NOVEL NEXT Chapter 79 - Extra one
Today, June 28th, is Xiang Siyu’s birthday. It happened to be a weekend, and the three of them were free, so Cheng Nan drove them to eat out.
“Xiaoyu likes to eat seafood, right? Sister Qi Ran recommended a new seafood restaurant for me and said it was delicious. Let’s try it today.” Cheng Nan said while driving.
“Okay.”
Xiang Siyu sat in the back seat and silently watched the knowledge points in his mobile phone. The final exam is next week, and the time is tight. Xiang Siyu originally told Siyu not to worry too much and just live as usual, but Cheng Nan refused.
Children are sensitive, they can say that they don’t have to, but adults can’t really deny them, otherwise it will easily make them sad and feel that adults don’t care about them.
“Dudu” popped up a message on Si Yu’s phone, which was sent by her deskmate Jiang Qian.
[Jiang Qian: Where are you now? have time? 】
Seeing this news, Xiang Siyu raised his head and asked Cheng Nan: “Sister Nannan, what’s the name of the restaurant to eat later?”
Cheng Nan thought for a while: “The corner of the sea. The sea of the sea, the corner of the angle.”
Shen Chenxi replied with a thank you, and began to reply to Jiang Qian.
[Xiang Siyu: I will go to the “corner of the sea” for dinner later, I may not have time. 】
[Jiang Qian: Okay, I understand, bye. 】
Looking at the word “bye bye”, Xiang Siyu frowned. The last time Jiang Qian returned the ID card she picked up, she thought she knew that her birthday was today.
Although she was inexplicably lost, Xiang Siyu quickly put it aside and reviewed it seriously. No one could disturb her review except the two sisters.
While waiting for the traffic light, Cheng Nan asked Xiang Siyu and said, “Xiaoyu, you are going to choose courses next semester, what do you want to choose?”
Xiang Siyu looked away from the English words on the phone.
“History of Lands.”
It is completely the type of liberal arts before the reform.
Cheng Nan smiled: “Then you can ask your sister for advice, she is studying literature.”
Shen Chenxi glanced at Cheng Nan: “I have already returned all that knowledge to the teacher.” But finally Shen Chenxi added, “If you really know something, you can ask me.”
Xiang Siyu smiled and nodded: “I will.”
The restaurant is a bit far, and it took almost an hour to get there by car.
The restaurant is very large, there are many large glass tanks in it, and the variety of seafood is extremely rich.
Cheng Nan booked a small box in advance, so that the family could eat more freely.
Order at the front desk, follow the waiter into the box, sit down and wait for the freshly made seafood delicacies.
It didn’t take long for a few people to wait, and some waiters brought the dishes to the table one after another.
The scent quickly swept over the small box.
“Dudu” the phone vibrated again, and a message popped up.
[Jiang Qian: I’m at the door of “The Corner of the Sea” now. I’m looking for you. Would you like to come out and meet me? It won’t waste your time. 】
Xiang Siyu’s pupils shrank, she didn’t expect Jiang Qian to come here.
She clenched her phone tightly and said to Cheng Nan and Shen Chenxi next door, “Go out and come back later.”
Cheng Nan thought she was going to the toilet, and waved her hand to indicate that she could go out.
Xiang Siyu walked quickly to the gate of the seafood restaurant, looked left and right, and found Jiang Qian standing next to the wall with her head bowed.
Jiang Qian wore a large white T-shirt with loose black trousers, a pair of small white shoes, shoulder-length short hair, and a white schoolbag on her back. No matter how simple the dress is, when this fat body appears in the line of sight, people tend to ignore it all and just say in their hearts: This girl is really fat.
In fact, Jiang Qian used to have mild depression and was taking medicine, which made her obese.
Xiang Siyu walked over and stood in front of Jiang Qian.
Jiang Qian saw Xiang Siyu’s familiar sneakers appearing in her line of sight, and immediately raised her head to face Siyu with a grin: “Good afternoon, same table.”
Xiang Siyu nodded and asked, “Why are you here?”
