Beauty across the cloud

=========================

Jin Lan was sitting on a bench outside the school lecture hall, holding a hamburger in his hand, still looking at his phone.

The time is relatively tight. He has to go back to the laboratory to collect the data on time, but he doesn't want to miss today's academic report, so he can only run at both ends.

School starts after the Lantern Festival, and the weather should gradually warm up, but those who live in it still feel chilly.Looking around the campus, the end of spring is probably a few jasmine flowers in the flower bed, and the yellow pistils like Xiaojiabiyu are dotted among the remaining branches that have not yet awakened.The willow trees have sprouted, but unfortunately the number is limited. From a close look, it is a layer of fluff, but from a distance, it is still dusty, which is not good.

People have not been liberated from winter clothes, so the whole campus is still dominated by white, gray and black, and the colors are simple and monotonous.Jin Lan chewed the lettuce and meat mechanically in his mouth, only felt that the world was vast, and he was alone in it.

"What are you thinking?" Xiaoyan came over and handed him a bottle of water.The two haven't seen each other for more than a month, and they only met today because of the report meeting.

Jin Lan looked away and took the water: "I wonder why the weather hasn't warmed up yet."

"Are you still cold after running twice?" Xiaoyan wanted to smoke, but put it away after thinking about it.

Jin Lan noticed his movements: "You have been a bit addicted to smoking recently."

"Yes."

"Give me one."

"……what?"

It's not that Jin Lan doesn't know how to smoke, but he seldom smokes.He wasn't addicted, but strangely enough, one always wants to smoke one at some point.

Xiaoyan's fingers were still in the coat pocket, and she was about to pull them out, but she couldn't help but startled when she heard this sentence.

"Have you been stressed recently?"

"Ah."

Xiaoyan then took out the cigarette case and lighter and threw them directly to Jin Lan.

Jin Lan took out one, and did not put it in his mouth immediately, but turned it lightly in his hand.His fingers were beautiful, without protruding knuckles, narrow and long, with neatly manicured nails.He looked down at the cigarette in his hand, and his eyelashes were thickly drawn down, blocking all emotions.

"Where did you get the pressure? Did you get scolded?" Xiaoyan was puzzled.There is indeed academic pressure, but it is not a matter of a day or two. It is rare to see Jin Lan in such a silent state.

It can only be for feelings.

After realizing this, Xiaoyan straightened up and turned her head away from Jin Lan.There was a bit of unknown coolness in the eyes that moved away.He didn't want to leave this chill to Jin Lan, so he had no choice but to stop looking at him.He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his chest heaved very slightly, intending to swallow and swallow all his emotions, just like what Jin Lan was doing at this moment.

It is indeed because of feelings.

After the "Flower Boat Parade" that day, Luo Weiqiu spoke according to the previous agreement.At the beginning, everyone took turns to play the accompaniment, and whoever could sing would turn on the mic. Jin Lan watched Luo Weiqiu's mic brighten and then dim.

At the beginning, everyone didn't do it on purpose, but someone saw the screenshots on the forum, and soon realized who Luo Weiqiu said he was singing tonight, and gradually developed a tacit understanding to tease him. People turn on the microphone one after another, but they are not given a chance to speak.

In the end, the child was in a hurry, but he turned on the microphone and said: "If this continues, I will not be able to sing."

Everyone immediately burst into laughter in the voice room.

Luoluo kindly played a nursery rhyme for him.

Regarding this, Luo Weiqiu said: "After a while, I will go to the game to hunt you down."

In the end, the trouble was over, and everyone quieted down tacitly. Luo Weiqiu felt embarrassed instead.He hesitated.

And Jin Lan imagined whether Luo Weiqiu was scratching his head helplessly at this moment, so he felt it was even more funny, but when he looked down, he found that the private chat channel was flickering.

[Private chat] [Sisi] Then I sang?

[Private Chat] [Mochizuki] Sing

[Private chat] [Sisi] Actually, I

Before he finished speaking, Jin Lan seemed to have anticipated his next sentence, and answered directly:

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t sing well

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] I think people who sing a little out of tune are also very attractive

Luo Weiqiu really believed it.

This coaxing words only work for Luo Weiqiu.

Jin Lan was in front of the computer, propping her chin with her hands.No one could see, but he smiled, just because he was really happy at the moment.

His eyes are full of broken stars.

Sing it, sing it, no matter it's good or bad, no matter it's ugly or not, all standards in the world don't apply to it, just because it's a song for you and me.

Luo Weiqiu had no accompaniment, and he sang an English song.His voice is not hoarse, but always low.This song has a relatively high pitch, and he even had to clear his throat several times before singing, and he had to hang his throat lightly to sing up, but it has a different kind of clear meaning, like the mountain cedar The taste is thick and fresh.

"Why is it an English song?" Luoluo was still teasing him: "No, I don't understand, it's in Chinese."

Even if no one was watching, Luo Weiqiu blushed.He misunderstood Luo Luo's meaning and mistakenly thought that she wanted to listen to the Chinese version of the song, so he was in a hurry and argued, "But the Chinese version..."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Luoluo's voice became louder.

"Chinese version..." He hesitated again and again: "I can't sing."

It turned out that there were several "loveyou" in this song, and when translated into Chinese, he had to say "love you" several times in a row, so he felt embarrassed.

Luo Luo Miao understood, and said maliciously: "Okay, okay, I'll let you two talk in private, hey, I understand."

"What do you know?" Luo Weiqiu's raised voice sank again.

"I understand what you're thinking!"

There was laughter again.

