Chapter 359
Accounting Class 2 was currently having an Economic Law professional course, and the one teaching on the podium was the secretary of the School of Management.
Li Heng pushed the door open a crack, poked his head in, and was met with dozens of eyes and the secretary's gaze.
Although he and Mai Sui were both in the School of Management, he rarely came here, so Accounting Class 2 was very curious about him, having heard his name but never seen him.
"Professor." Li Heng greeted enthusiastically.
"Come in and sit for a while?" The secretary asked with a smile.
"Okay." Li Heng followed with a smile and truly walked into the classroom.
This question and answer left the men and women of Accounting Class 2 dumbfounded, their gazes concentrating on him, and a thought emerged in their minds: The old secretary is too polite to him! You are the secretary of a school!
Seeing Li Heng walking toward their row, Ye Ning moved to the right, Zhou Shihe in the middle moved along, and Mai Sui at the end of the aisle also moved inward.
Looking at each other for two seconds, Li Heng sat down next to her; at first, under everyone's attention, the two were well-behaved and didn't make any moves.
But after half the class, Li Heng couldn't hold back, took paper and pen from the desk, and wrote: How can you be so calm when you see me, without even a simple welcome ceremony?
After reading the note, Mai Sui smiled softly and replied: Welcome home.
Li Heng wrote: The word "home" is used well; what is your next class?
Mai Sui replied: Situation and Policy.
Li Heng asked: Is it also a leader's class?
Mai Sui replied: No, it's Professor Qin's.
A short and fat middle-aged woman's figure flashed in his mind, and Li Heng wrote: I miss you, dare you skip class and go home with me?
A sentence of "I miss you" touched the softness in Mai Sui's heart, and she put pen to paper after a while.
It was just that the tip of the fountain pen had barely touched the white paper when she stopped again, not knowing what to write for a moment? How to reply?
After waiting for a while and not getting a reply, Li Heng wrote: Professor Yu will come to eat dinner, and I plan to cook a good meal to thank her for taking care of me at Bai Luyuan; you accompany me to buy groceries and help me out.
Changing the wording, Mai Sui was no longer so embarrassed.
Seeing her fountain pen words finally settled, she replied: Okay.
The bell for the end of the 7th class rang, and Li Heng then greeted Zhou Shihe next to him: "Comrade Shihe, long time no see, hope you've been well."
Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, looked at Mai Sui, and didn't make a sound.
Ye Ning leaned over, "Li Heng, how dare you, skipping class for a whole month; do you know how the girls in our School of Management are discussing you behind your back?"
Li Heng asked: "How are they discussing me?"
Ye Ning drew a circle in the air with both hands, "They all say you are the principal's illegitimate son, and the school teachers don't dare to offend you."
Li Heng smiled and asked: "I plan to take Mai Sui to skip class, do the two ladies want to come along?"
Ye Ning looked at Zhou Shihe, eager to try.
And Zhou Shihe shook her head gently, "You guys go back first, Ningning and I will come back later."
Ye Ning grabbed Zhou Shihe's arm and shook it: "Why not skip class together! It's so exciting!"
Zhou Shihe smiled lightly and didn't speak, unmoved no matter how her friend tempted her.
Seeing this, Li Heng said to Mai Sui: "Let's go."
"Okay." Mai Sui hummed softly and followed him out of the classroom under the gaze of the whole class.
Going down the stairs and walking out of the School of Management teaching building, Mai Sui asked: "Did you report to the professor?"
"I did, I went to the counselor's office." Li Heng replied.
Mai Sui asked: "Did writing go smoothly at Bai Luyuan?"
"It was quite smooth; food and housing were not a problem there, and the new book is almost half written now." Li Heng said.
When they were about to approach the school gate, he suddenly turned his head and asked: "Why don't you write to me?"
Being stared at straight by him, Mai Sui avoided his gaze, "I didn't know what to write."