Xiang Siyu’s words seemed to remind Jiang Qian of something. She took off her schoolbag with difficulty, opened the zipper and took out a gift box wrapped in beautiful wrapping paper.
“Happy birthday, this is the birthday present I prepared for you, I hope you like it.” Jiang Qian smiled while holding the gift in both hands.
Xiang Siyu was silent for a moment, and took it with both hands: “I like it very much, thank you.”
After the gift was delivered, Jiang Qian zipped up her schoolbag and put it on her back with difficulty, grinding her hands on the seam of her trousers.
“Then…then I’ll leave first, so I won’t disturb your meal…” Jiang Qian looked at Xiang Siyu cautiously, and said slowly.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and walked towards Si Yu with her schoolbag on her back. But she didn’t take a few steps when she realized that she couldn’t walk anymore. She turned her head to look, stretched out her long arm towards Si Yu, and grabbed her schoolbag.
Seeing her turn around, Xiang Siyu said to her, “Where are you going?”
Jiang Qian turned around and faced Xiang Siyu: “Go home.”
Xiang Siyu frowned slightly: “You are here to give me a birthday present?”
Jiang Qian nodded: “I don’t know when you will go home. If it’s too late, my dad won’t let me go out.”
Looking at Si Yu and not speaking, Jiang Qian continued: “Is there anything else? I’ll go back if I’m okay…”
Xiang Siyu’s hand holding Jiang Qian’s schoolbag did not loosen, but instead he pulled a hand, pulling her closer to him.
“Don’t go back, eat with me.”
Jiang Qian’s face was full of astonishment, and then her expression was mixed with joy and surprise, her eyes were very bright, and she looked straight at Xiang Siyu.
In fact, if you look closely, Jiang Qian’s facial features are extremely delicate. Even if she is fat, she still has a pointed chin and big eyes.
But soon, Jiang Qian raised her hands and kept waving: “You celebrate your birthday with your family, it’s not appropriate for me to go there alone.”
Xiang Siyu took a step forward and suppressed his height: “Just my two sisters, no one is there.”
Jiang Qian still shook her head when she heard the words: “I… I’d better not go.”
Xiang Siyu frowned, grabbed her thick arm, and took her to the restaurant.
Xiang Si said: “Must go.”
People take a car for more than an hour to give her birthday gifts. There is no reason to let them leave as soon as they get their gifts. It is reasonable and rude.
Although Xiang Siyu looks tall and thin, she is very strong. She has practiced Sanda and boxing, which is much stronger than Jiang Qian, who is purely puffy.
Jiang Qian was dragged to the door by Xiang Siyu, so she couldn’t help but whispered to Xiang Siyu in a crying voice: “Same table…”
Hearing Jiang Qian’s voice choked, Xiang Siyu stopped and turned to look at her, only to see that the corners of Jiang Qian’s eyes were red.
She frowned, let go of Jiang Qian’s arm, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
Jiang Qian clenched her trousers tightly with both hands and said, “I really can’t go, my clothes are soaking wet and my back is full of sweat…”
She’s hot, she’s nervous, she can’t control…
She was afraid that Xiang Siyu’s two sisters would dislike her for having a sweaty smell, and… she was too fat, she was afraid that Xiang Siyu’s two sisters would dislike her.
Hearing this, Xiang Siyu looked around and found a clothes shop across the street. He reached out and grabbed Jiang Qian’s schoolbag and took her across the street.
“Just change one if it’s wet. There is air conditioning in the restaurant, so it’s not hot.” Xiang Si said.
Jiang Qian did not resist when she heard the words, and allowed Xiang Siyu to take her there, as long as Xiang Siyu did not despise her, that’s fine.
After a hard search by the shopping guide, I found a red oversized vintage V-neck high-waist dress.
The shopping guide smiled: “Miss, you can try this one, it looks very thin and beautiful.”
As soon as she saw it was a skirt, Jiang Qian immediately shook her head and refused: “No no no, I don’t wear skirts, just find me a T-shirt.”
