heartstrings

Sheng Ruqi simply replied to Lin Yan with one word: "No."

Left, graceful and graceful.

Lin Yan stood in the same place coldly, bored, she took out her mobile phone, struggled with several numbers for a while, and then chose one to dial out.

A young girl answered the phone...

On lonely nights, Mr. Lin would naturally not be idle. She found that she seemed to be interested in this type of little girl recently.

Ke Ruochu took Sheng Ruqi to Ayou's shop again.

When you don’t know what to eat, come here. The home-cooked food is not greasy, and it is clean and healthy.In this way, Sheng Ruqi also became a regular visitor.

Seeing that Ke Ruochu often brought this beautiful woman to dinner, Ayou secretly asked Ke Ruochu if she wanted to chase Sheng Ruqi?When Ke Ruochu heard this, she blushed and shook her head repeatedly to deny it, saying that Sheng Ruqi was just her sister.

Ah You said, it doesn't look like it.

In fact, when Ke Ruochu said this, she was also guilty. Although she always said that Sheng Ruqi was her elder sister, did she really only regard Sheng Ruqi as her elder sister?

Occasionally, when I can't have dinner together, I always think about her, worry about whether she eats on time, and quietly pay attention to what she likes to eat and what she doesn't like to eat. As long as I receive her messages and calls, I can be happy for a long time without reason... …

Ke Ruochu felt more and more that she seemed to have the idea of ​​"crossing the border" towards Sheng Ruqi.

So every time he had dinner with Sheng Ruqi, Ke Ruochu felt a little entangled in his heart, and couldn't help but wonder, would she not only treat herself as a younger sister?After all, she seemed a little too good for herself.

However, no matter how turbulent her heart is, Ms. Ke can still act as if nothing had happened on the surface. She was able to remain calm even after she had a crush on her for three years.

At ten o'clock in the evening, there were still many people running laps on the school playground. Ke Ruochu ran four kilometers in one breath, panting and walking slowly on the track.

Gained two pounds this week.

Sheng Ruqi loves to "feed" her, and always says that seeing her eat has an appetite, so Ke Ruochu eats more than usual.Ke Ruochu touched his stomach, feeling that if he continued to eat like this, his stomach would come out.

After finishing stretching, Ke Ruochu took a bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and walked slowly towards the postgraduate dormitory. The evening breeze was blowing comfortably.

Go back to dorms.

Ke Ruochu immediately took the mobile phone on the desk and looked at it.

There are several unread messages on WeChat, only to click in, only to find out that it was from R&D Lin:

[Sister Yan] We will go to the beach for two days at the beginning of next month

【Sister Research】Bai Meng and her sister are also together

[Sister Yan] Are you going?

The vacation activities arranged by the company can bring family members. Lin Yan specifically said to call Bai Meng and Sheng Ruqi, just because he was afraid that Ke Ruochu would be shy when the time came to make an appointment with Ke Ruochu alone.

Ke Ruochu originally wanted to say no, but when she saw that Bai Meng and Sheng Ruqi were going too, mainly Sheng Ruqi, after thinking about it, she replied to Lin Yan: "Okay, I also want to go to the beach to play."

Seeing that Ke Ruochu finally agreed this time, Lin Yan was full of plans.

It was only after going there that Ms. Lin realized that... She was really digging a hole for herself.

The next day, Saturday.

There are classes in school.

The afternoon sun was lazily basking.

Ke Ruochu sat in the last row of the classroom, resting his head on his hands. He was drowsy and his eyelids were heavy. In addition, the professor's lecture was like a lullaby, and he could hardly keep his eyes open.

I worked the day shift all day yesterday, but my colleague on the night shift had something to do at home, and Ke Ruochu helped him take the night shift all night.

She is soft-tempered and easy to talk, and she is a graduate student who came to study, so it is easy for others to think of her immediately when things like this happen.

She didn't sleep for two or three hours when she returned to the dormitory this morning, and she had to cheer up to go to school in the afternoon, so she wasn't sleepy.

dong dong dong-

The sound of knuckles tapping on the table.

