MTL - Chasing Summer-Chapter 42
By the time Chi Yao packed up his things, Lin Zhexia had finished crying.
She grew up so big, she cried countless times in front of Chi Yao.
But this was Chi Yao's first time, and she didn't know the real reason for her crying.
Chi Yao helped her carry her schoolbag, and the two walked out of the school all the way: "Coward, do you want to drink milk tea?"
Lin Zhexia walked behind him: "...I don't want to drink."
"If you insist on a treat," Lin Zhexia deliberately pretended to be okay, and then said, "You can discount it to me, and treat it as if I've drunk it. It just so happens that I don't have enough pocket money this month."
The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
Sure enough, Chi Yao was waiting for her to catch up with him, and lowered his head to look at her: "You think beautifully."
"..."
After returning, Lin Zhexia just wanted to go home quickly, but just as she was about to leave, Chi Yao carried the heavy winter school uniform collar into his house as if carrying something.
Then she watched Chi Yao put down her schoolbag, took off her coat and threw it on the sofa.
He was wearing a sweater underneath, which was still hanging loosely on his body. It was different from the neatly dressed school uniform. He seemed much more casual and uninhibited, and even had a subtle sense of privacy.
He took a pen and paper, and roughly wrote down the math questions he had passed: "The last question is a function question."
"The penultimate question, solid geometry."
He hooked his pen and said, "Go back after listening."
Lin Zhexia said "oh", sat down beside him obediently, and listened to his lecture.
Maybe it's because she cried today.
When Chi Yao gave a lecture, he spoke in more detail than usual. Although the words written on the paper were sharp, Lin Zhexia felt extremely gentle.
"Do you understand, if you don't understand, I will say it again."
Lin Zhexia actually turned over the book and read the example questions after she came out of the examination room, but she still listened carefully, and then said: "Understood, I won't make mistakes again next time."
I won't cry again next time.
I will never think about this love again.
She will hide it carefully.
Because after the next semester, the sophomores of their current class will be promoted to the third grade, and they left a lot of homework for the winter vacation, so much that they have no time to go out to play. The word "winter vacation" seems to have been erased this year.
The only time Lin Zhexia went out to play during the winter vacation this year was because of a phone call from He Yang: "Are you free tomorrow? Call Brother Yao. I'll treat you to a movie."
Lin Zhexia's first reaction was that there was a ghost: "How can you be so kind?"
He Yang: "I have always been such a generous person."
"You have a problem with your cognition, and your memory may also have a certain degree of confusion," Lin Zhexia said, "Da Zhuang, you must go to the hospital when you have time."
He Yang: "..."
He Yang: "I really treat you, it just feels like we haven't been together for a long time."
Lin Zhexia made a decisive request: "I also want popcorn and Coke."
"..." He Yang was silent for a while, "Okay, then tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon, see you at the gate of the community."
If she knew what day tomorrow was and gave her another chance, even if He Yang bought her a double serving of popcorn, she wouldn't go.
But there are no ifs in life.
The next day, she, Chi Yao, and He Yang set off from the community and walked to the cinema.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the cinema, I saw a huge poster standing at the entrance.
Pink, big heart, it says: 2.14 Happy Valentine's Day.
…
There are a lot of people in the cinema, and most of the people coming and going are couples.
Lin Zhexia looked at the poster and asked, "Da Zhuang, please explain."
He Yang just finished picking up the tickets, pretended to be stupid, and laughed twice.
Lin Zhexia: "What did I say yesterday, there must be something wrong with your kindness."
He Yang still laughed.
Lin Zhexia: "But I didn't expect that the problem would be so serious."
She closed her eyes and said restrainedly: "What do you think, tell me, although I'm not a doctor, it may be difficult to understand your thoughts."
Only then did He Yang speak out: "Oh, watching a movie, what kind of festival is there? Is this kind of insignificant festival important?"
After he finished speaking, he found Lin Zhexia and Chi Yao staring at him silently.
Especially his Brother Yao.
This person's face appeared here again on this kind of festival, and people who passed by couldn't help but look around.
