When He Smiles - Chapter 19
Meng Shengnan always remembered.
In high school years, the old wet said that when you were in middle school, you were eager to graduate and grow up early. When you were in college, you would want to go back in time, so that you can go back to the high school classroom and sit in that position and listen carefully. a lesson.
Now think about it, it’s really a good word.
Today, she shuttles through several teaching buildings with a few books every day, and then she does not have a fixed deskmate. After graduation, she may not even be able to call the teacher’s name. Many times a person ran to the library to borrow books and read, sitting in a place where he could get the sun to spend the whole afternoon.
She was in the dormitory that day turning on the computer to write something, and her roommate Li Taofeng rushed in and called her.
“Meng Shengnan.”
She lifted her head from the book and looked over. The girl kept panting and her cheeks flushed.
“What are you doing in such a hurry?” She couldn’t help but smile.
Li Tao patted his chest, “Someone is looking for you.”
Meng Shengnan frowned, “Who?”
The girl slowly came over, sat on the chair by the table, looked at her and smiled: “You guess first.”
She couldn’t guess.
Li Tao winked his eyes: “A boy.”
Meng Shengnan had closed the computer and stood up, sighing helplessly.
“I can’t guess. I don’t have any acquaintances in this school. Who on earth is looking for me?”
Li Tao looked at her a few times, and then asked, “There are no high school classmates? Or are they from other classes?”
Meng Shengnan shook his head, “You speak directly.”
“Sit down first.” Li Tao pointed to the chair behind her and said calmly: “Boy, it’s okay to let him wait.”
She couldn’t help but twitched the corner of her mouth.
Li Tao hesitated and asked her: “Does the school grass of the Department of Economics and Management know?”
she does not know.
“Do you remember the boy who spoke on the stage at the orientation ceremony a few weeks ago?”
She didn’t see it clearly.
Li Tao slumped on the chair like a discouraged ball, and looked at Meng Shengnan with hatred of iron and steel, his appearance was utterly straightforward. The girl took a deep breath, paused, and said, “Do you know who stopped me at the door of the dormitory, it’s him.”
Meng Shengnan thought for a while and asked, “What is his name?”
Li Tao covered his mouth, squeezing a few unclear words between his teeth: “I can’t say.”
She was speechless.
“Then how do I know who it is when I go out without knowing it?”
Li Tao said: “He knows you.”
Knowing what was going on, she went out and walked out along the promenade. The door of the building is facing the sun, and the light falls on the ground, warm and soft. It was exactly two or three o’clock in the afternoon, and there were almost no students walking outside. She stood at the intersection and looked around.
Someone behind her patted her lightly.
“Hi.”
She turned around slowly and was taken aback for a moment. The boy laughed like the sun at eight or nine o’clock, and his voice was mild and unbelievable. It seems that it was the door of Chen Si’s house that day, one inside and one outside. He looked down at her intently, serious and gentle.
“Journalism, Meng Shengnan.” He said again.
Meng Shengnan was in a trance for a while, and he couldn’t speak.
“you you–“
He grinned badly, “Don’t remember?”
Meng Shengnan frowned vigorously.
“Aunt Chen’s house, I asked you where you took the test, you said Zhongnan.” He helped her recall each sentence, and then asked: “Do you think of it now?”
She smiled embarrassedly.
“Lu Sibei.” He stretched out his hand.
Meng Shengnan raised his eyes, smiled, and held him with warm palms.
Released his hand, Lu Sibei asked, “Go to the playground?”
She couldn’t refuse, so she agreed. Later, Li Tao explained that boys were not allowed to tell her his name, and that was the first time he and her officially met. That day, Meng Shengnan asked him how he found her. The boy smiled and said that Meng Shengnan from the journalism department had no other branch.
In the first six months, the two people didn’t meet too much.
