Liu Changan stood up and grabbed a small plastic bag. He patted Zhou Dongdong's ponytail, who was sitting there and shaking her head. He walked to the grassy fence near the river.
"Zhou Dongdong is so cute. It's nice to be a kid. Even when she's chubby, people like her," Bai Hui said enviously as she followed behind Liu Changan.
"She's just a dumb kid." Liu Changan glanced at Bai Hui. "You're just a dumb girl."
Bai Hui obviously didn't think that Liu Changan was complimenting her, but she wasn't angry. Liu Changan was the normal Liu Changan, which meant that he didn't have any emotions.
Maybe he didn't care about what she cared about. Bai Hui felt that she didn't want him to misunderstand. It was only because of his advice and comfort.
"I told my roommates that I wanted to take them to eat all over Jun Sha." Bai Hui coughed lightly and started talking.
Because she didn't say that she wanted to take Liu Changan to eat all over Jun Sha, Liu Changan nodded enviously.
"They asked if they could invite a few classmates, and I said okay … I thought they would invite the roommates next door, but I didn't expect them to invite four people from another male room. They're all classmates, so I didn't say anything, "Bai Hui said as she peeked at Liu Changan's expression.
"Do you think I would think that you upgraded from high school with two followers to university with four followers?"
Bai Hui nodded, and then her neck stiffened. She said hesitantly, "I just don't want you to misunderstand. After all, Lu Yuan and Qian Ning embarrassed me that night. Who knows if you think that if I don't learn my lesson, a dog can't change … I didn't have to tell you, but we're friends, right? It's necessary to maintain my image." "Normal interpersonal relationships are necessary.
Qian Ning and Lu Yuan are still young, so they may not have any ill intentions. I think they're regretting it now. We can still be friends, so there's no need to take it too seriously … After all, this is the origin of all kinds of sadness and resentment in this world. People have always been hurt because they care too much. "Liu Changan glanced at Bai Hui. He didn't expect the little girl's mind to be so twisted and full of thoughts.
"I think all men are the same. They usually flatter you just for that … Once they realize that they don't have a chance, or that someone else has beaten them to you, they'll show their true colors and make a fool of themselves," Bai Hui said with a sneer.
"What are you sneering about?" Liu Changan took out a melon seed and threw it at Bai Hui's face. "I'm also a man. Be careful, or I'll throw you into the river."
"You've never flattered me …" Bai Hui angrily pressed down on the melon seed that somehow stuck to her face. She couldn't help but sound a little dissatisfied. She immediately felt that something was wrong, so she quickly put on a straight face. "Anyway, we've been friends for so many years, and they all believe that I'm selling myself. I don't believe that I can be friends with boys anymore."
"So you want to be my enemy?" Liu Changan was very disdainful. "My enemies are all dead."
"Can you remove yourself from the crowd?" Bai Hui helplessly made a gesture of lifting a ball of air to the other side. "Why do you always think that I'm talking about you?"
"No, I want to stand with the vast number of men that you despise. If I remove myself from the crowd and let you kill other men with a stick, then what's the difference between me and a dog?" Liu Changan waved his hand.
Bai Hui pressed her hand against her chest. She should not have worn a shirt under her low-cut dress today. She was a little angry.
However, she found that Liu Changan was really a magical person. Every time she talked to him, she would be angered half to death by him, but afterward, she felt that talking to him could ease some of the emotions in her heart. Then, she would feel relaxed, so she would still be happy to chat with him next time, and then she would be angry to the point of exploding.
"Humph, in front of An Nuan, you are still the same as other men. She can do whatever she wants!" Bai Hui and An Nuan often chatted. Since Bai Hui opened the Yellow Diamond Aristocrat, she could come and go freely in An Nuan's space without a trace. She also found that after she opened the Yellow Diamond Aristocrat, An Nuan also opened the Yellow Diamond Aristocrat. This showed that An Nuan actually cared a little about Bai Hui and regarded her as a potential opponent in some aspects.
An Nuan also talked about her love with Liu Changan. Girls generally showed off in front of others. She didn't mention those annoying things about Liu Changan. Instead, she just spread out the dog food.
