Chapter 40: statement and confession

Chapter 40: statement and confession

Jiang Nuan followed in three or two steps, turned his face sideways, looked at Lin Shu and said, "I'm really not used to the way you talk so earnestly."

"In your heart, how rude I am! Jiang Nuan, do you know why so many people came to challenge me in the club's practice game this morning?" Lin Shu asked.

"I know! It's because you're a person who doesn't speak well! You said that no one in our 'Huaifeng' can beat you except Lu Ran!" Jiang Nuan gave him a white look.

"This is part of what I said. But the whole thing is, I told Lu Ran that if you beat Chen Lu in that practice match, I'll confess to you." Lin Shu squinted his eyes with a smirk on his lips. , making it impossible to tell the truth.

"You... you are really boring! I've only met you a few times!"

She has always been self-aware, and she is not a cute girl who will make people "love at first sight" or "goodbye". For a boy like Lin Shu, the chance of calling her is probably more difficult than Halley's comet hitting the earth.

But this is the first time that a boy has an "intention to confess" to her, whether it's sincere or joking.

"However, I told Lu Ran again that if someone other than Lu Ran in Huaifeng can beat me, I will keep my mouth shut and won't confess to you."

Jiang Nuan was stunned.

Could it be that just because Lin Shu provocatively said he wanted to confess, Lu Ran, Mu Sheng and the others arranged wheel battles one after another?

"After you know, do you feel very proud?" Lin Shu lowered his head slightly and looked into Jiang Nuan's eyes, with a smile still on his lips.

"What's there to be proud of. You just like unprovoked provocations, and you don't really want to confess to me!" Jiang Nuan rolled his eyes at him.

"I want to confess to you."

"what?"

"Confession, it doesn't have to be to say bad sayings like 'I like you', 'I love you to death' and so on, it is called a confession. Saying the real thoughts in your heart and your true attitude towards you is not a confession? ?" Lin Shu smiled.

"Then what do you want to say?"

"Do you know why I always provoke Lu Ran?"

Jiang Nuan was stunned for a moment, "Isn't it just last year's game that you and him lost the last sword, aren't you happy?"

Lin Shu shook his head: "I don't have a mind, but I'm not that mindless."

"Why is that?"

"Probably I admire his determination. He is determined in everything, and he is always sure that he can do it. For example, chasing behind Jian Bing, you have to surpass him. Jian Bing, in our group planning to go For those who are on the road of competitive sports, it is a benchmark, a mark, as if we were born to follow him. If it is a game with concise, if we can lose 15-13, the coach will praise me, and my teammates will praise me. I envy me. But Lu Ran is different. When he loses to Jianming, he always holds the sword in his hand tightly. He is always tense, not happy or satisfied. It seems that his standards are born higher than ours. "

The light of the street lamp was a little cold, but the eyes of the boy in front of him were hot.

"Other people are looking up to Jianming, but I want to be Lu Ran. But because of this, I want to pick on his faults, and I want to see him upset and show the same expression as ordinary people, so that I can calm down with him. envy."

"But... you didn't make him unhappy..." Jiang Nuan spread his hands, "He is the kind of person who can never be unhappy."

"No." Lin Shu nodded Jiang Nuan through the air, "You."

"I?"

"Look, when I said I wanted to confess to you, he was no longer a gentleman. I called out all the people who were capable of 'Huaifeng'." The corners of Lin Shu's mouth were curved, and he smiled happily.

"You...you are bullshitting! How could Lu Ran..."

"Why can't he? I told you all, Lu Ran is the kind of guy who will never let go easily once he has decided what he wants to do or achieve."

"But you said it as if he cared about your confession to me... Who likes me, or who I have a crush on... He doesn't interfere and care at all, okay? He... he looks like The kind of person who will use his own high standards to measure others, but he actually respects the people around him, from privacy to decision. Stepping back 10,000 steps, he really made everyone come here because you said you wanted to confess To deal with you, that's because I'm a man of wind, and you're too unreliable. He wants to protect me with everyone. In the final analysis, it's you who confesses, and the quality is unsightly." Jiang Nuan Looking at Lin Shu with the expression "Your brain is watts".

"It's not so much to protect you, but to want to keep you. If you are not important to a certain extent in his heart, lofty and sullen like him, as for being so anxious, he will hang up the whole 'Huaifeng' to deal with me , for fear that I will really confess to you?"

Lin Shu walked forward with his pockets in his pockets, Jiang Nuan was stunned for a long time, still digesting Lin Shu's words.

Lu Ran cares about her?

