23 days before Christmas

After Halloween, the relationship continued to heat up.

Passionate love, hot love, occasional quarrel, as a swap.

After class, Liu Yiming hopped to the appointed place, and saw the familiar blue schoolbag from a distance, his heart moved, and he trotted over.

This guy was wearing headphones and looking at his phone, but he didn't notice it at all.

Liu Yiming tiptoed slightly, covering Lin Zhixi's eyes from behind.

"Guess who I am?" Liu Yiming felt that he had suppressed his voice to the limit.

Lin Zhixi's palm covered the back of his hand, stroking back and forth twice, followed by a gentle and clear voice: "Baby, you..."

"What?" Liu Yiming continued to suppress his throat, and couldn't help pressing against his back twice.

"You..." Lin Zhixi coughed twice.

"What?" Liu Yiming felt that his throat was about to burst into flames, so he pushed it twice again.

"The sound is so ugly!"

Liu Yiming immediately pulled out his hand and pinched Liu Yiming's face, a little annoyed: "How could you react like this to such a romantic gesture? Are you sick?"

"Is it romantic? Which action do you say is romantic? The one in your hand is still..." Lin Zhixi turned around and looked at him, glanced down, raised her eyes and raised her eyebrows with a smile, "it seems It's all very romantic."

Lin Zhixi suddenly grabbed his hand, looked at it carefully several times, pouted and began to complain: "Look at your nails? You don't know how to cut nails?"

Liu Yiming looked down - the manicured nails were pitted, either broken here or bumpy there.

"Eh..." Liu Yiming pulled out his hand and rolled his eyes, "This is called art!"

Lin Zhixi looked at him, smiled without saying a word.

"Then you will cut it for me later?"

The distance between the two was less than a dozen centimeters, and the exhaled air from the other party landed on his cheeks, which was slightly itchy—Lin Zhixi raised the corners of her mouth, and leaned closer to blow into his ears: "Is this action too obvious?"

"I thought you were going to kiss me." Liu Yiming's ears were itchy and his heart was itching, and he blushed as he expected, and stepped back a few steps with his head down, "Is it fun?"

Lin Zhixi stretched out her hand and pinched his chin, said with a smirk, "It's quite fun."

Liu Yiming pinched his waist heavily, and raised his voice: "Are you annoying!"

"You think I'm annoying?" Lin Zhixi shook her head artificially, then sighed artificially, "Alas..."

"What sigh?"

Lin Zhixi rolled her eyes and said, "Are you still in a romantic mood? We're going to rehearse the show, not go on a date. I'm not in a good mood right now."

"Oh no!" Liu Yiming glanced at the time and pulled up the corner of his coat, "I'm going to be late! Can't you feel the tone of senior sister in the group just now? She doesn't seem to be in a good mood recently... ..."

Yes, rehearsal.

The welcome party is held in December, and their club is going to put on a show.

The senior who lured these two guys in back then had a headache recently because of this program that lasted less than 5 minutes.Judging from the first trial, the president of the student union was not very satisfied with their program. He watched the whole program with a serious face. After other seniors and sisters commented, he gave six words: "Be innovative, be exciting."——Six Word proverb, killing invisible.

Then the rehearsals in the previous few times were either missing one or the other, being late, leaving early, absent, and there was always a shortage of people--just now the seniors in the group threw it out "If you don't come to this rehearsal, this club will not be used in the future gone."

What is a weekly meeting that becomes a rehearsal every other day for a total of three times?

Liu Yiming and Lin Zhixi had a heated discussion on this for half an hour. Is this a dating time or a public-funded relationship?

In the end, they didn't discuss the reason, because the senior sister urged them to rehearse in the group with "deadly serial calls".

"Okay, everyone has worked hard tonight. Take a 10-minute break and continue at [-]:[-]!"

Take a 10 minute break...

Liu Yiming rolled his eyes and looked at Lin Zhixi who was a few meters away. The two of them gave a wry smile and shrugged at the same time.

Because it is not a major, there are really not many normal intersections. If you are too familiar, it will make others feel strange.Although this club is the beginning of their love and the old man who made the connection, these two students are very consciously abide by their duties. They can only forcefully suppress some thoughts of wanting to do bad things in their hearts. There is basically no physical contact and the distance is never less than Two and a half meters, at most one or two words, or one eye contact (in fact, there may be eighteen hundred eye contact in each regular meeting and rehearsal).

It doesn't matter if the schoolbags and water glasses are the same brand, after all, seven out of ten students on the street use the same model.But things like couple shirts and couple shoes are too obvious, they have to be put away in front of people, and today—the couple’s phone case, I forgot to take it off.

During the break time, Liu Yiming browsed Weibo with his mobile phone in his hand, while Lin Zhixi, who was a few meters away, stood dryly, with a complicated expression, and gave him two meaningful looks from time to time—finally he couldn't help but took out his mobile phone in the corner and sent Liu Yiming a message Message: "Forgot to change the phone case today..."

