Chapter 9

When Luo Ling woke up, he was the only one left in the room.He looked at the ceiling above his head, and it took him a while to realize that this was not his dormitory. As soon as he got up and got out of bed, he found a note on the desk with a line of crappy Chinese characters written crookedly on it:

"The music score has been sent to your mobile phone. If you can't use it, I will help you find a way."

Seeing this, Luo Ling immediately picked up his phone to check it, and then ran out of the room.

As soon as Higashino Shizuru came to the classroom today, he felt that the atmosphere in the class was a bit weird.The girls, in particular, seemed to have lost their former restraint overnight, and behaved proactively and enthusiastically. As soon as the first class was over, they all gathered around his desk.

"Dongye, why are you the only one coming to school today? Where is Luo Ling? Why isn't he with you?" A girl suddenly asked without thinking.

"He...doesn't seem to be with me every day, does he?" Facing this abrupt question, Shizuru Higashino was a little confused, and after a long while, he finally came up with a sentence.

"Aren't you together all the time?"

"Yeah, it's just inseparable."

"I heard that you and him have known each other since childhood? Is it true?"

"No wonder the relationship is so good, it turns out they are childhood sweethearts!"

"Boys and girls are called childhood sweethearts, and they should be called bamboo horses."

"Can you tell us something about your childhood?"

"Yeah, how did you know each other?"

"You came to our school because of him, right?"

Girls, you said one sentence, I said one sentence, chattering non-stop, completely dazed Higashino Shizuru, and was thinking about which question to start answering, but Luo Ling just appeared at the door of the classroom.The girls' reaction was like pouring a ladle of water into a hot oil pan, and it exploded immediately!

"You're popular!" Luo Ling leaned against the railing of the corridor, casually watching Shizuru Higashino struggling to squeeze out from the crowd of girls.The morning sun shone on his snow-white shirt, outlining a refreshing outline.

Higashino Shizuru ignored his teasing, and after taking a long breath, he asked, "Have you received the score I sent you?"

"Received. You are really good. I haven't found it all night. How did you find it?"

"That song is really hard to find. I still asked a senior in Japan to find it. But it was too late yesterday, so he can only send me a photo. If I don't know anything, I will ask him to FAX it." Come here."

"No, that's clear enough, thanks."

"Why are you being polite to me?"

"Oh, what are you doing today? If it's okay, let's go play ball together after school?"

"Okay."

"See you on the basketball court after school, see you soon!"

Higashino Shizuru nodded, and when he turned around, he saw the girls in the class rushing away like birds and beasts, with bewildered smiles on their faces.

The basketball court after school is always lively.As long as there are boys who come to play, there are girls who come to watch the game.Whenever there is a wonderful pitch on the field, it always attracts excited screams and applause from the girls.However, the girls in the stands today were a little excited.

"Haozi, are you calling these girls?" Luo Ling thought it was Liu Hao's good deed again.

"If I called you, would I still be able to dress like this?" Liu Hao tugged on his ugliest pair of shit-yellow sweatpants aggrievedly.

"Otherwise it's you?" Luo Ling looked at Shen Sa again.

"Heaven and earth conscience, I didn't do anything!" Shen Sa wanted to say but dared not, and glanced at Wang Siyuan with a guilty conscience, but Wang Siyuan seemed as if nothing had happened, concentrating on warming up on the sidelines.

"Then why are there so many people here? Isn't it a sports meeting?" Luo Ling said to himself, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"You said these people really came to see Luo Ling and Dong Ye?" Shen Sa approached Fang Jianyue and asked softly.

"Is it still to see you?" Fang Jianyue asked back.

"But is it necessary to be so exaggerated?" Seeing the situation outside the field, Shen Sa was a little surprised.

"Don't you know? Girls are even more crazy than boys."

"I think almost the whole school knows about it now, but the two of them are still kept in the dark. Hey, do you think we should tell Luo Ling?"

Fang Jianyue let out a sigh of relief, "The best way to deal with rumors is to treat them as if they don't exist at all. The more you take it seriously, the more serious it becomes. Besides, didn't you see the calm face of the boss? ?”

"What are you two muttering about? Are you still playing?" Liu Hao urged impatiently.

Shen Sa threw the ball up vigorously, and the game started.

The boys played three-on-one basketball, with six players divided into exactly two teams.Wang Siyuan, Luo Ling and Dongye Jingxian are on the team, Fang Jianyue is on the team, Shen Sa and Liu Hao are on the team.The two teams played very well. They were evenly matched for a while, and the scores were evenly matched.