Well, it's very difficult to gain the upper hand in an argument with Luoluo.

The people in the room are all old members of the gang, and they treat Luo Weiqiu like a child who has grown up, and now they can see that he has settled down, everyone is very happy.

Someone made a fuss and asked Jin Lan to open the mic to say something, Luo Weiqiu immediately defended her shortcomings: "She... forget it."

"Oh, is he thinner than you?" Someone interrupted.

"No way."

"Is this admitting that I have a thin skin?"

"...It's up to you." Luo Weiqiu felt a little helpless, but didn't get angry.He was also happy in his heart. If it was to protect the people he cared about, then he felt that he should stand in front.

Whether it's joking or booing, he's not good at dealing with this kind of situation, but at this moment he has a response.He guessed that Mochizuki was a shy and showy girl, and it was better not to let the "fire of war" spread to her.

As for himself, what's the point of bearing a little more?

Looking at Mochizuki's head, he asked himself that everything was worth it.

Although, that's just a gray system default avatar.

Talking, laughing and making a fuss, Jin Lan listened quietly with a smile, listening to how Luo Weiqiu answered every ridicule for him with stumbles.It wasn't until after eleven o'clock that everyone said good night one after another, and they all went offline to sleep.Luo Weiqiu was also really tired. In the end, he only said something vaguely to Jin Lan: "If you have time, take a look at the private chat in the game" and then went offline.

The semantics are vague and the language is tense.

Jin Lan just wanted to check the private message, but received a call.

It was Brother Hao from the same lab who came here to inform him to consider the exchange quota. If he is willing, he should prepare the materials in advance and wait for the notification after returning to school.

Returning from dream to reality, Jin Lan was still a little bit overwhelmed.But he responded quickly, saying that he would think about it carefully.

The senior brother was a little worried about him, but he was an outsider after all, and he didn't get close to him at ordinary times. In the end, he just said that even if he didn't think about it for the time being, he had to prepare the materials, and he couldn't always be so passive.

Jin Lan responded.

Then hung up the phone and clicked on the private chat channel.

At the top of the list is the news of Luoluo.

[Private Chat] [Luo Luo] That person has many problems, but you should be more tolerant, he is really nice

Jin Lan had an inexplicable awe towards Luo Luo, so she hurriedly replied:

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Well, he is really good, I have a lot of problems

Luoluo hasn't quit the game yet, so she replied:

[Private chat] [Luoluo] Oh, let's get down, he's already praising you so much

[Private chat] [Luo Luo] You may be the most perfect girl in his eyes

[Private chat] [Luo Luo] I feel relieved to have someone with him

[Private chat] [Luoluo] I can't bear it anymore when I'm old, I'm sleepy, I'm down

Luoluo sent several private chats, but before Jin Lan could reply, her profile picture was blacked out.

However, since Jin Lan said "the most perfect girl", her thinking seems to have stagnated.

girl……?

He seemed to realize something, and immediately went to see Luo Weiqiu's private message.

In fact, only a short sentence.

[Private chat] [Sisi] Can you be my girlfriend?

He was too embarrassed to speak clearly in the voice, so he chose to send a private chat in the game.

Jin Lan stayed where he was.

Girls, girlfriends... how could they think he was a girl? !

Jin Lan felt unbelievable, he never said that he was a girl, and he clearly played a male character, isn't that obvious enough?

But the deal is done, and it is too late to consider how the misunderstanding came about.

After calming down a bit, Jin Lan did not agree to Luo Weiqiu—even though he wanted to—this was his reason as an adult.

But he didn't clarify immediately - this was his selfishness.

He didn't know whether Luo Weiqiu could happily accept this misunderstanding, whether he could accept being with a man.However, after searching through his limited experience with Luo Weiqiu in his mind from beginning to end, he found that Luo Weiqiu didn't seem to have this tendency.

On the contrary, there is unfavorable evidence: Luo Weiqiu has a master who is very concerned about, and he is a girl.

And Jin Lan still remembers that Luo Weiqiu's roommate, Wei Han, told him about Luo Weiqiu's bitter love for Bai Yueguang a long time ago.In his impression, Wei Han didn't seem to say clearly whether Luo Weiqiu's Bai Yueguang was male or female.

In short, this matter seems to be really hard to draw a conclusion for a while.

His gaze refocused on the line "Be my girlfriend, can you?" on the screen.

So should I say "You're mistaken, I'm a man", or should I answer first and clarify when I have a chance?

In any case, Jin Lan knew that the latter was indeed a less conscientious choice.

And choosing the former, is it tantamount to personally cutting off the fate between the two...?

Thinking about it, Jin Lan laughed at himself.

He was really, really selfish.

Selfish and cowardly.He clearly recognized himself like this, but he still yearned deeply to be with Luo Weiqiu.Even if it's only for a short time.

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Sorry, I want to think about it

This is only something Jin Lan can see.

Where Jin Lan can't see, he won't know that when he answers the phone, he neither exits the voice room nor turns off the microphone.At that time, there was another person in the voice room, whose ID he did not recognize.

And somewhere, Yuyu, who heard Jin Lan's voice, was covering her mouth in disbelief.After causing trouble in the past few months, he felt deeply that he had caused trouble, so he never went online again, and never contacted anyone.Now it's just because I miss Sisi, so I secretly log in to the voice account during the Chinese New Year, and listen to everyone chatting and laughing in the voice room without saying a word.He used a small trumpet, which attracted no one's attention.

At this moment, when he heard Jin Lan's voice, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly burst into tears when facing the computer.
