Be gentle

While Huaran was waiting for the results of the first round of the competition, the new clerk was officially on the job.She came to the shop for a half-day trial class on the day of the flower dyeing competition, and Bai Wenxue was very satisfied. After negotiating with her, she was given two days to settle in, and she will officially go to work today.

Neither Huaran nor Bai Shuyi had seen this new employee before, so they couldn't help being curious.The same is to provide accommodation, Bai Wenxue asked Huaran to choose a place to live, but Huaran chose to go upstairs to the pharmacy.

She doesn't have high requirements for the size and environment of the house, and she thinks it's good to be here, whether it's out of habit or the convenience of going to work.More importantly, being upstairs in the pharmacy made her feel at ease.

Bai Shu would start classes in a few days, and the studies in the third year of high school were much more arduous than before, and he started to make up classes early in the summer vacation.

Huaran was a little uneasy about the arrival of the new employee, but when she saw the new employee, she had only one feeling: life is really full of coincidences.

"Hua, Huaran? Are you Huaran?"

"Meng Yun." Huaran smiled lightly, showing a friendly expression to this former high school classmate, "I didn't expect it to be you."

Meng Yun seemed very excited, took her hand and said: "I didn't expect that I would meet you, my God, this is such a coincidence... Are you okay?"

"Xiaoran, do you know Xiaomeng?" Bai Wenxue didn't expect such a coincidence, and felt that the coincidence was a good omen.

"Well, she and I are high school classmates."

Compared with Huaran's peace, Meng Yun was obviously more excited.

"Aunt Bai, we are friends, it's great to meet you again, I, I..."

Compared with the weak and inferior appearance of the past, Meng Yun is obviously more cheerful and confident now.Huaran felt that although he and her were not friends as she said at that time, they were very happy for her now.

"Don't talk about it, you put things away."

Meng Yun seemed to have just remembered that she came to work, and nodded in agreement.

Bai Shuyi looked aside for a long time, inexplicably feeling that something happened to the two of them.

"Hi sister Meng Yun, I'm Bai Shuyi, just call me Xiaobai."

Meng Yun heard Bai Wenxue say that she had a daughter, and seeing Bai Shu's beautiful appearance and well-behaved personality, Meng Yun immediately felt a little fond of her.

"Hi Xiaobai."

Because she and Huaran were old acquaintances, Bai Shuyi got closer to her and became more and more curious about her.Not only the curiosity about Meng Yun, but also the curiosity about Huaran when she was young.

"Sister Meng Yun, I often help out at the pharmacy. You will often see me when you work here in the future. Please give me your advice."

"Okay, please give me your advice."

Newcomers are old acquaintances, and the speed of integration is extremely fast.Meng Yun has the appearance of a typical Xiaojiabiyu, cheerful and easy-going, proficient in business, and hardworking. She was quickly loved by the Bai family and customers.

Hua Ran successfully entered the second round of the competition, and she was busier on weekdays. Bai Shu didn't dare to disturb her, and whenever he had time, he would chat with Meng Yun.

From Meng Yun's mouth, she gradually began to understand what Huaran looked like in high school.Excellent grades, hard work, solitary but kind and brave.

"Actually, I was not familiar with Huaran at that time, but she helped me when I was isolated by my classmates. I always wanted to find an opportunity to thank her."

When Bai Shu heard it, he felt distressed and excited at the same time, and sighed: "Sister Ran is really kind..."

Now that the store has hired two employees, Bai Wenxue has a lot of leisure.The small group organized by Bai Qiuyan was very active, and she also had more time for herself, but Bai Shuyi reported to the pharmacy every day because she had to attend classes.

Meng Yun seemed to have thought of something suddenly, her expression was unnatural for a moment, and then she said: "Yeah, she is really good."

Bai Shuyi likes to chat with her about Huaran, but Meng Yun knows what to say, but Bai Shuyi finds it strange that she is sometimes frustrated and reluctant to speak.

In sharp contrast to Meng Yun's enthusiasm, Huaran's peace and calmness, the happiness brought to her by meeting her high school classmates is not as great as Bai Shuyi imagined.But considering her reserved personality, Bai Shuyi felt that this was quite normal.

"Oh, it's almost time for dinner. I'll help sister Ran serve the dishes."

Huaran prefers to live here because of the convenience of cooking. At least she doesn't intend to hand over Bai Shuyi's meals to others, and she tries not to affect the cooking no matter how busy she is.

When Bai Shu touched it, Huaran was just packing cold noodles and appetizers. When Bai Shu saw her busy back, he felt a little happy and satisfied.

"Sister Ran." She walked to Huaran, and remembered that Meng Yun said that she was a loner in high school, and her heart softened.