"Zero!" Higashino Jingxuan spotted a gap between Shen Sa and Fang Jianyue, and quickly passed the ball to Luo Ling who was closest to the basketball hoop.Luo Ling quickly caught the ball, and a beautiful dunk immediately elicited screams from outside the court.Higashino Shizuru happily stepped forward to give him a high-five to celebrate, and the girls outside the court immediately shouted louder.At the beginning, the boys thought that they were so excited because someone scored a goal, but gradually they realized that this was not the case.

"Those girls are in your class?" During the break, Luo Ling glanced at the girls not far away strangely, opened a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Dongye Jingxian.

"A few are, but I don't know the others." Dongye Jingxian wiped the sweat off his face, took a sip of the water, and then handed it back to Luo Ling. Luo Ling picked up the water and naturally Then he took a sip, and unexpectedly, such a simple action elicited screams from the girls.

"What's going on? I didn't see them so excited during the school basketball game?" Luo Ling frowned suspiciously.

Higashino Shizuru smiled helplessly, and made an equally inexplicable expression.

"See, those people came to see Luo Ling and Dongye." Zhang Xiaoai stopped, looked at the basketball court not far away and said sourly, "now things about them are rumored in the school. crazy!"

"Isn't it just a photo? What's the fuss?" Xinya said disapprovingly, looking in the direction of the court.

"You're really calm, aren't you afraid it's true?"

"Do you believe it's true?"

"Of course I don't believe it!" Zhang Xiaoai said without thinking, "How could Dongye be such a person?"

"That's fine."

"However, it's always not good for this kind of thing to go around in the school, isn't it? You, the chairman of the student union, don't care about it?" Zhang Xiaoai complained.

"It's not easy? Hurry up and get Dongye, and the rumors will naturally disappear."

"Oh, don't mention it." Zhang Xiaoai suddenly sighed.

"what happened?"

"It's impossible for me and him."

"why?"

"He doesn't meet my criteria."

"Which one doesn't fit?"

"He's a Sagittarius."

"Hey, you don't really believe in those supernatural things, do you?" Xin Ya looked at her in surprise, "Don't tell me you need to check if his horoscope matches yours when you find a boyfriend in the future?"

"Haven't you understood?" Zhang Xiaoai looked at Xin Ya and said reluctantly, "He is younger than me!"

Xin Ya was stunned for a long time, and then she realized that she couldn't help laughing, "Just because of this?"

"Isn't this enough?"

"What's the matter? Isn't sibling love popular now?"

"No, I can't violate my principles." Zhang Xiaoai seemed not in the mood to joke, biting her lip.

"Hey, don't you understand?" Xin Ya put her arms around her shoulders, and said earnestly, like someone who has experienced it, "Everything in this world can be based on principles, except feelings. Or to put it another way, There is only one principle in the emotional world, that is whether you like him or not."

"What about you? Do you like Luo Ling?"

As soon as Zhang Xiaoai finished speaking, the smile on Xin Ya's face disappeared immediately.She let go of Zhang Xiaoai's shoulders and walked forward silently.At this time, there was another burst of cheers from the other side of the stadium, as if someone had scored again.

Maybe everyone has a mirror in their eyes, they can only see others, but never see themselves.

An ordinary day passed in an unusual atmosphere. It was not until dinner that Shizuru Higashino finally understood what was going on.When he stared dumbfounded at the photo on Luo Ling's phone, he had no idea when he was secretly photographed.

"It wasn't yesterday we were in study room..., where did you get that?"

"Siyuan sent it to me. It turns out that these guys knew about it a long time ago, but they kept holding back." Luo Ling cursed casually, but he didn't seem really angry.

Higashino Shizuru couldn't help but glanced at the photo on the phone again.Maybe it's a problem with the shooting angle, the whole picture does look a bit ambiguous, coupled with the text on the top of the picture, it's no wonder that it makes people think about it.

"Who took this?"

"I don't know, but I think this person has potential. You see, this is not only a sneak shot, but also a sneak shot. It is already very impressive to be able to shoot at this level. Hey, take a look at the comments below. Interesting!" Luo Ling pointed to the phone with great interest.

Higashino Shizuru hurriedly looked down after listening, only to find that this news has been reposted more than 200 times since it was released.

"What a god! Who can tell me what the hell is going on!"

"I was so excited to see this early in the morning! Who took this picture? Please accept my knee!"

