Seeing Pei Zixi ignoring him, Lu Jilin didn't react at all, and followed as usual. Later, when he found out that Pei Zixi was going to practice the piano, he rarely said, "Hey, I've learned the piano too." He really started practicing beside him.

Pei Zixi didn't understand what Lu Jilin was thinking, but as long as it didn't hinder him, he could do anything, and he didn't call Lu Jilin when he went to practice or left.Lu Jilin figured out Pei Zixi's time by himself, and followed behind at the right time.

When he came out of the piano shop that day, Lu Jilin didn't wait outside, and Pei Zixi didn't call him, and walked forward by himself.It was dark early in winter, it was only around six o'clock, the road was already dark, Pei Zixi was stopped by four people, it turned out to be blackmail.

Pei Zixi looked at his hands. Since he practiced the piano, he already understood that his hands are very important and cannot be injured casually. Moreover, his practice of judo is only a matter of primary school. He is not confident that he can beat four people. There is only one person on the other side. Still have a little confidence.

"I'm sorry, I don't have much money," Pei Zixi said calmly, not at all like someone who was blackmailed.He simply dug out the things in his pocket, only a few tens of dollars and a mobile phone.

"Give me the phone." A hooligan said.

Pei Zixi groaned secretly, because the mobile phone was given by Chu Jingxia, and he still remembered that Chu Jingxia said before that he should not give his mobile phone to others casually.

"The phone is a bit old, and you can't sell it for much," Pei Zixi said unwillingly.

"Although it's a bit old, the brand phone can still sell for a few dollars," said another hooligan who came to grab the phone, but Pei Zixi flicked his hand and refused.

Four people approached Pei Zixi, and a voice sounded from behind, "What are you doing, I called the police." Lu Jilin was dialing the number with his mobile phone.

The other four saw only one person, and two people surrounded Lu Jilin.

Lu Jilin quickly called the police, and the four people saw that something was wrong, so they ran away, calling Pei Zixi to remember.

It was the first time that Pei Zixi took the initiative to talk to Lu Jilin, "Thank you."

Lu Jilin cracked his lips into a smile, "Isn't it right to protect seniors?"

"Please don't tell anyone about this," Pei Zixi told Lu Jilin.

At this time, the police cars arrived, and one of the policemen was the one from when Pei Zixi and Chu Jingxia were robbed last time. He still had an impression of Pei Zixi, "Student, I know this road is not safe, so please avoid it."

"No way, this is the only way," Pei Zixi replied.

The two policemen learned what had happened, because the blackmailer had already left, so they gave a few words of advice and left.

"Senior, why can't you tell others," Lu Jilin walked beside Pei Zixi.

"Because our class teacher may not let me practice the piano."

"Senior, you don't want to learn music, why are you so obsessed with the piano?" Lu Jilin also asked a rare question, probably seeing that it was difficult for Pei Zixi to take the initiative to talk to him.

"It's nothing, get used to it, get used to it."

Lu Jilin didn't ask any more questions, this day's dinner, Pei Zixi invited Lu Jilin, after all, he helped him.

When paying the bill, Lu Jilin went to pay first, and Pei Zixi was upset, "If you insist on paying, don't follow me in the future. It's rare that I take the initiative to invite someone."

Lu Jilin gave up.

Taking this incident as an opportunity, Pei Zixi and Lu Jilin got closer, but he was still reluctant to talk. Lu Jilin was not a talkative person, but got along well.

Some girls immediately realized that Pei Zixi and Lu Jilin were no longer like strangers, and some people started to speculate, and many people started to discuss.

Pei Zixi is usually immersed in his own world and doesn't care about rumors at all. He didn't know until the girl in class told him, but he didn't pay much attention to it, just read his book.

Teacher Zhuang couldn't hold back anymore, because the rumors spread too much, and they flowed into his ears again, but this time he didn't question directly, but asked carefully, and found that Pei Zixi really didn't know what to ask, so he didn't even know what to do. Don't worry, as long as Pei Zixi studies normally and goes to and from class normally, he can't control so much.What's more about rumors, the more you take them seriously, the more rumors will spread. If you don't care about them, the rumors will gradually fade away by themselves.

