They walked out of the lobby on the first floor and saw Li Rui's car parked outside the school from a distance.
Xie Dongling was very quiet for the second half of the journey, so quiet that Qiu Ci suspected that he was sleeping behind her, but the irregular warm breath on the back of his neck told him that he was still awake.
When Qiu Ci walked up to Li Rui with him on his back, the person behind him couldn't stay for a second. His legs dropped, eager to get to the ground.
Qiu Ci frowned slightly, fearing that he would fall, so he held onto his calf tightly, and only let go after he squatted down firmly.
Xie Dongling held Qiu Ci's shoulders and stood still. There was still an abnormal flush on his face, but it was not obvious in the dark night.
He pretended to be calm and said: "Qiu Ci, bye, see you tomorrow. Dad, let's go home."
Li Rui didn't expect Qiu Ci to be so friendly and helpful to his classmates. Knowing that Xie Dongling's leg was twisted and it was difficult to walk, he even carried him out specially.
After thanking Qiu Ci, Li Rui saw that there were fewer and fewer students around him, and felt a little sorry. He asked if he wanted to give him a ride and take him back.
Qiu Ci usually rides back by himself, but today he left so late to carry Xie Dongling on his back. It was so late and there were few students traveling with him, so as a parent, he felt uneasy.
"No, Uncle Li, I'll just ask the driver to pick me up." Qiu Ci politely refused him.
Although he said that, Li Rui still accompanied him and waited for the driver to come. After watching Qiu Ci get into the car and leave, Li Rui returned to the car.
While they were waiting for the bus outside, Xie Dongling felt a little deer in his heart. Standing with Qiu Ci, he thought of the saying "Zhu Bajie carries his wife on his back." He felt uncomfortable everywhere, his cheeks were flushed, and Li Rui mistakenly thought that his body was uncomfortable.
In order to prevent Xiaolu from breaking his heart, he found an excuse to get in the car first. By then, he had already fallen asleep in the back seat of the car.
That night, Xie Dongling had a dream, a dream that made his face turn yellow.
In the dream, Qiu Ci was a pig, a pig with a human head and a human body. Well... he was just a pig anyway.
Then what is Xie Dongling? He is a person, a person wearing red clothes.
He was walking boredly on the street, and villagers kept passing by him, saying: Zhu Bajie at the head of the village is getting a wife, and eighty-eight tables of banquets have been set up, and they are going to eat.
Eat for free? Where can I get a meal?
He also wants to get some food!
Xie Dongling really had no interest in what Zhu Bajie looked like. He just wanted to have a meal.
Following the villagers towards the village, Xie Dongling saw a beautifully decorated wooden house from a distance. The front of the wooden house was covered with red silk and there were many 囍 characters on it.
Xie Dongling looked left and right. There were many people around, but Zhu Bajie and his wife were nowhere to be seen. It was strange. Didn't it say that Zhu Bajie had a wife? Then where were Zhu Bajie and his wife?
No matter what, I came here to have a meal anyway. Xie Dongling shook his head and didn't want to think about Zhu Bajie and his wife anymore.
He found a table with few people and sat down. Not even a minute after he sat down, and the chairs were not yet warm, two women with red lips raised him up on the left and right.
Single-eyelid woman: "Hey, Dong Ling'er, why are you here? Give us a good meal. Go back to the house and wait. The time is coming."
The woman with double eyelids: "Don't go back to the house, Zhu Bajie went to the hall. Now I'm waiting to worship heaven and earth. I have a hijab. Put the hijab on Dong Ling'er. Hurry. "
Xie Dongling listened to their left and right words, his mind was confused, and he had no idea what they were talking about. A red hijab fell from the sky and accurately covered his head, blocking his sight.
The two women were very strong and lifted Xie Dongling's feet up in the air.
Xie Dongling was being held up by them. The first thing he thought in his mind was that this dream was quite real. He could still feel the feeling of being held up. Then his mind began to recall what they had just said.
Dong Linger? Zhu Bajie? Worship heaven and earth?
Combining these three words, Dong Ling'er and Zhu Bajie worship heaven and earth.
? ? ? !
Could it be that Zhu Bajie married him? Do they still want to worship heaven and earth? ?
help! He doesn't want to marry Zhu Bajie! Not even in a dream, he doesn't want it!
He struggled hard, trying to escape from the hands of the two women, but the two women held their hands tightly, and his struggle was nothing more than the flapping of a chicken's wings.
He didn't know where they went with him. The chatter of the villagers got farther and farther away from him until they disappeared.
"It's just the right time. We've caught up." The two women sighed deeply and let go of their hands to put Xie Dongling down.
As soon as Xie Dongling's feet landed, he turned around and wanted to run. He wanted to leave here and wake up.
But his body was out of his control. He was horrified to feel that his body took two steps forward and stopped.
Looking down, Xie Dongling found that there was another person standing next to him. The man was wearing similar red clothes to him. If he guessed correctly, the person next to him was Zhu Bajie! !
