Back To the Past To Fall In Love - Chapter 26
When Xu Ziran naturally woke up at 6 o’clock the next day, her first reaction was to think that there is a benefit to this system, and it actually adjusted her hopeless biological clock to such a healthy regularity.
But she didn’t get up the first time, but stared at the ceiling in a daze.
She felt like she had a dream last night.
It was not a good dream, so when I woke up in the morning, I was sweating all over my body and I felt bad.
She looked at the two quilts on the bed and concluded that her quilt was too thick.
After thinking of a reasonable reason, Xu Ziran turned over and got up, went downstairs in his pajamas and poured some hot water.
I don’t know if the nightmare was too energy-consuming. Xu Ziran felt very hungry. She rummaged in the refrigerator and the cabinet for a while, and finally cooked some noodles and fried a poached egg. the rising sun.
While cooking the noodles, Xu Ziran tried to think about the dream he had last night, and after sure enough, he looked up to see the scenery outside the window.
Then she was so frightened that she almost flipped the pot.
Tian Jiaqi was clinging to the window and looking inside, probably because she was discovered, she bent her eyes and smiled, waving her hand like Xu Ziran.
Xu Ziran: “…”
When Xu Ziran pulled Tian Jiaqi in, he squeezed her hand by the way, and found that her palm was cold, so he said, “Why are you freezing outside in the daytime?”
Tian Jiaqi wrinkled her nose, pulled her hand back into her pocket, rolled her eyes and looked into the kitchen, and said, “Cumin, you can cook, and you can get married.”
Xu Ziran knew that Tian Jiaqi was joking now, but I don’t know if it was because the other party said this many times in the future, not joking, Xu Ziran felt a little uncomfortable when he heard it, so he replied coldly: “I learned to do it. Rice is not for marriage.”
Tian Jiaqi noticed Xu Ziran’s unhappiness, although she couldn’t figure out why, she still said embarrassingly, “That’s right.”
Xu Ziran glanced at Tian Jiaqi, who was wearing a lemon-yellow coat with lace to the knees, but a pair of loose slacks. This aesthetic look is simply spicy.
But even in such a dress, because there is a young and beautiful face pressing down, it is actually acceptable.
Tian Jiaqi has short hair. This is because the junior high school she and Xu Ziran were not allowed to have long hair. After entering high school, Xu Ziran gradually began to have long hair, making her hair grow to the point where it now exceeds her ears, but Tian Jiaqi has always had short hair with her ears exposed.
But such short hair would not make her look like a boy at all, on the contrary, she was more charming and charming. The big eyes with single eyelid were like a clear stream of autumn water, and the thin eyebrows were gentle and well-behaved.
So what Xu Ziran didn’t understand ten years later, apart from Tian Jiaqi becoming like that for a man, and why she had to cut her double eyelids.
She felt that Tian Jiaqi was beautiful enough, and Tian Jiaqi also knew that she was beautiful.
Boys who have liked Tian Jiaqi since junior high school are like crucian carp crossing the river. Even if Tian Jiaqi does nothing but walks in front of them, they will come over and bow down under her pomegranate skirt.
Tian Jiaqi has always had the self-consciousness of a beautiful girl, and she has never lost confidence.
Tian Jiaqi didn’t know that Xu Ziran’s thoughts were rolling in her mind. She walked to the kitchen and looked at the pot, then turned around and said, “I didn’t eat breakfast either? Can you make me one too?”
When the other party can act coquettishly, the voice is sweet but not greasy.
Xu Ziran gave in.
She gave Tian Jiaqi the noodles and eggs that had been boiled at the beginning, and cooked another one herself.
The other party was not the woman who had no idea what she was thinking ten years later, but a fifteen-year-old girl, who really had nothing to be angry about.
Xu Ziran knew that she was not angry with Tian Jiaqi, she was just fighting with her own standards.
Tian Jiaqi seemed to be really hungry. She ate half of it in one breath, and then she slowed down a little. She raised her head and said, “Auntie told me that you are up early now, and it’s actually true.”
Xu Ziran gave an “um” and said, “What about you, what are you doing up so early?”
Tian Jiaqi said, “Isn’t it obvious, of course I’m here to block you.”
Xu Ziran laughed, the smile was a bit funny, but also a bit like a wry smile.
Tian Jiaqi is sometimes very direct, and Xu Ziran used to appreciate this kind of directness.
Letting Qiu Yurou’s mind turn around a thousand times, it’s easy to be defined by Xu Ziran as squeamish. Xu Ziran feels that no matter what she does, it’s best to be refreshing.
But then she finally realized that looking refreshing and really refreshing are two completely different things.
Xu Ziran’s noodles were also familiar, and while she was serving it, she said lukewarmly, “Oh.”
