Although he had grown up with her, he had never seen such a " homebody " Lin Xinlan. Zhou Zhiwei was obviously stunned for a moment before he burst into laughter.
She was dressed in pink pajamas with cartoon patterns and a dark blue cotton coat. Her hair, which had not been combed after she woke up, was tied up behind her when she washed her face. At this moment, it was as fluffy as an abandoned bird's nest.
She pretended to be calm as she glanced at him and walked into her room without batting an eyelid.
After cleaning herself up, she finally appeared in front of Zhou Zhiwei " normally ". Seeing that he could not help but laugh, Lin Xinlan rolled her eyes at him again." Is it funny?" Haven't you seen a beauty before?"
Zhou Zhiwei stopped laughing. After thinking about it, he laughed again." Hahahahahaha…" He probably laughed too loudly and exaggeratedly. He covered his stomach and rolled down from the sofa. He squatted between the sofa and the coffee table and continued to laugh without caring about his image.
Lin Xinlan looked at Zhou Zhiwei, who was laughing so hard that he was about to go crazy. She didn't understand when his laughter had become so incomprehensible to her. She could only shake her head helplessly.”，Regardless of how much Zhou Zhiwei was laughing, she took her cup from the coffee table and went to the water dispenser to get a cup of warm water. Then, she sat down on the sofa calmly and took a sip of water. She stared at Zhou Zhiwei, who was laughing so hard that he could not hold it in anymore. She finally could not help but tell him to shut up." Zhou Zhiwei, your laughing acupoint has been hit? How long are you going to laugh?”
" Hahaha... I, I can't take it anymore, hahaha..." Zhou Zhiwei struggled to get up from the coffee table and sat on the sofa, pointing at Lin Xinlan," I... I..."
Lin Xinlan looked at him, who was laughing so hard that he could not even speak, and she did not give him a good look. Wasn't it just seeing her being sloppy once? Was there a need to laugh like this?
Just as she was about to speak, Zhou Zhiwei snatched the glass of water from her hand and gulped it down his throat. He drank the rest of the glass without leaving a single drop.
Lin Xinlan looked at his unsatisfied expression after drinking and really wanted to punch him, but considering the disparity in strength between them, Lin Xinlan held back.
Zhou Zhiwei finally stopped laughing exaggeratedly. He handed the empty cup to her and said fearlessly," Good sister, go get another cup of water for brother."”
Lin Xinlan took the cup and placed it heavily on the coffee table. The " bang " represented her uncontrollable anger at the moment. She stood up and looked down at Zhou Zhiwei, who was sitting on the sofa and still unable to hide his smile. She rolled up her sleeves, the anger in her eyes almost turned into a raging fire that could burst out at once. Finally, she straightened up, picked up another cup, and turned to walk towards the water dispenser.
Zhou Zhiwei thought about how she wanted to get angry but couldn't. He laughed again as he watched her take the water. Lin Xinlan turned around and glared at him. Since she could not defeat him, she would use her sharp eyes to kill him.
Zhou Zhiwei drank more than half a glass of water and put it down. He cleared his throat and looked at her seriously."Xin Lan, there's something that I haven't told you. I think I can't hide it from you anymore.”
Seeing his serious expression, Lin Xinlan could not help but admire his ability to change emotions. Was this the so-called schizophrenia? However, she had no choice but to temporarily put aside her 'resentment' towards him and asked seriously,"What is it?"
"Promise me first that you won't be agitated after knowing the truth, especially not when I've hidden it from you for so long.”
His expression suddenly became serious, as if what he was about to say was something she could not accept. She secretly prepared herself in her heart." Tell me, I promise you. I won't be agitated. It's not your fault."”
"Xin Lan, you…you have to be mentally prepared, because what I want to say…"
"Zhou Zhiwei!" Unable to stand his dawdling, she resolutely interrupted his nonsense. In this world, there was nothing more unacceptable to her than his sudden departure." Just tell me what you're hiding from me!”
Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhiwei suddenly burst into laughter again, louder and more exaggerated than before." Hahahahaha…I…I really can't hold it in anymore…"
The veins on Lin Xinlan's forehead bulged. She was so angry that she grabbed the half-filled cup on the coffee table. Just as she was about to give all the water in the cup to Zhou Zhiwei, who was already "crazy", Zhou Zhiwei suddenly blocked her with his hand and begged,"No, no, no. I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?”
He used his eyes to signal Lin Xinlan to look down. Lin Xinlan did not understand and followed his gaze to look at her pants.
One second, two seconds…
"Ah…"
Then, she awkwardly " fled " and ran into her room in a second. The poor door was closed with a " dong " by her.
