The first thing Jin Yiken did after taking care of Dong Xi was to "reverse the case" for her.
The incident between the two of them was not made public on the same day, but that night, the girl who posted the photo deleted the album and publicly apologized on the campus network, restating the original exaggerated story, showing that there was a misunderstanding. Dong Xi's side of the best friends also gradually voice, one by one to speak for her.
That night, Dong Xi's account had one more friend, Jin Yiken.
If a girl opens the first door of her world to a guy, she will not be far from giving her heart and soul to him.
This double holiday was spent in a muddled manner, Zhuo Qing sent a text message asking her if she wanted to attend a lively class party next Saturday, she did not reply; and Long Xinyi changed from texting to calling, asking when she would come back for a meal, she said, "Don't get any ideas, I'm tired of just listening to your voice."
"Come on, sister, I miss you, if you don't want me to think about my mother, she really misses you, every day complaining about her temper that day."
"I know my aunt's temper and I don't blame her, but you Long Xinyi also don't pull to my aunt's side, who made the matter who is fully responsible, don't think I'm soft because I got a host, my attitude is hard, really want me to go back you come to my knees for three days and three nights."
Long Xinyi is not angry, or a playful tone of voice asked: "Jin Yiken and you in the end what relationship? Tell me."
Long Qi held back a breath.
He blindly guessed: "You two are all bases?"
"Love rival relationship!" She hung up the phone.
When he entered the classroom on Monday morning, Dong Xi was already there.
Long Qi entered the door when she was organizing books, a thermos bottle on the table, Long Qi from the thermos bottle alone can see a little bit of the name to, at that time there is a real sense of desolation flowing through the heart, and long standing in the doorway of the appearance to attract Dong Xi look over, two people's eyes in the morning light quietly on each other.
Long Qi did not avoid it, just look at her.
Perhaps affected by the gossip that has been pressing on her recently, Dong Xi this time collected her eyes before Long Qi, she continued to look down at the book, her fingers gently smoothed the corners of the paper, and the thermos bottle in the corner of the table had a harsh presence, like someone's low-key declaration of territorial ownership, the only thing that remained the same was her still reticent appearance.
Long Qi went back to his seat and sat down, and when he looked over there again, Dong Xi just unscrewed the lid of the thermos bottle and took a sip of warm tea.
For the next two days in a row, Jin Yiken didn't make Dong Xi's relationship with him clear, he didn't seem to be in a hurry, he was very relaxed, and Dong Xi didn't look a bit restless, the only change was that there were more drinks on the table that were always at the right temperature.
But every time school is over, she will stay in the classroom to do homework, if Long Qi followed to stay, she will leave early.
Well, here is the general understanding of what, Jin Yiken the bastard did not intend to bring Dong Xi to the surface, he soaked to Dong Xi returned one thing, admit her is another thing, somehow even convinced Dong Xi, or she will not avoid outsiders.
And he's got more than that.
The comment was a photo of a corner of Dong Xi's bedroom that he uploaded a long time ago, and the words he left were: Isn't this the room I came back from?
Long Qi's brain exploded with a dull bang.
The sound of chair feet rubbing the floor made the noise in the class diminish, and a circle of eyes around her stared at her, the table looked at her, and Dong Xi in the front row also turned his head in her direction to pay attention.
Long Qi's chest rose and fell, she looked in Dong Xi's direction, because being so watched, Dong Xi's expression slowly turned from the blandness at first to a hint of doubt on her brow, the students around Dong Xi also followed Long Qi's line of sight to look at her, but Long Qi did not stay much longer, she took her bag and coat from her seat and headed for the front door of the classroom.
She retired early.
After leaving early, she went to the gym.
Every Thursday at this time Jin Yiken had the habit of leaving early to play ball, and as soon as Long Qi entered the field she saw him, he was about to throw the ball, and the sudden sound of footsteps drew him to look back, while she walked without pause to the basketball cart, threw her bag and coat in, and copied a baseball bat that was sitting inside.
"Hey." He said.
She strides toward him, carrying the bat.
The basketball fell out of his hand onto the ground, and with every step Long Qi took toward him he walked backwards and took a step backwards, the two of them getting closer and closer, and then Jin Yiken dodged behind the basketball shelf, which blocked for him a stick swung by Long Qi, and the stick that followed was narrowly avoided by his sloping shoulder.
"Hey!"
"Where did you move her?" Long Qi followed him, pointing his bat at him.
Jin Yiken narrowed his eyes and slurped his mouth.
She slashed at him again with the bat, and he leaned back to avoid it, putting his right hand in his sweatpants pocket and swimming backwards.
"Where!"
He held out his finger than three: "Third base believe it or not?"
Long Qi stops in his tracks, glares at him, and throws his bat at him violently!
He side-stepped to avoid it, and waited until the bat landed and there was no more attack in her hands before he grinned at her and said instead, "Second base."
"Not even second base! "
"Her room smells good."
"You don't have to talk about that."
"Hair smells good too."
"Don't provoke me, you hear?"
He took a breath backwards like he was remembering the enjoyment, "It was just too raw."
