Secret Love · Orange Raw Huainan

Chapter 30 The Story Sister
The whole day's expenses were borne by Sheng Huainan, Luo Zhi felt very embarrassed, even though the other party's behavior seemed so natural, she still felt very embarrassed.

When they arrived at the "Money Leopard", they went to clean up separately, and when they put the dishes on a large table, she seized the opportunity and whispered: "Thank you today."

Sheng Huainan gave her a helpless expression and said, "Please, what are you thanking for?"

It's useless to talk too much, she knew he would understand, so she ate quietly and didn't explain anymore.

"If you really want to thank me, just tell me about a person who impressed you in your childhood as a thank you."

"Why? Sounds weird."

"But I also told you about my little queen last time. I think you have grown into the character you are now, and you must have had a very unusual experience when you were young."

"I'll say it again, psychology is not such a simple subject, don't guess everything on childhood trauma."

"Tell me, I want to hear it, and I promise not to laugh at you." It was the same tone as when she begged him to talk about his first love just now, but his performance was more coquettish.

Luo Zhi was embarrassed, nodded and said, "Okay, don't think the story is too boring."

She originally had the urge to tell him that story for a moment—but it seemed to be earlier, and it seemed that the current him had no way to understand her.A heart-to-heart connection is an unrealistic dream.

She lowered her head and thought for a while, and kept poking the fish on the plate with her fork.

"When I was young, I had a young lady whom I admired and liked very much."

Her beginnings are dull.

"It's not little brother..."

"Don't come!"

Sheng Huainan smirked and waved his hands.

"When I was five years old, my grandma's old house was moved. My mother and I temporarily rented a small house and lived in a bungalow compound on the outskirts of the city. That place has now become a development zone, but when I lived there it was still Dirt roads, in spring, the dust kicks up and hits the face, which makes people blind. When playing "red lights, green lights, little white lights" with friends, you will step on dog shit. After the rain, the road is muddy and difficult to move. It is really not good place. But I always think it is very beautiful there, there will always be a rainbow after it rains, surrounded by bungalows, there are no buildings that can block the rainbow, so the sky is vast. I finished watching it, so that when I grew up, I could only see incomplete fragments near the fountain. At that time, the rainbow was so beautiful and complete, spanning the sky like a bridge. Many of our children always discussed together, what is under the rainbow? What? The unanimous conclusion is Tianchi." Luo Zhi laughed, and suddenly came to her senses, "Ah, sorry, I digressed."

Sheng Huainan listened carefully, shook his head and said, "No, you continue."

His expression was extremely serious, Luo Zhi was slightly nervous.

"My little friends don't go to kindergarten, and the adults in the family often drink and fight, so they are all left alone.

"Our leader is Sister Story.

"My sister is already in elementary school. As far as I remember, she is not beautiful at all. But she has a good friend who is very beautiful-but this is the impression at the time. Now that I think about it, the so-called beautiful is just because she always wears skirts and wears a ponytail. There are always bright red head flowers. Oh, and there is a boy, who is their classmate, and the three of them always go to and from school together."

"You know what happened later, right? A love triangle." Luo Zhi laughed.

"That day, my sister once again absent-mindedly told us a story, and the words didn't match up. When the story ended, I quietly asked her behind someone else's back: 'Sister, are XX and XX not getting along with you?'

"I can see it because these two people haven't appeared for a long time. Occasionally, when they pass by our group of little children, they just look at Sister Story indifferently. The girl always snorts and turns her head away proudly." .

"Sister Story was still young at that time, and it was really difficult to hide her emotions. When she heard my eighth-law's question, her eye circles immediately turned red, and she said, 'How do I know?'

"One night, another little girl and I witnessed the story's elder sister arguing with those two people. I remember the beautiful girl's red hair flashing and flashing under the street lamp. She raised her head and said in northern dialect, vigorously. of.

"Our two little girls immediately rushed to defend our goddess, but their conversation was beyond my comprehension.

"I don't like to ask why since I was a child. Anyway, adults say that they will know when they grow up, so I persistently believe that growing up is the answer to everything. I will remember everything that I didn't understand at the time, and remember it firmly. Yes, and then wait to grow up. Maybe this is the reason why I have a very clear memory of that time. An elder said that this is how people’s obsessions often start, because even if children can be sensible, they can’t understand through."

