Chapter 105 Youth is Beautiful
Chapter 105 Youth is Beautiful
Xu Mingyuan was swinging a bag of clothes and strolling aimlessly with Tao Shuxin, looking very leisurely.
Before he knew it, Tao Shuxin had taken him out of the Drum Tower.
With his hands behind his back, he kept kicking a small stone with the toe of his shoe until he kicked it into the green belt.
Tao Shuxin was dumbfounded for a moment, regretting that he had kicked the stone away. Now he had to take a step and kick his legs to find something to do and divert his attention.
But the effect was obviously not as good as that of stones, and the little head began to have random thoughts again.
It has been almost a year since I first met Tao Shuxin last year.
The short-haired girl at that time now has long hair reaching her shoulders.
Less lively and more graceful and beautiful.
What remains unchanged is her youthful appearance.
In Xu Mingyuan's memory, Tao Shuxin still had short hair until she graduated from high school, and she was always jumping around following her movements.
Everyone loves beauty, and girls always hope that they can be a little more beautiful, even if only a little bit.
Watching the girl's skirt swaying with her footsteps, Xu Mingyuan discovered that youth is just like now, pure without a trace of impurities.
This was the first time that Tao Shuxin and Xu Mingyuan strolled outside the school, and she always felt that the atmosphere was a bit weird.
At school, except for half a day on Sundays, we always have to wear school uniforms. Even if we find a small corner to stay for a while, due to the school atmosphere, it feels no different from sitting at the same table with others.
But at this moment, Tao Shuxin was wearing a beautiful little dress and had a light layer of foundation on her cheeks.
Even Xu Mingyuan followed his own advice and changed into a light blue plaid shirt as a jacket, rolling up his sleeves and opening his chest, looking much more sunny and cheerful than in casual clothes.
"How are you doing with your literary studies?"
Tao Shuxin held it in for a long time before finally asking the first question.
"It's still the same. You know that."
Xu Mingyuan, who was still enjoying the beauty of youth, answered calmly.
"Oh, you are good at liberal arts and comprehensive studies. Just don't perform poorly in the exam."
"Yeah." Xu Mingyuan nodded and said with a smile: "It's all thanks to your guidance."
"Can you still remember me? I thought I was fed to the dog."
Tao Shuxin pursed her lips, feeling a little happy.
"You are very good."
"No way~"
Tao Shuxin's cheeks turned slightly red, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up, and her tone was filled with the shyness of a girl.
"Indeed not. You have a lot to do."
"You're looking for a beating again!"
Annoyed, Tao Shuxin raised her hand and patted his back, but she didn't use much force, just lightly touching his heartstrings.
Once the topic is opened, the rest will be easy.
The content of the chat is no different from that in school, it’s nothing more than studying, college entrance examinations and the like.
We can talk about these things over and over again without getting bored, but we will eventually finish talking about what we have to say in school. It is impossible to talk about it all over again, so we always have to find some new topics.
But Tao Shuxin was panicking and couldn't find it even if she tried to look for it.
Looking at Xu Mingyuan standing aside, Tao Shuxin became a little angry.
Aren't you usually quite eloquent? Why are you so innocent now?
Seeing Xu Mingyuan carrying the bags in both hands, Tao Shuxin stepped in front of him, blocked his way, and said, "Can I help you carry it?"
"Here."
Xu Mingyuan stretched out his hands.
"Are you going to give it all to me?" Tao Shuxin was very confused, but when she saw Xu Mingyuan nodding, she said angrily, "How nice of you! It's good enough for me to help you carry one bag!"
Tao Shuxin took the bag and felt it. It was all thin clothes, and the total weight was less than two pounds. He must have been too lazy.
Without the bag blocking his way, Tao Shuxin moved closer and strolled forward slowly.
According to the plot in the TV series, at this time the two of them would inadvertently touch each other's fingers, and after a few attempts, they would naturally hold hands together.
It’s romantic just thinking about it.