"Then just write about your daily life. For example, how many minutes it took to get up in the morning, how many minutes it took for breakfast, which classes you had in the morning, what you ate for lunch, what time you went to bed at night, um, whether you dreamed of me or something..." Li Heng babbled on.
Mai Sui was fine at first, but hearing the end, she couldn't help but laugh, finally knowing what he was up to.
Seeing that she always avoided the sensitive line, Li Heng sighed in his heart, knowing that this girl had closed her heart and couldn't return to the past in a short time, so he didn't probe anymore, but asked the question he cared about most: "Why move out of small building 26?"
In fact, asking this question was like asking for nothing.
Why they moved out, both of them knew well.
Mai Sui was silent for a long time before she spoke softly: "It's not appropriate for me to live there anymore."
Li Heng pressed: "Why is it not appropriate?"
Mai Sui didn't answer directly, but said ambiguously: "I did it voluntarily."
She said it was voluntary, but the purpose was to explain: Xiao Han didn't look for her, hoping he wouldn't misunderstand.
At this point, the two suddenly had nothing to say.
At this very moment, Li Heng thought of Song Yu.
They say that people who aren't of the same family don't enter the same door; Song Yu is kind and soft-hearted, isn't Mai Sui the same? No wonder the two girls could become the best of friends; to a certain extent, this is their greatest common point.
Staring at her side profile for a long time, Li Heng continued to walk forward, went out of the school gate, crossed the road, and came to the vegetable market.
Since there was enough cured meat at home, Li Heng only picked some seasonal vegetables to buy. He asked: "Have you been cooking at home recently?"
"Occasionally on weekends, Shihe cooks, and Ningning and I can't help much. But most of the time we eat in the cafeteria." She said.
Li Heng remembered the fortune-telling horoscope before the Lantern Festival and asked: "How is your family situation?"
Mai Sui said: "It's okay."
Li Heng asked: "Then are your parents still going to the north to do business?"
Mai Sui said: "I told them the horoscope, and they promised me not to go to the north."
Hearing this, Li Heng felt relieved.
Fate is a complicated thing; sometimes you worry for ten thousand years, and it doesn't necessarily mean bad things will happen. And sometimes, it's really accurate as soon as it's said, making people regret it too late.
To sum it up, fortune-telling, the good ones are generally not very accurate; they are people fooling you. But the bad ones, humph, I don't know if it's psychological, but always associating in that direction, it's really easy to run into bad luck.
Returning to Lushan Village and entering the house, the two who were just talking and laughing instantly became quiet.
It seems that in this familiar home, in this familiar space barrier, the emotions in their hearts can be expanded to the greatest extent, and all the secular things outside can be avoided and filtered. Li Heng entered the kitchen and closed the door, turning his head to gaze at her.
Mai Sui seemed to sense something, turned her head back, and quietly watched him.
Today, Mai Sui was wearing a reddish-brown outfit, her figure was graceful, her eyebrows and eyes hid all kinds of charm, and a touch of red lips, like cherries in early summer, tempted people to want to taste a bite.
At this moment, the magnetic force of the two's eyes was full, and once entangled, they never separated again.
I don't know when, the gloomy sky finally began to pour with heavy rain; under the blowing of the monsoon, the window glass was soon covered with pearl tear lines. Inside the kitchen, a man and a woman looked at each other silently across a distance of two feet.
Just looking at each other so tamely, with appreciation, as if far yet near.
Some relationships, even if they are at the ends of the earth, can still be linked; some feelings cannot be described in a thousand words, and some love can be decided for a lifetime with one look.
Outside the window, the storm was raging; Li Heng, who had been there for a long time, was finally moved and reached out to hug her.
Seeing those big hands getting closer and closer, Mai Sui, after struggling for a while, finally dodged lightly, retreated two steps backward without a trace, then turned around and squatted down, pretending to pick cabbage hearts as if nothing had happened.
For example, peeling off the green outer skin, for example, pulling threads.
