I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

Chapter 26 Ome Ome (18)

In the end, Xu Jiao couldn’t figure out what the problem was that made Shen Yelan look like that.

Because she found…

Shen Yelan seemed to be keeping a distance from her.

Compared with the original appearance of flattered when she took the initiative to approach and greet her, Shen Yelan still doesn’t dare to look at her very much, but Xu Jiao can clearly feel the gesture between the other party’s gestures. There is restraint in it.

Yes, restraint.

“Sister Jiaojiao, what’s going on with this surname Shen recently? Why is she so cold and indifferent to us? It makes me feel like a hot face and a cold **** when I talk to her. .”

This morning.

It is rare for Su Xi to wake up early, and finally caught up with Xu Jiao for breakfast. She improved on the quiz two days ago and got a score that she didn’t dare to think about before, so she was in a good mood during this time. .

When she saw Shen Yelan just now, she happily said, “Morning.”

As a result, Shen Yelan nodded lightly without raising her eyes, and only replied “Yeah.”

Afterwards, half of the bread in his hand was eaten, and he got up and went back to the house without saying hello. The eyes didn’t even glance in the direction of the two of them. The whole person looked at the extreme coldness.

This was how Su Xi had complained.

Xu Jiao looked thoughtfully at the direction Shen Yelan was walking away.After a while, she returned her attention to the dinner plate in front of her with a faint expression, cutting the luncheon meat inside, slowly. To answer Su Xi’s words:

“Have you never been called “Shen” or “Shen”? Why, you are only allowed to be rude and not cold in character?”

Su Xi stomped her feet and called her aggrievedly: “Sister Jiaojiao, which side are you on?”

Xu Jiao swallowed the food in her mouth, looked at her without a smile, and then took the tissue next to her and wiped the corners of her lips. Then she replied, “It’s not on your side anyway-she and Lao Shen A surname. You don’t call someone’s name every day. If they meet outside, you call out with a surname of Shen. Who knows which one you’re calling?”

Su Xi murmured and defended: “Old Shen Ke is much more interesting than her, Shen Wenwen is so interesting, not the same as this dull gourd.”

Having said that, Su Xiyang raised his wrist to avoid letting the chain on his wrist fall into the warm soy milk, and did not forget to turn the topic back:

“Hey, really, if you say she ignores me–”

“Sister, haven’t you noticed that this little Nizi is also very cold to you lately? Find out that she is a tenant and you are the landlord, and she still owes you money. Are all the people who owe money in this world so uncle?”

Xu Jiao walked to the kitchen with the paper towel she had just used and threw it into the wastebasket. When she came out, she heard Su Xi’s injustice. She took the first two steps and knocked on her chair, even though her tone was still Gentle, but there is a momentum that forces people to obey.

“Xiao Xi.”

“Don’t think about rewards when you help people. Repaying favors will be annoying-forget it, you don’t understand this. In short, this is my business and I know it in my heart. You are not allowed to mention it again. This one.”

Su Xi stuck her tongue out, seeing Xu Jiao’s serious expression, and then she had to respond, “Okay, okay, I see.”

Xu Jiao hooked her lips and adjusted the hairpin and hair accessories on her head that were blocked by her hair. When she lowered her eyes, she added:

“Not to mention…”

“I don’t think she is cold.”

Xu Jiao recalled Shen Yelan’s recent appearance. She always felt that the other party seemed to have something to do, and the coldness was not out of perfunctory, it seemed to be…

It looked like a volcano whose inner core was about to erupt, but it was still covered with volcanic ash that had been silent for a hundred years, so there was no clue.

Or, like the deep blue lake before the wind and rain, watching the calm, calm, and autumnal sky, in fact, the next second will set off a huge storm, engulfing all the flat boats and embankments.

Although she didn’t know how she came to the conclusion, Xu Jiao felt so vaguely.

