Chapter 394: Evil (23)
Qiao Xi ignored Yu Zhi.
She lowered her eyes to look at the edge of her clothes, her expression somewhat lonely. Her beautiful eyes were as clear and transparent as obsidian. They were as quiet as a stream in the forest, elegant and peaceful.
Yu Zhi likes to see her like this.
I always find it very interesting to see this seemingly calm girl become panicked or confused because of him.
When she was moved, her almond-shaped eyes were misty and full of autumn water, which made this holy and elegant tranquility more ambiguous and charming.
Watching the angel fall into infatuation.
Very beautiful.
Yu Zhi held up his face, looking at Qiao Xi with interest, a half-smile on his face: "I heard footsteps, they should be coming over."
He raised his hand and touched the girl's soft cheek and squeezed it.
Qiao Xi turned her head away from Yu Zhi's hand.
"I don't want anything to do with you."
"Why? In comparison, it seems like I treat you more gently. Zhan Qi is not gentle with women."
Yu Zhi was not discouraged even though she avoided him.
He caressed the girl's soft and fair cheek and gently pinched her soft face.
Qiao Xi was about to say something.
But at one point, she frowned, suddenly aware of an intense gaze. She felt a strange chill running down her spine as someone stared at her. The girls from Class 3 walked by, chatting and laughing.
There were also sounds of boys laughing in the background.
As such a sound approaches.
The intense feeling of being watched became particularly obvious, making people shudder. Qiao Xi and Yu Zhi originally had window seats next to the corridor.
You can see it by turning your head.
People from the third shift passing by.
The girl must have sensed something, and her body tensed up involuntarily. Her hands on her knees clenched involuntarily, and her expression became unhappy.
Yu Zhi noticed her mood change.
He glanced sideways out the window, not knowing what he saw. He suddenly smiled, as if greeting someone.
Yu Zhi's hands were still pinching the girl's soft cheeks.
When he met that person's eyes, he was even more calm and fearless. He even pinched Qiao Xi's cheek and put his hand on the side of Qiao Xi's face.
It blocked the girl's peripheral vision.
Didn't let her see it.
Just through the window, in the corridor outside, Zhan Qi passed by. His dark and gloomy eyes seemed to want to eat her alive, extremely paranoid and morbid.
How to describe this emotion?
Yu Zhi watched at his ease, his expression even more ferocious than ferocious, his quiet demeanor even more captivating than hysterical. His dark eyes held an insatiable greed as he gazed at Qiao Xi.
It's like looking at a dead person.
There is coldness and malice that penetrates into the bones.
Zhan Qi withdrew his gaze from Qiao Xi and glanced at Yu Zhi. He then ignored him and left with the people from Class 3 with a cold expression.
The people playing around didn't notice his abnormality.
Talking and laughing as usual.
It wasn't until these sounds faded away completely and the sudden sense of oppression disappeared that Qiao Xi's tense and stiff body seemed to slowly relax.
Yu Zhi saw every change in her expression.
He withdrew his hand and looked out the window.
"Looking at the weather, it looks like it's going to rain."
Qiao Xi subconsciously followed his gaze, looking out the window at the sky. It was a gloomy, lifeless gray, devoid of any light. The warm sun had long been obscured by thick clouds, leaving only a vast expanse of gray.
A gentle breeze blew in from the window.
The coolness seeps into the skin and gradually spreads to the fingertips.
It's a bit cold.
Yu Zhi put one hand in his pocket, stood up, and turned to look at her: "I don't have an umbrella, so I'm leaving first. Do you want to come with me? I can take you home by the way?"
Qiao Xi shook her head.
"No, I have an umbrella and I can't skip class."
"It's up to you then—" The boy dragged out the words lazily, as if he found her appearance as a good student boring. He waved his hand casually and walked out of the classroom.
There are no self-study classes supervised by teachers.
It was the last class again, and many people had already gone home.
There were not many people left in the classroom, and as the sky became increasingly dark and depressing, the few students who had remained in the classroom and were studying hard.
They looked up at the dark sky outside.
They all chose to pack up and go back early, otherwise it would be more troublesome to go home when the rain gets heavier.
"Xixi, do you want to go together?"
Bai Zhizhi also packed her things, put on her schoolbag and came to Qiao Xi's desk.
She looked at the book that Qiao Xi had placed on the table.
She looked at the knowledge points and notes that the girl had carefully written in her English textbook, and then saw that Qiao Xi had no intention of getting up and leaving, so she couldn't help but admire her.
"No, I'll wait until get out of class is over."
Qiao Xi shook her head and politely declined Bai Zhizhi.
