God Made Incompatibility - Chapter 29
The hickey left by Sheng Jinshu on her body faded little by little, and Meng Wanji could perceive the relationship between Sheng Jinshu and her, and it became less and less.
They will still protect each other’s dignity in front of the students, and occasionally meet in the corridor, nodding in greeting. But in the dormitory, they hardly even touch each other.
Occasionally, when Meng Wanji went back in the evening to supervise the repair, she would hear vague chatter and laughter coming from the closed door of Sheng Jinshu. She was recording, or broadcasting FT with friends online, Meng Wanji could guess.
She always had a wonderful life, and their relationship never seemed to affect Sheng Jinshu’s mood.
Meng Wanji was not surprised, just a little self-deprecating. When Sheng Jinshu asked her back that morning, “Are you sure?”, she had a trace of expectation in her heart.
Thinking about it, Sheng Jinshu had a good bed, took care of her face, and helped her lift the sedan chair.
On Tuesday in late November, the new teacher Fang Keying celebrated her birthday. Zhang Youlin, who was in the dormitory, wanted to help her celebrate her birthday. She invited a group of teachers who were close to her to eat hot pot in the dormitory. These new teachers have some friendship, and they are among the invitations.
In the evening, she had a short meeting with the head teacher, and it was half past six.
Zhang Youlin opened the door, and as soon as she saw her, she pulled her, smiled and said into the house, “It’s better to come early than to come by chance, Teacher Meng has a good mouth.”
Shouxing Gong Fang Keying answered: “You don’t need to change your shoes, Mr. Meng comes in quickly, the hot pot has just been set up, you came just in time.”
Meng Wanji politely said, “I’ve made everyone wait for a long time.”
She glanced at the living room, and at the dining table, Sheng Jinshu was also there. She took off her trench coat, revealing her slim-fitting half-sleeved thin sweater, and sat in the crowd, as eye-catching as ever. The long-lost eyes met, and for a split second, Sheng Jinshu turned his eyes away.
Meng Wanji also pretended not to see it.
She didn’t bring a gift, she brought a bottle of red wine, Fang Keying took it with both hands, thanked her, and pulled her to sit next to her, facing Sheng Jinshu.
Meng Wanji: “…”
A hot pot meal was neither embarrassing nor embarrassing, Meng Wanji had hardly participated in the topic of chat.
Everyone’s interest is not diminished at all, the more they chat, the more they let go, from the price to the house price, from the car to the child, and finally to inevitably talk about their respective families and objects.
Those with boyfriends were gossiped about what to do to meet their parents, get married, and those without boyfriends, such as Sheng Jinshu, were suddenly pressed by Zhang Youlin: “Mr. Sheng, last time in Hecheng, you said there was someone you wanted to chase, How’s it going, what’s next?”
Meng Wanji lowered her head to bite the fish ball unconsciously.
Sheng Jinshu’s eyes swept across Meng Wanji absently, took a small bite of the rice cake, and said casually, “No more.”
Zhang Youlin exclaimed: “Really? Are you not catching up?”
Sheng Jinshu smiled, noncommittal.
Zhang Youlin sighed: “Then his vision is too high.”
Fang Keying joked: “It’s okay, there is no grass anywhere in the world! The single male teacher in our school is going to be crazy, you don’t know, how many people have asked me about you before and after. Last time my college classmates I passed by our school on a business trip and waited for me at the west gate. I didn’t know how to see Mr. Sheng. During the meal, he kept asking me to introduce him. I lied to him that Mr. Sheng was a local and didn’t talk about long-distance relationships. Just give up.”
Everyone couldn’t help laughing, and they all recommended themselves to introduce someone to Sheng Jinshu.
Meng Wanji bit the fish ball quietly, and the soup inside burned her tongue.
Finally, all the side dishes were wiped out, and the hot pot game could be disbanded. Everyone helped Fang Keying and Zhang Youlin tidy up the dining table and dormitory, and went back to their dormitories.
