MTL - Gifting You With A City that Will Never Be Isolated-Chapter 18

Near the end of the period, Bai Ziren needs to prepare for the exam carefully, but also to continue to translate the work of the instructor. In addition, the weather is getting colder and colder. She is a little bit struggling. She has to eat more things to supplement her energy. This is a little fat, and it is morning. When I was in the mirror, I found that even the chin was rounded up. I intended to make it myself, but it was very difficult to do it. I used my brain too much after I was hungry. At night I sneaked into the night street to buy fried rice. It happened to be bought last week. thing.

"Wait for a while." Zhou must, when he yelled at Bai Ziren, quickly paid the seller to the seller, and brought up the packaged Hong Kong-style claypot rice and went back with her. By the way, how was her review?

Bai Ziren simply said: "It's almost."

"I know that the exam is a piece of cake for you."

"No, I am reviewing it very late every day."

"What is modest, you are all fat, and your heart is wide enough to be fat. At first glance, there is no pressure."

Bai Ziren can't speak.

Zhou must say: "I saw you wearing a skirt at school that day."

"Well, yes." She wore a skirt and caused a lot of people to look at it. The people I saw almost asked you to wear a skirt. It made her a little embarrassed and didn't wear it the next day.

"Quite good looking."

"Thank you."

Zhou must secretly shake his head, and he has never seen a girl who is more incomprehensible than her. His praise is not even a happy smile or a subtle gaze. Even saying thank you sounds without enthusiasm.

"I like to see you change." Seeing her no longer speak, he added.

This time, Bai Ziren turned his face to look at him, his eyes a little surprised.

"I have never seen you laughing. When I was in elementary school, I felt that you were mysterious more than once. I also suspected that you had an alien friend in the room."

"Without alien friends, I am just getting used to one person."

"You don't have a playmate in childhood, don't you feel lonely?"

“No, there is a lot of fun for one person.”

Zhou must have intentionally or unintentionally received a sentence: "As you are like this, how do you fall in love and marry in the future?"

After a while, he heard her answer: "If I have a favorite object, I will go to school."

Zhou must be almost awkward, he braked in time, just stopped by the streetlight at the gate, the night light like a tulle, shrouded in the face of the person in front of him, he incredibly caught the fleeting gentleness in her eyes, But it quickly dissipated and the expression returned to normal.

"Goodbye." Bai Ziren went to the dormitory on the right.

Zhou must stay in place, recalling her eyes, and finally determined that there was such a moment, he found a good impression of her when she was a child.

For him, she always keeps distance and is inaccessible. In fact, he always wanted to know what kind of person he was in her mind from that time to the present, good or bad, smart or stupid. Appreciate or disapprove? However, she did not evaluate him from beginning to end, and he could not know that at this moment, he had a ridiculous idea. Should she never put him in the eye?

Zhou must have thought about this for a long time, and even the lunch box in his hand was cold.

Three days before the test week, it happened to be Christmas. The students in the translation team finally completed the task. After the end of the day, they thought about going to the school to have a celebration, but when they thought that the test should come on the face, everyone had heavy pressure. There is no interest, and I will go back and continue to write.

Bai Ziren took time to go to Siwei Road and went to the lighthouse cafe. He pushed the door and found that everyone was full.

Xiao Ji, wearing a Christmas hat, was too busy to see Bai Ziren, and smiled in surprise: "Merry Christmas."

Bai Ziren stepped forward and said to her, "Merry Christmas."

"It’s a pity. The teacher is too busy these days and can’t come over.”

Bai Ziren had a hunch that he would not come over this time, but he couldn't help but lose it when he heard the truth.

"Students want a final exam, his friend is seriously ill, ready to undergo surgery, he has no time to look after this." Xiao Ji said while observing the expression of Bai Ziren, as expected, her eyes dimmed.

Bai Ziren nodded. "Well, I know."

"But..." Xiao Ji reached out to the corner of the bar, took out a small gift, and handed it to her quickly. "This is what he left for you!"

