Xiao has thought about it for a long time

In the warm palm, the slender knuckles twitched, but they were clenched too tightly, unable to escape.

She doesn't know what distance is, and she doesn't want to let go, so she holds on to her. Fu Bei doesn't look at her, lowers his eyes, and clenches his writing hand tightly. The knuckles are slightly white from too much force, and the white A4 paper He drew a zigzag line of different thicknesses and weights, which was very short, not as long as a finger.

"I want to have dinner with you later, in the cafeteria." Josie continued to speak softly, not asking, but stating, making sure that the other party would not refuse.

Fu Bei didn't say a word, and acquiesced.

Josie smiled, but didn't let go, just leaning on her arms and facing that way, as if what she was doing was normal and there was nothing wrong with it.

But in the end, inadvertently, the other party broke free, quickly withdrew his hand, and listened to the professor's lecture with a normal expression, as if nothing happened just now.

Josie didn't know what was going on, so she leaned to the side, took out the drawing ruler, put it in Fu Bei's hand, and asked, "Is it okay?"

Fu Bei took the ruler and hummed.

Because she was talking quietly to Fu Bei, the sharp-eyed professor saw her, and the professor directly asked Fu Bei to solve the problem and derive the formula. 306 is a large classroom. There are more than 100 people in four classes attending the class together. Many students glanced over at the same time. The students who were close to Fu Bei noticed Josie and whispered to each other.

As soon as the get out of class bell rang, someone came over and asked, "Fu Bei, who are you?"

Everyone could tell that Josie was not very old, not like a college student, and everyone was full of curiosity.Josie is already twitching, like a tender willow in spring, tall and thin, full of youthful vigor, with an outstanding face, and the most eye-catching one in the crowd, her temperament and Fu Bei are two extremes.

Fu Bei said truthfully, "Neighbor."

The classmates all smiled and praised Josie for her good looks.

"It's time for dinner, do you want to have dinner together, little sister?"

Just as Josie was about to answer, Fu Bei spoke first: "I'll take her out to eat, we'll be together next time."

The classmate stopped talking, and everyone in the classroom was going out, and they also left.

Josie followed Fu Bei, thinking that he was really going to eat out, so he went to hold Fu Bei's arm so that the crowd would not be pushed away, and asked, "Where should I go out to eat?"

"Don't want to go to the cafeteria?" Fu Bei asked back.

She was stunned for a while, but she didn't realize the twists and turns. This person just told others that he was going to eat out, but now he said to go to the cafeteria.

"Didn't you say to go outside, I will go wherever you go."

Fu Bei stopped and took her to stand on the edge of the stairs, not to be crowded in the crowd. On a hot day, so many people gather together, and the smell of sweat is particularly strong. Less, and took her to the corridor with fewer people on the other side, while asking: "Which cafeteria do you want to go to?"

This person's mind is really hard to guess, and he can't speak accurately.

Josie said, "I want to eat dry pot."

Dry pot is only available in the No. 10 canteen. On the east side of the school, it is far away from the No. [-] teaching. There are mobile campus buses in the school. You have to take a bus to get there in about [-] minutes.It was just after class in the afternoon, and there were many students queuing up to take the bus. When the two of them squeezed into the bus, there were no seats left. The bus was so crowded that it was difficult to even turn around.

As soon as she got into the car, Josie was pushed aside, separated from Fu Bei.

There was an indescribable smell in the car, and it was disgusting to smell. Josie couldn't bear it, and finally bit the bullet and walked hard in the crowd, squeezing in front of Fu Bei. He pulled the bracelet, hesitated for a moment, and grabbed Fu Bei's arm.

"How long will it take to get there?" She really didn't like the torment in the car, because it was too close, she could smell the smell of Fu Bei's body when she got a little closer. It's a plant aroma, but it smells good.

Probably fainted by the smell inside the car, she moved closer, almost resting her head on Fu Bei's shoulder.

Fu Bei froze and tried to avoid it, but there were too many people in the car and he couldn't move.

Behind Josie are several tall boys. The group is discussing the knowledge points in the class excitedly, and also talking about the topic of the term paper. There are many people in the car, and their voices are the loudest. Boys love sports. She didn't pay much attention to hygiene, she only changed her clothes once every three or four days in the summer, so the smell on her body was naturally heavy. Josie went straight to Fu Bei, like a child.

The bus stopped once at the Shaw Teaching Building. When someone got off the bus and the station was temporarily vacant, Fu Bei calmly embraced Josie and switched places with her.

"A few minutes, bear with it for a while."

Several boys were still chatting and laughing, Josie was stunned, and grabbed the little piece of fabric at the cuff of Fu Bei's short sleeve. People were blocking the surroundings, and he couldn't see the specific scene outside the car, only a corner shaking Trees and silhouettes in a hurry.She pursed her lips, her heart was tight, and a little astringent, as if being gently brushed by a soft crow's feather, her chest could not stop itching, but she couldn't scratch it, and couldn't tell what was going on.

