Chapter 72: Give me my star back!
"Then, will you watch my game, Mom?" Jiang Nuan stepped forward and asked, wrapping her arms around her mother's waist.
"Go, go, I have so many things to do! You have summer vacation, but I don't." Mom said while making Jiang Nuan's bed.
Jiang Nuan looked at his mother's back in disappointment.
Hearing a clatter, the colorful bottle that Jiang Nuan had placed by the pillow fell to the ground.
"Ah!" She quickly squatted on the ground and picked it up.
The wax seal on the mouth of the bottle cracked, the bottle cap fell off, and a few stars were scattered.
Jiang Nuan stretched out his arms and touched them for a long time before picking them up.
Finally, I found the wishing star folded out of red paper.
"What is it, so baby?" Mom asked amusingly.
"Relying on it, my grades have skyrocketed! It is estimated that I will become a fairy next semester!"
Mom nodded at Jiang Nuan's head amusingly: "Didn't you rely on Lu Ran?"
"Okay, okay, it's almost like relying on Lu Ran!"
After all, Lu Ran helped her seal the mouth of the bottle, and Lu Ran folded the wishing star for her.
Jiang Nuan looked at the red star against the sunlight in the window, thinking that Lu Ran would help her seal the bottle again.
I tilted my head, and the words folded into the stars that came out from the light were so weird? Very powerful, not like her words.
Curiosity made Jiang Nuan take the star apart.
- I want to be with her all the time.
That handsome and somewhat powerful character, even if there is only one stroke, Jiang Nuan can recognize it, it's Lu Ran!
How is his star in the bottle?
Where did the one she folded go?
Jiang Nuan poured out the remaining stars in the bottle, but still didn't see that he folded.
"What's the matter! What about mine?"
Jiang Nuan carefully recalled the scene when he brought the bottle to find Lu Ran that day.
They all broke the stars, and when they finally sealed the bottle, they went out to find the lighter!
Could it be that at that time, the star that he put in the bottle was replaced by Lu Ran?
Like a fool, she brought Lu Ran's "wish" to the temple to pray for consecration! Still treat it like a baby and sleep next to your head every night?
So angry!
Lu Ran was too self-conscious to ride the ride!
Jiang Nuan held the bottle, went out of the house aggressively, and went upstairs.
As soon as the door opened, Lu Ran's hand reached out and rubbed Jiang Nuan's head.
"Have you finished packing your luggage?"
Jiang Nuan decided not to be deceived by his "hypocritical closeness", waved his hand away, changed his slippers and walked in.
Lu Ran definitely didn't throw away the star she folded, maybe it's hidden somewhere!
Seeing that Jiang Nuan walked into his room without answering his question, Lu Ran followed her silently, watching her sitting at his desk.
Jiang Nuan took out the dismantled red note from his pocket and slapped it on the table.
"What about mine?"
At this time, Lu Ran turned back, Jiang Nuan wondered if this guy was exposed by her and wanted to escape?
Unexpectedly, Jiang Nuan's shoulders shrugged along with the sound of "click" - Lu Ran locked the door.
This time, it was Jiang Nuan's turn to run away.
What are you doing on Lu Ran's site?
Look how stupid I am!
Obviously you can make a phone call to make fun of him!
"What's yours?" Lu Ran asked her softly as he walked over.
Jiang Nuan suddenly remembered what Lu Ran had said when he was playing games on KTV, and immediately his back tensed up in alarm.
He lowered his eyes, his eyes reminded Jiang Nuan of the gentle blade, and there was a faintly rebellious cold light.
The air became hot and dry, as if to evaporate all the water in Jiang Nuan's throat.
"The star I folded...you folded it in the bottle..."
Your wish is also written on it, and it is clear that it was intentionally replaced in the first place.
"You can look for it." Lu Ran pulled out the chair next to him and sat down against the back of the chair, feeling a little lazy, without the usual restraint and seriousness of straightening his back.
