who's next

Chapter 13

The moon is as cool as water, and the shadows of the trees are whirling. The Beixi Park in the midsummer night is extraordinarily quiet.The hot breeze is mixed with the fragrance of gardenias, and the air is full of sweetness.

The center of the park is a castle made of neon lights, just like following Alice into a fairyland after falling into a rabbit hole.The surrounding branches are also hung with strings of colorful lights and tassels, and a little bit of starlight is at your fingertips.

On the ground in front of the castle, a huge heart shape was placed with candles, and a few bunches of pink balloons were tied around the fence. The picture is old-fashioned and romantic.

This is the reason why Ji Huai is not free tonight, all the arrangements in front of him are made by him and his roommates, in order to help the head of the dormitory chase the girl.

Ji Huai is the youngest in the dormitory, and everyone takes good care of him on weekdays, otherwise he wouldn't run to the park at night to feed mosquitoes for other people's life events.

The head of the dormitory, who was usually careless, felt shy at this moment, twisting his hands together uneasily, and his eyes wandered to the entrance of the park from time to time.

"Headmaster, that girl won't go back on her word, will she?" The third child is a straight-talking master, speaking without thinking.Before he finished uttering the last word, he was staggered a few steps by the second child.

"What nonsense is it?"

Ji Huai squatted lazily by the bench and yawned continuously, his peach-like pupils were faintly rippling with tears.

He can't understand this kind of human courtship behavior. It's more practical to think about how to make money when you have free time to fall in love.

Suddenly, a beautiful figure dotted the dense night, and the girl in the lavender dress was long overdue.The smooth long hair dances with her steps, and the curvature of each strand of hair is beautiful.

"I'm sorry I'm late." Her eyes were like stars, reflecting the light of colored lights, but there was no surprise in them.

"It's okay, that..." The head of the dormitory scratched his head honestly, and his head fell to his chest.

"Then what I want to say is I'm sorry." The girl politely and distantly interrupted the dormitory director's unspoken words, and everyone present, including Ji Huai, felt their hearts skip a beat.

"I have a favorite person."

Ji Huai's yawn was swallowed abruptly, and he subconsciously looked at the head of the dormitory, only to see that the light in his eyes gradually went out like a candle, becoming deeper than the night.

"I didn't know that the surprise you mentioned was a confession. If I had known in advance, I would not have come here." The girl refused very decisively, and did not give the dormitory director a chance to respond.

He was dumb for a long time, and then said with a smile: "I didn't make it clear, which caused you trouble."

Ji Huai and the others huddled in the shadows to minimize their presence, leaving the stage to the two eight o'clock contestants.

The girl opened her mouth to speak but stopped, and finally said nothing, just said: "Then I will go back."

"Let me see you off, it's not safe for a girl to walk alone at night." The head of the dormitory blurted out, but then realized something was wrong, and quickly changed his words, "Or let my roommate see you off? Just Ji Huai, he fights fiercely, there are sense of security."

Ji Huai who was suddenly cue: "?"

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, her tone could not hear any emotion: "Thank you."

Ji Huai was full of question marks, unable to stand up to the head of the dormitory who was winking at him crazily, so he had to obey.

The girl's name is Tan Miao, and the school is a little far from the Academy of Fine Arts, but it is also within the University City.

Ji Huai didn't have too many twists and turns. He just walked out of the park and asked bluntly: "Who is the person you like? Do we know each other?"

Compared with the restraint of getting along with the head of the dormitory, Tan Miao at this time seems to have unloaded a heavy burden and relieved a lot.

"I said I like you, do you believe me?"

"Impossible." Ji Huai denied it without even thinking about it, "We haven't met a few times at all, how can we like someone without knowing anything?"

Tan Miao chuckled: "I found that your dormitories are all carved out of the same mold, rigid and straightforward."

During the conversation, when turning at the traffic lights at the intersection, Ji Huai naturally changed his position and walked to the outside of Tan Miao, the side close to the traffic flow.

"It's okay if you don't want to disclose, anyway, I don't think you two can make it."

Tan Miaoyun calmly brushed up the broken hair beside her ears: "He will meet the right person."

Ji Huai sent Tan Miao to the bus station, and he didn't leave slowly until he got on the bus.

Stopping and stopping all the way to the subway station, Ji Huai always felt that he seemed to have forgotten something important today.

There were still many people in the subway station at this time, and Ji Huai squeezed into the carriage with the flow of people.He held the ring with one hand and was facing the door, when he saw a gray figure rushing down the elevator in three steps at a time.

Ji Huai felt that this person looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he met him for a while.

As soon as the young man stepped into the carriage, the beep sounded.Ji Huai didn't know what kind of wind he was smoking, so he reminded in a low voice: "I'm overweight, wait for the next elevator."

The young man let out an oh, and obediently withdrew to stand outside the yellow warning line, and then watched the car door close, his expression slowly changing from calm to astonishment.

The subway started to start, and the scene outside the window receded rapidly. Ji Huai looked at the dark tunnel before realizing what stupid thing he had just done.

After returning to the dormitory after a long journey, I felt an extremely oppressive and dreary atmosphere as soon as I entered the room.The head of the dormitory sat silently in front of the table in a daze. There was a can of beer on the table, and the water droplets on the aluminum packaging were distinct. It seemed that it had been taken out of the freezer for a long time.

Ji Huaiyu walked over and patted the head of the dormitory on the shoulder earnestly: "It will all pass."

The head of the dormitory looked up expectantly: "Did you ask any news?"

"No, give up."

Just as Ji Huai was about to take his clothes into the bathroom to take a shower, the door of the dormitory was kicked open roughly, and there was an earth-shattering wail: "Ji Huai—"

He froze, and finally remembered that the important person he had forgotten was You Zhengzheng.

Ji Huai threw the clothes back on the bed, rushed to You Zhengzheng's side and dragged him to the rooftop.

There was a strong wind on the roof, blowing You Zhengzheng's hair wildly. He threw away Ji Huai, took two steps back in a defensive posture, and said, "What are you doing? Finally, you can't help but want to kill me?"

Ji Huai: "...Didn't you find that the atmosphere in my dormitory is very strange?"

"Not found."

"Forget it, how about your date today."

You Zhengzheng shyly covered his face: "We didn't go wrong, we went to the tennis club to play all afternoon, and we still kept in touch after we separated."

"That's pretty good." Ji Huai was a little absent-minded, and his chatter was easily contagious. After listening to You Zhengzheng's babbling, he suddenly wanted to talk, and he couldn't vomit.

"I was at the subway station just now..." Ji Huai explained the matter clearly in a few words, the dim light did not pay attention to You Zhengzheng's darkening face.

"So it's you, the little bastard." You Zhengzheng gritted his silver teeth secretly, and squeezed out every word from between his teeth, "That person is Ning Xuzhi! He hasn't returned to school just because of you!"

"Did you go out together and come back together???"

Mentioning this, You Zhengzheng was even more furious. He put his hands on his hips and scolded aggressively: "I am afraid that you will be hungry, so I rushed back early to bring you the sauced duck that I have been thinking about. Who knows that all of you are not in the dormitory!"

"I'm sorry!" Ji Huai clasped his hands on top of his head, "Where's the salted salted duck?"

You Zhengzheng's resentful eyes almost pierced him: "Your lack of attention to detail has ruined a lot of my tenderness."

While the two were still arguing, Ji Huai's cell phone rang suddenly, cutting through the silent night.

"Are you done? I want to talk to you."

Ji Huai: "?"

What a good day today, why are they rushing to tell him their bitterness?