Long Qi copied the ball from the cart and prepared to smash him, he came up and quickly hugged her from behind, her arms were instantly wrapped around her, and she was carried off the cart by him, he was next to her ear and stimulated: "Heart like death, right?"
"Let go!"
"I was in the same mood when I knew I could buy you with money!"
Long Qi turned around and broke away from his arms: "She and I are two different things, Jin Yiken you have the ability to chase after her in a dignified manner! Don't use tactics that I despise!"
"What about you? You don't even dare to talk to her."
"It's none of your business!"
Long Qi stepped on a basketball on the ground when she stepped back, and fell backwards, sitting on the gymnastics mat behind the basketball hoop.
He turned around to look.
Long Qi's side was blocked by a tall vaulting apparatus, she was just half lifted up by him, and then he abruptly let go of her, causing her to fall back onto the cushion, while he looked there and moved the apparatus over without a trace, blocking her body solidly.
Listen to the voice, it is Dong Xi.
Jin and she had a tacit agreement on "keeping out of sight and sound", and it would not be good for either of them if Dong Xi found out sooner, so she silenced herself and sat inside while Jin walked towards Dong Xi.
The two met, close together, and Jin's body blocked Dong Xi's view of the room, while Dong Xi looked into his eyes as he spoke and his hand rested on her shoulder.
She spoke to him.
At first, her voice was so soft that it could barely be heard, and Jin Yiken was next to her to talk back, and what he said could not be heard, until later Dong Xi's voice was faintly loud: "But I'm afraid others will misunderstand."
Long Qi listened.
Dong Xi said, "I think someone has already misunderstood."
"Who?"
Dong Xi did not say who it was, only asked, "Can you delete it first?"
Although the word is asking this, but the tone is very soft and light, Long Qi can hear, that tone is ready to compromise, is even if you ask so, but as long as Jin Yi willing to say "no" will continue to let him go, let him play, as long as he is happy with the compromise tone.
Jin Yiken didn't even say "no" and shook his head slowly and deliberately.
Dong Xi also did not speak, nodding gently.
Then a moment of silence.
After holding the sound for half a minute, Long Qi glanced out and saw Jin Yiken whispering in Dong Xi's ear.
Like comfort.
He said, while gently patting her shoulder with his hand.
Dong Xi's head is lowered, her hands are held together by his other hand, and she is comforted by him for a little while before she nods and says softly, "Then I'll go back to class."
He nodded his head.
After Dong Xi left, Long Qi came out holding the saddle horse, Jin Yi was willing to walk towards her, she waved her hand, "Don't come over, don't want to talk to you."
Then holding her back, she slowly walked to the cart to get her bag and coat, and he asked, "Do you remember what day this Saturday is?"
"Yes."
"You remember?"
She said, "The day two months ago when you tricked me into dying in the provinces."
He laughed: "Seven, if you ask me alone this Saturday, I'll get together with Dong Xi for good."
"Don't be too proud of everything, Jin Yiken," she limped away without looking back, "If you have this much free time, you might as well guard Dong Xi against Bai Aiting, Dong Xi is too good."
The first time I saw Bai Aiting, I went back to class and saw Bai Aiting.
The class has just finished its evening study, Long Qi covered his waist into the classroom, just in time to hear Bai Aiting ask Dong Xi's sentence: "OK?"
How is it? What is okay?
Bai Aiting's hands are propped up in front of Dong Xi's desk, looking very cordial, but Dong Xi has obviously tasted the bitterness of being under her knife, deliberately not talking, pinching the water pen in his hand, his lips and eyebrows indifferent.
"OK la?" Bai Aiting asked again.
The people in the class are packing their things, the sound of talking is not loud, everyone's ears are erect.
Dong Xi still does not answer, so Bai Aiting restated: "It really does not matter, this Saturday you will come, the class will also go then, the main invitation you also because you originally with us a class."
...
"And your family lives in the same neighborhood as Yiken's, so it should be very convenient to come over, just for the sake of Yiken's birthday on Saturday, come on."
The day.
Long Qi listened to her ears and shook her head speechlessly, Bai Aiting's "generosity" and "friendliness" exceeded her imagination. The company's main goal is to provide a solution to the problem.
When Bai Aiting still intended to speak, Long Qi turned to their side: "Long Zhu Public House is not it?"
Dong Xi and Bai Aiting both looked over, Bai Aiting froze and asked back, "How do you know the name of the neighborhood?"
"I'll be there on Saturday, so I'll see you then."
"You're going too?"
"Ask Zhuo Qing if you don't believe me."
Bai Aiting no longer speaks, and at this time Dong Xi body defensive state seems to be slightly relaxed, Long Qi back to the seat, heard Dong Xi back to the sentence: "I will come when the time comes."
But Long Qi's participation was obviously not in Bai Aiting's plan, so even after persuading Dong Xi, Bai Aiting's expression was not relaxed when she left, and she looked at Long Qi, who was holding her cheeks against her.
Not even three seconds later, Bai Aiting averted her eyes.