That was probably the most embarrassing thing she had ever done since she was a child. She wore a dark blue coat, a black sweater, pink pajama pants with a cartoon bear printed on them, and black ankle boots. Her pink pajama pants stood out among all the dark colors, but she acted unusually " normal " throughout the entire process. She walked from her room to the living room as if nothing had happened. She was unmoved by Zhou Zhiwei's sudden laughter. She took the glass of water very naturally and walked to the water dispenser. She took the water, drank it, and sat upright on the sofa. Her actions were done in one go.
Zhou Zhiwei started laughing at her slovenly appearance, then at her " strange clothes ", then at her " unmoved ", and finally at her " late realization ".
That morning, bursts of " weird " laughter came from the Lin family's house, followed by a hoarse " scream ". It was Lin Xinlan's " revenge " on Zhou Zhiwei after she finally returned to normal.
When a person deeply missed another person, her heart, mind, and even blood would be filled with that person's shadow. Because she was thinking about it, her actions would lag behind her consciousness.
That morning, Lin Xinlan's consciousness was occupied by silence. Her entire brain was in a daze, so all her actions lost their consciousness. That was why such an obvious and abrupt combination did not attract her attention, and she was caught by Zhou Zhiwei for no reason.
She was indeed poisoned. This poison was not fatal, but it made her extremely ill and incurable.
Because of that embarrassing incident, Lin Xinlan did not leave the house for three whole days and refused to let Zhou Zhiwei in. Until Du Qinru found out what had happened and scolded her, she decided to face it calmly and then forget it.
Lin Xinlan received Chi Shengrui's text message one night before the Spring Festival. The content of the message was short and incisive: " The mountains have trees, and the trees have branches." Lin Xinlan wouldn't find it strange if it was someone else who sent such a message, but it was clearly sent by Chi Shengrui. A person like him didn't look like someone who would think of such a sentence. Lin Xinlan couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over her body. She didn't understand what was going on after reading it, so she ignored it. She threw the phone aside and buried her head in her book.
Probably because he didn't receive Lin Xinlan's reply, Chi Chengrui called directly two minutes later.
Her phone kept ringing and Lin Xinlan answered it impatiently.
Before she could even speak, Chi Shengrui's roar entered her ears like thunder. Lin Xinlan's intuition told her that the world was instantly filled with lightning and thunder.
"Lin Xinlan, you've gotten bold. How dare you not reply to my messages? Listen to me, this is not a discussion, this is an order. I order you to reply to my text messages within two seconds and answer my calls within one second. Also, you are not allowed to ignore me or reject me when you see me in the future. You are not allowed to be distracted when I talk to you. In front of me, you are not allowed to have other people in your eyes…"
Initially, Lin Xinlan was about to hang up the phone after he let out his first roar, but when she realized that his tone was a little off, she held the phone and did not say a word. She listened to him calmly as if he was talking to himself. He should be drunk. His voice was drunk, and it was noisy on the other end. He should be in a bar or a KTV.
It was very noisy on the other side. After Lin Xinlan heard his many " not allowed " words, her mood was a little complicated. It wasn't that she didn't know how domineering Chi Chengrui was, but she had never thought that Chi Chengrui would suddenly call her after getting drunk and say these things. How could she, who was full of scars, accept another new relationship as if nothing had happened? She wanted to hang up the phone without changing her expression, but just as she was about to put it down, Chi Shengrui's voice pierced her ear like an angry and sharp voice.
"Lin Xinlan, who do you think you are? Who do you think you are? Do you think that everyone will revolve around you? Do you think that without you, I, Chi Shengrui, will live like a fool? You're wrong, let me tell you, it's not that I, Chi Chengrui, want to pester you, it's that kind of arrogance that you put on a high and mighty front that I don't like. Hehehehe…You're not some otherworldly fairy. I deliberately approached you, but you still couldn't resist the temptation and rejected me. If they didn't ask me to…ask me to take good care of you, do you think I'd want to be your colleague? Lin Xinlan, let me tell you, you are just a prop in my game, you…"
There was suddenly no sound from the phone. The other party must have hung up.
Lin Xinlan held the phone tightly and listened to the call that was cut off without refuting. Her other hand was clenched into a fist. If he was in front of her now, she would not hesitate to punch him. It turned out that the " colleague " who said that he wanted to be friends with her was actually a hypocrite. Lin Xinlan's mind was filled with his accusations against her, as if she was really evil.
She said that he was " entrusted " by someone to " take good care " of her. She asked herself that she had followed the rules in school and had never provoked anyone. Why was it still " them "? Lin Xinlan was even more confused. After entering university, apart from the people in the dormitory and her colleagues in the institution, she did not know anyone else in the class.
