Chapter 8 You Might Have to Wake Me Up

After Wen Jiaoer took a shower, he lay on the bed distractedly and played with his mobile phone.There was the sound of rushing water in the bathroom, Li Li must be taking a bath.

After the bathroom door was opened, a wet scent came out along with the water vapor.Li Li was wearing a blue plaid pajamas, with the smell of sea salt shower gel on his body, and his long black hair was slightly curly, hanging down like a waterfall.Wen Jiaoer refreshed Weibo over and over again, but her eyes were fixed on Li Li.

Click!I met Li Li's eyes!

"What's wrong?" Li Li asked while wiping her hair.

"It's okay, it's okay." Wen Jiaoer shifted his gaze to the phone again with a guilty conscience.

Wen Jiaoer turned to face the wall, but her ears carefully caught Li Li's voice behind her.

After a while, Li Li suddenly asked, "Do you still use the lamp?"

"Ah! No need, no need." Wen Jiaoer habitually repeated the words when he was nervous, it's all right, all right, no need, no need.

"Then I'll turn off the light." Li Li said as he walked towards the door switch.

"Crack!" The room immediately plunged into darkness.Jiaoer frantically turned on the flashlight of the phone to illuminate Li Li.

"Thank you, Jiao Er." Li Li said.

"It's okay, it's okay." Jiao Er watched Li Li walk to the bed, and then turned off the flashlight.

There was no other movement in the room, only rustling sounds, probably Li Li was making the quilt.

"Well, Li Li, are you going to perform morning exercises tomorrow?" Wen Jiaoer hesitated for a while before asking.

"Go, what's the matter?" Li Li replied, with a little tiredness in his tone.

"Then let's go together tomorrow morning!" Wen Jiaoer said cautiously.

"Okay, but you may have to wake me up, I'm a bit sleepy." Li Li said.

"It's okay, it's okay. I'll set an alarm for six o'clock, is that okay?" Wen Jiaoer jumped with joy.

"Yes." Li Li replied.

"Then go to sleep! Good night!"

"Good night!" Li Li turned over while talking.

Wen Jiaoer's heart was sweet, Li Li said good night to her!And tomorrow I will do the morning exercise with her, after the morning exercise, we can have breakfast together, after breakfast we can go to class together, after class we can have lunch together, and after lunch we can go back to the dormitory together.Wow!It turns out that "when you like someone, you have already spent your whole life with her in your heart", this sentence is true.Wen Jiaoer has already started planning for her future campus life, and of course everything is related to Li Li.

At six o'clock in the morning, the vibrating alarm sounded from the mobile phone, Wen Jiao'er didn't just stay on the bed for a few minutes like before, but jumped up from the bed immediately.It was still dark at six o'clock in the morning. Jiaoer turned on the small lamp on the table, dressed in the faint light, and then combed her hair with a comb a few times. After confirming that her image was still good, she called Li Li got up.

"Li Li, it's six o'clock. Get up!" Wen Jiaoer lowered his voice as much as possible, for fear of scaring the sleeping Li Li.

"En. Good." Li Li answered in a daze on the bed, because she was still asleep, when she spoke, she still had a nasal voice, her voice was a little hoarse, and it sounded sticky.It is completely different from the high-cold image when he is sober.

Seeing that she agreed, Jiao Er went to the bathroom to wash up first.While I was brushing my teeth, I heard nothing outside.She spit out the toothpaste foam in her mouth and went outside to have a look.It really hasn't moved yet!

"Li Li, wake up! I still have to do morning work!" Wen Jiaoer yelled again helplessly.

"Yes. That's it." Li Li agreed, and his voice became much clearer.As she spoke, she sat up.

Seeing this, Jiao Er went back to the bathroom to wash her face.After washing up and coming out of the bathroom, Li Li was already dressed.He wore a brick red sweater on his upper body, a pair of smoky gray woolen carrot pants, and a pair of black horsebit loafers on his feet.His long hair has not been combed, and it is messily pasted on the sweater.

"Are you finished washing? Then I'll go in and wash up." Li Li walked into the bathroom slowly with a sleepy look.