A clear voice sounded, "The time has come! Bow to heaven and earth!"
Can't worship, can't worship!
Xie Dongling couldn't wake up, couldn't move, couldn't even speak, and could only bow to the sky and the earth.
It's over. I didn't expect that he was only eighteen years old, the age when youth is blooming, and he would marry a Zhu Bajie in his dream.
Wuwuwu, someone come and save him.
"Two thanks to Gaotang!"
He changed his body direction and bowed to Gaotang.
"Husband and wife, hello!"
Wuwuwu, don't, don't worship Zhu Bajie.
No matter how much Xie Dongling cried in his heart, his body still bowed three times to Zhu Bajie.
"Send it to the bridal chamber!"
! ! !
Why do you still need to enter the bridal chamber?
Xie Dongling felt Zhu Bajie's hand holding his, leading him forward. Zhu Bajie's hand was actually not a pig's hand, but a slender white hand, which was larger than his hand and had a warm touch. It's a bit familiar, like Qiu Ci's hand.
At the same time, the voices around them suddenly disappeared, and only the sound of the two walking could be heard. Zhu Bajie never spoke, and the two just walked in silence until they entered their new house.
As soon as he entered the room, Xie Dongling found that his missing touch had returned. He could move. This was good news. He was leaving here.
But there is another bad news, that is, he is in the same room with Zhu Bajie now. He may not be able to defeat Zhu Bajie and escape.
To cope with all changes by remaining unchanged, Xie Dongling thought that this was his dream, and Zhu Bajie did not dare to do anything to him. He carefully broke away from Zhu Bajie.
Jie's hand wanted to lift the red hijab.
Halfway through the flirting, Xie Dongling suddenly put down the red hijab again.
No, Zhu Bajie is called Zhu Bajie, so he should have a pig face!
Even though he couldn't see what Zhu Bajie looked like, Xie Dongling could still comfort himself that it was just a dream. What if he saw it and remembered it all the time?
While he was thinking, Zhu Bajie picked up a jade Ruyi on the table, walked in the direction of Xie Dongling, and walked in front of him.
Without any precaution, the red hijab was suddenly lifted up. Xie Dongling saw half of Zhu Bajie's chin and was so frightened that he quickly closed his eyes, fearing that he would see a pig's face.
"Why don't you look at me?" Zhu Bajie said the first sentence, and his voice was very nice and familiar, like the voice of Qiu Ci.
Xie Dongling shook his head fiercely, he didn't want to look at it, who wants to look at a pig's face!
"Don't you want to see me? Or don't you want to get married to me?" Zhu Bajie smiled in a low voice, "Dong Ling'er, but we are already married. What should I do? You are my wife now."
The breath on his face was so close that Zhu Bajie seemed to want to kiss him. Xie Dongling was so frightened that he quickly opened his eyes.
Unlike what he imagined, what he faced was not a pig face, but a hateful face.
"Get up! Get up! Get up and have breakfast!"
"Huh?" Xie Dongling opened his eyes in a daze. What he saw was the white ceiling, and the annoying alarm clock kept ringing in his ears.
He woke up from his dream.
Xie Dongling felt strange all day today. First, Li Rui noticed something was wrong with him, because he only ate two pieces of bread and drank only half a cup of milk.
Li Rui asked with some worry: "Ling'er is not feeling well? Or is today's breakfast not to your liking? Why did you eat so little?"
Less?
Xie Dongling was still immersed in his dream last night. When he heard what Li Rui said, he came back to his senses and looked at the remaining bread on the plate. He felt that he had eaten a normal amount, but his father felt that he had eaten less. He would just eat another piece of bread and drink the half cup of milk.
With a bulging belly, Xie Dongling came to the school, and then saw Zhu Bajie at the school gate. No, he saw Qiu Ci.
For some reason, Xie Dongling felt that he wanted to avoid revenge for the first time. He pretended not to see it and stayed in the car, unwilling to get out.
"Ling'er?" Li Rui looked back at him, "It's almost time for early reading, why don't you go in?"
"Oh, I'll go in now." Xie Dongling was kicked out of the car by her father and walked slowly towards the school.
Qiu Ci was walking in front of him, and his speed was still very slow. Xie Dongling, who had sprained his ankle, could walk faster than him. If he went faster, the two of them would run into each other, so Xie Dongling had to slow down his speed.
There was an endless stream of students coming and going at the school gate, all rushing back to the classroom. This made two people seem out of place in the crowd.
Qiu Ci waited for a long time but didn't wait for Xie Dongling to catch up. He stopped and wanted to turn around to look for him. As soon as he turned around, he bumped into Xie Dongling who was walking without looking at the road.
With quick eyes and hands, he quickly grabbed his arm. Qiu Ci was about to speak, but Xie Dongling beat him to it. His curled eyelashes kept fluttering, and he greeted him very uncomfortably, "Qiu Ci, good morning... oh."
Qiu Ci was stunned for a moment, then took back what he interrupted and said calmly.