Hearing Li Tao said that he was taking the lead in the student union, and he was simply too busy. Occasionally, I met in the library, and after a few simple chats, he would be called away by a phone call and reluctantly broke up. At that time, each of them was too busy and too busy. On the contrary, every holiday, he always receives his blessing text messages, and Meng Shengnan is also polite to reply. Everything is calm.
In the past November, she prepared a new concept entry, and she was devastated every day, holding her computer and rubbing the Internet in the library.
When Qi Qiao called, she counted and typed eleven words. She ran the corridor outside with her mobile phone, and the girl’s voice was dull, as if she had been wronged. After asking a few questions, Qi Qiao said that she missed Song Jiashu.
“How are you at school?” Qi Qiao asked her after complaining.
Meng Shengnan said: “It’s okay.”
After she finished speaking, she paused and asked, “Will you be back during the Chinese New Year?”
Qi Qiao was quiet for a while, “I don’t know, Xinjiang has been snowing heavily these days, what about Changsha?”
“I looked at the weather yesterday and said there will be next week, but I’m not sure.”
Qi Qiao sighed again.
“Can you still visit relatives?” Meng Shengnan asked, thinking of something.
Qi Qiao said: “It seems that the Spring Festival is fine, but I checked it on the Internet and said it’s best not to go, it will not affect him.”
Meng Shengnan said ‘oh’.
“Why are you sighing?” Qi Qiao asked listlessly.
“He has to go for three years, wait slowly, and call me if he misses him.” She could only console her.
Qi Qiao seemed to smile slowly, “After a long time, what should I do if I empathize?”
“Forget it.”
Qi Qiao said to get out.
The two chatted a few more jokes and cut off the phone, and Meng Shengnan returned to his seat. Li Tao, who was studying in the library together, didn’t know when he would come up from the back seat, and asked her in a small smile, “Lu Sibei, right?”
Meng Shengnan smiled helplessly, and said, “No.”
Li Tao obviously questioned: “Did he not chase you?”
“When did he chase me?”
Li Tao smiled unkindly. The library is too quiet, it is inconvenient for the two to talk more. This topic continued until she left the library and Li Tao brought it up again, but Meng Shengnan couldn’t hide it, “Well, what do you want to ask? Just ask it all at once.”
Li Tao cleared his throat and used his quasi-reporter’s inquisitive nature.
“Do you like him?”
She shook her head.
“How do you feel?”
She shook her head.
“Not at all?”
She shook her head.
Li Tao was dizzy, “What does it matter now?”
“What do you think?”
“Not just ordinary friends?”
Meng Shengnan smiled: “What do you think?”
“It’s over.”
The two were walking on the road, and the girls in twos and threes passed by from time to time. The poplar trees on the side had already yellowed and the leaves fell on the ground, and the cold wind hit, Meng Shengnan shrank his neck. Li Tao couldn’t help but sneezed. Before stopping the gossiping heart like Xue Lin, he rubbed his nose and pointed at the passing girl.
“Do you know that, among the few of them, I bet more than half of them have dissatisfaction with Lu Sibei.”
Li Tao said categorically.
“And then?” she asked.
The wind slipped into the neck.
“Are you someone you like?” The girl asked the point.
Meng Shengnan was stunned for a moment.
“No,” she said.
God knows how against her intentions she said that word. I never saw him again after graduating from high school, nor did he deliberately inquire, let alone where he went. It seems that all his news has disappeared with the parting of the third year of high school, and it is a long time to recall.
Li Taoshan watched his words and colors, and stopped talking about it.
“Will it snow in Changsha next week?” she asked suddenly.
Li Tao looked up at the sky, “Yes.”
The sky is vast and vast, and I don’t know if he is okay.
Time passed quietly, and Christmas came just after the winter solstice of that year. Meng Shengnan received a call from Lu Sibei on the evening of Christmas Eve, and he asked her out for dinner. At that time, she seemed to realize the boy’s mind, and she was not very good at rejecting it, so she called Li Tao together.
“This is too high honor.” The girl sighed.
Meng Shengnan smiled.
“Do I mean you really mean it?”
