The laughter attracted the unsuspecting girls in the front row, and a few of them gathered around. Their attitudes didn't seem to be looking for trouble, but they couldn't be called friendly either.
"Shen Ruomian, do you know Jiang Rang and the others?"
"Classmate Shen, do you have Xu Jinzhou's contact information?"
"Can you help me ask what kind of girl Ming Jianan likes?"
Several people exchanged words with each other, and several questions threw Shen Ruomian at a loss. She didn't like this kind of direct gaze, so she narrowed her eyes and said, "I don't know them."
"Don't you know?" One of the girls raised a sharp voice and frowned: "We have all seen it, who are you lying to?"
Another girl with dyed red hair stretched out her long fingernails to press against her book, which smelled of a strong fragrance.
"Classmate, I just want to ask you for their contact information. While my attitude is still good, don't be shameless."
Shen Ruomian remembered that she, Zhao Hanxi, was from Chen Xiaoxiao. She was the thorn in the class. She was very popular outside the campus and did not dare to mess with anyone except Zhou Qiao.
She tried to pull back her things, but the girl opposite her refused to give up and sighed helplessly: "I really don't know them."
At most, she only knew their names. Even if she knew them and knew their contact information, she would not be able to do such a thing if they spread it without their consent.
"Class is about to start, what are you doing in a crowd?" Under the stalemate, a voice came from the door. It was the monitor who was here, and some people dispersed.
Zhao Hanxi didn't take anyone seriously, but he still gave Chen Xiao some face, because he usually needed the squad leader to cover him for homework and other tasks.
She let go and faced Shen Ruomian with a fake smile: "Then I won't bother you, good student."
The contempt in the words is obvious. Everyone knows that people like Zhao Hanxi hate people with good grades and good looks. In her opinion, this is hypocrisy.
Chen Xiaoxiao came in with the information from the office and distributed it to some people. Zhao Hanxi also had a copy, with a normal look on his face, and he wrote down his name and some relevant information.
Shen Ruomian also had one. It was a form about applying for funds for poor students. Chen Xiaoxiao originally was a freshman and did not have the right to apply for it. In view of her current situation, the class teacher made an exception and gave her one.
There were more than a dozen people who applied, and Zhao Hanxi was confident because she was included in the election every year.
Shen Ruomian had a rare smile on her face, and she sincerely said thank you, also for what happened just now.
Chen Xiaoxiao was not polite, returned to his seat, breathed a sigh of relief, and a dark light flashed in his black eyes.
The day flies by very quickly, and overall, the day at the new school is quite fulfilling.
Shen Ruomian did not follow the crowd. She chose to do a few more questions in the classroom. There were only a few students on duty in the classroom.
She put the boys' school uniform into her schoolbag, and of course she didn't forget the lunch box.
She was in no hurry to go home, and there was no driver at Xu's house to pick her up, which was exactly what she wanted.
I just didn't expect to see this scene.
In the alley behind the noisy school gate, there is a different kind of silence. Even the dusk cannot shine. It is so dark that the sky is about to fall down. The orangutan fire in the young man's hand becomes the only light.
That skillful swallowing of clouds and mist, the faintly lowered eyes, reveal a sense of distance that goes against the world, and the dust-free posture is a height that is beyond the reach of others.
Jiang Rang turned his head and met the girl's slightly stunned eyes through the white mist. He was also stunned and quickly hid his hands behind his back.
Neither of them spoke.
Behind Shen Ruomian, gorgeous dusk spread, and she changed direction and walked to the other side.
Seeing the figure getting further and further away, Jiang Rang remembered the burning pain on his fingers and put out the burnt cigarette butts. His eyebrows were as calm as mountains and rivers.
It was not too late, and it was not in vain that she had been looking for a photo studio for so long.
There was a wind chime hanging at the door, which would ring when the door was pushed open. There was only one shop assistant inside, and I don't know whether it was because business was cold or because she was a student and her attitude was not very enthusiastic.
Cold air hit her face. Shen Ruomian wrapped her clothes tightly, took something out of her pocket, and walked in.
——
At dinner, it was the first time for two stitched families to have dinner together.
Xu Shu seemed to be very happy. She asked Xu Jinzhou and Shen Ruomian to sit on the left and right sides, and kept picking up food from both sides. Instead, Shen Huai was left out in the cold.
"Amian, these shrimps are delicious, please eat more."
Xu Jinzhou, who was on the opposite side, raised his head, looked at the food that was about to fill the girl's bowl, and frowned: "Mom, it's not like she has no hands, how can you eat with so many people?"
Xu Shu smiled and said sorry and stopped pinching.
Shen Ruomian looked at the shrimps full of shrimps and couldn't take a bite. She said softly: "I'm sorry, Aunt Xu, I'm allergic to seafood and can't eat so much."
The other three people stopped at the same time, and Shen Huai's reaction was even weirder, blaming: "Then you didn't tell me earlier."
"I've had it since I was a child." She looked at her father and said calmly, "It's just that you forgot."
Shen Huai turned his head in embarrassment.