Seeing that Xu Mingyuan was indifferent, Tao Shuxin took a deep breath, his palms were sweating, and finally he clenched his fist and punched him.
Although the reaction was a bit exaggerated, it was the boldest decision she had ever made.
However, Tao Shuxin was stunned for a moment, feeling that the touch was not right.
I turned my head and saw that Xu Mingyuan had put his hands in his trouser pockets.
I help you carry the bags, don't you know how valuable the opportunity is?
"Why did you hit me?"
"My hands are itchy! Is that not okay?"
Tao Shuxin pouted.
"Okay, how capable are you?" Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"..."You bastard, weren't you quite casual when you held Lin Jing's hand?
Although he said that it happened for a reason and he was just acting according to the circumstances, Lin Jing is different.
Tao Shuxin became angrier the more he thought about it, and stretched out his leg forward to try to trip Xu Mingyuan.
But Xu Mingyuan dodged it by raising his leg.
Tao Shuxin stretched her legs even further, but he still stepped over her.
This time Tao Shuxin was really stubborn with him and was determined to trip him up once.
After several times, seeing that she was not giving in, Xu Mingyuan hooked her feet and lifted them up.
"oops!"
Tao Shuxin didn't react in time and fell forward instantly.
Just when she thought she was going to fall, her lower abdomen tightened and then Xu Mingyuan hugged her back.
Xu Mingyuan saw the girl's soft waist and slightly rapid breathing.
Tao Shuxin realized something. The two of them were getting too close, their noses almost touching. Even her lower abdomen was pressed against Xu Mingyuan's side. She could feel the warmth through the thin clothes.
"Let me go..."
Tao Shuxin turned his head and said something hesitantly.
"If you don't let go, you'll fall."
"No! Let me go!"
Noticing the ambiguous smile on Xu Mingyuan's face, Tao Shuxin's face suddenly turned red and she kept patting his shoulder.
"Ok."
Xu Mingyuan exerted a little force before letting her go with a smile.
Now Tao Shuxin finally behaved himself.
What holding hands? She didn't even dare to think about it. This was much more exciting than holding hands.
In public, with so many people around, I didn't pay attention to the impact at all...
Tao Shuxin's face was flushed, and she just kept walking forward with her head down. Even when Xu Mingyuan spoke to her, she just responded with "um" and "ah" perfunctorily.
While calming down her fluctuating emotions, Tao Shuxin seemed to hear someone calling Xu Mingyuan.
"Hey, someone's calling you."
"No, you heard wrong."
"Yes, if you don't believe me, just look."
Tao Shuxin grabbed him and pointed in the direction.
Xu Mingyuan looked at her helplessly and followed her.
"Hello, uncle and aunt."
Xu Mingyuan greeted with a smile.
Lin Jing's parents' small store is near the Drum Tower, and Tao Shuxin really knows how to navigate the area.
"Xiao Xu, who is this?"
"I'm his classmate!"
Before Xu Mingyuan could react, Tao Shuxin spoke first.
"hello."
Lin Jing's mother responded with a smile.
"Xiao Xu, have you changed your phone number? Xiao Jing still said that if she sees you, she will ask."
"Well, the college entrance examination is coming soon, so there's no need for phone calls." Xu Mingyuan said.
After a brief chat, Xu Mingyuan said goodbye when he saw someone coming to buy something, and quickly took Tao Shuxin away.
"You just changed your phone number, how can you lie?"
After walking more than ten meters, Tao Shuxin said with a frown.
"You want me to give it to you?"
"Tsk, it's just a phone number, why can't you give it to me? Do you think you're a celebrity?"
After the most embarrassing stage, Tao Shuxin returned to her usual self.
"Those are Lin Jing's parents. Since you said so, I'll leave them my phone number when I get back."
"Ah? Stop right there!"
Tao Shuxin was stunned for a moment, then quickly pulled Xu Mingyuan back.
Damn it! Isn't this just a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth...
