I Want to be Alone, Beautifully

"Don't make trouble."

Xu Jiao's relationship with Su Xi is getting better, but she doesn't like this behavior, even if the other party is just a laugh of closeness.

Su Xi heard her seriousness from Xu Jiao’s warning voice, picked up her chopsticks and pulled the hot rice in the bowl, and muttered in a low voice: “If you don’t kiss, why don’t you kiss? Why are you so fierce? Persuaded."

This is followed by a coquettish and complaining sentence, but it only makes people feel cute when it comes out of her mouth.

Su Xi's popularity in school is not low. Except for some nerds who are addicted to studying, most boys like her cheerful, righteous and enthusiastic character. She is easy to dress up and goes to school with a touch of makeup every day.

Except for the Monday when the director conducts a grooming check, she also has some jewelry on her body at other times, such as exquisite necklaces, beautiful bracelets, and even her hairstyle, which is fashionable and cute.

There are a few in the sports specialty students who chase her very violently, and ask her to go out to play when they have time.

Xu Jiao heard her voice with a half smile in her eyes, but she shook her head and gently emphasized to her: "Xiao Xi, it's not that you haven't been in a relationship before, so you should know that you can't kiss other people's lips casually. "

At this moment, Aunt Su went to the guest room to perform sanitation again, and Shen Yelan walked to the dining table again, sat down silently, and when she picked up the chopsticks, her wrist turned to her side, not wanting to be seen deep in her palm. Several small crescents that were pinched deeply.

She quietly listened to Xu Jiao's education of Su Xi, pinching the meat on the tail of the fish with her chopsticks, and then lightly glancing in Su Xi's direction from the side of the light, seeing her cupping her face and opening her lips:

"But we are all girls, what does it matter? And you didn't object to it before."

Xu Jiao said indifferently: "It used to be before, now is now."

Su Xi let out a "hum" and suddenly directed the flames of war in Shen Yelan's direction. When she met Shen Yelan's inadvertent glance, she put down her chopsticks, put her hands around her chest, and said in an arrogant tone:

"I see! You have another dog, and I am no longer the only cutie in your heart! Say, do you like this surname Shen?"

Shen Yelan didn't expect that she was suddenly involved in the topic, and went to see Xu Jiao in a panic.

Even the meat that was finally caught on the chopsticks fell back onto the plate, and the snow-white fish was submerged in the dark sauce in the blink of an eye.

Knowing that Xu Jiao was boring to herself, she just couldn't control her nervousness, and was annoyed by the throbbing heartbeat.

as predicted-

Xu Jiao replied to Su Xi without blinking, "What does it have to do with her? We are talking about you now, we can't do this next time."

Su Xi is reluctant and unforgiving: "Why! I want to kiss!"

Xu Jiao exhaled softly and put the chopsticks in her bowl, then put the chopsticks on the side of the bowl, turned her head, and said seriously: "Because I like girls, you can easily make me like this. Misunderstanding, understand?"

Su Xi was stunned.

Suddenly heard a soft sound of "Dang".

Both of them looked towards the place where the sound was made. Shen Yelan's chopsticks accidentally fell under the table. She squatted down to pick it up, hiding her expression under the table so that no one could see it.

She raised her hand to put the chopsticks in front of her, but did not dare to stand up, and pressed the back of her right hand against her cheek:

hot.

It's getting angry.

What did she hear just now? Xu Jiao likes girls?

Even if she knew that the other party didn't mean to herself, Shen Yelan inevitably felt joy at this moment, and a devilish whisper appeared in her heart: "Since she likes girls, why can't it be you?"

Before she listened to the gu-confusion any more, Su Xi had already grabbed the corner of the table and leaned over to look under the table: "Hey, what's your reaction? Dare to let me see you showing that kind of ignorant expression. I definitely want to beat you to death."

Even if I had some reaction just now, in Su Xi's worldview, no one would be allowed to show a strange look at Xu Jiao!

