After Li Mi and the others left, it was nearly three hours before Ni Lu got off work.

After changing his uniform in the staff lounge, stuffing the water cup into his backpack, and saying hello to the proprietress, Ni Lu walked out of the hotpot restaurant.

Ni Lu has an electronic watch, which is not more than 20 yuan, and it is not convenient to wear it during work, so it is stuffed in the side pocket of his backpack. Now he finds it to check the time, and it is more than 20 minutes before the last bus enters the station.

Ni Lu quickened his pace and walked towards the bus station.

When stopping at a traffic light, a car stopped at the intersection.It might be because of the stillness of the night and the cool wind. The front window of this car was open, and Ni Lu's eyes glanced casually, and then looked away in the next second.

The people sitting in the car were their student union president and his roommate who had never slept in a dormitory for a night. When the red light stopped, the two were chatting and laughing.

When the green light on the sidewalk turned on, Ni Lu hesitated for a second, but decided to stop at the same spot.

Walking on the sidewalk is bound to pass in front of the car parked at the intersection, Ni Lu does not want these two people to see him.

The green light turned on, but the people waiting on the side of the road remained motionless. Zhang Yucheng, who was holding the steering wheel with one hand, raised his eyes slightly due to some abnormal behavior, and cast his peripheral vision there.

Xianxin noticed it immediately, stopped talking, and turned her head to look at Zhang Yucheng's gaze, "Isn't that Ni Lu?"

Zhang Yucheng: "Xiao Xin, do you know his name?"

Xian Xin looked back at him and said, "He shares a dormitory with me, even though I haven't even been to the dormitory building. He scored two points higher than me in sketching in the art entrance examination. The subject I am most confident in is art, after all. I have studied painting for more than ten years, and I have also studied under famous masters. I never wanted to be compared with him. Later I asked him how many years he had studied sketching, and wanted to know where I lost, but he said that he had never learned it. Brother Cheng , You said you are not angry, you have never learned to draw so well, are you lying to ghosts?"

Zhang Yucheng reached out and rubbed his head, "It's just an insignificant person, it's not worth Xiaoxin's anger."

After being coaxed by the opposite person, Xianxin immediately became happy, and smiled sweetly at him.

When the green light came on, Zhang Yucheng drove the car out and left the man on the side of the road far behind. Zhang Yucheng looked at the road ahead and turned the steering wheel slightly: "Do you still remember the man you saw in the woods when school started?" ?”

Xian Xin's obsessive gaze stayed on Zhang Yucheng's flickering face under the light of the street lamp, "I remember, but it was just a quick glance at that time, and the man's hair was so long that it almost covered his face, I don't know What does he look like?"

Zhang Yucheng said: "He is the roommate you just saw."

The astonishment flashed in Xianxin's eyes.

Not long after the next morning's class, Xianxin, who hadn't even stepped into the gate of the dormitory building for freshmen since the start of school, appeared in dormitory 302.I came up with Jichen.

The most exaggerated reaction was the young and lively Li Mi, who was about to crawl on the bed to get things, but when he saw Xian Xin coming in, he stopped taking things and jumped off the ladder directly.

"Xianxin, why are you here today?"

Xianxin smiled gently, "It's inconvenient for me to go back today, so I came here to rest at noon. Why, is it inconvenient?"

Li Mi hurriedly said: "There is no inconvenience, you are also a member of 302, you can come whenever you want, your bed is always reserved for you."

When Xianxin appeared, Xu Jianbai stopped playing computer games, and Ji Pengyun got off the bed, and they all gathered around to say hello and chat with Xianxin.Demonstrate the enthusiasm of the roommates in the 302 dormitory.

Xianxin glanced around the dormitory, and found that there was one person missing, "Why don't you see Ni Lu, where are others?"

Ji Pengyun said: "He is either working part-time or on the way to work. He seldom comes back at noon, and he doesn't come back until the lights are turned off at night."

Xian Xin nodded and walked to the side, "This is my bed, right?" Although he has never been to dormitory 302, he likes the color and style of the bedding on the bed.

Ji Chen said, "Yes. No one has ever gone up after your driver came to the shop."

Xianxin looked at the other adjacent bed, then smiled at Li Mi, "The bed next to me is yours?" He saw Li Mi jumping off this bed just now.

"That's right!" Li Mi pointed to another bed adjacent to Xianxin, "That bed belongs to Lao Ji — that's Ji Pengyun's."

Li Mi also told the owners of the remaining three beds, "Ji Chen's bed is opposite to yours, Xu Jianbai's bed is this one, and the bed at the farthest corner is Lu—Ni Lu's."

Xianxin's eyes stayed on Ni Lu's bed for two more seconds.

"By the way, I prepared gifts for you all." Xianxin took off her backpack and put it on the table, opened it and took out a few small boxes, "It's not something expensive, it's a mobile phone pendant I made myself."

Li Mi took the small box that Xianxin handed over, and said happily: "Xianxin, you are too kind, and you brought us a gift."

Xian Xin handed out the small boxes one by one, with faint smile lines on the corners of her mouth, "I used to be in poor health and stayed in the hospital for rest. When I had nothing to do, I liked to make some small things to pass the time. I just did it casually. I didn't do it very well. I hope Don't be disgusted."

Jichen opened the gift box, which was no bigger than a thumb, and poured it into his palm, and out came out a string of small star pendants made of clay. They were not very delicate, but they were handmade.It was obvious that Jichen liked it very much, so he immediately took out his phone, peeled off the case and hung it up, and at the same time said to Xianxin: "No, it's very well done, I like it."