Such a relaxed Lu Ran made Jiang Nuan feel that he was a mindless little deer who was fooling around when the lion yawned. Whenever the lion opened its eyes, it would slap down and end its life.
"I...I don't want it anymore, I'm going back. The luggage hasn't been packed yet!"
Jiang Nuan was about to get up, but Lu Ran raised his hand and pressed her back directly.
He put his chin on his other hand and looked at her: "You look good in the provincial sports uniform."
Jiang Nuan was stunned: "What's the difference between this sports uniform and a school uniform! Where does it look good!"
At the beginning, I said that my school uniform looks so soiled that the mirror will crack. How can you say that I look good when I wear a similar sports uniform?
Open your eyes and talk nonsense!
"When you wear a school uniform, you are full of refusal to control and oppress. But wearing the clothes of the provincial team, your eyes are shining."
He twitched the corners of his mouth, and only when he was facing her would he smile so clearly, with a hint of ruffianness, but he clearly had a cold aura all over his body.
"Thank you for your affirmation, I'm leaving!"
Jiang Nuan wants to get up again.
Lu Ran pressed her back again.
"Look. The star you folded is here. If you find it, I'll let you go home."
"I don't want it anymore!" Jiang Nuan took the bottle and was about to leave, but Lu Ran dragged her back.
"If I can't find it, I'll do something bad." Lu Ran raised his eyes slightly, his eyes were deeply contoured, and the slightly raised eyelashes made his eyes look soft.
At this moment, his eyelashes brushed across Jiang Nuan's heart, as if he wanted to burn the sprouting wild grass there.
"You dare! I'll tell your parents!" Jiang Nuan pushed him.
He clearly knew that this guy was making fun of him, and even Jiang Nuan could guess the reason - the concise phone call that day.
"Go ahead and talk." He still smiled shallowly, clearly meaning "No one will believe that I will do bad things to you if you shout out your throat."
Jiang Nuan caught fire and kicked Lu Ran directly. Lu Ran didn't even bother to hide and was kicked by her.
He just wanted her to find it!
Jiang Nuan simply opened Lu Ran's drawer. The inside of his drawer was very neat. Whether it was stationery or some small things, they were neatly organized and arranged in a very orderly manner.
Seeing how neat they were, Jiang Nuan had a destructive nature. He took out all his notebooks and rummaged through them, and a postcard fell off.
It was New Year's Day when they were in their first semester of high school, and the class organized a New Year's party. In order to increase the fun, the teacher asked each classmate to prepare a snack bag, seal it with calendar paper or newspaper, and then everyone went to pick up the snack bag prepared by others.
Jiang Nuan eagerly prepared Lay's Potato Chips, Wang Zhongwang's ham sausage, marinated eggs, spicy strips, and plum, and also wrote a postcard very seriously, wishing the person who drew her snack bag good luck in the New Year.
But in the snack bag she drew... there were only two sugar canes and two Jiaying seeds.
When she opened it, she almost cried.
Do you want her to be a girl eating sugar cane in front of everyone! Does the person who prepared the snack bag have any brains?
As a result, she was very depressed throughout the New Year's party, thinking that her luck this year would be very bad. Even if Rao Can and Cheng Doudou shared some of the snacks they had drawn for her, she felt that she couldn't eat them.
"It... why is it here with you? I remember that the person who picked up my snack bag was Li Tietou!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Nuan burst into tears.
Lu Ran just held his chin: "Keep looking for the star you folded."
Jiang Nuan was not distracted by him: "How did you get my postcard from Li Tietou?"
"Li Tietou disliked your ugly writing. He was afraid that he would be unlucky a year after accepting your 'blessing', so he asked me if I could change it with me. I changed it with him."
"What—he still dislikes my ugly words?" Jiang Nuan almost didn't fry.
"It's fine if I don't dislike it."
Jiang Nuan snorted, but felt inexplicably happy in his heart.
