fall in love too early

The author has something to say: When the path is about to bend but not bent~

Qi Jia was locked up at home for a day, drank the two cans of milk stored in the refrigerator, and did not eat anything else.

The conflict between him and Lu Baifei in the corridor made him feel unbearable to recall.Lu Baifei has always been able to do things with ease, never getting angry or turning his face, but Qi Jia almost loses control and loses face in front of Lu Baifei.

Qi Jia didn't even want to go out and take the same path again.That hallway is like a heartbreak checkpoint, recording his first love and self-esteem that fell to pieces and couldn't be picked up.

He locked himself up, curled up on the sofa to watch a movie, squatted by the refrigerator door to drink milk, and later even dug out a copy of "Game Theory and Economic Behavior" from the suitcase, and sat on the bed until late at night.

This book was originally one of the courses of the Department of Theoretical Economics at the University of Chicago. Qi Jia is a person who thinks out of the way and is very annoyed by the metaphysical content. Before that, I always read the original book intermittently.Now, in order to escape from reality and find a tree hole to heal his wounds, this thought-provoking theoretical book has become a life-saving medicine, and finally helped him divert his attention.It wasn't until he was so tired that he fell asleep and woke up near noon the next day that he felt a little relieved.

Qi Jia didn't look at his phone all day, the screen was filled with notifications of unread messages and missed calls, but the first thing he saw was Lu Baifei's WeChat ID.

The reason was that Zhou Yixin hadn't been able to contact Qi Jia last night, so out of worry, she asked her old classmate Bai Sha to ask Lu Baifei to ask about Qi Jia's situation.

Of course Lu Baifei knew the reason why Qi Jia lost contact, but he couldn't tell the truth to his elders.Since he has already promised his mother Baisha, he can only send a message to Qi Jia, and he has the right to complete the task.

Qi Jia looked at the slightly unfamiliar greeting on the screen, and reluctantly replied three words: I'm fine.

After sending it out, he was still a little unwilling, and typed another sentence: I'm sorry, brother, I really like you.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he finally chose to send.

Qi Jia is not the kind of stalker, on the contrary, he has always been very sensitive to the boundaries of interpersonal relationships.He also knows that confession must be consensual, and unilaterally saying that he likes it will only annoy people.However, Lu Baifei hit a point in his heart, and he was honest because he couldn't help it, and it was no different when he said sorry.

The message was sent as soon as it was sent, and Qi Jia didn't expect Lu Baifei to reply.He himself had hypoglycemia and only drank two cans of milk all day. Now he was dizzy from hunger and leaned against the wall to find food in the kitchen.

Lu Baifei received Qi Jia's message during the last class in the morning.

The first one said "I'm fine", and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief after reading it.

The second reads "Sorry bro, I really like you".

Lu Baifei stared blankly at the phone screen for a while, and a classmate sitting on the side came over to chat with him, he turned his head to deal with it, but the stuffy feeling in his chest came up, and he remembered that he frequently appeared in his dreams last night. Qi Jia in the movie.

Lu Baifei was unwilling to pursue the reason behind this.The suitors he rejected since he was a child can make up a class, and no one has made him feel so guilty.Qi Jia should not be that exception.

At first he wasn't going to reply to Qi Jia.It's good to deal with it coldly, and the distance will make them slowly return to the position of ordinary friends.

But when the day was approaching the evening, after eating in the school cafeteria, he took out his mobile phone again for no reason.Lu Baifei gave up, he admitted that he cared a little about Qi Jia, but it was chaos.

He clicked into the WeChat dialog box, thought about it, and sent out a message in a harmless tone: Aunt Zhou is very worried about you, so let's answer her calls in time.

This message took Lu Baifei out by himself, but he expressed his concern in a roundabout way.

After about 10 minutes, Qi Jia replied in a somewhat restrained tone, "Understood."

For the next few days, Qi Jia would send messages to ask Lu Baifei about some small daily matters.It's not all about looking for something to talk about. After all, Qi Jia has been studying abroad alone for several years. After returning to China, she will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable. In some places, someone needs to answer questions.

Lu Baifei will give help responsibly, but don't say too many irrelevant things, so as not to misunderstand Qi Jia.

Qi Jia also didn't take the initiative to talk about any extraneous topics, as if the relationship between him and Lu Baifei stopped here.The accident early that morning drew a clear line between them, and Qi Jia would not cross another half step.

Lu Baifei couldn't say how he felt about it, Qi Jia could only contact him once a day, sooner or later.If he doesn't receive a message all morning, he can't help but look at his phone more in the afternoon.This kind of situation has never happened before. Lu Baifei explained to himself that after all, he was entrusted by the elders, so it is natural for him to worry more about Qi Jia.

The two of them spent a week in this subtle way.Lu Baifei saw Qi Jia again, and it was outside the student activity center building in the south of the University of Science and Technology campus.

At that time, Lu Baifei was in the backstage of the small auditorium on the second floor, and all the students who came in and out of this place were participating in the English Weekly Preliminary Competition.Lu Baifei chose a corner seat by the window, avoiding the crowd a little bit, while plucking the strings to familiarize himself with fingering, while staring at the campus outside the window in a trance.

