Proposing after seven years

At lunch time the next day, in the school cafeteria, Xiao Ling ordered his favorite dishes and was going to find a seat to sit down and eat.

Soon, she saw Li Jie who was eating alone by the window, she curled her lips, not wanting to talk to him.But seeing him alone, she couldn't afford to be angry with him.

Walking to Li Jie's table, Xiao Ling sat down in front of Li Jie.

Li Jie was eating with his head down, he was a little surprised at the intruder who shared the table with him, he raised his head and saw it was Xiao Ling, he frowned.

"Although you hate it, seeing how lonely you are eating alone, I have no choice but to make a sacrifice to accompany you." Xiao Ling picked up the spoon and took a bite of the meal, without looking at Li Jie, just talking to herself.

Li Jie was expressionless, just eating, but his eyes kept falling on Xiao Ling.I have to say that the way this girl is eating with a good appetite really makes him very envious. Although he is also eating, it tastes the same and has a poor appetite.

"Do you know? You are always like this alone, and you will suffer from depression. It seems that you are usually very popular, but your popularity is so bad. Yesterday I was really scared to death by you, and I really swore Don't worry about you anymore, but just now I saw you eating alone, and I couldn't control myself and ran over." Xiao Ling was talking while eating, and there was reproach in his tone, but it made people feel relieved.

Li Jie didn't want to be taught, he wanted to take the lunch box and leave, but he really wanted to hear what she thought of him, since it's boring to be alone anyway, so listening to her complaints would be good.

"You must think it's strange, but in fact, I was very timid, but I interfered with your affairs that night, because I think we are very similar..." Xiao Ling didn't want to expose Li Jie's scars again, she bit her pink lips, "We They are children whose parents cannot be with them.”

Li Jie opened his eyes and looked at her.

"My parents are very busy at work, they are all medical staff, and there is only one child in the family, so I have been alone since I was a child. But you can forget a lot of unhappy things by exchanging sincerity for friends, so I hope you will also You can slowly make some friends..."

"I'm done eating, take your time."

Li Jie interrupted Xiao Ling's words and stood up, packed the tableware and left.Of course he understands that Xiao Ling behind him has good intentions, but before he can really accept others, he still prefers to be alone.As for making friends, I'm afraid he can't do it, at least he can't do it in the short term.

Xiao Ling took the spoon and bit it, and looked at Li Jie's back that was drifting away, and felt a little sad for some reason, maybe he was too lenient, and others didn't want to appreciate it.But from the bottom of her heart, she really wanted Li Jie to get out of her grief, just like Bai Xiaoman, who insisted on breaking into her world at the beginning of the first year of junior high school, and slowly changed her introverted personality, she also wanted Li Jie to come out of her grief. Jay's personality change, make him happier.

After evening self-study, Xiao Ling waved goodbye to his classmates outside the school gate, and saw Li Jie walking out of the school gate alone from a distance, Xiao Ling followed him.

It had been two weeks since he was surrounded, and Xiao Ling still had lingering fears when she recalled it, but Li Jie always went his own way, always walking home alone through the long alley, which made her worry about him all the time.

Xiao Ling followed silently all the way, Li Jie seemed to be preoccupied and didn't notice her following.The two walked one after the other under the dim street lights, and passers-by passed by from time to time, and they were very surprised by the two walking like this.

Finally, Li Jie stopped in front of a magnificent villa, and Xiao Ling hid in a corner and looked at Li Jie from afar.

Li Jie's gaze had been focused on a window on the second floor of the villa. There was no light inside, but his face looked gentle, and the corners of his lips seemed to curl into a smile.

Xiao Ling bit her finger, not knowing what relationship Li Jie had with the owner of this villa, nor what kind of relationship he had with the owner of the room where the window was located, but it was probably him who made him feel relieved and smiled. People who like it.Xiao Ling lowered her head, feeling a little frustrated. It turned out that she had unknowingly become an envoy to protect the grass, and the grass already had her own heart.

"Xiao Ling, what are you worrying about? It's too boring to follow him all the way here alone." Xiao Ling said to himself.