"You have to distinguish between tolerance, love, and a certain degree of willfulness that comes from caring for each other in a relationship, as well as a mentality that treats a certain degree of willfulness as cute, and those who cater to each other without any bottom line and give up their self-esteem. Some people can't be separated, just like you. As long as you see a man's love and tolerance for a woman, you will say that he is a bootlicker. "Liu Changan shook his head," I only eat dog meat. I will never be a dog. "
"I think a boyfriend is a special bootlicker for a girlfriend." Bai Hui was still not convinced because Liu Changan's words made Bai Hui feel a little sour. Was being in love really such a beautiful thing? Only a ghost would believe it.
"Then you are a stupid dog. Wait for your special bootlicker." Liu Changan began to peel the melon seeds and asked, "Do you want melon seeds?"
"Thank you, we also have some at our table. Goodbye." Bai Hui angrily returned to her classmate's table.
Liu Changan put the melon seed shells in the plastic bag he had just brought. It was everyone's responsibility to pay attention to hygiene and reduce garbage cleaning.
When Bai Hui walked back, she could tell from the voices of her classmates who had their backs to her that they were discussing her and Liu Changan.
After all, men and women could be represented by Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang were the two poles, and the two poles gave birth to the four divisions, which gave birth to the Eight Trigrams. The Eight Trigrams was used to refer to the relationship between men and women. The rumors originated from this.
In addition to Yan Xiang, Li Hongman, and Zhao Yu in her dormitory, there was also Wang Wuyang, Lao Maigao, Guan Yuan, and Ceng Changhe from another male dormitory.
"Are you guys done ordering?" Bai Hui held her bag behind her back. She did not sit down but bent over to look at the menu.
Everyone at the table came back to their senses. Yan Xiang laughed and said, "Just now, Zhao Yu asked what Yang Dan Dan was. We said she obviously has a boyfriend, but she still pretended to be pure."
Bai Hui remembered that she was tricked by Liu Changan to eat this vomit-inducing thing. She could not help but raise her head to look at Liu Changan, who was eating melon seeds. Her eyes turned back and she smiled slightly.
Such a smile had a faint halo under the incandescent light of the barbecue stall. She was wearing a short skirt today, but the hoops were very thin. It was the type with a ribbon and a bow on the back. Coupled with a pair of ten-centimeter square toe heels, she looked very tall. Most of the people who liked skirts were called "lollies". Adding a shirt to a skirt would often make them look more stocky. However, Bai Hui's body was already thin, and her waist was also thin. Her shoulders looked wider than usual, but it also made her bust more voluptuous. This ordinary bend was very attractive.
"You can order some more. We're almost done." Guan Yuan, who was separated by Li Hongman, said to Bai Hui. People of the same age always thought about themselves and often did not care about the needs of others. Guan Yuan had a light mustache on his lips, and he also wanted to appear more mature than other students.
"I'll just eat something … Hmm, I'll have a corn." Bai Hui's waist was bent, so it was impossible for her to eat more. She casually ordered a roasted corn and handed the order to the waiter.
The waiter confirmed it and left with the order. Only then did Bai Hui sit down.
"Is that someone you know?" Li Hongman asked a nonsensical question. In fact, she asked it on behalf of Guan Yuan.
Guan Yuan was Li Hongman's schoolmate. Although they were not familiar with each other before, they were admitted to the same university and were in the same class. It was fate, and they usually talked more often.
Bai Hui nodded slightly reservedly. She was thinking about how to naturally and inconspicuously change the topic to Liu Changan, but it seemed that everyone wanted to gossip anyway.
Li Hongman pretended to be very interested and asked, "He's quite tall. Is he handsome?"
Liu Changan had his back to them, so they could not see him clearly. However, they could feel that the boy standing there gave them a very comfortable feeling. It was as if the wind from the river carried the wind from the forest on the other side of the river.
"He's my high school deskmate." Bai Hui did not say whether Liu Changan was handsome or not. If she said he was handsome, it would be a little embarrassing. She did not want to admit it, because he always had a cocky look on his face. Like David Gordway, he liked to treat girls as inferior creatures. If she said he was not handsome, she was also a little reluctant. She did not want to belittle the impression he left on his roommates and classmates.
"Deskmate," Zhao Yu said with a smile and nodded.
She and her boyfriend were not deskmates, but they only got together in the third year of high school because they were separated by an aisle.
The others also echoed the "deskmate" and laughed, except for Guan Yuan.
"Boys and girls are deskmates in the third year of high school?" Guan Yuan asked with a little disbelief and looked around.
Everyone shook their heads. This kind of situation was indeed quite rare. After all, it was proven that boys and girls in puberty were more likely to develop feelings than boys and girls of any age.
