Love Letters

Chapter 56: Red rope to ward off evil spirits?

You choose the time quite well. If I don’t agree to the application today, it will expire.

Jiang Yifeng: [What are you doing? ]

He Miao: [Learning.]

He Miao glanced at Xu Mobai beside her. He was still working on his homework seriously and didn't seem to notice that she was secretly playing with her phone.

She gently put the pen down, picked up her phone and started typing.

[You should study hard, or you will end up working in a factory. ]

Jiang Yifeng replied with an emoticon and then called.

Fortunately, He Miao had already turned the phone to mute mode. She picked up her phone and sat in another corner.

Jiang Yifeng's bright voice was heard immediately after the call was connected. He seemed to be outside, and there were sounds of playing ball around him.

"It's my birthday next Saturday, do you want to come?"

He Miao lowered his voice and hesitated, "Saturday?"

She and Xu Mobai agreed to study on Saturday...it was an opportunity that was hard to come by.

"Come on, there will be lots of delicious food and fun things to do."

“Can I have as much ice cream as I want?”

“Eat as much as you want!”

"That......"

"You're wrong here."

A cold and gentle voice suddenly came from behind him, and He Miao was stunned.

She turned around unexpectedly and saw Xu Mobai standing behind her, as if imprisoning her.

His cheek was so close, the tip of his nose almost touching the side of her face, and his breath sprayed on her ears, making her ears suddenly feel hot.

He Miao could even clearly feel his body temperature and the faint mint scent on him.

She was so frightened that she lost her mind and didn't know how to start.

The pen on the table fell to the ground because of her distraction.

Is this person really.....he has no sense of distance?

"He Miao, who are you with?"

Jiang Yifeng's voice was still coming from the phone.

"Classmate."

"Then you should study hard and teach me later. We are in the same row, so you can't take off secretly."

"You want me to teach you?"

He Miao was a little surprised. It was the first time someone asked her to teach...

"I charge for teaching people, and it's not cheap."

"I'll give you a discount if you know me! I..."

"Afeng, come quickly!"

Someone urged him, and Jiang Yifeng quickly responded, "Coming!"

"He Miao, you must come!"

Jiang Yifeng finished his speech and hung up the phone.

Xu Mobai had returned to his previous position, far away from her.

She sat back down obediently, flipped through the book, then raised her head and asked him: "Next Saturday I want to..."

"up to you."

Xu Mobai didn't look at her, his attention was completely focused on studying.

He Miao felt embarrassed to disturb him and started to do his own questions.

"Where is wrong?"

She calculated over and over again and still got the same result, which puzzled her for a moment.

"here."

He Miao's eyes fell on the position of his fingers, and saw his slender fingers lightly circle, marking out all the important information.

He Miao blushed, and then he realized that this was the topic he had just taught...

The phone screen lit up, and He Miao's attention was immediately drawn to it again.

It was Du Yuze who was sending her messages, one after another, looking very anxious.

He Miao took a quick glance at it and turned it off, then returned to his studies.

"Are you familiar with him?"

He suddenly raised his eyelashes to look at her, his eyes were dark, and his voice was a little doubtful.

He Miao subconsciously asked him, "Who?"

"Who are you familiar with?"

He Miao suddenly looked up at the sky, as if thinking.

"Fei Fei, Du Yuze..."

She mentioned everything she could think of, including him.

"I wish I could get to know you better."

He Miao's eyes are bright, he is sincere and straightforward, and he does not hesitate to express his inner thoughts.

Xu Mobai was startled by her stare, and then looked away awkwardly.

"You see, this is wrong again."

He rolled up his sleeves a little and continued to explain the problem to her.

He Miao saw the red rope on his wrist and this time he no longer hid it.

"Is this red rope of yours used to ward off evil spirits?"

Hearing this, Xu Mobai was stunned, then chuckled: "Well, it's used to ward off evil spirits."

"show me?"

He stretched out his hand and spread it out for her to see.

He Miao grabbed his fingers and looked at them. The red rope was ordinary, without even any pendant. It was just tied around the wrist.

The afterglow was very weak, and the buffer zone on the road seemed to be shining with golden light, as if the sun had not yet set.

On the way back, they run into Liu Feifei, who looks sneaky.

"You go back first, I'll go find her."

"Fifi!"

Liu Feifei was stunned, as if she had been caught and looked a little guilty.

"So it's you, Miao'er. You scared me to death!"

"What are you doing here?"

"No...nothing."

"Who was that person just now?"

"No... just asking for directions."

Liu Feifei suddenly took He Miao's hand, a little flustered, "Where did you go today?"

"We study in the study room."

"us?"

Liu Feifei accurately captured the information in He Miao's words.

"You and who?"

"Xu Mobai."

"You and our class committee member?"

She immediately became interested and bumped into her, "How are you guys?"

He Miao staggered after being bumped by her. "It's fine."

He Miao's panicked reaction made him unable to hide his inner thoughts, and Liu Feifei saw through it at a glance.

"you like him?"

“I like him teaching me.”

"It's not like he's the only one who can teach you."

"No no no!"

He Miao stretched out his index finger and shook it, "He's the only one who won't get angry, and won't think I'm stupid."

The others were becoming more and more irritable and impatient, and asked the teacher, but the teacher not only thought she was stupid, but also refused to explain in detail.

"It makes sense that you want him to teach you, but what good will that do him?"

"You are stupid, lazy, and you like to dwell on trivial matters..."

He Miao curled his lips in dissatisfaction, "You make me sound like a waste..."

But she did think seriously about what Liu Feifei said.

"I see."

"what?"

"Maybe Xu Mobai wants to be a teacher in the future."

Liu Feifei:.......

"Miao'er, I do think he seems to care about you. Last time he even stopped me to ask about you."

Liu Feifei recalled it and then said with a tone of seeing through, "He obviously looks indifferent to girls, but he is actually very popular and is actually so good at chasing people."

She seemed to be analyzing the plot and characters of a novel. "If a serious top student like him stops suppressing himself and seriously decides on someone to pursue, no girl would not be moved, right?"

"Don't take such groundless rumors as facts."

He Miao didn't take what Liu Feifei said very seriously. Although she had been getting along well with Xu Mobai recently, she still wanted to focus all her energy and attention on studying.

"Don't talk about me, tell me about yours."

He Miao changed the subject at the right time, "Du Yuze asked what you have been doing during this period."

"Don't mention him to me. I get angry when I talk about that guy Du Yuze. Can't he be more mature? He's so old but still so childish."

The two are childhood sweethearts and neighbors, and have been in the same class since kindergarten.

"I'm tired of it."

As if she had made some kind of determination, Liu Feifei swore, "I must get rid of him in the college entrance examination."

“He seems to have good grades.”

He Miao mentioned it lightly, and seeing that she had made up her mind to study hard, he didn't want to spoil her fun.

"Good luck on the final exams. We'll try to get a full class next semester."

At night, the temperature dropped a little.

After taking a shower, He Miao climbed into bed and prepared to go to sleep.

Today was the day she studied most seriously and effectively.

She felt a little pain in her head, it seemed that she was tired, so she needed to rest early tonight.

She and Xu Mobai agreed to study only on Saturday, and she would catch up on sleep on Sunday.

Not long after I fell asleep, my cell phone rang.

"Hello? Who is it?"

He Miao was feeling a little irritated and confused.

"it's me."

There was a smile and a joking voice coming from the other end of the phone.

"Why do you have my phone number?"

He Miao suddenly sat up alertly.
