Reborn back to college to have a love affair

Arriving at the cafeteria, the two went straight to the second floor.

We came early, so the cafeteria wasn't crowded. Many dishes had just been cooked.

Xia Qing ordered a rice bowl with grass carp oil and lettuce, and Jiang Shao ordered a spicy shrimp rice bowl.

Then the two of them ordered a bowl of pork ribs and yam soup, a serving of xiaolongbao and a glutinous rice cake dessert.

The food portions in northern schools are large.

A rice bowl was a large plate, which Xia Qing couldn’t finish, but Jiang Shao had a big appetite, and one portion was sometimes not enough, so he also ordered a serving of dumplings.

Xia Qing randomly chose a table and sat down, eating quietly.

"Would you like to try this Xiaolongbao? The skin is super soft and the filling is delicious too."

Without waiting for Xia Qing to refuse, Jiang Shao had already handed the steamed bun to Xia Qing's mouth with chopsticks. Xia Qing looked at the soft and white bun, took a bite, and tasted salty and fragrant.

"Hmm, delicious," Xia Qing said as she chewed.

"You like it? Then I'll give you all the buns if you eat them."

"I can't even finish this huge rice bowl, so you eat it."

"Isn't your rice bowl fishy? I just can't understand stir-frying fish and vegetables together."

Seeing his unacceptable expression, I decided to tease him.

She scooped a large spoonful of dace oil lettuce with a spoon and handed it to Jiang Shao's mouth, "Come on~~ah~~open your mouth"

Jiang Shao really didn't want to eat it, so he leaned back to avoid it.

"Come on~ah~"

Jiang Shao leaned back as far as possible to avoid it.

"Hmph, you won't eat even if I feed you," Xia Qing pretended to be angry.

Slowly retract the hand holding the spoon.

Although he knew that Xia Qing might be joking, it was his first time feeding it after all, so he thought it could be considered a small interaction between lovers.

He turned back, held her retreating hand, lowered his head and tried to endure the fishy smell before eating.

Xia Qing was caught off guard and took back the spoon with her free hand and fed the rice into her mouth.

"Forget it, I won't feed you anymore. I won't force you."

"No, no, no, baby, feed it again, I want to eat it."

"No, why eat it if you don't like it? I don't force others to have hobbies."

"No, I haven't eaten it before. I want to try this flavor today." "Baby, feed me! Everything you feed me will taste good."

Xia Qing was amused by his look and said, "Eat it yourself."

"Hey!"

Seeing people slowly coming around, Xia Qing stopped teasing him, picked up a steamed bun with chopsticks and handed it to Jiang Shao's mouth.

"Come, I'll feed you what you like. If you don't like it, don't force yourself. I won't be unhappy. I'm just teasing you."

Jiang Shao was about to speak while chewing the dumplings.

"Wow~, my brother Jiang Shao has made it big. He even has to be fed by his girlfriend~"

Taozi came to Jiang Shao and teased him before he even sat down.

"Come, come here, sit here, this is Jiang Shao's girlfriend Xia Qing." "Xia Qing, this is my girlfriend Li Lili." Seeing Taozi calling a girl over, Xia Qing turned around and saw a girl dressed fashionably walking towards her with a tray of food.

The girl was quite tall, about 167cm. Xia Qing took the initiative to greet her, "Hello."

"Hello," Li Lili replied unenthusiastically.

Xia Qing didn't care. At this time, Li Chao sat on the other side of them across the aisle.

After they arrived, only Taozi kept talking. Xia Qing was not used to chatting with people she was not familiar with. Taozi and Li Chao, who were more familiar with her, were of the opposite sex, so they had no topics to talk about, especially in front of her boyfriend.

Xia Qing just kept eating.

"The pork rib soup is no longer hot, you can drink it now, drink it quickly." At this time, Jiang Shao reminded Xia Qing to drink the soup while Taozi was chattering.

"okay"

"I can't finish this bowl." Xia Qing was a little full.

"Drink as much as you want and give me the rest." Jiang Shao said without much concern.

"Oh, look at how annoying Jiang Shao and Xia Qing are. Lily, come and drink my soup." Taozi couldn't help teasing again.

