Chasing Summer - Chapter 30

Under the stage, Xu Ting sat next to Chi Yao and muttered:

“Nanxiang Street, is this where you live?”

“It’s great. I also want to have a child. When I was a child, I was the only one at home. Although there are other children in the community, they are not familiar with them.”

“Mr. Lin’s manuscript is very real. I post it out of feeling. It feels much better than the previous ones. I think it will get a good ranking.”

Lin Zhexia’s speeches are mainly narrative. She is actually very interesting in telling stories, and she vividly describes the life in Nanxiang Street.

“Oh,” Xu Ting commented in real time, “I, Lin Shao, fought when I was young, I can’t tell.”

Xu Ting’s thinking is extremely divergent: “But, if Young Master Lin has a boyfriend in the future, will the boyfriend mind you?”

“After all, you two know each other as well as one.”

“It is said that male girlfriends are hated by others…”

When he said this, he was interrupted by Chi Yao: “Have you finished?”

“?”

“Shut up after you finish speaking, it’s noisy to my ears.”

“…”

Xu Ting pursed his lips, shrank back, and didn’t talk to Chi Yao again.

Chi Yao was sitting in a corner, and the light was not good.

Half of his face was blocked by shadows, so he couldn’t see his expression clearly.

The person on the stage gave a speech just now and took a look at him. The girl was wearing a clean school uniform. The trouser legs of the school uniform that were too long were folded up, revealing her thin and slender ankles. She was nervous at first, but halfway through the speech, she became more and more fluent.

The clear and somewhat lukewarm voice was amplified and transmitted through the microphone.

The speech is over.

He clapped along with those around him.

The teacher of Class 1, Grade 2 looked back at the game watching situation of his class in the front, and turned his head back with confidence when he saw that they were orderly.

However, what he didn’t know was that after listening to the contestant’s speech, his class Chi Yao immediately leaned back, closed his eyes and said to Xu Ting, “I’ll sleep for a while, help me keep an eye on the teacher.”

Xu Ting: “You don’t listen to the ones behind?”

Chi Yao lacked interest: “What’s so interesting about this kind of speech?”

Xu Ting: “…”

Then you just listened.

In the evening before school, self-study class.

Tang Shuxuan came from the teacher’s office with a stack of things, one of which was a yellow certificate, and she gave the certificate to Lin Zhexia: “Your certificate has been issued, here it is, the first prize!”

Although the ranking has been announced at the end of the competition, the feeling of actually receiving the award is still very different.

Lin Zhexia took it: “Thank you.”

She added, “You played very well, too.”

Tang Shuxuan smiled: “Don’t comfort me, I don’t care much about the ranking, compared to the ranking—” she said, lowering her voice, “I’m secretly telling you, after I stepped down, the senior praised me.”

Chen Lin interrupted and said, “Yes.”

Tang Shuxuan smiled: “He said that I performed well, and he was happy for me. Rounding up, I will marry him tomorrow.”

Lin Zhexia: “…This is a bit too much.”

But no matter what, the end of the game should be celebrated, so Tang Shuxuan suggested: “Shall we have a dinner together tonight? There are a few restaurants near the school, and call a certain surname Chi, and we have dinner together ?”

Lin Zhexia thought for a while: “I have no problem, but he may not be sure, I will ask him.”

She secretly sent a message to Chi Yao.

Sure enough, the other person quickly came back with two words: don’t go.

Lin Zhexia typed and sent two sentences.

– how dare you reject me

-Do you know whose invitation you declined?

Chigou:?

Lin Zhexia: What you rejected was the first place in the speech contest of the 10th Cheng’an No. 2 Middle School.

After Lin Zhexia sent out these words, there was a long silence on the other side.

About half a minute later, Chi Yao came back with a few words.

– two minutes

– wake up by yourself

Lin Zhexia: “…”

You are out of your mind.

After Tang Shuxuan finished handing out other people’s homework, she asked, “Did he get back to you?”

Lin Zhexia put away her mobile phone, raised her head and said, “I think it’s better not to call him, he may not be worthy of eating.”

Even though she said that, she still went to wait for Chi Yao at the door of Class 1 when school was over.

Class one is dragging the class today.

Lin Zhexia waited outside for nearly ten minutes, until the math teacher in their class shouted: “Okay, let’s finish class.”