That’s right, although Su Xi used to think these guys who like the same **** were strangely perverted, but today once Xu Jiao is included in this group, she suddenly feels that the words "Ji Lao" and "Lala" in her mind have become It became more foreign.

This is the case with the well-known double standard.

Shen Yelan looked at her blankly, the blush on her face gradually dissipated, she sat back on the table seemingly understanding, got up to wash the chopsticks, and then sat back again.

But Xu Jiao, the person who threw down the heavy news, didn't respond much. Seeing Su Xi comprehending what she meant, she picked up her chopsticks and continued eating.

A meal is rare and quiet.

Only Xu Jiao was content.

When she put down the tableware and got up and walked towards the bedroom, Su Xi didn't know what to think of, and didn't care about the soup left in the bowl, and hurriedly chased it. The gossip sound echoed in the living room:

"Hey, what kind of girl does Jiaojiao like?"

"When did you discover that you like women? Did the grandson do a good thing last time that made you lose interest in men? I'll find someone to help you teach him!"

Until the two of them entered the room, Shen Yelan dared to look back and saw the empty living room, quietly lowering his eyes, showing a touch of loneliness.

What Su Xi asked...

She also really wants to know.

…

But Xu Jiao did not say.

In Su Xi’s twittering voice, Xu Jiao calmly dismantled a set of May 3 that had just arrived two days ago. With the strong ink scent of the new book, she took a pen and opened the first page and started to work on the question. .

Su Xi asked loudly for another five minutes, without any response, she couldn't help but lay down on Xu Jiao's chair back in despair, and whispered:

"It's so boring, you don't say anything."

Xu Jiao replied without raising her eyes: "If you are bored, go and do the questions. If you don't finish the set of questions I prepared for you tonight, you are not allowed to sleep. Don't think I will let you go just like before dinner."

Su Xi: "...!"

She turned around and ran out. Everyone had already arrived in the living room. Seeing Shen Yelan quietly cleaning up the dishes, she didn't know what she thought of, turned around and went back to grab the door frame, and asked with breath:

"Sister Jiaojiao! I'm your girlfriend, can you be more tolerant to me?" For example, not letting her do questions.

Shen Yelan pinched the rim of the oil-stained bowl and forgot to let go for a long time. Then, she silently raised her eyes to look at Su Xi's direction.

In the next instant, Xu Jiao's voice came from the room: "Zhepi, you have to do a set of more questions."

Su Xi: "..."

She rubbed quietly back to the small table in the living room, and began to sigh at the topic of bitterness and hatred, and did not notice Shen Yelan's gaze from beginning to end.

Only the person at the dining table looked at the messy tabletop and thought with some uncertainty:

Was it a wrong choice to live in Xu Jiao?

Especially now that Su Xi is here, always making those jokes with Xu Jiao from time to time, making her mood constantly ups and downs, always feeling like she is not far away from a heart attack.

The only good thing is...

Xu Jiao is more serious than she looks.

…

That night, Shen Yelan slept in the spacious guest room.

Before going to bed, she was extremely worried that she would have those absurd and unspeakable dreams again in this delicate and delicate home, but to her surprise, she slept until she woke up naturally, lying in the soft bedding. Reacted dazedly—

I didn't dream last night.

She sat up from the rare warm bed, and somehow she felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.

It seemed that he was ready to go to a magnificent appointment, but in the end, he just put on a coat and waited quietly in the alley of willow tips that month, only the cold wind accompanied it.

Shen Yelan raised her hand to cover her face, and sighed from his fingers.

I don't know if it is because of the thought that I can't see the light, or I just fell to the end and feel sorry for the missed night.

"early."

Shen Yelan changed into her school uniform, opened the door, and saw Xu Jiao who was eating breakfast.

Obviously he is the most domineering student in the entire Eighteenth Middle School, but the uniforms are neatly dressed. The buttons on the white school uniforms are all tied to the highest point, and the neckline is so flat that there are no extra traces.

