Unrequited Love

When it was time for dinner, Luo Zhi walked out of the dormitory and went straight to the third cafeteria. Although it was just the meal, there were not many people on weekends. She was depressed and had no appetite. She ordered a dish and slowly looked for a separate seat by the window with the dinner plate.

"Luo Zhi!"

Following the prestige, Belle is sitting opposite her boyfriend at the table by the window.

About an hour ago, Jiang Baili received a call when she returned to the dormitory bed with swollen eyes.

This description is relatively brief. In fact, the specific process is: the phone ringing ringing, Belle hangs up; the ringing ring ringing again, Belle hangs up again; the ringtone rings for the third time, and Belle simply keeps it ringing and ringing...

Then, the phone came in perseveringly.

Belle’s ringtone is set to a certain Korean electronic dance music, which is terribly ugly. Luo Zhi frowned from the desk and looked back. Belle was squinting at the phone screen, as if she was engaged in a fierce psychological struggle.

Luo Zhi decided to give her a step down.

"Either shut down or answer the phone, so annoying."

Belle bit her lip and picked up her mobile phone and went to the corridor to answer the call. After that, he didn't come back again, until now he appeared in the cafeteria.

Luo Zhi was not surprised at the speed at which the two men returned to good times. She raised her rice bowl to show her politeness, looked away, and continued to look for a seat.

Belle then waved her hand, as if she must let her sit next to them: "Please, come over and eat together."

The corner of her boyfriend's mouth was raised, and he didn't smile. He looked out the window and was noncommittal about Belle's words. Luo Zhi keenly smelled the atmosphere between the two, knowing that he should go to the rescue, so he nodded.

Belle’s boyfriend is Gobi, a very handsome boy with long slender eyes, a stiff nose, and two thin lips that are delicate but not feminine. In contrast, Belle's looks can only be considered improvised.

They are a pair of tops who once ranked third in the school's BBS hot posts anonymously. Luo Zhi avoided them from the day they registered.

Jiang Baili appeared in the dormitory with Gobi. The two threw their suitcases on the ground and leaned against the table drinking water, fans and fans. Luo Zhi was making the bed, knelt on the edge of the bed, twisted and greeted them, informed them of his name and place of origin, then turned around and continued to work. Belle has been chatting with the boys around her since she entered the house. Although not very proficient in acting like a baby and talking, they talk a lot. For example, although this dormitory is small, it is rare to live with only two people; mosquito nets are the most annoying, but the September autumn tigers in Beijing are still scary; there is only KFC and no McDonald’s near Ximen. How can this make people live; mineral water is still Nongfu Spring is better than Nestlé... Luo Zhi thought melancholy, that she should change her congenital ears, otherwise her eavesdropping nature might make her tired to death in this dormitory.

Suddenly Belle called out as if remembering something: "By the way, that Luo..."

"Luo Zhi." The male voice answered.

"Oh, isn't it, Luo Zhi, right? Luo Zhi, the two of us just bought a new mobile phone card together. Tell me your phone number."

Luo Zhi was busy grabbing a corner of the quilt and stuffing the quilt inside, without turning his head back, he said, "Sorry, I haven't opened a new account yet. Let me write down yours first. Wait a minute for me."

She took out her phone, Belle began to read her phone number, and she entered the phone one by one.

"Change her last two numbers from 35 to 36, which is my number. My name is Gobi."

Luo Zhi raised his head in surprise, and then took a serious look at the "beautiful" next to Belle. At this moment, he was leaning on the window sill, smiling meaningfully at himself.

What was more shocking than this was that Jiang Baili, who was on the side, made no secret of her cold face.

Luo Zhi nodded, turned around and found the corner again and continued to stuff.

In the next two weeks, Belle hardly spoke to Luo Zhi, and Luo Zhi completely responded to the opponent's strategy. During the period, I can often see them both in supermarkets and other places, and she didn't even say hello, pretending not to see. Or scribblely nod to Belle at the place where you have to look up at the narrow road, completely ignoring the existence of Gobi.

During this period of time, the basic way of getting along with Belle was established. Jiang Baili is not a person who bears grudges. When Gobi met a real "little vixen" during the vigorous student union admissions two weeks later, she had no hostility or guard against Luo Zhi, but naturally accepted Luo Zhi's dullness. Because of her personality, she won't accuse her of being arrogant like her previous high school classmates, or ask her if she is unhappy.

Luo Zhi thought about it later and thought this might be a blessing in disguise in the legend.