She didn’t know how to face the current Tian Jiaqi, so she unknowingly used the way she would deal with unfamiliar people in the future.
This attitude is not pleasing, and it can easily scare off some people who see her developed and want to please but are not thick-skinned.
However, Tian Jiaqi is not one of those people.
She came to reconcile with all sincerity. A high school girl who came to seek reconciliation on purpose had gathered enough courage. Now, when she encountered the cold nails that adults are used to, she was suddenly injured.
In the past, Tian Jiaqi and Xu Ziran had a cold war. As long as his attitude softened, Xu Ziran would reconcile with him, but why was he so cold and hard this time?
She was sad in her heart, but she was reluctant to leave. She always felt that if she left today, she might really only be able to go further and further with Xu Ziran.
She went home and thought about it these days, and she felt that she was indeed wrong, and it was really bad to speak ill of others behind her back.
But she also felt that she would have said things like this before, and she would never have been so angry before, but this time Xu Ziran was so angry. Could there be other reasons?
For example, because the person she was talking about was Qiu Yurou?
In Tian Jiaqi’s opinion, this reason is more difficult to accept and more likely than the three disagreements between the two. She has always thought that she and Xu Ziran are the best friends and the most special relationship. Now there is a person in the middle. How can you be willing.
She bit her lip and ate the noodles quietly. When she saw Xu Ziran coming to collect the dishes, she volunteered to say, “Why don’t I wash the dishes.”
Xu Ziran shook his head and was about to speak when he suddenly got stuck.
Because an option appeared in front of her eyes.
[Dear host, aware that the interaction value and intimacy with fixed characters have reached the standard, do you choose a new character to become the second target character? 】
[a, yes, b, no]
Xu Ziran’s hand shook and the bowl almost fell off, so she quickly chose “No”.
And her stunned effort, Tian Jiaqi took the bowl and started to wash the dishes in the sink.
Xu Ziran was no longer polite, because she felt that she needed to be quiet.
what the hell? This system really doesn’t have any ethics.
Like her and Qiu Yurou, it is a mystery that Tian Jiaqi has never been in a relationship. Tian Jiaqi is 100% straight. You can see how sticky she is with her boyfriend in the future. Can you choose?
Also… After all, there are even sofas and pens to choose from.
Xu Ziran calmed down on the spot, and was distracted from the previous sadness and sadness by this stubble, thinking that he really should have a good talk with Tian Jiaqi.
The little girls have put down their airs, and as an adult, they should be more mature.
After all, isn’t it agreed that something needs to be changed?
Seeing that Tian Jiaqi had finished washing the dishes, Xu Ziran said, “Jiaqi, let’s go out for a walk.”
…
While walking in the alley, Xu Ziran saw the **** cat again.
The cat was actually holding revenge. When it saw her, it squinted at her for a while, then turned around and pointed its **** at her, and jumped from the fence to the other side.
When people walk outside, they can still feel that it is a little cold, but the new leaves on the old trees by the road have already sprung up, and they are about to grow.
Xu Ziran looked down at the shadow stretched by the sun on the side of the road. The shadows of her and Tian Jiaqi were both in front, walking side by side.
Xu Ziran suddenly said, “If you had plastic surgery, where would you do it?”
This question came to be inexplicable, Tian Jiaqi asked with a puzzled face, “Plastic surgery?”
Xu Ziran asked, “Have you ever thought about plastic surgery?”
Tian Jiaqi said, “I never thought about it, how scary it is, have you ever thought about it?”
Xu Ziran remembered that it is not ten years later, when all kinds of micro-beauty are blooming everywhere, the current cosmetic surgery is still something in the news and legends, and everyone still has doubts and distrust of this kind of acquired behavior.
When Tian Jiaqi mentions plastic surgery now, she always looks disgusted, which is completely different from that Tian Jiaqi who later mentioned hyaluronic acid and face-lifting needles.
Xu Ziran smiled and thought it was ridiculous to ask this question.
Asking questions before things happen, of course, will not get the answers you imagined.
After a long time, she really wasn’t too angry with what Tian Jiaqi said that day. What she was angry with—or afraid of, was the fate that had already happened in the future.
About to open her mouth, Tian Jiaqi was not as nervous as before. She said, “Well, I will go to the library with you in the afternoon, okay?”
Seeing Tian Jiaqi’s expectant gaze, Xu Ziran felt that she could not refuse, but when Tian Jiaqi still did not face up to the previous problem, she was a little disappointed.
Although she has long known that Tian Jiaqi is used to avoiding all problems, but if she is like this forever, at the last moment, how can she know where the real problem between the two of them is.
But Tian Jiaqi is not someone from ten years from now. Of course she has her current habit, so speaking of it, it is rather strange that she is expecting her to change.
This question should be asked by oneself.