The shopping guide was a little tangled when he heard the words: “I don’t know if Miss Sister would mind wearing men’s clothing, there are couples models…”
“You try it first and see if you like it.” Xiang Siyu interrupted suddenly and handed Jiang Qian the skirt and safety pants in the shopping guide’s hands.
“Go and try, don’t waste your time, my sisters are still waiting.”
Jiang Qian heard the words, picked up her skirt and safety pants in silence, and walked to the fitting room.
Since she started taking medicine and her body was out of shape, she seldom wears skirts, and has always been a loose T-shirt and trousers.
Xiang Siyu, who was sitting on the sofa outside, waited for Cheng Nan’s call.
Cheng Nan: “Where are you? Haven’t come back after so long?”
Xiang Siyu looked at the door of the fitting room: “A classmate in my class ran over to give me a gift. I want to invite her to have dinner with us, okay?”
Cheng Nan was surprised: “I came here to give it to you? Of course, let someone come over and eat together.”
Xiang Siyu: “Okay, I’ll take her up later.”
Cheng Nan: “Okay, your sister and I will eat together when you come.”
When Cheng Nan hung up the phone, the door of the fitting room just opened, and Jiang Qian came out wearing a red dress. She squeezed the skirt tightly with both hands, looking very uncomfortable, but it made Xiang Siyu’s eyes shine.
She suddenly found that Jiang Qian didn’t seem to be that fat either.
When the shopping guide saw Jiang Qian come out, she immediately started touting: “Look, Miss, this skirt suits you very well. Your skin is very fair, and this skirt looks great!”
It’s very good-looking. In the past, she used to wear it in a large T-shirt every day, which made people feel very fat. In fact, wearing it like this, she doesn’t look very fat.
But Jiang Qian is still very uncomfortable. She has always thought that she is very fat and that wearing a skirt is definitely not good-looking, so no matter what the shopping guide says, she does not believe it.
She stood silently in front of the mirror and looked at Xiang Siyu sitting on the sofa.
Xiang Siyu got up and walked towards her, stood in front of her and said to her, “It’s pretty.”
Xiang Siyu’s fluttering sentence overwhelms the thousands of words of the shopping guide with absolute weight.
Jiang Qian looked surprised: “Really good-looking?”
Xiang Siyu stood in front of the mirror, raised his chin toward the mirror, and motioned Jiang Qian to see it by himself.
The two people in the mirror, one wearing a red skirt, the other wearing a simple black T and dark trousers, one is fat and the other is thin, one is bright and the other is dark, and they are inexplicably pleasing to the eye.
The corner of Jiang Qian’s mouth raised, she turned her head to look at Xiang Siyu, and asked in a low voice, “Can I take a picture of the two of us?”
Xiang Siyu looked at her and nodded.
Jiang Qian immediately ran to take out her mobile phone from her schoolbag, then walked to the mirror, stood beside Xiang Siyu, took several pictures of the mirror with her mobile phone before stopping.
“Let’s go, the dishes are going to be cold.” Xiang Siyu said after she finished taking pictures.
Jiang Qian hurried to the cashier to pay the bill, but was told that Xiang Siyu had already paid.
Xiang Siyu picked up Jiang Qian’s bag, stuffed Jiang Qian’s wet clothes packed by the shopping guide into her school bag, zipped up the zipper and carried it out with one hand.
“You follow.”
“Ah, good! I’m here!” Jiang Qian was dizzy, how could she feel that today’s Xiang Siyu was so gentle, treated her well, and even bought a dress for her!
When Xiang Siyu brought Jiang Qian into the box, she had been away from her for a long time, and she apologized as soon as she entered the door.
“Sorry for wasting your time.”
Looking at Xiang Siyu to apologize, Jiang Qian also followed nervously and apologized: “Please don’t blame her, it’s my problem.”
In fact, Cheng Nan and Shen Chenxi not only did not blame, but also looked at the two people at the table with interest, or at Jiang Qian.
Is this the one who takes Xiang Siyu out of school every day?
Cheng Nan said with a smile: “It’s okay, I asked the waiter to cover the dishes, the dishes are still hot, it doesn’t matter.”
Cheng Nan pressed the service bell, and soon a waiter came in with a cart and took away all the covers.
