Invade the World

  Chapter 301 Surprise in Boredom

For people at work and students, weekends are a good opportunity to sleep in and relax. They don’t feel sleepy at all, but they still lie under the covers and refuse to get up, occasionally staring at the ceiling blankly, and occasionally reaching out to touch the alarm clock. Struggle between "get up" and "cannot afford".

  As if lying in bed like this and doing nothing, you can wipe out all the hard work accumulated during the week.

  After all, for people who want to work and study seriously, even finding a place to spend time in a daze is a luxury.

  Lin Xingjie is like this.

  As a high school student, compared with her peers, her performance can be regarded as a type of hard work, but she herself thinks that she is not the kind of character who can work hard.

  The initial change was due to an agreement made after meeting Xu Xiangyang.

She values ​​her first friend very much and wants to listen to him. Compared with her mood, she cherishes the opportunity to establish contact with others. She is afraid that this relationship will disappear like a dream one day, so she will work hard. To seize the opportunity, hold firmly in your hands.

  In the past, I was always doing nothing and wasting my time. Unlike other students, the feeling of being supervised made Lin Xingjie very interesting.

  Later...Later, the relationship between the two gradually sublimated, and the interpersonal relationship around her was not as simple as in the past, but the feeling of studying hard at that time was still not bad:

  I want to keep up with the steps of the people around me, and I want to be admitted to the same university as my lover.

  Just look forward, that beautiful dream, the happy future of that left-handed boyfriend and right-handed bestie, seems to be waving at her at the end of three years in high school.

  As Xu Xiangyang said, learning is one of the very few activities in the world that can be reaped as long as you pay. Seeing the improvement of the ranking on the transcript every time, I feel very happy to climb up step by step.

  But now, her life has turned over again.

  The two of them broke up, and their companions are no longer companions, but rivals. Does this mean that everything becomes irrelevant?

  Furthermore, even if she is willing to fall from now on, she will not have to regret her future in the future. Relying on the identity of a "superpower", wherever you want to develop, there will be no time to go through the back door at that time.

  Thinking about it this way, Lin Xingjie can continue to study hard every day in school. It seems that there is only one left:

  That is "inertia".

  Life is inertial. A habit will not be easily destroyed. As long as people are still at a loss, they will unconsciously persevere.

  Of course, wanting to break it is also very simple. It only takes one unconstrained laziness, and it will completely "fallen" and never go back to the past.

  She began to hesitate whether to actively destroy her habit...

  If it has to be done, Lin Xingjie thought, first of all, start from being late in bed.

   But now that he has turned from a bad girl to a good student who has worked hard for him, if I give up the hard-earned identity for him, does it seem that I rely on him very much?

  Even my life choices have been revolving around my ex-boyfriend, whether it is submissive or rebellious, it is a kind of "care" that is hard to give up.

  The issue of self-esteem is really complicated.

  Lin Xingjie couldn’t get the answer that made her feel comfortable even after thinking about it.

   She sighed and wrapped her body in the quilt, looking like a chubby caterpillar.

  Autumn...has arrived.

  No need to go to the calendar to see the date or solar terms. In the Jiangnan area, the beginning of autumn is often a sudden rain.

Before this rain, there was still the sultry heat of summer after far away on the earth, sometimes even hotter than summer, commonly known as "autumn tiger"; and after this rain, the weather will suddenly become overcast and cold. Since then, the season has entered a far-reaching autumn.

  Like a big tiger that is arrogant and domineering and dominates the world’s climate. It was suddenly blown by the cold wind from Siberia and turned into a frosted eggplant.

  A few days ago, I had to turn on the fan all day long to dissipate heat, but now I am wearing a thick coat; I dare not push on the quilt when I sleep at night, otherwise I will easily catch a cold. The doors and windows that are usually used for ventilation are closed tightly.

  In the past few days, it has been rainy and rainy, so that there are still large areas of wet marks on the windows, and the air that I breathed is dripping with water.

It is rare that it rained today, and the sunlight falling on the curtains can still be seen, but the weather has already cooled down unknowingly. Evaporate clean.