Suddenly there was a sound of brakes, Xiao Ling looked up, and saw a red sports car parked at the door of the garage of the villa, and soon, a fashionable and beautiful girl got out of the car.

Li Jie seemed to have greeted that girl unexpectedly, they were standing in front of the car and talking happily, Xiao Ling saw Li Jie's smile, his friendliness, and his calmness very rarely on Li Jie's face.

Xiao Ling felt a little embarrassed when she found out about Li Jie's secret, she turned around and walked towards the bus stop step by step, no matter what, she finally knew that Li Jie had a friend who she could share with, and she didn't have to worry about him anymore.After a long time, it turned out that Li Jie was not as lonely as she thought. Xiao Ling laughed at herself, feeling a little self-indulgent.

As she was walking slowly, she suddenly saw a shadow on the ground in front of her. She thought she had encountered a stalker, and turned her head vigilantly.

At some point, Li Jie had already followed her, she was a little dazed, and looked at him suspiciously.

"Why such an expression, stalker classmate." Li Jie seemed to be in a good mood, joking with her.

"No." Xiao Ling turned around and quickened his pace.It turned out that Li Jie found out that she was following him early in the morning, and she was a little crazy.

"Don't say you're on the way now." Li Jie held on to her relentlessly.

"That's right, I was just going along the way. I didn't even know you were going this way." Xiao Ling wanted to die, and she only hoped that he wouldn't misunderstand something.

"Stalking me like this at night, if you are not a stalker, then you are interested in me?" Li Jie said in a slightly teasing tone.

"It's all about going along the way, don't hate me so much, okay?" Xiao Ling lowered her head and quickened her pace, all she wanted was to get rid of Li Jie.

"Why are you covering up after following others, just admit it." Li Jie was in a good mood, so he continued to tease Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling stopped in her tracks, turned her head and looked at Li Jie angrily, "Okay, I'll admit it. But today you really impress me. It turns out that Ajie can joke sometimes. It seems that the girl really Very powerful."

Li Jie smiled faintly, "Okay, I've let you see it, I have nothing to say."

"Is she your girlfriend? She's beautiful." Xiao Ling asked curiously.

"You don't care." Li Jie walked ahead of Xiao Ling with a mysterious expression on his face.

"Hmph, it must be someone you like. If it's not a girlfriend, it's someone you admire? Ajie, I've discovered your big secret." Xiao Ling followed behind Li Jie with a proud face.

Li Jie raised his face slightly, the corners of his mouth raised.Indeed, that was the woman he admired, Fan Yuanyuan, but his relationship with her was only a friend relationship, and there would be no further development.

"Look, look, they're all snickering." Xiao Ling followed up, pointing at his face and yelling loudly.

Seeing Xiao Ling making a fuss, Li Jie couldn't hide his smile, "Can't I have a girl I like?"

"Of course not. Today I saw that you were so happy after chatting with her. I am very happy for you." Xiao Ling said from the bottom of her heart.

Li Jie looked at Xiao Ling's pure side face, and smiled slightly, Fan Yuanyuan was just a girl he admired, not his girlfriend, because she already had a heart for her.

"By the way, can I ask you something?" Xiao Ling and Li Jie walked side by side, and suddenly said this.

Li Jie smiled lightly, "Just say what you have to say."

"Can you stop walking that alley in the future? It's so dangerous, what if those people came to trouble you again last time?" Xiao Ling looked very worried.

"Well, they don't dare to come again." Li Jie smiled lightly, he had already found someone to settle the matter afterwards, and the group of people dared not provoke him again no matter how brave they were.

"Oh, you didn't find someone to teach them a lesson behind your back, did you?" Xiao Ling looked surprised.

"Hmm, sort of." In Li Jie's life dictionary, there is never the word "teaching", only tit for tat.

"Hey, I'm worried for nothing." Xiao Ling sighed, looking a little downcast. These days, she was often worried about Li Jie who still went his own way.

"What did you say?" Li Jie didn't hear her clearly, and looked confused.

"It's nothing, the bus station is ahead, I'll go first." Xiao Ling ran forward quickly.

