give me straight man

Meng Ran was stunned.

pick him up?

Lu Ouxun walked up to Meng Ran, reached out his hand naturally, took the backpack that Meng Ran was carrying on one shoulder, and explained at the same time: "I asked Qian Rui." Qian Rui is a lump.

"He said that you are working here part-time. Today is Friday and you won't be back until 12 o'clock."

Meng Ran was surprised: "Then you came to pick me up?"

Lu Ouxun smiled: "Is it okay to pick you up? With our relationship."

Meng Ran: "..."

From Lu Ouxun's point of view, it's really nothing.

The two walked side by side to the school together.

For the first half minute of walking, Meng Ran was speechless, Lu Ouxun was silent, and the alley was surprisingly quiet.

Half a minute later, Meng Ran opened his mouth first: "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"

Lu Ouxun: "Anything is fine."

Meng Ran: "Why don't you just eat at school. You haven't eaten in all the canteens in this campus, have you? It's delicious, especially the No. [-] canteen."

Lu Ouxun said briskly, "Yes."

It was quiet again, with some obvious embarrassment mixed in the silence.

Before today's basketball game, Meng Ran didn't think there was anything wrong, he just wanted to go back to school early and end his alone time with Lu Ouxun as soon as possible.

However, after today's basketball game, I realized that Lu Ouxun didn't have to face his estrangement, and he shouldn't treat a friend who had such a good relationship with him because of selfishness. The embarrassment seemed too redundant.

Meng Ran tried hard to find a topic: "You still play basketball so well."

Lu Ouxun said unusually little: "Yes."

Meng Ran: "When you were at the Shunan Road campus, did you often play ball?"

Lu Ouxun: "It's okay."

Meng Ran looked at Lu Ouxun: "What's wrong with you, why don't you talk?"

Lu Ouxun stopped in his tracks, followed by Meng Ran.

A dim street lamp in a narrow alley casts the shadows of the two on the ground.

Meng Ran slightly turned around, looked at Lu Ouxun, saw Lu Ouxun looking at him with scrutiny, wondering: "What's wrong?"

Lu Ouxun looked back at him with a serious expression, and said slowly, "I want to ask you something."

Meng Ran: "Huh?"

Lu Ouxun: "After you hear it, you may feel embarrassed, or you may not feel comfortable answering."

Paused, "But I hope you can answer me seriously for the sake of our good relationship before."

Meng Ran's heart skipped a beat, and he had a vague guess.

Lu Ouxun: "Why are you avoiding me?"

Meng Ran: "..."

After hearing this, Meng Ran was really embarrassed, so embarrassed that his toes grabbed the soles of his shoes.

How should he answer this?

Could it be that because I liked you before, but I know that liking you will have no results, so I just want to stay away from you now?

Meng Ran reacted quickly, almost the second after Lu Ouxun finished speaking, he replied, "Huh? Avoiding you? No."

Change Lu Ou Xun's meal, no?

Meng Ran stabilized his face: "Really not."

He said calmly again: "We really haven't had much contact in the past three years in college."

Meng Ran followed and said, "But is this normal? After all, you are on Shunan Road, and I am in the old campus, so I don't usually see each other."

"It's not like living in a dormitory in high school before, and we can still see each other every day."

"I can't see you, and I'm not in the same circle, and I don't have much to talk about. Even if I call, I can't say a few words, right?"

Meng Ran continued to talk: "Why do you think I'm avoiding you? Why am I hiding from you? Nothing happened."

Paused, pretending to be stunned: "I said why did you apologize to me when you were on the basketball court this afternoon? It turned out that you thought you did something wrong, so I avoided you?"

Meng Ran: "No, really not, you think too much."

After Meng Ran's call, Lu Ouxun was in a cloud, but gradually it made sense. On the one hand, because Meng Ran's words really made sense, he really couldn't think of a reasonable reason for Meng Ran to avoid him. On the other hand, Straight men are such straight-minded, single-threaded creatures.

Lu Ouxun heaved a sigh of relief: So he thought too much.

Seeing that Lu Ouxun had been explained to him, Meng Ran was also relieved from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time hammered himself in the bottom of his heart:

When I couldn't see him before, I was cold when I was cold, but now I can't see him when I look up, how can I continue to treat Lu Ou Xun like this?

What's wrong with Lu Ou Xun?

Lu Ouxun is not an enemy!

After thinking it over, Meng Ran adjusted his mentality while trying to use the cheerful tone of friends: "Okay, let's talk."

Lu Ouxun also recovered his expression, and said calmly: "I almost thought I was going to lose you as a friend."

The two continued to chat while walking, Meng Ran: "How could that be?"

Lu Ouxun: "Well, it's fine if it doesn't."

Back in the dormitory that night, before going to sleep, Meng Ran lay on the bed with his eyes closed and told himself:

Don't treat Lu Ou like that, Lu Ou is right.

What's more, if you don't look up and you don't look down, where can you hide?

Simply be normal, what to do.

Yes, normal mind, normal mind.

The next day, Saturday, the normal-hearted Meng Ran slept until the normal time to wake up.

When they got up together, they found that the diagonally opposite bunks were empty, and Lu Ouxun was not there.

Meng Ran got out of bed to wash up.

After washing up and coming out of the bathroom, Lu Ouxun just opened the door and came in.

The two met at the door of the dormitory. Seeing that Lu Ouxun was sweating, Meng Ran blinked in wonder.

Lu Ou breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "I ran for a while."

Ton Ton: "Oh."

Tuotuo: "Awesome."

Meng Ran smiled: "You are too self-disciplined."

Lu Ouxun: "I'm used to it."

It's past ten o'clock, Tuotuo is playing games with his legs up, Tonton is standing in front of his messy desk looking for things, Meng Ran is standing on the balcony swiping his phone.

