Watching the sea from the shore

Chapter 22 Can you like someone enough to be interested in her trash?

Lu Guanhai and Lin Xiang pushed Zhan Ping back to the office, and Lu Guanhai closed the door carefully.

Zhan Ping didn't understand. She stretched out two fingers and pinched the two homework books in disgust, and asked like a cannon: "Are you two sick? Do you two want to study music theory and take the exam? Or what?" You two didn't bring any paper with you when you went to the toilet, so you took our homework books to solve the problem?"

"No, I picked this up." Lin Xiang's face wrinkled like a bitter gourd, and he didn't know if he thought he had been wronged in some way.

One minute after the third period was marked, the head teacher of Class 1 walked into the class and asked Lin Xiang, who was sitting at the door, to bring him the lesson plan he had forgotten in the office.Before Lin Xiang could reach the office, he saw Jiang Lan walking out of the office, throwing two white notebooks into the trash can at the door, and stirring them up with a mop.

After Jiang Lan returned to class, Lin Xiang walked in to get the class teacher's lesson plan, but when he came out, he looked like he was possessed by an evil spirit.Seeing Jiang Lan's reaction at the time, he thought she was embarrassed because she had written something like a self-criticism and didn't want others to see it, so out of curiosity, he took a mop and dug them out of the trash can. Unexpectedly, it was Zhan Ping. and Ni Manhua’s homework.

Lin Xiang really didn't know how to deal with this matter. After returning, he sent a message to Lu Guanhai. Lu Guanhai originally planned to ask them about the situation after class, but the two of them were called to the office and scolded as soon as get out of class was over. Never found the opportunity.I had to wait until the crowd of onlookers dispersed after class before I thought of coming out together to return the favor.

Zhan Ping's attention went astray again, she looked at Lin Xiang and asked in shock: "If you like someone enough to be interested in her trash? Is it because I can't understand this world?"

Lin Xiang said awkwardly: "I want to see what she writes, nothing else."

Ni Manhua walked over and pulled Zhan Ping: "This is not what we should be concerned about now."

"Oh yes." Zhan Ping came back to her senses, put her hands on her hips and put on a fierce expression: "Then why didn't you come over after the meeting where we were scolded so bloody just now?"

"There were too many people outside at that time. If we tell them, everyone will know it's Jiang Lan. She should be just confused for a moment...ah, don't..." Lin Xiang raised his hands to cover his face and took two steps back. , otherwise Zhan Ping's slap would almost fall on his head.

Being misunderstood and humiliated, the two of them were scolded bloody by Lao Cui, but they ended up watching because they were protecting Jiang Lan's reputation?Zhan Ping felt like her lungs were about to explode. This was even more irritating than the scolding she had just received.

"Just this once." Lin Xiang whispered, "I treat you as a favor to me when I treat you to dinner tonight."

"Who wants to eat with you? You can eat what you like. Young people have to do such unscrupulous things and starve you to death." Zhan Ping was still cursing, but the expression on her face had changed. He calmed down a little and didn't look so manic.

Then Zhan Ping looked at Ni Manhua and wanted to hear her opinion. Ni Manhua didn't know what to say. She didn't understand Jiang Lan. She didn't know what Jiang Lan was thinking specifically, but if Jiang Lan could relieve her anger like this, She is willing to fulfill her once.Anyway, what happened has happened, the scolding they deserved has been done, and the homework books have been found. It will not be good for them to make the matter bigger.

In the end, under Lin Xiang's plea and Ni Manhua's persuasion, Zhan Ping compromised. She took her homework book to the class and called Lao Cui out. She only said that they dug out the homework book from the trash can, but no Know who did it.

Lu Guanhai and Lin Xiang went back, and Lao Cui came to the office. After turning over their homework, he looked at them silently for a while.

But no matter what, I had to say something, so Lao Cui seemed to want to make up for his own face, and scolded them both: "You said you two, forget it if you don't study hard, you are still in the class with your classmates There’s a conflict! Why are you two’s homework books thrown away? Be more honest from now on and save me some trouble!”

After saying that, Lao Cui walked out of the door without looking back, not forgetting to say to them: "What are you doing? Go back to class."

Ni Manhua followed up silently, and Zhan Ping took Ni Manhua's hand with renewed vigor: "I'm going to get scolded now? Why does he talk so much? He must not have been mute in his previous life."

"Just say a few words and it's already good that you don't have to invite parents."

After school in the afternoon, Lin wanted to come over and ask them to eat. Zhan Ping originally refused to leave, saying that although the matter was resolved, she still wanted to argue with Jiang Lan, so Ni Manhua dragged her away.

They haven't had dinner together for a long time. Anyway, no one has classes tomorrow, so they can play until later.

Sitting in the snack bar, Lin Xiang first apologized to them, then took out his mobile phone and kicked Jiang Lan out of the group chat in front of everyone: "Then this is completely over. It is in the past, and we will pretend it never happened. "

Originally, the people they wanted to get to know were Ni Manhua and Zhan Ping. Jiang Lan's appearance was just a misunderstanding. Although Lin Xiang liked her, the pure love in his heart was Jiang Lan's own stain. Wanting to take care of her face is already a big favor to her, and I don't plan to have anything to do with her after seeing through her character.

Zhan Ping sighed: "I'm very generous, I have no problem, as long as you can get over it by yourself, then it's over."

Lin wanted to sit down resentfully, but Lu Guanhai said slowly at this moment: "I have reasons for this happening, and I also want to apologize to you."

Zhan Ping admitted while muttering about the wonton soup: "That's right, it's all your fault for having such a peachy face, I have to find someone to take you in quickly to save all these troubles, or it will take a long time..."

"Zhan Ping, eat well. If you're not full after a bowl of wontons, order a bowl of dumplings." Zhan Ping's voice suddenly stopped under Ni Manhua's stern eyes. Ni Manhua rarely spoke so loudly, and the atmosphere suddenly changed. Got to be embarrassed.

It was Lin who wanted to smooth things over: "Sister Ping, do you want to eat dumplings? Why don't I order another...I'll have enough for today."

"Then let's have one..."

When high school students treat guests to dinner, they usually go to small shops around the school. Wonton dumplings, noodles, and fried dough sticks cost three to five yuan a portion. No matter how much they eat, they only cost dozens of yuan. This amount is not only for Ni Manhua and Ni Manhua in the future but also now. Zhan Ping is not that big, and art students generally come from well-off families, but many people in the school only have a few dozen pocket money a week.After understanding this, Ni Manhua couldn't help but regret what he blurted out just now, but the words had been said and he could not take them back.

Later, they changed the topic to other topics, and Ni Manhua was silently eating the noodles in his bowl without looking up.She only had enough courage to finish that sentence. Now she didn't dare to look into Lu Guanhai's eyes for fear that the look in his eyes would make her sad.