Su Xi waved her hand and lay down on the table lazily, dipping her face to the straw of the soymilk cup, drinking a soymilk and sitting down without sitting down, she took a big sip before she said, “Okay, okay. Sister Jiaojiao, you are so good-tempered, but I can’t control her anymore. My mother has urged me to go back every day recently.”

“When I leave, you must be careful not to be bullied by that surname Shen.”

Before Xu Jiao could answer, Su Xi clicked her lips and added to herself: “Forget it, I must be worried about it. As far as our sister Jiaojiao’s record is one dozen ten, the only person whose surname is Shen can be found everywhere. For the tooth.”

Xu Jiao was heading to the sofa and was going to read a few newly bought “Three-Body” from the bookstore. He only slightly curled her lips when she heard that, and she didn’t express any opinion on Su Xi’s description of her force. She just cared. :

“Uncles and aunts should miss you very much. When you go back, remember to coax them and don’t make them angry.”

“I know, I know, sister, your long-winded energy is almost catching up with my mother.” Su Xi reluctantly perfuncted her.

…

What Xu Jiao didn’t expect was–

Just two days after Su Xi left her house, Shen Yelan also bid her farewell.

“I recently asked a friend to help me find a house with cheap rent and close to the school. It’s not good to always live in your place. Thank you for your stay during this period. Please give me an account every month. The repayment will be fixed, and the interest will be based on the bank interest rate, okay?”

Shen Yelan packed up her things, with a big snakeskin bag bought in the market at her feet, standing at the door of Xu Jiao’s room, with the toes of her shoes facing the tile line at the door, without a millimeter overstepping.

Even the words were polite, no longer the cautiousness and stammering when talking with Xu Jiao before.

She lowered her eyes, making people unable to see her emotions, but these words were indeed impeccably perfect.

So Xu Jiao felt for a moment that Mingming and Shen Yelan could see each other in school every day, but at this moment, the heroine in front of her was so strange that she couldn’t understand it.

It seemed that something that he could not see was happening inside this person.

And this change is enough to make Shen Yelan reborn.

Xu Jiao got up from the desk, and the little yellow dog rubbed her toes fondly, and followed her to the door step by step, but when she looked at Shen Yelan, she whimpered and hid behind Xu Jiao’s. Behind the trousers.

Xu Jiao looked down in confusion, and smiled at Shen Yelan: “It’s a bit timid.”

Shen Yelan twitched the corner of her lips and shook her head gently, indicating that she didn’t mind this matter.

Xu Jiao thought about what she had just said, and then recalled the recent inexplicable blackening value that rose by one if a word did not agree with him. She couldn’t help but ask, “Did something happen to you?”

Shen Yelan’s eyes moved, and only said, “No.”

Seeing that she wanted to conceal something, Xu Jiao did not continue to ask, but instead asked, “Is the new place safe? After all, you are still a female student. Whether you rent it yourself or share it with others, you must be careful. a little.”

Although she knew that Xu Jiao was just a routine politeness, Shen Yelan still felt that these words were like close care…

Let her regret it for a moment.

Greedy wanted to listen more.

“Weird, if you want to stay so, why are you leaving? Now that annoying and eye-catching Su Xi is gone. There are only two of you in this house. What’s more, you are not bad at your skills now. Shut, tut.”

A figure that was exactly the same as the person in front of him appeared again without knowing it. Because only Shen Yelan could see it, “Xu Jiao” deliberately got close when she spoke, and she blinked her eyes unmoved by Shen Yelan. , Suddenly walked to the opposite Xu Jiao.

Then she squatted down quietly, pointed her finger at Xu Jiao’s trousers on her right ankle, and blinked at Shen Yelan wickedly, all with hints.

In Shen Yelan’s eyes, there are two identical Xu Jiao, one standing there indifferently, the other doing all the work, even the hair is exuding a seductive meaning, and the eyes are full of cunning.