"Ah?" Bai Ziren asked unexpectedly.

"He came to tell the Christmas event a few days ago, brought a box of gifts, ready to be sent to the guests, you are the one he had, if you come, I will give it to you."

Bai Ziren took a small gift, a candy packed in Christmas stockings, very delicate.

"Other gifts are exactly the same content, but you only have a few more chocolates." Xiao Ji smiled and reminded her, "Must keep it secret."

Bai Ziren took a small gift back, unpacked the ribbon on the package, poured out the candy inside, and found a variety of styles, including five round chocolates, the one she had sent him before, she peeled off and ate. One, very sweet and very crisp, reluctant to eat it all at once, she put the rest of the candy back into the bag and hung it by the bed.

I am preparing to send a Christmas blessing to him. He has already sent it one step at a time: "Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas, thank you for your small gift, please take care of your body and eat more." She replied earnestly.

A minute later, she received a call from him.

"It should be that I told you to take care of your body, eat more, don't stay up late to read."

In the winter, his hoarse voice was like a cluster of freshly rising flames that illuminate her whole person.

"where are you?"

"hospital."

"Is your friend's situation okay?"

"Currently doing chemotherapy, surgery after two weeks."

"It will definitely be smooth, you don't have to worry too much."

The phone paused for two seconds, and then his voice was milder: "Well."

Bai Ziren listened to his breath, and there was a desire to see him.

"Bai Ziren, do you have time after the exam?"

"Well? Yes."

"The last time you said that you didn't have time to talk to me, we can talk about it when the exam is over."

"... um, okay."

"Take care of yourself, don't sleep too late." He said good night with a very nice voice.

This good night is like sticking to her ear and licking her, with a gentle hypnotic effect, let her sleep a good night.

On the last day of the test week, it happened to be the day when Cheng Jingbo’s friend had an operation. At the end of the day, it was noon. Bai Ziren was rushed to the hospital by car. He went to the oncology department and quickly found out that there was indeed a major operation today. It was Wu said that he was sent to the operating room early in the morning and it is not over yet.

Bai Ziren asked where his family was. The nurse said that several people were here, and should go out to eat now.

Bai Ziren had to wait in the empty corridor, watching from left to right.

After half an hour, she heard the voice coming from the stairs. When she walked over, she went back. In addition to Dr. Cheng Jingbo and Dr. Cheng Jingwei, the last time she saw Mrs. Wu, there was an old man and a young girl.

Bai Ziren didn't think about facing so many people. He wanted to avoid it for the first time, but Cheng Jingbo had already seen her and went straight to her. Curiously asked: "Are you not taking the exam? How come to the hospital?"

"The exam is over, I..." Bai Ziren pulled the strap of the schoolbag and was cramped. "I passed the hospital and took a look."

Cheng Jingbo remembered the operation days before mentioning Wu in the text message. He knew that Bai Ziren was remembering it. Maybe it was the result of a special trip to accompany him and other friends. I thought it would be moving.

"It turned out to be passing by, I happened to be here." He looked at her gently. "Have you ever eaten lunch?"

Bai Ziren shook his head: "I am not hungry."

"When you are not hungry, you are sitting, I will bring you a meal."

Cheng Jingbo turned and went downstairs to the dining hall. Before leaving, please take a look at Bai Jingren.

Cheng Jingwei took a box of hot milk from the nurse's desk, let Bai Ziren drink a little warm stomach, as carefully as she, has seen that the younger brother is too concerned about this introverted girl.

Bai Ziren thanked him for taking a sip of overheated milk. He felt that the whole person was much more comfortable. He looked up and looked at the row of seats opposite. Wu’s parents sat side by side, next to Mrs. Wu, who was tired and frowning. A girl in a long coat looked down at the phone silently.

"The weather is so cold, are you coming from school?" Cheng Jingyi tried to chat with Bai Ziren.

Bai Ziren nodded.