Through the thin door panel of the bathroom, the sound of water in the bathroom can be heard clearly.

Not long after, the bathroom door opened, and Lu Ouxun came out after taking a shower.

Meng Ran was swiping his phone, and just came back from the balcony, raised his eyes, and was caught off guard, Lu Ouxun's naked and strong upper body came into view.

Meng Ran's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly looked away.

He walked back to the table and thought silently in his heart: Amitabha, Amitabha, do not despise evil, do not despise evil.

At noon, Tuotuo and Tonton had their own business, Meng Ran and Lu Ouxun went to eat alone.

Meng Ran originally wanted to take Lu Ouxun to the No. [-] Canteen, which has the best food, but thought that no matter how delicious the No. [-] Canteen was, it was not as good as the bone soup shop at the gate of A, so Meng Ran took Lu Ouxun to the No. [-] Bone Soup Shop.

The bone broth shop was full, Meng Ran and Lu Ouxun stood at the door waiting, chatting casually while waiting——

Lu Ouxun: "How long have you been working part-time?"

Meng Ran: "More than two years."

Lu Ouxun: "Why do you work part-time in Qing Bar?"

Meng Ran: "The boss gives you a lot."

Lu Ouxun: "Have you worked hard?"

Meng Ran: "Fortunately, it's just ordering customers, getting drinks, handing out food, and sometimes chatting with familiar customers."

While chatting, the phone in his hand rang.

Meng Ran lowered his head and slid open the screen.

Zhou Linfeng: "Okay, I was wrong, I will treat you to dinner at noon?"

Meng Ran pressed the phone off, pretending he didn't see it.

Almost finished eating, Meng Rangai's phone on the table buzzed.

Meng Ran picked up Zhou Linfeng's phone.

He didn't answer, just hung up.

Just after hanging up, the phone vibrated again, and Meng Ran pressed it off again.

Lu Ouxun raised his eyes and took a look.

For the third time, without waiting for Meng Ran to hang up, Lu Ouxun said, "Harassing calls?"

"almost."

But Meng Ran took it this time.

Then he got up, motioned to Lu Ouxun, and walked out of the bone soup shop.

As soon as the call was made, Zhou Linfeng came up and said, "Are you not short-tempered? Ignore the message and just hang up the call?"

Meng Ran stood outside the bone soup shop, walked a few steps away, and said calmly, "Zhou Linfeng, you know I've been chasing you, right?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

Meng Ran: "Sorry, stop here, I won't chase anymore."

Zhou Linfeng: "..."

In the bone soup shop, Lu Ouxun received a message from his former roommate: "Playing golf in the afternoon?"

Lu Ouxun: "No."

Ex-roommate: "Dinner together tonight?"

Lu Ouxun: "I have an appointment."

Ex-roommate: "Dating a girl?"

Lu Ouxun: "You have time to wash your brain."

Meng Ran walked back to the store and sat down again.

Lu Ouxun put down the phone: "What are the arrangements for the afternoon?"

Meng Ran: "Library, I have an exam next week."

Lu Ouxun: "Just right, together."

The two went back to school together.

When sitting down to read a book, Meng Ran unconsciously glanced at Lu Ouxun beside him from the corner of his eye.

He thought: That's it, normal heart.Anyway, he has no idea about Lu Ou Xun now, not at all.

Thinking about it this way, Meng Ran could think more openly, and felt more relaxed in his heart: Yes, I don’t have any ideas anymore, what is there to face and need to hide from?It's not necessary at all.

Yes, that's it, normal mind, normal mind.

That night, during "Golden Night Sweet Dreams", Kevin leaned against the bar counter and sent Meng Ran a WeChat business card with his mobile phone.

Kevin introduced while posting: "I'm also a college student, younger than you, a sophomore this year."

Meng Ran sighed: "I just broke up here, so don't be so anxious."

Kevin's tone was sharp: "It's because you broke up that you need to find a new one. Are you still going to be a widow for that sports student?"

Meng Ran raised his hands, with a look of "you spared me".

Is widowhood okay?

Kevin: "That's it! If the old one doesn't go, the new one won't come!"

Kevin: "Besides, let me introduce you, you also started from the first contact, and you didn't just talk about friends when you came up."

"Let's chat, we've had a good chat, let's start with ordinary friends."

Meng Ran thought about it and nodded: yes.

Meng Ran opened his business card and added the one introduced by Kevin.

The other party quickly passed the verification and took the initiative to say hello: "Hi."

Meng Ran: "Hi."

[My name is Tang Ning. 】

Meng Ran: "Meng Ran."

Tang Ning: [Shake hands.jpg];

Meng Ran: [Shake hands.jpg];

On the other side, Lu Ouxun didn't know the existence of Tang Ning in Meng Ran's phone, and he was still stuck in Zhou Linfeng's section.

Seeing Zhou Linfeng's circle of friends posted in the past two days, Meng Ran didn't like it anymore, but Meng Ran started to like his own circle of friends, and Lu Ouxun felt physically and mentally smooth just sitting there.

When friends from University A made another appointment for a ball, Lu Ouxun emphasized that he could call anyone, and he would play anyone he called, except Zhou Linfeng from the Department of Physical Education of University A.

Friend: "Huh?"

Lu Ouxun said without any concealment: "Just treat me as a narrow-minded person."

Friend: "Zhou Linfeng offended you?"

Lu Ouxun: "Yes."

Friend: "What did you offend?"

Lu Ouxun: "Snatch someone from me."

Friend: "Who are you robbing?"

Lu Ouxun: "Friend."

Friend: "Girl friends?"

Lu Ouxun: "Boy."

Friend: "..."
