Shi Xia chuckled and said, "How can I ask you to pay for it?"

Chengze said: "The seniors invited us last time, let me do it this time."

Shi Xia said: "You are only freshmen, and you are all responsible for the living expenses of your family. Every penny you spend will result in a penny less. I am different."

Cheng Xiaolan said in an admiring tone: "Does the senior earn his own living expenses? Or are you a rich second generation?"

Shi Xia took a sip of white wine and a confident smile appeared on his lips: "Both."

Zhang Fei nodded and praised: "Awesome, I thought that as a rich second generation, we still have to make our own money. Our family, Aze, is the only one."

Shi Xia paused. Looking at Cheng Ze's clothes, he thought he was a child from an ordinary family, but he didn't expect that he was also a rich second generation.

With such wealth and appearance, coupled with his gentle personality, men will probably be fascinated by him.

The feeling of disappointment at being compared to the younger generation only stayed on his face for a moment, and then it returned to its original state.

Chengze refilled Shi Xia's wine glass and said modestly: "Don't listen to his nonsense. I used to be a rich second generation, but not anymore. I usually use my expertise to earn some pocket money. It's the same as being a tutor. It's nothing."

Worth showing off."

Shi Xia asked him: "Is your family bankrupt?"

Chengze shook his head and replied: "My parents divorced, and I followed my mother."

His face was calm and his tone was as calm as if he was talking about someone else's family affairs.

"The conditions at Aunt'er's house are not bad either." Cheng Xiaolan muttered in a low voice.

"Almost all large families have marriages based on interests. If there is no benefit, they will break up. It's normal. For children, they can't live too badly with anyone." Shi Xia said and gave Xia Tian a piece of the mutton chops that had just been served.

.

"Thank you." Xia Tian ate silently, remembering that too much words will lead to mistakes.

"So you like to eat skewers. If I had known, I would have taken you to have barbecue at noon." Chengze tilted his head and leaned gently towards Xia Tian.

There was a light scent of perfume on his body, which made Xia Tian clearly know that these people were children raised in wealthy families, and they were not from the same family as him.

It's best not to think about things that don't belong to you in the first place.

Xia Tian moved the bowl and chopsticks to the side.

"Senior, are you angry with me?" Chengze asked anxiously when he saw that Xia Tian was deliberately alienating himself.

This is such a strange question. Didn't you come back with a cold face all the way? Why are you so angry now?

Xia Tian glanced at Chengze in confusion, not wanting to discuss what happened between them at all, nor did he want to guess how much truth or lies behind Chengze's gentle face.

"You're thinking too much." Xia Tian replied indifferently.

"Hey, why did you offend others?" Zhang Fei asked curiously.

"I was distracted for a moment." Chengze said simply.

Zhang Fei smiled, as if he could see Chengze's expression at that time.

After a few people finished eating and walked out of the restaurant, they felt the cold wind blowing.

Xia Tian crossed her arms tightly.

Chengze took off his coat and put it on Xia Tian.

"No need." Xia Tian wanted to return it to him.

"Need." Chengze reached out and put the hood of his coat on Xia Tian's head, not avoiding suspicion at all, "You sweat a lot, and you can easily catch a cold due to the wind."

"Hey, your cousin is exposed to the cold wind here." Cheng Xiaolan gave her a cold look.

Cheng Ze raised his chin, alluding to her side.

Zhang Fei took off his coat and wrapped Cheng Xiaolan: "My princess, will this make it less cold?"

Shi Xia was extremely upset because he went out without wearing a coat.

Several people came to a fork in the road, Xia Tian said: "Senior Shi, goodbye."

Shi Xia said: "I'll take you downstairs."

Chengze took a step forward and said, "I'll take her back."

Xia Tian took off his coat and gave it to Chengze, saying, "I'll go back by myself. I'll be there in a few steps. Goodbye." He waved stiffly to them, and then hurriedly disappeared into the night.

Xia Tian actually doesn't like people paying attention to her, because she knows that she is a boring person, and she looks like a stranger, so no one will be interested in a girl like her.

