At 5: 30 in the morning, Lou Cheng woke up naturally. Outside the window, the night sky was as dark as ink, dotted with stars.
Subconsciously, he checked the thermal lunch box to make sure there was nothing wrong with it. Then he went to the bathroom to relieve the pressure on his bladder, wash his face, and rinse his mouth.
When he came back, he turned on his phone, logged into QQ, held the lunch box tight, closed his eyes again, and meditated to practice Condensation Stance, seizing every minute and second.
After more than 20 minutes, the beeping sound of a message came. Lou Cheng took it out and saw Yan Zheke's struggling emoji with a red ribbon on her head. "The pretty one is already up!"
"She's copying what I used to say …" He couldn't help but laugh in a low voice. He quickly replied, "I'm the one who got up first!"
After a few words of greeting, Yan Zheke went out for her morning exercise. He had been holding back the fact that he had brought delicious food in advance. How could he be happy without being surprised?
At 6: 13, the train arrived at Songcheng North Station. Lou Cheng carried his luggage and lunch box, and moved away along with the crowd. It was a little bright outside, and the damp and cold air hit his face.
At this time, there were basically no online taxis available. Taxis would complain that Songcheng University was too close to the old campus and wouldn't make much money, so they wouldn't take passengers. Lou Cheng went to a nearby bus station, waited for a while, and then got on the first bus. It was empty, and there were no more than five people including him and the driver.
He didn't find a seat, but stood on the spacious ground at the back door, with his feet apart, and meditated. He felt the start, stop, and bumpy of the bus, constantly adjusting his center of gravity and practicing Yin-Yang Stance.
Martial arts in daily life!
After a few stops, Lou Cheng arrived at the old campus of Songcheng University. He went to the school bus station with familiarity and waited for the first bus to go to the new campus.
While waiting, he put his backpack and insulated lunch box in a clean place, took off his down jacket, and put it on top. He wore a sweater and casual trousers, like an old man or woman practicing Tai Chi. He slowly practiced every move and every move, using the training routine to temper most of his body. He turned a blind eye to the curious and amused gazes of the few people around him who were waiting for the bus.
Half a year could change a person. He no longer had any shyness about practicing martial arts, or lack of confidence in front of others.
At 6: 40 a.m., the first school bus opened on time and headed for the new district in the suburbs. Lou Cheng played out the Big and Small Hand Wrap in his mind, competing with himself.
The ripples of Weishui Lake reflected the surrounding trees and mountains, as well as the reflections of the brightly lit teaching buildings. This familiar scene made Lou Cheng feel more at ease, more settled, and a sense of belonging grew within him.
Early in the morning, it was chilly and chilly. Facing the spring chill, he walked on the pedestrian street in groups of threes and fours. For many students of Songcheng University, this was the last stage of recitation and preparation for self-study at 7: 20 AM.
Dorm 302, Unit 2, Building 7. Lou Cheng took out his keys and opened two doors.
When he entered the small room, Zhao Qiang, Qiu Zhigao, and Zhang Jingye were no longer there. Everything was neatly arranged. It was obvious that they had gone to the cafeteria for breakfast and started a day of self-study. In the small dormitory next door, the sound of snoring was faintly audible.
"Little Ming must have played online games with them for a long time last night …" Lou Cheng thought to himself. He put down his luggage and opened the thermal lunch box. He found a pair of scissors and cut open the bags one by one, pouring them into different layers that could be taken out.
"It's really warm. Just a little heat in the microwave will do … Braised quail eggs can't be heated like this, but it's barely edible …" He checked and rearranged the thermal lunch box. Carrying it, he went out excitedly and nervously. He went to a cafeteria near the girls' dormitory and found the microwave for heating food. He occupied a seat next to it and waited patiently for Yan Zheke to finish her morning exercise.
While waiting, his mind was full of thoughts and he couldn't calm down. His heart beat faster and faster. He was even more nervous than when he entered the ring for the first time.
"What should I say later?"
"Just say that I brought the glutinous rice cake and ask her to come here. It's the easiest kind of cake to bring but also the least sincere one …"
"She should be surprised when she sees the rest. Should I take the opportunity to say something?"
