Chapter Nine: Ripples

In her sophomore year, or the beginning of college life, Tang Jia no longer had to live as compact and fulfilling as high school, and even began to skip classes, so that when it came to the final exam, the books were like just issued, and some of them had not even been opened.

Xia Xuan was no longer as entangled with Tang Jia as before, Tang Jia felt that the days were boring, and after careful consideration, Tang Jia signed up for an accounting professional class, and every weekend she had to take classes.

The first class, Tang Jia was late, smiled apologetically at the teacher, quickly found a place to sit down, just opened the textbook, the classroom door was pushed open, Tang Jia looked up, and could no longer remove his eyes.

Zhang Xiaoya pushed open the door and said sorry to the teacher, who nodded and signaled Zhang Xiaoya to quickly enter the seat.

As soon as Zhang Xiaoya turned her head, she just bumped into Tang Jia's gaze, her face was slightly hot, and the ghost made god go to Tang Jia and sit in the seat next to Tang Jia.

Unable to think that seeing Tang Jia again was such a scene, Zhang Xiaoya instantly felt embarrassed.

Tang Jia did not expect that Zhang Xiaoya would come to read the accountant, until Zhang Xiaoya sat next to her, Tang Jia eased up.

"Why are you here?" The two asked in unison, and then both of them laughed.

Tang Jia felt that the blooming of a hundred flowers in spring was just like this, and Zhang Xiaoya seemed to be more beautiful than before.

Zhang Xiaoya saw that there was still a green vegetable between Tang Jia's teeth, smiled even happier, and quickly opened the bag and handed a tissue to Tang Jia.

Originally, getting up early on the weekend to go to class was a kind of torment for Tang Jia, but this time Tang Jia did not feel tired at all, every time he got up early to take a bath, he dressed very carefully, every time he played perfume, he must make himself look refreshed, of course, eat a good breakfast to gargle three times, so as not to appear again the last time, in front of the beautiful woman this kind of ugly is not a good thing.

Shi Lei is very satisfied with Tang Jia's recent performance, in his opinion, this is what people in love should do, until one day, Shi Lei saw Xia Xuan when eating, Xia Xuan and his roommates were eating together, and Tang Jia, who went out in the morning, was missing.

When Tang Jia returned to the dormitory at night, he was blocked by Shi Lei.

Shi Lei took out a cigarette and handed it to Tang Jia, who was a little strange and pushed it back.

"I don't smoke, don't you smoke either?" What's wrong? Lost love? Looking at Shi Lei's unusual behavior and the anxiety in his eyebrows, Tang Jia asked these words.

Shi Lei lit a cigarette and took a deep breath, but he was choked and bent down to cough.

"If you can't smoke, don't pretend!" Tang Jia stepped forward and grabbed the cigarette that Shi Lei had caught in his finger, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it, saying while stepping on it.

Shi Lei covered his mouth with his left hand, coughed fiercely twice, his face was choked red, swung his right hand, and stood up straight to look at Tang Jia: "Say! Have you been going to the weekend lately? ”

"Oh class! What are you doing? Tang Jia looked at Shi Lei and asked.

Shi Lei snorted and continued, "Then when you get to the weekend, you are taking a shower and changing clothes, and you are playing perfume, and you will be so upset in class?" Then he looked at Tang Jia with a suspicious look.

Tang Jia is actually a little weak-minded, after all, Xia Xuan is his girlfriend, recently Tang Jia has always had a sense of guilt, enjoying the class with Zhang Xiaoya at the same time, but he has to review it himself, and there is always a sense of guilt of being a thief.

In our youth, do we understand love? Do you know how to make trade-offs? Know what it's like to love someone?

At this moment, in the face of Shi Lei's questioning, Tang Jia was silent.

Shi Lei looked at Tang Jia without answering himself, sighed, and said, "Old Tang, haven't you always said that men have to take responsibility!" You can't do the thing of stepping on two boats, and falling in love is to be innocent. After saying that, Shi Lei patted Tang Jia's shoulder and turned to the balcony, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit a cigarette, and didn't know what to think while standing there.

Tang Jia stood up, took a deep breath, took out the phone, called Xia Xuan, the two people since the opening of the school, more than two months, only to eat together four or five times, and then there is just the daily Xia Xuan's routine greetings, between the two, it seems to have been as plain as a cup of water.

In the face of Tang Jia's invitation, Xia Xuan never refused, but this time, unexpectedly, Xia Xuan shirked, which surprised Tang Jia at the same time, only to find that the two people seemed to have not communicated for a long time, and even did not know what the other party was busy with recently, which made tang Jia's guilt in her heart even heavier.

