"Um?"
Yu Xinghe raised her eyes, her gaze deep because of the memories just now.
It's like an endless night that makes people fall into it at first sight.
Zhou Jingyan pursed his lips and looked at her worriedly.
She was frowning, her whole face shrouded in gloom, as if trapped in a nightmare, covered with a layer of dust.
He called her several times but there was no response.
He actually didn't like the feeling of being isolated by her, it made his heart ache.
"What did you just...say?"
Her voice was a little hoarse and sounded a little heavy.
But those beautiful eyes are so clear that you can see through them at a glance.
The video on the phone has finished playing and has been stuck on the pause screen for a long time.
There was no sound in the headphones.
His hand covered her trembling hand, and the warm touch came from his palm.
It made her feel inexplicably at ease.
Seeing his worried look, she realized that he seemed to have just spoken to her.
"I just said, sister, are you thinking of something unhappy?"
Zhou Jingyan hesitated, but still asked, "Are you thinking about...the past?"
His heart was heavy and his movements were cautious due to nervousness.
"I think your expression just now is not right..."
What happened in the past is her Achilles' heel.
She didn't want to recall it.
She didn't even tell Sister Nian a word.
Don't ask him how he knew that.
When she was sad, he asked Sister Nian, who sent her home, in a roundabout way, but the other party didn't know the specific reason.
Zhou Jingyan looked at her quietly, with a clear light in his eyes.
He wanted to tell her that with him in her, she wouldn't have to work so hard.
I wanted to be closer to her, but I could only stay at the most polite distance.
"Sister, if you have anything that makes you unhappy, you can tell me."
Zhou Jingyan leaned forward and patted his chest to assure, "I'm not a child anymore. I can help you with many things..."
“…”
"Stop talking."
Yu Xinghe interrupted what he was about to say.
He frowned and his voice turned cold.
The hand on the table clenched into a fist, broke free from his grasp, and hugged the strawberry milkshake cup.
I wanted the hot milkshake to keep me warm, but it turned out to be cold.
The sudden indifference scared the person sitting opposite.
Zhou Jingyan was stunned.
The smile on his lips froze, and the corners of his eyes began to turn red.
She let out a light breath, lowered her eyelids without looking at him, and clicked on the next video.
"I'm fine."
"I was just thinking about how to solve this problem."
She is lying.
Zhou Jingyan looked at her fair little face and felt very distressed.
Every time she lies, she looks somewhere else and pretends to be relaxed and calm.
Seeing that she really started watching the video, there were many things I wanted to say but I didn't have the chance.
He didn't want to distract her.
He knew very well how hard and difficult it was for her to study.
Zhou Jingyan silently and slowly exhaled a long breath.
My throat felt like it was choked and I had to swallow constantly.
He didn't touch the strawberry milkshake she bought for him on the table.
He was afraid that she didn't have enough to drink, so he gave her his cup.
As for why not wait until she wants to drink it again and buy it directly?
The principle of buying only as much as you drink was taught to him by Yu Xinghe.
He always kept her words in mind.
He was a little restless and looked up at her from time to time.
If she couldn't hold it in and got sad, he would be the first to offer his shoulder.
It's just that she looks...
Why is it so quiet?!
Is this the calm before the storm?
Of course Yu Xinghe could feel his gaze.
When he looked at her for who knows how many times, she raised her eyes to meet his.
There was seriousness in his eyes, as if he was teaching a child.
"You should study hard too. The high school entrance exam is only half a year away. You need to concentrate and ask me if you don't understand anything."
She reached out and tapped his book.
Zhou Jingyan nodded obediently, still looking at her secretly.
There were many neatly written notes on the book spread out on the table.
There are also traces of different colored highlighters, which have faded a little after a year.
These were all textbooks she used when she was in junior high school.
It is said that the academic goddess' notebook is very expensive and hard to come by. When she was giving a speech to outstanding graduates, some of her junior classmates wanted to buy it from her at a high price, but she smiled and declined.
It is said that her textbooks have already been found.
The day she finished her exams, she handed over all her textbooks and notebooks to him.
I hope it helps his grades.
"Sister, your cup hasn't been touched for a long time. It should be cold, right?"
"Do you want to..."
He looked up at her, his eyes warm.
"Drink this."
Zhou Jingyan pushed the strawberry milkshake and straw in front of him in front of her.
She kept biting the straw, but no light pink strawberry milkshake came out of the transparent straw.
Obviously he wasn't drinking.
It was cold, so her cup should have gotten cold.
Drinking it when it’s cold is not good for your health.
The worrying "Mother Zhou" is online again.
Yu Xinghe let go of the straw in her mouth, which had been bitten to pieces by her.
"good."
If I don't agree to him, he will definitely pester her for a long time.
Then this great review time will be wasted.
It's really inappropriate.
The milk tea shop is not big, but very cozy.
It must have been renovated not long ago. The tables and chairs are all new, and the chandelier above is bright and warm.
Lyrical music was playing on the speakers, and a deep, magnetic male voice was singing an old love song.
There are also deliverymen in yellow or blue clothes coming in and out, and the mechanical lucky cat at the door will say "Hello, welcome" after a while.
The midday sun was blocked out by the glass door.
Also blocked outside the door are the fierce autumn wind and countless sorrows.
Like the chaotic lines on a book, disorganized and disturbing.
Yu Xinghe watched the video on his phone. He could hear Chen Yanke's voice in his headphones, as well as the rustling sound of students flipping through books.
But my thoughts seemed to have drifted thousands of miles away.
For some reason, she couldn't concentrate after hearing what he just said.
I couldn't help but start biting the straw in my mouth again.
Things in the past...
Her eyes suddenly changed from confusion to alertness.
This was a sign that she was about to raise all her thorns.
Too.
Zhou Jingyan lived across the street from her house, so he was naturally very familiar with her family's affairs.
But she never mentioned it to him, thinking that he was young and naive and didn't know about this dark past.
But unexpectedly, he seemed to know?
She lowered her eyes, her eyelids slightly raised, as if she was thinking of some bad past, and her body subconsciously shrank.
