sweetheart confession

Pei Zhanyang spoke to Chen Ruixi for the third time, two days later, during lunch in the cafeteria.

Zhang Yuanyao was very curious about Chen Ruixi who suddenly appeared two days ago, but he racked his brains, but he couldn't get any more useful information from Pei Zhanyang's mouth.

There are boarding students and day students in Chenghe No. [-] Middle School. The school has no hard and fast rules on eating and sleeping in the school, and it is all voluntary.

So a good student like Chen Ruixi naturally eats at school in order to save time; and like Pei Zhanyang and Zhang Yuanyao, they don't necessarily go to the cafeteria once in the whole semester.

When school was over at noon, Zhang Yuanyao usually waited for Pei Zhanyang downstairs in the teaching building.At this point in time, the entire staircase was full of people, Zhang Yuanyao walked a little further, and Pei Zhanyang appeared in front of him after a while.

"Brother Pei, what are you going to eat today! How about the casserole? Last night Zijun said that he found a delicious casserole. Let's try it today?"

Last night, Ms. Xie Yushu, Pei Zhanyang's mother, went crazy and made several kinds of hand-ground coffee at home in the evening, and forced Pei Zhanyang to try her craft.Pei Zhanyang couldn't refuse, not only drank it, but also tasted half a glass of each.

This caused him to keep his eyes open until dawn, and he was so sleepy that he couldn't keep his eyes open during class.

Looking at his dazed look, Zhang Yuanyao knew that he had just woken up.He didn't wait for his answer anymore, and made a decision on his own initiative: "Then let's go! Let's go eat casserole!"

Pei Zhanyang slowly raised his eyelids, and said hoarsely, "Go to the cafeteria."

Zhang Yuanyao thought for a moment that there was something wrong with his ears: "What did you say?"

"Go to the cafeteria."

"What are you doing in the cafeteria?!"

"Have a meal."

When Zhang Yuanyao followed Pei Zhanyang into the noisy cafeteria, he couldn't help touching Pei Zhanyang's forehead: "Brother Pei..." Naturally, Pei Zhanyang slapped his hand off without mercy.

Zhang Yuanyao rubbed the back of his red hand, and there was still a last glimmer of hope: "It's really delicious?"

Pei Zhanyang raised his neck, looked around, and took a step when he caught a certain figure.

"Really delicious."

Today is Friday, and Chenghe Middle School's first year of senior high school still has weekends.The students in the class couldn't help themselves at the thought of having a rest tomorrow, and some of them chose to go out for a good meal at noon.

The same goes for Zheng Yaozhe, Chen Ruixi usually has lunch with him.Now he was invited by the two boys at the back table and chose to leave Chen Ruixi behind.

However, Chen Ruixi was used to eating alone. He took the plate from the aunt in the cafeteria, picked his usual seat, and ate with his head down.

He lowered his eyes, thinking about a topic he didn't quite understand in the last class.The dinner plate suddenly appeared in front of him interrupted his thoughts, Chen Ruixi bit his chopsticks and raised his head in confusion.

Pei Zhanyang found someone, and sat opposite him very naturally, while Zhang Yuanyao, who was holding a dinner plate beside him, looked equally confused.

He was confused for a while, and sat next to Pei Zhanyang with great insight.

Pei Zhanyang always appeared in front of him without warning.The matter of delivering milk and umbrellas two days ago had already brought Chen Ruixi to the forefront. If it wasn't for his introverted personality that made him have no friends, and he could be replaced by someone else, these two matters would not be so easy to settle down.

Chen Ruixi is also an excuse for those curious people who come to ask gossip - "I don't know, I really don't know. Don't ask me again, I don't know what he means."

This was the second time Zhang Yuanyao met Chen Ruixi. Pei Zhanyang's strange attitude made him keenly feel that the boy in front of him was not that simple.After Pei Zhanyang sat down, he didn't speak for a long time. Seeing that Zhang Yuanyao was cold, he took the initiative to greet Chen Ruixi: "Why are you eating alone?"

"I went out to eat at the same table." Chen Ruixi looked at Pei Zhanyang's absent-minded expression, put down his chopsticks, and asked hesitantly, "You guys... What's the matter?"

Pei Zhanyang wore a yellow-green patchwork hoodie today, and he even zipped up his school uniform in a rare way.But Chen Ruixi recognized this sweater. Last semester, Pei Zhanyang wore this sweater to play a basketball game. At that time, Chen Ruixi and many boys stood under the basketball hoop.He remembered that Pei Zhanyang scored a lot of goals that day, and many girls on the basketball court were calling his name.

So even if he was pulling the zipper, Chen Ruixi could still describe the characteristics of this sweater - the chest of the sweater was graffiti piled up with many colors, all of which were very conspicuous colors, and they were very in line with Pei Zhanyang's personality.

The bruises from the fight two days ago were also much lighter. Chen Ruixi always felt that he was not very energetic. He guessed that he might not have slept well last night.

Pei Zhanyang watched the eyes of the person sitting opposite him getting more and more wandering, and said abruptly, "Did you win the award?"