This day Lu Jilin asked Pei Zixi, "There are so many rumors between us, do you not care at all?"

Pei Zixi gave Lu Jilin a strange look, "Why should I care?"

"Why don't you care? Because some boys wrote you love letters?"

Pei Zixi shook her head, pondered for a while, and decided to tell the truth, "Because a friend in junior high was always joking with me like this, so I don't care that much."

Lu Jilin's expression changed, "Where's your friend, has he gone to college?"

"Go to college abroad."

"What if I said that I really like you," Lu Jilin looked closely at Pei Zixi.

Pei Zixi blinked, "Didn't you say you don't like me?"

"If you don't like it, who wants to follow someone all day long." Lu Jilin looked at Pei Zixi without blinking, for fear of missing any expression on his face.

"You really like me," Pei Zixi didn't show any surprise on his face, "So that's the case. I'm sorry, I said that men and women don't accept love before college."

A painful expression flashed across Lu Jilin's face, "Senior, how can we narrow the gap between us."

"What gap?"

"Age." Lu Jilin's answer surprised Pei Zixi, who thought it was a difference in feelings. "I'm in the first year of high school now. If it wasn't because of you repeating my studies, the seniors probably wouldn't have had the chance to know me. Next year you will go to college, and when you go to college, the seniors will soon forget about me."

"I have a good memory." Pei Zixi replied, "I won't forget important things and people easily. We are friends now."

"I don't want to be friends with my senior," Lu Jilin replied affirmatively, "Thank you for your company these days, senior." Lu Jilin took a deep look at Pei Zixi and left.

Later, Lu Jilin never took the initiative to look for Pei Zixi again. Occasionally, Pei Zixi met Lu Jilin on the road and took the initiative to say hello to him.Lu Jilin was walking with two girls, when he saw Pei Zixi he just responded coldly and left with the girls.

Pei Zixi stood there in a daze for a while, not understanding Lu Jilin's sudden indifference, he thought about it carefully, probably because he couldn't respond to his feelings, so Lu Jilin chose to distance himself.

A burst of sadness hit Pei Zixi's heart. If he can't be a lover, he can't even be a friend?The repeat book made him feel complicated, so he was not in the mood to make good friends. He just got closer to Lu Jilin, thinking that he had a friend, but he lost it easily.

Pei Zixi was melancholy for two days, but he didn't miss what he should do. Since the other party had already made a decision, he couldn't force the other party.

Gathering fate is as light as water, gathering and parting is as light as wind, the last thing you can't force is fate.

Later, when he rubbed shoulders with Lu Jilin again, Pei Zixi would still greet him lightly, in a lukewarm manner, as if the other party was an ordinary acquaintance who couldn't be more ordinary.He didn't notice Lu Jilin's painful expression when he looked back at his back.

Chu Jingxia received another call from Zhao Yijie, "Report to Brother Chu, it is said that Brother Pei rejected Lu Jilin's confession."

"Oh, you know very well," Chu Jingxia said, although she was as indifferent as ever, she couldn't hide the joy in her words.

"Of course, as your little brother, I must perform my duties well." Zhao Yijie chuckled.

"Understood, next time we meet, I will treat you to dinner."

Seeing Chu Jingxia's rare gesture of kindness to him, Zhao Yijie said happily, "Brother Chu, don't worry, I will continue to pay attention to Brother Pei's follow-up development."

"You can pay attention, but don't disturb him," Chu Jingxia warned again.

"I know. Brother Chu, don't worry." Zhao Yijie didn't care if the other party could hear him, so he slapped his chest loudly.

"I haven't seen each other for more than half a year," Chu Jingxia said to herself, pulled out Pei Zixi's photo from her mobile phone, and looked at it ecstatically. It showed Pei Zixi's appearance in recent days.
