If the world had no daylight

For a whole week, Bai Tian didn't communicate with her deskmate again.

Although Bai Tian is a person who is good at protecting herself wisely, but most of the time, she is a bad-tempered and loose-willed person.

Since the other party has already torn apart the superficial "friendliness at the same table", there is no need for her to get close to pretend to be her grandson.

So Bai Tian started skipping classes again.

She didn't skip much, and it was the last self-study class every day.Li Laotu thought that he was also surprised by Bai Tian's peace for a whole month, but now seeing her revert to her old ways, she felt a calm state of mind of "as expected".

For Class A, the self-study class is actually the time for writing homework every day, because most people still have various cram schools to attend after school.They are really busy, and they have to study every minute and every second, otherwise they may not be able to catch up with the overall level of their classmates.

But for Bai Tian, ​​study has never occupied her whole life, even though she is still a student.

At 09:30 in the evening, the restaurant began to prepare for closing.

Bai Tian stood in front of the last table of guests holding the menu, patiently waiting for the woman in the red dress to order.

This guest had been sitting here for an hour, probably because no one was waiting, so he simply ate something before leaving.

The woman's fingers painted with red nail polish slid across the thick menu, hesitated for a long time, and then ordered a discounted single meal that was being promoted.

Bai Tian wrote it down, bowed down politely and said, "Okay, please wait a moment."

She walked around from the booth with the menu in her arms, and walked to the back kitchen through the main entrance of the restaurant.Most of the people are getting ready to finish work, so the restaurant is very quiet.

When the glass door was pushed open, the wind chime jingled. Bai Tian had long been used to the sound, turned around and said, "Welcome. But the restaurant is about to close, what do you need?"

"I have a date."

Some cold voices mixed with the cold wind outside the door made Bai Tian raise his head in surprise.

The familiar face flashed past in front of him, and he walked towards the only seat in the restaurant where people were sitting.

Bai Tian paused, and continued walking towards the back kitchen without saying anything.

After printing out the receipt and pasting it in front of the kitchen window, Bai Tian stood unobtrusively behind the tall potted plant, looking into the corner.

The girl in school uniform was sitting in front of the woman with her back facing her, so that no one could see her expression, and she couldn't hear any voices because she was too far away.Bai Tian looked away indifferently, not interested in continuing this kind of spying.

As time passed by, the smell of meat sauce from the pasta could be heard faintly. Bai Tian picked up the plate, put the drink on it carefully, and then walked towards that corner.

As they got closer, the conversation between the two became clearer.

The woman has a beautiful face, with a little makeup, she doesn't look dusty, but her temperament neutralizes her overly gorgeous facial features.

She looked at the girl, her eyes were a little red.

"When you settle down there, I'll pick you up."

The girl nodded without making a sound.

"Excuse me, here is your drink, freshly squeezed juice."

Bai Tian picked up the cup and put it down steadily, without further words, turned and left.

From the beginning to the end, she did not meet the girl's eyes.

The side face of the other party is not so clearly visible in the peripheral vision, but it is indeed a face that Bai Tian is familiar with, but the expression is very strange, she has never seen it on the other party's face.

Thinking that he might bump into the other person's privacy again, Bai Tian suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.It seemed that the more she didn't want to have any interaction with the other party, the more she kept getting involved.This is not a good sign.

Fortunately, the meal was over quickly.

The woman barely touched the food on the table, and concentrated on watching the girl in front of her eat slowly, with a soft smile on her face unconsciously.

But Bai Tian took a quick glance, saw the smile in his eyes, and felt a burst of inexplicable sadness.

The shop finally closed, Bai Tian changed into his school uniform, came out from the back door of the kitchen, and walked slowly towards the bus stop.

She will be able to get her salary in about a week. She made up her mind and decided to resign with the store manager a few days in advance.

Originally, Bai Tian only planned to work part-time for one month, so the money would be enough.But this period was the busiest time for the restaurant, and she was able to apply because of the soft heart of the store manager, otherwise, where would a girl who was only a freshman in high school find a serious part-time job.

So Bai Tian stayed for a while longer, until he finally recruited a new waiter these two days.

If only she had grown taller.

With a sigh in his heart, Bai Tian put the schoolbag in front of him and hugged him, and walked towards the street entrance.

Not far away came a group of noisy boys, wearing strange clothes and messy hair color, Bai Tian glanced at them and walked away calmly.

But it was already very late, and there was no one on the street, so she was particularly conspicuous as a girl in school uniform walking on the road.

Looking at the group of people blocking him, Bai Tian's heart sank slowly.

"Little sister, why don't you come home so late?" The lead man with green hair asked with a smile, his eyes swept Bai Tian's body from top to bottom.

The red hair next to him whistled suddenly: "Isn't this the school uniform of No. [-] Middle School? Top students."

"Is that right? I've grown up so much that I haven't worn the school uniform of No. [-] Middle School, little sister, why don't you take it off and let my brother wear it?"

A group of people laughed and surrounded Bai Tian, ​​blocking all her ways.

Cursing in his heart that "everything is not going well", Bai Tian grabbed the strap of his schoolbag tightly, thinking quickly about how to get out.

But the other party didn't give her more time to think. Someone impatiently reached out and grabbed her shoulder, and asked, "Why don't you talk? I'm just borrowing your school uniform from you. Don't be so stingy."

The man pulled the school uniform jacket on Bai Tian's body, trying to pull it off, but Bai Tian struggled to back away.

She reached into her schoolbag and fumbled for her mobile phone, but she put on a very panicked look on her face, which greatly lowered the vigilance of the other party.

