Come closer
I remember that in the second semester of my senior year, there was a birthday dinner for a girl who liked Xie Yanzhi. Yue Yutong's family had some money and she had a lot of friends around her. There were only a few famous people in F High School and everyone knew each other. Chen Xiyu didn't want to go at first, but the little princess brought people to the door of her class to look for her and Xie Yanzhi several times. The girl was very cute, but a little spoiled. When Chen Xiyu heard that it was her 16th birthday, she didn't want to refuse her in public.
Both Chen Xiyu and Xie Yanzhi went there that time.
After dinner, everyone sang in KTV. I don’t know if it was because someone gave Liang Jingru the courage, or someone was cheering, or the KTV lighting created a strange atmosphere, but it made Xie Yanzhi’s scumbag face look like a male model.
The girl came over with her phone and asked to add him on WeChat. Xie Yanzhi didn't refuse. But when Xie Yanzhi was leaning back on the sofa looking at new friend applications, someone gave the girl the courage, but Yue Yutong kissed her directly, crossing the line. Chen Xiyu and her friends, who were eating fruit plates nearby, were shocked.
The music stopped and no one dared to speak.
Chen Xiyu chewed half of the apple piece in his mouth and didn't think of swallowing it.
Dare to kiss Xie Yanzhi? That guy may be a playboy, but he doesn't accept everyone who comes! Apart from their group of childhood friends who played in the mud together, Chen Xiyu has never seen a girl stay with Xie Yanzhi for more than a month.
Xie Yanzhi reacted and dodged in panic, but the girl still kissed the corner of her mouth.
Xie Zhiyan pushed her away. Without holding back, he pushed the girl to the ground. He stood up, glanced at her, and without even a glance, left the table with a cold face. The girl blushed and burst into tears.
Even though the girl came to him several times later, he never gave her face. Yue Yutong found Chen Xiyu again and asked her to deliver a letter. Chen Xiyu couldn't help but tell her something.
"Xie Yanzhi is a good friend, loyal, and humorous. But forget about romance. As you can see, he's a bit of a mysophobe. If he doesn't like you, he won't give you any face."
The girl finally ran away crying.
At the time, Chen Xiyu's assessment of that guy was that Xie Yanzhi looked easy to get along with, but in reality, he was warm on the outside but cold on the inside, a man who would get away with anything without getting hurt. They had grown up together and knew each other well, so she knew his bad temper.
Chen Xiyu became interested in the girl who could make Xie Yanzhi take the initiative to hold her hand. He wanted to take a closer look at the girl, as he felt that she looked familiar. At this time, someone blocked their view, and when they looked again, the two were gone.
Chen Xiyu had no choice but to turn his gaze back to the girl in front of him.
The person who came was very beautiful, with delicate makeup and eyelash extensions. It was Yang Xiaoxiao, the girl who led the exercises in the last physical education class.
Yang Xiaoxiao smiled and handed Tan Zhao some water. "I've finished watching your game. Here, I bought you some water."
Tan Zhao showed no expression and shook his head, "No, thank you."
"I took a special leave from the rehearsal room just to watch your performance. Are you really not going to even take my water?"
The girl did not take back the water she had raised, and her tone was aggrieved.
Yang Xiaoxiao wore an apricot knitted jacket and a short skirt, and looked charming in the autumn breeze.
The girl's straightforward words made Tan Zhao not know how to refuse. He looked at Chen Xiyu, hoping she would come up with a solution.
Chen Xiyu looked at the girl and thought she was very pretty. Even though she had just ignored him standing beside her, it didn't matter since he didn't know her anyway. Chen Xiyu thought heartlessly.
The heartless Chen Xiyu patted Tan Zhao's shoulder and said, "I bought it especially for you, so just accept it, Tan Zhao."
Tan Zhao lowered his eyes, took the water from the girl, and said thank you again.
Only at this moment did Yang Xiaoxiao begin to seriously examine the girl next to her.
It seemed that he listened to this girl very much. She was the monitor of Class 3, and Tan Zhao's deskmate, right?
"Hello, my name is Yang Xiaoxiao. I'm from Class 6."
