Crossing the open-air bridge connecting the teaching building and the teachers' building, the surface of the pond is covered with a layer of hazy water vapor.
Like a dream, like a fairyland.
A few bean-sized transparent water droplets dripped onto her head. Cong Nian tilted her head slightly, and a drop of water wet her eyelashes.
It's raining.
The rain was so heavy that it hurt a bit when it hit my body.
There was an uproar between heaven and earth, and everyone shivered when the wind blew.
"Hurry up, it's raining."
Fang Xun bent over, protecting the homework book in his hand, and turned back to call her.
Dark clouds hung heavy over the sky, and when the two of them quickly ran down the corridor, their school uniforms and hair were half wet.
The sky was dark and there was a breeze in the corridor, and a slight chill climbed up my spine.
"A-choo!"
Cong Nian sneezed and sniffed.
The weather was hot and humid, so she only wore a short-sleeved shirt and no coat when she came out.
It had just started to rain, and the temperature seemed to have dropped a lot. Adding to the rain, she rubbed her arms, which were a little cold from the wind.
The next second, a school uniform jacket was thrown over his head.
"Put it on, don't catch a cold."
A gentle voice sounded.
Fang Xun picked up the book on the windowsill again and stood on the stairs waiting for her.
The school uniform was loose, much larger than her own uniform, just long enough to cover her buttocks, and exuded a faint scent of ink.
I heard that Senior Fang Xun comes from a family of scholars and has a large collection of books at home. He must have come into contact with a lot of pens, ink, paper, and inkstones, which is why the smell of books and ink is left on his clothes.
"It's okay, senior. I'll be back in the classroom soon. I'll give you my coat back..."
Cong Nian saw that Fang Xun was only wearing a thin shirt, so he quickly took off his school uniform, folded it, and wanted to return it.
But Fang Xun raised his eyebrows, his tone sounding aggrieved:
"Are you disgusted with my coat, Junior?" He nodded to himself, as if trying to convince himself, "Yeah, a boy's coat might not smell very good."
“…”
“How could I…”
How could she say the word "disdain"!
"If you don't have any, put them on."
“…”
Why did she feel like she had stepped into a trap? !
Fang Xun took a few steps closer.
Holding the homework book in one hand, he took the school uniform jacket from her with the other hand, unfolded it again and put it on her shoulders, wrapping her thin body.
"Senior, you are in good health, it's okay to wear one less coat, but you are fine."
Fang Xun paused, looking at her bangs that were wet from the rain, sticking to her forehead in clumps, still dripping with water.
It meandered down her cheek and was wiped away by the back of her hand.
He smiled and said, "If you catch a cold, Senior will be responsible for you."
Cong Nian was startled, grabbed the coat that was about to slip off his body, and put it on obediently.
How can he say being responsible so easily?
It's so easy to be misunderstood!
"Let's go, get out of class is almost over."
Fang Xun turned around and walked up the stairs. Seeing that the person behind him seemed to be standing still and not catching up, he turned back and urged him.
"I won't kidnap you, don't worry."
The little girl's face was full of vigilance, and her eyes were wide open, which was quite cute.
He continued to explain.
"I left the things I wanted to give you in the classroom. It's very windy and cold here. Come with me upstairs to get them."
"Or... you can just go back to the classroom and wait for me to come find you."
Cong Nian blinked.
Go back to the classroom and wait for him to come find her?
No need to do that!
She could even imagine the excited expressions of the students when they saw Fang Xun!
Every time he just passed through the corridor, he would cause a commotion on the entire floor!
Wait for her? Forget it!
"I'll go with you."
With his head lowered, Cong Nian trotted to catch up.
"Walk slowly, don't fall."
Fang Xun curled his lips and waited until she walked to his side before turning around and continuing to walk upstairs.
The classroom of Grade 2 (5) is on the third floor near the stairs. The corridor is quiet with only the sound of wind and rain.
Cong Nian was waiting at the back door of the classroom.
The door was not closed tightly. The lights were on in the classroom, and light came through the crack in the door. I couldn't hear the teacher teaching, so they must be having a study session.
Because the wind was so strong that she was shivering, she shrank back near the back door.
Unexpectedly, a boy came out to use the toilet and opened the back door of the classroom.
The support behind him suddenly disappeared, and Cong Nian lost his balance and fell backwards.
The boy who opened the door was also startled and screamed. He never expected that there would be someone standing outside the door.
Cong Nian took several steps back, her face pale with fear. She quickly grabbed the door handle and managed to steady herself from falling backwards.
The door was blown against the wall by the wind with a loud bang, and she was also hit against the wall.
My wrist hit the door frame and my arm felt numb.
Before she could cry out in pain, she could feel many eyes focused on her.
The little face turned from white to red, and buried in the collar of the coat.
How can I go out without looking awkward?
"Who is this girl? Why haven't I seen her before?"
"Maybe we went to the wrong classroom?"
"From the looks of it, I guess we're not in the wrong place. We seem to be looking for someone."
"Are you here to look for Fang Xun?"
The discussions around her reached her ears, and the unfamiliar environment made her feel a little helpless.
She tried to stand up straight and then walked out as if nothing had happened.
"Are you okay, classmate?"
The boy who opened the door saw her red eyes and thought he must have scared her. He wanted to reach out to help her, but was stopped by another hand.
