A mediocre little goblin's love story

The place where Lin Yiqing lives is not too far away, but it is a bit remote.The residential buildings here are very old and have been waiting for demolition, but after waiting for nearly ten years, there is no definite news whether they will be demolished or not.

There are still very old-fashioned convenience stores in the community, not a 24-hour chain, more like a grocery store.

Every Sunday, Lin Yiqing would watch the shop in the store, and watch her younger siblings do their homework by the way.There are not many customers in the store, and it is not busy, but it is inevitable that it will look a bit shabby for new friends.

Lin Yiqing originally didn't intend to let his classmates have such a close relationship with him, but Xue Hong's reckless approach made him unable to find a suitable escape route.He simply gave up on himself and thought, it is better to let Xue Hong know that he is a boring person as soon as possible, and he has no time and money to make friends with him.

After hanging up the phone, he dug out a few snowmen from the freezer and prepared to leave them to Xue Hong.

His younger brother was sitting on a small bench in the back corner doing homework. Seeing his movements, he yelled, "Brother, I want to eat too!"

"I can't eat it. My sister has a fever. If you eat these again, my aunt will blame you again."

"I'm not wrong, my mother scolded you."

Lin Yiqing lowered his head and stopped talking.Two days ago, he went to pick up his younger brother and sister from school. The younger sister had a fever. He hurriedly took her to the hospital. Because he was inexperienced and spent a lot of money, he was reprimanded by his aunt for a long time.Finally, let him hand in all the pocket money.

Although the younger brothers and sisters are little ghosts, they are still not really sensible.Facing the sudden presence of his elder brother at home, he was very dependent for a while, and would say harsh words at other times.

Lin Yiqing has long been used to it, and doesn't really want to have any hatred for her aunt's family.He just wanted too much to get out of this house early, it was better for everyone.But now he has no more than a few hundred dollars.On Saturdays he went to inquire about places to work.Most people disagreed when they heard that it was a part-time job, and some of them thought that he was too young, so they didn't ask for anything.

Soon after, Xue Hong and Xu Wei appeared in this small shop together.

Lin Yiqing noticed that the coat that Xu Wei was wearing seemed to be the one that Xue Hong had worn last time, and he didn't know if it was the same coat or the same style.His eyes didn't stay too much on those two people, and he always felt that it was not good for him to secretly speculate on the relationship between them.

As soon as Xue Hong came in, he showed Lin Yiqing the sandwiches he bought as if showing off, "We waited in line for a long time to get them, here's one for you!"

After speaking, he went to look at Xu Wei again, "Is it okay to eat here? Shall we eat with Lin Yiqing?"

Xu Wei looked at Lin Yiqing with questioning eyes.

Lin Yiqing didn't pay much attention, as there were no customers in the store at this time.

"Eat, I'll get you a stool."

Lin Yiqing went to the back to find a stool.Xue Hong and Xu Wei stood in place and looked at this small grocery store.

It really made Xue Hong see many snacks that he hadn't eaten for a long time.He went to pack them all into a basket, and as he turned, he noticed a little boy staring at him.The little boy looked seven or eight years old and didn't speak, so Xue Hong ignored him.

Lin Yiqing moved two chairs to the door so that Xue Hong and Xu Wei could sit down.He didn't expect Xue Hong to come here with Xu Wei, and he stood aside somewhat cautiously.

Xue Hong opened the sandwich bag, and the aroma came out again.The sandwich bread still has some warmth, but it will be cold if you don't eat it.

Xue Hong hurriedly took out one, handed it to Xu Wei, and gave another to Lin Yiqing.

Lin Yiqing refused, "I've already eaten."

"This is not rice." Xue Hong held the sandwich and raised it to Lin Yiqing's mouth as he spoke.

Lin Yiqing looked at the sandwich in embarrassment. Facing Xue Hong's expression that he was about to eat, he wanted to refuse again, but he heard his brother shout behind him.

"Brother, I want to eat."

Lin Yiqing frowned, "No."

This sound was extremely harsh. The child was wronged, and his face was wrinkled, and he was about to cry in the next second.

Seeing that something was wrong, Xu Wei took another sandwich from Xue Hong's hand and went to give it to the child. "Let's eat, we are your brother's classmates, not bad people."

