The Younger Brother Next Door is a School Grass - Chapter 32
“I… Hi…”
“Lu Xi, don’t make up classes for the time being this month.”
Does she blame him for getting her to be at the same table?
Unlikely, she didn’t seem angry when she mentioned the change of seats.
…So, she guessed what he was going to say and indirectly rejected him.
Lu Xi remained sitting in the chair, her dark brown eyes dim and bleak.
The weather is always particularly suitable at such moments. In the winter, a large cloud of dark clouds suddenly gathered, and raindrops smashed on the windows and splashed into the house.
The floor beside Lu Xi’s feet was wet and coldly invaded.
Finally remembered that there were uncollected clothes on the balcony. When he got up irritably, he accidentally knocked over the glass.
His hand quickly lifted the cup, most of the water poured out, and Lu Si pulled a paper towel to wipe the water marks on the cuffs.
The water droplets on the table hit the ground ticking.
After wiping for a long time, the paper towels shrunk into a ball, Lu Xi still lowered his eyes, repeating mechanical movements continuously.
The paper ball was rubbed into crumbs, and the fine scum was stuck on the dark cloth, a little embarrassed.
Hold.
Lu Xi threw the worn-out paper ball into the trash basket and grabbed the phone in the drawer.
He must finish speaking today.
His slender fingers quickly typed words on the mobile phone’s virtual keyboard, with a decisive determination not to hit the south wall.
The complete sentence is sent out.
Lu Xi clenched his teeth and waited while holding his mobile phone.
However, without waiting for Zhou Sisi’s reply, she first waited for the scolding of Ms. Xu Xuelin, who came home to adjust the shift.
“Why don’t you close the kitchen window? Brat, the balcony window is not closed—why don’t you take your clothes?”
“Squeak! Lu Si! What are you doing in the room?”
“Hey, you **** playing with mobile phones, don’t you know it’s raining? What are you doing like a pillar?” Xu Xuelin raised her hand and twisted Lu Xi’s ear in annoyance.
Lu Xi had to bow her head with strength, “… let go.”
“Are there any ear problems?” Xu Xuelin hummed, “Did you hear what I said?”
Lu Xi weakly said, “I heard it. Yes, I forgot to close the window and put away my clothes.”
“Why are you stubborn?” Xu Xuelin let go, a little worried, “Is not feeling well?”
Lu Xi: “No.”
“Not enough money?”
“no.”
Xu Xuelin: “Then why does it look like a water-deficient cabbage?”
Lu Xi: “…Mom, you go out, I want to rest.”
“Okay, rest and rest.” Xu Xuelin added, “I have enough rest. I need to read books and write homework.”
“Oh.” Lu Xi closed the door.
***
Turning off the special lunch break alarm on weekends, Zhou Sisi noticed the notification bar, prompting three WeChat messages.
Lu Xi: I like you (12:13)
Lu Xi: Zhou Sisi (12:15)
Lu Xi: Give me a reply, okay? (14:13)
It turned out to be vaguely guessed.
Zhou Sisi pressed her lips halfway, and didn’t know how to reply for a while.
She would not foolishly think that the “likes” he said were likes between sisters and brothers or friends.
It seemed as if the concealed window screen was rolled away by the gust of wind, and some strange trivial things that hadn’t been paid attention to or observed before were explained.
She accidentally fell asleep on the table while supplementing her English, and her face was so warm and short that she suspected it was an illusion…
In the dimly lit alleys, he used her bicycle to pass through again and again…
Various breakfasts with residual warmth lying on the desk of the classroom in the morning…
There was a child skipping rope in a household above, and a heavy bang came from the ceiling, covering Zhou Sisi’s unusual heartbeat.
No, this is not possible.
Not to mention that they are in high school, under the age of eighteen, she is still his half sister, if Aunt Xu knows that he is happy…
“Don’t like me”
Typed word by word, Zhou Sisi’s finger stopped on the “send” button for a moment.
Then slowly backspace to delete.
The other end of WeChat.
Lu Xi looked at the “The other party is typing…” that finally appeared at the top of the chat box, and couldn’t help but relax. But after a while, the prompt disappeared and no message from the other party was received.