Xu Ziran laughed, and as soon as she laughed, she seemed free and easy, as if there was nothing worth caring about.
It was the first time Tian Jiaqi saw Xu Ziran smile like this, and was stunned for a while.
Then she heard Xu Ziran say, “Do you think the rumor you heard about Qiu Yurou is true?”
Tian Jiaqi is a little short-sighted.
But it’s not deep, both eyes are about two hundred, about fifty degrees apart, so she never wears glasses and can see most of the time.
But this time, when she was so close to Xu Ziran, she felt that Xu Ziran was a little vague.
It was not the first time that she noticed that Xu Ziran had changed, but it was the first time she admitted in her heart that Xu Ziran had indeed changed.
In the past when the two of them chatted, Xu Ziran always seemed to be listening to her. She talked a lot like she was pouring beans. Xu Ziran answered the words casually, but mostly echoed or asked questions, and rarely expressed her views.
Sometimes Tian Jiaqi can find that Xu Ziran doesn’t agree with some of her words, but the other party rarely speaks out, or changes the subject, or falls into silence, or looks at herself and smiles helplessly.
Xu Ziran has always been such a person.
Tian Jiaqi sometimes thinks she is very close, and sometimes thinks she is far away, but there is one thing that everyone agrees with, that is, it is very comfortable to get along with Xu Ziran.
However, Tian Jiaqi realized at this time, ah, the reason why she felt comfortable was because the other party never refuted.
In the misty morning light at the moment, when Xu Ziran looked at herself and expressed her opinion seriously, Tian Jiaqi flinched a little.
She thought, why take it so seriously? Just chatting.
She avoided Xu Ziran’s gaze, and then, in the disappointment on Xu Ziran’s expression caught in the corner of her light, realized that this question must be answered.
Tian Jiaqi rarely thinks about these questions. This time, she started to think hard. She recalled her own words at that time, and Xu Ziran’s words at that time.
She spoke: “…Yes, I’m not sure.”
Her brain was a little confused, and she seemed to understand something: “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t spread such rumors when I’m not sure, but I thought it was nothing…”
She thought that she didn’t like this way of chatting that exposed her shortcomings, but when she said it, she was relieved.
In fact, she also thought about these things last night, but when it came time to say it, she didn’t know how to say it.
Now, she finally spoke up.
Xu Ziran also breathed a sigh of relief.
She didn’t want to push too hard, so she said: “Actually, I know that when you say these words, you are more expressing your emotions than the content, but you must know that those who receive your words may not be able to receive them. Your emotions can only receive the meaning in your words.”
After she said this, she paused, looked at Tian Jiaqi, saw Tian Jiaqi looking at herself in confusion, and hesitated for a while, “Ah?” She didn’t understand what Xu Ziran was trying to express.
Xu Ziran: “…” Forget it, let’s take it slowly.
After they went home at noon and finished eating, Xu Ziran waited for Tian Jiaqi at the door, and the two set off to the library together.
Xu Ziran found that when she acquiesced not to run today, the plan for running tasks was also humanized and reduced to Sunday. It seems that to a certain extent, the plan made by the system can be flexible.
But when she imagined in her mind to reduce her running time to less than three days a week, the system would pop up to remind her that she was not exercising enough and needed rectification.
And when she didn’t see Qiu Yurou this morning, the system was still in [Struggle Mode], and there were no tasks related to Qiu Yurou.
Of course, if she had chosen the option of choosing Tian Jiaqi as the target person in the morning, the situation might have been different.
The thought of this made her tremble.
Set Tian Jiaqi as a love target task? God, she hadn’t even thought about it.
While complaining in his heart, Xu Ziran rushed to the library with Tian Jiaqi, and finally arrived at the agreed time.
The two parked their bicycles in the carport. As soon as Xu Ziran walked out of the carport, he saw Qiu Yurou waiting at the entrance of the old library.
Because when she parked, the system reminded her, and it “swiped” into pink in an instant.
Qiu Yurou was originally smiling, but when she saw Tian Jiaqi, she was obviously stunned.
But she quickly came back to her senses and said hesitantly, “You… hello.”
The relationship between the two was a little unclear, and Qiu Yurou wondered if she should be more enthusiastic.
Tian Jiaqi was also a little embarrassed.
Before, she was about to join all the girls in the class to isolate Qiu Yurou, but now it was herself who wanted to join in vainly.
Before she came, she actually thought that since she was here for Xu Ziran, if Qiu Yurou ignored her, she would also ignore the other party. Unexpectedly, the other party would greet her when they met each other.
My God, does this guy have the guts!
Although she thought so, when Qiu Yurou said hello, Tian Jiaqi took a step forward awkwardly and said, “Hello, Qiu Yurou.”
She thought: Although she has no backbone, she seems to be a good person.