Jiaoer looked at his phone, it was six fifteen.She quickly sat down at the table, quickly patted the lotion on her face, put on a layer of sunscreen, then a layer of liquid foundation, and then put lipstick on her lips to finish the job.As for the eye makeup, forget it, Jiaoer finds round metal-rimmed glasses from the drawer and puts them on.

Putting on a coat, Jiao Er took a picture in front of the full-length mirror, her hair in a shawl tied into a half bun, a camel coat over a white turtleneck sweater, a pair of blue bootcut jeans underneath, and a pair of white sportswear on her feet. Shoes, light gray wool socks protruding from the trousers.

Jiaoer looked at the phone again, it was 23:[-].It's over, I think Li Li will be late when he finishes putting on his makeup!Wen Jiaoer was thinking about it, but saw Li Li sitting in front of the table after washing and applying lotion, then picked up the caramel-colored coat on the chair and put it on, saying, "Let's go!" Take the mask out of your pocket and put it on your face.

"You...you don't wear makeup?" Wen Jiaoer was really startled by Li Li's speed.

"I don't have time, so I won't melt. I have a mask." Li Li's voice came out of the mask, looking muffled.

"Oh!" Wen Jiaoer was talking, and followed Li Li towards the outside of the dormitory building.

During morning exercises, Wen Jiaoer opened his voice while paying attention to Li Li beside him.When practicing morning exercises before, Li Li was often a few people away from her, and she didn't dare to look at Li Li too much.Today Li Li was yawning while reading his lines, with a deep tiredness on his face.I just returned home last night, so I guess I haven't even reversed the jet lag!Wen Jiaoer felt sorry for her.

After the morning work was finally over, Li Li and Wen Jiaoer, who were yawning, walked towards the cafeteria.Seeing the milk tea shop next to her, Jiao Er's eyes lit up.

"Li Li, you go to the cafeteria first. I'll go to the milk tea shop next to me, and I'll meet you in a while." Jiaoer walked towards the milk tea shop next to him while talking.

When Jiaoer walked into the cafeteria with a cup of coffee and found Li Li, Li Li had already bought breakfast and was waiting for her at a table by the window.

"Here you are! Coffee! I'm going to buy food first." Jiaoer put the coffee on the table and went to buy food.

After Jiao Er had bought breakfast, she hurried back to her seat, only to find that there were several classmates sitting at that table.

"Jiaoer, here!" They shouted her name excitedly.

Jiao Er was a little frustrated, and walked towards the table by the window with the dinner plate.

"Hey! Li Li, have you gone to Iceland?"

"Yes."

"Is Iceland fun?"

"pretty good."

"Did you see the aurora?"

"No."

"That's a pity."

"Yes, probably there is no fate!"

"Hey! How do I remember that you and the instructor asked for a leave of absence to check your legs?"

"Yeah, so don't let the guide know that I'm going to Iceland."

Wen Jiaoer listened to the chat between the classmates and Li Li, without interjecting a word, and ate in silence.

"Hey! Why don't our little stars talk?" When the meal was almost over, a classmate noticed the silent Jiao Er and joked with her.

"I got up too early, I'm a little sleepy." Jiaoer smiled and explained.

"Jiaoer, are you used to living in school recently?" The female class monitor at the side asked with concern.

"Very good." Jiao Er said after drinking the last sip of soy milk in the bowl.

After seeing that everyone had finished eating, everyone left together and went to the classroom for class.Jiao Er and Li Li walked at the back, Li Li had already put on a mask and still held the cup of coffee in his hand.

"Thank you for the coffee." Li Li's voice came out of the mask, Jiaoer couldn't see her expression, but her eyes were still like a calm lake.

"You're welcome." Jiao Er showed a smiling face.

"Unexpectedly, you are quite good at taking care of people." Li Li continued.

"Not really." Jiaoer Tuotuo said shyly with his glasses.

How can she take care of others? When she is away from home, even the socks are washed by the assistant.When I eat an apple at home, my mother peels it and hands it to her.She is nothing more than putting her eyes on the person she likes, feeling what she feels, thinking what she thinks.

"What are you two whispering in the back! Hurry up, you're going to be late for class." The classmate in front greeted the two of them.

The two also quickened their pace after hearing this.