Zhan Qi probably didn't bring an umbrella. She still remembered that when she first met Zhan Qi, the boy was basically soaked. With his personality, it didn't seem like he would bring an umbrella.
After all, we are from the same family.
She brought him, and as an older sister in name, she couldn't really leave her brother alone and let him go back in the rain, right?
"Well, don't be too late."
Bai Zhizhi gave some instructions and had to leave first.
Her home is far from the school, and if she doesn't go back early, when it rains heavily and the road there is slippery and crowded, it will be difficult to walk.
Her parents still have to go to work.
Bai Zhizhi didn't want to bother her parents to pick her up.
In addition, in this kind of weather, if it rains heavily tonight and Mom and Dad can't come back smoothly, then she will have to go and deliver food to Grandma who is in the hospital.
So we have to go back early to prepare.
Qiao Xi watched her leave until Bai Zhizhi's figure completely disappeared from her sight. Then she withdrew her gaze and focused on the textbook in front of her, continuing to do what she had not finished.
Carefully reorganize the knowledge points.
Time passes by every second.
The music class in the adjacent classroom was the last one, and after class, most students left through the side stairs with their backpacks. Except for Qiao Xi, everyone else in Class 2 had also left.
The lights in the classroom were not turned off.
The dark and depressing sky outside the window has gradually turned into a deep black color, and the dark clouds that suddenly pressed down overhead are rolling like thick ink.
Fine, dense, cold rain began to fall.
Downstairs was the noisy and bustling sound of students.
Urging each other to get home before the rain got heavier, Qiao Xi looked out the window at the dark and depressing sky. She closed her beautiful eyes slightly and began to pack her things.
The empty classroom was extremely quiet.
All that remained was the crisp sound of raindrops hitting the window. As the sky darkened, the music played by the raindrops became denser and more rapid.
It's raining heavily.
It forms a crashing melody.
In the early winter in the south, cold and damp moisture seeps into the classroom windows, gradually filling the room with the fragrance of moist grass and trees outside.
And the warmth is taken away bit by bit.
All that remained was the dampness and coldness that slowly began to seep in.
After Qiao Xi packed her things and put on her schoolbag, she immediately took out the umbrella that she had placed next to her schoolbag and held it in her hand. She pressed the light switch next to the classroom door.
With a "click".
This little light that lit up in the gloomy wind and rain was extinguished in an instant.
Swallowed by the endless haze outside the window.
Together they were enveloped in the endless pouring rain.
There was no one in Class 3's classroom, and there was no light left.
Qiao Xi walked straight towards the stairs. The noisy and bustling sounds had long since died down. After a period of commotion, the students who were supposed to leave had all left. She looked around, towards the music room.
No one was seen.
Looking down, I saw only raindrops falling on the ground, creating ripples.
I didn’t see Zhan Qi.
Could it be...did he leave first?
Qiao Xi's nervous expression gradually became tinged with a hint of loss and worry. She couldn't help but tighten her schoolbag strap, turned around and hurried downstairs.
The damp, cold air that filled my lungs stung.
Occasionally, raindrops splash in and hit your eyes accidentally.
But she didn't care about that.
Qiao Xi hurried downstairs, and when she turned the last corner and stepped down the stairs, her breathing suddenly stopped, her beautiful eyes slightly widened, and all her anxiety and worry solidified on her pretty face.
Within sight.
Finally, that familiar voice appeared.
A boy in a blue and white school uniform was leaning against the wall with his backpack slung over one shoulder. His unfocused gaze was fixed on a certain spot in the corridor in front of him, and his clear pupils looked empty.
It seems like there is nothing in it.
The hazy rain scene is filled with mist.
His cold profile was made to look exceptionally soft, and his cold and distant eyes turned sideways, meeting the girl's slightly flustered beautiful eyes squarely.
She ran downstairs.
Before he could calm his disordered breathing.
The hem of her dress, slightly disheveled from running, was also stained with dampness from the rain and mist. Now that Zhan Qi had caught her like this, Qiao Xi was momentarily at a loss as to what to do.
She clenched her fists nervously.
She pursed her rosy lips as she faced the boy's gaze. She walked over to him, feeling the familiar cold, oppressive feeling weighing heavily on her chest.
It almost reminded her of that suffocating night.
Qiao Xi lowered her eyes and lowered her head.
It was as if he was having an extremely intense inner struggle.
She clenched her hands at her sides so tightly that her knuckles turned unnaturally pale from the excessive force.
In this almost frozen silence, she finally spoke hesitantly in a low voice.
"...Want to go back together?"
