poplar eyes

Chapter 51 Pearl Necklace
At eight o'clock in the morning, when Tang Xiaoya was woken up by Chen Haoran's phone call, Li Jing and Lin Anqi had already gone home, leaving a bunch of snacks and fruits on the table for her.

"Xiaoya, you finally answered the phone, go downstairs quickly, it will start in half an hour."

"Oh, okay okay."

"You don't need to bring anything, just come down."

"Got it, go down in five minutes."

Chen Haoran put his mobile phone into his trouser pocket, looked up at the fourth floor of the girls' dormitory building, and smiled from ear to ear.

The reason why he was so happy was because Tang Xiaoya finally agreed to watch a movie with him.

Although the school is not far from the cinema, only two stops away, Chen Haoran has been looking forward to this day for two semesters.

"Chen Haoran, where is your bicycle?"

"It broke down yesterday, and I haven't had time to fix it yet. It's okay. I'll take you by bike."

"Oh, okay."

The 24-inch women's bicycle is not only pointless for Chen Haoran, who is 182 in height, but also a bit awkward.

But his face was filled with happiness, as if he had returned to the era of his parents.

There was a section of road near the complex building that was paved with cobblestones, and the bicycle bumped very badly. Tang Xiaoya's heart was beating wildly, her hands were clenched into fists, and she couldn't put them down.

"Xiaoya, why don't you hug me? Be careful and throw you out in a while, hahaha."

"How about walking?"

"It's okay, I'll ride slower."

The summer wind was very hot, and the face was hot when it was blown. Tang Xiaoya's long hair was blown up, flying around, and the faint fragrance wafted wantonly.

15 minutes later, the cinema arrived.

Tickets were picked up at the machine, the two-person set menu was picked up at the service desk, and movie souvenirs were selected. The process was done quickly within 5 minutes. They finally arrived at the screening hall before the movie started.

"Xiaoya, are you afraid?"

"With so much blood, will he die?"

"No, the hostess will definitely find him."

"how do you know?"

"Isn't that how it's played in movies? The hero has his own halo, and he's close to death."

"Oh, if only."

Whenever the performance came to a dangerous moment, Tang Xiaoya would cover her eyes with her hands, not daring to look.Chen Haoran thinks she is funny, she likes to watch adventure movies so much, but she is so timid and pathetic, it is really contradictory.

Department of Computer Science, male dormitory.

Yuan Shaohua looked at the ceramic lady in the trolley case, full of melancholy.

This is the one that Tang Xiaoya didn't win when she played hoops on Gucheng Street during the National Day last year.

Holding a scroll and wearing a thin shirt in Tsing Yi.

Although the workmanship was a bit rough, Yuan Shaohua always regarded it as a treasure, and kept it carefully in a cloth bag, for fear of breaking it.

"Yuan Shaohua, do you know about Chen Haoran and Tang Xiaoya exchanging guitars?"

"I don't know, who did you hear from?"

"Li Jing, she said that Chen Haoran had borrowed Tang Xiaoya's guitar before Chinese New Year, and returned a new one after school started."

Yuan Shaohua had watched the guitar playing video posted by Chen Haoran, but he didn't know that the guitar belonged to Tang Xiaoya.

He thought that Chen Haoran deliberately bought a pair of the same style just to please Tang Xiaoya.Now when I heard Sun Zhibin say this suddenly, the defense line in my heart completely collapsed.

He slammed the box shut and rushed out the door.

Although Sun Zhibin told Yuan Shaohua on purpose, in order to stimulate his fighting spirit to pursue love, he didn't expect Yuan Shaohua's reaction to be so strong, and he ran down the fifth floor in one breath.

"Yuan Shaohua, why are you going?"

"Do you also think that I am not as brave as Chen Haoran, and I always look forward and backward in everything I do, which is why I fail?"

"Maybe this is character determines destiny."

"I'm fine, you go back, I want to find Xiaoya."