The bus was moving too slowly, and it took a long time to get out of the way to the teaching building.

There are still many people in the car, crowded to and fro.When parking the next time, she was pushed down by someone, and one of them lost her footing. Josie staggered and fell on Fu Bei. Because she was in a trance just now, she subconsciously raised her arms and hugged Fu Bei, just at the waist.

Fu Bei lives a self-disciplined and strict life. She usually insists on going to the gym twice a week. Her waist is thin and firm, and her backline is obvious. You can feel it when you touch it. Josie has always been unconscious. Tsukuru caressed carelessly.

Standing next to each other, she clearly felt Fu Bei's waist straightened, he took a slight breath, and his chest rose and fell slightly.

The change was too subtle, but still noticeable.

Josie lowered her eyes, but she didn't let go of her hand no matter what, and took advantage of the opportunity when someone got into the car in front of her to hug him tighter. She was bold and careful when she made these small movements, and she used cleverness to cover it up, as if she was afraid of falling again Only then did I hold each other like this.

The little girl was about to push her whole body into Fu Bei's arms, and she pushed it hard, but she couldn't push it away. She didn't seem to notice that she was pushed at all, and she didn't move with one hand clinging tightly.

After all, it's up to me.

Thanks to the air conditioner in the car, otherwise it would be too hot to hold each other like this.

When the car was turning, it became wobbly. Josie lost her balance and staggered into Fu Bei's arms, accidentally touching the softness.

Both of them were stunned for a moment, maybe they didn't expect this kind of accident, Fu Bei was still calm, his thin lips moved, and he didn't say anything after all, but Josie suddenly blushed, feeling that her cheeks were burning badly, she didn't dare to look up , to prevent Fu Bei from seeing his changes.

Even so, it still didn't let go.

The 10-minute drive was so long. When I got off the bus at the No. [-] Canteen, the people in the car scrambled to get away first. Josie finally let go of her hands and walked in front with a calm face. look back.

Fu Bei followed closely behind. The sun was so strong that it was hard to keep your eyes open.

The Second Canteen specializes in various local specialties. There are quite a few students who come here to eat, but most of them are in pairs or a few people, and rarely come to eat alone.The two of them ordered two small pots, one pot of ribs and one pot of shrimp. The service in the cafeteria was considerate, and disposable gloves were also provided when serving the dishes.

The portion is very large, one pot is enough for two people, but Qiao Xi insisted on ordering them all.

"Can you eat so much?"

"I can't eat it." I replied with a bite, so embarrassed to say.

Fu Bei went to make soup, and when he came back, he put on disposable gloves and peeled the prawns slowly. She didn't ask why Josie came to find her suddenly. In fact, she could guess after thinking about it. What else could be the reason for keeping silent in the situation of Qiao's family? After peeling a shrimp, he didn't eat it himself or give it to Josie, but put it back in the small iron pot.

The little girl on the opposite side was quite quick. She raised her hand and put the peeled shrimp tail into her bowl with a chopstick.

"If you can't eat it, you can eat less next time."

This man always likes to preach, and he still thinks Josie is a child.In the past, Josie would have refuted, but when she heard the word "next time", she fell silent for a moment, and instead nodded obediently.

Maybe because he realized that what he said was not quite right, Fu Bei didn't continue.

The biggest difference between high school and university lies in the time arrangement. In high school, you have to fight for time to eat a meal, but in college, you can eat slowly without rushing at all.The whole pot of shrimp was almost finished by Josie. Halfway through the meal, she finally realized that she was peeling it with gloves on. She didn't eat the ribs until most of the people in the second canteen had dispersed.

Originally, she came to find someone to relieve her bad mood, but she never mentioned anything about the family affairs. Instead, she asked, "Fu Bei, do you do math every day when you study mathematics?"

Fu Bei said: "Freshmen and sophomores learn more theory."

"What else do you want to learn later?"

"There's a lot to learn."

Josie said oh, she was only in high school, and she didn't have much idea about the majors of the university, but after the class just now, she felt that it was not much different from the high school class.

It took nearly an hour to eat a meal, and after eating, it was almost time to go to the teaching building and wait for the evening class. Fu Bei sent people to Qingnian Lake, asked Josie to go out by himself, and took a taxi home.

Josie was not happy, and said in a muffled voice, "I don't want to go back, I have nothing to do at home."

Fu Bei would not follow her, "It's too late, Uncle Qiao will worry about you, go back early."

This person will not care too much about Josie, no matter whether Josie is willing to leave, he will go to the Shaw teaching building to attend classes according to the time.

At dusk and sunset, there were many people around Youth Lake, and Josie found an empty bench to sit and watch others feed the fish.Fu Bei walked to the gate of the Shaw teaching building, looked back, and frowned when he saw that the person was still there, but he still didn't come back, and walked upstairs to the classroom.

However, Josie still didn't leave, bought a cup of milk tea and waited outside the classroom.