  Lin Xingjie just lay down, lay down and lay down like this, and the whole morning passed away.

  In the middle, she still tried to support her body, put on a coat and went outside the room to finish washing.

  When she walked out of the bedroom, Lin Xingjie saw that the cohabitant was sitting in front of the window sill and reading seriously, with her back facing herself.

  She didn't want to care about his affairs, so she sneaked into the bathroom and then sneaked out, trying to prevent her footsteps from being heard.

   But even if you find it, you will treat it as if you didn’t hear it if you want to come to the other party? This is the tacit understanding reached between the two after a few days of the "cold war".

  After all, if he or she is really fine to find something to chat with the other party, the atmosphere will only become more embarrassing.

   Lin Xingjie did not wear clothes when she came out, exposed skin, such as the thighs and lower abdomen, so that the autumn breeze immediately hit the spirits.

  She Jie hugged her shoulders, ran all the way back to the room, jumped into the quilt again, and refused to get out again.

  Later, Xu Xiangyang knocked on her door and said that breakfast had been prepared, and that he was going out soon, so she could eat out quickly.

   Lin Xingjie sullenly responded, listening to the chilly wind slapped on the glass, she didn't mean to get out of bed at all.

  After hearing a dull sound of closing the door, no other sound came from the whole room.

  She suddenly felt very regretful. Of course wasting time for no reason is something worth regretting...

  But she still chose to hide in the bed and regret it.

   Until the afternoon, Lin Xingjie still felt that she was not energetic, and she didn't want to get up lazily.

   "Oh, I still have lunch."

  The reason why Lin Xingjie is reluctant to go to breakfast is a bit of a sense of anger. Because she really didn't want to sit at the same table and stare at the familiar face in a daze, unless it was to show her face to Sister Lian.

  But she didn’t expect the other party to walk so decisively, and now she wants to eat, the rice should be cold...

   "I said I was going out. Where is this guy going to play?"

  She sat up, hugged her pillow, and looked at the closed door not far away.

   "Isn't it going to see her again... Forget it, what you want to do now, it has nothing to do with me."

Lin Xingjie used to see her boyfriend go out alone, always upset, either because he was worried about his personal safety, or because of the relationship between him and Qingyue-such as whether the two were hiding her from dating and other issues. Feel worried.

  And now, she doesn't care anymore.

  What should happen has already happened. If one day, the worries in the heart become reality, the reality itself will become unworthy of worry.

  Speaking of it, when I was at school these few days, I could often see him and Qingyue staying together and chatting in secret, as if they were planning something in private.

  But what does it have to do with her? It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter all.

  After struggling for a while, Lin Xingjie finally got up from the bed.

   "Hey, I really can't count on men."

  She put on slippers, changed her pants and jacket one step at a time, and just walked out of the door, she ran into Xu Xiangyang who was walking towards the kitchen.

  "I'll compare it myself..."

   Lin Xingjie muttered to herself halfway through, and then broke.

   "What are you talking about here alone?"

  Back from the street, Xu Xiangyang, who was carrying a bag of food, looked at her a little amused.

  The girl with long hair flushed slightly, but she didn't mean to give in, she just glared at Xu Xiangyang, and violently pushed him away.

  "You, you get out of the way, I want to go to the toilet."

   Passed by Lin Xingjie, Xu Xiangyang found that the dishes on the table and the porridge that had no longer radiated heat had not changed from before he left. Obviously, none of the chopsticks had been moved.

   "This girl, she didn't eat a bite."

  He couldn't help but ask loudly:

  "Are you not feeling well?"

   "I am in good health."

   Lin Xingjie’s voice came from behind.

   "That's lazy, right?"

  Xu Xiangyang seemed to see through her mind, turned his head and looked at the girl standing at the door of the bathroom with scorching eyes.

  Lin Xingjie felt that the temperature of her cheeks was rising rapidly after being stared at for a while, and she couldn't help feeling that she was too weak.

  "It’s bad for your health to skip breakfast."

  The boy said seriously.

   "It will be cold in the future, if you really don't want to get up, do you want me to bring food in to feed you?"

   "...you are so annoying. I don't need it."

