Chapter 714: Youth. Lin Zhixuan's Heartbeat
rs of high school wasn't worth reminiscing about, was itAs it was the weekend, there was no one in the campus. He communicated with the security guard for a few words, and the security guard opened th...Lin Zhiyao tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Her mind was filled with Mr. Shi's voice and appearance. The impact of this encounter was too great; she had completely fallen for him.
Unable to sleep, she climbed into Tinglan's bed and cuddled up with her.
Tinglan shifted inward to make space for her, so she wouldn't fall.
"Tinglan, do you have a crush on anyone"
Lin Zhiyao seemed to be asking her this question for the first time. Because she looked like a good girl, she had never thought about things between men and women, so he had never asked.
Ting Lan remained silent for a long time, shaking her head in the darkness: "I don't think so."
Lin Zhihao sighed: "I'm going to be a senior soon. Actually, it wouldn't be bad to have an unburdened college romance, you should seize this youthful tail."
In a daze, Lan recalled her mother saying in high school that she would be allowed to date in university. She had once yearned for it, imagining herself fully experiencing youth and love in college.
But life takes unexpected turns, and now she doesn't have those thoughts at all. Besides, she has no confidence in men.
Seeing that Jian listened silently, Lin Zhixuan asked: "What kind do you like I can introduce you to some."
Tinglan continued to stay silent, pondering for a while before still shaking her head. "I have no concept of it, and I don't want to talk about it. Let's wait until after graduation when my job is stable."
Livelihood is far more important than romantic pursuits. And she isn't as carefree as Lin Zhixuan. If she were to fall in love, she would definitely be wholeheartedly committed.
"Shu Shu, you're too tense. Life can be lived a little more freely."
Lin Zhiyao realized early on that life is short and should be lived with relaxation and ease, without being bound by rules and regulations.
Two people whispered behind the curtains, luckily, Gao Gao hadn't come back home yet on Sunday. Tongtong was chatting with her boyfriend on her phone while wearing headphones.
"Please give me Mr. Shi's business card."
"What to do"
Add him on WeChat.
By then, WeChat had become widespread, and the vast majority of people had migrated to it.
Listening to the faint light from her phone, Lan handed over her business card and then fell asleep.
Lin Zixiao looked like a ghost in the night, staring at the phone's pale light as she carefully input each digit of Mr. Shi's number, like a devout believer. When she typed the last digit, she held her breath, fearing he wouldn't have a WeChat account.
When she pressed search and saw the avatar on the screen, she laughed hysterically.
The other party's WeChat name: Time.
The image is a very ethereal grayscale space shot, as if one could not see the end of time.
She hesitantly sent a friend request, without a word. Because her profile picture was her ID photo, it was clear who it was from.
The reason for using a passport photo, of course, is to show off how beautiful they are. Even a passport photo can be so flawless.
The application was approved in less than a minute after I submitted it.
Lin Zhixuan's heart was about to explode with excitement. Holding her phone on Tinglan's bed, she laughed so hard that she rolled around, waking Tinglan up in the process.
"Why don't you go back to your own bed and sleep"
Tinglan truly couldn't understand this sudden, earth-shattering change in her emotions.
Lin Zhixuan refused to go back to his own bed and insisted on dragging the drowsy Tinglan to appreciate Mr. Shi's circle of friends.
"Can you check if he's single"
Lin Zhixuan also has his bottom line. He will only consider making the first move if he is sure the other person is single.
Tinglan is so tired, she doesn't feel like looking at other people's social media updates. She mumbled, "No need to look, he's single. He went on a blind date at a coffee shop before, but didn't seem interested in the other person."
"Love you, love you." After hearing Tinglan's words, Lin Zihe became even more excited and couldn't sleep at all. Then, he quickly climbed back into his own bed.
Mr. Shi's Moments is a whole "sexually" cold style, the kind that reposts an industry article once every six months. If you want to peek into his private life, you can't even see half a character.
Without any conditions, Lin Zhihao created the circumstances and naturally uttered a sentence: "Aren't you asleep yet"
Mr. Shi did not respond.
Lin Zhixuan: "I guess you couldn't sleep because you drank coffee"
Mr. Shi had still not replied.
Lin Zhixuan: "I can't sleep either, because I had coffee at night."
She sent it and waited for a while, but the other party still didn't reply.
She didn't dare to talk any more, afraid she would bother the other party and get deleted.
So, in a last-ditch effort, he hesitantly sent a message: Good night.
Well, I didn't block her.
A little disappointed, it seems they have no interest in her.
She switched back to her own social media platform from WeChat and posted a crying face: I unilaterally declare, I'm heartbroken.
Below, her fans are frantically and mercilessly laughing: "Sister [redacted], less than 6 hours since you unilaterally announced your relationship."
This was the shortest-lived relationship ever.
Just as she was feeling down and about to go to sleep, her phone under the pillow buzzed.
A grayscale image of space sent a message: Good night!
Lin Zhi'ao was startled and sat up from her bed. She looked at the two characters over and over again, and declared that she hadn't broken up, she was fine again!
But this time, she held back, maintaining her composure and refraining from replying. One should not be overly eager in matters of love; just as there is give and take in business, so too in relationships. Only with room to maneuver can there be a graceful dance.
She didn't reply to his messages, but unable to contain her excitement, she crawled from her own bed to Tinglan's bed and harassed her, demanding that she open her eyes to take a look at Mr. Shi's reply.
Ting Lan was so angry that she was speechless, and there was nothing she could do about it.
She deeply realized that love can drive people crazy, but she wasn't in love, so her emotions were stable.
That week, Tinglan endured Lin Zhifei's relentless harassment until the weekend arrived.
Lin Zhixuan got up early to put on makeup and dress up, and in the afternoon, she went to the cafe with him on time.
This week, Lin Zhixuan, who had been successful in love affairs, ran into a wall. Mr. Shi chatted with her lukewarmly, neither proactive nor rejecting.
Lin Zhiyao scolded the scumbag while continuing to take the initiative to send messages.
"Have you seen what he always replies with"
Uh.
OK.
Yes.
Lin Zhixuan slid the phone screen for Tinglan to see.
"So cool! But what am I supposed to do about how much I like it"
Listen attentively......
As they spoke, the two arrived at the cafe.
As soon as they pushed the door open, a very sunny boy with a bright smile walked towards them and greeted them.
"Hi, Tinglan."
Ting Lan's footsteps stopped; it was Lu Kuo.
Lin Zhixuan whispered, "Do you know them"
"Well, high school classmate."
"Isn't that the high school classmate who always calls you The one who's chasing your friend You never said he was this handsome, and he looks really wealthy too."
When Lu Kuai walked over, Lin Zhicong nonchalantly sized him up. He was dressed head to toe in designer labels, a bit flamboyant but just the right amount to be appealing.
"Thank goodness you came to work today, I was worried I wouldn't see you." Lu Kuo walked over, completely ignoring Tinglan's coldness.ldn't do anything about her. He couldn't get angry at her, so he could only coax her, being very servile."No! It's just great.""What's so exciting"Lin Zhihao just laughed, a genuine smile: "Because th...