"It's just me and him in the class." This made Bai Hui blush a little guiltily, but at this time, did she have to deliberately say that he used to sit with An Nuan? Was it necessary? Was it necessary? Did others care? Why did she have to do this, as if she was deliberately emphasizing something?
"Oh … Oh … An appointed couple?" Ceng Changhe, who was sitting opposite Bai Hui, laughed and glanced at Guan Yuan. As expected, Guan Yuan's expression was very calm. In fact, in the dormitory, everyone definitely talked about the girls in the class. As the person in charge of the military training, Guan Yuan and Bai Hui naturally had some daily contact. In the dormitory, Guan Yuan liked to talk about Bai Hui more, and everyone could feel that he had some thoughts about her.
Bai Hui blushed. When she lowered her head to drink water, she glanced at Liu Changan, who had already sat back down and was arguing with Zhou Dongdong. He was really like an idiot who liked to argue with children.
"No … He doesn't pay attention in class, and he likes to read outside of class. The teacher was afraid that he would affect his deskmate, so he transferred him to sit with me."
"Then he wasn't afraid that he would affect you?" Lao Maigao was a lean boy, and he was cracking melon seeds.
"At that time, we weren't on good terms. If I ignored him, he wouldn't talk to me either." Bai Hui was telling the truth. She still somewhat missed those times. Even though some of the things she interacted with Liu Changan made her angry, now that she thought about it, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Liu Changan was always quietly doing things that had nothing to do with his studies, and it felt better than the male students around her, who always seemed to have something hidden in their bodies.
"How can he get into Shonan University like this? That's right, he should also be a local. Shonan University's admission score in the local area must be relatively low. "Guan Yuan frowned, and then immediately felt relieved.
Bai Hui also frowned. Even though there were times when Liu Changan was looked down upon, and logically speaking, it should be a happy thing. But now, Bai Hui realized that she couldn't be happy. Her voice had a tinge of mockery, "Shonan University's admission score in our local area is also more than a hundred points higher than the provincial top universities, and he … is in the top fifty in the province."
Everyone was surprised and looked back at Liu Changan, who was sitting at the other table, in disbelief. Top 50 in the province? What kind of concept was that? In 2017, two universities in Beijing had enrolled 156 people in Xiangnan, which meant that if Liu Changan were to apply, he would definitely be able to get in.
"Then why is he in Shonan University?" Guan Yuan listened to Bai Hui's faint tone of mockery, and it was not a good feeling. It seemed that she was targeting him, or perhaps she was unhappy that someone was looking down on Liu Changan.
"So what if he is in Shonan University?" Guan Yuan's roommate, Wang Wuyang laughed, "Are you looking down on your own school?"
"People strive for higher places, and water flows to the bottom. It's not normal for him to choose Shonan University," Guan Yuan said matter-of-factly, "I'm just stating the facts."
Bai Hui didn't want to talk about this. Did she want her to tell the story of Liu Changan's "wherever you go, I go" story? The heroine in the story was An Nuan, and what did it have to do with her, Bai Hui? She didn't want to talk about it, and she couldn't be bothered to.
"It's only rare, but it's not non-existent. Some people get into Hong Kong University, but don't they come back to re-enroll in a local university? There are also people who can go to Harvard and MIT, but they don't. "Zhao Yu argued with Guan Yuan.
"That's idiot!" Guan Yuan laughed. After all, Zhao Yu was Bai Hui's classmate. There was no benefit in arguing with Zhao Yu. "Forget it. Let's not talk about him. Everyone has their own ambitions."
Just as he finished speaking, a round object smashed over, accurately hitting Guan Yuan's forehead. Guan Yuan's body leaned back in pain and fell to the ground.
"Who? Who threw it at me? "
Li Hongman helped Guan Yuan up. Guan Yuan's head was covered in oil, and her face was stained with cumin and seasoning. She wasn't injured, but she was in a sorry state.
Liu Changan walked over, his hand still holding a string of sheep's eggs that was only half left.
"Why did you throw it at me?" Guan Yuan was furious. She looked at the sheep's eggs in Liu Changan's hand, and the "weapon" that hit her, and immediately confirmed it.
"You scold me, and I throw it at you. You don't even understand such a simple logic?" Liu Changan continued to eat the sheep's eggs. "Are you an idiot?"
Everyone originally wanted to target the culprit, but since it was Liu Changan, they all felt that Guan Yuan asked for it.
"How did you hear it?" Bai Hui was embarrassed, even though this had nothing to do with her.
