Contention

Lu Yuexi let Ye Huai hang out for a whole night, and when Zou Feiniao got up the next day, on the way to send her to the car with an umbrella, she took the phone and slowly replied the message, the yogurt box in her hand rattling.

After standing at the door of the car and looking down at the phone for a while, she opened the door and glanced at Zou Feiniao beside her:

"Do you want to play with me?"

The other party shook his head with no expression on his face.

Lu Yuexi patted her head, got in the car and left.After reversing and turning for a distance, she looked back.

The girl's slender figure remained motionless in the rain, like a lonely crane.She was looking at the direction the car was leaving with warm eyes.

Lu Yuexi was slightly moved.She has always felt that locust leaves are like mountains, carrying wild and secluded colors, desolate and far away.

Zou Feiniao is more like water, ethereal and transparent, bland and boring on the surface, but warm and soft inside.

How to say is also a child.

She sighed, turned on the car radio, and hummed softly.

The place to meet Ye Huai was at the noodle shop down the mountain behind the school they used to go to in high school.Lu Yuexi was very glad that it hadn't closed the shop, but the proprietress who cooked the noodles was a bit older.

She drove to pick her up in person that day, but she didn't want to appear too attentive, so she just waited downstairs.

Ye Huai didn't make her wait too long, but within 5 minutes, she went downstairs.As soon as he saw her, his beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, and said impatiently:

"Let's go."

Lu Yuexi didn't care about her attitude, seeing her go to open the door of the back seat, he smiled:

"I've become a driver, haven't I?"

Ye Huai ignored the meaning behind her words and sat in the back seat.

If Wu Rurong came over to see you, he would definitely be ridiculed, hey, this person doesn't want to sit with you, do you see how annoying you are?

But to care about these, she would have been pissed off.So what if you dislike her?Now that Ye Huai has heard a few words from her, why don't she obediently come over to eat with her?

Lu Yuexi sneered secretly, and the thoughts in his mind were a little dark for a while.But she didn't say anything, and started the car directly.

Near the No. [-] Middle School is also a snack street with mixed fish and dragons. The shops on the street are uneven, and the vendors set up their stalls in disorder.In recent years, the management has become stricter, and the stalls selling egg pancakes and fried skewers have disappeared, but the remaining shops are still messy and old.

Seeing that the destination is here, Ye Huai's expression changed as expected, a little unexpectedly:

"What are you doing here?"

"What? I can change places now if I want to eat abalone and lobster."

Ye Huai pursed her lips: "No, it's up to you."

The two got out of the car, and there was No. [-] Middle School not far away. There are still students sneaking out to buy things, laughing and laughing in the street in school uniforms.

Lu Yuexi used to do this a lot before, and the guard with missing teeth and ears was sleeping most of the time, like a student sneaking out to play or something, he usually pretended not to see it.

Lu Yuexi looked at this scene, feeling a little nostalgic:

"Have you been to No. [-] Middle School?"

No sooner had she finished asking than she realized she had asked a stupid question.For Ye Huai, this place can be regarded as a nightmare of adolescence, who would come back to miss the nightmare and find fault for himself?

She consciously kept her mouth shut, but Ye Huai didn't show any expression, and said calmly, "I've seen it with He Ying, and the biology teacher treated her very well."

Lu Yuexi immediately lost interest and walked straight to the noodle shop.

When they went there, it was not lunch time, and there were few people in the store, but it was just that the neighborhood was being renovated and it was very noisy.The much older proprietress also couldn't recognize Lu Yuexi and Ye Huai, she picked her teeth and came over and asked:

"What do you want to do next?"

Lu Yuexi said casually: "Two servings of pork dirty noodles, two servings of pot stickers, and two bottles of herbal tea."

"Okay." The proprietress picked her teeth and went to the kitchen again.

Seeing her leave, Lu Yuexi smiled at Ye Huai who was in a daze in front of him: "This store hasn't changed much, but it seems to have been renovated, and it feels like it has been renovated a lot."

"..."

"At that time, I was very hungry in the afternoon, so you and I sneaked out to eat. I don't know if the taste will change, but I always think the noodles in this store are the best."

Ye Huai lowered his eyes indifferently, and let out a "hmm".

Lu Yuexi wanted to say something else, so she raised her head and asked:

"How about He Ying?"

Lu Yuexi stopped laughing, and fiddled with the chopstick box next to him without interest: "Can you stop spoiling my interest about a phone call?"

"I'm sorry, but that's what I came here for." Ye Huai's face was businesslike, as if he was doing an equivalent exchange of goods, without any extra expression, "He Ying is waiting for me, I hope you can understand."

"..." Today's good mood is completely scrapped.

Lu Yuexi sneered and leaned back, not pretending to be a good person, she was afraid that she would get choked with Ye Huai again, so she simply took out a cigarette from her trouser pocket to stuff her mouth.

She doesn't care if Ye Huai's reaction is indifferent, or even indifferent, but she hates hearing the word "He Ying" from Ye Huai's mouth all the time.

It was the same at that time, no matter what she did, how she flattered her, how courteous she was, Ye Huai was still full of "He Ying", nothing had to do with her, Lu Yuexi.

There are also times when she gets mad, and one of the most outrageous things she did was to report He Ying to the principal, saying that she was engaging in homosexual seduction/seduction of classmates, and people fired her.

Originally, such a thing would not lead to expulsion, especially since He Ying is still a good seed.

But at that time, Lu Yuexi held her breath and went directly to her father, saying that she had been bullied by He Ying, all kinds of reasons.

Lu Heng believed it was true, so he asked a few friends from the Education Bureau to invite the principal out for a few meals, and then He Ying was secretly punished to drop out of school.

In the end, however, the penalty was taken back.

That day the weather was about the same as now, Ye Huai sat opposite her, ordered two bowls of noodles for her, and said to her:

"I plan to drop out of school with He Ying."

He Ying was still not fired, but that meal was the last meal they had together for ten years.

She can't remember how it felt, uncomfortable and angry?hysteria?Perhaps more powerlessness.

She organized one farce after another, but she was always the only one in it.

It's quick on the face.The price of pig dirty noodles has increased by ten yuan, but the serving size has not changed.The white pig intestines are mixed with pig blood, fungus and green vegetables, wrapped in steaming noodle soup and served.

Lu Yuexi pinched the cigarette before the proprietress yelled, but her expression was still vague.

Ye Huai felt much more at ease, and lowered his head to eat the noodles.

Lu Yuexi stared at her for a long time, then slowly moved the pot stickers that were just served to her, and said:

"Of course I will do what I promise you."

"...However, how long He Ying can go on a business trip depends on how happy I am today."

Ye Huai looked up, she tilted her head, and added with a smile:

"I am very unhappy."

Lu Yuexi was very unhappy.

So He Ying's business trip is only two days, and the place is in a high school in Hangzhou, for academic exchanges.

And because of the short notice from the school, the time is very tight. I will leave this morning and return tomorrow afternoon.

Even so, He Ying still had a moment of freedom, and Ye Huai also secretly bought a plane ticket to Hangzhou.

Lu Yuexi didn't want to know whether the two were racing against time to make each other, she just found it a bit boring.

During the day, she sat in the office inevitably in a daze, watching the cigarette butts burnt out in the glass tank, and her whole body was hidden in the smoldering smoke, her eyes were empty and boring.

She always felt that she was caught in an endless loop now.Constantly getting news about Ye Huai, meeting her excitedly hoping to gain favor, and then being hit, the two quarreled, and then she often fell into a long period of disappointment and exhaustion in the midst of busy work, which was boring.

Since returning to China, she seems to have done a lot, but it seems that she has done nothing.