"Well, what should I say? If she subconsciously asks, 'Do you still remember?', I should say, 'I remember everything you told me …' "
"No, Little Ming said that before the girl makes the final decision, I can't give her too obvious hints. That will give her pressure and make her uncomfortable, resulting in the opposite effect …"
"Then I should change my wording and tone and say, 'Of course I remember everything you told me.' It's a little suggestive, but not too obvious …"
"Well, I should also pay attention to my breathing. It can't be too fast or too nervous. It has to be calm, calm, and generous …"
…
Lou Cheng's thoughts were running fast. He designed different scenes and thought about different dialogues. He deliberated and practiced repeatedly, even taking the breathing rhythm into consideration. In the end, he couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up and paced back and forth as if Yan Zheke was standing in front of him. He kept practicing, striving to perform perfectly and leave the girl with the best impression.
At eight o 'clock, Yan Zheke finished her morning exercise and began to chat with him intermittently.
After confirming that she had taken a shower with hot water, Lou Cheng took a deep breath and sent a snickering emoji.
"I brought you a glutinous rice cake. Come and eat!"
Yan Zheke sent a surprised emoji covering its mouth. "You really brought a glutinous rice cake? Hehe, not bad. You still remember me, Coach Yan! Good, I'm hungry. Where are you? "
"The microwave in the cafeteria." Lou Cheng held back his excitement and answered. He quickly put the roasted eggplant, steamed beef pancake, and glutinous rice cake into the cafeteria. After a short while, he placed them one by one on the table in the cafeteria. He stood behind the food and looked at the entrance.
Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump. His heart beat like a drum and his blood rushed into his brain, making him tremble slightly. He recalled what he had practiced repeatedly just now.
After a short while, a beautiful figure that he had been thinking about day and night appeared at the entrance. Yan Zheke was wearing a white sweater, a plain long down jacket, dark jeans, and snow boots. She attracted the attention of passers-by.
She stood there, looking around in confusion, looking for traces. Her head was slightly tilted, and her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall. She was so beautiful that Lou Cheng was in a trance. He almost forgot the breathing that he had practiced.
Finally, she confirmed the location of the microwave oven and saw Lou Cheng. Her lips curled into a faint smile. She raised her right hand, signaled him, and quickly approached him.
Lou Cheng hurriedly took two steps forward and met her at the table.
Yan Zheke opened her pink lips and was about to say something when she suddenly saw the four delicacies on the table. Old Liu's roasted eggplant, steamed beef pancake, Wang's glutinous rice cake, braised quail egg, and three steaming dishes in front of her.
She pouted and opened her mouth, forming a cute O shape. She immediately raised her right hand and covered her mouth. She turned her head and looked in the opposite direction. She swayed her long hair, leaving only a side profile of her face to Lou Cheng. Her nose was straight, her face was rosy, and her skin was soft and smooth. Her long eyelashes drooped down and covered her eyes.
After a short silence, she turned her head and looked at Lou Cheng up and down. There seemed to be thousands of bright stars hidden in her eyes.
Lou Cheng had always heard that the eyes were the window to the soul and could see other people's emotions. But at this time, he could only read the surprise and joy in Yan Zheke's eyes. As for the rest, it was too complicated to say.
Yan Zheke put down her right hand and lowered her head. She said with a smile,
"You really brought all of them here …"
"Yes, I said I would repay Coach Yan's kindness. After all, you are my life mentor." Lou Cheng just blurted out the answer and wanted to slap himself. What the hell was he talking about?
It was completely different from the repeated practice just now!
His mind was a little blank. He felt that his body was stiff and he couldn't perform well.
Then he heard Yan Zheke's chuckle and saw her pursing her lips and smiling eyes. She seemed to be amused.
Yan Zheke turned her head and looked to the side again. She said as if nothing had happened.
"You eat with me. I can't eat so much. It won't taste good when it gets cold."
"Okay!" Lou Cheng was delighted. He hated that the tables and chairs in the cafeteria were fixed together, so he couldn't pull out a chair for a girl.
When he just sat down, he suddenly remembered something. He hurriedly stood up and said with annoyance,
"Chopsticks! Chopsticks! "
He forgot to pick up chopsticks!
Now he was going to lose points again!
He didn't dare to look at Yan Zheke and hurried to the window. He heard the girl's faint laughter behind him.
Picking up the chopsticks, he mentally prepared himself and turned back. He saw Yan Zheke looking at him with a smile, without any disgust or disgust.
Heaving a sigh of relief, a smile naturally appeared on his face. He quickly walked back and handed the chopsticks to the girl. Sitting opposite her, he watched as she elegantly picked up a piece of eggplant. Her neat white teeth were slightly exposed as she delicately ate it in small bites. Her black and long thin eyebrows relaxed, revealing a bit of satisfaction. There was a different kind of beauty.