"great, good luck."

School of Foreign Languages, small courtyard of dormitory building.

As soon as Tang Xiaoya stepped out of the carport, she received a call from Yuan Shaohua. It happened that Chen Haoran was close at hand, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Irritability and anger occupied Chen Haoran's heart in an instant.

He didn't know what the purpose of Yuan Shaohua's trip was, but out of respect for Tang Xiaoya and to show his broad mind, he finally chose to resolve it peacefully.

"Xiaoya, why don't you go?"

"I still have to go back and organize my things, or I won't be able to catch the five o'clock high-speed train."

"Go and have a look. Maybe Yuan Shaohua has something important to do. Let me know when you're done. I'll see you off. It won't be too late."

"But I don't want to go."

"Go, don't make him wait in a hurry."

After Chen Haoran finished speaking, he ran into the boys' dormitory building without looking back, making Tang Xiaoya baffled, not understanding what he meant.

On the bamboo forest path, there is a constant sound of cicadas.

Yuan Shaohua sat on the bench, quietly looking at the lotus in the pond, recalling the scene when he and Tang Xiaoya first met.

Ten minutes later, Tang Xiaoya arrived as scheduled.

"Xiaoya, sit with me for a while. Look, the lotus is blooming before you know it, how beautiful it is."

"I pass here several times a day."

"Well, 6 times a day, when the school starts in September, it will become 4 times a day."

"That's right, I finally don't have to go to study at night. You don't even know how dark this road used to be. Several street lights were broken, thanks to the repairs later."

"How could I not know? I repaired it with the electrician. On the first Sunday you came to the computer, a total of 3 lights were broken. Maybe there are not many people walking this way, so I have been Nobody cares."

Tang Xiaoya never expected that these lamps were repaired for her own sake, and she was so moved that she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Xiaoya, I have something I want to give you, don't refuse, okay?"

A dark blue square box was opened in front of Tang Xiaoya, inside was a single pearl necklace, the chain was exquisite, the beads were big and round.

This was Yuan Shaohua's gift for Tang Xiaoya's professional transfer, but due to many worries, he didn't have the courage to give it out.

"Sorry, I can't have it."

"Accept it. I bought this with a scholarship. I hope it can bring you good luck. I wish you a national scholarship as soon as possible."

"Sorry, I already have one."

Tang Xiaoya smiled sweetly, and pulled out the silver chain from the neckline, a bright heart shining in the sun.

In fact, Yuan Shaohua had already seen this chain when Chen Haoran ran 20 laps.It's just that he didn't expect that Tang Xiaoya would reject him in such a tactful way.

"It's very beautiful, was it given by Chen Haoran?"

"Yes."

"Xiaoya, don't you like this chain very much?"

"Well, I like it very much."

Tang Xiaoya's words stabbed Yuan Shaohua's heart deeply like a sharp knife.

His eyes were red and he was sad, but he was even more afraid that Tang Xiaoya would stop talking to him because of this, so he asked cautiously, "Xiaoya, can we still be friends?"

"Of course, didn't you say that we are best friends, but can the content of this chat be kept secret? I don't want Chen Haoran to know, can I?"

"Okay, I promise you."

Tang Xiaoya couldn't bear to see Yuan Shaohua sad, so she got up and left the lotus pond.

On the way back, I met Chen Haoran who came to look for her. He was sweating profusely, and he was completely furious, looking at death as if at home.

Seeing this, Tang Xiaoya couldn't help laughing, and Chen Haoran who laughed was flustered.

"Xiaoya, why is Yuan Shaohua looking for you?"

"Don't tell you."

"why?"

"I didn't even want to go, but you urged me to go."

"Why is it still my fault?"

"Yes, it's your fault."

Along the way, Chen Haoran kept asking Tang Xiaoya until he reached the high-speed railway station, but Tang Xiaoya kept silent and didn't say anything.

Summer vacation life, just started in such a muddle-headed way.