If so, there are two possibilities, either you want to try the taste of vegetarian food, or you feel that girls like Xia Tian are simple and easy to deceive, and will be easier to get rid of after enough fun.

"Did you go to have hot pot with Senior Shi?" Jin Yan lay on the bed, removed the book, and asked her with half of her face exposed.

"I just had something to eat at the skewers shop in front of the school." Xia Tian picked up the T-shirt and smelled it, "It smells really good."

The clothes were soaked in a basin filled with half a bag of laundry detergent. Xia Tian rubbed them vigorously, trying to remove the smell of fried skewers and the smell of perfume on Narita's coat.

I kept tidying up until 10 o'clock before falling on the bed.

I opened WeChat and found several new messages.

9:10: "Has senior sister returned to the dormitory safely?"

9:30: "Senior, are you asleep?"

9:50: "I ate too much and ran a few laps in the playground before I came back."

Now: "I'll wait for you downstairs in your dormitory tomorrow morning, okay?"

Xia Tian sat upright suddenly and looked at the sender's information. It was a person named "Dabai".

But no matter how hard Xia Tian racked his brains, he couldn't remember when he added this "Dabai". He zoomed in on this person's profile picture and saw a boy wearing black Hanfu, sitting in the green bamboo forest playing the guzheng.

He lowered his head and lowered his eyes, his face was as white as jade, and he seemed to be indifferent to the world.

Guzheng!

Xia Tian suddenly thought of a person - Chengze!

"Dabai" didn't send any more messages. Xia Tian was uneasy. If he didn't figure it out, he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

She quietly got out of bed and gently pushed Jin Yan, who was already sleeping soundly.

"Yanyan, what is Chengze's WeChat nickname?"

"Well..." Jin Yan turned over and murmured, "Dabai..."

It seems that when he bought the mobile phone, Chengze had already added Xia Tian's WeChat account. No matter what his purpose was, Xia Tian felt disgusted.

Where Chengze is, the surroundings are magnificent and colorful, and people's faces will not change, so Xia Tian can't guess Chengze's purpose of doing this, and naturally can't tell his attitude towards herself.

Do you like it or just play it?

Maybe it's neither. The school boss wouldn't like an ordinary person like her, let alone playing. Do they have that much free time?

"Good morning, senior." As soon as Xia Tian stepped out of the dormitory building, Cheng Ze greeted him.

He was wearing casual clothes and a black baseball cap on his head. His black hair above his ears was pressed back by the hat. He looked clean and energetic.

"Are you okay if you haven't slept?" Chengze pointed at Xia Tian's eyes with his slender fingers, "There are dark circles under the eyes."

How can I possibly sleep well when you send me such a message?

Xia Tian thought about it all night, but still didn't understand Chengze's intention of approaching her like this. After all possibilities were rejected one by one, the morning light had already spilled in through the curtains.

"Why are you here?" After a while, students would come out one after another. Xia Tian didn't want to be the object of everyone's discussion, so he walked forward quickly, as if he was rushing for an exam.

"Didn't I say last night that I would wait for you here this morning?" Cheng Ze followed him in a few steps.

"Why are you waiting for me?" Xia Tian deliberately chose a place with few people to walk.

"I want to have breakfast with you, senior, go to the cafeteria and walk this way." Naruse pulled her cuffs.

Xia Tian moved several steps to the side as if she was electrocuted. There was a small pond behind her, which was reflected in the early morning and rippled by the cool breeze of early autumn.

"Why do you want to have breakfast with me?"

It's better to ask questions directly than to make guesses.

"I just want to eat with you, what's the problem?"

Chengze squatted down, picked up a small stone, and threw it toward the water. The stone jumped forward on the water...

"There's a problem. I don't want to have breakfast with you, and I don't want to be friends with you."

"Why? You don't have any other friends besides Jin Yan, right?"

"..."

Over the past five years, Xia Tian has become accustomed to studying alone, living alone, and planning the future alone.

On the road to the future, I am the only one.

No matter who breaks in halfway, Xia Tian will send the other party to a fork in the road, and even refuses to say "goodbye".

Gradually, others will label her as "unsociable" and "alternative".

But Xia Tian doesn't care.