Ke Ruochu woke up with a start, and suddenly opened his eyes, in front of him was the professor's black suit stained with chalk dust.

Professor Xu adjusted his glasses frame, with a serious face and a rough voice: "Be serious in class."

Under the eyes of the crowd, Ke Ruochu straightened up, very embarrassed, he didn't know when he fell asleep and how long he fell asleep.

She checked the content on the PPT in a daze, only to realize that three pages of the book had already been spoken.

There are two courses in the afternoon, four classes, and it is already evening after the class is over.As soon as the get out of class bell rang, Ke Ruochu hurriedly packed up his books and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the classroom door, he ran into Professor Xu head-on, "Xiao Ke, don't go, just follow me."

The worst thing happened.

Professor Xu and her mother are old classmates, and they usually take great care of her, and even "take care" of her in class roll call.Then, Ke Ruochu was dragged and trained for more than half an hour despite his sleepiness.

In the evening, Ke Ruochu first went back to the dormitory, and then went home. She didn't go home for a meal for a while.

Although it was always easy to get into trouble with Yuan Luzhi every time she went back, Ke Ruochu couldn't bear not to go back, her mother was strong in everything, but she was actually very lonely.

Been alone for so many years.

Ke Ruochu hoped that Yuan Luzhi would find someone to remarry, but Yuan Luzhi didn't have this kind of idea, and only focused on her.

Yuan Luzhi worked overtime and had an operation. She bought vegetables and arrived home at 07:30. By the time dinner was ready, it was already past eight o'clock.

The meals on the table are rich but not delicious.Yuan Luzhi is not good at cooking. Before the divorce, her husband cooked it. After the divorce, she took her daughter with her and started cooking by herself.

Everything Ke Ruochu eats is delicious, which is inseparable from Yuan Luzhi's cooking skills. In order to make her mother happy, no matter what Yuan Luzhi cooks for her, she can eat it with relish and say it is delicious.

"Eat pork ribs." Yuan Luzhi put a piece in Ke Ruochu's bowl.

Ke Ruochu saw that she was not in a good mood, so he ate a mouthful of pork ribs and praised with a smile, "It's delicious."

Just took two bites.

Turning the topic...

"I heard that the list of scholarships has come down?"

The mood has changed a bit.

Ke Ruochu put a small mouthful of rice into her mouth, and when Yuan Luzhi spoke, she bit the tip of her chopsticks lightly, "Yeah."

Yuan Luzhi lowered her head to pick up the food, her face expressionless: "Didn't get it?"

Ke Ruochu was silent for a while.

Yuan Luzhi didn't eat either, but just stared at the three dishes on the table, and kept talking, "How can I get the son of Director Niu and Director Ma? If someone asks you, I don't have the face to say it."

The voice was not too loud, but the more he spoke, the more gloomy his face became.

Ke Ruochu wanted to come back to have dinner with her once in a while, and didn't want to make the atmosphere too tense and unhappy, "I... work hard this semester."

"Work hard to sleep in class?" Yuan Luzhi raised her head, casually threw the chopsticks in her hand on the table, and said in a serious tone, "Professor Xu told me that you have completely embarrassed me."

"I was last night..."

"Apart from making excuses, what else do you know?" Yuan Luzhi didn't give Ke Ruochu a chance to speak, and she scolded Ke Ruochu like a cannonball: "What did you learn in school? Look at your grades, I really don't have the face to call you My daughter, others say that I can't even teach my own daughter..."

Ke Ruochu's words got stuck in her throat, and she didn't want to say anything more. She and her mother would never be able to communicate unless it was according to her mother's wishes.

Yuan Luzhi had high expectations for her, but she was just ordinary, she couldn't do anything top-notch, and she couldn't fulfill her mother's wish.

Seeing that Ke Ruochu remained silent, "Did you listen to me?"

Every time she mentions herself, she is either shameless or unable to hold her head up. Ke Ruochu is naturally displeased when she hears it, she sniffs, and simply angrily says, "You just have a useless daughter, what can you do?!"