"Xiaobai, you are here, just finished." Huaran didn't notice her emotion, just thought she was here to help, "You can just bring your own bowl, and I will take Meng Yun's."

Bai Wenxue asked Meng Yun to choose whether to subsidize the meal or eat it together, and Meng Yun chose the latter without hesitation.It's not too tiring to do one more job, Bai Wenxue still put this part of the money on Huaran.

"Sister Ran..." Bai Shu shyly stood aside and called her with a tired voice.

"Huh?" There have been a lot of things recently, and neither of them has much time to think about getting close or not, and since Meng Yun is new here, they don't have time to get close.

But this is almost to Bai Shuyi's limit.Although she wanted not to be too familiar with Huaran, she really couldn't stand being polite every day.

"You're so kind." In addition, after listening to Meng Yun's words just now, her love and pity for Huaran suddenly made her cross the line of defense.

Huaran hadn't dealt with Bai Shuyi's crookedness for too long, she didn't react at first, and it wasn't until the other party was almost sticking to her back that she suddenly realized that the two were a little too close.

"Why, why did you say this suddenly..."

Bai Shuyi was half a head taller than her, and when he stood close, he could hear the breath of his words.

"I just chatted with Sister Yun, and she talked about your high school days... Sister Ran, you are so kind."

Watching Bai Shuyi and Meng Yun quickly get acquainted and intimate, Huaran is like seeing her and herself in the past.Because of her deliberate estrangement from Bai Shuyi, on the surface it seemed that the two were even closer than they were.

To be honest, Huaran did feel a bit sour.She knew very well that neither Bai Shuyi nor Meng Yun could have that kind of affection for each other, but just being replaced as an older sister already made her sour.

She felt more deeply that to Bai Shuyi, she was no different from the other sisters.

But now, the other party's sudden intimacy not only made her feel at a loss, but also inevitably made her a little bit happy.

"What did she tell you..."

"A lot...Sister Ran," Bai Shuyi held her hand carefully, and said sincerely, "You seem to seldom talk about the past, but hearing it from others, let me know how good you are."

When Bai Shu thought of Hua Ran's words encouraging him to fight against school violence and her praise, he couldn't help but want to give her back the touch of being supported.Compared to himself, Hana Ranzai, who is clearly alone but still willing to lend a helping hand to classmates who are not familiar with her, is more worthy of praise.

There was no evil in this mood, and Bai Shuyi became more courageous.She has always regarded Huaran as her sister—or even her mother, but after hearing what happened a few years ago and what happened to Huaran who was similar to her own age, she couldn't help feeling a little bit of love for the young .

When hearing these things, Bai Shuyi wished to travel back to Huaran at that time and spend her lonely student life with her.Not only relying on her and acting like a baby to her, but also hoping to support her, encourage her, and pamper her.

But this is impossible, she is four years younger than Huaran, and she has known her for less than two years, and she treats her like a child.

Huaran felt that there was something wrong with Bai Shuyi, but she didn't know what was wrong.Ever since she found out what was on her mind, it became increasingly difficult for her to understand Bai Shuyi's actions.Because I will think wildly, and because I will try my best not to let myself think wildly.

"I didn't do anything..."

Bai Shu has a thin palm, slender fingers, and warm palm, holding Huaran's hand forcefully, making her blush uncontrollably.

The shy Huaran is more charming and lovable, Bai Shu's heart is itching slightly, but he can't help but have the urge to get close to her and torture her.

She is very familiar with this feeling, if it was like this in the past, she must have pasted it without hesitation.But now, she can't do this, because it will scare sister Ran.

The more he realizes how he thinks of Huaran, the more Bai Shuyi feels sad that she doesn't like him.

Seeing that Huaran was uncomfortable, Bai Shuyi let go of her hand, pretending to be relaxed and said: "I will help Sister Yun deliver the noodles, and I will come up to eat with you later."

"noob?"

Seeing Bai Shu leaving her back in a hurry, Huaran felt that she was getting farther and farther away from her.

It was the first time for Bai Shuyi to fall into this kind of long-term wavering sorrow, and he couldn't think of any other solution except patience.Although there are indeed many things that can distract her attention, as long as she has free time, she will think about them again.

She began to look up information by herself, read other people's experiences, and began to analyze herself.

What kind of feeling is liking?What about same-sex liking?Is it because of the illusion caused by being affected, or did I really like sister Ran?

She seemed to have an answer, but felt that she should have a clearer criterion for judging.

The more you cherish, the more hesitant you are, the less you dare to make rash judgments. What if you make a mistake and hurt sister Ran?

Then, Bai Shu thought of Mu Qianqian.

Isn't there someone around her who likes girls?

The author has something to say: Rival in love?

Meng Yun: No, I was just a small assist.

In the section on campus violence, it once appeared in the memories of Ran's sister. Unexpected!