Lou Cheng couldn't get enough of her. He kept peeking at her secretly and took every opportunity to look. Yan Zheke's delight in the food was like her affirmation of him, filling him with a strong sense of satisfaction.
Suddenly, Yan Zheke raised her head and looked at him with her clear eyes. She caught his peeking eyes.
Subconsciously, Lou Cheng looked to the side and picked up the chopsticks. He casually picked up a pea and stuffed it into his mouth to hide it.
Yan Zheke seemed to have eaten too much. Her cheeks were slightly red. She lowered her head again and said with a faint smile, "Coach Shi sent an email to all the members of the Martial Arts Club, saying that this semester's martial arts class will start on time the day after tomorrow. As for the special training, it will start tomorrow if everyone is here. If not, it will be the day after tomorrow. Wait for the notice. Have you read it?"
"Ah?" Lou Cheng was at a loss at first. He was stunned for a while and then came to his senses. "Yes, yes. We'll talk about the preliminaries then."
The long-distance communication during the holiday made him a little nervous and uncomfortable when he was with Yan Zheke in person. He didn't know how to chat with her. Fortunately, she started the topic first. Following the matter of the Martial Arts Club, he showed his true colors when communicating online and didn't let the atmosphere become awkward.
Unconsciously, Yan Zheke put down her chopsticks. There was only a little residue left in the different layers of the lunch box in front of her. Of course, part of it was Lou Cheng's contribution. But he was too busy looking at the girl opposite him, intoxicated by her every frown and smile, to eat without tasting anything …
"I can't believe I ate so much … Will I get fat …" Yan Zheke said worriedly.
Lou Cheng hurried to comfort her. "You won't. You are practicing martial arts. You consume a lot of energy. You need to eat more."
Yan Zheke nodded slightly and glanced at the thermal lunch box. "It's so effective? I think the braised quail egg is still warm. It's not cold. "
"It's a little better than I expected." Lou Cheng beamed as if he was praised.
After chatting for a while, he assembled the lunch box and sent Yan Zheke back to the dormitory.
The two walked side by side. Lou Cheng smelled a faint fragrance, which stirred his soul and made him feel like he was in a fairyland.
He didn't know if it was the smell of her shampoo or the fragrance of her body … Amidst all kinds of uncontrollable thoughts, he quietly sized her up again. He saw her jade-like white hair, small and delicate ears, and her mouth running like a train, talking about random topics.
Soon, they arrived at the door of the third building where Yan Zheke was.
When they were about to say goodbye, Lou Cheng suddenly thought of something. He looked forward to it and asked worriedly, "Didn't I say I would treat you to a big meal to repay your good character? When will you be free?"
She won't go back on her words … I should be able to ask her out …
Yan Zheke looked to the side, pursed her lips and smiled. "Then you have to make a good strategy. You can't take me to a bad meal."
Strategy … Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the girl had agreed!
His mind buzzed and his heart was filled with joy. He hurriedly said,
"Okay, okay, I'll make a strategy as soon as possible. No, right away!"
"Well, I'll go back first. I still have to work on the winter vacation investigation report!" Yan Zheke didn't look back. She waved her hand and stepped into the door of the third building.
Lou Cheng stood outside the door, restless and happy. He watched Yan Zheke's back as she walked to the entrance of the building.
Her hair reached her vest. Her hair was so good …
She should be 1.65 meters tall. Her proportions were so good. Her legs were so long and straight …
…
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw the girl turn her head!
This scared him. He was afraid that she would find out about his "lecherous" look.
Seeing his bewildered look, Yan Zheke rolled her eyes and smiled sweetly.
Lou Cheng's mind seemed to explode. He stared at her and for the first time deeply understood the ancient poem "Looking back with a smile, a hundred charms appear".
He didn't wake up until the girl disappeared at the entrance of the building. He was excited and restless.
What should I do next?
Could it be that he could take advantage of the private meeting to try and hold her hand while crossing the road?
He couldn't calm down and planned to go back to ask Cai Xiaoming for advice. When he entered the dormitory, before he knocked on the door of the opposite room, Cai Zongming jumped out with a black hero's bandana wrapped around his head.
"What are you doing?" Lou Cheng was shocked.
Cai Zongming said "seriously",
"I, Cai Zongming, am not convinced by your strength!"
