Chapter 227 A Nightmare
Lu Yuanqiu's pupils suddenly shrank, and the phone next to his ear fell to the ground with a "bang", and the screen shattered into large cracks.
"boom!"
Suddenly, his head tilted and his cheek felt as if it had been hit hard, burning with pain. At the same time, a voice echoed in his ears.
"What time is it and why aren't you getting up?! Don't you have classes today?!"
The screen suddenly turned dark. Lu Yuanqiu's body shook violently. When he opened his eyes again, he saw Lu Tian's angry face.
The vision became clearer, the sounds became clearer, and the mind became clearer... Lu Yuanqiu stared at the ceiling for a long moment, then suddenly sat up from the bed.
He looked down at himself. He was still wearing the clothes he had worn last night. On the desk in front of him were the exercises he had done yesterday. Even the page numbers were the same as he remembered.
Lu Yuanqiu turned his head with red eyes, looked at his father, and asked in a trembling voice: "Dad... what day is today?"
Lu Tian looked at his son in confusion and said, "January 2nd, isn't there a class today? I was just about to go to the supermarket, but before I left, I realized you were still sleeping in bed. I thought you had already gone to school."
After saying that, he held the alarm clock beside the bed in front of Lu Yuanqiu and asked, "Look! Look! What time is it!"
Lu Yuanqiu stared at the time which was half past nine and scratched his head hard before he realized that he had been having a nightmare.
"It's already half past nine. The first class is over, right? Ah? You..." Lu Tian wanted to scold him, but suddenly he was stunned to find his son sitting on the bed and crying.
"No... why are you crying? It's just one class late, is it that serious?" Lu Tian asked puzzledly.
He reached out and touched his son's head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you crying? What's wrong? You little brat, you used to skip classes, but today you're regretting it so much because you're late for class?"
Lu Yuanqiu did not respond. He got out of bed, opened his arms, hugged his father and started crying loudly.
"Dad, I'm so scared..."
Lu Yuanqiu hugged his father tightly, crying uncontrollably. It had been a long time since he entered high school when he cried so helplessly in front of his father.
Although Lu Tian was puzzled, he still patted his son's back and said, "You had a nightmare, right? Aren't you fearless? What kind of nightmare could scare you so much?"
"I'm so scared, I'm really scared. I'm afraid that one day, when I wake up, everything will have changed..."
Lu Tian scratched his head, thinking that his son might have dreamed of some natural disaster or man-made disaster. He felt warm in his heart and asked with a smile, "Did you dream that I, your father, died?"
Lu Yuanqiu had a runny nose: "If it's this, then I wouldn't be so sad..."
Lu Tian's face changed, and he slapped him on the back of the head: "Go to school!"
Lu Yuanqiu let go of his father, wiped his tears, walked to the table and quickly packed his things. He quickly went out with his schoolbag on his back without even washing up.
The boy ran all the way, and halfway through he remembered that he had forgotten to ride his bicycle. After a brief pause, he continued to run with his bag on his back.
He rushed across the zebra crossing, jumped over the stone pillars, bypassed the sanitation workers, and even jumped up to break a branch above his head.
He ran all the way to the gate of Lucheng No. 7 Middle School. Looking at the tightly closed school gate, Lu Yuanqiu bent over and supported his knees, panting heavily. He smiled bitterly and glanced at the security guard: "I'm sorry, uncle, I overslept..."
The security guard looked at him arrogantly, opened the door and let him in without saying a word.
Lu Yuanqiu rushed to the senior high school teaching building, climbed up the stairs to the second floor, and rushed to the door of Class 28 of Senior High School.
He pushed open the classroom door with force, holding the door with one hand and carrying his schoolbag with the other, standing there breathlessly. Everyone in the class looked over, and Liu Wei on the podium also turned around and looked back at him, asking, "Did you sleep?"
Lu Yuanqiu nodded.
He straightened up slowly, somewhat afraid to look towards the window seat at the back of the classroom, but he looked over anyway.
The girl was sitting there. Today she was wearing a pink cotton coat, a ponytail and a pink hairpin on her head. Just as Lu Yuanqiu was looking at her with concern, Bai Qingxia was also looking at him with concern.
Lu Yuanqiu smiled with relief, but suddenly wanted to cry.
He took a deep breath, soothed his sore nose, pointed to the window seat in the back row and looked at Liu Wei: "Teacher, I..."
Liu Wei turned her head away: "Go ahead, it looks like you really overslept, don't do it again."
Lu Yuanqiu said politely: "Thank you, teacher."
He walked through the rows of seats and saw Gao Qiang sitting there. Gao Qiang looked much younger than in his dream, and more energetic. Yes, he has not yet become the cow or horse that can only watch the prosperity of the world on his mobile phone in the future.
Lu Yuanqiu smiled and touched Gao Qiang's head, and the latter turned his head away in disgust: "What are you doing?"
Wang Haoran lowered his head and looked at the sight of Lu Yuanqiu wearing Nike on his left foot and Adidas on his right foot, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Liu Wei turned around when she heard the noise, and Wang Haoran quickly shut his mouth.
Lu Yuanqiu walked towards the back row and found that Zhong Jincheng was giving him the middle finger. Lu Yuanqiu didn't care and instead smiled at him gently. Zhong Jincheng was stunned, with a confused and surprised expression. He then put away his middle finger in boredom and turned his head back.
Zheng Yifeng was still sleeping on the table. Lu Yuanqiu passed by and patted his head, saying, "Zheng Yifeng, wake up."
Zheng Yifeng ignored the voice and continued to lie on the table motionless.
Sitting back in his seat, Lu Yuanqiu put his schoolbag into the hole in the table. He turned his head to look at the girl. Bai Qingxia narrowed her eyes and observed Lu Yuanqiu's eyes carefully. She was wondering why Lu Yuanqiu's eyes were a little red, but the boy suddenly held her face and kissed her on the forehead.
"mua!"
Bai Qingxia was startled and quickly tilted her head back, while reaching out to push Lu Yuanqiu's chest.
"you……"
She quickly looked around. No one was paying attention to what was happening here. Liu Wei was writing on the blackboard with chalk seriously.
Although she was annoyed by Lu Yuanqiu's behavior, Bai Qingxia noticed that Lu Yuanqiu's eyes were red, as if he had been crying. Thinking about his lateness today, she couldn't help but ask, "You...what's wrong with you? What happened?"
"I had a nightmare. I couldn't find you in the dream and couldn't get through on the phone. I was so anxious."
Lu Yuanqiu said softly.
Bai Qingxia looked at the dried tears in the corners of Lu Yuanqiu's eyes, and her heart suddenly warmed up. The girl seemed to have forgotten the anger she had just felt after being kissed. She placed her slender white hand on Lu Yuanqiu's arm and said softly,
"It doesn't matter. Dreams are always the opposite."
I'm a little late today, sorry.