  ……

  Xu Xiangyang cooked a pot of white rice and quickly finished the Chinese food.

  On the table are cut braised pork and stir-fried vegetables bought from the street.

  The well-dressed long-haired girl sits at the table with her head stuffed and eats special food, flying chopsticks.

  Xu Xiangyang held his chin in his hand, looked at the girl who was devouring, smiled and reminded:

   "Eat slowly, no one will grab you. Also, remember not to fill your stomach. There is still a big meal waiting for you in the evening."

  The chopsticks in Lin Xingjie's hand stopped slightly, and she looked up at him with a confused expression.

   "...Sister Lian is coming back?"

   "No, not for this. I can only say that it will be richer than that."

   "What day is today?"

  The boy smiled very softly, but she became a little uneasy and started to think wildly.

  It is said that the death row prisoners in ancient times would eat a particularly good meal before going to punishment. This is called "beheading meal".

  Of course, things will certainly not be so exaggerated. But Lin Xingjie remembered it very clearly. On the day of the breakup, the two had a long-lost date. Xu Xiangyang rode a newly bought motorcycle to the beach, trying hard to make her happy.

  The result is to confess her relationship with Qingyue in the end and give her a cruel blow.

  There is such a painful lesson before, it is really impossible for the girl not to think too much.

  Could it be bad news to tell yourself, right?

  She feels that the days are already terrible. Could it be that the relationship between them can get worse?

  ……

   Looking at Lin Xingjie with a vigilant look, Xu Xiangyang was taken aback, realizing that she must have been wrong, and a wry smile appeared on her face.

  He thought that the actions of himself and the squad leader had been noticed during this period of time, but he didn't expect it to be ignored by the other party at all.

  "Don't you know yourself?"

   "Why should I know?"

   "...You, can't you even remember your birthday?"

  Xu Xiangyang felt helpless, and pointed to the calendar hanging on the wall.

He had also conceived whether he should not tell her the truth first, and then find an excuse when the time is up-such as a date or a spiritual phenomenon to lead her near the restaurant, and finally let the people who have been preparing for a long time jump suddenly Come out, make a crackle and say to celebrate the birthday song together...

  The "surprise" in the general sense was created in this way, and the squad leader had this plan from the beginning.

  But after discussing it, Xu Xiangyang realized that something was wrong. According to the current relationship between him and Xingjie, it is very likely that he will break down in the first step.

  Go out on a date together? After the breakup, the men and women mentioned this again as if they were playing a hooligan.

  What's more, he didn't want to make excuses or lie to her, whether it was intentional or unintentional, malicious or kind.

  "……"

   Lin Xingjie opened her eyes wide.

  The living room was very quiet, and the young people sitting at the table looked at each other.

   Gazing at those jet-black pupils that were watery like elk, Xu Xiangyang's heart moved slightly.

  In this situation, even he is uncertain whether the other party will agree to the invitation. If Xingjie refused, the situation would really become a joke just like Yang Wenjing said.

  It’s no wonder that the squad leader exhorted him, saying that he would drag Xingjie out of the house anyway.

  But after a period of careful thinking, he decided to implement his own approach.

  ...Say it out.

  He thought, all that was left was to increase the bargaining chips until the weight of one side of the balance in Xingjie's heart could overcome the cold barrier between the two.

   So he said:

   "I have invited many people to celebrate your birthday, and they happily agreed, including Yang Wenjing in our class..."

   "Okay, OK."

   Lin Xingjie shook her hand. Seeing her impatient expression, Xu Xiangyang felt cold at first, but then heard her ask:

   "When? Go now? Or at night?"

   Her voice was filled with excitement that could not be concealed.

  The long-haired girl specially dragged the chair over and raised her head with a smile to ask him.

  Looking at those twinkling eyes, Xu Xiangyang suddenly felt familiar and nostalgic. He realized that he hadn't been so close to her for a while.

  He stretched out his hand to take off the white rice sticking to the corner of Lin Xingjie’s lips, put it in his own mouth, and replied with a smile.

   "At night....Also, I have told you several times that I don’t want to change my eating problems. Be careful to lose face in front of the big guys."