"The picture is so beautiful, does the poster have a visual sense?"

"Do you want to match it like this? It's from the hair to the toe!"

"What's the fuss? It's not a day or two between them."

"Did you forget to take your medicine when you went out today?"

"It has been seen that they have a problem."

"During the last voluntary activity, Luo Ling almost died trying to save Dongye. If this is not true love, what is it?"

"It's all right now, two rivals are missing all of a sudden. Sneak. Smile."

"Is this all the publisher's own YY ​​come out? The two of them are definitely just ordinary friends. Please stay calm and look at this matter rationally, and don't spread such malicious rumors again."

"Where is the malice? Why didn't I see it."

"Malicious! Your mother told you to go home for dinner!!"

"My God!"

"Girls, don't be sad, come on if you want to cry! I provide broad shoulders, strong arms, and warm chests for free. The trial period is free. Monthly or yearly subscriptions are fine! This advertisement is valid for a long time."

"Go to hell!!"

"Rumors stop at the wise. Please stop spreading rumors. This will have a bad impact on both the parties and the school."

"Are you an undercover agent sent by the teaching office?"

"Am I the only one who thinks that the senior's hand is on Dongye's face? This is the rhythm of wanting to kiss! Oh, it can't be done, the blood tank is about to be empty."

"Where's the pressman? The organization needs you!"

"Honey, it's a matter of angle! But it's really interesting!"

"Do I want to set this photo as my phone's desktop?"

"Are you not afraid of being seen by your mother? But I will tell you that it is already my phone desktop? Hee hee!"

"So what if it's a real relationship? She's already slept in."

"What's the situation? Come out and speak clearly!!"

"What's the matter? My roommate and I have slept together before, and he got on and off. Hee hee, don't get it wrong, I'm talking about him getting on the bunk and I getting off the bunk."

"The more you talk, the less moral you are? How tall are you? Have you turned eighteen?"

.......

"What's all this nonsense?" There were still many comments, but Shizuku Higashino couldn't read it after reading two pages.But Luo Ling was not angry, instead he looked cheerful.

"stop laughing?"

"I think this photo is pretty good. I guess it was taken with an IPHONE? The worst is Samsung. But it's impossible? How could you be more handsome than me?"

"Can you be more serious? Delete it soon." Dongye Jingxian returned the phone to Luo Ling with a straight face.

"No, this is the only photo of me and you, and I still want to keep it as a souvenir. Do you want it? If so, I'll send it to you?"

"don't want!"

"Really not?"

Higashino Shizuru didn't want to talk to him anymore, she just lowered her head and ate dinner, but she almost threw up after taking the first bite.

"What is this? It's so bitter!" Even so, he swallowed the food in his mouth bravely, and then took a few mouthfuls of water.

"Fool, that's bitter melon, of course it's bitter!" Luo Ling couldn't help laughing.

"Bitter melon? I thought it was something similar to cucumber." After speaking, Higashino Shizuru carefully tasted the white rice on the plate, as if it also had a bitter taste on it.

"Eat my portion, I haven't moved yet." Luo Ling pushed his dinner plate in front of Shizuru Higashino as he spoke.

"No, I just don't want to eat this." Higashino Shizuru picked out the bitter gourds on the plate one by one and put them on the side of the plate.

"The school has a rule that credits will be deducted for wasting food." After Luo Ling finished speaking, he brought Higashino Shizuru's dinner plate over without any explanation, and then began to eat in big mouthfuls.

"Aren't you afraid of suffering?" Higashino Shizuru couldn't help being curious seeing him eating with such relish.

"Scared! But it depends on who is eating it for." Luo Ling raised his head, his eyes were clear and bright.

Shizuku Higashino couldn't help being stunned, and was at a loss for words for a moment.And Luo Ling continued to eat, as if nothing had happened.

"Uh... have you started composing?" Higashino Shizuru swallowed, and hurriedly found an irrelevant topic to cover up his embarrassment.

Luo Ling nodded, "I'm going to meet them in the piano room after dinner."

"Do you have any idea?"

"It would be much simpler if the key was not changed, but would it be too old-fashioned to keep using the original key?"

"How about C minor?" When it comes to music, Higashino Shizuru immediately becomes more at ease.

"C minor? It doesn't seem to be much worse, it still lacks some new ideas."

"You want something new, so try B-flat?"

"B flat? Well, it seems to be not bad."

"Not bad, I was joking with you!" Higashino Shizuru couldn't help laughing, and the previous unhappiness disappeared.