"Okay, then I'll tell you the truth."
Holding the ticket, He Yang said with a little awkwardness, "Actually, I was pretending to be aggressive in front of my classmates. I said that I would definitely be able to pass this festival this year. With my brother's charm, it is not a problem to ask a girl out to watch a movie."
"..."
"Then I asked a girl in our class if she wanted to watch a movie together, but she was rejected."
"Although I was rejected, this movie must be watched, otherwise where will I put my face?"
"What's the matter, don't single people deserve to celebrate Valentine's Day? Today I'm going to celebrate this festival with you two, my good brothers from He Yang for many years. The three of us will have a sweet time together."
As soon as He Yang finished speaking, Lin Zhexia and Chi Yao both reacted in the same way.
Lin Zhexia: "Goodbye."
Chi Yao: "Let's go. You can see for yourself."
He Yang hurriedly stepped forward to pull people: "No - I bought all the tickets, three of them, plus the popcorn package, which cost me a lot of money. Although there is a reason for this, I really want to invite you to watch the movie. ! You can’t just leave me alone like this!!”
Thinking of her popcorn, Lin Zhexia hesitated and paused slightly.
He Yang turned his head again, turned to the ruthless person, and shouted: "Brother Yao, save face."
Chi Yao: "Get lost."
"..."
He Yang then shouted: "Good brother, it's not easy for me to secretly save some money for movie tickets."
Chi Yao endured it, but his pace was slower: "Shut up."
Finally, He Yang squeezed out a sentence: "Yao Yao!"
Two minutes later, the three of them sat in the corner rest area and waited.
He Yang was afraid that they would run away, so he sat between them, one on the left and one on the right.
Lin Zhexia on the right is holding popcorn.
Chi Yao on the left had a cold face, with one hand in his pocket, and the other hand pulled the zipper of his jacket to the top, his collar stood up, covering the lower half of his face. Only the high bridge of the nose and the slightly arrogant lowered eyebrows were exposed.
He Yang: "Sitting with me, isn't it embarrassing? Don't do this."
Chi Yao said coldly, "It's good that you know."
He Yang: "..."
There are still ten minutes left in the movie.
Lin Zhexia was eating popcorn, thinking about how she would "spend the holiday" with Chi Yao by mistake.
Undeniably, at the moment of sitting down.
She was actually a little grateful to He Yang.
Because if it wasn't like this, she couldn't find a reason, and she couldn't find any position to watch a movie with Chi Yao today.
He Yang snatched a piece of popcorn from her hand and stuffed it into his mouth: "Brother Xia, what are you thinking about?"
Lin Zhexia came back to her senses and said, "I'm thinking about what tool to use when I go back later and beat you up."
He Yang hesitated to speak, but finally dared to speak: "Actually... I still have a merciless request."
"?"
"Can you take a photo with me, without showing your face, just show your hand and the ticket stub with the movie ticket."
"What about me, post it on Moments."
He Yang continued: "The main thing is that I have let everything out. If I want to go to a movie with someone, I have to post the ticket stubs."
Lin Zhexia felt a little choked on the popcorn in his mouth.
She asked: "Are you planning to use countless lies to cover one lie?"
He Yang urged: "Help a group of brothers. If you don't want to show your hands, you can hide them in your sleeves. Hurry up, brother Xia, my posture is already set."
"..."
Lin Zhexia looked at He Yang with one hand holding up the mobile phone to prepare to take a picture, and the other hand was holding the ticket stub, he was in a dilemma.
He Yang this person.
It must be a cerebral thrombosis.
How could he come up with such a bad idea to lie to himself?
This is actually a small thing.
Moreover, she and He Yang are very familiar, but this kind of thing seems inappropriate.
She hadn't figured out how to refuse, when suddenly a cold voice came from a distance from her, "I'll lend you my hand."
He Yang: "...!"
Lin Zhexia: "...?!"
Chi Yao stretched out his hand from his pocket and asked again, "Where's the ticket?"
When Chi Yao said this, it was simply magical.