Later, Xu Shu said some nice words in the name of easing the atmosphere, but she didn't really listen. She lowered her head and concentrated on peeling the shrimps.
She didn't say anything else. For her, a simple seafood allergy is nothing. To be honest, shrimps are really delicious.
Gradually, there were more shrimp shells on the plate, and Xu Shu finished all the shrimps.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, she took a cold shower and didn't dry her hair until she finished her homework.
Xu Jinzhou's shirts were left to dry on the balcony after being washed. Only when the cool night breeze blew did he feel that the heat on his skin was relieved. He only had a slight allergy and his face turned a little red.
She sat on the chair on the balcony, dazed, taking pictures of what she was seeing with her mobile phone, planning to send it to her grandma tomorrow.
The next second, a message popped up at the top, it was Xu Jinzhou.
"Open the door."
This was added by the two of them during the day. Zhou Qiao asked everyone to add her to each other and pulled her into a small group.
Jiang Rang's profile picture was a photo taken against a tree. She clicked on it and looked at it countless times without seeing any meaning.
Xu Jinzhou didn't dare to knock on the door for fear of disturbing Aunt Zhang next door, but he didn't expect the person he was looking for to appear behind him.
"What's the matter?" Shen Ruomian was wearing a white nightgown. There were no lights on the first floor, so it was very dark. The mobile phone in her hand could barely illuminate her while walking. The sudden noise was really scary.
His heartbeat accelerated a few times, but he just hummed to save face.
Shen Ruomian did not let go of his angry expression. She really couldn't imagine what could happen to the young master of the Xu family who stayed up late at night and came to see her. It couldn't be that he was here to be frightened.
"Give."
Something cool was stuffed into the palm of my hand.
"What is this?" She pointed the light of her phone at it. It was medicine, but she didn't recognize it.
Xu Jinzhou answered for her, folding his arms and leaning against the door. He didn't care at the moment: "It's allergy medicine. I don't care about you, I'm just afraid that you might have problems with it and blackmail my family."
"Oh, thank you."
The door was blocked, so she added: "You're in the way."
Xu Jinzhou rolled his eyes indifferently and went upstairs.
Downstairs, Shen Ruomian looked down at the medicine and silently bent his eyes.
——
The next day, I was stopped in the corridor.
"Stop." They are a bunch of idle campus gangsters. The leader is Zhao Hanxi. They are here with bad intentions.
Shen Ruomian sighed in her heart, it was quite annoying to be disturbed like this, she just wanted to spend this year and a half in peace.
"What's up?"
Zhao Hanxi hated her perfunctory attitude, but there were cameras above and it was a special moment, so she didn't want to cause trouble.
"I heard that you are also applying for subsidies for poor students?"
Unexpectedly, she came to ask about this matter. She looked at the menacing group of people and responded quietly: "Yes."
Zhao Hanxi laughed angrily, took a few steps closer, and threatened: "I'm telling you Shen Ruomian, give up honestly. If you dare to take away my place, I won't spare you."
baffling.
There was a smell of smoke on her body. Shen Ruomian took a step back while holding his breath, bumped into someone, and heard a faint voice above her head.
"Who can't be spared?"
I could tell who this person was, plus the reaction of the girls opposite.
Jiang Rang.
Shen Ruomian turned around, her eyes flashing.
Just like the first time we saw him, he was of outstanding height, every stroke of his facial features was drawn with God's hard work, and the hazy and indistinguishable emotions in his eyes were like a god left behind in the world, which was touching.
It seemed as if the boy I bumped into yesterday was all an illusory dream.
Jiang Rang happened to be passing by on business and saw the girl in trouble, Zhou Qiao's deskmate. It was obvious that she liked this new friend very much and couldn't just sit idly by.
If we want to say that the person Zhao Hanxi fears the most, it is this person.
I heard that Jiang Rang's background was unusual and powerful. Even the school director of Qinghe was related to his family. Furthermore, he was ranked first in the grade all year round and was a favorite in the eyes of the teachers.
Zhao Hanxi is not stupid, so she naturally does not dare to offend him. This is also the reason why she does not dare to provoke Zhou Qiao. These people cannot afford to offend him.
She put away her previous look and smiled a little stiffly: "I was joking with Classmate Shen, right, Classmate Shen."
Jiang Rang lowered his head and asked with his eyes if that was the case?
Shen Ruomian was being watched like this, her palms were sweating, and her mind was filled with warmth. Her whole body seemed light and heavy, in short, it was a mess.
"Shen Ruomian?" This was the first time he called this name.
No one knew that the tips of the girl's ears, which were covered by her bangs, were covered in crimson color.
"It's okay, they didn't hurt me."
Jiang Rang warned those people not to cause trouble with a look and let them go.
He had something else to do, so he said goodbye politely and left.
The wind took away the boy's traces, leaving nothing behind.
After a while, the class bell rang. Chen Xiaoxiao came over with her homework book in her arms and called her in surprise: "Shen Ruomian, why are you still here after class?"
Shen Ruomian looked back and met her eyes, as if he had seen through something.
Chen Xiaoxiao's eyes evaded, and when he was about to organize his words, the person in front of him left without saying anything.