Missing the target, Li Heng stood blankly in place, his gaze sinking, falling on the green silk on top of her head; after a long while, he passed her, came to the stove, and began to wash the wok and iron spatula.
For a time, no one paid attention to anyone, and no one went to destroy this subtle atmosphere; the kitchen was extremely quiet.
The heart weighs a thousand pounds, but there is not a word to say; the two are close at hand but seem like the ends of the earth, not daring to face each other.
Mai Sui didn't dare, and Li Heng couldn't force it.
Last year, when they poured out their hearts in the attic and kissed in the study before the Lantern Festival, her heart was surging, unable to resist, and she missed it incomparably. But afterward, she regretted it too late; the contradiction and anxiety in her heart far outweighed the joy.
If he were single, Mai Sui wouldn't have the slightest concern and would stay by his side without hesitation, being his gentle and considerate woman.
But Li Heng is too excellent, destined not to be short of orioles and swallows and confidantes around him. Other women are fine, she can still find reasons to convince herself, but Song Yu is a hurdle she can never get past in her heart.
Half a month ago, Song Yu wrote her a letter.
After reading the letter, she fell into infinite misery; she didn't dare to advance in her relationship with Li Heng, and she couldn't bear to retreat.
Thus, the situation at this very moment, a situation where she didn't dare to advance and couldn't retreat.
After a period of reflection, she decided to pretend that the things in the attic and the study had never happened, and stay by his side like before.
She knew that for a man like Li Heng, other things might be child's play, but how could feelings between men and women be treated lightly? Especially when he has many beauties around him and is favored by the opposite sex, how can she treat herself lightly?
So she is waiting silently.
As for what she is waiting for silently? What will be the ending in the future? She is also hesitant, uneasy, and unknown for a moment.
Perhaps one day he will dislike and be annoyed with her, perhaps one day he will treat her angrily and rudely, but no matter what the situation, she will accept it.
"Tap tap tap"
Just when the two fell into an infinite cycle of silence, footsteps came from outside, accompanied by a shout: "Suisui, Li Heng, where are you?"
This was Ye Ning's voice.
Zhou Shihe also came; she stood at the door without entering the house, waiting.
Li Heng shouted at the right time: "Comrade Ye Ning, we are in the kitchen."
Hearing the call, Ye Ning took three steps and made two, quickly entering the kitchen. Seeing this, Zhou Shihe outside also stepped forward and entered the house.
Ye Ning asked: "Why didn't you two speak just now? The room was dead silent, I thought there was no one, and I thought you forgot to lock the door."
Li Heng joked: "Mai Sui told me to shut up."
"Ah? Why? Can Suisui be that kind of person?" Ye Ning asked suspiciously.
Li Heng said: "She said you and Manning would be over in a while, and told me to save some saliva to deal with your questions."
Zhou Shihe at the door looked at him thoughtfully, then looked at Mai Sui, and later said gently to Mai Sui: "Suisui, do me a favor."
"Oh, okay." Mai Sui got up, simply washed her hands, and left the kitchen.
Arriving in the alley outside, she asked her best friend: "What's the matter?"
Zhou Shihe didn't make a sound until she returned to small building 25, and then asked worriedly: "Did you and Li Heng quarrel?"
Mai Sui shook her head, "I won't quarrel with him."
Zhou Shihe pondered for a short while, and then asked again: "Did you two break the window paper?"
Mai Sui was stunned, nodded after a few seconds, and said confusedly: "I don't want it to be like this either."
Hearing this, Zhou Shihe asked: "Did you shrink back?"
Looking at each other, Mai Sui acquiesced.
At this point, Zhou Shihe didn't ask further, but reminded: "It's hard to reunite a broken mirror, and spilled water is hard to collect; if you are afraid of this relationship, you will fall behind step by step, and every choice is an opportunity and a turning point, so you need to think carefully."
Mai Sui listened in silence.
PS: Tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the heroine will have her first time, wishing everyone a happy New Year's Eve and good luck in the New Year.