Cheng Nan entertained: “this classmate, let’s eat together, thank you for taking care of our family Xiaoyu.”
Jiang Qian hurriedly waved her hand when she heard the words: “No, no, I want to thank Si Yu for taking care of me. I have never had any friends, and Si Yu is my only good friend…”
Shen Chenxi also spoke at this time: “It’s good to play together, what’s your name?”
Jiang Qian sat upright: “Hello sisters, my name is Jiang Qian.”
Shen Chenxi smiled: “Okay, Jiang Qian eat more, you’re welcome.”
Jiang Qian nodded: “Thank you.”
During the meal, Jiang Qian discovered that Xiang Siyu’s eldest sister was super kind to her sister. She would take the initiative to dial shrimp and crab, and set aside a bowl of shrimp and crab meat for her little sister, who answered with a smile. pass.
“Don’t look, eat quickly.” Sitting next to Jiang Qian, Xiang Siyu whispered.
“Ah, I’m sorry I’m sorry…” Realizing that she was being impolite, Jiang Qian suddenly lowered her head and ate the white rice in her bowl.
“Don’t you know how to add vegetables?” Xiang Siyu took half a crab and put it in her bowl, “Eat it by yourself, otherwise you won’t be able to finish it and waste it.”
“Okay.” Jiang Qian began to eat with vegetables.
After the meal, considering that the two students will have final exams next week, nine subjects, and their studies will be heavy, so after seeking Xiang Siyu’s opinion, Jiang Qian was first sent to Haishi’s famous non-rich. The gate of your villa area, and then drive back to the apartment.
It seems that Jiang Qian’s family is extremely wealthy.
On the way home, Shen Chenxi suddenly asked Xiang Siyu, “Did Jiang Qian give you the invitation letter you sent me back then?”
Sitting in the back seat, Xiang Siyu nodded: “Well, she gave it.”
“You and her were junior high school classmates at that time? Then they were admitted to Haishi No. 1 Middle School together?”
Xiang Siyu: “Well, I’ve always been at the same table.”
Cheng Nan, who was driving, said with a smile, “Then you have a lot of fate.”
Xiang Siyu was silent, she remembered the words she heard at the door of the office when she went to the office that day.
Whatever fate, Jiang Qian spent money to smash it out. With Jiang Qian’s grades, how could it be possible to enter the rocket class with her.
Back in his room, Xiang Siyu took out the gift Jiang Qian gave her and opened it. There were two things in the gift box. One was a watch, from Vacheron Constantin, which is currently priced at 580,000; the other was a paper full of paper. Transparent glass bottle with stars.
Xiang Si Yu glanced at his watch several times, put it aside, and picked up the glass bottle.
The glass bottle was full of colorful paper stars. She subconsciously thought that Jiang Qian had folded the paper stars one by one. Just when she wanted to put the glass bottle on the shelf, she noticed that these paper stars seemed to have written words.
Xiang Siyu was stunned for a moment, put the glass bottle in front of his desk, opened the cork, poured a few paper stars out of it, and then removed the paper stars. Sure enough, he saw a line of words on the paper.
[I wish you a happy, not only birthday. 】
Put down this sheet of paper and remove the other star.
[May the beauty of the world be interlocked with you. 】
[Happy life, everything goes well. 】
It has been dismantled several times in a row, and inside are all good wishes with short congratulations, Jiang Qian’s handwriting.
Xiang Siyu silently folded the dismantled slender papers back into the shape of stars, put them back in the glass bottle, took out the precious watch and put it on his left wrist, holding the glass bottle in his left hand, took a photo and posted it. To Jiang Qian.
[Xiang Siyu: I like the gift very much, thank you. 】
Before long, Jiang Qian returned a picture, a picture of herself standing in front of the mirror.
[Jiang Qian: I like the clothes very much, hee hee. 】
Xiang Siyu zoomed in on the picture, stared at Jiang Qian’s photo for a while, and when he regained his senses, he found that he had saved Jiang Qian’s picture.
