Chapter 166: You Are Wrong, I Refuse To Be Right, You Are Ignorant And I Am Ignorant (19)
It was Nan Xiaojin who took the initiative to find him.
When he finished class that day, a very familiar girl stood at the door of the teaching building, as if she was waiting for someone. Zhao Yi has always been less interested in people and things in the outside world. He is the kind of character who rarely cares about passers-by when he walks on the road. Therefore, although he thought the girl was familiar at first glance, he didn’t think much about it, and continued to walk. on. After all, he subconsciously thought that Nan Xiaojin would not appear here.
Who knew that before he walked out the door, the girl saw him from a distance, with a pair of beautiful almond eyes flashing, and she walked a little hurriedly in front of him.
“Zhao Yi!” she shouted crisply.
If it is said that Nan Xiaojin three years later and Nan Xiaojin three years ago have changed a little in appearance, then the voice has not changed at all. The familiarity made Zhao Yi stop directly.
He stopped in front of Nan Xiaojin and looked down at the long-lost girl: “Nan Xiaojin?”
“It’s me, didn’t you recognize it all at once?” she said with a raised face and a smile.
Yes, she has changed a lot.
In the past, Nan Xiaojin was petite and cute, and her wealthy family made her like a little princess all the time, delicate and soft.
But now Nan Xiaojin has changed a lot. She seems to be a lot taller, and her dressing style has become more mature and intellectual. She was wearing a khaki trench coat today, with a pair of over-the-knee boots under her feet, and her hair was dyed flax gray.
But the smile is still exactly the same as before, like a little sunflower.
“Have you returned to China?” Zhao Yi’s eyes filled with joy, and he was obviously surprised.
“yes.”
“When did this happen?”
“Just come back for a week.”
“It’s inconvenient to speak here, let’s go to the cafe in front of us and take a seat.” Zhao Yi said.
He said, guarding Nan Xiaojin with one hand and went to the cafe.
Sitting down in a secluded corner of the cafe, Nan Xiaojin held a cup of hot caramel macchiato in his hand, and Zhao Yi himself ordered a cup of pour-over coffee.
“I heard that you are here at Q University. You are really famous everywhere. I just asked and someone told me that you are taking classes here today.” Nan Xiaojin said with a smile.
“You know I’m in Q University?”
“Yeah, I specifically asked about it at the beginning of this year. It just so happened that my school will have an exchange student quota for Q University this year, so I’m here.” Nan Xiaojin said.
“Then why don’t you ask me directly?”
After Nan Xiaojin left, she cut off contact with all the people she knew in the past, and even her best best friend could no longer contact her.
This is actually a kind of protection. After all, Nan Xiaojin was not safe at the time, and it was not a good thing to know her whereabouts.
“I want to give you a surprise.” Nan Xiaojin narrowed her eyes.
Zhao Yi smiled, but the smile was not deep, and he seemed a little helpless: “Actually, it’s better to tell me in advance that you are going to go back to China alone. Arranged.”
Nan Xiaojin’s smile also faded.
She could feel that Zhao Yi was different from three years ago.
Three years ago, she worked hard to pull Zhao Yi to her side a little bit, but after she left for three years, there was another estrangement between Zhao Yi and her.
In fact, she has long thought of it, and the current situation is not the worst situation she imagined.
They were lovers in high school, but Nan Xiaojin’s complete departure overnight also announced the end of this relationship. The sudden change at that time was like a disaster for Nan Xiaojin, she couldn’t face it rationally, and she couldn’t imagine where the future was.
Under such circumstances, she couldn’t hope for the future of herself and Zhao Yi at all, and of course she didn’t want to drag Zhao Yi all the time. In that letter, it was directly stated that he broke up with Zhao Yi.
But no matter how big a hurdle is, it can always be crossed. It was the same bad news as the end of life for Nan Xiaojin at first, and it gradually faded with the passage of time.
Although their families have a lot of hatreds, they are all business circles after all. Her father also jumped off the building to his death. A pair of orphans and widows fled to a foreign land with over a million dollars. No one wanted to waste so much effort to find them. What’s more, Zhao Yi used so much energy to find them.