"I thought you would gossip about me, so I pricked up my ears. If you say bad things about me, I'll let you learn airplane dance from Zhou Dongdong." Liu Changan had no interest in eating with strangers, so his attention was naturally divided. He was not far away, and he was downwind, so he naturally heard it.
"I didn't …" Bai Hui quickly explained. It was not a bad thing to say that Liu Changan didn't like studying. That was the truth … but what was airplane dance?
"I'm sorry, don't mind him. We were just chatting casually. He didn't mean any harm," Li Hongman said to Liu Changan.
"Why are you apologizing for him?" Liu Changan glanced at Li Hongman, then turned to look at Guan Yuan and smiled. "You put some cumin and chili powder on your face. Are you trying to pretend to be a sheep's egg?"
Guan Yuan was annoyed. Did I put cumin and chili powder on my face myself? Guan Yuan pointed at Liu Changan. "I'm telling you, you should stop before you go too far. Be reasonable, I didn't say anyone was an idiot just now. Don't blame me if you think you're an idiot!"
"Everything you said is right." Liu Changan thought for a moment and agreed that it was reasonable. Then, he slapped Guan Yuan. So what if you're right? Liu Changan was a little unhappy. He had always been the one to reason with others, but Guan Yuan actually wanted to reason with him first. Did she want to hit him? Then he'd better make the first move.
Guan Yuan staggered to the side. Liu Changan's hand speed was too fast. Guan Yuan couldn't dodge at all. He only felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
A few of Guan Yuan's roommates hurriedly went over to help Guan Yuan up. However, it was impossible for them to help Guan Yuan hit Liu Changan. They had just become roommates, how could they stand up for Guan Yuan? The other party looked like a local. Would they be able to take advantage of him if he caused trouble?
"Stop fighting … Liu Changan, let it go." Bai Hui saw that Guan Yuan was beaten and felt that Liu Changan should have vented his anger. It wasn't that she wanted to help or sympathize with Guan Yuan, she just didn't want the matter to get out of hand.
"Okay." Liu Changan nodded. Actually, he didn't need Guan Yuan to apologize. If he could apologize, then so be it. If he didn't, then he'd hit him and let him know that apologies often worked.
The girls also comforted Guan Yuan … It wasn't that the students were afraid of Liu Changan, but everyone had a scale in their hearts. If Guan Yuan was the one with the dirty mouth, then don't blame others for slapping you.
Zhou Shuling ran over and pulled Liu Changan back. At first, she thought that Liu Changan was just playing around with his classmates. She only reacted when Liu Changan slapped her.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Shuling asked as she pulled Liu Changan's arm.
All-Star also expressed his concern and kindly reminded, "Little Liu, I'm not saying that you're right to hit him, but don't do it in front of a child."
"That's fine." Zhou Shuling smiled and waved her hand. She didn't want All-Star to say that. From her perspective, Liu Changan liked Zhou Dongdong. Why would he need advice from outsiders?
"It's nothing. Someone scolded me. Let's continue eating. "Liu Changan picked up another string of lamb's eggs. This thing had to be eaten while it was hot.
All-Star also wanted to eat lamb's eggs, but he held it in. Otherwise, Zhou Shuling might think, Aren't you single? Why are you eating this thing when you're single? Do you want to do something?
(Zhou Dongdong)
The people at the next table couldn't continue eating without being affected. Guan Yuan felt very embarrassed and wanted to get back at them. He took out his phone and looked like he was about to make a call, but his roommates and girls kept persuading him to stop and take a step back.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. Guan Yuan couldn't help but slap the table. At this moment, Bai Hui sneered, "You're asking for it!"
Guan Yuan was stunned. "I only said one sentence and he rushed up and hit me! Could it be that this is my fault? "
"Of course it's your fault. I've never seen Liu Changan being unreasonable." Bai Hui also got angrier the more she thought about it. Why did she have such a stupid classmate? Shonan University had many trees, forests, and birds. Hence, there were all kinds of people.
"Alright, you guys eat slowly." Guan Yuan couldn't take it anymore. He got up and angrily ran to the road to flag down a taxi.
A few girls shouted a few words. His roommates were hesitant to chase after him. Bai Hui's expression was ugly. "We're eating our food. It's my treat. You guys are running away. Aren't you going to give me face?"
When Bai Hui said this, no one cared about Guan Yuan anymore. Everyone was ignoring him. How could he bear a grudge against them? There was nothing to befriend with such a person. Just let him be.