As soon as the bell rang, the students in the classroom filed out. Fu Bei walked behind. When he came out and saw her, he was startled for a moment.

"Fu Bei—" The little girl stepped forward in two or three steps with a face thicker than a city wall.

She had already drank most of the milk tea, and Jiang Da couldn't use cash to buy things. At that time, mobile payment was not yet popular, so I don't know how she got here.Fu Bei closed her thin lips, and was about to speak, but Josie gave her something, her campus card, which was taken away at some point.

Josie lied without hesitation, and said without blushing, "You forgot to take it. I can't come in directly during class, so I have to wait for you to give it after class."

Buying milk tea is to swipe Fu Bei's campus card. I have the audacity to go into the classroom in the afternoon, and I am too embarrassed to go in at night. Who would believe it.

Fu Bei took the card and said softly, "I'll take you out for a ride."

It seems that Josie must be sent back.

Josie refused, "I will go by myself, without you."

Obviously she was lying, it's strange that she would go away by herself, Fu Bei didn't know her well, it was like this when she was a child, she said what she would do, but in fact she would do nothing, as long as she didn't want to, no matter how hard others forced her use.

"Then I'll call Uncle Qiao and ask him to pick you up." Fu Bei said, leading the people downstairs, and took out his phone by the way.

Josie took advantage of the opportunity to grab it, "Don't hit!"

Guessing what might have happened at Qiao's house today, Fu Bei wouldn't really hit him. When he got downstairs, no matter how the little girl made a fuss, he would still take her out of the school.

Josie followed behind sullenly, suffocating, and put her mobile phone in her pocket as she walked, as if if she really wanted to drive her away tonight, she would not return the mobile phone.It's a pity that this trick is useless to Fu Bei, and he still has to send her away.

Go to the front gate of Jiangcheng University.

At that time, there were many small stalls outside the front door, the most were vendors selling snacks, followed by gadgets and decorations, all of which were cheap earrings and necklaces worth a few dozen dollars. If you don't come in, you can only go further.

Josie lost her temper and refused to leave. She stood in front of a jewelry stall and said, "If I don't leave, it's up to you."

A street was bustling with students who went shopping at night, and people kept walking past them.Fu Bei was patient, and only asked indifferently, "Where do you live if you don't go back?"

To provoke her on purpose, Josie said stiffly, "Sleeping on the street."

Fu Bei didn't speak.

Josie said again, "I'm not going back to sleep on the street."

In the past few years, she has become more and more foolish. When she was a child, she was sensible and obedient, and behaved obediently in everything. As she grew older, she became a little bit extreme and didn't care much about the feelings of the people around her. But it's okay, she won't make trouble It's too big a deal.

These years, the reputation of the Qiao family in the courtyard is not particularly good. Josie has been a bit withdrawn since she was a child, and she only likes the old lady and her elders.

Fu Bei stared at her, maybe he didn't know what to say, and he couldn't comfort her. After all, she was such a big girl, and she understood a lot of truths.

After all, it was the fault of the Qiao family couple first, and the two of them couldn't live on, so why let the children bear it.

After a long time, Fu Bei said helplessly, "Josh, don't be so willful."

The voice was very low and light, without the slightest accusation, let alone teaching, it was the truth, there was no point in not going home in the middle of the night, the one who suffered was ultimately himself, and he had to pay for his willfulness.

Josie didn't answer immediately, she looked down at the dusty ground, and after a while, said in a low voice, "I didn't..."

The little girl lowered her eyes, never looked at Fu Bei, and her whole body drooped. She just wanted to find someone she could rely on, and she didn't want to be willful. She knew there was no point in running away from home, but she just came to find Fu Bei.

She didn't even know why she came here today, but she just came anyway.

It's not yet 09:30 in the evening. Qiao Jianliang called her at six o'clock. She lied and said that she was at a classmate's house and would not go back tonight. Qiao Jianliang and Qiao's mother didn't ask much, and they didn't care which classmate's house she was in. .

Josie had never brought a classmate home before, and the couple actually believed such a clumsy and easy-to-debunk excuse.

Pull people to the side of the banyan tree, where there is a place to sit.

"Talk about it, okay?" Fu Bei asked in a low voice, bending down a little.

Josie buried her head and remained motionless for a long time, let alone a word. After a long time, she nodded.

I don't know if she was crying, but after hesitating for a moment, Fu Bei managed to lift her face. Seeing that the little girl was just depressed, he immediately let go.

"Are they fighting again?"

"Ah."

"Called you?"

Josie shook her head, "No."

Everyone in the Fu family knew the virtues of the couple, so it was inconvenient to judge too much. After a long silence, Fu Bei raised his hand to help her straighten the messy hair on her forehead, and tied it behind her ears.

"Don't be too sad."

There are no words of consolation, just this one.

Josie hummed, moved her lips, tried to utter and swallow the words a few times, and in the end there were only two words - "No."

All kinds of sounds around here come and go, but they don't fit in here.Fu Bei pondered for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, Shu Er was hugged and felt warm in his arms.