"You just have to eat so much?" Belle interrupted her in a daze, tapping the only bowl of chrysanthemum oatmeal and a plate of fried water spinach on Luo Zhi's tray with chopsticks.

"I'm not hungry," she said.

"Lose weight? Not right." Gobi raised his mouth, his voice prolonged, his tone a little teasing. Luo Zhi lowered his head and smiled politely, without explaining.

"If you really get fat, boys don’t have this attitude. I don’t know about you yet? In the preliminary contest of the campus singer contest the day before yesterday, you guys laughed at the players on stage one by one. Just your buddies, They look much shimmering than those other players, saying that others don't look in the mirror by themselves." Belle said disapprovingly, biting the head of her chopsticks.

"Oh, it sounds like you didn't participate at that time." Gobi smiled, laughing so much, but staring at Luo Zhi.

"I... just don't think it's good to dry your buddies."

"Actually you are afraid of being left by us."

"You're endless, right?" Belle was still holding the chopsticks in her mouth, her face flushed quickly, and she stared at Gobi slantingly. Seeing that the two were about to get up again, Luo Zhi froze for a moment, and began to seriously fulfill her responsibilities of sitting here: "Belle, you bought this? Is the spicy duck neck made in the cafeteria delicious? I heard it was opened nearby. A Zhou Hei Ya..."

Belle turned around and said, "There are only two yuan left. You can eat it. I'm going to buy a Coke. Would you like it?"

Before Luo Zhi spoke, she rushed out directly.

"This topic is so divergent." Gobi sneered.

Luo Zhi bowed his head and took a bite of the fattest inner curve of the duck neck, without smiling or talking.

"I heard you had a cold a while ago?"

She heard the word "also" specially emphasized by Gobi.

"Ok."

"Is it ok now?"

A lot of nonsense. She frowned slightly and raised her head to look at him.

"Actually, you are really a bastard." Her tone was as calm as describing the duck neck being too salty.

Before Gobi had time to react, he heard Belle shouting in the distance: "Come and pick me up. I can't hold it after three cups."

He did not move, Luo Zhi put down his chopsticks and took two glasses of Coke. Belle put the cup in her hand directly in front of the Gobi.

After that, Jiang Baili kept talking like she was afraid of being cold, and Luo Zhi followed her with random words. Gobi remained silent, staring at Luo Zhi who was drinking porridge.

Luo Zhi ate very quickly. They didn't let the two of them wait for too long. The three of them stood up to collect the plates, and Belle walked to the front and sent some away.

"I'm talking to you for the second time, right? Why don't we have a grudge against me?" Gobi squinted his eyes halfway, a little pretentious in his anger. Luo Zhiming looked up plainly, seeing his familiar smile and gesture.

However, she swallowed everything that came to her lips. Although it was only the second time to talk to him, she knew that people like Gobi liked girls to play with him and play with him arrogantly, so she was calm for a while.

"I haven't heard that Belle and you are best friends? You are protecting her." The other party was reluctant.

I did hear that you don’t know good or bad, Luo Zhi said silently in his heart, pushed the dinner plate onto the table, took out a tissue to wipe his hands, and shouted at Belle: “Hey, I’m going to the supermarket. ."

She forgot to fasten her coat, and the moment she opened the canteen door was filled with cool breeze. After walking a few steps, she secretly looked in the direction they were leaving. Jiang Baili didn't wear a jacket, and she looked very thin in the autumn wind holding Gobi's back. Luo Zhi was a little sad. In her impression, whenever she saw the two of them together, her fingers were not interlocking. It was always Jiang Baili holding the Gobi tightly.

A week ago, Gobi had a cold and called at 10:30 in the evening to say he wanted to eat something hot. Belle went all the way to Jiahe Yipin outside the school to buy pork liver spinach porridge and pan-fried bean curd, packed it and carried it to his bedroom. But he teased her roommate with a pretentious expression of concern.

"I heard that you also have a cold, are you okay now?"

Bastard. Luo Zhi shook his head again.

However, she won't be thankful to tell Belle that this man is unreliable, and it is best to break up early. Jiang Baili has dealt with a lot of rotten peach blossoms in the Gobi in the past year, and the wind and waves have come over, but still clinging to it, she does not need to superfluously test others' patience.

Luo Zhi may be regarded as a bystander, but Jiang Baili is not necessarily a fan of the parties involved-she just likes it.

Patience is a kind of wisdom, Jiang Baili said by herself.