“Where have you been all these years?” Zhao Yi couldn’t help asking.
“My mother and I went to country R first, and then to country Y. By the way, I’m a sophomore now, and I’m a year younger than you.” Nan Xiaojin said.
Because she did not take the college entrance examination, during that time, she was overwhelmed and gloomy, and it was not until the second year that she had the energy to apply for admission.
“Then how are you doing?”
“It’s pretty good. At first, it felt like the sky was falling, but after a while, after accepting it, I felt okay. It’s always like this.” Nan Xiaojin pinned some of her hair that fell to her forehead. Behind his ears, he smiled relievedly.
Although she said this, Zhao Yi knew that she must have suffered a lot.
Because she has changed a lot. Become mature, become vicissitudes, and these all need to be replaced by suffering.
After Nan Xiaojin finished speaking, she looked at Zhao Yi, hesitated again and again, and finally asked the question she had always wanted to ask: “It’s you, do you have a girlfriend now?”
Yes, that was her worst plan.
She likes Zhao Yi so much. When I was in high school, I was willing to fly into the flames, but fortunately, it was half a winner in the end. But the change came too suddenly, and this beautiful dream was shattered at the beginning.
Even if she went to Dianpei to travel to a foreign country, she never forgot the boy. She came this time with a desperate idea. If Zhao Yi already has a girlfriend, she would like to see him from a distance. If not… she will do her best to fight for it.
“No.” Zhao Yi said.
Nan Xiaojin’s eyes lit up, and she asked a second question: “Then… do you have someone you like?”
Zhao Yi’s face flashed before his eyes.
He lowered his head and rubbed his eyebrows. These days, because of this incident, his life has been messed up.
“I don’t know if I like it or not.” He finally told Nan Xiaojin.
It means that there are people who like it, but not sure if they like it or not.
Nan Xiaojin’s heart sank slightly.
Zhao Yi is a dull person, she has always known that. Therefore, the so-called “I don’t know if I like it or not” may mean like it.
But then she cheered herself up again. At least not yet together, indicating that she still has a chance!
After all, Zhao Yi also liked her, and now it seems that although that love has faded, it has not completely disappeared.
The two chatted for a long time and exchanged their current contact information. Zhao Yi also learned that Nan Xiaojin is now living in the dormitory of J University.
It was almost evening, Zhao Yi sent Nan Xiaojin back to the dormitory.
After that, he lived alone, sat on the sofa, looked up at the empty apartment, and sat alone all night.
The appearance of Nan Xiaojin was like an anchor, pulling him back from being pulled by the wind and waves and about to go to the undetectable sea area.
Yes, he used to like girls, and now seeing Nan Xiaojin, the throbbing and liking he once had seemed to come back. They are so beautiful and upright, and they are sunflowers that grow recklessly under the sun. Not those dark, rootless moss. And those lost to the same sex… Maybe it’s different.
He didn’t know whether the sea area meant treasure or abyss.
But he can’t afford that bad side result, that surprise, and if he’s going to risk the worst…he’d rather stay the way he is.
The day is almost dawn, and the dawn is beginning to shine through.
Zhao Yi stood up, looked at the cold and quiet apartment, and went upstairs.
When Chaoci came back, he should explain to Chaoci.
Can’t live here any longer. Two people live together, but avoid each other, which makes the relationship even more rigid and impossible to face. It’s better to just move out. After the two calm down with each other and meet occasionally, it will be more conducive to the recovery of this relationship.
…
Zhao Yi waited for a day to say goodbye to the court.
Watching the sun rise, it gradually disappeared into the West Mountain.
My mind, which had calmed down because I had made a plan, gradually became irritable again. In the past, although Chao Ci liked to hang out, at most he would not return overnight. Twice in a row like today, but never before.
Chao Ci was dressed in twilight, and came back in a hurry and embarrassed.
He was still wearing new and neat clothes, and there seemed to be no difference in appearance. Except for the hurried pace and the sullen look.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Zhao Yi sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
