Love Talk
A person hid away and cried.
How embarrassing!
Girls like that will be looked down upon, just like Yan Xiang and Zhao Yu from earlier. Even though they are the richest in the dormitory and have the highest quality of life, with designer bags and luxury goods that they can only dream of, every time they open their three-layered lipstick gift box, they receive looks of amazement and envy, or even hidden jealousy.
When a girl's vanity is satisfied, she feels so happy and proud. That's when she truly sees herself, not when she's being ridiculed like this... Maybe they didn't mean to ridicule her, they just felt sorry for her.
She's the kind of girl who's perfectly content with designer bags, cosmetics, and pretty dresses, so why should she care about Liu Chang'an?
Bai Hui wiped away her tears and quickly took out her makeup bag. What if her eyeliner got smudged? Liu Chang'an might say she looked like... whatever he says!
Bai Hui's shoulders shrugged, and she sniffled, looking at her pathetic reflection in the mirror. She pouted and reluctantly took out her eyeliner.
Willow branches sway outside the window.
There was once a dynasty called the Tang Dynasty Tang Dynasty, and a poet named Bai Juyi. Bai Hui studied one of his poems, "Willow Twigs." When Bai Juyi was strolling around Yongfengfang in Luoyang, he saw a deserted garden in the southwest corner. He went inside and saw a huge weeping willow tree with golden branches that swayed softly like a young girl's hair. Inspired by this, he wrote this poem:
A tree in spring breeze, with thousands of branches, tenderer than gold and softer than silk.
In the vegetable garden at the west corner of Yongfeng, who owns it all day long?
Why must one attract so many visitors like the magnificent peonies blooming in Luoyang? Instead of being like Liu Chang'an and An Nuan, who desperately want everyone to know how loving they are, one should be like the Yongfeng willow. One can live a fulfilling life alone, and one day be appreciated, just like Emperor Xuanzong of Tang who plucked a branch from the Yongfeng willow and planted it in the palace, becoming famous throughout the land.
"When you feel tears welling up, if you stand upside down, the tears will stop flowing."
When you can't hold back your tears, open your eyes wide and don't blink. You'll see the world go from clear to blurry, and your heart will become clear and lucid the moment your tears fall. Salt is destined to melt, perhaps through tears.
Guan Yuan leaned against the wall, gazing calmly out the window, softly uttering moving words. Turning to face Bai Hui, she said, "I didn't mean to spy, but you didn't close the door when you were putting on makeup, and I saw your crying face in the mirror."
Bai Hui knew that the first sentence Guan Yuan said was spoken by Hua Ze Lei in "Meteor Garden," but she didn't expect that Guan Yuan would run over as soon as Liu Chang'an went downstairs to get something to eat.
"Have you gained weight recently?" Guan Yuan looked at Bai Hui, her brows furrowing slightly, looking somewhat dissatisfied.
"No." Bai Hui didn't want to talk to him, but this issue had to be clarified. Bai Hui had been carefully dieting recently because for a girl like her, if she lost weight and also lost breast size, it would be a loss... Although she hadn't lost a lot of weight, she was certain she hadn't gained any.
"Then why do you hold an increasingly important place in my heart?" Guan Yuan replied humorously.
Bai Hui looked at Guan Yuan, her cheeks puffed out, and something involuntarily gushed out of her throat. She hurriedly tried to warn Guan Yuan with her eyes, but she couldn't help but open her mouth and vomited, spraying all the water and juice she had drunk that day onto Guan Yuan.
It was only about 70-80% nauseous, but when people cry, their bodies feel more uncomfortable and they are more prone to vomiting.
It really wasn't intentional.
Bai Hui hurriedly took out a tissue to wipe her mouth. Although she disliked Guan Yuan, as a girl who was very conscious of her image, she still felt apologetic and ashamed that something like this had happened. "I'm sorry, you disgusted me... no, it was what you said... I didn't mean that... I just drank too much water..."
Bai Hui explained a few words, tossed down a pack of tissues, and hurriedly ran away, leaving the downstairs bathroom for him to use.