At first glance, no one would doubt that in front of the slow eating movements and those quiet eyes, in fact, they were the best students in the Eighteenth Middle School.

Shen Yelan only glanced at it, then looked away restrainedly, and politely replied: "Good morning."

Aunt Su had already bought a day’s food at around five in the morning. At the moment, she was busy in the kitchen. According to the order Xu Jiao had given earlier, she was preparing raw meat for the dog. She laughed when she heard someone else got up. Road:

"Xiao Shen is also getting up. What I made today is a pan-fried sandwich. What do you want to add? Eggs, ham, bacon, pork floss, green vegetables... Come and see."

Shen Yelan subconsciously wanted to say something casual, but after looking at the things on Xu Jiao's plate, she betrayed her master's will halfway when she spoke, and became: "Just like...Xu Jiao's sister's will do."

She hesitated when she called Xu Jiao.

It seems a bit offensive to call him by name, but there is a strange ambiguity in Su Xi's calling "Jiaojiao Sister".

As a result, the compromise became what it is today.

Xu Jiao didn't feel anything. After all, according to the original owner's setting, she was one year older than her peers, so it was not a problem to be called sister by Shen Yelan.

"Okay, just wait a minute." Aunt Su said in the kitchen.

Shen Yelan pulled the chair away, and just sat down at the dining table, she saw Xu Jiao had finished eating, wiped her mouth and hands, Xu Jiao nodded to her and said "You eat slowly", and then she Got up and left.

Probably because Su Xi hadn't gotten up yet, there were only two bowls and chopsticks on the empty table, which made Shen Yelan deceive herself into an illusion:

It seems that there are only two people in this family, she and Xu Jiao.

When they get up in the morning, the first person they see is each other, and then they say good morning to each other and eat together at the same table...

She pulled the corner of her lower lip slightly.

In the quiet morning light, even dreams are done carefully.

…

Xu Jiao got up early, and went to school early. When Shen Yelan packed up and went out, Su Xi had just got up. The three of them lived under one roof, but they were all divided into three ways to go to school.

Shen Yelan is still accustomed to walking the path.

Although this is very dangerous, and it is easy to encounter some "social people" who love to block honest students like her, but her personality is like this, she likes to enjoy peace.

So every time she would be up to 120,000 points to meet her little needs.

It’s the first time for Shen Yelan to go to school from Xu Jiao’s home. The surrounding alleys and scenery are completely different from those seen before. She tasted a bit of freshness, but when she turned around, she actually went around. Arrived in front of a boxing gym.

The door of the boxing gym was closed, and she was not surprised.

In addition to breakfast shops, there are also some businesses that are open at night, not many shops will open at this time.

What Shen Yelan noticed was a man sitting cross-legged and wearing a sweater at the door. The man was all black, with a hood covering his head, making it difficult to see what he looked like. Only the material on the elbow was a bit strange. , As if getting wet by something.

A faint smell of rust penetrated into Shen Yelan's nose.

She didn't have much courage. The moment she saw this person, her instinct was reminding her not to come closer, this place is very dangerous.

Perhaps it was because she was treated harshly at those relatives' homes since she was a child, and then she was always bullied by her cousin Lu Pei, so Shen Yelan has a set of intuitions about danger.

She stopped, silently trying to step back.

at this time-

The man sitting at the gate of the boxing gym raised his head, and under his hood, a shallow strand of long hair fell.

This turned out to be a woman.

However, Shen Yelan's guard did not relax because of this. Even when the other party raised her head, she took a big step back and turned around to run.

The man under the hood gently curled the corners of his lips, then lowered his head, sitting there quietly, like a statue.

"It's a student..." She sighed softly.

Students are always curious, and it is not uncommon for them to come to such a place. Some of them are bold and some are small. The one who came just now should be of the less courageous type.