Few people will be unhappy when receiving a gift that is sincerely given.The same is true for Li Mi and others. They opened the small boxes one after another, and the pendants poured out included a little moon, a little gourd, and a little bear's head. They all showed their liking with actions and hung them on the phone cases.

Four were sent out, and there was one left in Xianxin's hand, Li Mi took it on his own initiative, "This is for Ni Lu, he can't tell when he will come back, why don't you leave it to me, and I'll hand it over to him when he comes back. "

Xian Xin smiled and handed it to Li Mi without objection, "Then thank you."

Xian Xin took out her mobile phone from the side pocket of her backpack and said, "Last time you said you would add me to our dormitory group, but I hadn't registered at that time, so I didn't add you. I just registered an account a few days ago, maybe Now that you know how to operate, you can add me to our dormitory group, so that it will be convenient for communication in the future.”

Jichen was more active than Li Mi in this matter, and before Li Mi could react, he had already added Xianxin as a friend and pulled him into the group, and his rival with Xianxin patiently told him how to operate.

Not long after joining the group, Xianxin first posted an emoji: "(=^_^=)"

Xianxin: "Hi everyone!"

Jichen: "Warmly welcome! (n_n)/"

Li Mi: "Happy! (*^O^*)"

Xu Jianbai: "Welcome in line! (^_^)"

Ji Pengyun: "Welcome! (^m^)"

Li Mi: "It's a pity that Brother Lu is not in the group, otherwise our dormitory group would be full of people."

Li Mi posted this in the group, and Xianxin couldn't help but look up at him when she saw it, and said, "Brother Lu? Ni Lu? Why isn't he in the group?"

Jichen explained: "Don't talk about joining the group, he doesn't even have a mobile phone."

Xian Xin raised her eyebrows in surprise, and after a while, said "Oh" thoughtfully.

These days, it's not surprising that you don't have money, but it's strange if you don't have a mobile phone.

In just one noon, the relationship between Xianxin and the four roommates has become much closer.

During the chat, Ji Pengyun said that Xianxin knew that he was born in a wealthy family at a glance, and that he was a son of a son. He looked far away from them and was not easy to get close to. He never thought that Xianxin was so easy-going.

At noon, Xianxin didn't wait to come to Ni Lu, and Ni Lu went back to the dormitory at night, but Xianxin didn't come back, and the two of them still didn't meet in the dormitory.

Although they were in the same classroom in class, they had never had much interaction.

Before and after class, Xianxin is always surrounded by many people, while Ni Lu is used to sitting in a corner, alone.

When Ni Lu came back after the lights were turned off at night, Li Mi gave him the mobile phone pendant.Ni Lu opened it and saw that it was a mini rainbow lollipop and put it away. He had no mobile phone to hang on to.

And Xian Xin only appeared in the dormitory once, but he was in the 302 dormitory group, and he could keep up with chatting and joking in the group, without any airs.Compared with Ni Lu who goes out early and returns late every day, he seems to have a better relationship with Li Mi and the others.

The meeting in front of the traffic lights that night, Ni Lu just took it as an accident and didn't take it seriously. He never thought that a few days later, he ran into Zhang Yucheng and Xianxin by accident.

A colleague who worked at a hot pot restaurant with Ni Lu introduced him to a job, distributing leaflets in the CBD some distance from the school, and distributing leaflets in doll costumes on hot days, 60 yuan an hour.

In this kind of weather, standing outdoors wearing heavy doll clothes is very easy to suffer from heat stroke.Ni Lu, who was wearing a duckling doll costume, took a chance and stood at the entrance of a shopping mall specializing in luxury goods, blowing the air-conditioning from the cracks in the glass doors, while handing out leaflets to people entering and leaving.

In fact, it doesn't have much effect, unless you can really enter the mall to blow air-conditioning, otherwise it will still be very stuffy.Just standing there for a while, Ni Lu's body stuffed in the doll clothes was soaked in sweat like a bath, or a hot bath.

Standing at the entrance of the shopping mall is more of a comfort in my heart, which is better than standing under the sun.

Ni Lu met Zhang Yucheng and Xianxin under such circumstances.The two came out of the shopping mall. Zhang Yucheng was holding a few paper bags with the logo of a certain luxury brand printed on them. It seemed that they were selling men's clothing.

Xianxin was a little close to Zhang Yucheng, holding his sleeves, tilting his head slightly to look at Zhang Yucheng, who was a head taller than him, with long eyelashes covering his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were obviously raised, talking to Zhang Yucheng.

The expression on Zhang Yucheng's face was the same as what he saw at the intersection that night at Ni Lu, very relaxed and casual.It can be seen that when he faces Xianxin, he is very natural, even with a little pampering.

The revolving door automatically turned out, not only sending out a trace of coolness, Zhang Yucheng and Xianxin also walked towards Ni Lu who was standing by the roadside.

Zhang Yucheng has long seen the doll duck standing outside the door with a bright yellow color and a cute and cute look. When he and Xianxin walked out of the mall, the duck holding a thick stack of leaflets seemed to have discovered it. They paused before handing over a leaflet.

Zhang Yucheng smiled politely and refused.

When passing by the duck, Xianxin glanced back, then said disapprovingly to Zhang Yucheng, "Brother Cheng, the coffee shop not far ahead, the desserts inside are delicious..."

Zhang Yucheng: "Xiao Xin, you can't eat too much sweet food."

Xianxin: "Don't worry, I'll just eat a little bit, Brother Cheng, can you help me eat the rest?"

Zhang Yucheng: "If you can't eat, I can only help you."

Xianxin: "Brother Cheng, you are the best!"

The two drifted away, and the cute duck continued to distribute leaflets to passers-by.