The child timidly looked at his brother again, and seeing his brother standing there silently without speaking, he reached out and took the sandwich.

Xu Wei turned around and saw Xue Hong's aggrieved face, knowing that Xue Hong was unhappy.But he can only harden his heart, because once Lin Yiqing's younger brother really cries, Lin Yiqing will definitely be embarrassed, and they don't have to come again next time.

Fortunately, Xue Hong soon turned his attention to Lin Yiqing, and he still insisted that Lin Yiqing eat the sandwich.

Lin Yiqing did not refuse this time.He thought somewhat self-deprecatingly, he could not discipline his younger brother well enough, and he couldn't generously reward his classmates with other things, and if Xu Wei and Xue Hong's good intentions turned into embarrassment, he would really be ignorant of good and evil.

He quietly took a chair and sat beside the two of them.The warm sandwich in his hand tasted like nothing he had ever tasted.

Xue Hong chatted about the content of today's class.Only then did Lin Yiqing know that they had extracurricular tutoring.He inquired about the teachers, and it turned out that they were all students from normal schools.

"I hope that I can be praised by the teacher once the results of the final exam come out." Xue Hong said, looking forward to it.He has made rapid progress during this period, even Lin Yiqing's notes can be read more clearly, and the tutors also praised him.

"Yes." Lin Yiqing also encouraged him.

Xu Wei asked Lin Yiqing again: "You must study science, right?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet." Lin Yiqing replied truthfully.He didn't think about anything. On the surface, he almost didn't have any bias at all. It didn't make any difference to him to choose liberal arts or science, but the reality was that he didn't have the right to bias his subjects at will.His grades are directly linked to the scholarship. It doesn't really matter what he likes.Regarding the future, he seems to have no choice but to focus on money.

Xu Wei secretly observed Lin Yiqing, he liked Lin Yiqing's cool and cold demeanor, and he also liked Lin Yiqing's rationality and intelligence.But if he is really given a chance to get along, there is always a sense of cautious estrangement between the two of them, but it is not as generous and calm as the relationship with Xue Hong.Lin Yiqing also seemed to like Xue Hong more obviously.

Xue Hong also said that his birthday is coming soon, and he wants to exchange a gift with Lin Yiqing.

Lin Yiqingzheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that he seemed to have nothing to give away, and felt a little embarrassed for a while.

"It's just that we have a meal together. I rented a house off-campus. I can cook. Can you cook? It's enough for everyone to get together and have fun. Or we can just eat hot pot." Xu Wei saw Lin Yiqing's embarrassment , and immediately cleared the way.

Xue Hong thought that being able to eat food cooked for him was a gift, so he nodded happily.

Lin Yiqing bowed his head in thought, unable to refuse anymore. "I can cook, as long as there is a recipe, I can basically cook it. What do you want to eat?"

"Sparse ribs, I haven't eaten for a long time." Xue Hong became greedy after thinking about it, "Or Dongpo's elbow?"

Seeing that he was going to talk endlessly, Xu Wei quickly covered his mouth with a sandwich.

"Then let's talk about it, can you stay at my house next Saturday?"

Lin Yiqing nodded.

Xue Hong wanted to speak, but was glared at by Xu Wei, he didn't dare to say any more, and quietly ate his sandwich.

The three chatted a few more words about the homework assigned by the teacher recently, and Xue Hong and Xu Wei said it was time to leave.

Before leaving, Xue Hong also bought a lot of snacks and his snowman.Lin Yiqing paid the bill one by one. He really wanted to let Xue Hong take it all away and eat whatever he wanted, but he couldn't, not even give any discount.Because this is not his shop, he doesn't have any money.

When Xue Hong and Xu Wei came out of Lin Yiqing's place, it was already dark.

Xue Hong kicked a small stone on the ground, wanting to express his dissatisfaction. "Why give that kid my sandwich."

"I have already taught you that if you are afraid that others will eat your food, you should hide it and don't eat it in front of others. Now that you have taken it out, be ready to share it."

Xue Hong took out the snowman from the bag and tried to stuff it into Xu Wei's pocket, but Xu Wei pushed it away.

"I'll say it again! Don't hide any of your food on me, on my bed, I don't want to hide it for you!"

Xue Hong hummed softly, "Stingy."

