Chapter 20 Then I’ll keep waiting Fu Linchuan looked behind her, but there was no one else. "Why are you here?" He clutched the strap of his schoolbag uncomfortably and turned his head to look elsewhere. Tang Zhiyi stood up from the wall and walked towards him step by step. "Should I ask you this?" She crossed her slender arms across her chest, as if teasing him on purpose, "Huh? Fu Linchuan, I don't remember your home is in this direction?" "I'll just take a walk. Where's the boy next to you? Isn't he with you?" He wanted to say something casually to change the subject, but regretted it after he said it. What is he talking about? If I mention that boy, I'll be exposed. Sure enough, the next moment, Tang Zhiyi approached him with raised eyebrows: "How did you know that I came with a boy? Are you following me?" Fu Linchuan's heart sank. As expected, he would be considered a pervert. Tang Zhiyi saw that he had been silent and was just about to take him home. Unexpectedly, Fu Linchuan spoke.
"Yes, because I want to see what you are going to do with that boy, and I also want to know what your relationship is." Tang Zhiyi didn't expect him to be so direct. She thought it would take a few more coaxings before he would say anything. She asked: "Does it matter what relationship I have with him?" Fu Linchuan lowered his head, remained silent for a while and said, "It's important." "Because I don't want to see you get too close to other boys." Tang Zhiyi continued to ask: "Why don't you want to see me getting too close to other boys?" "Because." Fu Linchuan stopped talking. Tang Zhiyi didn't plan to force it out all at once, and today's progress was enough. She grabbed the schoolbag strap that Fu Linchuan had been holding and pulled it down. The tone was a little helpless: "Let's go, it will be dark if we don't go back." After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Fu Linchuan looked at her back and raised his heels. The hand that grabbed the strap of the schoolbag slowly moved down a little. The two of them were waiting for the bus at the bus stop where they got off before. The last ray of sunset had also set on the top of the mountain. The whole sky was glowing with cyan white, and a few clouds were half red and half gray. After the sun goes down, it gets dark almost instantly. When the bus arrived, it was completely dark, and they got on the bus together. Fu Linchuan walked silently to the window seat in the last row, sat down and immediately went to see Tang Zhiyi. But she sat down in the single seat in front. He paused, hesitating whether to sit in front too, but saw Tang Zhiyi answering a phone call. There were very few people in the carriage at this time, so the voice on the other end of the phone could not be heard clearly, but what she said could be heard clearly. "Yes, I suddenly remembered something, so I went back directly."
"Well, I'll help you look at it next time." "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry to learn." Fu Linchuan guessed from the first sentence that the person calling was the boy who came to see Tang Zhiyi after school. I felt depressed again. As a result, I watched them make phone calls all the way until Tang Zhiyi was about to get off the car. I felt even more depressed. Why do they have so much to say between them? Moreover, Tang Zhiyi's attitude towards him seemed to be very gentle and patient, unlike her attitude, which was hot and cold. The two got off the car together at the school gate. Tang Zhiyi turned around and said goodbye to him, and was about to walk straight back to her residence from the school gate, when Fu Linchuan suddenly stopped her. "Can I still send you messages after I go back?" He asked very nervously, completely unaware that a few days ago, he was the one who was forced to add his contact information. "Of course," Tang Zhiyi frowned, "You can always do it." "But, I sent you a message a few days ago, but you didn't reply to me." Fu Linchuan said in a muffled voice. Tang Zhiyi rolled his eyes and looked like he was thinking: "That may be because you don't have enough hair." "?" Fu Linchuan didn't expect this answer at all. Tang Zhiyi added: "If you only send me a message, I will most likely not see it, or I will see it but it is not convenient to reply at the time, and then I will forget to reply later." This situation did exist, and Tang Zhiyi's expression didn't look like he was joking, so Fu Linchuan believed it. "But if you send me a lot of messages, every time I forget to reply, there will be a new message to remind me, and I will not fail to reply to you." Tang Zhiyi smiled gently, as if he was really giving advice sincerely. Fu Linchuan nodded. "okay, I get it." Tang Zhiyi left with satisfaction. Fu Linchuan stayed on the platform for a while, saw the bus he usually took arrived, and got on the bus. As soon as he got in the car and sat down, he took out his mobile phone and opened the chat interface with Tang Zhiyi. I was still thinking about what to say, but I saw a new message suddenly appeared under the green message that had been lonely before. The ragdoll cat posted a cute emoticon: []. Fu Linchuan stared at the emoticon. The round cartoon character threw himself on the ground, holding many small flowers in his short little hands. He threw them up, caught them, and then threw them up again, with a cheerful smile on his face. The corners of Fu Linchuan's mouth curved slightly, as if he was also infected by this little thing's smile. After laughing for a while, he pursed his lips and issued a question mark. There was no reply from the other party. He remembered what Tang Zhiyi said again. If he sent too few messages, she might not reply.
So he sent a few more messages. [c: Why did you suddenly reply to my message? 】 [c: Did you forget to reply before? 】 [c: Are you home? 】 [c: Have you had dinner? 】 As soon as Tang Zhiyi arrived at the door, he heard his cell phone ringing every now and then. She opened WeChat with some humor and saw that Fu Linchuan had sent her eight messages in one breath. She scrolled to the top and started reading, then replied one by one. [Xi: After all, you just told me in person that I didn’t reply to your message. Wouldn’t it be rude not to reply? 】 [Xi: Yes] [Xi: Yeah] [Xi: Eaten] The two chatted for a while before ending the conversation. When he was about to go to bed, Tang Zhiyi suddenly remembered that he had added Fu Linchuan on WeChat because he wanted to give him an explanation, but since adding him on WeChat, he never seemed to take the initiative to ask. She thought about it and sent him a message. [Xi: Didn’t you really want to know why I know so much? But it seems like you never asked again. 】 As soon as the message is sent, "The other party is typing" is immediately displayed above. But it took almost a minute before the other party's message was sent. [s: Wait until you want to say what you want to say.] Tang Zhiyi moved slightly and sent another message. [Xi: What if I never want to say it? 】 This time the display of "the other party is typing" lasted for three minutes. Just when Tang Zhiyi was wondering if there was a bug, Fu Linchuan finally responded. 【s: Then I will keep waiting. 】 (End of this chapter)
