My deskmate is always catching me [Rebirth]

The gift Lu Xiao prepared was a watch engraved with his name.

‌‌ He didn’t take it with him, and he originally planned to give it to him after he got out.

Before he could speak, Jiang  interrupted: "Brother Xiao's gift is right in front, look! The Ferris wheel!"

Hearing this, Ye Cheng looked up and saw a tall Ferris wheel not far away.

The ticket gate, which usually has long queues, was now empty, with not a single person in sight.

If you look carefully, you will find that there seems to be a looming black shadow in every small room.

Jiang ‌ pushed him two steps behind him and said happily: "Come over and have a look."

He didn't notice Lu Xiao's expression change.

Ye Cheng walked over as instructed, and suddenly a hand grabbed the back of Jiang's neck. Lu Xiao said harshly behind him: "Did you ask someone to put flowers in the Ferris wheel?"

"Yes, this is a confined space. Don't you think it's very romantic?" Jiang turned around innocently.

Lu Xiao said frantically: "I'm afraid of heights."

Jiang ‌: "...ah, damn, you didn't tell me earlier."

"When the hell have I ever played with a jumping machine? Is this the confined space you're talking about?"

Ye Cheng walked under the Ferris wheel that was rotating at an extremely slow speed and finally saw clearly what was inside.

The small room just past was covered with a layer of baby's breath. The small room in front of him was filled with platycodons, and the next one was filled with tulips.

In the middle of winter, I don’t know how much it cost to deliver these different types of bouquets here.

He looked at the flowers quietly for a long time without saying a word.

It took so long that Lu Xiao had overcome his physical barriers and walked over slowly.

Jiang Yirong showed a sweet smile and said: "Don't you feel better looking at them? Choose a room quickly."

Ye Cheng smiled and turned to look at Lu Xiao.

He pointed to the wisteria room that was about to come over and said, "This is ready. Do you want one?"

"One ‌ one ‌, of course one ‌." Jiang ‌ patted Lu Xiao from behind.

Lu Xiao just nodded bravely.

The wisteria float passed in front of them slowly. Ye Cheng bent down and walked in. After sitting down, he waved to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao was still hesitant at first, but after seeing his actions, she gritted her teeth and followed.

The staff stepped forward and closed the door, and the Ferris wheel rose up little by little.

There were only two of them on the entire Ferris wheel.

Click, click, click, as the gears rotate, there is a slight friction sound between the seats.

Looking through the glass, you can overlook the entire playground.

In the distant horizon, flaming clouds swept across the curtain-like sky.

Inside the Ferris wheel, wisteria flowers gracefully wrap around the seats and armrests, very similar to the windows in Ye Cheng's room.

As the height gradually increased, Lu Xiao's sitting posture became more and more awkward.

He gripped the armrest tightly, looked around, and even pinched off a few wisteria flowers unconsciously.

Although his fear of heights is not serious, he is still unavoidably nervous for the height of the Ferris wheel.

Ye Cheng kept watching him until he was about to reach the top, then suddenly said: "Are you afraid?"

Lu Xiao didn't expect that she would be exposed, and her eyes averted, "It's okay, nothing special..."

Before he finished speaking, Ye Cheng handed his hand to him and said softly: "If you are afraid, just hold my hand."

In an instant, Lu Xiao forgot what he was going to say.

She stared blankly at his palm for a few seconds, then hesitantly put her hand on it.

Ye Cheng's palm was warm and soft, soothing him from the coldness caused by the height.

The fingers of the two people intertwined and gradually clasped each other, and the skin that touched each other was heating up like the climbing speed of the Ferris wheel.

Lu Xiao's beating calmed down, but it was not completely calm.

There was a faint pulse coming from the clenched fingers. He didn't know where he had seen it before, saying that he could feel a person's beating on his fingertips.

In a daze, he suddenly discovered that Ye Cheng seemed to be gentle and unexpectedly gentle from just now.

‌ He actually wanted to use the word gentle to describe Ye Cheng.

There was still a calm expression on Mingming's face, as if no big deal had anything to do with him, but it made Lu Xiao feel soft.

He also always obeyed Lu Xiao and agreed to almost all of his requests.

Lu Xiao cleared her throat and said frankly, "I'm a little afraid of heights."

"Well, many people are afraid of heights. Don't look down." Ye Cheng looked at him and said.

Of course he knew that Lu Xiao was afraid of heights, and he also knew that he only forgot about his fear of heights when he was by his side.

When they were not familiar with each other, they once took a ride on a transparent sightseeing elevator. Lu Xiao originally refused to do so and refused to explain the reason.

After a while, Ye Cheng realized that he was afraid of heights, and he was embarrassed to admit it.

‌Later, Lu Xiao no longer resisted the sightseeing elevator as long as he was by his side - she just needed to hold his hand.

Lu Xiao had no choice but to look into his eyes and glance at the soles of his feet from time to time.

Ye Cheng looked at him and felt a little embarrassed. He held his hand motionless, as if he was afraid that if he moved it, Ye Cheng would take it away.

Ye Cheng watched him slowly relax, feeling numb inside due to the fragrance of wisteria flowers.

This idiot is still the same as before, oh no, exactly the same as the future.

As long as you hold his hand, you won't be afraid of any height.

Lu Xiao felt a little shy when she was stared at, and looked intently at the petals on the soles of her feet.

Finally, when the Ferris wheel returned to its starting point, Ye Cheng said: "I like this gift very much, thank you, Lu Xiao."

Lu Xiao's face heated up slightly, she blinked her eyes and tried to look at him and said, "As long as you like it."