Isn't it... When Li Tietou told Lu Ran about changing New Year's postcards, Lu Ran was actually very happy?
"It's not that you took the initiative to tell Li Tietou to change it, right?"
"If I take the initiative to say that I want to change it, it's not that you are chasing me in the rumored scandal." Lu Ran still looked like the old **** was there, then reached out and took the postcard from Jiang Nuan, and put it back in the book.
He cares about that postcard.
Jiang Nuan continued to rummage in his drawer, and suddenly saw the concisely used fountain pen. She fell down while doing her homework here at Lu Ran. She didn't come to find it, but this pen is really good. Write! Every time I use it, my test scores are better than expected.
"My pen - it's here! I'm taking it!"
As soon as Jiang Nuan's hand went in, Lu Ran took it away first.
"I want this pen." His smile closed.
"Good luck with this pen in the exam!" Jiang Nuan grabbed Lu Ran's arm to pull it back, but Lu Ran immediately switched it to the other hand.
"You didn't use this pen for the final exam this time, and your grades were good. Or do you think you'll get good grades with it, because it's been used concisely, and it will bring you good luck?"
Jiang Nuan could understand why Lu Ran cared so much about this pen. He had cared about it before, and he pretended to return it to her.
The more he doesn't give it, the more she wants it!
"Give it back to me!" Jiang Nuan stood up and pressed Lu Ran's shoulder. The posture was that if Lu Ran dared to stretch his arm, she would stand on the table and grab it.
She just pushed the chair away when Lu Ran, who was opposite, also stood up.
"What are you doing, you want to fight with me!" Jiang Nuan just couldn't get used to Lu Ran's concern about simplicity, but she didn't like it!
In the next second, Lu Ran bit the pen between his lips and leaned against her suddenly, as if he was about to collide. At that moment, he seemed to be standing at the two ends of the sword, and he would pierce her with his sword at any time.
Jiang Nuan stepped back subconsciously, but Lu Ran moved forward, his eyebrows raised a little, as if to say: Come and take it.
Jiang Nuan took it with his hand, but Lu Ran grabbed his wrist. He took another step forward, and Jiang Nuan stepped back again, his knees against the edge of Lu Ran's bed, and sat down, she looked up at him.
Lu Ran lowered his body and put his hands on Jiang Nuan's side, as if to circle her. He raised his chin, and Jiang Nuan immediately understood what he meant: Do you want this pen?
"No!" Jiang Nuan quickly pushed him, but Lu Ran didn't move.
He raised one leg and pressed his knee against Jiang Nuan's side, frightening Jiang Nuan's adrenaline, she immediately squeezed out, almost fell to the ground, and ran out immediately.
As soon as he took a step, Lu Ran pulled him back.
Lu Ran simply put the pen into Jiang Nuan's hand, just like passing a city and leaving a flower in the crack of the city wall.
"Do you think the wish I wrote is bad? You don't want to be with me all the time?"
This time, Lu Ran was sitting there, and Jiang Nuan was standing in front of him. As long as he pulled gently, she would fall into his arms.
Jiang Nuan thought about it and nodded: "When you don't care about simplicity with me, I think it's good to be with you all the time."
Lu Ran snorted lightly: "I don't care about Jianming, it doesn't mean Jianming doesn't want to care about me."
"I know Jian Ming has a good impression of me, otherwise he wouldn't take care of me that much, he wouldn't come to see me often, and he would call me to care about my situation.
But he knows I like you. "
"Then seal me and your star back into the bottle." Lu Ran said.
"Then stop teasing me."
"No tricks today."
Jiang Nuan rolled his eyes in his heart - the implication is that you will play tricks on me in the future?
She was a little depressed in her heart. If she told others that "it's obviously he has a crush on me", no one will believe it. If she says, "He's jealous when he's okay," others will say she feels too good about herself.
Her biggest failure is that in the past ten years, she has not established a high-quality character like Lu Ran did.