When Qi Jia appeared on the long steps outside the auditorium holding a bouquet, Lu Baifei recognized him almost immediately.

It was almost evening at this time, and the street lights on the campus were all turned on.The light-colored coat that Qi Jia was wearing was made of some kind of fabric, and it had a little reflective effect, which made his whole body smudged into a layer of silver halo, as if with an unreal floating feeling, slowly from the The ground rises.

Holding a bouquet of warm-colored flowers, he walked up the thirty stairs alone at a steady pace, and finally disappeared in Lu Baifei's blind spot.

Lu Baifei didn't receive a message from Qi Jia all day long, and he didn't know if he would come to see her performance.Until seeing Qi Jia appearing at this time, Lu Baifei seemed to suddenly regain his spirits.He got up from his seat with his guitar in his arms, and confirmed the order of his performance with a classmate in charge of backstage coordinator.

About half an hour before he was on stage, Lu Baifei counted the students in front of him and left one by one. Finally, someone called his lottery number and name. He quickly arranged his clothes, and then entered the performance channel.

When the host read out the words "Department of Chemistry, Lu Baifei", the audience's reaction was obviously much more enthusiastic than before, mixed with the cheers of young school girls one after another.

Lu Baifei's performance was relatively late, and the small auditorium that could accommodate more than 400 people was already full of audience, even the aisle was full of people standing, so he couldn't see where Qi Jia was sitting.

He took the stage wearing a simple white shirt and jeans, stood in front of the microphone, and only said "Hello, teacher..." before being drowned out by deafening screams.In fact, wearing a white shirt is not Lu Baifei's usual style of dressing, but because several female ministers of the chemistry student union strongly urged him to kill the judges with a "clean and youthful" image, he had no choice but to follow the public opinion and wear I forced myself to rely on the campus style.

Facts have proved that the vision of those female ministers is still credible.Lu Baifei glanced down the stage, originally wanting to see where Qi Jia was, but all he could see was the camera of the mobile phone with the flash turned on.

He had to give up searching, instead sat down on a high stool, adjusted the height of the microphone, and began to sing "Scarborough Fair" (Scarborough Fair), which he was ordered to prepare for only a week.

Lu Baifei's voice is very suitable for this song. When the guitar prelude was played, there were still noisy voices in the auditorium. When he sang the first line of the lyrics, the twelve rows of seats in front and back suddenly fell silent.Lu Baifei's attraction is indeed not limited to his stunning face, his gloomy voice and steady typhoon made him stand out in a dazzling group of programs, and finally lived up to expectations and won the No.2 result in the preliminary round, which is considered a complete success Completed the task assigned to him by the student union of the chemistry department.

The host announced the rankings of each department on the spot. Lu Baifei once again came to the stage to represent the Department of Chemistry to receive the preliminary competition certificate, and then suddenly saw Qi Jia standing in the audience.

At this time, many students were crowded around the stage taking pictures, and Qi Jia stood on the edge of the crowd a little further away, with a slightly uneasy expression, as if he wanted to hand the bouquet in his hand to Lu Baifei, but stopped because of various concerns not before.

He didn't even raise his head to meet Lu Baifei's gaze, Lu Baifei kept looking in his direction, while he kept his head slightly lowered.

Lu Baifei suddenly felt a little astringency in his heart.

Qi Jia was not supposed to be like this.When they first met at the airport, Qi Jia was still a prickly 19-year-old boy, how could he become so hesitant in less than two weeks.

After receiving the award, Lu Baifei didn't return to the backstage, but went down the side stairs directly.Passing through some classmates who wanted to take a photo with him, and was about to walk towards Qi Jia, a slender figure suddenly pushed aside the crowd and stopped in front of him.

"Xiaolu." Wearing a dress and light makeup, Lu Xiyue called out to him, and handed a bunch of roses in her hand to Lu Baifei, "Congratulations on getting No.2."

Lu Xiyue was actually waiting for Lu Baifei in the audience, but Lu Baifei didn't pay attention to her existence the whole time.

Lu Baifei was stunned for a moment, but didn't reach out to catch the flowers, and looked past Lu Xiyue, but looked at Qi Jia who was a few steps away.

Qi Jia raised her head almost at the same time, and met Lu Baifei's eyes with an uncertain look.

The students around saw Lu Xiyue appearing, which gradually caused a small commotion—the love between Lu Xiyue, a flower in the Department of Biomedicine, and Bai Fei, a student in the Department of Chemistry, has always been talked about by the students of this school.Even though it's been almost half a year since they broke up, there are still many legends about them on the campus forums.

Now that the male and female protagonists meet in full view and send flowers, there seems to be a sign of reunion, and the surrounding audience suddenly became excited, and some even started whistling.

Lu Baifei was still calm, so he turned his gaze back to Lu Xiyue and said, "I have something to do tonight, why don't we contact each other when we are free."

When he spoke, he lowered his voice, and leaned down a little, getting closer to Lu Xiyue, mainly because he didn't want others to hear his response and embarrass the girl in public.

Lu Xiyue frowned, Lu Baifei wanted to leave.The students around gave way blankly.