Cheng Jingwei is a wise man who is good at sensationalism and will not ask her what she is embarrassed. She just said sincerely: "Thank you for coming to accompany the results of the slumber, really, he has not said anything today, you came to him. It's much easier."

"Is it?" Bai Ziren hesitated.

"Yes." Cheng Jingjie gave her a definite answer, and pointed to the milk in her hand. "Hurry and drink."

When I came back from time to time, I even smashed a whole family bucket. He explained that there was no hot dish in the hospital canteen. I had to buy it at the opposite fast food restaurant and let Bai Ziren make it.

Bai Ziren took over a family bucket and looked at Cheng Jingbo, silently asking: "Will this be eaten?"

Cheng Jingbo understands what she means: "You eat first, and you can't finish it."

At this time, the girl sitting across from the smell smelled, could not help but say: "This taste is really tempting, Cheng Jingbo, you will not buy a copy?"

Cheng Jingbo sat down and said very politely: "We have all had lunch, but she still hasn't, please forgive me."

Cheng Jingyi couldn't bear the curiosity of his younger brother to Xue Ling's cousin, and came out to solve the problem: "Lu Ning, if you want to eat me, go to the opposite side and buy one."

The girl named Lu Ning waved her hand: "No, I am not hungry, I just can't stand the smell."

Bai Ziren bowed his head and turned his eyes and spoke: "I can't finish it so much, everyone can eat together."

"Don't stop, I don't dare." Lu Ning's face had some subtle changes, and he smirked toward Cheng Jingbo. "He didn't buy it for me."

Bai Ziren heard the other party's meaning outside the string, I don't know how to answer it. I can only hold the whole family bucket and do not move. Next to Cheng Jingbo, I saw her hand and touched her arm: "Nothing, you eat." your."

So, Bai Ziren quickly ate some stomach filling. When she ate, Cheng Jingbo helped her hand the paper towel and water, and Lu Xiang looked at them oppositely. The expression became more and more serious. Of course, Bai Ziren also noticed, although I don't know who Lu Jin is, but I don't dare to ask questions. I have to be curious in my heart.

The operation time is very long, and the waiting is long. Cheng Jingjie is afraid that the two old people can't hold it. They find a lounge to let them go to take a nap. Xue Ling goes outside to answer the phone. Soon, only Bai Ziren, Cheng Jingbo Three people, Lu Jingbo, only slept for three hours last night. At this moment, he closed his eyes and squatted. Bai Ziren was on his side, and he was also a little sleepy. Before closing his eyes, he saw the opposite side of Li Ning’s arms, and his eyes stayed. On Cheng Jingbo's sleeping face, the expression is much softer than it was just now, like watching a baby who appreciates it and is very fond of it.

Bai Ziren closed his eyes and gently adjusted his sitting position.

Although Cheng Jingbo was at rest, but a little movement will be aware of it, and soon opened his eyes to look at Bai Ziren, then quietly got up, went to the nurse station and borrowed a blanket, took it over her, and sat down again. .

All of this fell in the opposite of Lu Xiang’s eyes. There was no such thing as sorrow and grief. When she endured it, she finally reached the limit. She stood up in abundance and walked indignantly. She jumped into the stairway and ran into Xue Ling. Emotionally said that I had to go before, Xue Ling was surprised, and quickly grabbed the phone and screamed at the cousin: "Lime, are you leaving like this? Wait for dinner at night..."

"What kind of meal do you still eat? You didn't see the people around him?" Lu Xiang heard the cousin's words, her head almost blew up, mistakenly thought that everyone would unite to tease her, just jumped up, "I will ask you, help me later." Let's arrange this kind of thing to figure out the situation first. Like today, I still have to be a person?"

Xue Ling was stunned and thought that she might have done something wrong, and she was trembled: "Liu Ning, Cheng Jingbo must be single, we are very clear."

Lu Lim sneered: "He has bought a family bucket for others. What kind of ordinary friend will he be? Don't say that is his sister, his sister has passed away."