He Yang opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "This is not appropriate."
Chi Yao sneered: "You can even think of asking her to post the ticket stubs, what else is inappropriate."
He Yang: "It's mainly not suitable for you."
Chi Yao raised his lowered eyes slightly, as if he was about to win, he said with the corners of his mouth, "Why, my hands are not as good-looking as hers?"
He Yang was at a loss for words: "No, although your fingers are quite thin and your hands are not bad, but your joints are still boys' joints after all."
"It looks like a man. Didn't I post it to make people laugh..."
Chi Yao's words left him speechless: "You can make photos."
He Yang: "..."
He Yang growled in his heart.
You also know about P pictures.
Lin Zhexia felt like a melon-eating crowd, and suddenly turned into a bystander, still unable to keep his mouth shut.
After finishing speaking, the boy impatiently waved his outstretched hand in the air, urging him: "Ticket."
Their tickets are all on He Yang.
He Yang's expression was distorted and complicated, his hand holding the ticket trembled slightly, and he finally sent out a last cry for help to Lin Zhexia: "Brother Xia."
Lin Zhexia moved a little to the side: "Don't look at me, I won't take pictures with you."
He Yang accepted his fate.
"Well, your hand is also a hand," He Yang closed his eyes, and his heart sank, "I can p."
He randomly drew a ticket to Chi Yao, and handed the extra ticket to Lin Zhexia.
However, Chi Yao glanced at it and said, "Change one."
He Yang looked at this 6-row 13-seater, and couldn't understand why it was rejected: "It's not all movie tickets, what's the difference."
Chi Yao said "Oh" casually: "13, unlucky. I don't want it."
He Yang had nothing to say, and exchanged tickets with Chi Yao.
Then two boys.
Take the ticket.
Bring your hands together.
After He Yang took the photo, he quickly put his hand down.
Although Chi Yao's hands are very photogenic, with long fingers and every joint is just right, so he can take good-looking shots without much need to look for angles. But this photo is still somewhat hard to look at.
The movie starts to check tickets for admission.
After Chi Yao got up, He Yang called him: "Chi Yao."
Chi Yao didn't even look at him: "What **** do you have to do?"
He Yang's voice was difficult, and he was a bit twitchy: "No, I just want to ask, you won't... have you always had that kind of thought about me?"
"..."
"Although I'm not as good-looking as you, I'm still pretty attractive. And when you think about it, you seem to have never had a girl you like."
Chi Yao gave him a little look this time, his brows were raised slightly, and the corners of his eyes were lowered: "How long have you been suffering from this symptom?"
He Yang: "..."
"If you feel that life is going too smoothly recently," Chi Yao said again, "you don't need to be so devious, I can let you go to the hospital to lie down for half a month now."
Lin Zhexia, who had been shrinking to the side silently as an invisible person, burst into a violent cough.
"Sorry, it was too exciting just now."
Lin Zhexia coughed and explained, "I didn't pay attention when I was drinking, and I almost choked to death on Coke."
After being interrupted by Lin Zhexia, several people stopped talking about the photo taking just now, and followed the crowd to check the tickets.
The main reason is that the two parties also wanted to pretend that nothing had happened.
I can't wait to pack up what happened just now and throw it into a garbage recycling bin called "Black History".
Lin Zhexia was the last to check the ticket.
She didn't look carefully at the allocated movie tickets until she handed the tickets to the ticket inspector.
The one in her hand is 6 rows and 11 seats.
After Chi Yao exchanged tickets with He Yang, he happened to sit next to her.
This is obviously an ordinary detail, but her heartbeat began to intensify because of it.
Just because, later on, he will sit next to him.
After checking the ticket, Lin Zhexia didn't care about watching the road.
She followed her intuition and walked forward, because the crowd was too dense, she accidentally turned left with the person in front of her.
Suddenly, an out-of-the-box force behind her tugged her.
Chi Yao didn't know when he came behind her.
"Wrong way," Chi Yao put his hand on top of her head, signaling her to stop, "Hall 2 is on the right."