"Dirty or not, you." Xu Wei remembered the time when he dug out some fried chicken under the pillow, and he was so angry that he scolded Xue Hong a few savages.

He only heard that cats in some people's homes would hide mice or bugs in the owner's bed, but he had never heard of real people hiding food in the bed.What's more, Xue Hong only likes to hide him on the bed and in his clothes, it's almost like deliberately annoying him.

"Then my birthday is obviously on Thursday, why do you say it's Saturday?"

"Are you stupid? When did you see Lin Yiqing not leaving after class? He definitely doesn't have time and won't go. He only has time in the library on Saturdays."

Xue Hong looked at Xu Wei with admiration. "You know a lot, you're amazing."

Xu Wei pushed his face away, and being stared at by such eyes made him feel uncomfortable all over, and he always felt that his heartbeat was about to become irregular.Sometimes when he thinks about it, he thinks that Xue Hong is hateful. Even though his eyes are so small, he can still have such a big influence on him.

Maybe it's because the final exam is less than a month away, and the teachers are putting pressure on the students every day, causing them to have endless homework and papers.Everyone has a kind of panic. It seems that if you do not do well in this exam, you will be assigned to a poor class when you are assigned, which will affect your major and your entire life.

Xue Hong has indeed made rapid progress, especially with the help of Lin Yiqing.Lin Yiqing no longer lends out her homework and notes easily, giving priority to Xue Hong and Xu Wei.

The three of them gradually became intimate.Lin Yiqing hadn't felt this kind of willingness to open his heart for a long time, he thought, he was envious of Xue Hong.Because Xue Hong is carefree, because Xue Hong is always taken care of by Xu Wei.

They sometimes get together at noon, and Lin Yiqing will go to the dormitory of Xue Hong and Xu Wei.

Most of the time Xu Wei would lie on the bed and read, while Lin Yiqing would help Xue Hong give lectures and eat some of Xue Hong's snacks for lunch.

He didn't talk to Xu Wei very much, the two of them met each other's eyes, and one of them would always move away first.In order to avoid embarrassment, the two of them often put their attention on Xue Hong.

Xu Wei was very rude when speaking, and would directly say that Xue Hong's brain is not clear, and his brain capacity is small, remembering the past but not the future.Lin Yiqing is very patient and calm at all times.

Xue Hong, who was cared for by the two of them all the time, these days are the most fulfilling and happiest.

He was looking forward to his birthday day by day, and when he woke up on Thursday, he saw the message Xu Chuan had sent him.

Xu Chuan said he wished him a happy birthday, and transferred him a big red envelope. He also drew a small fluffy animal, and it was hard to tell whether it was a puppy or a kitten.But Xue Hong was very happy, and immediately cut the little animal into a head portrait.

He always remembered Xu Chuan's kindness to him, so he inevitably felt sad again.After thinking for a long time, he plucked up the courage to ask Xu Chuan when he would get married.

Xu Chuan replied that he would not get married anymore.

Xue Hong jumped up from the bed all of a sudden, startling Xu Wei.

Xu Chuan also said that before, he was just doing a favor to his friends, but now that he doesn't need to help, he doesn't need to get married.

"Although I still like you very much, I think you should have the right to socialize with your peers first. If you grow up and you think you still like me very much, and I'm single, we can try to be together again." Xu Chuan After editing the text message several times, it was finally sent to Xue Hong like this.

He likes Xue Hong very much, but he has experienced such hardships and knows that when an immature teenager meets a person who is independent enough in both spirit and wealth, it is a completely unequal relationship to get along with.His love for Xue Hong is almost a kind of doting, but Xue Hong doesn't understand that kind of love is to establish the other party on an unequal position.

Xu Chuan did not claim to be an upright and kind person.He met many wrong people and did many wrong things in his life, so he couldn't bear to hurt Xue Hong.The first time he met Xue Hong, he unconsciously projected himself back then onto Xue Hong. No one treated him kindly, so he treated Xue Hong kindly.

So the night he took Xue Hong away from that bar, he was actually making up for his past self.But he also gradually realized that this was unfair to Xue Hong, so he wanted to wait for Xue Hong to grow up, and if the two of them really had a chance to be together at that time, it might be a kind of redemption for himself.