"Ah?" Chen Ruixi was stunned for a moment before realizing what Pei Zhanyang said, "Well, yes."

And Zhang Yuanyao still had a misty expression: "What award?"

Chen Ruixi glanced at Pei Zhanyang before turning his attention to Zhang Yuanyao's face: "A game in the city."

"How many prizes?"

"First prize."

"Wow——" Zhang Yuanyao's surprised expression was also very exaggerated, "You are amazing!"

Obviously, Chen Ruixi could see that his praise was not sincere. He naturally knew that Pei Zhanyang was surrounded by a group of people who didn't care about their grades at all, so he followed Zhang Yuanyao's exaggerated acting skills and continued: "No, first class There are three awards in total, I am lucky."

"Hmm!" Zhang Yuanyao echoed and suddenly thought of a question, how did Pei Zhanyang know? !

Not only Zhang Yuanyao was confused, but Chen Ruixi himself was also confused.Pei Zhanyang is not in the same class as him, how did he know about this?

Pei Zhanyang received Chen Ruixi's suspicious gaze, and replied casually: "I heard the principal give your name when I was doing exercises in the morning."

It's also hard to blame that Pei Zhanyang didn't sleep all night last night. He was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes in the morning. He closed his eyes the whole time during the big class break, but he still noticed Chen Ruixi's name from the principal's mouth.

Chen Ruixi nodded blankly: "Oh..." Pei Zhanyang ordered two meat dishes, and Zhang Yuanyao also ordered two meat dishes.Originally, Zhang Yuanyao planned to find a place to make rice, but Chen Ruixi disturbed them, and the two of them have not made rice until now.

Seeing that the chat was almost done, Zhang Yuanyao, adhering to the spirit of not wasting food, asked Pei Zhanyang, "Brother Pei, how much do you want to eat?"

However, Pei Zhanyang leaned over and took the chopsticks from Chen Ruixi's hand.

Chen Ruixi also ordered two dishes, one was scrambled eggs with Chinese cabbage, the other was stewed carrot soup, both of which were vegetarian dishes, which looked very light.

He took Chen Ruixi's chopsticks and put the chicken legs and braised pork on his plate into Chen Ruixi's plate, and then put the veal steak and white-cut chicken on Zhang Yuanyao's plate into Chen Ruixi's plate.

Zhang Yuanyao: "..." Chen Ruixi: "..." After picking up the dishes, Pei Zhanyang put the chopsticks back into Chen Ruixi's hands, and stood up with the empty plate: "Let's go. "

Zhang Yuanyao reacted for a while before realizing that the words were directed at himself.

"Oh oh oh!" Zhang Yuanyao also stood up quickly. He looked down at the bewildered Chen Ruixi and said goodbye to him, "Let's go first! See you next time!"

After the two left, Chen Ruixi looked at the surprised eyes around him, and then at his full plate, feeling that he had returned to the state where he was regarded as a different kind of crowd two days ago.

Zhang Yuanyao walked out of the noisy cafeteria, and finally came to his senses: "Brother Pei, no wonder you reminded me to order less food, so we didn't go to eat, but to give him extra meals!"

"Who is he?" Zhang Yuanyao turned his head reluctantly as he walked, "Brother Pei, is he your relative? Your younger brother? But I have never heard that you have a younger brother named Chen."

Pei Zhanyang yawned lazily, and said to Zhang Yuanyao, "Let's go, go eat casserole."

"Ah——" Zhang Yuanyao thought of Chen Ruixi who was eating alone in the cafeteria, and couldn't understand, "Then why didn't you let my brother eat with us? You see, he eats alone, let him eat with us."

"Isn't he eating?"

"He obviously didn't eat a few mouthfuls!"

Pei Zhanyang suddenly felt that Zhang Yuanyao was noisy, so he looked at him loosely and told him to shut up.

Of course he understood what Zhang Yuanyao wanted to express, but with his current relationship with Chen Ruixi, if he went to eat with them, he might be choked to death by Pei Zhanyang without even taking a bite.

in the afternoon

The bell for the end of the fourth self-study get out of class rang on time. Chen Ruixi looked at the homework left on the blackboard, and copied all the homework on post-it notes as usual.

Zheng Yaozhe did not know where he heard about the canteen at noon. He asked several times, but Chen Ruixi was very tight-lipped and would just say he didn't know.

"You said you didn't know last time! You also said you didn't know this time! Then what do you know?!"

What does Chen Ruixi know?He really doesn't know anything.

The students in the class were discussing where to go on weekends. Chen Ruixi looked at the homework that couldn't be copied on a post-it note, and couldn't figure out why they still had time to go out to play.

"Chen Ruixi—someone is looking for—" The same scene, the same call, and the same messenger.Everyone's eyes were instantly attracted, Chen Ruixi turned his head, and almost threw the pen in his hand when he saw Pei Zhanyang outside the window.

"He's here again! Why is he here again!" Zheng Yaozhe suddenly yelled, "You still say you don't know him!"