After saying the first step, leaving Xue Ling alone is pale.

Cheng Jingbo really took a nap for a while, opened his eyes, and subconsciously looked at his side. Bai Ziren was already awake, bowing his head and folding things. The blanket on her body was already covered on his lap.

"What are you folding?" He looked down at her.

Bai Ziren put down his hand and bent down to pick up the ten paper cranes at his feet and handed them all to him: "I folded some and prayed for your friends."

Cheng Jingbo's gaze quietly browsed the paper cranes folded by Bai Ziren, and picked up one of them to enjoy the details in detail. The long eyelashes moved slightly, whispering: "You fold very well."

After that, he looked at her again. Under the fluorescent lamp, her white skin would look shiny. The black hair didn’t know when it was released. It was scattered on the shoulders, soft and cloud-like, with clear eyes and eyes. Only the reflection that belongs to him is very small and persistent.

I don't know why, at this moment, he wants to protect her.

His long-time gaze made her face hot, and she calmly asked: "What?"

"Nothing." He still looked at her intently. "I think you are more beautiful today than usual."

Cold and not listening to his praise, Bai Ziren's heart almost jumped out, completely afraid to answer, can only bow his head, deliberately pretend to find something, turn left and right, turn around, busy Jingbo asked what she was looking for, she said looking for a mobile phone.

"Is the phone not in your pocket?" He tapped the corner of her jacket pocket and said it directly.

Bai Ziren quickly picked up the mobile phone, but did not know what to do. He had to open the information area silently, looked at a few old text messages, and looked like a statue. Cheng Jingbo saw his eyes and silenced. Look at the front.

When Xue Ling came in, she saw such a scene. Cheng Jingbo and the girl were sitting side by side, and could not help but ask: "Calm, you have not introduced this friend to me."

"She is my friend, come over with me today and wait for the results of the operation."

A sentence is very simple, but Xue Ling has already heard the intimate meaning of it, smiling with a smile: "It is a beautiful and sensible little girl."

Cheng Jingbo answered naturally: "I think so too."

This time, Bai Ziren's entire cheeks were red, and the heat had been burned to the roots of his ears, so he had to bring his mobile phone closer to his face.

Xue Ling is in a complicated mood. On the one hand, she regrets her cousin. On the one hand, Cheng Jingbo finally has a sweetheart and is gratified. I can’t ask for the fate. I want to forget, find an opportunity to apologize to my cousin, and then to her family. Explain, I hope they don't have any complaints. After thinking about it, look down at the watch and remember the two old people who are still in the lounge. I said that I went to see my parents and left.

There are two more left alone, and the atmosphere is a bit strange. Bai Ziren took the initiative to ask something else: "The girl, where did she go?"

"You said Lu Ning? I didn't pay attention. It may have been gone beforehand."

"Her name is Lu Ning, is it your friend?"

"It’s Xue Ling’s cousin, who came to accompany her today.” Cheng Jingbo paused for a while and chose to tell her truthfully. “Actually, my family wanted to match me with her.”

Bai Ziren’s mood was mixed and he had the courage to ask: “Do you like her?”

He heard her doubts, and her eyes were clear and heavy, and the voice was very serious: "Do you think this is possible?"

Bai Ziren is silent. I think that his performance in front of Lu Ning is indeed not a gentleman. Any girl who encounters such an attitude can not get off the stage. He is so obvious. How can she ask, and do more.

"Because she looks good." That is to say, Bai Ziren breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are a lot of good girls, but it doesn't matter to me."

Bai Ziren put his hands on his knees and heard his words, gently snoring.

"Not to mention, I just did something in front of you, she should have no goodwill for me."

The more she listens, the more she feels that he is saying that it is because of her relationship that he will refuse the other party, and there is a feeling of vaguely pursuing her responsibility.

She was wondering, and the voice that was low in the ear and ears said a word again, and decided that it was not an illusion.

What he said is: "Are you responsible for this negative?"