Of course he cares, he doesn't care how he solves Cheng Doudou's cheating, doesn't care how he reads comics with her to go to Haichuan University, and why would he challenge Director Zhang for her, or even make it into the top three in the grade?

Lin Shu is such an unreliable "confessor", of course Lu Ran will "cut the middle" for her!

"Jiang Nuan! Are your legs short? I've already come here! Are you turning left or right now?" Lin Shu's voice rose high.

"Left...turn left..."

Jiang Nuan was still immersed in the satisfaction of "Lu Ran cares about her".

Lin Shu looked at Jiang Nuan's small expression of squinting and pursing his lips and laughing, the loneliness in his eyes slipped, he secretly exhaled a breath, and suddenly put on his knees and laughed loudly: "Jiang Nuan! Don't you think I It's true what I told you!"

It was as if a basin of cold water suddenly fell from the sky, pouring a chill through the heart.

"Lin Shu! What did we say about Chapter 3!" Jiang Nuan ran forward and kicked.

"It seems that the rumors I heard are true. You have a crush on Lu Ran! Otherwise, why would you be hooked if I try like this!" Lin Shu didn't fight back, but he dodged left and right, and soon his legs The sweatpants suffered Jiang Nuan several times.

"You have a sick mind! Are you always taunting girls like this!"

"You're serious, right?" Lin Shu was finally kicked to the ground by Jiang Nuan and hugged his head.

Jiang Nuan thought that it would be impossible to relieve his anger no matter how he kicked him, so he looked at him coldly with his pocket in his pocket.

"Hey, Jiang Nuan, are you starting to think wildly?"

There was a schadenfreude in Lin Shu's voice.

"What am I thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about all kinds of possibilities that haven't happened yet. I said that when we are fencing, most of the time we rely on our instinct to overcome the enemy to win. But now, your future is so broad and bright, there are countless choices, look at me, I'm also a good person. choice."

"Che... choose you, I might as well go to the street to sell sweet potatoes."

"That's alright, you sell sweet potatoes, and I'll buy them. Just stand in front of your sweet potato stand when you're done."

"What are you standing for?"

"Give the fart to you!"

"Your jokes are so cold and boring!"

Walking on, Jiang Nuan brought Lin Shu to the door of a specialty store.

The two went in to buy something.

When Lin Shu looked at the production date while picking things, Jiang Nuan felt once again that he was actually a very careful person.

Many boys buy things without looking at the production date, just take them and leave.

Leaving the specialty store, Lin Shu was carrying two large bags, and Jiang Nuan walked beside him.

When they passed a dessert shop, Lin Shu said, "Do you eat ice cream?"

Jiang Nuan took out both of his pockets, indicating that he was penniless.

"Even if you beat all the boys, you're still a girl. I invite you." Lin Shu carried the bag and entered the dessert shop.

He put the bag by the window, and the two of them stood in front of the menu and looked up for a long time.

In fact, Jiang Nuan didn't want to eat ice cream at all, and felt that he had to let Lin Shu bleed.

"Hey, can't you see the menu clearly? Do you want me to carry you?" Lin Shu asked amusingly.

"I'm looking at which one is the most expensive." Jiang Nuan replied coolly, not forgetting to turn his face to look at the other party's face, "You won't be able to afford me, will you?"

"If you can't afford others, you have to afford you."

"Then I want that - the ultimate version of taro balls!"

"As soon as I hear the word 'Supreme', it is very tacky."

"Which one is not tacky?"

"That, Yang Zhi Ganlu, how immortal."

"That one is the cheapest, you can keep it for yourself."

In other words, Lin Shu said that, he still bought the supreme version of taro **** for Jiang Nuan.

Both are facing the window.

Lin Shu supported his chin, looked at Jiang Nuan blowing taro balls, and said softly, "I have fantasized about a scene before."

"What scene?"

"I was sitting side by side with someone I liked in a convenience store, facing the window, eating oden, we were joking, I teased her, and she would get angry."

"I'm sorry, you can only sit in the dessert shop and watch me eat the supreme taro balls." Jiang Nuan tilted her face and said, "Hey, why don't you drink your Yangzhi nectar?"

"I'll wait for it to cool before drinking it."

"Are you all right? It's always cold."

"I mean, let my heart cool."

"Then let it dry slowly." Jiang Nuan took another bite.

At this moment, a slender figure on the opposite side of the road walked towards the night. He was running, his jacket was dragged by his speed, and he seemed to see Jiang Nuan sitting on the other side of the glass window. Slowed down, but still came at a rapid pace.