As soon as the voice fell, the whole classroom seemed to be pressed the start button. Many people had already packed their things, and rushed out of the classroom with their schoolbags on their backs—

Lin Zhexia waited at the corner of the corridor with a certificate rolled into a stick shape in his hand, until Chi Yao and Xu Ting walked out from the back door of the classroom without haste.

She wanted to scare Chi Yao, and suddenly jumped out from the corner: “Chi Yao.”

But Chi Yao was not frightened by her at all, he just raised his eyes slightly and glanced at her.

She deliberately shook the award in her hand away, wanting to show off, but she was too embarrassed to say it directly, so she made a detour: “Too much homework today, the schoolbag is full, hey, I can only hold it in my hand like this.”

Knowing her intentions, Chi Yao didn’t even want to give her a look.

Lin Zhexia: “It’s so troublesome, I still have to hold it. In fact, winning the award is just a false name, and it is not necessary to specially issue this kind of award certificate.”

Chi Yao: “Annoying?”

Lin Zhexia nodded.

Chi Yao pointed to the trash can next to him: “Then you throw it away.”

“…”

Lin Zhexia was silent for a moment, then said, “Aren’t you surprised?”

Chi Yao: “Why am I surprised?”

Lin Zhexia: “When I came on stage, I didn’t memorize the one I rehearsed on the weekend. I changed the draft overnight, so you should be surprised by my talent.”

Chi Yao took out the phone casually, then turned the screen of the phone to her, pressed the switch on the side, and the screen of the phone suddenly lit up—

“See the time on it?”

The screen reads 6:18.

Chi Yao held the phone and said, “It’s been more than half an hour, and you’re still not awake.”

Lin Zhexia: “…”

Lin Zhexia turned to Xu Ting: “It must be very hard for you to be friends with this kind of person.”

Xu Ting held back his laughter, coughed and said, “Ah yes, it was very hard.”

Lin Zhexia: “I understand you. If you are friends with this kind of person, you should want to claim compensation for mental damage from him every day.”

Xu Ting tried to save the situation, gave Lin Zhexia some face, and said as he walked: “Lin Shao, the certificate in your hand is too dazzling, the light almost hurts my eyes, let me appreciate it carefully, you actually took it First prize—you are too good.”

Lin Zhexia’s vanity was satisfied: “Be low-key and low-key.”

As she spoke, she found that Chi Yao was looking at her.

Chi Yao looked away: “Both of you people whose combined IQ may not exceed 100, stay away from me when walking.”

Because Xu Ting was able to flatter.

So Lin Zhexia also invited him to have dinner together: “Tang Shuxuan has already ordered the dishes, why don’t you come too?”

There are many restaurants off campus.

Although No. 2 Middle School strictly forbids leaving the school gate during school hours, many people still choose to eat near the school after school, so a row of restaurants opened across the street.

When Lin Zhexia dragged Chi Yao and the others in, several cold dishes were already on the table.

Tang Shuxuan: “I was afraid that the food would be served too slowly, so I ordered a few dishes first, and I haven’t ordered the rest yet. Just in time, you guys came to look at the menu and order more.”

The menu was passed to Chi Yao first.

Holding the pen, he lowered his head for a few glances, ticked it off a few times, and handed her the menu.

Lin Zhexia took it, and then she found that when she was scanning the menu, there was already a slightly scribbled tick in front of every dish she wanted to tick.

Exactly like.

These ticks are the same as those she made herself.

But she knew it was completely different, because the handwriting on the paper in her hand was completely different from hers.

“Why not?” Chen Lin asked from the side.

Because she ordered everything she wanted.

This cognition did not know why she felt some inexplicable emotions.

She handed the pen and paper to Chen Lin in a panic: “Look first, I don’t have anything to add.”

Chen Lin took it without thinking too much: “Oh, let me have a look then.”

They sat by the window, and there were many students passing by with their schoolbags outside the large glass window.

In the middle of the meal, Chen Lin said in a low voice: “Is this the treatment you get when you go out to eat with someone who killed a whole page on the forum at the beginning of school?”

Lin Zhexia was busy nibbling on the chicken wings, biting the chicken wings and looked at her, not understanding what she meant: “?”

Chen Lin pointed out the glass window with her chopsticks: “Just ten minutes ago, out of ten people who walked past, nine of them would look at us.”