Shen Yelan breathed and screened. In order to avoid showing any horrible expression, she closed her eyes and repeated: “No need.”

You don’t need to stay, you can’t stay.

Her current situation is too bad. To see Xu Jiao every day, it is not only a kind of happiness but also a kind of torture for her today, but this terrible illusion is like a fixed place buried there- It explodes-bombs at times, and doesn’t know when it will explode.

Even if it was only a possibility, she didn’t want to cause herself to hurt Xu Jiao.

Xu Jiao: “Huh?”

There was a bit of surprise in her eyes, suspecting that Shen Yelan hadn’t heard her clearly. She had just asked clearly whether the newly rented place was safe. Why did it seem that this person was still stuck with the last question?

Shen Yelan opened her eyes again and noticed Xu Jiao’s surprise. She was stunned for a moment and missed a beat in her heart. Fortunately, she had a good memory and quickly added:

“I mean, don’t worry, I have a sense of measure.”

Xu Jiao let out a “Well”. There really is no reason to keep her in front of her. She agreed without much thought: “Okay, but you can just repay the previous figure without adding interest. Everyone is a friend.”

“Friend?” Shen Yelan stared at her blankly, repeating these two words unconsciously.

Xu Jiao looked at her expression, blinked her eyes slowly, and asked the system in her heart: “Why did I show my estrangement from her before? This kid now looks like I’m talking nonsense.”

The system science answered: “Judging from the heroine’s growth experience, she is most likely to belong to the type that is very sensitive to environmental changes, so it is not surprising that the host’s intentions are discovered.”

Xu Jiao praised: “Well, that’s why I admire your artificial intelligence. Even if you don’t understand emotions, you can use big data to make statistics that are closest to the truth. It sounds like that.”

These two sentences with the system caused Xu Jiao to have no time to respond to Shen Yelan’s words. Fortunately, Shen Yelan answered with a face:

“Well, we are friends.”

“As long as you need it, I will definitely appear in front of you.”

She said this very solemnly.

So that Xu Jiao seemed to vaguely feel the weight hidden between the lines through these ordinary words, and it was heavy, and it suddenly pressed on her heart.

After a while, Xu Jiao smiled and said, “What you said to me just now, and now I will give it back to you, don’t worry about me-all right, I will send you down.”

Shen Yelan shook her head and refused her kind help. He bowed his head and walked to the door with the bag of earth haha. When he raised his hand and touched the handrail, suddenly, Shen Yelan stopped and looked back. Glanced.

Xu Jiao was squatting at the door, holding a bone-shaped molar biscuit teasing the dog who picked it up, and teasing softly: “Xiao Huang, look here.”

The light coming in from the balcony was in a quadrilateral shape, and the golden edges and corners framed by the window frame happened to fall on Xu Jiao’s feet, like an angel holding a sword of judgment, bowing its proud head to its most pious Lord.

Even Sunlight didn’t dare to be abrupt, and only stopped in the square inch that was about to touch her skin, as if the whole world should surrender to her feet in this way.

And the **** of this world, the **** in Shen Yelan’s heart, just squatted there relaxedly, giving out his favor freely, with dark pet biscuits between his white fingertips, watching the little yellow dog bite twice and did not bite. Moved, his eyebrows were showing petting, letting the little thing lick his fingertips, flattering and cute.

This scene, through Shen Yelan’s eyes, was deeply burned on her heart.

Let her remember for a long, long time.

…

Shen Yelan did everything thoroughly.

Now that she had decided not to meet, she disappeared completely from Xu Jiao’s world. In the final exam of the second year of high school, she was ranked 41st in her grade.

In the placement of the new semester, this grade could not enter the first class, and it was the first place in the third class.

The class 1 classmate thought she had accidentally missed it again, until she found out that this person had maintained a score of 40 out of 40 in every subsequent examination, and she would always be in class 3, and she never entered class 1 before the college entrance examination. Classroom once.