Liu Yiming glanced at his phone, his whole body petrified for three seconds, and quickly replied: "No wonder you just stood there stupidly and didn't look at your phone."

"Look how great I am."

"Then what are you doing now?"

"It's tiring to pretend to be unfamiliar."

"to beat."

"I can't wait to pounce on you."

"After a while, let you eat your fill."

Liu Yiming couldn't help laughing: "Forget it, it sounds so wretched."

"Ugly?"

"I'm talking about you, not me."

"Get out of here." Lin Zhixi is so fierce, "Avoid suspicion, avoid suspicion! Who are you, do we know each other well?"

"Hey? What the hell?" Liu Yiming raised his eyes and saw Lin Zhixi put away his phone, and gave him a vicious look.

Liu Yiming rolled his eyes, entered the scene for a second and devoted himself to the character setting of "I'm really not familiar with you", stopped looking at Lin Zhixi, turned to Lao Chen beside him, and began to forcibly find topics and chat.

After a few words, the rehearsal started again.

Liu Yiming was really dedicated, and he was still chatting with Lao Chen between rehearsals.

The kind that doesn't even glance at Lin Zhixi.

When it was almost ten o'clock, the senior finally showed a satisfied smile: "Everyone is great today, let's rehearse at the end!"

Liu Yiming yawned, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Lin Zhixi who was a few meters away—this guy had no expression on his face, frowning slightly, and he also glanced this way.

Liu Yiming's heart tightened.

"Have you written your thesis yet?" Liu Yiming turned his head and asked Old Chen beside him.

Lao Chen expressed shock: "What paper?"

"Mental hygiene, it's due tomorrow."

Old Chen's eyes widened, and he began to breathe out fragrance, while Liu Yiming laughed out of breath—during the last rehearsal, the two chatted happily until the senior sister announced today's The rehearsal is over.

Liu Yiming's right eyelid suddenly started to twitch, what's going on?At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Lin Zhixi walked out the door quickly with her schoolbag on her back—waiting for me?What's wrong with this product?

He trotted to catch up in three steps and two steps, and patted Lin Zhixi on the shoulder: "Why didn't you wait for me?"

Lin Zhixi turned her head: "What are you waiting for?"

What, what?

Liu Yiming was startled, and a smile appeared from the corner of his mouth: "Let's go together..."

"Aren't you going with that classmate Chen from your class?" Lin Zhixi frowned, her eyes were full of coldness.

Liu Yiming's heart sank, and it was difficult to understand this sentence. He paused and said, "Why should I go with him? What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? You ask me?" Lin Zhixi smiled coldly, and somehow raised her voice, "Don't bother me!"

These three words fell like a blow to the head, Liu Yiming froze in place, his mind went blank and he didn't know what to say.Lin Zhixi glanced at him, turned and left.

He just left?

what is this?

Is he jealous?

"Lin Zhixi!" Liu Yiming called to stop him—but he didn't turn his head, but quickened his pace and walked forward.

A sense of powerlessness suddenly surged through his limbs and bones, and Liu Yiming only felt his heart suffocate. Could it be because he deliberately ignored him during the rehearsal just now?Still chatting too happily with Lao Chen?No way, just kidding, really...

Liu Yiming couldn't help but sighed, standing there at a loss for what to do.At this moment, two girls from the club came over: "Lin Zhixi is in a bad mood?"

Liu Yiming was startled, and shook his head: "I don't know."

"When I just rehearsed, I felt that he was not in a good state."

"do not know......"

"Okay, then let's go first."

Liu Yiming was walking back to the dormitory with mixed feelings in his heart.He hadn't walked this road alone for a long time. When he was with Lin Zhixi, he always felt that the road was so short, and he arrived at the apartment building before he had even chatted a few words.But tonight, why did I walk for so long...

The late autumn wind rushed into his jacket, Liu Yiming couldn't help shivering, after thinking about it, he took out his phone and sent Lin Zhixi a message: "Are you jealous?"

"I thought it was just a joke, so baby."

Lin Zhixi still didn't reply until he returned to the dormitory, washed up and went to bed.

Why is he like this...

Wrapped in the quilt, Liu Yiming tossed and turned, not feeling sleepy, and took out his phone from time to time to see if Lin Zhixi had replied.

None.

"Baby, can you take care of me, please don't do this."

"I was wrong, I shouldn't have done this."

"I thought it was just a joke, so I ignored you on purpose."

"Lin Zhixi, are you sick? You! You have ignored me for three hours!"

"You are so annoying! It's 01:30 and I still can't sleep! It's all your fault!"

"I'm so bored, I still have class tomorrow!"

What the hell is this guy doing!

It's annoying!sleep!

Liu Yiming didn't remember when he fell asleep at all, but the dream last night was...

In the dream, the two were standing opposite each other across the road, leaving no gap between the passing traffic, Lin Zhixi had a strange smile on her face, she waved at him, then turned and left.

leave...