Chen Ruixi was so embarrassed that he wanted to cover his mouth to keep him from being so loud.The people sitting around him all gathered together, talking a lot—"Chen Ruixi, did you and Pei Zhanyang be in the same class last semester?"

Chen Ruixi has answered this question many times: "No..." "Then tell me, how did you know each other?"

Chen Ruixi and Pei Zhanyang met on the mountain behind the school, but the "mountain behind the school" was originally a forbidden place.If his words spread to the teacher's ears, not only will he be unlucky, but Pei Zhanyang will also be unlucky with him.

Besides, Chen Ruixi didn't want to share these things with them.

"I'm going out first..." He put down his pen and hurried out of the classroom.

Because it was school time, there were many people coming and going in the corridor. When Chen Ruixi came out, he found that Zhang Yuanyao was there.

"Hi——" Zhang Yuanyao greeted him with his schoolbag on his back, "We meet again!"

He carried a schoolbag on his shoulder and held another in his hand.The schoolbag was gray, with black and white intertwined on it, and the whole schoolbag was painted with graffiti.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell who this schoolbag is at a glance. Chen Ruixi has never seen this schoolbag before, thinking that maybe Pei Zhanyang just bought it.

Pei Zhanyang looked at him with a cold face: "Is get out of class over?"

Chen Ruixi nodded: "Yes."

"Go to have dinner together?" Pei Zhanyang said surprisingly, which shocked both Chen Ruixi and Zhang Yuanyao.

Zhang Yuanyao's eyes widened, Pei Zhanyang obviously didn't want him to eat with them at noon.How long had it been before he changed his mind? !

Chen Ruixi was even more surprised. He couldn't figure out what Pei Zhanyang was thinking, and he couldn't resist his repeated close behaviors.Seeing that his eyes were full of panic, Pei Zhanyang said indifferently: "It's okay, it's fine if it's inconvenient for you."

"No!" Chen Ruixi immediately refuted him, "I... just wait for me, I'll pack my schoolbag and come out right away!"

After Chen Ruixi finished speaking, he ran into the classroom in a panic. Zhang Yuanyao looked at his back, and this time he must get something out of Pei Zhanyang's mouth.

"Brother Pei, don't you still want him to have dinner with us at noon?"

Pei Zhanyang stood casually at the stairs with his hands in his pockets: "When did I say that?"

Zhang Yuanyao opened his mouth, suddenly unable to refute him, because Pei Zhanyang really never said such a thing.

"Zijun and the others are here at night, what should I say if I ask my younger brother?"

Pei Zhanyang raised his eyebrows and asked him, "What did you say?"

"Ask who he is!" Zhang Yuanyao suddenly felt that Pei Zhanyang was good at torturing people, "I'm neither a classmate nor a relative, and you didn't say what the relationship between the two of you is. My brother looks so shy, and they will definitely grab him at night. He won't let go!"

Zhang Yuanyao said a lot, but Pei Zhanyang felt that his worries were superfluous.He asked him impatiently: "I am here, who will hold him?"

Zhang Yuanyao: "..."

While the two were chatting, Chen Ruixi had packed her schoolbag and came out of the classroom.He was zipping his schoolbag while walking, Pei Zhanyang saw him in a hurry, and reminded: "Don't worry, we're not in a hurry."

When Chen Ruixi went in to tidy up, he stuffed all the test papers on the desk into his schoolbag. Now the corners of these test papers got stuck on the zipper of the schoolbag.Zhang Yuanyao stared at Chen Ruixi's movements dumbfounded, and seemed to hear the sound of the test paper being torn.

He subconsciously looked up to see the expression on Pei Zhanyang's face, but his back was turned to him, and he could only see his distinct side face from his angle.

The three walked out of the classroom together, and Chen Ruixi stepped on their footsteps and followed behind them.He pinched the shoulder strap of his schoolbag nervously, thoughts racing through his mind.

There are many parents' cars parked at the school gate, and there are also many people.It is rare that there is no rain today, and the orange sunset drags people's shadows very long.

Pei Zhanyang stopped abruptly, and Chen Ruixi was so absorbed in his thoughts that he bumped into him.

"Hmm—" Chen Ruixi frowned, and her nose instantly became sore.

Pei Zhanyang turned to look at him, and saw that his nose and face were all wrinkled.Zhang Yuanyao stood aside, laughing uncontrollably.

Before they said anything, Chen Ruixi spoke first.He waved his hands and blinked his eyes desperately: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt at all..." Zhang Yuanyao laughed even louder: "If it hurts, it hurts, why are you trying to be brave? We feel that it hurts just by looking at your expression." of."

Pei Zhanyang suddenly called out "Zhang Yuanyao" and told him that he had left his water glass in the classroom.

"Help me get it."

The smile on Zhang Yuanyao's face froze on his face, he responded, and re-entered the school gate in despair.

Chen Ruixi was still rubbing his nose when Pei Zhanyang called his name.

"Chen Ruixi."

"Ok?"

The sunset glow reflected Pei Zhanyang's face, and the warm yellow color softened his facial expressions a lot.He lowered his head and spoke casually, but his dark eyes were fixed on his face.

"Play with me later."
