Chapter 1 A Summer Blown by the Wind 3
I fell into my memories and sank.
It was not until I heard a reminder sound from the phone next to me that there was a new message on Weibo that I opened my eyes slightly, wiped the corners of my eyes gently, and found that they were a little wet.
I forced myself to wake up, sat up from the bed, picked up the phone next to me, and flipped through the pages with my fingers moving.
It was Xia Li who sent me another private message.
When I clicked on it, there were only two words: "How?"
"That's terrible!" After typing the exclamation mark, I breathed a sigh of relief, and then emphasized "Send".
"how?"
The other party was still the same and still refused to say a word.
"The person kissed his girlfriend in front of me and asked me to stop bothering him. He obviously forgot about me." I answered truthfully. I never hide anything from Xia Li.
After a long time, I finally got a short reply: "Are you going to give up?"
"No." I answered almost without thinking.
The other side quickly replied with two words: "Very good."
Finally, she added: "You know, you are very lucky. Some people may never find the person they lost in their entire life, like me."
It turned out that this was a person who shared the same pain as me. Suddenly, I felt as if there was an old friend sitting on the other side of the network who I hadn’t seen for many years, separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.
I couldn't help but tell her about my frustration: "What's the use? He doesn't remember me at all. Maybe he never thought about remembering me."
"What does it matter? If he has forgotten, just stand in front of him and let him get to know you again. Did you look for him for so long just to see if he still remembers you?"
Of course not. I know that even without Xia Li's words, I would not give up. I just need to find some courage and support from others. But I am still very grateful for her support at this moment.
I met Xia Li before I met Jian Chen.
In the past, when I was free every day, I would habitually surf the Internet to look for clues about Xiao Shitou. By chance, I saw a youth campus novel serialized online. Some of the living habits of the hero in the novel were very similar to the person I was looking for, and the author of the novel was called Xia Li.
It is said that she is a Chinese-Italian woman and a best-selling author of mysterious youth campus novels.
I tried my best to find Xia Li's contact information on Weibo, and from then on I became crazy as if I had grabbed a life-saving straw, and I kept sending her private messages unyieldingly. The reason was very simple - at that time, she was my only clue to find Xiao Shitou.
After I met Jian Chen by chance at the gate of Baisha College that day, I probably had no way to vent the joy of regaining what I had lost, and I urgently needed someone to share my happiness with me. So, I started to contact Xia Li like before, frantically, to tell her that I had found that person.
The person I have been looking for for ten years , I finally found him, the one I said is very similar to the male protagonist described in her book.
For a long time, there was no response from Xia Li, but I still did not give up and kept sending her private messages, telling her every message about everything that happened after my reunion with Xiao Shitou, and my emotions that were surging like the waves of the ocean, my excitement, my joy, and my sadness.
It wasn't until a few days ago that Xia Li finally replied to me.
"I'm sorry I haven't been able to get back to you."
"congratulations."
She was as frugal with words as ever. Compared with my long and illogical speech, Xia Li was rational and calm.
In this way, Xia Li and I gradually became familiar with each other on Weibo, and soon, we became friends who could talk about anything.
She is like a wise man. She can understand all the fluctuations in my heart just by listening to my words without us meeting. She uses her always concise words to sort out my confused thoughts and lights a bright lamp for me when I am confused and lost .
Apart from Xiao Shitou and Aixi, Xia Li is the third person who makes me feel inexplicably close to him.
It seems like we have known each other for a long time, but fate has separated us from each other, and we can only meet and know each other on the Internet.
This day seemed to be a lucky day rewarded to me by God.
When I left home in the morning, Aisi was already waiting for me in the car. I could see his dark little face from a distance.
I know, it was probably because of the criticisms about me pursuing Jian Chen at school that made his classmates laugh at him. With a sister like me who is my poor brother Ai Xi, how could he not be depressed!
I got into the car and rubbed Aixi's arm to please him: "Smile a little, you're not handsome with a gloomy face."
Aisi mocked me in a nasal voice and turned her head away as if I were invisible.
What? This guy is really mad at me.
I continued to flatter him with a grin: "Hey, I have a walkthrough of Angry Birds!"
Aisi has recently become obsessed with this game and is struggling to figure out how to complete it.
"Ai Banxia!" Ai Xi called my name loudly and angrily.
I immediately shut up and didn't dare say another word. He had told me to stay away from Jian Chen a long time ago, and I couldn't anger Ai Xi because of my obsession with Xiao Shitou.
I waited for him to get angry with an apologetic look on my face, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't say anything.
At the , Ai Xi suddenly stretched out her right hand in front of me and said coldly, "Give me your phone."
"ah?"
"Just give it to me when I tell you to, stop nagging!" His little face was still frighteningly gloomy, but his pretended angry tone could not hide the fact that he was no longer angry.
What an awkward guy!
I obediently took out my phone and gave it to him.
Aisi took it and tapped the phone for a while, then handed it back to me: "You're so stupid. Don't you know how to use a roundabout tactic?" Although the tone was clearly blaming, I could hear concern.
"ah?"
"See for yourself!"
I flipped through the phone book and saw a new contact named "Poker Face". I was puzzled: "What is this?"
Ai Xi rolled her eyes at me and said, "The only guy in Baisha College who can be called a 'poker face' is Jian Chen ."
"Ha!" I jumped up from my seat with joy and was hit hard on the head by the roof of the car, but I didn't feel any pain at all.
"Ai Xi, I love you so much." I rushed over and hugged Ai Xi tightly.
The little boy immediately blushed and pushed my hand away: "Boring!"
What a warm guy.
However, I felt something was wrong.
Where exactly is it?
Then, I remembered something: "Ai Xi, why didn't you bring your tablet out today?"
In the past, he always kept it in his hand on the way to school or home.
"I lent it to a classmate." He answered without hesitation.
However, Baisha College is an aristocratic college, and almost everyone has a tablet computer. No one needs to borrow one from him, unless...
"How did Jian Chen get his cell phone number?"
Ai Xi avoided answering: "You are so nagging!"
As expected, I guessed it right?
"You used your tablet to exchange phone numbers with someone?" The ice wall that I had built high in my heart suddenly collapsed a lot somewhere, and I couldn't help but sniff.
"Hey!" Ai Xi looked down at me, "It's just a tablet, Ai Banxia, why are you so upset? Now I have a good reason to buy the latest tablet. I'm so happy."
That's obviously not the case. That tablet means a lot to him. It's the first thing he bought with his own efforts.
"Aisi..." I leaned over and hugged him again.
This time, he didn't dodge and let me hold him like a koala. He patted my back and said, "Ai Banxia, you look so ugly when you cry, so please don't cry. I don't like to see it."
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and I really wanted to say, Aisi, you are so cute when you pretend to hate me.