On the eighth floor, only Meng Wanji and Sheng Jinshu were about to get off. The elevator opened. The two said goodbye to the teacher in the elevator and went out one after the other.
Meng Wanji walked in front, Sheng Jinshu followed leisurely with a windbreaker on his elbows.
The corridor was so quiet that only their footsteps came one after another.
Meng Wanji picked out the key from her satchel in advance. As soon as the dormitory door arrived, she stretched out the key and inserted it into the hole. The usual right turn, suffocating – the key doesn’t move.
This usually happens occasionally, but Meng Wanji didn’t take it to heart. If something has been used for a long time, it is inevitable that it is not as easy to use as it was at the beginning. Generally, it is enough to twist it twice more. But tonight I don’t know if I’m too impatient, or if the door lock is against her, and it’s useless for her to turn it.
Ears started to burn with anger.
A hand suddenly stretched out behind him, the palm was soft and warm, and tightly wrapped around her hand.
Meng Wanji’s heart beat like a deer for a moment.
Sheng Jinshu seemed to sigh, but it seemed like he didn’t. She didn’t say anything, half pressed against her, clasped her five fingers with her five fingers, and lifted the key up.
The sweet scent of perfume mixed with the smell of hot pot stirred Meng Wanji’s nerves. Meng Wanji froze and did not dare to move, her fingertips tightening while holding the key.
Sheng Jinshu found the angle, turned it gently, and opened the security door.
Meng Wanji’s breathing was unsteady.
Sheng Jinshu seemed to be approaching.
Meng Wanji loosened her fingers slightly.
Sheng Jinshu slowly released his hand.
Meng Wanji couldn’t see her expression, and didn’t dare to look back at her expression. She breathed a sigh of relief, took out the key, and pushed the door in as if nothing had happened.
Sheng Jinshu looked at her slender and indifferent back, and the five fingers that fell on the skirt were slightly clenched, her desire was soaring, and her chest seemed to be blocked by something.
She didn’t understand how someone so cold could have such a tender and warm attitude that night.
Even more do not understand, nor is it necessary to talk about this love, why do you care so much.
Meng Wanji seemed to be unconscious, bending over to change her shoes.
There were no footsteps behind him until the security door “clicked” to break the silence.
Meng Wanji turned sideways and found that Sheng Jinshu had not come in.
she left.
Meng Wanji stared fixedly at the closed door, and realized with hindsight, was Sheng Jinshu angry?
This speculation was vaguely confirmed the next day when the school announced the grouping list of teachers participating in the second-year high school research trip next week.
The head teacher of each class, as the first person in charge, must participate, and the rest of the subjects are teachers, who negotiate and sign up voluntarily, as long as there are two teachers in a class to lead the team.
Sheng Jinshu signed up to participate. On the list, Sheng Jinshu was placed in the fifth class with Meng Wanji.
Nian Duanchang said: “Teachers who have objections can consult with me in private.”
Not long after the words fell, Sheng Jinshu got up and followed him out of the office.
In the evening, it was finally sent to the group list of the second grade group of senior high school, and the position of Sheng Jinshu was replaced with the history teacher who was in charge of the sixth class.
Meng Wanji’s mouse unconsciously selected the three words “Sheng Jinshu” in the document, and the bright and unrestrained smile she always had when facing others these days appeared in her mind. She didn’t quite understand why she was suddenly angry.
She was shaken for a moment, but her reason had not allowed her to have any more expectations for Sheng Jinshu.
Facts have also proved that she really shouldn’t have it.
At noon on Thursday, she went to the cafeteria with Chai Meng and Liang Ning for dinner. As soon as she left the office building, she saw Sheng Jinshu and Zhang Youlin who were walking a little further in front of them. She was also pointed out by Zhang Youlin on the KTV that day to Sheng Jin. Tang Yicheng, who has a good impression of the book.
Liang Ning also saw it, and couldn’t help gossip: “Why do you see Xiao Tang going to dinner with two girls these days? Which one is he chasing?”