"Ah, I'm cold now." Lin Shu lowered his body and picked up the souvenir he bought.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Jiang Nuan looked at Lin Shu in surprise.

Lin Shu just smiled: "I said, I envy Lu Ran, right?"

"Yeah." Jiang Nuan nodded.

"Now is the time when I envy him the most."

After speaking, Lin Shu walked to the door, and when Jiang Nuan raised his eyes, he saw Lu Ran who had already walked to the window.

He looked at her, with one hand on the glass, Jiang Nuan could just see the slight sweat on his forehead.

Why was he running out in such a hurry?

Jiang Nuan put down the spoon and looked at Lu Ran with a dumbfounded look, and suddenly pushed open the door of the dessert shop, almost rushing in front of Jiang Nuan.

His expression was frighteningly cold, as if it was covered with frost, and at the moment when he came to Jiang Nuan, it was like it cracked open.

"Lu... Lu Ran?"

"Where's Lin Shu?"

Jiang Nuan swallowed, she stood up, subconsciously wanted to take a half step back, but bumped into the chair and sat down again.

She was sure that Lu Ran gritted his teeth when he read the words "Lin Shu".

She had never seen Lu Ran's always restrained emotions released so obviously.

"He... just left... as soon as he saw you he left..."

At this time, Lu Ran's cell phone vibrated, he took it out and looked at it, his brow furrowed into a deep ravine.

Although Jiang Nuan felt that Lu Ran's aura was terrifying at this time, he couldn't resist his curiosity and leaned over to look at it.

It turned out to be a text message from Lin Shu: Yang Zhi Ganlu ordered it for you, I have never touched it.

"Ah? He ordered it for you?" Jiang Nuan really didn't understand what Lin Shu was thinking in his head.

"Let's go." Lu Ran's hand reached out and grabbed Jiang Nuan's wrist to pull her out.

"Ah? Don't you drink? He really hasn't touched it!"

Just now Lin Shu made a joke on Lu Ran, but now that she really saw Lu Ran, Jiang Nuan's whole body tensed up.

Why is he here?

He was obviously here to find her!

So what did Lin Shu tell him?

Lu Ran in front took a breath and seemed to calm down, but he still dragged Jiang Nuan out.

"What's wrong with you, Lu Ran? What did Lin Shu tell you! Tell me..." Jiang Nuan stopped and clasped Lu Ran's hand.

Lu Ran paused and did not look back.

"Did you come out when someone asked you to come out at night? Whoever invited you to eat, you would eat happily? Wherever they take you, you will go?"

Jiang Nuan was there, silent.

Both of them were silent, and a car drove past them sporadically.

After a long time, Jiang Nuan said, "Lu Ran I don't like you like this."

Lu Ran turned his back to her and remained silent.

The grievances in Jiang Nuan's heart surged up hundreds of times.

"Can't you just say something straight?"

Only then did Lu Ran slowly turn around, "Jiang Nuan, do you know that you are a girl?"

There was a hint of helplessness in his high voice.

"I know!"

"Then do you know that you are not as strong as boys?" Lu Ran asked again.

"I... Of course I know." Jiang Nuan looked at Lu Ran, completely ignorant of the meaning of Lu Ran's questions.

"You can beat Lin Shu in fencing, but that doesn't mean you can beat him in whatever he does to you."

Lu Ran's voice seemed clear, but implied strength.

"I know... Lin Shu told me that it was everyone's wheel battle that consumed his physical strength, so I could win against him."

"Then do you know that he has ulterior motives for you?" Lu Ran asked suddenly.

It was like a bomb that exploded in Jiang Nuan's head?

"Ah? What..."

In the next second, what Jiang Nuan thought was, was it true that Lin Shu told Lu Ran in the club that he wanted to confess to her?

Lu Ran closed his eyes and sighed slightly.

He rarely showed helplessness, but this time, it seemed that all helplessness was given to Jiang Nuan this night.

He took the phone out of his pocket and handed it to Jiang Nuan.

Jiang Nuan took the phone suspiciously and glanced at the text message on the screen.

Lu Ran didn't save Lin Shu's name, but the text of the text message made Jiang Nuan's eyes fall out: I invited Jiang Nuan to eat dessert in Mangle, and the Lufeng Hotel opposite looked like a nice room.

Even if Jiang Nuan has never eaten pork, he has seen the pig run! The hint in this message is too obvious!

No wonder Lu Ran ran out in such a hurry!

"Lin Shu, he's sick! I'm going to open a room for him!"

"You open a room for him?" Lu Ran's brows were about to rise, and his anger was barely concealed, and it came overwhelmingly.