Lu Ran patiently resealed the wax seal on the mouth of the bottle, handed it to Jiang Nuan, and said, "Hold on and sleep well."
"Then where did the one I folded go?"
Lu Ran raised the corners of his lips: "Even if you didn't ask God to worship Buddha, didn't your wish come true?"
"You peeked!"
"I don't need to peek, I know what you're thinking. But you don't necessarily know what I'm thinking." Lu Ran raised his hand and flicked Jiang Nuan's forehead.
At that moment, Jiang Nuan couldn't help but wonder if Lu Ran meant that he liked her far more than she liked him?
"Go back and collect your luggage. Do you want me to help you?"
"don't want."
Jiang Nuan immediately left with his colorful bottle in his arms.
After leaving Lu Ran's house, Jiang Nuan said to herself very depressed: "What the **** am I doing here at his house!"
The provincial team organized all the participating team members to fly to the imperial capital.
Jiang Nuan, who went to the imperial capital for the first time, was really excited. Jiang Huai was also the saber coach of the provincial team this time, so he also went to follow.
During the check-in procedure, Jiang Huai and team leader Lu Jinfeng also chose the seats together. It is estimated that there are still many things to discuss on the plane.
When lining up, Tan Yan and Huo Ling, who participated in the team competition, were behind Jiang Nuan and Lu Ran. Of course, she didn't have a good face the whole time.
From the moment they gathered at the airport, Jiang Nuan noticed that the girls from the saber team and the foil team also kept looking in Lu Ran's direction. He was originally tall, tall and straight, and stood out among many male players.
But after listening to the coach and the team leader's advice, he stood not far from Jiang Nuan except for a few words with Mu Sheng.
For example, when Jiang Nuan's suitcase fell from an unstable center of gravity, Lu Ran reached out and grabbed it.
"I'll take the suitcase for you next time." Lu Ran's words made Tan Yi, who was not far away, turn around and walk away.
When choosing a seat, Jiang Nuan just handed his ID card to the staff, and Lu Ran walked over with his suitcase and handed over his ID card. It was only natural that the staff asked him not to. There was no point in cutting the line, so they lined up the two seats together.
Brother, can you keep a low profile?
Lu Ran gently carried Jiang Nuan's luggage onto the conveyor belt, and then lowered his head to pick up his luggage.
Jiang Nuan took the boarding pass and lowered her head. Her father and Lu Ran's father are still there, can you not be so obvious!
When he got on the plane, Jiang Nuan immediately tilted his head to pretend to be asleep, but the pretended sleep soon turned into a real sleep.
After more than three hours, they arrived at the Capital Airport.
Jiang Nuan was very excited from the moment he started picking up his luggage.
Jiang Nuan's heart is full of expectations for this unfamiliar city that is at the center of culture and competitive sports.
When her suitcase was turned around on the conveyor belt, she almost didn't react, but Lu Ran, who was standing beside her, was much more awake.
This is not the first time he has come to the city, everything is very skilled.
He put his and Jiang Nuan's luggage on the cart.
Jiang Nuan didn't want to be taken care of by him like this, so he took the initiative to push the cart, but found that the cart couldn't be pushed.
Lu Ran didn't speak, just stood by the side, watching Jiang Nuan carefully observe the other passengers, and pressing down the handle of the cart.
"You just didn't tell me how to push on purpose."
Just want to see her make a fool of yourself?
"I'll just push it."
"I push myself."
"Yeah. Two options, I'll push, and you can walk aside. Or, you push, and I'll just put my hand around you." Lu Ran's face was expressionless, making it impossible to imagine what he said to Jiang Nuan. what is.
Jiang Nuan immediately let go and stood aside.
The corner of Lu Ran's lips twitched, and he put his hands on the handlebars and pushed the car out.
This time, the host venue of the National Youth Fencing League is the fencing hall of University B, and University B specially sent staff to pick them up.
Jiang Nuan glanced at him and saw Jianming standing there in a black suit with a work badge around his neck.