Sheng Huainan's eyes flickered for a moment, but Luo Zhi didn't see it, and continued:

"So I didn't ask why their conversation at that time, but I remembered it very vividly, even though I was confused.

"The sister of the story said: 'Hi, you two, I have no objection, why are you doing this to me?' The beautiful sister immediately retorted: 'Don't pretend you don't know anything, don't care about anything, don't you just like ××, your point I still can't see what's on your mind? Do you think I don't know about the bad things you did yourself, sowing discord?'

"Sister Story became anxious all of a sudden, and said: 'Who said I like him?'

"The boy xx who has been standing by the side playing cool and not talking suddenly said: 'Do you dare to say that you really don't like me?'"

Speaking of this, Luo Zhi and Sheng Huainan laughed together.

"Thinking about it now, the expressions and tone of those people are both childish and artificial, and even the purpose of bickering and quarreling has taken a backseat. The key is that they finally have the opportunity to act like adults in TV dramas.

"However, there is no denying that they are serious.

"Those two people also have a young man, only one. So I and the other little girl joined the battle, but the opponent was the young man next to them. Although I don't talk much, I am famous in the yard With sharp teeth and sharp mouth, he belongs to the kind of child who behaves like a cat when he sees adults, and is fierce like a vulture when he sees children. Our verbal battle is basically maintained at "Why do you help them and not Sister Story?" 'I'm happy', 'I'm happy to eat farts', 'Boom you two miles', this kind of endless loop. But we both won in the end. It's super beautiful to win.

"My sister in the story lost quite badly, and she ran to a place where I couldn't find her to cry. She was very kind to me, better than anyone else, but I could only use low-level swearing to help her.

"I still remember the story she told me, the story of the female college student who fried the wolf's brain and ate it when she was doing biological experiments, and then ran to the laboratory every night to steal the corpse, and the story of the The angel who fell in love with mortals cut off his one-meter-long blond hair in order to save his lover's life, and died gloriously. There is also the most beautiful boy in the world in the village where the base of the Rainbow Bridge is located, and so on.

"I like that elder sister very much. She swears that these stories are written in some world famous book, but she has forgotten the title of the book. In fact, these are dreams made by herself. She is the angel. She met the boy. In today's words, it's just YY. I don't know if you will understand, but in fact, she has a very rich inner world, but she is just too lonely.

"But now I think, she should be too addicted to her own story. She is getting more and more withdrawn, the children don't like the scary and gloomy stories she tells, and the classmates in the school don't seem to like her very much, so, only I often sit with her. However, there is a six-year difference between us, it is not easy to become friends, and I cannot save her loneliness.

"But on the contrary, she can make me not lonely. I told her a secret, a secret that I couldn't tell anyone for a long time. I don't know if she will make this secret into other stories, But I believe that it is safe to keep the secret with her.

"A neighbor aunt told my mother that I'd better stay away from her, her father was mentally ill, and no one in the family cared about her.

"Fortunately, my mother didn't restrict my contact with her. In fact, I can't remember the appearance of the story sister. I only remember the last few days. I was going to move, and I sat on the passenger seat of the truck and looked back. The story sister I waved to me with a group of wild children. She cried, and I cried too. She said, Lolo, you must be a very promising person in the future. Lolo, don’t forget the story my sister told you, and also Don't forget about my sister.

"She even said that I might be the only person in the world who remembers her.

"When I was in high school, every time I wrote an essay, whether it was a narrative essay or an argumentative essay, I would make up a lot of things. The teacher asked me which celebrity's deeds a certain argument was based on, and I would say that it was in a certain book. What I saw in the book, I forgot the title of the book. In fact, I really developed a lot of bad habits with her. For example, thinking wildly and lying."

Luo Zhi stopped, looked at the thoughtful Sheng Huainan, and said, "Isn't it boring?"

He shook his head solemnly: "Not at all."

Luo Zhi heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

"However, you just said that you also told the story sister a secret, what is it?"