Tang Jia was ready to go out and buy something for Xia Xuan, to enhance the relationship between the two of them, but also to alleviate his guilt, of course, this is just Tang Jia's wishful thinking.

Xia Xuan's mood suddenly became worse, originally the high school classmates gathered, the mood of seeing the old classmates was still quite good, not to mention there were several good sisters, as well as former suitors, but this good mood, after receiving Tang Jia's call, suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The consequence of the poor mood is that Xia Xuan is drunk.

After Tang Jia bought some snacks on the side of the road to fill his stomach, he began to pick out gifts for Xia Xuan, but he was discouraged to find that he did not even know what Xia Xuan liked, and after discovering this fact, Tang Jia complained more and more about himself.

With the help of the clerk, Tang Jia racked her brains to reminisce, and finally bought a set of skin care products and a few small headdresses.

When he returned to school, Tang Jia found that there were several missed calls from Xia Xuan, it seemed that the mobile phone was turned into silent mode during class, and when he returned to the dormitory, Shi Lei forgot to tune back in a dozen forks, hurriedly dialed back, but prompted to shut down.

On the way back to the dormitory, Tang Jia has been calling Xia Xuan, but has been prompting to shut down, back to the dormitory, except for Shi Lei, everyone is in, and they casually chatted a few words, Tang Jia picked up the mobile phone to dial Zhong Xu.

Zhong Xu just "fed" a sound, Tang Jia quickly said: "Zhong Xu, is Xia Xuan in the dormitory?" ”

"Ah! No, I'm not here! She didn't come with you today? I went out in the morning, and I haven't come back yet! Zhong Xu replied cleanly.

"Oh! I know. Tang Jia hung up the phone after he finished.

After hanging up the phone, Tang Jia suddenly felt irritable, so he turned off the phone, sat by the computer and played the game, played for less than five minutes, and nervously picked up the mobile phone to turn on, but there was still no text message, and disappointed to put the mobile phone on the table.

Wei Cheng came over and called tang jia to his dormitory for some drinks, and tang jia answered the call and went out with the key, forgetting the mobile phone on the table.

Two hours later, Tang Jia drunkenly returned to the dormitory, brushed his teeth casually, and climbed onto the bed to sleep, not caring that there was no one on Shi Lei's bed.

The next day, at six o'clock, Tang Jia was shaken awake in the haze, and Shi Lei's whole person was a little godless, his eyes were bloodshot, he kept yawning, standing under the bed looking at Tang Jia.

"Let's go out for a bite to eat and talk by the way!" Shi Lei said very seriously.

"Neurosis, I woke up and said." Tang Jia muttered in his mouth and turned his head to continue sleeping.

"Xia Xuan was with me last night!" Shi Lei said this and turned around and closed the door and left the dormitory.

"Mother's" Tang Jia scolded in his mouth, drowsiness, climbed out of bed and casually put a piece of clothing on his body and chased out.

As soon as he opened the dormitory door, Shi Lei stood there with a cigarette.

Tang Jia calmed down and said, "What's going on?" Although I tried to be as calm as possible, my voice changed.

"Xia Xuan drank too much last night, and you didn't answer the phone call, so she called me." Shi Lei threw the cigarette on the ground and stomped on it fiercely.

"So you took her to open the house?" Tang Jia was a little anxious, and took a step forward, trying to push Shi Lei, but took a few steps back.

"She drank too much last night, I threw up when I went, the whole person was not normal, crying and laughing, and then it was almost twelve o'clock, I arranged for her to live outside, left her a few high school female classmates to take care of her, I woke up in the morning I came back, let's go!" Talk as you go! Looking at Tang Jia, who was stunned, Shi Lei sighed and said.

"Wait a minute, get your phone." Tang Jia said something, but found that he did not have the key with him.

Shi Lei opened the door in disgust and shook his head.

Tang Jia entered the door and took the mobile phone, in fact, just at that moment, Tang Jia confirmed his own thoughts, when he heard Shi Lei say that sentence, he was actually relieved in his heart, at this time, Tang Jia was more of a moral condemnation of himself.

As soon as I got my mobile phone at the door, Xia Xuan's phone rang in.

"Let's break up!" Xia Xuan said these five words when she opened her mouth, as always, and there was no mud or water in her tone.

"Hmmm!" After Tang Jia said this word, it seemed that the strength of his whole body had been drained, was he still reluctant in his heart, Tang Jia could not say the feeling, anyway, it was like something slipped away from his side, and he couldn't say what it was.

Hanging up the phone cleanly, Xia Xuan wiped the corners of her eyes, but found that there were no tears, took a big sip of the porridge bowl, raised her head and turned to the shop owner and shouted: "Boss, add another cage of buns." ”
