It's like I'm not reborn

Chapter 22
Shi Hai's silence was certainly not because of his crush on Zhu Lingjie.

Although it is said to be a childhood sweetheart, but the childhood sweetheart in reality... there is no feeling of youthfulness or sweetness at all.

He will never come to wake you up in the morning, make you breakfast, or go to school with you. That kind of heart-warming green plum only exists in the virtual world.

In reality, the so-called childhood sweethearts can only be regarded as 'earlier acquaintances' at best.

It's just that Shi Hai has known Zhu Lingjie for a little longer.

We've known each other for almost 15 years.

The two were born on the same day as if they had a bad relationship, and they happened to be neighbors who lived opposite each other.

Liu Zhenshan also lamented that there really is such a coincidence in the world.

Afterwards, I was in the same class from kindergarten to high school until I was divided into Chinese and science classes.

But this kind of fate only lasted until high school.

After her second year in high school, Zhu Lingjie's parents didn't want her to waste her rest time on commuting, so for the sake of her health and studies, she moved to a school district room only 3 minutes away from high school.

After that, Shi Hai never saw her again. He only remembered that after the college entrance examination, Liu Zhenshan mentioned that Zhu Lingjie was also admitted to the same university as him.

At that time, Shi Hai was just feeling emotional, and now his classmate status is almost extended to 20 years.

But university is different from high school after all, and students from different departments may not see each other until they graduate from university.

So Shi Hai never saw Zhu Lingjie during his freshman year.

As for his green plum, Shi Hai's impression is only 'horrible'.

Mainly because I was at the same table with her for six years in elementary school.

That's right, Zhu Lingjie is the woman who "helped" Shi Hai, who was still a primary school student, thoroughly understood what it meant to be "a man and a woman who are not close to each other".

Therefore, every time he saw Zhu Lingjie, Shi Hai's body would freeze involuntarily, as if he had been hit by petrified light.

It's almost an instinctive reaction.

As if being targeted by a natural enemy, Shi Hai felt his forehead was breaking out in cold sweat.

Obviously, I haven't seen her for more than a year. I didn't expect that when I face her again, my body will still be so stiff...

It can only be said that the psychological trauma in childhood is really not a joke.

Thinking about it this way, he suddenly felt that Jian Sichun who was able to overcome the trauma related to his eyes was really quite remarkable.

Then the scene became awkward.

"..."

"..."

Zhu Lingjie looked up at Shi Hai, and then looked at Jian Sichun beside him.

No one noticed that there was a wrinkle between her brows.

"...?"

Jian Sichun also tilted his head to look at Shi Hai in the same doubt, and then looked at the woman downstairs.

She is a very beautiful woman with a tear mole under her left eye, she looks about the same age as herself.

There are very long bangs on the left and right sides, the length can hang down to the chest, and the back is tied with a ponytail that reaches the waist, which looks like three ponytails from a distance.

It takes a long time to grow hair that long.

Jian Sichun also had long hair, but at most it only reached a little below the shoulders.

She felt that no matter how long it was, it was not suitable for her.

Then there's wearing...

The upper body is a one-shoulder T-shirt, and a suspender bottoming shirt is worn inside.

Below is the denim skirt, matched with 30D translucent black silk pantyhose.

A little provocative dress.

If you take a closer look, you can still see that she has light makeup on her face, and there is a sweet scent wafting from her body, most likely because she has been sprayed with perfume.

This is definitely well-groomed and mentally prepared.

To describe it specifically, it's a feeling of 'I'm going to spend the night with my boyfriend today, so I have to prepare in advance'.

However, it feels right to dress up like this.

But on the whole, it gives people an inaccessible feeling...

Jian Sichun felt conflicted.

After careful observation, she finally found a contradiction.

It's an expression!
That's right, her expression is too cold!
Even showing a shallow smile would not give people such a feeling.

Just like Tianshui, even if that woman doesn't dress so seductively, her every move, frown and smile give people a feeling of temptation.

On the contrary, although this girl was dressed more openly, but because her expression was too indifferent, she exuded the atmosphere of 'no strangers should enter'.

So, who will she be?

Was Shi Hai stunned when he saw this man's attire?

Actually not.

Shi Hai was just embarrassed.

If you met a former classmate on the road, but the relationship was not very good, would you choose to say hello awkwardly, or just ignore it?
I believe many people will choose the latter.

Therefore, Shi Hai also thought so.

Instead of grinning and saying hello, it's better to pretend not to see it.

Speaking of which, she has really changed a lot. I have only seen her in a blue and white school uniform before.

Is this attire a debut in college, or do you have a boyfriend?
Tsk tsk, sure enough, girls change quickly, unlike boys, who feel that nothing has changed in ten years.

In short, Shi Hai made up his mind and went downstairs again. Jian Sichun didn't expect that Shi Hai didn't even say hello, and followed him suspiciously.

"Huh?!"

She poked her head out and asked with her eyes, 'Don't you say hello?Isn't she someone you know? '.

Shi Hai gave her a look of 'don't say anything unnecessary, we are just passing by'.

Shi Hai's eyes were not squinted, he concentrated on walking, and passed by Zhu Lingjie like a stranger...

At this moment, Shi Hai felt his sleeve being grabbed.

Then I heard her anxious voice ringing in my ears.

"and many more……!"

Shi Hai's reaction was extremely exaggerated, he simply withdrew his hands and pulled back his sleeves, and then took a step back.

Even when Jian Sichun saw Shi Hai's reaction, he gave an expression of "what are you doing?".

But it's really not that Shi Hai overreacted, but that he knew that this was the correct way to deal with Zhu Lingjie.

After all, he knew how serious Zhu Lingjie's obsession with cleanliness was, and he would be stared into her eyes until he had nightmares at night.

However, this time, she was the one who called him first?

This seems to have never happened, right?

Shi Hai carefully recalled the few communication scenes he had known Zhu Lingjie for more than ten years.

It's just that when I go out to school occasionally, I just happen to meet her and go out with her.

Shi Hai raised his right hand and smiled awkwardly as a daily greeting: "Yo... good morning."

After Zhu Lingjie was silent for five or six seconds as if she hadn't heard, she nodded lightly with no expression on her face, and replied with a weak voice: "......... Mmm."

Shi Hai felt that he was about to suffocate while waiting.

So he would go to school early on purpose, just to avoid Zhu Lingjie, and the good morning greeting that was so embarrassing that he scratched his toes.

But still at least once a week...

I feel that it can only be explained by evil fate.

"Hey! What are you thinking! You're back to your senses!"

After being elbowed by Jian Sichun, Shi Hai came back to his senses.

Now that the other party has spoken, I can't ignore it anymore.

So Shi Hai was still the same as before, smiling awkwardly and raising his hand to say hello.

"Uh... Long time no see..."

But this time Zhu Lingjie didn't stay silent for a long time, and immediately nodded in reply.

"Well... long time... no see."

Phew, Shi Hai breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that she has also improved, at least she seems to have less communication barriers.

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

"...I, moved back."

Although it is true that no new people live in the opposite door, it seems that the house has not been sold.

Shi Hai knew that Zhu Lingjie and her family were still very rich.

After all, the family just bought a school district house with full money just to keep Zhu Lingjie from being troubled.

Probably this is the rich man.

But why move back?
Is this going to be a neighbor again?

Could it be that the evil fate is still going on?