Li Jie smiled faintly, "Wait for me, we're going the same way."

Under the street lamp, the figures of the two people are far away, like two people who don't know much about each other, but they are slowly getting closer and have an intersection.

When school was over in the evening, Li Jie was walking alone on the school boulevard.

Xiao Ling trotted all the way to catch up, and when he reached Li Jie's side, he stopped suddenly, panting, "I finally caught up with you, why are you walking so fast?"

Li Jie turned his face and glanced at her, seeing Xiao Ling's flushed face, he was a little lost, "Do you need me?"

"Yes, there is a good thing, a good thing that is super cheap for you." Xiao Ling pulled the shoulder strap of the backpack, smiling mysteriously.

"A good thing? It's definitely not a good thing to meet you." Li Jie continued to walk his own way with a look of disdain.

"It's really a good thing. A new snack bar has opened near the school. I want to take you there to eat. I heard it's very good." Xiao Ling looked yearning.

"I don't want to eat that kind of junk food." Li Jie quickened his pace, trying to get rid of Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling didn't want her good wishes to be disillusioned. For her, gourmet food is as unbelievable as the sweet love in her fantasy. She was anxious and grabbed Li Jie's arm, "It's really delicious, just listen to me once I'll go."

"If you like, just eat enough by yourself." Li Jie tried hard to shake off Xiao Ling's hand that was holding onto his arm.

"There is an alley over there that is the only way to the snack bar, but it is said that there is a big dog that is elusive. I dare not go there alone." Xiao Ling said pitifully.

"You mean, let me be your bodyguard?" Li Jie's face was foul.

"You go with me, I'll treat you to eat, is that okay?" Xiao Ling curled her lips.Originally, all he wanted was to treat him to a good meal and make him happy, but he wanted to force her to reveal her impure purpose. If Bai Xiaoman was around, she would not call him.

Li Jie shook his head, "No, I don't want to eat at all."

"Then I'll reveal the place of the girl you like, and let everyone know what kind of girl you like." Xiao Ling revealed the last killer.

"Are you threatening me?" Li Jie said in a deep voice.

"Who taught you that you won't go with me." Xiao Ling quickened his pace and walked ahead.

"Just this one time, not the next time." Li Jie stared at Xiao Ling's back and made a statement. If it wasn't for protecting Fan Yuanyuan from being disturbed, he would not have allowed this woman to succeed.

Ten minutes later, the two finally appeared at the entrance of the alley, and at the end of the alley was the newly opened snack bar.

"Okay, I've sent you here, I'm going back." Li Jie left a word, turned around and was about to leave.

"No, what if the dog suddenly appears after eating later?" Xiao Ling held Li Jie's arm to prevent him from leaving.

"It's none of my business, I've done my best to send you here, okay? And I don't think there are any dogs here, or you can find someone to eat with, and it would be nice to come out together." Li Jie glanced at him and pestered him. Xiao Ling, who he did not let go, said angrily.

"No, I don't know those people well, what if they leave me behind?" Xiao Ling looked worried.

"Then I don't know you very well, right?" Li Jie cast a glance at Xiao Ling.

"But you have a secret in my hands." Xiao Ling smiled slightly.

Li Jie sighed, gritted his teeth and nodded, "??, go in now."

The small snack bar was full of smoke and the environment was very bad. After finally finding a seat to sit down, Li Jie was almost mad with anger, but Xiao Ling seemed to be adapting well, and ordered many kinds of snacks from the boss .

Li Jie crossed his arms and looked very repulsive, "Don't order my portion, we'll leave after you finish eating."

"You can't stop eating. It's agreed that I'll treat you." Xiao Ling handed the chopsticks to Li Jie.

"I told you, I won't eat it." Li Jie turned his face away with disdain.

Someone from the same school saw the two of them whispering, Li Jie really wanted to leave immediately.

The boss brought over the ordered snacks and asked them to use them slowly.

In front of the food, Xiao Ling started happily. Seeing Xiao Ling's good appetite, Li Jie was a little envious of her. Since his parents passed away, his appetite has become very poor.

