Watching the sea from the shore

Chapter 9 16 years old that doesn’t belong to her
After ordering, everyone at the table was chatting with each other. Except for Ni Manhua, who rarely spoke, they chatted very animatedly.Class [-] is a key class, and Art Class [-] is also a class with a high enrollment rate in the school. Compared with students in ordinary classes, everyone always has a sense of superiority that they are not even aware of.And when the students from the two classes come together, they are somewhat curious about each other, but there is nothing that can definitely win.

Only Ni Manhua was always absent-minded, trying his best to keep his eyes on everyone except Lu Guanhai, listening to their conversations, and occasionally returning a polite smile.

This is warm, green, beautiful, and does not belong to her 16 years old.

Just thinking about it.A plate of sizzling squid came.Between Ni Manhua and Lu Guanhai was the serving position. An eight or nine-year-old girl was standing next to her with a wet towel holding a plate. Ni Manhua leaned her body towards Zhan Ping.

The small restaurant next to the school is not a formal restaurant. It is common for relatives to work part-time and for their own children to help. Ni Manhua watched the little girl carefully bring the dishes to the table.She didn't seem to have enough strength. Ni Manhua stretched out his hand to help, but the iron plate was tilted to her side.

At this moment, another hand stretched out from under the table and placed it on her hand.The iron plate, which was still screaming "Zizzi", couldn't bear the force and hit it, and was pushed to the table by the little girl.

A shocking red appeared on the fair skin.The little girl was dumbfounded. Her lips moved for a long time without even daring to say an apology.Ni Manhua asked her to quickly get a snow brick from the freezer.

Lu Guanhai put his hand on hers and frowned.Everyone at the table looked over, and Jiang Lan asked nervously: "What's wrong with this little girl? Does it hurt? Her forehead is sweating."

Lin Xiang answered quickly: "That's right, how can a little girl serve such a dish?"

Ni Manhua could feel that Lu Guanhai was in pain.When the iron plate first hit her, his hand was shaking on her arm.He may be feeling better now, so he took his hand back and put it on the table: "Of course you will sweat in this weather without air conditioning. Let's eat first, and go to the clinic to buy some ointment when we go back."

"Boss!" Lu Guanhai just finished speaking, and the grumpy Wu Bo had already raised his voice: "Boss, how do you open a store? Is it responsible for burning people?"

He had such a loud voice that the whole store heard him.

The boss trotted out, still holding ointment in his hand, which he had just taken out of the medicine box.

The little girl followed behind holding snow bricks.The boss wanted the little girl to apologize and angrily said that today's meal would be free of charge for them.

Luo Zheli asked coldly: "You let such a young child serve food. Is this a free thing? How about I heat it for you and treat you to this meal?"

Luo Zeli usually doesn't talk much, but once he speaks, he often makes the other party speechless.The boss stood there with a red face and said nothing.The restaurants around here are doing student business, if this business goes on and on and gets a bad reputation, it will be a big loss.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and no one could think of a better way. In the end, Lu Guanhai came forward to mediate, saying that it was not a big deal and let them eat first so as not to delay the afternoon class.

Lu Guanhai was permed for Ni Manhua.But Ni Manhua never said thank you to him from beginning to end. Even when Lu Guanhai asked her if she was okay, he didn't know how to respond.

She was in chaos and seemed to have lost the power of words.

Since then, Zhan Ping and Jiang Lan have been getting closer and closer to them. Zhan Ping is crazy, Wu Bo likes to talk to beautiful women, and Ni Manhua tries to stay away from the circle they have formed, but Zhan Ping always pressures him to participate.

"My dear Manman, is your benefactor going to join in the fun with Class [-] after school?" Ni Manhua was carrying the formula, and Zhan Ping came over to harass him again.I don’t know who started it. Now when they mentioned Lu Guanhai to her, they used the title of “benefactor”, reminding her all the time that even if it happened again, she owed Lu Guanhai’s favor and could not help it. Make a clean break with him.

"I won't go. It's not worth watching the two top students from the Rockets class play." Ni Manhua's eyes did not leave the public notice board: "You and Jiang Lan go."

There was no basketball stand in the school's indoor gymnasium, so she had no leisure to watch the ball in the sun on a hot day.Besides, the final exam was coming soon. She hadn't seen a high school textbook in so many years, so she still didn't know how she would do in the exam. She had been cramming for the past few days, hoping that her transcript would look better.

Zhan Ping hugged her and acted coquettishly: "That nympho Jiang Lan will definitely go. Why don't you go with me? I tell you that your benefactor is very handsome when he plays ball."

Ni Manhua sighed and patted her gently with the formula sheet in his hand: "Before the final exam is over, no one will be as handsome as my homework."

But having said that, when school was over in the afternoon, Ni Manhua still went.

The bell rang for only two minutes, and three boys from Class 2 stood at the door and called her and Zhan Ping Jiang Lan's names. Ni Manhua couldn't stand the looks from all directions, so she hurriedly packed her schoolbag and went out to call them. Shut up.

She gradually grew into a calm and steady woman in trouble. She rarely encountered such embarrassing moments. When she stopped them, Ni Manhua finally felt that she had regained her 16-year-old self.In the past few days after she came back, her soul and body were always separated, and she couldn't even get used to seeing the green face in the mirror.But after meeting them, she seemed to have returned to her noisy, outspoken self.

A group of people walked toward the basketball court in a mighty manner. Wu Bo loved to show off, jumping and jumping as he walked, and sometimes made shooting gestures. He and Zhan Ping were walking in front and joking. Lin Xiang tilted his head and didn't know what he was saying to Jiang Lan. What, the remaining three people are following behind.

Luo Zeli didn't play, and asked Ni Manhua if he wanted to help them buy water together.Lu Guanhai pointed to Lin Xiang in front of him: "Go find Xiangzi, don't let girls carry water."

Luo Zheli adjusted his glasses and said, "Okay, you can be a good person and show kindness to others, while Xiangzi and I go buy water."

When Luo Zeli said this, he glanced at Ni Manhua and smiled ambiguously.

"I'll go with you." Ni Manhua didn't want them to misunderstand, so he accepted the job.This time, Lu Guanhai didn't say anything.

The canteen is only 100 meters away from the playground, but you have to queue during peak hours after school.Luo Zheli asked Ni Manhua if she wanted to wait aside for him to wait in line before calling her. Ni Manhua shook her head and said, "I'll choose with you. Zhan Ping and Jiang Lan don't like to drink water, so I'll buy them drinks and ice cream. "

"Okay." Luo Zeli was a very polite person. He stood beside Ni Manhua, keeping a distance of [-] centimeters from her.Among Lu Guanhai's brothers in the past, Ni Manhua liked to get along with him the most.I thought that I wouldn't have much communication with him, but I didn't expect Luo Zeli to ask her: "We met Zhan Ping and the others at the movie theater on Saturday, why weren't you there?"

Ni Manhua was stunned for a moment, then answered after a long time: "Something's wrong, what's the matter?"

"It's okay, just curious."