Guan Yuan stood there, stunned. Even though she was Bai Hui, the girl Guan Yuan was pursuing, this was still incredibly embarrassing! Guan Yuan involuntarily glanced at his phone. Those were all touching love quotes he'd searched for online—how could they have had such an effect?
Bai Hui went upstairs to the bathroom to rinse her mouth and touch up her makeup, feeling a sense of relief. Guan Yuan was truly embarrassing; what girl wouldn't feel disgusted after hearing such words? It really wasn't her fault; who told him to say such nauseating things?
I wonder if Liu Chang'an says such disgusting things when he's with An Nuan? Probably. I remember Liu Chang'an saying to An Nuan, "Wherever you go, I'll go," wasn't that just another pretentious, cheesy, disgusting, affected, and tacky pickup line?
Bai Hui returned to the media room and saw Yan Xiang and Zhao Yu sitting there chatting and laughing. She didn't know if they were talking to Li Hongman about the topics they had just discussed. Bai Hui's smile remained unchanged. She plopped down on the sofa, her legs, clad in white stockings, swaying back and forth. The shoes were still the ones Zhu Juntang had given her, with diamond-encrusted Butterfly fluttering on them, making them very beautiful.
"What about Liu Chang'an? He's not singing anymore?" Bai Hui asked frankly.
Yan Xiang and Zhao Yu exchanged a glance, and Zhao Yu said with a smile, "You've missed me already after just a short while?"
Bai Hui playfully punched Zhao Yu, "What are you saying... I was just texting his girlfriend, and she asked if there were any unwanted suitors around trying to seduce Liu Chang'an. She asked me to keep an eye on Liu Chang'an. Liu Chang'an's girlfriend... she's the only one who treats Liu Chang'an like a treasure, thinking everyone else is after Liu Chang'an... Hehe... Let's sing a duet! I really want to sing 'Rooftop'... Liu Chang'an even said something like, 'You should be on the Rooftop, and I should be under the car,' it cracked me up..."
Bai Hui, as always, led everyone with her cheerful and casual conversation. Yan Xiang and Zhao Yu exchanged glances again, said nothing, and smiled as they asked Li Hongman knew the song, to sing it with Bai Hui.
Liu Chang'an wasn't on the Rooftop or under the car; he was drinking orange juice in the living room.
"Why didn't Yan Qingcheng come?" Liu Chang'an asked Qin Zhiqiang, who was playing games on the side. Qin Zhiqiang didn't want to come, but Sun Shutong persuaded him not to seem too unsociable and that not actively participating in class activities could lead to isolation. So Qin Zhiqiang came and stayed in the corner of the sofa playing games.
Liu Chang'an also asked the blind man for advice. Qin Zhiqiang finished his dungeon run, had enough crystals (280), casually made a draw, and listlessly tapped around on his phone screen. He leaned back on the sofa and sighed, "Yan Qingcheng is actually second in our class."
"Yan Qingcheng said she wasn't feeling well and didn't come, so I'm in full charge here today," Wei Xuanyi said confidently, feeling more confident in being in charge himself.
Tomorrow is the class monitor election. At such an important time, Yan Qingcheng actually gave up the opportunity to show herself and make a deeper impression on her classmates. It has to be said that she has alienated herself from the people. Wei Xuanyi already feels that he will be the class monitor starting tomorrow.
Liu Chang'an had only asked casually, and wasn't particularly concerned about Yan Qingcheng. After sitting for a while and not seeing Guan Yuan, who should have been very enthusiastic in this situation, he prepared to go upstairs to find Bai Hui.
"Liu Chang'an, let's play a game of billiards!" Lin Feng suddenly cut in from the side and walked up to Liu Chang'an.
From the moment Liu Chang'an came downstairs, Lin Feng had been watching Liu Chang'an intently. Had he been watching him for so long just to get this opportunity to play pool with Liu Chang'an? Was he particularly skilled at pool and planning to humiliate Liu Chang'an in this area, hoping to avenge his previous defeat and get revenge?
Of course not, he was just stopping him. Liu Chang'an very politely grabbed Lin Feng's shoulder, pulled him aside, and walked upstairs.
