Chapter 8
Since Zhai Da entered, Lin Shuyao's attention had been on him. Although she wouldn't stare at him, the cold noodles in her bowl were almost mashed into a paste, and she hadn't put them in her mouth.
Girls are like this, especially beautiful girls in puberty. Even if it's someone they don't like, if the other party likes them, a subtle connection will appear.
As if a part of the other party's soul belongs to them.
This connection is called an illusion in academic terms, and pretentiousness in colloquial terms.
That love letter was passed around by chance. Now the whole class... well, considering the legendary nature of fainting in the exam room, maybe the whole school knew Zhai Da was pursuing her. It's impossible not to care.
Zhai Da came uninvited just now. Lin Shuyao had already thought that she must not let him sit beside her, otherwise she would be misunderstood. She also thought that if Zhai Da pestered her, she could just reject him in public again.
It would prove her innocence and satisfy the girl's vanity...
Unfortunately, Zhai Da didn't say a word to her from beginning to end, and didn't even make eye contact.
The girl's heart was in a mess. A girl at the same table whispered: "Why did Zhai Da sit at that table? Is he hitting on her?"
Wu Yue secretly glanced over. There was a big beauty sitting in the corner. How could the boys in puberty, who had "little radars" in their brains, not notice? They had already secretly looked several times!
Although she was very thin... but boys at this age really only look at faces, and they like thin ones.
As for those plump ones, they would only be given insulting nicknames like "big cow."
"Zhai Da... will he be scolded?"
Lin Shuyao pretended to pull a tissue, but actually secretly glanced over there. Even she had to admit that the girl sitting in the corner was better looking than herself, a little bit...
She was even observing which boy in the class was peeking.
But her figure definitely couldn't compare to hers, she was too thin.
Just like teenage boys have "beauty radars," beautiful girls of this age also have "female competition radars." Even if they are strangers, they will start to compete secretly when they are in the same room.
When Zhai Da sat over, Lin Shuyao was very much looking forward to that girl giving him a look and making him leave in shame.
Unfortunately, Zhai Da sat down steadily and wasn't driven away. He was just looking at the menu normally.
Lin Shuyao pretended not to care: "Maybe she's thin-skinned. Zhai Da is really... so impolite."
The girl next to her said: "He confessed to you, aren't you going to manage him?"
Yes, it was just fainting in the exam room, which led to an unsent love letter being passed around privately.
Just 24 hours later, it had spread to "Zhai Da confessed to Lin Shuyao in public and was rejected, and fainted from anger."
So it was emphasized again and again that the academic pressure on students could be even greater.
Otherwise, they really don't act like people!
Lin Shuyao felt comfortable in her heart. Several people had asked her about this, including on QQ, but she never answered directly.
If the rumors are beneficial to her, why explain?
She said:
"He and I have nothing, don't spread rumors anymore. If you do this again, I will be angry."
The girl next to her rolled her eyes secretly.
Then you should be angry! Is there anyone who smiles while being angry?
Just like beautiful girls of this age have "female competition radars," those girls who are not beautiful, after being green leaves countless times, will also have "bitch-identifying radars"...
It's just that they don't say it.
The small cold noodle shop was like a Dongyang radar station, with all kinds of electric waves being transmitted.
Lin Shuyao adjusted her sitting posture unconsciously, wanting to attract Zhai Da's attention. She was wearing a short skirt today, which was quite bold in this era and at this age.
During a party in her second year of high school, she wore black silk that was considered taboo among her peers, and became famous from then on. Since then, she received love letters until her hands were soft, and there were always snacks and drinks sent by unknown boys in her drawer.
The most important thing was that Lin Shuyao was indeed good-looking, fair and tall, even her fingers were more slender than ordinary girls, her lips were tender and dripping, and her eyebrows were slightly raised, revealing a playful taste.
There might not be girls better looking than her in the school, but she learned to dress up and apply light makeup at this age, and could grasp the pain points of boys among a group of high school students.
She was killing it, okay?
Unfortunately, Zhai Da didn't see this side at all. He was just seriously thinking about whether he should eat a large portion or two small portions of different flavors...
Finally, considering that time is long and opportunities are many, he was reborn, not back from a business trip, what's the rush? He just ordered a large portion of the most traditional cold noodles.
While waiting for the meal, he said to the girl at the same table: "You ran so far from the wool textile factory to eat lunch?"
Lu Wei reacted slowly. It seemed that every time Zhai Da talked to her, she needed to consider whether to answer.
After a long while, she said softly: "It's okay, it's not particularly far."
Her voice was very light, with a special tone between "timid" and "emotionless."
However, it was not unpleasant.
Instead, it made Zhai Da feel that it was very clean.
"Has the factory canteen become so unpalatable?"
"It's edible... but it's not cost-effective..."
Cold noodles have low costs, and this is an old shop that is grounded. A small portion of cold noodles is only four yuan.
And the factory canteen, lunch is at least five yuan, and it's super unpalatable, so some people would rather waste precious lunch time and walk for more than 20 minutes to eat cold noodles.
Sometimes, she could even not eat, as if eating was just the minimum limit to maintain physiological needs.
Zhai Da looked at the clear soup and light water in the other party's bowl. It should be non-spicy. What is the difference between cold noodles without chili and a bathhouse only taking a bath...
Originally, there was no nutrition, and now even the oil and water of the chili oil were gone... Girl, are you really going to die on the sewing machine?
"Ask curiously, how much is your salary?"
"1300."
"That's okay."
Barely higher than the minimum wage here...
"The probation period pays 80%, no food or housing."
"..."
"I broke a pattern on the first day and was fined 200..."
This wool textile factory deserves to go yellow!
Zhai Da sighed: "You are so thin, you wouldn't be hungry because you have no money to eat, right?"
Lu Wei shook her head.
He thought the other party would say: I've been thin since I was a child.
As a result, Lu Wei said:
"I've been hungry since I was a child."
"But I can endure it..."
Zhai Da was silent for a long time and gave a thumbs up.
"You're awesome."
The two chatted one sentence after another. This situation made the other table even more surprised.
"My God? Not only was he not driven away, but they are chatting very well!"
"Is this Zhai Da finally super-evolved? Great awakening and became a master of hitting on girls?"
"Looking at it, he really was hurt... It's impossible for a person to change so much overnight... unless his heart has died once..."
Lin Shuyao was pulling the cold noodles irritably, feeling very uncomfortable in her heart, as if I had become the bad person.
I just wanted to study hard and didn't want to date, why did I become the bad person in the end?
Zhai Da! You are too much! You made me a bad girl!
But Zhai Da didn't look for her to talk, and she couldn't even find a chance to complain, let alone the secondary public rejection in the original plan.
She couldn't just get up and say it for no reason, right?
Thinking of this, she suddenly flashed a thought, looking at the cold noodles in front of her, and thought of a suitable method.
As if she had just reacted, she straightened up and said ambiguously to Zhai Da behind her: "Zhai Da, I can't finish this bowl, can you help me eat it? I don't want to waste food."
She felt that she had already mastered it. Letting a boy eat the food she left over, isn't this...
Indirect kissing!
Some people are born to engage in literature, some people are born to engage in tea art...
God is chasing to feed, there is no way!
Let's not talk about whether it's a bad intention, just say how pure this tea is!
Lin Shuyao raised her chin and used her best-looking left profile to make the best smile.
Looking forward to Zhai Da's reaction.
Zhai Da raised his head and was confused for a long time.
Then he came out with a sentence:
"Do you think you are very humorous?"
