In the morning, just as Duan Shu Xian arrived at the library, she saw that the house next door that had been abandoned for half a year was being renovated.
"Auntie Huang, what are the decorations for?"
Duan Shu Xian asked curiously.
"Oh!" Wasn't there a coffee shop here before?
If there's no business, I'll leave. I heard yesterday that there's going to be another coffee shop here. It should be under renovation.
"Duan Shu Xian was slightly startled. This was also a good thing. This way, she would be able to drink coffee at school. She hoped that the price wouldn't be too expensive.
Duan Shu Xian propped up her chin. When there was no one around, she took out the book she loved to read and started reading. There was a lot of time here, and most of it could be used to read books. Wandering in the sea of knowledge was the happiest thing.
Today was Sunday, and there were quite a few students. Another day passed in the midst of the busy work, and the renovation of the next door continued.
On Monday, Duan Shu Xian saw a man who did not look like a student walk in. He was about 27 or 28 years old, dressed casually, and was also very handsome. His gaze was sizing up the library, as if he was filled with memories, and his eyes were filled with faint yearning.
Auntie Huang immediately sized him up in surprise, and Duan Shu Xian immediately asked curiously, "Sir, may I ask if you are a staff member of the school?
We have a rule that people who are not members of the school are not allowed to enter the library.
"Duan Shu Xian's clear voice caused the man to come back to his senses. His gaze fell on Duan Shu Xian, and in an instant, his pupils constricted as he stared at her.
Duan Shu Xian couldn't help but panic when she was stared at by a man. Why was he looking at her like that?
Could it be that what she said just now had angered him?
"I'm the owner of the coffee shop next door. I don't know if I can be considered a staff member here."
As the man spoke, he walked closer to Duan Shu Xian, his gaze still fixated on her as he sized her up.
"Auntie Huang, does it count?"
Duan Shu Xian immediately asked Auntie Huang who was beside her in a low voice.
"Little Duan, let him in! I remember him. He also graduated from our school.
"Auntie Huang gave him a gentle smile.
"Auntie Huang, do you still remember me?"
"Of course I remember you! Back then, you were an influential figure in our school … And back then … "As Auntie Huang spoke, she could not bear to mention it again.
A pensive look flashed across the man's face, and his handsome face was tinged with sorrow.
At this moment, a worker came over to call him. As he left, he couldn't help but glance at Duan Shu Xian.
Duan Shu Xian was really surprised. Why was this man staring at her?
"Auntie Huang, you really need to know him!"
Duan Shu Xian asked softly.
"This child! Back then, he was also a very famous person in school. He was very handsome, and all the girls liked him. He also had a very beautiful girlfriend. Unfortunately, I don't know what happened to that girl. One day, she jumped down from our teaching building and died on the spot. "
"Ah?"
As Duan Shu Xian listened to this sad story, she couldn't help but feel sympathy.
"Why?"
"I don't know. It seems that she has a terminal illness. She didn't want to drag him down, so she left early. She was a very beautiful girl!"
After she finished speaking, Auntie Huang turned her head to look at Duan Shu Xian. Her eyes revealed a look of size as she muttered to herself, "You look a bit similar to that girl!"
"Huh?
Really? "
Duan Shu Xian immediately caressed her face, "Do I look like it?"
"It really does look like it, sigh!" A good girl left just like that. We were all regretful back then! I didn't expect that after five years, this boy would come back and open a coffee shop at school. He probably hasn't let go of that girl yet! "
Duan Shu Xian's heart couldn't help but feel heavy as she listened to this sad love story. Truly loving someone was an injury that even time couldn't heal! Was it because she was similar to that man's ex-girlfriend that he looked at her like that?
Duan Shu Xian propped up her chin and stared blankly for a while. She hoped that the owner of the coffee shop would be able to walk out of his sad past.
"Opening a coffee shop in the school really isn't a profitable business. The owner moved away last time."
Then, she thought of something and smiled, "However, I heard that this boy's family is very rich. It seems that he isn't someone who lacks money."