Every minute and every second of waiting is infinitely hard to endure.
He even has the urge to make a voice call directly.
Zhou Sisi: I’m sorry
Lu Xi responded quickly: “What are you sorry for?”
Zhou Sisi: I don’t like you
Zhou Sisi: From now on, you can find someone else to make up lessons
“Heh—” Isn’t this quick to type?
Lu Xi grabbed her forehead, put her hand on the brow bone and half-closed eyelids, and leaned her head back against the hard wall.
Knowing that the chances of being rejected by her are 99.9%… Why is the throat and heart so blocked when this moment comes?
…
After the rain, it didn’t rain for a long time.
The sky was gray, the air was dry and cold, and the days passed faster and faster.
Red lanterns are hung on the roadside trees and the gates of the residential quarters to brighten up the monotonous winter.
The new year is coming.
On the second day of New Year’s Day, Zhou Sisi accidentally caught a cold and caught a cold on the first day of his aunt’s visit.
Without telling Chen Cui, who was busy working overtime, she drank Banlangen twice and poured a few large glasses of hot water, but the symptoms were still menacing.
Dizziness, nasal congestion, and frequent coughing made Zhou Sisi’s chest and abdomen faintly painful.
Putting on a cotton coat and tightly wrapped a scarf, she coughed and opened the door to the community hospital to see a doctor.
The temples rose up and down, Zhou Sisi locked the door, turned around, and faced Lu Xi who hadn’t known when he came out of the house.
It was a little dark in the corridor after five o’clock in the afternoon.
The door of his house was not closed, and the sparse lights overflowed, dividing the light and dark in the corridor.
Most of the boy was sunk in the shadows, he was tall, and he didn’t seem to have any expression on his face.
Zhou Sisi nodded at him, then immediately retracted his gaze and walked to the stairs.
“Cough…cough cough…” Coughing uncontrollably.
“Are you sick?” There was a slight dumbness in the clear voice of the young Guan Lai.
Zhou Sisi replied from the time of coughing, “Small feeling…cough cough…little cold.”
Lu Xi frowned, her eyelids drooping to cover her emotional eyes, “I’ll take you to the hospital.”
Zhou Sisi subconsciously refused: “No, I can…”
“When are you going to hide from me?” Lu Xi suddenly took a step forward.
Zhou Sisi’s shoulders stiffened, and his lips were pursed, “…nothing.”
Although she and Lu Xi live in the same community and go to the same high school, the classrooms are in different buildings. In addition, she lives on Monday to Friday and rarely goes out on weekends. The time to go to school on Sundays is also different. According to reason, The two would rarely meet each other.
“No?” Lu Xi pulled the corner of her lips, “liar.”
Forty-eight days, he hadn’t seen her so close for a total of forty-eight days.
Several times when he was about to walk in front of her, she quickly walked away from the other direction. Oh, as if he was a scourge.
Zhou Sisi: “…”
She did avoid him a little bit.
Lu Xi: “Wait, I’ll change my shoes.”
Zhou Sisi: “You don’t need to…”
Lu Xi: “Dare you go and try?”
Zhou Sisi coughed and coughed, covering her nose and lips with Baixiu’s hands.
Lu Xi went back into the house, and soon came out again, holding a bunch of keys in his hand, “Go.” Take the lead down the stairs.
Arrived in the garage below.
Seeing Lu Xi squeezed the remote control lock in his hand, he pressed a white car to light up.
Zhou Sisi frowned slightly and said, “You don’t have a driver’s license. Change the tram. I brought the car keys.”
“It’s windy when riding a tram.” Lu Xie said.
Zhou Sisi coughed a few times, “It’s okay.”
“Cough like this, dare to blow the air?” Lu Xi’s face was a little cold, and he turned out the mobile phone in his jacket pocket and operated it a few times with one hand. “Have a taxi online.”
“Well, thank you.” Zhou Sisi said warmly, “You go back first.”
Almost unable to hold back to grab her wrist, Lu Xiwo tightened his jaw fiercely, “I said, take you to the hospital.”