There was a class of classmates who talked about Shen Yelan during a chat between classes, and they all looked very embarrassed.

“I heard that she was the number one in our 18th High School when she came in? Now she can only hover between forty and fifty for each exam. It’s too miserable.”

“Actually, it’s normal. You didn’t find many people who got good grades in the first year of high school. After the second and third year of high school, don’t you know where they fell during the mock test? Some people just have a bad mentality.”

“Yes.”

The topic was fleeting. At first, someone observed whether Shen Yelan would come back every time he took the exam. Later, the entire class 1 seemed to have forgotten this person, and everyone was only focused on the questions in front of them.

The college entrance examination is a single-plank bridge to be crossed single-handedly. No one can help except for their own efforts.

Even the usually lazy geniuses, as the countdown gradually approached, they rushed to brush a few more sets of questions, and then, the guides, the games, and the others were busy preparing the information for independent enrollment.

Everyone is fighting for the future, and there is a thriving atmosphere in the air.

When Xu Jiao was caught in this atmosphere occasionally, she would not be able to distinguish between tonight and the eve, as if she had really become a part of this senior sister’s all living beings, trying hard to cultivate her own share of reward.

During the break, she smiled at herself in her heart: “I seem to be a little bit into the drama–”

“System, when can I leave this world?”

The system inquired about the progress: “After the heroine Shen Yelan and the destined president live happily together, you can leave.”

Xu Jiao roughly counted, this is the rhythm of waiting at least ten years.

She sighed, all came, forget it, take a B major before leaving, it can be regarded as achieving a new achievement that she doesn’t have in the real world.

but……

“I didn’t expect that Shen Yelan’s favorability for me was 90. There is nothing unusual about it. It seems that your favorability test value is not very accurate. Maybe her favorability for me is because I saved her life. That’s why she referred me as a close friend.” Xu Jiao was a little dizzy with the question, so she went to the system to chat.

system:”……”

It expressionlessly said: “I’m sorry to inform you that our Friendship Test is divided into degrees. Friendship degrees below 50 are those between friends, and those above 50 are likely to turn emotions into love.”

Xu Jiao: “Does your family love the farther away the more love?”

Xu Jiao: “I love you to the end of the world and never meet?”

Xu Jiao: “Is this the rhythm of negotiating enemies before they even start?”

The system was speechless, and could only answer in a flat tone: “Perhaps, Shen Yelan has a special growth experience, so the value will be slightly higher.”

Xu Jiao was satisfied when she heard this, “That’s right.”

However, she did not try to get close to Shen Yelan. After all, Shen Yelan would only meet the actor at university. Before that, she would not bother to go up and take care of things, as long as Shen Yelan’s darkening value does not affect the plot. Just let her go like this.

…

It’s another year of college entrance examination season.

The eighteenth middle school is very long this time.

The province’s liberal arts champion and second place are all in their school.

Before the results came out, Xu Jiao received a call at home and heard the teacher in class 1 congratulate her with a smile: “Xu Jiao, have you checked the results? We have received notice here in advance, you are The second place in the province, the teacher wants to say congratulations to you!”

The once prestigious eighteenth lieutenant high school leader changed his mind from the second year of high school, and finally won the second place in the liberal arts in one fell swoop. This time, even the dean of education who has always seen Xu Jiao displeased, he discussed with the principal whether or not When the media from the Chinese Commercial Daily came to interview, they told Xu Jiao’s extremely educational story.

The education of the Eighteenth Middle School was really successful!

Through the meticulous efforts and cultivation of the teachers, they brought a child who had almost gone astray back to the right track, and made her future brighter!

Xu Jiao was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and asked on the phone, “Teacher, who is the first?”

The teacher’s smile was even stronger, “The number one is also in our school! You may have the impression that because of missing exams before, he fell into class 7 and then was in class 3…Shen Yelan!”