Wen Jiaoer didn't have any schedule during this time, except for going home on weekends, she basically stayed at school.The days passed peacefully and steadily.Get up at six o'clock every day, do morning exercises at 06:30, and go to have breakfast after practicing morning exercises.After breakfast, she would go to the classroom if there was a class, and would stay in the dormitory and play with her mobile phone if there was no class.Most of the time, Li Li also stayed in the dormitory, but Li Li was always reading.She has already read that suicide note.The book she is reading recently is "The Lover". Wen Jiaoer has not read the book, but has seen the movie.The story takes place in the hot and humid tropics. A weak Chinese man falls in love with a beautiful French girl. The two have been entangled for a long time but still separated.Jiaoer remembered that the leading actor in that movie was Liang Jiahui, and some lingering scenes in it made her blush.

But every Monday, Wednesday and Sunday afternoon, Li Li would always go out at [-] or [-] o'clock, and then said that she didn't have to wait for her for dinner, and she would come back very late.Of course, she really came back after stepping on the door every time.Until one Wednesday night, when the gate was about to be closed, Jiao Er suddenly received a call from Li Li.

"Hey, Jiaoer. I'm on my way back to school. You tell the dormitory auntie to close the door later. There is some traffic jam here, so I might go back later." Li Li's voice was still breathless, like It's like just running 800 meters.

"Okay, I got it. Don't worry, be careful on the road." Jiao Er comforted her thoughtfully.

After Jiao Er went downstairs and told her aunt, she turned on the light in the dormitory and waited for Li Li to come back.After more than half an hour, she heard heavy footsteps in the corridor.She sat up from the bed and stared at the bedroom door.

"Squeak!" It really was Li Li!She pushed open the door, still carrying a chill from the outside.

"Haven't slept yet?" Li Li asked, his voice panting.

"Well. Not very sleepy." Jiaoer said.

"Did I bother you? I'm really sorry, something happened at the bar today. When it was all over, I realized it was already too late. I didn't even take off my makeup." Li Li, who cherishes words like gold, actually said today So many words.

"Bar?" Wen Jiaoer only fished out one piece of information she was interested in from this passage.

"Yes, I'm a resident singer in a bar." Li Li explained.

It was only then that Jiaoer noticed the slightly heavy stage makeup on Li Li's face.It turns out that when she goes out every Monday and Wednesday, she goes to the bar as a resident singer!I don't know what Li Li looks like when he sings on the stage.Jiaoer only saw Li Li sing once, and that time was in KTV.At that time, Li Li's eyes were red, and his whole body exuded a strange aura, and he sang a song with a particularly resentful tone.

When Jiaoer was in a daze, Li Li had already gone into the bathroom to take off her make-up and wash up.After Li Li finished washing, Jiao Er who was lying on the bed hesitated for a while before speaking.

"Isn't it cool to be a resident singer in a bar?"

"Ah?" Li Li, who was about to get under the quilt, was a little confused by Jiao Er's words, and he said after a while, "That's it, it's not cool!"

"Then what songs do you sing in the bar?" Jiao Er put on a very curious look.

"Let's see what the boss wants to sing! Sometimes you can play freely." Li Li explained patiently.

"Then can I go to your bar to watch you sing?" Wen Jiaoer asked bravely.

Li Li was silent for a while and didn't speak.

"I promise I won't cause you any trouble, okay?" Seeing that Li Li didn't speak, Wen Jiaoer continued to promise because she was afraid that she would not agree.

"What if you are recognized? I don't care."

"It's okay, I'll just wrap it up more tightly." Wen Jiaoer said quickly, looking at Li Li with watery almond eyes.

"It's fine if you don't mind. I will also be a resident singer at the bar this Sunday. Do you have time to come?" Li Li asked.

"I have time. Then I will come to school early this Sunday, can you take me there?" Wen Jiaoer couldn't hold back his excitement.

"Well, I'll wait for you on Sunday afternoon." Li Li replied.

"Okay, then I'll go to bed!" Jiao Er said "La" at the end of the word, which sounded like a coquettish taste.

"Well, good. Good night." Li Li said with a smile.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Wen Jiaoer didn't understand Li Li's smile.

"It's okay, go to sleep!" Li Li had already got into the quilt.

"OK, good night."