Jiang Nuan subconsciously wanted to take a step back, but Lu Ran clearly stood in the same place and didn't move, but there was a sense of pressing pressure. Jiang Nuan stammered and said, "I... I just want to say go to a mental hospital to open a room for him..."

Don't they make jokes like this often? No... Didn't she keep talking about the front of the stalk, and Lu Ran knew the back?

Lu Ran turned his face to the side, not knowing what he was thinking, but Jiang Nuan could feel that all his emotions had subsided.

Everything that happened before was like an illusion.

However, Lin Shu's text message was obviously a provocation.

Ordinary Lu Ran should know Lin Shu's bad taste, so he wouldn't manage his money at all, but why would he take it seriously and come here?

In Jiang Nuan's heart, something was just about to move.

She looked at the back of Lu Ran walking in front of him, shrouded in dark light and shadow, sharp and straight, he always looked ahead, so did he care about anyone else in his heart?

She knew that Lu Ran would be so nervous about Lin Shu's text messages, perhaps because she was the coach's daughter, or because she was his roommate, closer and more important than other classmates, but Jiang Nuan still thought To try it out.

"Hey, you ran over after reading such a text message, I thought you liked me!"

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Nuan's heart seemed to fly.

She felt that she was crazy, how dare she say such a thing to Lu Ran!

What will happen to Lu Ran?

"Aren't you also infected by a neurosis?" replied her indifferently, if so, she could bury the bud that almost broke out of the ground again.

Or he left without any response, and in the future, he could take this as a boring joke and tease him shamelessly.

Lu Ran, who was about to walk around the corner, stopped, he turned around, and Jiang Nuan, who was facing him at that moment, felt that he was a knight fighting the dragon, straightened his back, and wanted to stabilize his momentum. .

Lu Ran's lips were always taut, those eyes were mixed with some kind of warm emotion, but they were suppressed by a deeper desire, and the contradiction made her heart tremble.

He walked towards her and approached her.

It wasn't the first time they'd been so close, nor was it the first time she could see his fine eyebrows clearly.

He turned his face sideways, as if to rub her nose and kiss her.

Everything she knew about him was subverted at that moment.

Jiang Nuan didn't even dare to breathe.

She almost felt the temperature of Lu Ran's lips. When a car passed by behind her, the slight vibration of the road caused Jiang Nuan to wake up from a big dream. She wanted to take a step back.

Lu Ran's eyebrows were still drooping slightly, under the light and shadow, there was a kind of charming that made him unable to look away.

Lu Ran slowly straightened his waist, and took another step forward seemingly indifferently. He bent down again.

Jiang Nuan has seen this scene many times in Cheng Doudou's girl's cartoon where Cheng Doudou fell.

She always felt that there would be no boys with the profile faces in the comics, and the eyebrows and eyes would not have such a disturbing beauty.

But Lu Ran did it easily.

He was about to approach her again, and his heart was about to burst. What did Lu Ran want to do?

He hasn't answered her question yet, why is he getting so close?

Jiang Nuan closed his eyes, frowned, and took another step back.

The next second, his forehead was pressed hard.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Ran with one hand in his pocket, opened the distance between them, and looked at him.

"Next time a boy you don't like kisses you, you can do it like this - wrinkle yourself into a shumai, and you can't find a place to talk."

He turned his face sideways, the smile on the corner of his mouth was a mockery of Lu Ran's style, but there was a trace of regret in his eyes.

"You... are you kidding me just now?"

"If I don't play with you, what can I do?" Lu Ran turned around and said, "Go home."

Jiang Nuan let out a long breath.

Want to keep up, but dare not keep up.

The closer you get, the more unrealistic thoughts in your heart are like weeds growing wildly. The more you suppress it, the more you look forward to it.

"Jiang Nuan." Lu Ran's voice was soft.

"Ok?"

"You have to remember that if you don't have the determination to become a Buddha, don't come to provoke me."

His voice quietly and firmly penetrated the darkness of the night and fell into her ears.

"what?"

"I'll make you cry."

Lu Ran stretched out his long legs and continued to walk forward.

"Cry! How can you make me cry!" Jiang Nuan quickly followed.

Is he testing her? Are you kidding her?

Along the way, no matter what Jiang Nuan said, Lu Ran remained silent.

He was as quiet as a sculpture.

But such a sculpture has the most profound outline in Jiang Nuan's eyes.

She knew that only when she was more confident, when he was close to her, would she stop wrinkling like a shumai.

She would meet him, bump into his softest spot, and watch him look surprised.

Ask him, the question that lingered in her heart... that made her feel anxious.
