkin.
"Have you ever thought about the consequences of saying this?"
The gazes and judgments of peers are a fatal blow to anyone with self-respect.
The only reason they were both standing here intact was because Xue Yingcheng met Shu Ming.
But then again, who says he has never felt inferior?
But fortunately, he is Shu Ming.
Shu Ming smiled slightly.
This time, he did not wait patiently for Xue Yingcheng's reply, but turned around and left first.
Only Xue Yingcheng was left standing there, looking at Shu Ming's back.
He hesitated to speak, and realized with a sense of loss that—
It seemed like he had done something really wrong.
Maybe... maybe he and Shu Ming were really drifting further and further apart.
**
As for how Xue Yingcheng tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night after being rejected.
Shu Ming didn't know.
Of course, he didn't care that much.
Just refuse. After a clear rejection, everyone can better find new directions and new goals.
It’s better than mixing them together in a unclear way!
Then whether Xue Yingcheng can be cured... Hehe, that is not something Xiaogou can consider.
However, Shu Ming was still shocked by his roommate's confession!
Don’t be fooled by the fact that he acted so calm when he rejected Xue Yingcheng... In fact, Shu Ming’s phone is now filled with various search terms.
What about "boys and boys can also fall in love?"
"What should I do if a boy confesses to me?"
"How can you tell if someone is gay?"
...and so on.
But Shu Ming soon figured it out.
Because during his search, he saw a piece of news:
"A man in country Z married a rice cooker and claimed that the rice cooker was his true love."
Well, compared to rice cookers, boys falling in love with each other doesn’t seem to be a big deal.
At least...at least it's still within the scope of human beings.
"What are you looking at?"
Shu Ming was so frightened that he almost dropped his phone and frantically turned off the screen.
I looked up and saw it was my eldest brother.
Zhuang Zheng frowned, holding a thin coat, standing beside Shu Ming's seat, and closed the door next to him.
"Are you cold? Put on your coat, don't catch a cold."
The air conditioning on the plane was turned on very low. Zhuang Zheng closed the air outlet, but still felt a little cold.
He was worried that Shu Ming would catch a cold, so he quickly rummaged through his luggage and took out his coat.
As for the airplane blanket...Zhuang Zheng always felt it was not clean.
Oh, Shu Ming put on his coat obediently, and then answered his brother's first question honestly: "I just saw the news, and it said someone married a rice cooker."
Zhuang Zheng glanced at him and always felt that his brother was not telling the truth.
But forget it, the child is grown up now and it’s time for him to have his own secrets.
The eldest brother was melancholy for two seconds, then returned to his seat at the reminder of the flight attendant.
Yes, they don't sit together.
Sitting in front of Shu Ming was Cui Mingzhe, a rich second-generation man who had booked the entire first-class cabin with a wave of his hand.
Sitting at the other end of the aisle was Liang Ruwen, who was resting with his eyes closed.
Sitting behind Shu Ming is the eldest brother Zhuang Zheng.
It's time to take off.
The plane slowly accelerated on the runway, and with a slight feeling of weightlessness, it officially took off!
Shu Ming leaned on the porthole, watching the capital city, which seemed very large at first, gradually shrink in his field of vision until it was as small as a miniature model in a toy store.
Then it was covered by clouds and could no longer be seen.
Instead of feeling disappointed as expected, Shu Ming only felt excited.
Grasslands, deserts—here he comes!
**
Come...can't come at all.
The late emperor hadn’t even started his business halfway when…his head ached.
It was probably his first time on a plane, and his ear pressure wasn’t balanced properly. After getting off the plane, Shu Ming felt completely exhausted.
Although I have only known Shu Ming for two days, maybe we have a good impression of each other.
The more Cui Mingzhe looked at this kid, the more he liked him, and the more he looked at him, the more interesting he found him.
I felt a bit bored after getting off the plane. I couldn't help but run over to tease Shu Ming: "It's okay, it's okay. We still have five hours to drive later--"
The puppy was completely confused.
No, no one told him that he would have to take such a long car ride?
What should I do? My head hurts even more.
Cui Mingzhe found his expression even more amusing and began to mislead him non-stop: "Xiao Ming, I want to ask you, did you eat the meal on the plane just now?"
Cui Mingzhe’s previous assistant, who also came from a small place, didn’t dare to drink water when he took a plane for the first time - for fear that he would be asked to pay!
After Cui Mingzhe knew about this, he used this question to tease several people, and it always worked.
Now I am also ready to follow suit and tease this funny Shu Xiaoming.
Who knew Shu Ming didn't play by the rules at all, and said confidently: "I ate it."
Not only did he eat lunch, he also drank two cups of what was said to be yogurt from Province M, which was specially supplied on this route.
It tastes so good!
But don't tell anyone about this.
"That's expensive!" Cui Mingzhe deliberately widened his eyes, "Didn't you pay the stewardess? This meal costs this much!"
He stretched out his hand and gestured to 1k, thinking that this must be an astronomical figure for Shu Ming.
I thought smugly, this will scare the puppy, right?
Of course Shu Ming knew that he didn't want any money.
But since Cui Mingzhe wanted to play, Shu Ming didn't mind playing with him.
"Really?" Shu Ming unscrewed the thermos and took a sip of water, letting the steam wet his eyelashes. He then blinked innocently, "It's okay. I've already sold myself to Teacher Cui. Teacher Cui is helping me pay for it. It should be okay."
Shu Ming smiled slyly: "If it really doesn't work, just let me be detained at the airport and work to pay off my debts~"
Cui Mingzhe was also stunned, and was coaxed into silence by him in a few words: "Oh, then I'll pay for you..."
Wait, that’s not right, it’s free!
When I turned around again, Shu Ming was already walking away slowly with his hands in his pockets and humming an unknown tune.
Liang Ruwen glanced at him and said, "You are going backwards as you grow older."
It's not Cui Mingzhe who is teasing others, it's clearly others who are teasing him!
Why haven't you reacted yet?
It's a bit embarrassing to walk next to this person.
He took two quick steps calmly.
The result was that when Cui Mingzhe came to his senses, the people in front of him were almost gone.
"No, you guys...wait for me!"
**
It was already late at night when we arrived at the hotel.
It was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything. The road was really bumpy, and Shu Ming was about to vomit.
So he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Fortunately, Shu Ming is young, and when he woke up the next day, he was a brave man again! It felt like a new day!
Shu Ming excitedly opened the hotel curtains.
What comes into view is a whole green, boundless super grassland!
Wow! ! !
Then, there was a knock on the door behind him: "Shu Ming, hurry up and wash up, we are going to the recording studio for an audition today!"
