Chapter 40
Chen Yan didn't know what the dispute was between Cheng Luoluo and Gu Moran. He only knew that the girl named Cheng Luoluo caused Lu Lin to miss class for a week.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Chen Yan shrank his neck in the cold. He looked at Gu Moran and Lu Lin in the alley and said, "Let's go quickly. If we keep talking, the snow will drown us later."
"
Gu Moran hummed, and she turned around and walked quickly towards the entrance of the alley.
Originally there was only a thin layer of snow on the ground, but now it has thickened and covered the previous road surface, making a creaking sound when stepped on.
Gu Moran put her hands into her down jacket pockets. She especially liked snowy days, especially those after school in her youth.
Listening to Chen Yan and Lu Lin talking behind her, Gu Moran's mind couldn't help but be pulled back to eight years ago, when she was not yet a senior in high school, and it was also the year when she secretly fell in love with Lu Lin.
In fact, it's not that Gu Moran never thought of confessing her feelings, but the words she mustered up a lot of courage to write on the snow that time were covered up by the heavy snow. Unfortunately, Lu Lin didn't see it either.
She had agreed to go to the school playground with Lu Lin that day, but Lu Lin had a fever that was so severe that he became unconscious. His classmates took him to the infirmary and gave him an IV.
When Lu Lin regained consciousness, he frantically said he was going to the playground, and wanted to take a medicine bottle and give him an IV while he went, but because he was so weak, he was pinned down on the bed by his classmates.
When Gu Moran learned about this later, she wanted to cry and laugh at the same time. She thought maybe it was fate but not fate.
At first, Gu Moran wanted to just stay by Lu Lin's side silently, even as a friend. But when he heard that Lu Lin had a girl he liked, Gu Moran realized that he simply couldn't do it.
Maybe it was because she liked Lu Lin so much that she couldn't help but watch him fall in love with someone else, let alone bless him.
The sudden thought of the past made Gu Moran feel very uncomfortable. She turned back to look at Lu Lin who was walking behind her.
Just looking at it this way, no matter the voice, appearance, or even body shape and posture, they are exactly the same. In fact, there have been many moments, including this moment, Gu Moran almost thought that he was the Lu Lin in his memory.
.
After Chen Yan noticed that Gu Moran turned around and stared at his good brother, he deliberately clenched his fist and put it to his mouth, coughed slightly, and then asked teasingly: "Hey, what are you looking at us for? Could it be that he's taken a liking to one of us?"
Who's there?"
Gu Mo Ran came back to his senses and turned his head back in panic, not daring to reply.
Then Lu Lin's low voice came from behind, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense."
Gu Moran really felt a little embarrassed. When she arrived at the bus stop, she didn't say a word to either of them, fearing that Chen Yan would bring back the topic just now.
Next to Gu Moran stood a woman in her thirties and a naughty little boy.
The boy squatted down and grabbed the snow on the ground to play with. When the woman saw it, she said angrily: "Get up quickly. If you stop playing in the snow, my mother won't take you home."
The boy was not obedient at all, and retorted in a milky tone: "If you don't take it, don't take it. I'll see how you explain it to grandma when you get home. Grandma loves me so much, and she will definitely blame you. You will have to come back to find me then."
I."
Listening to the conversation between this child and his mother, you can tell without guessing that he was spoiled by his grandma.
The woman didn't care when she saw this.
The little boy quickly pinched a snowball, then stood up, raised his arm, and hit the snowball directly on the hair of Gu Moran next to him.
Gu Moran felt her head go cold. She lowered her head and looked at the boy beside her, then raised her hand to remove the snow from her hair.
The woman didn't notice this scene at all and was currently playing with her phone with her head down.
After feeling Gu Moran's gaze, the boy stuck out his tongue playfully: "If you are not a pretty sister, you should be smashed."
The woman put away the phone in her hand, grabbed the boy's arm, and apologized to Gu Moran in a panic: "Don't worry about the child being ignorant, Haohao, hurry up and apologize to your sister."
The boy continued to make naughty moves and continued to say very rudely: "I don't want to apologize. Mom, didn't you teach me to tell the truth? My sister is not beautiful."
The woman raised her hand and patted the boy's back, her eyes sparkling with anger.
"Who taught you to be so rude? Seeing how your grandma has used you, I will ask your grandma to move back to your hometown tomorrow." After the woman finished speaking, she made a move to make a phone call.
The boy began to make trouble unreasonably, fighting for the woman's mobile phone, and howled: "I won't, I won't, I want grandma, I won't allow you to drive grandma back to your hometown, I won't allow it!"
The woman was so angry that she put her cell phone in her pocket and hit the boy on the back.
Lu Lin was very close to Gu Moran, and happened to see the scene just now. He frowned slightly, and just as he was about to walk over, he heard Gu Moran respond: "Auntie, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt anyway.
Stop hitting him."
The woman stopped what she was about to do and looked up at Gu Moran in embarrassment. She was still apologizing: "Classmate, I'm really sorry just now. It's all my fault that I didn't pay much attention to him at work in the past few years. His grandma has given up on his children."