"Don't you really want to eat it? It's really delicious." Xiao Ling looked at Li Jie curiously with his cheeks full.

Li Jie shook his head.

"You don't eat fireworks in the world, do you?" Xiao Ling teased him, "Open your mouth, I'll feed you." Xiao Ling brought the delicious food to Li Jie.

Li Jie looked at Xiao Ling's face and pushed her hand away, "Just eat it yourself, I don't want to eat it."

"It's really delicious, you... look at it." Xiao Ling insisted on feeding him.

"Student, our shop has just opened, so enjoy a bite, don't let your girlfriend down." The shop owner happened to pass by and advised Li Jie to eat.

"Actually, he is not my boyfriend." Xiao Ling hastily defended.

Li Jie doesn't mind, in fact he doesn't dislike snacks, this kind of snack bar in the alley is really very humane, but he really has a bad appetite, but seeing Xiao Ling's expectant eyes, he opened his mouth. Mouth.Surprisingly, he didn't want to vomit, but ate the snack.

"That's right, it's pretty good, I want to come again, next time you'll come with me." Xiao Ling said leisurely.

Li Jie was really surprised, this unremarkable snack was far worse than the gourmet food prepared by the chef specially invited by his family, but he could eat this snack, but he couldn't enjoy the gourmet food made by the chef.

On the way home, the sky was dark, the alley was also dark, the lights were very weak, Xiao Ling and Li Jie walked one after the other.look

Seeing Xiao Ling walking in front, Li Jie had the urge to scare her, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, Li Jie shouted: "Run, the dog is here."

"Really? I'm most afraid of dogs." Hearing Li Jie's voice, Xiao Ling ran forward desperately, her little face pale with fright.

Li Jie followed Xiao Ling, turned his face and saw her terrified expression, really laughed out loud.

"Run faster, I'm chasing you with my tongue sticking out, don't look back." Li Jie continued to threaten her.

"Are you still following? Did it run away? Does it look scary?" Xiao Ling asked a series of questions while running.

"Hurry up and ask so many questions. Of course it's scary, I think it's a mad dog." Li Jie couldn't help laughing out loud, it was so fun to play pranks on her, he couldn't stop.

"Don't eat here again, it's so scary." Xiao Ling ran like a gust of wind.

"It's good to know." Li Jie added.

Finally running out of the alley, Xiao Ling leaned against the wall, out of breath, and was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Li Jie stopped in his tracks, leaning on the wall with one arm, laughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up.

Seeing that Li Jie was smiling very strangely, Xiao Ling tilted his head to look at him, "Are you scared stupid?"

"Hahaha..." Li Jie laughed out loud, he had never laughed like this when he grew up.

"Oh, you're lying to me, aren't you?" Xiao Ling pointed at his face, suddenly realizing.

"I didn't expect you to be so easy to deceive." Li Jie was still smiling.

"I hate it, I'm almost scared to death." Xiao Ling was so angry that she wanted to punch Li Jie, but this was the first time she saw Li Jie smiling so happily, seeing Li Jie's smile so beautiful, She felt soft-hearted for a moment and couldn't do anything.She was thinking silently, if he could smile so happily all the time, it wouldn't matter how many times she was cheated by him.She suddenly realized that she was so stupid and funny, thinking of this, she also laughed.

Li Jie suddenly found that Xiao Ling's smile was beautiful, his eyes were like crescent moons, the corners of his lovely lips were curved, and his small white teeth were neatly exposed.He likes to see her smile very much. At this moment, he feels that his frozen heart is melting a little bit.

He looked at Xiao Ling's smiling face, and the corners of his mouth turned up. He had never been so eager to make a friend, but she was the exception. Xiao Ling was a friend, he was determined.

It's time to leave school again, and the corridors and stairs of the teaching building are full of students.When Xiao Ling came out of the classroom, she saw Li Jie wearing earphones, standing with his back against the wall outside her classroom door, and they looked at each other and smiled.Ever since they became good friends, they have gradually become very close. Although they are nodding acquaintances at school, outside of school, their relationship is as close as old friends who have known each other for many years.