She was startled, and shook her head instinctively: "I have long, long ago, forgotten about the little brat."

The relaxed dinner atmosphere was still disrupted by Luo Zhi's inexplicable memory, but unlike their first meal, the silence this time was not awkward, but rather a tacit understanding.

"Speaking of composition, I remember when you were in high school, you seemed to write very well."

Luo Zhi raised her head suddenly, Sheng Huainan was startled.

"Isn't it, you're so excited because I just praised you?" He laughed.

Luo Zhi withdrew her gaze, and asked softly, "Have you seen it? To be honest."

Sheng Huainan was a little puzzled, but he still told the truth: "At that time, the Chinese teaching and research group always sent us excellent compositions for us to read. I didn't read any of them. They were all used as calculation papers because there were no words on the back. Sorry."

"What is there to be sorry about? Compositions are the same, fake and vulgar." Luo Zhi lowered her head and said hastily.

"By the way, are you in a hurry to go back to the dormitory? On the way back, let me take you to a place, okay?" Sheng Huainan suddenly approached her, with a sincere light flowing in his eyes.

On the top floor of the science building, Sheng Huainan tried his best to pull the iron door a few times, leaving a lot of dust on his hands, but unexpectedly, it was still tightly locked and remained motionless.

"It's usually not locked." He sighed, and turned back to find Luo Zhi in annoyance. Unexpectedly, Luo Zhi walked away a few steps and ran to a distance to open a window at the end of the top floor.

"There is no lock here!" She laughed heartily.

Then he took the lead to climb up the window sill, the cat's waist got through, and landed lightly.

The cold and refreshing air filled her chest, and the air current made her suffocate for a moment.Her hair was flying up, blocking her sight, she finally held it down with her hands, opened her eyes, and the gorgeous scenery came into her eyes, and she was caught off guard.

The science building is close to the north gate, and the view from the platform just divides the inside and outside of the school into two distinct worlds—half of which is the quiet and dark night in the campus. The dormitories and teaching buildings are like islands protruding from the sea, stable and quiet; while the other half is brightly lit in the commercial area, and the river of jewels made of car lights slowly passes through the bright and dazzling buildings, proud against the dark night sky.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

Sheng Huainan's breath was right next to her ears, she shuddered, she wanted to turn around, but she couldn't bear it.

"Like it?"

Luo Zhi nodded vigorously, and suddenly remembered that her back was facing him, how silly.

For a long time, they watched the two worlds silently without saying a word.

"I... I like to stand on a high place and look at people below. I don't know why. What I said... is not just really standing on a high place and blowing the wind. You know... Seems like looking at things from that angle, just It must be clearer. In fact, I can't tell."

It was the first time he confided these chaotic but deep thoughts to her, and she naturally felt warm in her heart, cherishing and cherishing them.

"Me too, but I was forced to do so before."

"forced?"

"I feel uncomfortable in the crowd, and I can't get along. Maybe it's because I had too few friends when I was young, so I didn't know how to blend in. There were fewer and fewer friends, so I simply stopped embarrassingly pleasing the central characters in the group, and then I played alone. , more and more marginalized. But just like looking at others from a high place, I took the initiative to choose to climb up, and then slowly transformed from a lonely and rejected outsider to a different person standing above the crowd, It seems that in this way, you can be blatantly lonely, extraordinary and unearthly lonely, you don’t need to be pitied by others, and you even feel satisfied. To put it bluntly, it’s just a habit, and these simple states are just for the sake of looking better. Giving it a special meaning seems to be truly otherworldly.”

She became confused while talking, and smiled embarrassedly as if she woke up, and said, "What about you? You shouldn't be an outsider who was rejected, right? You have the right to choose."

Sheng Huainan turned his gaze to some distant lights to the south.

"It always feels like you have known me for many years."

Luo Zhi originally felt that she didn't know the depth of her last sentence, and hurriedly apologized for the presumptuousness of that sentence, but when she looked up, she saw his kind and regretful smile.

"You'll catch a cold if you blow it for too long, let's go—as long as you like it, I come here often, let's go together in the future."

Later, together.

Luo Zhi smiled and said, "Okay, we've agreed."