Chai Mengmai Tai: “Your eyesight is not very good, of course it’s Teacher Sheng. After Xiao Zhang broke the news of Teacher Sheng’s breakup, many male teachers were gearing up to get ready. I don’t know how Xiao Tang bought it. Teacher Zhang, let her be willing to be a wingman and invite Teacher Sheng to eat together every day.”
Meng Wanji lowered her eyes, there was no fluctuation in her heart, she just felt that they were so noisy.
After a lunch, she didn’t digest it.
In the last class in the afternoon, she changed the quiz in the office alone, and Xi Weiting knocked on the door.
“Teacher, can I come in?”
Class five should be in physical education class.
Meng Wanji nodded.
Xi Weiting stood beside her and asked, “Teacher, can you help write a greeting card for Qianqian.” She was collecting birthday wishes for Yu Xingqian and wanted to give her a surprise.
Meng Wanji naturally did not shirk.
It seems that after having dinner together in her dormitory with Sheng Jinshu during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the friendship between the two little girls quickly warmed up and soon became inseparable. At first, teachers from other subjects also expressed concern to Meng Wanji, and asked her to pay attention to Yu Xingqian. It is okay to make friends, but her mind should still focus on her studies. They all cherish their talents, worrying that Yu Xingqian is still a child in the end, undetermined, and playing around with Xi Weiting, her grades will easily be taken down. Xi Weiting’s life can be won while lying down, but Yu Xingqian is different, she can change her destiny by relying on her grades.
Meng Wanji was worried for a while after being ordered by Teacher Keren. Unexpectedly, not only did Yu Xingqian’s grades not drop in the monthly exam, but Xi Weiting’s grades rose a lot.
Several teachers were relieved at once. Meng Wanji is also happy to see a positive relationship.
She wrote the greeting card and remembered to remind: “It’s okay to celebrate a birthday, but don’t make it too late.”
She remembers the birthdays of each student in the memo, and will send a small cake after the evening self-study. She received a reminder two days before Yu Xingqian’s birthday, and she was going to class the next day.
Xi Weiting responded obediently: “No, I was just going to sing a birthday song for her in the dormitory, blow a candle and eat a cake. We will go out to celebrate officially on the weekend.”
Meng Wanji warned: “Pay attention to safety.”
Xi Weiting saluted mischievously: “Yes!”
Meng Wanji smiled lightly.
Just as he was about to start another line of writing, Sheng Jinshu didn’t know where he came back from. He appeared at the door of the office with an umbrella in one hand and a small bag of snacks in the other.
Xi Weiting has sharp eyes, and greets warmly as soon as she sees it: “Sheng Sheng, you are here just in time, write a greeting card for me.”
Sheng Jinshu has a close relationship with the students, and some of the students talk to her just a little bit.
She glanced over the two people who were sitting and standing, without stopping, and walked to her desk calmly: “Are you asking for help?”
Xi Weiting immediately repented, took another blank greeting card to Sheng Jinshu’s side, and offered it with both hands, respectfully: “I beg the beautiful and kind-hearted teacher Xiao Sheng to help the villain write a greeting card, okay?”
Sheng Jinshu raised his eyebrows, smiled, and reached out to take it.
Meng Wanji concentrated on writing her own.
After finishing writing, she got up to get the water, and suddenly heard Xi Weiting ask with a smile, “Where did we Shengsheng come from? I said at the same table that Mr. Tang from the third class is chasing you, is it true?”
Sheng Jinshu didn’t admit or deny it, just tapped Xi Weiting’s forehead with the pen: “When you memorize words, you should be as enthusiastic as when you study gossip.”
Xi Weiting said, “Ouch”, to please: “If words are as interesting as gossip, we will definitely do it.”
Sheng Jinshu smiled softly.
Meng Wanji threw the effervescent tablet into the thermos cup and was fascinated by the repeatedly exploding bubbles.
The author has something to say: Is the explosion an effervescent tablet (doge face)
