23 days before Christmas

"Young people don't know how to feel sad."

The young and beautiful boy (?) Liu Yiming is now suffering from lovesickness.

What a broken school, the military training will be moved to next year, and it will be a holiday after the first week of class-although it is a national statutory holiday... What's the point of a three-day holiday?Liu Yiming's home is hundreds of kilometers away, and Lin Zhixi is a local.Before the holiday, Liu Yiming asked Lin Zhixi, "I usually don't want to go home for two days on weekends, but I still have to go back to see my parents during this three-day holiday."

Just one more day...

Ugh......

Then yesterday afternoon, when Liu Yiming finished picking up the courier and was about to go back to the dormitory, Lin Zhixi suddenly sent a message—"I don't have class in the afternoon, so I went home directly."

The express boxes in Liu Yiming's hand almost fell to the ground, so let them fall on the ground, just in time to reply him with his hands free: "Where are you now?"

"I just left school." Lin Zhixi immediately added, "What's wrong? Are you coming to see me off?"

In the morning, Lin Zhixi was dragged away by her roommate, so she didn't go to have breakfast together.Then the morning class was completely staggered, and I couldn't go to lunch together.

I haven't seen you all day today...

Do you want to send him off?

I really want to go.

Want to see him.

Then student Liu Yiming, what are you hesitating about?up!

"Then I'll see you off." Liu Yiming hesitated for a full 3 minutes, typing and deleting a line of text, typing and typing after deleting, before pressing the "send button".

"Then where are you now?" Lin Zhixi asked.

"I just picked up the courier."

"The station over there? That's quite far."

It is indeed quite far.

Liu Yiming looked at the delivery boxes scattered all over the floor, and replied, "Why don't you wait for me?"

"I'm almost at the subway station..."

Long legs are good, walk so fast, don't even give me any time!

"Ah?" Liu Yiming's heart was full of disappointment, but he was powerless, "Okay then."

"Uh-huh."

Just reply "ummm", can you explain what this "ummm" means?I'm so lost and sad right now, you...

"Be careful on the road. Send me a message when you get home."

"Then what are you going to do now?"

Liu Yiming thought for a while, and replied: "Put the courier back in the dormitory, and then go eat."

"with who?"

It's none of your business who I eat with!Liu Yiming felt even more lost.

"one person."

"Otherwise?" Liu Yiming only felt that he was inexplicably uncomfortable, "I don't want to be with my roommates, and I can't chat with them."

"You are eating with others, and you still have to ask to be able to chat?" Lin Zhixi was obviously amused by such a sentence (Liu Yiming was so confused that he didn't know where the joke was), "Hahahahahahaha... "

Liu Yiming squatted down, feeling an inexplicable sense of powerlessness in his body. After thinking for a while, he was stunned for half a minute, but he only replied with one word: "En."

"Then I'm honored?"

Whatever you say is what it is.

"But today I ate breakfast, lunch and dinner alone." Liu Yiming conveyed his disappointment directly.

Lin Zhixi didn't reply for a long time, Liu Yiming stared straight at the phone screen for almost 5 minutes, then sighed, picked up the express boxes that fell on the ground one by one, and carried them back to the dormitory.

The door of the dormitory was not closed, just ajar, Liu Yiming kicked it open, and then threw the express boxes piled up like a hill on the bed—probably due to lack of strength, the big and small boxes hadn't touched the bed yet, Just "crash--" all the ground fell, and one of them hit his head.

Liu Yiming suddenly had a nameless anger in his heart, but he didn't know where to vent it - the dormitory was full of roommates who were quietly doing their own things - he could only suppress it.He bent down to pick up the packages and threw them on the bed vigorously.

"What's wrong with you? Have you eaten gunpowder?" Seeing that he was not in a good state, the room chief raised his head and asked casually.

Liu Yiming tried his best to make his expression look normal, and said, "No. It's just that nothing goes well today, and I feel panicked."

"Why did you throw all the packages on the bed?"

That’s right, why are all the shoes, toothpaste, notebooks, shampoo, and baking soda (it is said to be very useful for washing white clothes stains) all thrown on the bed?

Liu Yiming squeezed out a slightly embarrassed smile: "It seems so hahahahahaha..."

Then take it all down, take it apart one by one, and put each in its place.

His mind is in chaos now, his heart is in a panic, and he doesn't want to do anything—in short, he is inexplicably lost.

No matter how lost I am, my stomach will always call for food. I go out to eat something casually, and I don’t want to go back to the dormitory to listen to my roommates playing games with Lianmai, so I just wander around the school.

Everywhere is the shadow of Lin Zhixi.

Taking out her phone, Lin Zhixi still didn't reply.

The sense of loss in Liu Yiming's heart became even stronger—why did this happen?Why is it happening like that!

A word suddenly flashed in Liu Yiming's mind, Liu Yiming's heart beat faster, his ears felt hot, and he was even a little out of breath.He quickly shook his head - what the hell are you thinking!

At this time, a message suddenly popped up on the phone screen: "I'm getting off the subway."

Then came another one: "Have you eaten yet?"