The atmosphere inevitably became tense.

"I was tired in the hospital all day, and I cooked for you without taking a break when I got home, just to hear you lose my temper with me?"

Ke Ruochu felt even more uncomfortable when she heard that. She put down the job in her hand and got up sullenly. She really didn't want to stay at home any longer. "I have something to do. I'm going back to school."

Just come back and leave.

"Stop," Yuan Luzhi was even more annoyed when she saw Ke Ruochu's angry appearance with herself, "I'm your mother, why can't I say anything? I raised you so much, and I can't even say a few words about you? Why don't you just throw you away?" Leave it to your father, I can live easily."

Ke Ruochu stood stiffly, frowning, nose sore.

Yuan Luzhi also realized that what she said was serious.

Taking a breath and calming down a little, Ke Ruochu didn't continue to argue with Yuan Luzhi, but his eyes were a little red, "I'll still live in school in the future, and I won't go home, so as not to make you angry."

Yuan Luzhi remained silent and continued to eat, tasteless.

Ke Ruochu silently went back to the bedroom to get her bag, and she really left, she thought to herself, maybe she and her mother would live more comfortably without seeing her mother.

Back at school, Ke Ruochu walked around the artificial lake of the school alone, absent-mindedly, for most of the circle. The people walking around her were in twos and threes, making her even more lonely even if she was alone.

Stomach starts to growl.

After eating dry bread at noon, I went to class, and I only ate two or three bites for dinner.

Ke Ruochu first thought of eating.

I want to eat with her, it seems that at this time, I want to see her even more...

A small open space in front of the dessert shop.

A round table and a few chairs were set up, and Sheng Ruqi and Lin Yan sat chatting and drinking. The night sky is beautiful tonight, and the lake breeze is also pleasant.

Sheng Ruqi thought that Lin Yan's 3-minute enthusiasm for Ke Ruochu should have passed. After all, she saw Lin Yan kissing a woman in the elevator a few days ago, but she didn't expect Lin Yan to mention Ke Ruochu again tonight.

"...I asked her to go to the beach next month, and she agreed." Lin Yan sipped his red wine, tilted his head slightly, and smiled proudly.

"Don't you have a girlfriend? Why, do you still want to play with two boats?"

"What girlfriend?"

Sheng Ruqi reminded: "Last time, in the elevator."

Lin Yan explained easily, "I drank too much that day, it was an accident."

What she said last time was serious, Sheng Ruqi thought Miss Lin was serious, she drank the wine in the glass in a muffled voice, and then asked Lin Yan, "Why did she suddenly agree to you?"

Lin Yan blinked, "The little girl is interested in me."

Just as she was talking, Sheng Ruqi's cell phone on the table rang, and the screen lit up, with a striking "Little White Rabbit" written on it.

"Little white rabbit... what's going on?!" Lin Yan reached out to get the phone.

Sheng Ruqi took the lead.

took the phone.

Glancing at Lin Yan, Sheng Ruqi got up and walked aside to pick her up.

In the end, Ke Ruochu couldn't hold back and called Sheng Ruqi. This was the second time she called Sheng Ruqi on her own initiative.

"Hey?"

Ke Ruochu suddenly didn't know what to say.

Sheng Ruqi asked again: "What's wrong?"

"I..." Ke Ruochu lowered his head, and lightly rubbed his toes against the stones on the gravel road, "Let me ask you... did you have dinner on time tonight?"

Sheng Ruqi was quiet for a moment after hearing Ke Ruochu's voice.

she didn't speak...

Ke Ruochu suddenly felt that she was too boring to talk to, would she find herself annoying?After all, she is so busy.For more than a second, Ke Ruochu thought a lot, and he didn't know what to say anymore.

Sheng Ruqi asked in a low voice, "Did you feel wronged?"

When it came to his heart, Ke Ruochu was still habitually stubborn, "No..."

"Why cry when you are not wronged?"
