Back to the past to fall in love [system]

The library is old, and some of the cement on the outer wall has peeled off, revealing mottled red bricks, and some dark green and crimson creepers are lying on their stomachs.

The library has four floors in total, the first floor is the reading room, and the upper three floors are all kinds of books.

Since the three of them came to study, they went directly to the reading room on the first floor. Because it was a weekend, there were a lot of people in the reading room, and the three of them managed to find a seat where the three of them could sit.

Seeing Xu Ziran sit down first, Tian Jiaqi quickly sat beside Xu Ziran, Qiu Yurou was stunned for a moment, and had to sit opposite.

The table was about half a meter wide. After Qiu Yurou sat down, she always felt that when she lowered her head, she could touch the same lowered head of Xu Ziran opposite her. For some reason, she felt uneasy and kept looking up at Xu Ziran.

Sometimes Xu Ziran noticed it, so he raised his head and smiled at Qiu Yurou.

When he smiled, his eyes were slightly bent, and there was a section of sunshine on his eyelashes.

Qiu Yurou began to not understand what topics she was working on, she was thinking all over her head, Xu Ziran is so pretty, no wonder others want to be friends with her.

So now, are the two of them friends?

Qiu Yurou is not sure, since she was a child, she has always been the one hated because of certain things, so now she is confused about what it feels like not to be hated.

But at least one thing she can be sure of is that she hopes to continue to get along with Xu Ziran.

People in the library came and went, and when they looked up again without knowing it, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xu Ziran actually didn't realize that so much time had passed, but when she got stuck on a topic, Tian Jiaqi suddenly bumped her arm with an elbow, and handed over a piece of draft paper and said softly, "Guess this is What."

Xu Ziran thought that Tian Jiaqi was thinking about the problem, and was about to say that she might not know, when he saw a cartoon head drawn on the draft paper, with short hair, big eyes, and a long neck.

Xu Ziran replied: "You yourself?"

Tian Jiaqi said: "Of course not, I drew you."

Xu Ziran: "..."

Next, Tian Jiaqi drew a dog, a cat, and Qiu Yurou to ask her what she drew, and when she heard rustling noises from the side for the fourth time, Xu Ziran finally realized that Tian Jiaqi was probably bored.

The weekend homework has been done, and she doesn't want to continue doing homework and reading, that's why she keeps attracting Xu Ziran's attention. She definitely didn't come to disturb Xu Ziran on purpose, but just couldn't sit still.

She sighed and was about to speak, when she suddenly saw from the corner of her eye that Qiu Yurou was not doing any questions, but was looking intently at Tian Jiaqi's draft paper.

Xu Ziran looked at the exercise book in Qiu Yurou's hand, and found that the other party had only done five questions in such a long time just now.

So it seems that Qiu Yurou's efficiency today is also quite unsatisfactory.

Since they were no longer interested in studying, it's better to just relax, Xu Ziran closed the book and suggested to go for a stroll outside.

Tian Jiaqi's face lit up all of a sudden, vividly expressing the meaning of "I've been waiting for your words for a long time".

About a thousand meters away from the library, there is a commercial pedestrian street. In Xu Ziran's impression, this street is selling some girls' things. When I came back today, I found that there are actually many brand stores and electrical stores here. Restaurants and the like, but probably because I couldn't afford other things and I wasn't interested in other things back then, so I selectively ignored them all.

People can only see what they want to see.

Xu Ziran is not very interested in shopping. Tian Jiaqi liked shopping in the past, but now she is even less interested. Originally, she wanted to buy clothes. After entering two clothing stores, she was scared away by the terrible aesthetics inside. Finally, she thought about the situation of the wardrobe at home. , I still decided to buy a T-shirt that goes with everything, so I went into a certain store, chose the most plain white T-shirt, and asked the owner: "How do you sell this one?"

The shop owner was sitting at the counter eating melon seeds, looked up and saw three pretty little girls, all of whom looked quite clean, and said, "Eighty, don't look at the mediocre style, but you can tell by touching the material that it's worth it. "

She actually likes to do business with little girls, because although little girls don't have much money, they are thin-skinned and embarrassed to bargain.

Unexpectedly, this time she met a strange person.

Xu Ziran didn't even raise his eyebrows, and said, "Twenty or not?"

Shopkeeper: "..."

Even Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou felt that she had bargained too much, and cast surprised glances at her.

But Xu Ziran was not aimless, she touched the clothes, up to [-], out of the general principles of bargaining, first shouted a little lower, to leave a little room for both of them to retreat.

Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't speak, she said, "I really want to buy it. This dress is worth the price. I still understand."

The shopkeeper knew that he met someone who was knowledgeable, so he said helplessly: "Twenty is too low, let's forty."