“The two of you really played so well. It is estimated that soon after my call, those colleges and universities will call you. You can now discuss with your family what school and major you want to apply for, so you can prepare in advance.”

“The school will also apply for bonuses in the city and districts. Recently, there should be some newspaper reporters and media asking you to interview you. You must be prepared. If you don’t understand anything, you can come anytime. Ask me, the teacher will provide you with suggestions…”

Xu Jiao heard the joy in that voice, her mood changed a little, and she responded with a smile:

“Okay, thank you teacher.”

really–

After that, she kept receiving all kinds of calls at home. Even if she was as patient as her, after drinking three glasses of water, she felt exhausted physically and mentally, and she wished to ask someone to answer the phone on her behalf.

Even the nominal aunts and aunts called from foreign laboratories, expressing a very proud expression of Xu Jiao in their words, and they did not forget to ask her about her current mood and her exam time. Status, as well as the question of intent to be reported later.

When Xu Jiao was done, she couldn’t even have the energy to eat.

The phone’s ringtone rang again tirelessly.

Her joy had been diminished a long time ago, she didn’t even glance at the phone page, relentlessly adjusted the phone to silent mode, and then glanced lazily at the caller ID.

Su Xi.

Xu Jiao ate two bites of rice mechanically, and another braised fish with chopsticks. After the warm food fell in her stomach, she felt like she had come back alive. When Su Xi failed to get through once, and persisted in making the second call. Swipe to answer:

“Sister sister! You are so awesome! I just heard people in the school say that you got the second place in the province, you are too good! I have decided, I want to hold a celebration banquet, I want to take the old man Shen and the others are all called, and they all celebrate for you! From then on, don’t the schools across the country let you choose, choose whichever you want!

After she talked over there for a while, Xu Jiao didn’t say a word. Instead, she ate half a bowl of rice without rushing to the full voice of the kid.

Su Xi finally released her excitement and asked: “Sister, where do you think the celebration location should be set?”

Xu Jiaoxi’s words are like golden words: “Whatever you want.”

Su Xi: “Sister, you are so indifferent, you are too…too so what, are you humble? I can’t tell the joy of your good grades in your words at all.”

Xu Jiao smiled, “You try to be like a customer service. After receiving dozens of calls, you can show me joy after receiving dozens of calls?”

Su Xi: “…Sounds so miserable Yazi.”

But Happy as Su Xi quickly turned her attention back and discussed the details of the celebration with Xu Jiao enthusiastically: “I want to call everyone who knows you, and celebrate with all the world, let the whole world know, my sister takes a test. A super, super good result!”

Xu Jiao sighed slightly: “You arrange it. I can only guarantee that I will be there. I don’t want to worry about other things. I have ears hurt. Go take a rest.”

“Okay, sister, wait for my news!”

…

Woke up at once.

Xu Jiao received the address from Su Xi.

It was the most extravagant clubhouse in the city, and she didn’t know how she got the relationship, and actually allowed a group of minors to be put in.

She shook her head without thinking too much. She stretched out from the bed, opened the closet, picked out a black hip-hop style top with silver edges and long decorative straps, and another light-colored shabby jacket. Hole jeans.

Before leaving, Xu Jiao casually touched the two hairpins and pinned them to her hair beside her ears.

The sky outside darkened, and it began to rain as fine as hairs. Before going out, Xu Jiao looked out the window and took a transparent umbrella and went out.

When I passed under the eaves while holding the umbrella, one or two heavy ticking sounds fell on the umbrella surface.

clatter.

clatter.

She walked from the dim yellow lights to the magnificent building.

The umbrella surface was slightly tilted, Xu Jiao raised her eyes to the sign to see if she had made a mistake, but her gaze lifted up, and she met a pair of exceptionally quiet eyes at the door, as if the night of the whole city had melted into it. .

Paint like ink.

It’s Shen Yelan.

At that moment, Xu Jiao thought in hindsight that they hadn’t seen each other for a long time.