“can not say it clearly.”
Li Tao patted her on the head, “Sooner or later you will be accepted by such a boy.”
Meng Shengnan was noncommittal.
When they arrived at the entrance of the library, Lu Sibei was already waiting there. The boy was taken aback for a moment, and approached with a smile. Li Tao touched her secretly with his arm, and almost whispered through gritted teeth: “I regret coming.”
Meng Shengnan held back a smile and blushed when he looked at the boy.
Lu Sibei asked: “What do you want to eat?”
She turned her gaze around Li Tao.
“How about you?”
Li Tao didn’t evade in the slightest, he was more generous than just now.
“You both decide.”
Lu Sibei smiled.
Meng Shengnan: “…”
They later went to a local restaurant. During the period, most of them were Li Tao asking Lu Sibei to answer, and occasionally they were silent and just smiled. Meng Shengnan ate all the time, but when asked abruptly, he simply responded and ate it again. She was nervous and didn’t dare to face him.
Several people were eating, and the restaurant suddenly became lively.
A boy came in from outside the door and walked directly in front of a pair of men and women in the second row. He didn’t even give his eyes straight to the man next to him. He came up and called the girl’s name.
“How about being my girlfriend?” He spoke very aggressively.
Meng Shengnan raised his eyes and looked over.
“I counted three times. If you didn’t answer, I would assume that you agreed.”
There was singing.
Everyone lost their sights, and saw that the boy just counted to three. The people around were happy, and they immediately applauded and roared. The **** the other side seemed to be a little bit unreturned, blushing and speechless during the whole process, the atmosphere was a bit awkward. Everyone hadn’t reacted yet, the boy had already smirked and ran out while pulling the girl. Li Tao stretched his neck and saw that there was nothing, he couldn’t bear to sigh.
“Just that boy is okay, this confession is simply confession.”
As soon as Li Tao’s voice fell, the embarrassed boy slowly got up and went out. The singing became a bit gentle and gentle, spreading in this deep Christmas Eve. Meng Shengnan closed his eyes, but inadvertently smiled dryly at Shang Lu Si Beitou’s gaze and lowered his head.
“Enough enough.” Li Tao shook his head and said, “What do you think?”
Humiliating? It seems to be mixed with him.
“It’s okay,” she said.
Lu Sibei groaned for a while and smiled, “I have a young girl who is even worse than him.”
Li Tao curled his lips: “You two are amazing.”
Later that day, a few people chatted and walked back after dinner. Lu Sibei left for a few minutes on the way, and bought two apples to give them to them. They were dazzling just by looking at them in a tall box. The streets outside the school are very lively, and laughter and laughter rippling on this special night.
Lu Sibei’s phone rang as soon as he walked to the school gate.
Meng Shengnan looked for an opportunity.
“Let’s talk later, you’ll be busy first.”
Lu Sibei knows the meaning of this sentence.
“Okay, happy Christmas Eve.”
“You too.”
After she finished speaking, she pulled Li Tao, who was wandering aside, and walked back, only to relax a few meters away. Li Taole whispered in her ear that it is happy to be bright, but Meng Shengnan fell silent, and his mood became complicated for a while. If she turns her head back, she will definitely see the boy behind her standing in place, quiet and gentle.
Lu Sibei’s eyes were far away, until the figure was no longer clear before he answered the persevering call.
“Why call me now?”
The boy over there said ‘yo’, ”Did you bother you to pick up girls?”
Lu Sibei smiled faintly, “It’s good to know.”
“Fuck.”
The boy took a puff of cigarette, and then asked, “Who can make you fascinated?”
“You will know later.”
The boy laughed and snorted, “Yes, you.”
Lu Sibei smiled and glanced at the blurred figure again. The surrounding wind blew over and raged around him. He seemed to have the illusion of Shanghai on the Bund that year, and the girl was smiling like a flower playing the guitar. He asked the person on the other end of the phone.
“Azheng, do you believe in love at first sight?”