"25."

"..."

The two went through a tug-of-war, and the final [-] deals were exactly Xu Ziran's psychological price.

When Xu Ziran bought the clothes, he was not very happy, but rather melancholy.

If it weren't for the fact that he only had fifty on hand, why did he cut it so hard?

Xu Ziran felt that the price difference was very common, but both Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou seemed to be surprised by her, and asked her for tips on bargaining while shopping.

Xu Ziran doesn't have any knack for bargaining. When she has no money, she buys few clothes. When she has money, she doesn't buy clothes that can be bargained. Tian Jiaqi taught her to bargain in the first place.

When she first went to college and had spare money, Tian Jiaqi would often come to Xu Ziran's school to look for her, and the two of them ate all over the University Street, and visited one wholesale market after another.

At that time, they didn't even know how to bargain, so they asked the price of clothes from store to store, and they refused to buy them. Sometimes they met bad-tempered shopkeepers and chased them up to scold them, and they ran away holding hands, and then haha laughing out loud.

Thinking about it carefully, it should be that I have shopped a lot, and I have a rough estimate of the different materials and methods of all the clothes in my heart. In addition, I have made clothes later, so before I know it, I already know that a piece of clothing is really available. what is the price.

This is not a trick that can be taught in a few sentences, Xu Ziran still didn't say it in the end.

When she thought about the future, she couldn't help but feel sad again. When she saw Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou turning into a jewelry store, she felt as if she saw her former self.

I used to feel happy and interesting doing these things, but now I am tired.

Sure enough, after a certain age, if you do the same things again, you will not have the same happiness. This is probably what the ancients said-if you want to buy sweet-scented osmanthus and carry wine with you, it will not be the same. .

...Of course, the reason for the fatigue may also be that these accessories are too ugly, and I am tired-it turns out that the aesthetics is ahead of the public, it is such a tiring thing, Xu Ziran is now very afraid that he will be assimilated by these terrible aesthetics, So I couldn't help but cast a scrutiny look at these ornaments.

Probably because when Tian Jiaqi wanted Xu Ziran to show her favorite things, Xu Ziran always showed enigmatic and heavy eyes. She soon stopped asking Xu Ziran and asked Qiu Yurou instead. Unknowingly, Xu Ziran was left in the air instead. On one side, Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou are as close as glue.

Xu Ziran didn't care, and just looked at the system panel or some small objects by himself, but when he looked up occasionally, he saw Tian Jiaqi and Qiu Yurou looking at him, as if they were talking about something, and laughed together as they talked.

—Ah, girl.

Xu Ziran asked Qiu Yurou softly when Tian Jiaqi went to pay: "What did you and Jiaqi say to me just now?"

Qiu Yurou shook her head mysteriously, the corners of her mouth slightly curved, and she smiled intriguingly.

Xu Ziran thought: This point of Qiu Yurou has not changed, no matter how you ask about things that you don't want to talk about, you will never say anything.

Probably because she felt embarrassed for not answering Xu Ziran's question, Qiu Yurou changed the topic by herself, put the newly bought headband on her head, and asked her if she looked good with a blushing face.

Xu Ziran was speechless, the blue hard nylon bow was inlaid with purple man-made crystals, this style really made people feel like complaining.

So Xu Ziran had no choice but to say: "It's hard to say."

But when she saw Qiu Yurou's eyes were disappointed because of her evaluation, she quickly added: "I mean, although it's not obvious when it's on the shelf, it still looks good when you wear it."

Qiu Yurou became happy again, and she didn't even doubt that this was a polite remark.

Compared with Qiu Yurou, Tian Jiaqi made complaints when Xu Ziran said such words: "Come on, what you mean is that it is actually ugly."

At this time, they had already bid farewell to Qiu Yurou and were on their way home.

As the sun sets, the cement road is dyed a beautiful and gentle orange, which brings some warmth to the way home.

Tian Jiaqi said with a smile: "Although I am still very angry that Qiu Yurou has attracted too much of your attention, she is still a nice person."

Xu Ziran smiled and said, "Didn't you all talk by yourself afterwards?"

Tian Jiaqi glanced at her arrogantly and said, "Why, you're jealous."

Xu Ziran followed the conversation: "Yeah, I'm jealous, so can you tell me what you guys said?"

Tian Jiaqi paused for a long while before saying, "Actually, I was talking about it. I think you have changed a lot."

Xu Ziran's expression was complicated. Of course, she thought that Tian Jiaqi would find out about her changes, but she didn't imagine how she would react to it.

But now, she saw Tian Jiaqi, who was a little bit tangled, frowning and said, "I always feel that you seem to have changed."

Xu Ziran paused, and said "Oh?" calmly.