[Xiang Siyu: You look good in this way. 】
[Jiang Qian: Good. Happy birthday, have you eaten cake yet? 】
[Xiang Si: Eat, strawberry cake. 】
[Jiang Qian: Do you like strawberries? My dad bought a lot of strawberries from outside today. I’ll take them to school tomorrow for you to eat. 】
[Xiang Siyu: My little sister likes strawberry cake. Eat your strawberries yourself. 】
Their family eats strawberry cakes, just because Shen Chenxi likes them, and no matter who’s birthday is, she will only buy strawberry cakes.
[Jiang Qian: But my father bought too much, and it is easy to break if he doesn’t eat it. 】
Xiang Siyu wanted to reply: if it is broken, throw it away.
But I also understood in my heart that this was Jiang Qian’s excuse for wanting to invite her to eat strawberries. After thinking about it, she finally typed three words: “Okay, I’ll eat it.”
In the second year of high school, Xiang Siyu chose Shi Dizheng, and Jiang Qian chose Biological Land, so they couldn’t be in the same class.
On the first day of returning to school, standing under the notice board of the class, Jiang Qian burst into tears.
“Let’s go after reading it! You are blocking everyone’s sight by yourself, do you know that!”
Many people huddled under the bulletin board to see the classification situation. Jiang Qian was fat and stood at the front, blocking the sight of many people.
If her temper is milder, let her go after reading it, and if she has a bad temper, she will push people directly.
“I’m sorry I’m sorry…” Jiang Qian came back to her senses, bowed her head and apologized, and then tried to squeeze out with her schoolbag on her back. There were too many people, and she felt that someone kept hitting her. When she was finally pushed to the outermost layer, someone stretched out her foot and tripped Jiang Qian on purpose.
“Bam—”
Jiang Qian’s fat body fell heavily to the ground.
“Hahahahaha”
When a group of people saw it, they all laughed. Not only did no one help Jiang Qian, but they pushed me and pushed you there.
“If you don’t help, maybe people will fall in love with you.”
“Fuck, get out, who the **** dares to help me, I can be crushed to death later.”
“The Tang Dynasty regarded fat as beauty, don’t you know how to appreciate it?”
“Wait, then take this beauty yourself, I’m not so lucky.”
“I’m so fat to wear a skirt, I don’t know who gave me the courage.”
“God, her arms are thicker than my legs, so I’m so thin.”
“Fuck, she’s fat…”
“Tsk tsk, look, you all blushed from crying, so pitiful…”
“You feel bad, go and help…”
“Ha ha ha ha”
The students in their youth are very simple, the good is simple, but the evil is simple.
Have they ever gotten along with Jiang Qian? Did you know her? no. They don’t need to understand, as long as they know that she is fat, she is fat, that’s enough, it’s enough for them to exclude her, laugh at her and tease her. Someone blamed, and a sentence of youth and ignorance was lightly revealed.
Jiang Qian has experienced such malice too many times and has long been accustomed to it, but every time, she still feels sad.
Jiang Qian didn’t like hearing these words, but she couldn’t close their mouths, so she had to support herself and get up.
The sea market in September is very hot. Jiang Qian was wearing a red short-sleeved dress. She felt that her skin was bruised and bleeding from the rough floor, causing pain.
It was uncomfortable before, but now she has added grievances. She lowered her head and sobbed silently. She wanted to escape from here, to find a place where no one was there to cry.
Tears moistened her eyes, but she clearly saw a slender, five-fingered hand appearing in her line of sight, with a black mole on the palm.
She looked up and saw Xiang Siyu who bent over and stretched out his hand towards her.
She heard Xiang Siyu say to her, “Jiang Qian, stand up.”
——————–
The author has something to say:
I thought about what to write for a long time. I originally wanted to write about Cheng Nan and Shen Chenxi, but I thought they were already very happy in the text, so I thought about it again and again, but I didn’t write about them. After thinking about it, Xiang Siyu finally appeared in my mind. So this is a love story between Xiang Siyu and Jiang Qian.
It won’t be very long, just two chapters.
Jiang Qian got fat on medicine, so she won’t keep getting fat.