She was about to close her eyes and squint for a while, her consciousness still not relaxed, she suddenly raised her head and looked forward—

In front of.

Shen Yelan was caught by her gaze, and the sole of her shoes rubbed against the ground, making a loud noise on the quiet road.

"You..." A little surprise appeared in the eyes of the black hood.

Shen Yelan's voice trembled nervously, her eyes moved left and right, and after a while she whispered, "You...are you injured? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

She quickly added: "But I don't have money, I can't help you pay for your medical bills."

When the people sitting on the ground heard her, they were startled at first, and then laughed softly, as if they had heard some joke.

When the laughter stopped, Shen Yelan heard this person asking: "Didn't you just want to run? Why are you back now?"

Shen Yelan pursed her lips, "Don't forget it."

This is the first time in her life to be nosy.

In other words, this is the first time she has tried to do this. Before that, she had stood in the dark for too long and too long. She had long been accustomed to the fact that no one in the world would lend a helping hand to herself, and she never knew what was in the book. What is meant by "willing to help others" and "seeing uneven roads".

until…

Yesterday, she was favored by warmth.

Therefore, she also wanted to learn to become such a warm person.

"Are you a student? Go to school, don't come to such a place." The person under the black hood raised his head, revealing an overly pale face, while his eyes lingered on the school uniform that Shen Yelan wore for a long time. There was a subtle envy.

If Xu Jiao herself was here, she would definitely be able to recognize it at a glance. This is the bodyguard number one who will appear next to the actor in the future, and also the important female partner, Dongqing, who will prevent the actor and Shen Yelan from being together in the later stage.

Holly was trained as a knife and tool since she was a child. She was constantly bought and abandoned by new owners. When her life was dying, she was found by the actor's family, and after taking it away, she recovered from her injuries. She became the most loyal bodyguard around the hero.

She protects the hero's life and will, and even does not allow anyone who threatens the hero's family to exist.

now…

Shen Yelan's fate quietly changed, like a small butterfly flapping its wings, slowly brewing a storm.

…

"This is the first time I want to help people." Shen Yelan said sincerely.

Hearing her words, the black hooded man tilted his head and thought: "Do you have any purpose?"

Shen Yelan blinked slowly and realized that she seemed to be talking with a duck. She estimated the time, and she was going to be late for early reading.

Forget it, since this person doesn't want to help, she should go.

Thinking of this, she stopped talking, and turned around to leave.

The people in the same place saw her intentions and were a little surprised, but at the moment when Shen Yelan's figure was about to be swallowed by the alley, she still spoke slowly: "Help me get some anti-inflammatory drugs, gauze, and iodine bars. I will repay you."

Shen Yelan looked back at her, and walked towards the nearby drugstore.

…

It's six forty-five.

After Shen Yelan helped others, she hurried to the gate of the school, but saw the man on duty at the gate of the school from a distance. Today it was Lu Pei's turn.

Her breath changed, and as soon as she took a step inside, she saw Lu Pei who had been waiting for her curling her lips:

"Classmates, you didn't bring your school card. Five points will be deducted from Class 7."

Shen Yelan paused for a moment, raised her hand and took out her school card from her bag. However, Lu Pei did not withdraw the point deduction plan just made. He even took a pen and wrote it in the notebook, which clearly meant to punish her. .

If both of them were in class 1, it would be fine. At most, Lu Pei used her to rush to the class teacher and tactfully complain that Shen Yelan, a classmate, always did not cooperate with her work. At the same time, he talked to the class teacher. Demonstrate loyalty and confirm that he is a good student with a red heart to the class.

It's better now.

Shen Yelan was in class 7, and she had no reason to let it go.

Seeing her movements, Shen Yelan suddenly stepped towards her direction. Although there was still a shadow on Lu Pei's face, she insisted on speaking:

"I put it on, so there is no deduction."

Lu Pei suddenly raised her hand and pushed her, pushing her to the ground next to her, and looking down at her with her arms akimbo, "Oh? Xu Jiao supported you last time, so I pulled it up, Shen Yelan?"