He said calmly: "...Well, good morning."
After saying that, Xie Dongling stopped talking, and Qiu Ci didn't speak either. The two of them walked back to the classroom in rare silence.
This is strange, Qiu Ci thought.
He was right. Xie Dongling was really weird today.
The strange points are mainly reflected in the following aspects.
For example, Xie Dongling refused to be helped. He said that his foot seemed to be healing soon, and being supported made him look weak, so he had to walk by himself.
For example, Xie Dongling stopped drinking the Wangzaizai milk he gave her. He said that he drank a whole glass of milk during breakfast. The milk content for the day was full and he would drink it tomorrow.
For example, Xie Dongling didn't ask him to go to the toilet together. The reason for not asking him was--because he wanted to go to the toilet with Xiu Zhi'an.
Qiu Ci nodded and expressed understanding, "Then you go ahead and I'll help you get the water."
He picked up Xie Dongling's bunny thermos cup and wanted to go out and help him get hot water. Xie Dongling looked nervous and snatched the thermos cup back. "I, I'm free, I can just take it myself."
Qiu Ci glanced at Xie Dongling's face and said, "Okay." He took his cup and walked out.
As soon as he left, Xie Dongling took a deep breath and pulled Xiu Zhian to the toilet.
Classmate A: "Oh, did they have a fight?"
Classmate B: "It doesn't look like a quarrel. Doesn't Qiu Ci still want to help him get hot water?"
Classmate C: "It's normal for classmates to quarrel. After getting along for a long time, invisible conflicts will emerge. A quarrel may also strengthen the friendship between classmates."
Classmate d: "Are you serious? Why don't I feel like they are quarreling? It seems like Xie Dongling is hiding from his revenge."
Classmate e: "How ridiculous, Xie Dongling can hide from others? I don't believe it. I've known him for three years, and he has never hid from anyone except the teacher."
Classmate A: "He seems to have escaped the principal?"
Classmate D: "That's not the point, right? The point is why he wants to hide and seek revenge. What happened to them?"
Qiu Ci came in from the back door with a glass of water. Several classmates immediately changed the topic and turned to discussing which university to enter.
Xie Dongling went to the toilet during class, but there were too many people in the toilet. He waited for a long time and returned to the classroom just before class started. He said he had no time to get the hot water by himself, which made him very thirsty throughout the period.
"So thirsty." He muttered softly.
Would you rather be thirsty than help him get hot water yourself?
Qiu Ci looked away from the blackboard and frowned slightly.
The fourth class in the morning was physical education. He had to go to the gym. Xie Dongling sprained his foot while chasing the dog. It was a blessing in disguise. He didn't have to go to physical education class and could stay in the classroom in a daze.
The classmates went out in twos and threes, and Xie Dongling also followed them out - going out to get hot water at the door. When they came back, the classroom was empty except for Qiu Ci.
Qiu Ci is the only one here? Why doesn't Qiu Ci go to physical education class? His feet are fine again.
In the past, Xie Dongling would have asked directly, but he didn't dare to ask now. He didn't even have the courage to look at Qiu Ci, because when he saw Qiu Ci, he thought of Qiu Ci's face so close to him in his dream. They worshiped heaven and earth, thinking that he was Zhu Bajie, and that they were his wives.
It's all because that dream was too real.
Qiu Ci waited for Xie Dongling to put down the thermos cup, then said calmly, "Avoid me?"
Xie Dongling's heart trembled, suspecting that Qiu Ci could read minds. He slowly shook his head and said without conscience, "No."
"Why don't you look at me?" Qiu Ci had no expression on his face.
His words overlapped with what Zhu Bajie said in his dream last night. There was a feeling of overlap between dreams and reality. Xie Dongling's face suddenly turned red.
He really didn't dare to look at Qiu Ci. Xie Dongling's eyelashes flashed faster, like two fluttering butterflies, and he explained hesitantly: "Well... Actually, I had a dream last night."
"Huh?" Qiu Ci waited for him to continue.
"I dreamed...I dreamed that you turned into a pig."
Zhu Bajie is a pig who takes a wife.
Unexpectedly, it was because of this incident that Qiu Ci felt a little dumbfounded, and quickly matched what Xie Dongling said last night.
He stopped smiling, was silent for a moment, and gave Xie Dongling a step up, "Because you dreamed that I was a pig, you dare not look at me. Xie Dongling, am I so scary in your dream?"
"It's not scary." Xie Dongling still lowered his head, and after a while, he muttered: "You are very handsome."
The two stopped talking. Qiu Ci stared at Xie Dongling's side face for a while and suddenly said, "Xie Dongling, you don't have to hide from me. Your most important thing now is the college entrance examination. If being my roommate affects you, I will I will tell Teacher Cheng to change positions."
"No!" Xie Dongling quickly turned his head to look at Qiu Ci.
He looked very serious and repeated, "Don't change places, Qiu Ci, I want to be your deskmate."