"Whoever wants to drink what you have left, drink it yourself."

Xia Qing felt that Lily's voice was very special, as if she had heard it somewhere before, but she couldn't remember where.

She felt that having a boyfriend like Taozi, who was as funny as him, would make her happy every day.

"Jiang Shao, congratulations on having a girlfriend," Li Lili said to Jiang Shao.

"Thank you," Jiang Shao responded casually.

"Hey~hey, let's eat~eat. We have an exam in the afternoon." Taozi said and started to tease his girlfriend to eat.

Everyone finished their meal amidst Taozi's funny antics and laughter.

Jiang Shao wants to send Xia Qing back to the South Courtyard.

Xia Qing refused.

"I'm also a student of this school. I'm so familiar with my school, I don't need you to send me off. You go back, I'll walk on my own."

"Okay, I'll watch you go."

Xia Qing walked out of the north courtyard gate and waited for the traffic light to cross the road.

"Junior sister, what a coincidence."

Xia Qing turned around. It was Senior Gao Peng. Ever since her failed confession on that snowy night, Xia Qing hadn't seen Senior Gao Peng in a long time. The two of them tacitly agreed not to go to the study room where they might run into each other.

Xia Qing no longer tried to meet Gao Peng by chance during class. She realized that two people could be very close or very far away.

If no one deliberately tries to bring the two closer together, they may not meet each other for a long time.

"Senior, what a coincidence." Xia Qing looked at Gao Peng and spoke to him with a smile. She thought that it didn't matter if they couldn't be lovers, they could still try to be senior and junior brothers and sisters.

After all, there was nothing between the two of them.

"Why are you in the North Courtyard? Aren't you taking the exam in the South Courtyard?" Gao Peng looked at the girl who once liked him.

"Oh, I came to the North Court to have dinner with my friends. Where's your brother? Are you going to the South Court?"

"Oh, I'm going to eat at the food stall across the street. I thought it was fate that I met you, so I'd like you to come with me." Gao Peng looked at Xia Qing, his voice gentle and smiling, but something flickered in his eyes.

"Thank you, brother. I've already eaten. Hey, the light is green, let's go over there quickly!"

Walking across the sidewalk, the two parted ways.

"Brother, please go eat quickly. It might be hard to find a seat if there are too many people."

"Yeah, okay, you should go back as well."

The two of them walked away in two different directions with their backs facing each other.

Suddenly, Xia Qing seemed to remember something, turned around and shouted "Senior Brother!"

Gao Peng turned around upon hearing the voice, and doubts gradually arose in his mind.

Suddenly, Xia Qing came forward and said with a smile, "Brother, I wish you success in the postgraduate entrance examination."

Since we don’t meet often, I originally wanted to send him a message to cheer him up. Now that we’ve met, it would be more sincere to say it in person than just sending a random text message.

"Goodbye, senior brother. Keep up the good work." After waving his hand, Xia Qing really left this time.

Gao Peng watched Xia Qing walk towards him with a smile, watched her sincerely bless him, and then watched her smile and wave goodbye.

In an instant, a suffocating sadness spread throughout my body and finally tightened in my heart.

He realized that he seemed to have lost something very important, something he once owned, something that was once within his reach.

In the end, he still lost the girl who smiled brightly at him, the girl who looked up at him tenderly.

He actually knew all about those cautious approaches and the sparkling expectations in her eyes, but he was afraid that he could not return that kind of enthusiasm, so he chose to refuse and escape. He rejected and avoided that sincere feeling under the pretext of giving priority to studying.

Yes, he lost them all.

In fact, he didn't come out to eat at all.

He had already eaten in the cafeteria, and of course he saw her and the boy's laughter and the affection between the lovers.

He didn't dare to disturb.

He could only watch secretly from a distance.

Watching her smile at him, watching her walk out of his sight.

Still unwilling to give up, he finally chased out.

I looked at her, but didn't know where to start.

Poor hello.

In the end, he and she drifted further and further apart.

But that girl is still as sunny as ever, and still so kind and gentle to me who had hurt her.

The cold of winter was not as chilling as the panic in his heart.