The two walked side by side on the boulevard, Xiao Ling took out a stack of envelopes from his backpack, looked embarrassed, and handed both hands to Li Jie, "These are some girls who asked me to hand them to you, in fact, I am also very big-headed , but who taught us that our friendship was discovered by them."

Li Jie took the letter, as usual, he wanted to throw it into the trash can.

Xiao Ling hurriedly stopped him, "No, no, you can't throw it away. Out of respect, you have to read it, right?"

"I'm not interested, I don't want to watch it." Li Jie said with an indifferent attitude.

"That's right, you have someone you like, it doesn't matter whether you look at it or not. Yes, why didn't I tell you that you have a girlfriend, so that those girls won't give you love letters, I'm so stupid." Xiao Ling patted her head, looking very frustrated.

Li Jie smiled, and just wanted to explain that Fan Yuanyuan was just a girl he admired, not the object of his liking, but after thinking about it, it was more fun to tease Xiao Ling, "It's good to know that you are stupid. You received the love letter, You can read it yourself."

"How can it be? It's written for you. I can't infringe on privacy." Xiao Ling said seriously.

"I'll authorize you to read it. Why don't you give me a report after reading it?" Li Jie didn't want to waste time reading love letters.

"Then you have to keep it a secret, don't tell others that I have read these letters." Xiao Ling said solemnly.

"Ann, it's impossible for me to interact with them." Li Jie gave Xiao Ling an affirmative answer.

"Don't tell me, otherwise I will die in an ugly way." She and Li Jie became good friends, which made many people jealous. She couldn't imagine what would happen if someone knew that she read the love letter they handed over.

"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Li Jie had nothing to do with Xiao Ling.

"Of course I'm afraid, you're not my 24-hour bodyguard." Xiao Ling raised her face slightly, curling her lips lightly.

Li Jie couldn't help pinching her cheek.

"Ah, it hurts, it hurts to death." Xiao Ling tried hard to get rid of Li Jie.

"No way, who taught you to be so cute." Li Jie stretched out two hands to pinch both sides of Xiao Ling's cheeks. He was in a daze for a moment. He felt that his friendship with Xiao Ling was slowly changing qualitatively. It feels like it's more than just friends.

After finally getting Li Jie to let go, Xiao Ling gently rubbed both sides of his cheeks, "I hate it, I must take revenge."

"Yes." Li Jie compared Xiao Ling's head with his hands on his chest, "You are shorter than me in height and strength, so let's see how you can get revenge."

"But my IQ is not low." Xiao Ling pouted softly.

"Oh, I'd like to see what your brain will come up with to get revenge."

"Hmph, I originally wanted to ask you to come to my house for dinner on weekends, but now I have decided to change my mind." Xiao Ling turned her face away, looking very upset.

Seeing the red mark on Xiao Ling's fair face, Li Jie smiled slightly, "You won't be so stingy, will you?"

"Yes, I'm just stingy, especially when I'm even more stingy with a big villain like you." Xiao Ling wished he could be cruel to Li Jie as a show of revenge.

"I don't care, I must go to your house for dinner on weekends." Before he knew it, Li Jie found that he wanted to stay with Xiao Ling more.

"Come on, I'll prepare poison and wait for you." Xiao Ling said angrily.

"It's okay, if it's you, I'll eat it if poisoned." Li Jie looked very serious.

"Ajie, are you an idiot?" Xiao Ling walked beside Li Jie with a bright smile on his face.

"Hmm, it's only like this when I'm around you." Li Jie looked at Xiao Ling's innocent smiling face, and was very glad to be friends with her.

Xiao Ling smiled slyly, "I can introduce you to my mother's friend, he specializes in treating mental problems."

Li Jie had black lines all over his face, "Let's talk about it, I'm not that serious yet."

"Well, if you need to speak casually, don't be polite to me." Xiao Ling put on a knife for his friend, and he didn't hesitate to do so.

Li Jie sighed lightly, if this continues, he will be stimulated to become ill by Xiao Ling even if he is not ill.

Under the setting sun, the figures of the two formed a beautiful landscape on the campus.
