Chapter 245 "Empty Monument" (3)
After the siblings finished their homework, Qin Jue returned to his small bedroom and took out an ordinary diary from the drawer.
The picture adopts overlapping processing at this time. The close-up of Qin Jue's face while writing and the contents of the diary are lightly overlapped.
X month X day...
As the pages of the diary are turned, Lin Rou's campus life passes day by day, which is a common time transition.
Not long after, a transfer student named Nie Xingliang came to this high school.
He is cold and unsmiling, and his temperament gives people a mysterious feeling, but he is surprisingly down-to-earth. There is no luxury car to pick him up, and bodyguards to lead the way. He still squeezes into the cafeteria with his classmates every day. If I must say, he is better than ordinary people.
A bit more handsome, with just the right sense of distance and presence.
Lin Rou took a leave of absence due to illness when she was in her second year of high school and was in her third year of high school. She missed most of her classes. Her father was worried that she would be stressed if she entered her third year of high school directly, so he used his connections to let Lin Rou return to her second year of high school to repeat.
Nie Xingliang and Lin Rou met because of a student list.
He was transferred to the key class in the third year of high school. The class leader happened to be on leave. With the coaxing and support of the girls, he had to be the acting class leader for a few days. The teacher gave him the old list. After reading it over and over, he couldn't find the person "Lin Rou". I heard someone said
Only then did I find out that she had applied for downgrading and re-reading.
Originally this matter had been discussed, but Nie Xingliang's temperament was calm and rigorous, even a little too old-fashioned, so he took the time to go to the second floor of the high school to find Lin Rou and confirm with her.
Without warning or warning, Lin Rou fell in love with this boy at first sight.
She knew in her heart that maybe it was just because she was very popular and always struggled with admiration, so Nie Xingliang, who seemed to be serious when getting along with her, was very different.
Before this relationship was clear, Lin Rou carefully hid her thoughts and never crossed the line.
Perhaps the two of them have something in common. They are both men and women who have no intention of picking flowers but are always surrounded by love affairs. When getting along, Nie Xingliang and Lin Rou both feel that they can communicate with each other openly and "very comfortable when chatting", so they become
A good friend.
The characters of these two people are placed in a school idol drama, and they have a proper Mary Sue flavor, but the plot is well grasped, so they are not annoying.
Yuan Xiao even added some discussion of gender relations into the lines of Nie Xingliang and Lin Rou, which unexpectedly received a good response from the audience.
"Nie Xingliang is right."
Someone in the audience muttered, "It's really annoying to be in love and heckle. Either a man is talking to a beautiful woman or he is interested in her, and vice versa."
"Now I understand why they can get along so well." Another said, "I'm used to seeing people who are constantly thinking about things, and now I feel much more comfortable when I see them."
During the time we got together, Lin Rou was attracted to her for the first time after all, and when she was alone, she would occasionally reveal her unique confusion.
She has a lot of experience of being liked by others, but this is the first time she likes someone else. However, she has been too close to Nie Xingliang recently. Lin Rou doesn't care about other people's gossip, but sooner or later she will be called to talk to her class teacher if she keeps going like this. It won't affect her.
OK.
What's more, she is determined to study hard. Although her first love is beautiful, she can't delay her future because of this little thing.
This independent and frank girl hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Nie Xingliang directly.
Well, isn’t that what feelings are all about?
When you are unsure, just look for the answer. The coy little woman's feelings are not suitable for Lin Rou at all.
"Ah?"
Qin Juecuo said in astonishment, "No, you want to confess?"
"That's right!" Lin Rou smiled magnanimously, "If he refuses, it's no longer possible. I can also calm down, study hard, and continue to be good friends with him."
Qin Jue stared at her: "What if you accept it? You-"
The younger brother's lips moved, as if it was extremely difficult to pronounce the three words "together".
"Accepted? Hmm..."
Lin Rou thought for a while, "Then make an appointment to take the Z University exam together! We can fall in love after we are admitted to university~"
"...Oh."
Qin Jue forced a smile.
"I can also get into Z University." She said.
"Don't you like to work on machinery? Q University is definitely better for engineering." Lin Rou smiled at her, but didn't reach out to rub her hair or ears. "Personal future is very important. We are family after all. We are not here."
You can even see it in a university."
...Qin Jue raised the corners of his mouth and nodded.
It was discovered.
Alas, you are so cunning.
She gave Lin Rou a few random words, and when she entered the kitchen, her eyes moved to the two class schedules posted on the wall of the living room.
One in the upper right corner says Grade 2, and the other says Grade 1.
Why, it’s obviously only one year...
She smiled self-deprecatingly, looked lonely, and didn't say much.
The plot has progressed to this part, and the "campus" and "ethics" have become clear enough. The heroine Lin Rou's character is well established, especially when it comes to dealing with emotions, she is both sensible and gentle.
The scene turned again, Lin Rou confessed to Nie Xingliang, and the result was unexpected. Nie Xingliang also told her honestly that he had never considered such a thing.
Lin Rou was slightly startled, and unexpectedly found that she didn't feel particularly uncomfortable. In contrast, she just felt a sense of regret that her expectations had failed.
The love in adolescence is like a small bud, with slight growing pains when it breaks out of the ground.
"Uh, I'm sorry." Nie Xingliang was a little awkward in a rare way. There were many people who had confessed to him, either shyly or enthusiastically, but only Lin Rou was free and open-minded, holding a small ball of expectation and waiting for him to reach out his hand.
"It's okay." Lin Rou smiled instead, "Yeah! I'll study hard just in time. You - you won't stay away from me just because of this, right?"
Her expression is lively and vivid, not deliberately playing tricks, but from the perspective of a good friend, showing a bit of worry about being disliked by friends.
Although I don’t know what a girl’s mind is like, but... this kind of thing should be dealt with before confessing, right?
Nie Xingliang was suddenly so cute that he smiled a little.
"No." He said.
"Hiss——"
Lin Rou took half a step back, stretched out a palm to block Nie Xingliang's face, "Wait a moment, you clearly rejected me just now, don't smile at me now, it's too much!"
"...Huh?"
Nie Xingliang was stunned.
"Because, just, you look pretty when you smile!"
Lin Rou said it confidently.
Nie Xingliang said "Oh" slowly, and looked at Lin Rou who was covering her head in front of her and kept chanting "Relax your mind and study first", and unconsciously curled your lips.
He thought again of the palm she stretched out just now.
There are calluses between the fingers formed by holding pens and cooking for a long time, but they are still delicate and white. The lines on the palms are very clear and they appear soft to the touch.
Nie Xingliang stared at her, and an indescribable emotion surged up, but he suppressed it reflexively.