Another person came forward to grab Bai Tian's clothes, she seized the opportunity, stepped on the other person's foot, pushed him away when he was screaming, bent down from the vacant space, and ran away.

The people behind quickly reacted and chased after him cursing.

While running forward quickly, Bai Tian took out the mobile phone and held it in his hand.

She ran as far as possible to a wide area, but the shops around her closed early, and she didn't see anyone after running for a long distance.After running wildly for so long, his physical strength was almost exhausted, Bai Tian vaguely caught a glimpse of a small shop not far away that was still open, so he ran over without thinking, and got in and hid without even seeing the name of the shop clearly.

Bai Tian finally heaved a sigh of relief when the sparse footsteps of a group of people whizzed past outside and slowly receded away.

Panting with sweat profusely, she stood up cautiously.

Only then did she realize that she seemed to be in a strange shop.

Bai Tian looked around the somewhat cramped environment, but saw no one, not even the boss.There were some strangely colored commodity boxes on the shelves on both sides. The lights in the store were too dim, so she couldn't see clearly, so she went over to pick up a box to have a look.

Three seconds later, Bai Tian put down the box with a flushed face, and wiped his hands vigorously on the school uniform.

She turned her head, and a huge, thick and long appliance on the bracket suddenly appeared in front of her. At the same time, the door at the innermost part of the store, which was covered by a thick curtain, suddenly opened, and a person walked down the stairs.

Bai Tian looked at each other in blank dismay.

Another footstep came from behind the door, and a hoarse male voice sounded from behind the other person: "What are you doing standing at the door?"

The man in a black sweater paused and replied, "It's nothing."

She stepped out and moved out of the way for the boy to come out.

Bai Tian was about to pretend she didn't see anything, and turned to leave, when the man in the black sweater stopped her: "Bai Tian."

The boy showed a strange expression, looked at the person in front of him, then at Bai Tian, ​​then suddenly made a look of understanding, and said, "Then I'll go first."

He came out and smiled at Bai Tian when he passed by her.

It's just that this smile makes Bai Tian feel inexplicable no matter how he looks at it.

The surrounding environment made Bai Tian extremely uncomfortable, she didn't want to continue chatting with the tablemate who appeared here at all, after all, they were unfamiliar and had nothing to say.

What's more, in such an embarrassing environment, Bai Tian couldn't even care about the other party's appearance which was completely different from the school, and just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

Ye Wan put his hands in the pockets of the sweater, walked over slowly, looked around Bai Tian's body, and then asked with a half-smile, "What do you buy here?"

Bai Tian was suddenly thankful that the lights in the store were dim, otherwise the temperature on her face would have been completely exposed.

"Wrong place."

She told the truth, but left out the details.

The other party's expression seemed noncommittal, she walked over, patted Bai Tian's shoulder, and quickly withdrew her hand.

"Let's go."

Bai Tian walked out of the shop almost impatiently, without looking back.You don't need to look at her to know what is written on the light sign at the door, the blame is that she is blind because she didn't choose the way.

The person behind closed the glass door, locked it, and followed behind Bai Tian.

The two walked back and forth like this for 10 minutes, Bai Tian finally got a little impatient, she stopped and turned her head to look over, and said in a bad tone, "What are you following me for?"

The man in the hoodie also stopped, took his hand out of his pocket, pointed to the bus stop not far behind Bai Tian, ​​and said casually, "I'm driving."

"..."

Bai Tian pursed his lips, stopped looking at the other party, and continued walking towards the station.

There was no one at the station at this point, Bai Tian took out his phone to check the time, and after confirming that he did not miss the last train, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, her tense nerves finally eased a little. Bai Tian squeezed her mobile phone, leaned against the billboard, and tightened the collar of her school uniform jacket.She just broke out in sweat, and was blown by the night wind for a long time. She became a little dizzy, and her body began to feel cold.

The person in the black sweater leaned aside, his long hair was hidden in the hat, from a distance, his thin body looked like a tall and thin boy.The two of them didn't talk to each other, and they didn't even make eye contact, as if they were strangers.

However, the quiet atmosphere was soon broken by loud noises.

Bai Tian heard the sound of the crowd coming behind him, turned his head to take a look vigilantly, and then quickly withdrew his gaze.

She pinched the phone and stood up straight, and began to look around for a place to hide.

Two seconds later, Bai Tian decisively put the schoolbag on the ground, took off his school uniform jacket, wrapped it up and stuffed it into the schoolbag, then tore off the hair tie from his hair, and let his hair fall loose.

Then she opened the cover of the phone, ready to press the three buttons at any time.

The noisy footsteps were getting closer and closer, Bai Tian held his breath, just when the group of people were about to walk over, the person standing beside suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Bai Tian's left hand, and turned his back to the group of people without looking back walk away.

Their footsteps were not flustered, but they were faster and did not attract their attention.

Bai Tian took a deep breath, and let the person beside him pull him to continue walking. He didn't let go until he was completely away from the station.

"Are you not driving?"

Bai Tian didn't look back, but asked the other person, wanting to calm down her abnormal heartbeat with words.

Ye Wan put her hands back into her pockets, slowed down and walked beside Bai Tian, ​​and replied casually, "Just take a taxi."

It's still far away from the next station, and I can't catch the last train even if I walk there.Bai Tian counted the change in his pocket, heartbroken, stopped to look at her, and waited for the other party to stop to meet his gaze, then pretended to be natural: "Since we are in the same direction, why don't we carpool."

The girl in the black sweater looked at her for a while, raised her eyebrows slightly, and showed a clear and straightforward smile.

"You beg me."