"Hello, Chen Xiyu. I'm from Class 3."
"Are you the photographer of this sports meeting?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked, looking at the camera in her hand.
Chen Xiyu said happily: "Yes."
So innocent, the joy almost overflowed from the words.
Yang Xiaoxiao thought.
"Can I see the photo of Tan Zhao you just took?"
Chen Xiyu was stunned for two seconds.
"I saw you were filming Tan Zhao's match just now. Can I see his picture?"
Yang Xiaoxiao turned to ask Xiang Tanzhao, and said with a smile, "You don't mind, Zhao?"
"The last time I visited your house, I saw that you didn't have any photos hanging in your house. I wanted to print some out. It just so happens that your aunt's birthday is coming up soon, so I wanted to give it to her along with the gifts. She should like it very much."
Ah, are they so familiar?
Chen Xiyu was stunned and looked at Tan Zhao.
Tan Zhao showed no emotion, lowering his head, completely losing his previous high spirits. It was as if hearing some key words triggered a feeling of sadness.
"There's no need." His voice was very calm, filled with self-blame and inferiority.
The last sentence was so soft, so soft that Chen Xiyu could hardly hear it. "She won't like it."
"I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Tan Zhao walked away.
That is a manifestation of avoidance and escapism.
Under the big tree, Yang Xiaoxiao was looking through the photos in Chen Xiyu's camera.
Chen Xiyu was staring into the distance in a daze.
Does Tan Zhao have a bad relationship with his mother? Are his family and Yang Xiaoxiao's family close?
She originally thought that they were not familiar with each other and would not have much communication.
Until the girl next to me spoke, followed by the sound of a broadcast reminding people that the game was about to begin, the shouts of cheers from the audience, and the sounds of classmates chatting and laughing not far away.
"How long have you and Zhao known each other?"
Chen Xiyu was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and replied, "One and a half months."
"A month and a half? Judging from Zhao's attitude towards you, I thought you two had known each other for a long time."
"Also? Have you known each other for a long time?"
Yang Xiaoxiao: “Five years.”
Chen Xiyu didn't expect that five years, is that so long?
"Our parents had business dealings, but when I first met him, he was still a little fat boy."
"Little Fatty?"
"Yeah, I didn't expect that after not seeing him for a few years, he would become so outstanding when he came back."
Smile added, "I mean in every way."
Yang Xiaoxiao probably had an idea and returned the camera to her. "Is this camera yours? I'll add you on WeChat. Can you send me these photos of Tan Zhao?"
Chen Xiyu and she exchanged WeChat accounts.
Yang Xiaoxiao said to her, "We often stayed together when we were young. Ever since Zhao's parents divorced and his uncle remarried, he went to live with his uncle at Qingying. It's normal for Zhao to feel alienated from me again."
Yang Xiaoxiao looked at her with a smile, "But it doesn't matter. After all, we were so familiar with each other before, and her mother likes me very much."
"Our family background, knowledge, appearance, and uselessness are all excellent and the most compatible. Don't you agree, classmate Chen?"
Chen Xiyu didn't know how to respond. No one would say so much to a stranger for no apparent reason. She also felt that Yang Xiaoxiao was using these words to point her out, to remind her of something.
Without waiting for Chen Xiyu's answer, Yang Xiaoxiao said goodbye to her.
Chen Xiyu thought that since they had known each other for so long, their friendship should be deeper than that between her and Tan Zhao, who had only known each other for over a month.
She knew nothing about Tan Zhao's past. Today she learned a little bit: his parents had divorced a long time ago, and he used to be a "little fat boy."
Chen Xiyu called up the picture of Tan Zhao that she had just taken, and couldn't help but imagine it was a fat mini Tan Zhao.
My face will become chubby, I will become shorter, and my clothes will become smaller, but my skin will remain white.
Chen Xiyu has a rich imagination, but why does the face of this little fat boy in her mind feel so familiar?
Did she accidentally form a preconceived notion and match the face of a friend she knew with Xiao Tanzhao?
Before she had time to think about it, someone was calling her from a distance.
"Senior! Sister Xiyu!"
The junior student waved at her from ten meters away.
Hey, why does it feel familiar?