Just as Liu Yiming was about to reply, the phone rang suddenly, and there was a string of unfamiliar numbers, which were still local.

"Hello? Hello, who are you?"

"it's me."

It's Lin Zhixi.

His voice was originally clear and pleasant, but when it came from the phone, two short words fell into Liu Yiming's ears, tickling his heart.

"Why didn't you reply to me just now?" Liu Yiming couldn't help but asked directly.

"I was thinking about how to get back to you. I fell asleep after thinking about it. Then I just woke up and arrived at the station."

Liu Yiming gritted his teeth and said, "You are really lucky, you have never sat or stood."

"It's just lucky hahahahaha... have you eaten yet?"

"have eaten."

"one person?"

"What do you say?"

"What to eat?"

"Eat something casually outside the school."

"What do you eat if you eat something casually?"

"You asked in too much detail... What to eat, what kind of noodles to eat."

"Eh..." Lin Zhixi was stunned, "Are you full?"

"You should be full. That burning noodle is quite authentic, it's the taste of my childhood."

"I haven't seen you all day today." Lin Zhixi said suddenly.

So you know.

"Alas..." Liu Yiming couldn't help but sighed.

"Why are you sighing?"

Liu Yiming murmured in a low voice: "I asked the question knowingly. I haven't seen you all day today. I can't eat well, and I feel panicked."

Lin Zhixi was silent for half a minute, and then said: "Then what are you going to do now?"

"Walking outside, walking around the school. Don't want to go back to the dormitory too early, it's noisy."

"I......"

"what happened?"

"I am home."

Liu Yiming was startled, and then he let out a long sigh of relief: "Then you must be tired after sitting on the subway for so long. So, go home and eat. Then, then... hang up?"

"I'm at the door, looking for the key."

"Have you found it?"

"It's in my trouser pocket, I don't want to take it out."

"for......"

"I don't want you to hang up..." Lin Zhixi suddenly raised her voice, "Going home, it's not interesting to go home. Just, just eat, stay with my parents, and then..."

Liu Yiming waited for Lin Zhixi's "then", but that guy stopped here for a full 20 seconds.Liu Yiming's heart was pounding, countless words couldn't come out of his mouth, and finally he only uttered three words: "Let's talk later?"

"Ah...Okay." Lin Zhixi's voice could not hide the disappointment.

Liu Yiming thought he hung up the phone resolutely, stuffed the phone into his trouser pocket, and strode forward with his head held high, with a calm expression and a chic movement like the wind in the late summer and early autumn.

He lowered his eyes, his heart filled with indescribable mixed feelings, and he felt like a wandering spirit on the street at night, floating around aimlessly, watching everyone passing by with a smile, and he was full of emotion. I can't hide the disappointment on my face.

It was a quarter past nine when he returned to the dormitory, and he was shocked that he had been able to wander around for so long.

Looking at the phone, no message popped up.

"Is it black?" Someone in the dormitory asked casually.

"Go!" Liu Yiming had just sat down on the stool, and he yelled hastily after hearing this, "Fifth row!"

"bring it on."

After quickly opening the room and making an appointment, Liu Yiming glanced at the friend list in that column - Lin Zhixi was not online.

Liu Yiming only plays mage and shooter, but due to lack of game awareness, his skills are always unstable.On the top, he was like a fish in water while exhaling fragrance, and casually won the gold medal with the super god MVP. On the bottom, he played a record of 0-11-2 and was scolded bloody by his teammates and reported one after another.

Liu Yiming's state tonight is obviously the latter.

Because they were all roommates playing gangsters together, even though they played poorly, it's hard to say too much—even though everyone lost points together, it was a bit too much.

Kneeling four times in a row, Liu Yiming sighed—"I'm sorry, I'm not in good shape tonight. Let's fight."

Roommates are more than welcome.

Liu Yiming got up and went to the bathroom, washed his face with cold water, and looked at himself in the mirror for almost 3 minutes——what's going on with you recently, Liu Yiming, what's on your mind all day long!

All, all thinking, Lin Zhixi.

What do you want others to do, you!

Liu Yiming was brushing his teeth when his phone rang, and it was Lin Zhixi who sent a message: "What are you doing?"

"brush teeth."

"Do you play games?"

Liu Yiming sighed and replied with a toothbrush and foam in his mouth, "I'm not feeling well tonight."

"I saw your historical record, it is indeed a bit tragic."

Do you still look at my historical record?Oh, Lin Zhixi, Lin Zhixi.Liu Yiming suddenly felt better.

"I don't know what I'm doing tonight, all the heroes I'm born to play are messed up."

"Then don't fight."

"Let's talk when I go to bed."

Liu Yiming finished washing quickly, changed his clothes and climbed into bed, covered himself with the quilt and took out his mobile phone. Lin Zhixi sent over a private link of the singing app - "Enchanted".

"You changed your signature that day, 'Iwasenchantedtomeetyou.'" Lin Zhixi noticed all of this.

The lyrics suddenly popped up in Liu Yiming's mind: "All I can say is I wasen chanted to meet you."

Thousands of words are finally turned into one sentence before they are spoken:

When I met you, I have been under a spell ever since.