Duan Shu Xian laughed, "Maybe he just wants to open a coffee shop here!"
The renovation of the coffee shop was done very quickly. It was probably because the renovation company was very large and had sent out sufficient personnel. By Tuesday, it was already somewhat presentable. Duan Shu Xian came early today. When she passed by, she couldn't help but walk to the door to take a look.
"Hi, are you the librarian?"
A clear male voice came from behind him.
Duan Shu Xian was immediately shocked. She turned around to look at the mysterious coffee shop owner. He was wearing casual clothes and had a 1.83 meter tall figure. His eyes were brimming with a smile, and he had the gentle and intimate feeling of a coffee shop owner.
"Yes, I just arrived at the beginning of the year."
Duan Shu Xian replied with a smile.
"You're quite young, why would you consider working here?"
He asked.
"My dad is teaching here. I want to accompany him and prepare for next year's postgraduate exam."
"What's your surname?"
"My surname is Duan."
"Teacher Duan Deming is your father?"
"You know?"
"There's only one teacher in this school with the surname Duan. I've even attended his class before. He's a very good lecturer."
"Thank you."
Duan Shu Xian couldn't help but feel proud of her father.
"My name is Jiang Ning. From now on, we will be neighbors."
"Hello!"
Duan Shu Xian pursed her lips and smiled. Under the spring sun, her smile was so bright that even the sunlight seemed to lose its color.
Jiang Ning's gaze immediately froze for a few seconds. He stared at her and said softly, "You look like an old friend of mine."
Duan Shu Xian immediately knew who he was referring to. It was his girlfriend who had died from a terminal illness, so she could only say, "I heard about you from Auntie Huang. The news of your girlfriend's death is truly a pity."
Jiang Ning was slightly startled. He raised his head and looked in the direction of a building, "She must be very happy in another place. She is a very beautiful person."
"Definitely."
Duan Shu Xian comforted her, "I also hope that you can forget about the past and live a new life."
Jiang Ning's gaze fell on her face again. Looking at the clear light in her eyes, it was as if he had seen the girl who had died, smiling at him, advising him to face life again.
"Good!" "I will."
Jiang Ning nodded. He had come here to reminisce, to open the knot in his heart, and to prepare to live a new life. He had a premonition that meeting the girl in front of him would be the beginning of a new life.
"I'll go to the library first. If you want to come in and read, I won't stop you."
After Duan Shu Xian finished speaking, she waved her hand with a smile and walked towards the door of the library.
Actually, the coffee shop and the library were in the same building, so it was only a few steps away from the coffee shop.
Duan Shu Xian walked in and saw that the cleaning aunt was wiping the bookshelves. She put down her bag and found a piece of cloth from the side, "Auntie Liu, I'll wipe the tall bookshelves at the back. Your waist isn't good, so don't climb the ladder."
"Little Duan!" You are such a good girl! You will marry a good family in the future.
"Auntie Liu couldn't do anything for her. She could only wish her well and say that she was good.
Duan Shu Xian couldn't help but smile, "It's fine, it's just a small matter, helping others is a pleasure!"
After saying that, she was slightly startled, as if someone had said those words to him, it was the Teacher Xi.
Duan Shu Xian couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Why would she think of him?
Eh! Today seemed to be Tuesday, and he had a class in the afternoon.
However, even if he had a class, whether or not he could see him was still a problem! Duan Shu Xian's other little person was retorting, why do you want to see him so much?
Duan Shu Xian immediately picked up a small bucket and walked towards the row of bookshelves with a cloth in her hand.
The library was very quiet in the morning. There were almost no students who came early in the morning. Usually, the peak period was in the afternoon and evening.
Duan Shu Xian finished wiping the third row of bookshelves. She wrung out the water from the rag and continued to climb up the fourth row of bookshelves with the ladder.
As she wiped it, she saw that there was actually a spider web in a corner. The books here were all very expensive. If they were to be eaten by insects, it would not be worth it.
Therefore, when one saw bugs, they had to be eliminated.