Li Hong Man was the most familiar with Guan Yuan. At this moment, she could only shake her head. Guan Yuan usually liked to pretend to be mature. Actually, a boy of his age didn't have any social experience. How mature could he be? He just wanted to set up a persona for himself.
After eating, Liu Changan and Zhou Shuling drank some beer. The All Stars had to drive. He didn't drink. Women with children usually didn't like men they weren't familiar with drinking and driving. It was a sign of losing points. The All Stars were considerate.
This time, Liu Changan sat in the front passenger seat. Zhou Shuling and Zhou Dongdong sat in the back. He could tell that the All Stars was a traditional man of marriageable age. His conditions weren't bad. However, Zhou Shuling didn't like him at all. It couldn't be helped. Hence, Liu Changan didn't try to matchmake them. It was meaningless.
When the car reached the district, Zhou Dongdong was already asleep. Zhou Shuling couldn't carry her anymore. Liu Changan came over and carried Zhou Dongdong back.
"Goodbye, sweet dreams." The All Stars smiled and waved.
"Be careful too." Zhou Shuling waved her hand politely.
Liu Changan went back and placed Zhou Dongdong on Zhou Shuling's bed. Liu Changan looked at her. "She's not young anymore. I'll make a bed for her next time. You have to let her learn to sleep alone."
"You know how to make a bed?" Zhou Shuling wanted to laugh. She felt that Liu Changan was full of strange talents. "I'll go buy one."
"No, I'll do it."
After Liu Changan finished speaking, he went down. Zhou Shuling smiled and sat on the bedside, caressing the round little face of her daughter who was sleeping soundly.
There was a saying that in life, half of the day and half of the night were occupied. During the day, there was a hall, a side, a boat, or a carriage. There was no definite place. During the night, there was only one bed. Even a bed was something that was shared for half a lifetime. Compared to hair and chaff, it was the latter. When it came to treating things, there was no one who was more generous than this.
The importance of a bed was self-evident. Furthermore, with the progress of time, beds were also evolving. Some beds even had special abilities, such as binding spells or sleeping spells. People often said that his bed didn't allow him to get up. It was probably true. Otherwise, why would everyone say the same thing?
Liu Changan wanted to make a new bed. He bought a lot of materials on Chinese Valentine's Day. It was more than enough to make a small bed. Liu Changan took out a board and thought of a shape. He then took out an inkpot to draw inks.
After busying himself for a while, Liu Changan went to boil tea. He laid on the balcony for a while with the tea in his hand. Pushing aside the leaves of the sycamore tree, he could see a part of the night sky. There were some stars twinkling, but they weren't very bright … In Jun Sha, there weren't many days where he could see the bright stars. It depended on the weather and luck. The dust in the air of the city always made people unconsciously forget about the stars. They also forgot about the mysteriousness and reverence of the stars.
Some people said that only the stars and the moral law in one's heart were worthy of reverence. For Liu Changan, the moral law was sometimes a difficult thing to understand. It was possible to have it, but the reverence in his heart might be lacking. However, the starry sky above Liu Changan was indeed one of the few reverence he had.
Sometimes, he would wonder if he originated from a meteorite that fell on Earth countless years ago. If so, where did this meteorite come from? Was this meteorite random, or did it carry some kind of mission? Or was it not a meteorite, but a UFO? An interstellar life capsule? Just like the story in "Prometheus"?
After looking up at the starless night sky, Liu Changan finished his tea and was about to continue working when he received a call from Bai Hui.
Liu Changan picked it up. "What's the matter?"
"Guan Yuan … Guan Yuan is missing!" Bai Hui's tone was a little hurried.
"Who's Guan Yuan?"
"The one who scolded you today!"
"Oh."
"This matter might cause you trouble." This was the reason why Bai Hui called Liu Changan.
"Logically speaking, as an adult, he shouldn't be counted as missing. Have you reported him to the police?" Liu Changan turned on the hands-free mode and started sawing wood.
"What are you doing?" Hearing the sound of sawing wood, Bai Hui was shocked. She remembered this sound in many horror movies that were related to saws.
"Sawing wood."
"You're sawing wood in the middle of the night?"
"Or are you sawing people?"
"Don't scare me … The last message that Guan Yuan sent to Li Hongman said that he would find you sooner or later … If he really is missing, the police may ask you some questions based on this last message," Bai Hui reminded Liu Changan.