"You didn't come home last night. Do you know what my mom is preparing for you at home today?"

Shen Yelan was holding her elbow on the ground just now, rubbing it painfully, and was about to stand up, she heard Lu Pei's words, her breathing was stagnant, and she seemed to remember that she was locked in the room again. The feeling of pumping from all directions.

At the time—

Suddenly a faint voice came from the direction of the teaching building:

"What Lingtang has prepared, I don't really want to guess."

"But do you want to guess, what am I going to do next?"

Lu Pei froze, and his neck turned awkwardly in the direction of the incoming person, like a machine joint that didn't work well.

In the end, she didn't wait for her to see Xu Jiao's appearance, she felt a huge force coming from her back waist, the next moment! She screamed uncontrollably, and fell to the ground next to her along the strength, falling much harder than Shen Yelan.

Next, the students who stood at the gate of the school and supervised their appearance were honored to witness the demeanor of their eighteenth lieutenant colonel with their own eyes!

Had it not been for the dean's stern stop in the direction of the second floor of the teaching building, Lu Pei might have to be beaten as a sandbag for five minutes.

"Xu Jiao! Stop it! You dare to beat-beat classmates at the school gate, you should come over now! I have to ask the principal to fire you today!"

Xu Jiao stopped her hands when she heard the sound of a screaming chicken.

However, she did not obey the order obediently. Instead, she dusted the ashes on her school uniform, turned around and walked in front of Shen Yelan, stretched out her hand to her who was already stunned, with a smile in her tone:

"Why do you like sitting on the ground so much?"

Shen Yelan raised her head and looked at her. Xu is that the weather today is too good. The face of the person leaning over to meet the sun is incredibly soft, like a **** transformed by a spring breeze, blowing away all the cold and darkness in her world. , Let the flowers bloom on the ice sheet.

She suddenly thought-

In fact, all the impressions you have always had are wrong, right?

She has never seen Xu Jiao really collect protection and nursing fees, nor has she used her status as a "school boss" to gain any convenience for herself. Even this rare practice is because Lu Pei bullied people first.

Why do you feel that such a person is bad? Why do you feel that you shouldn't like such a person?

Obviously...

Xu Jiao deserves all the good things in this world.

Shen Yelan hadn't noticed it herself, a small smile appeared on her lips.

Seeing the look on her face, Xu Jiao laughed unconsciously, and then she asked in her heart: "System, how much is your favorability now?"

In this wave, she even lost her blood.

It's -100.

The system hesitated for a while, and then, its voice sounded truthfully: "It has detected that the heroine's favorability for you has changed. The current value is...10...wait, it's still rising—it's ok! 90! The heroine treats you. The favorability is 90!"

Xu Jiao: "..."

Xu Jiao: "???"

Rao is as calm as her, and at this moment he inevitably changes his tone in his heart: "How much? Are you sure you didn't miss the ‘-’ sign?"

The system affirmed: "Yes, the heroine's favorability for you is 90, which is a positive number."

Xu Jiao's inner world was deadly silent.

Shen Yelan still didn't know what happened, she was about to raise her hand to hold Xu Jiao's palm, and stood up with her opponent's strength—

however.

The hand hadn't been covered, but the other party casually withdrew his hand.

Shen Yelan caught nothing.

She looked over blankly and saw Xu Jiao turning to face the direction of the teaching building.

The dean had chased her from the second floor and pointed at her and said angrily: "You immediately! Go to the principal's office! Openly bullying classmates at the school gate, affecting the school spirit, I must expel you today!"

Xu Jiao raised her hand to block her eyes to prevent the sun from falling into her own eyes. She glanced at the dean of education and then moved her gaze away.

She feels like she is playing a game of interest. Seeing that she is about to play her favorite ending, she finds that the whole game has collapsed.

It's disappointing.