“…”

“Such an exaggeration.”

“No exaggeration,” Chen Lin said, “I haven’t used exaggeration yet, just a simple statement.”

Everyone else at the dinner table was busy chatting about next week’s sports meeting.

Tang Shuxuan: “I heard in the teacher’s office that we will have a sports meeting next week, and it will be held together with other schools.”

Xu Ting: “I also heard from the seniors that our school’s sports meeting will indeed be held with other schools, and it will be held for two days without class. It seems that this year it will be held with the school next door.”

“The school next door?”

“It’s the experimental middle school.”

“…”

After eating the chicken wings, Lin Zhexia was almost full, so she put down her chopsticks and listened to their chat.

Chen Lin was asking, “Why do you want to go with other schools?”

Xu Ting: “It’s rare for our school to open once, and we rarely organize activities. I guess we want to make it bigger and stronger and create brilliance in one go.”

Tang Shuxuan: “That makes sense.”

Lin Zhexia listened, her thoughts went astray, thinking of what Chen Lin had secretly said to her, she couldn’t help but glance at the person sitting next to her.

Chi Yao’s position happened to be facing the big glass window, and he didn’t join in the conversation. The waiter had just served egg custard to everyone, and he was fiddled with the spoon in the bowl.

He lowered his eyes, his eyelashes were like a shadow covering his eyes, and even the line of his jaw was alienated.

Lin Zhexia looked at it, thinking nonchalantly:

If it’s this face, it’s really not an exaggeration.

Just as she was thinking, the person she was peeping at also looked up and said to her, “Give me your bowl.”

Lin Zhexia realized later, and pointed to the untouched custard in front of her: “This?”

Chi Yao was noncommittal.

Lin Zhexia felt a little outrageous: “Why are you like this—”

“How am I?”

“Don’t be too greedy, you already have one, I still want to eat this.”

Chi Yao leaned back, and said casually: “What should I do, I just want to eat two.”

Lin Zhexia: “Then you go eat Xu Ting’s.”

Xu Ting who was inexplicably poked: “?”

Then, Lin Zhexia said: “Or, you starve to death.”

Chi Yao frowned: “Oh, I’m starving to death.”

After finishing speaking, he directly reached out and took her bowl of egg custard in front of him. Lin Zhexia was about to say that he was going too far. After letting go of the bowl with his hand, he took the white porcelain that he had been holding the spoon for a long time. The bowl was placed in front of her.

There is also an untouched egg custard in a white porcelain bowl.

But it may not be appropriate to say that it has not moved.

Because the layer of green onion that was originally sprinkled on top of the egg custard has been picked off.

She doesn’t like chopped green onions very much.

It’s not completely inedible, but if there is plenty of time, the green onions are usually picked out.

When Chi Yao was eating at her house when he was a child, he had seen her pick chopped green onions.

That time, Lin He’s hands were probably shaking, and she sprinkled too much. She picked for a long time, and finally sighed: “I’m so tired.”

Chi Yao’s words were not pleasant as always: “Then don’t eat.”

Lin Zhexia has shown a potential to be very aware of current affairs since she was a child: “…you will be hungry if you don’t eat, I will take a rest and continue to pick.”

However, when she was resting, Chi Yao picked up the chopsticks she had just put down.

Lin Zhexia: “Don’t steal from me.”

“…”

After a while.

She asked again: “Are you picking chopped green onions for me?”

At that time, Chi Yao said disdainfully: “Who wants to help you choose, I don’t want someone to sigh while eating.”

…

Maybe it’s because I think about my childhood.

Lin Zhexia looked at the bowl of egg custard in front of her, as if someone poked her heart very lightly.

It should be because of the old things in childhood.

Lin Zhexia strengthened this assumption in her heart.

Otherwise, she couldn’t find any other reason to explain her mood at the moment.

Lin Zhexia quickly pulled away from her memories, held the bowl of egg custard and said, “I was so offended just now. It’s my villain’s heart that judges a gentleman’s belly. I don’t really mean to want you to starve to death. Everyone wants you to have enough to eat.”

Chi Yao looked too lazy to talk to her.

He leaned back again, and casually pinched the knuckles of his fingers that had just been retracted: “Shut up and eat your meal.”