He's spoiled, so don't take what he says to heart."
Gu Moran pretended to smile indifferently, and then responded "Okay."
Chen Yan, who was standing next to Lu Lin, also saw the whole process and suddenly looked at Gu Moran with admiration. He raised his arm and put it on Lu Lin's shoulder and said, "What you said is indeed right. I only recently discovered that Gu Moran
This guy is really nice."
Lu Lin turned to look at Chen Yan, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and after a long time he said: "Nonsense."
–
It was almost completely dark the day after getting off the bus. Except for the cars passing by, the rest of the place was completely white. Gu Moran took a deep breath and walked on the thick snow. She listened carefully to the sound coming from the soles of her shoes.
Creaking sound.
Lu Lin suddenly said: "You seem to like snowy days."
Gu Moran nodded vigorously, curled his neck and responded happily: "I have loved it since I was a child. I also like to make snowmen and have snowball fights. It's a pity that I am older now. It would be too childish to have snowball fights like I did when I was a child."
When Gu Moran said these words, he unconsciously reflected his age in real life. He has already graduated from college and has been working for several years. He is indeed not young.
Lu Lin stopped, squatted down with his slender body, then stretched out his big hands into the snow, grabbed a handful of clean snow, and squeezed the snow into balls with both hands.
After Gu Moran discovered that Lu Lin beside her was missing, she suddenly stopped and looked back, only to see Lu Lin pinching a snowball.
Lu Lin pinched several snowballs before he stood up. He looked at Gu Moran not far away and returned to the previous topic: "It's okay, we are not adults yet."
Gu Moran's pupils shrank, and before she could react, Lu Lin had already thrown a snowball at her, and the snowball hit her arm hard.
Then there was a second and third snowball, and Gu Moran reacted quickly and got out of the way.
Gu Moran was inexplicably brought into a snowball fight state by Lu Lin. She happily bent down and picked up a large handful of snow even if her hands were cold. After a few seconds, she smashed it into a very loose snowball.
What a coincidence, the snowball just hit Lu Lin's chin. Fortunately, the snowball was not strong and fell apart as soon as it hit.
Just when Gu Moran was worried about whether he would be in pain, Lu Lin threw the remaining two in his hand and Gu Moran dodged them one by one.
Because Gu Moran and Lu Lin were so excited about playing, they ignored the strange looks and cars passing by nearby. They didn't even notice that Gu's father was standing not far away. It seemed like they were the only two people left in the whole world.
.
Originally, his hands and feet were prone to coldness, and now the backs of his hands were red and red from the cold, but Gu Moran had no intention of stopping, and his palms were quite warm after holding the snow.
A few minutes ago, Father Gu, who had just got off the employee bus not far away, was stunned because he seemed to have seen his daughter. Father Gu held the bag he was carrying at work in his arms. He stopped and looked carefully.
Two students having a snowball fight.
No matter how you look at the back, he looks like Gu Moran. Father Gu also recognized the boy. He lives in the next street. Father Gu has heard from Mother Gu that the two children know each other.
He knew that Mother Gu was afraid that the two children would fall in love prematurely or have unrequited love after being together for a long time.
But Gu's father was not worried at all. He felt that this was how young people should be. The purest feelings were in high school, especially when love was just beginning. Gu's father still had an aunt's smile on his face and stared at them blankly for a few minutes.
Walk.
Gu Moran and Lu Lin had a snowball fight for more than ten minutes. Almost all the clean and untrodden snow on the nearby roadside was finished by the two of them, and there were even a few pieces that could barely be seen on the ground.
Gu Mo Ran rubbed his two red hands, put them to his mouth, breathed hot air and blew on it, then looked at him and said, "Lu Lin, let's go home quickly, it's getting late."
"Okay, let's go home for dinner." After saying this, Lu Lin stepped up his long legs and walked to Gu Moran's side in a few steps.
Then they walked side by side towards the street of their home.
More and more snowflakes were falling, and before they even reached the corner, their hair had turned white, probably because they had stood under the snow for too long during the snowball fight.
Gu Moran glanced at Lu Lin's legs next to him and noticed that there was snow on his trouser legs, and the brand-name shoes he was wearing were almost soaked through the snow.
Soon he reached the alley where Lu Lin's house was, and he stopped.
"I heard it will snow again tomorrow."
Gu Moran also stopped, raised his head and looked at Lu Lin's face that was slightly rosy from the cold, and responded happily: "It's going to snow tomorrow, that's great, um, you go home for dinner quickly, otherwise Auntie
It’s time to wait.”
He said: "You too."
Gu Mo nodded vigorously and left before Lu Lin could turn the corner first. Gu Moran was really afraid that Gu's mother would suspect something, so she hurried home and brushed the snow off her hair before entering the house.
Sure enough, as soon as I entered the door and before I had changed into my slippers, I heard Gu's mother asking: "Ran Ran, why are you walking so slowly on the road? Your dad came home just now and said he seemed to have seen you."
Gu Moran suddenly felt guilty. She glanced at Father Gu who was looking at his cell phone in the living room, and lied in a low voice: "My dad may have seen it wrong."