After they came down, Jiang ‌ ran over with a wicked smile, holding the fairy wand and saying: "Let's set off the fireworks!"

Lu Xiao gave two to Ye Cheng, who waved his hand and said with a smile: "You guys are having fun."

Jiang Yirong stood beside him with her skirt burned.

"How's it going? Wasn't it very romantic just now?" Jiang  lowered his voice.

"Romantic shit, I'm so embarrassed." Lu Xiao gave him a shove, "I'll settle the score with you later."

Lu Xiao took a fairy stick and teased Ye Qiaoqiao, holding it up so that Lao Gao wouldn't let her reach it. Ye Qiaoqiao was so angry that she jumped up and down on the spot.

"They are so stupid." Jiang Yirong's hair was blown by the wind and was a mess, but she still couldn't stop smiling.

Ye Cheng agreed very much: "It's true that people of the same age don't violate the rules."

Jiang Yirong looked at them for a while, then turned to look at Ye Cheng and said, "You don't seem to be very open today. You haven't spoken much since you came out of the haunted house. What's going on?"

Ye Cheng shook his head and looked at the huge Ferris wheel in front of him: "I'm quite happy."

"I'm happy to be able to catch a gust of wind with him and ride on the same Ferris wheel." His voice was slightly deeper.

However, this was already the luckiest thing he had ever done.

Jiang Yirong said blankly: "What?"

Ye Cheng turned to ask her: "Do you like Jiang?"

His sudden inquiry made Jiang Yirong a little embarrassed, but she still replied: "I quite like it."

"Then, do you like him now, or will you like him ten years from now?"

Jiang Yirong was asked this question. She looked at Jiang Yirong and thought for a while, then said: "If we are still together ten years later, then of course we both like him."

"Wouldn't he still be the same person after ten years?" She looked at Ye Cheng and said matter-of-factly.

"‌Ah, that's right."

The corners of Ye Cheng's lips curled up, and the fairy wand not far away burst out with a subtle but bright light.

He once felt that one day he would leave here, and he might have a dream and return to the future.

Helping Lu Xiao learn is his mission and the meaning of his existence here.

More and more emergencies made him realize that maybe this was not a dream that could be left at will.

Ye Gaoyang is reaping the consequences step by step. The truth about Ye Qiaoqiao's life experience is coming to light, and Qu Tian may never be able to get that inheritance again.

And he also began to have many things that he had never had in his previous life, including Ye Gaoyang's guilt, the letter from his mother, and a different feeling for Lu Xiao.

All the unexpected things reminded him that this new life was not a brief moment like the fairy wand, and every regret he had had was repaired.

Among these many regrets, Lu Xiao is also included.

In his previous life, he couldn't completely give himself to Lu Xiao, so he always used some means to keep him by his side. There was always a lot he wanted to say but couldn't say.

The world of adults is always different from that of children. He is afraid that the other person will not cherish him, and he is even more afraid that both parties will be hurt.

They met in a nightclub, got into bed because of a conflict, and went from being disgusted with each other to being in love with each other.

In fact, just like Lu Xiaoli's potential worries and losses, he also has an extreme sense of uncertainty.

Even when socializing, a certain female boss glanced at Lu Xiao, and he felt uncomfortable.

‌‌ He has never told Lu Xiao, as if that would be uncool.

However, seventeen-year-old Lu Xiao never had any reservations about him.

He doesn't care whether he's cool or not, he only cares whether he can drive or not. Even if he's afraid of heights, he still wants to ride the Ferris wheel with him.

At that moment, he made a huge gamble of his life in a place where no one knew about it.

"I hope Lu Xiao will always be Lu Xiao."

——This is Ye Cheng’s eighteenth birthday wish.

I hope that seventeen-year-old Lu Xiao can slowly grow up and become the twenty-seven-year-old him.

After coming out of Happy Valley, Jiang Yirong was sent home first.

Ye Cheng took Ye Qiaoqiao to the hospital, and then walked back with Lu Xiao.

On the way, Ye Cheng said to him: "Why don't you go back tonight and stay here for one night."

Lu Xiao thought about it very much, but she also said: "Sister-in-law Wang went back to her hometown today. When I go back, I can't leave my mother alone."

Ye Cheng said: "You should spend more time with Auntie."

"My dad will be back in the spring. I hope they can have a good chat," Lu Xiao said.

Ye Cheng paused: "Is your dad going back to China?"

Isn't it the beginning of spring? It's the second semester of high school, which coincides with the time when Lu Xiao drops out of school.

"He said he would come back to take care of some things." Lu Xiao said.

Ye Cheng nodded with complicated eyes.

After arriving at his house, Lu Xiao waved his hand and said, "Come on, I'm leaving."

Ye Cheng thought for a moment and said to him: "Wait for me here for a minute."

With that said, he turned around and ran home.

Seeing that he was back, Gao Qiulan hurriedly greeted him: "Xiao Cheng, I made longevity noodles for you."

"Thank you, grandma, I'll wait and eat." Ye Cheng hurriedly left the room.

He took off his nameplate from his school uniform and ran out again.

The sky is getting dark outside, and the street lights on the roadside are turning on one after another.

Lu Xiao stood under the street lamp, wearing a black woolen coat, and his shadow appeared longer and slender.

Ye Cheng ran in a hurry.

After coming out of it, I stood in front of him panting.

"What's wrong?" Lu Xiao asked aloud.

Ye Cheng didn't answer him, but raised his hands and pinned something on his coat.

"Give it to you." He raised his face and smiled at Lu Xiao.

The tip of his nose was red with cold, and his light brown eyes reflected the light of the street lamp and filled the entire starry sky.
