C1 (1/2)
The sun was like fire, as if it was about to roast a person dry.
He saw a thin woman wearing a white cotton nightgown. Her eyes were red and her eyelids were swollen. One look was enough to tell that she had been crying for a very long time. Her long hair was disheveled, and she was leaning against the iron railing barefooted. Her snow-white, delicate hands were supporting her chin, while her unfocused, lifeless eyes were looking into the distance.
”Ling Ling, today is our graduation ceremony, are you sure you don't want to go?” Before the person even arrived, the voice came from afar. The voice was beautiful, but there was a hint of worry in it.
The girl was still leaning on the wall in a daze, as if she hadn't heard someone call her. The door was opened by someone. A girl with pink cheeks and peach blossoms cautiously stuck her head in and peeked at the girl in white cotton pajamas on the balcony.
Seeing that girl not moving at all, she couldn't help but let out a faint sigh. It looks like, this matter really caused Ling Ling quite a bit of harm, and she didn't know when she would be able to walk out from inside.
She lightly closed the door, walked towards Ling Ling, and stood by her side. Her pure white jade hands waved in front of Ling Ling, and seeing that Ling Ling did not react at all, she became even more worried.
After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he opened his mouth and said, ”Um, um, Ling Ling, hm, look, today is our graduation ceremony, are you really not going?”
The woman leaned on the railing, rubbing her hands back and forth uneasily. She really wasn't confident …
After she finished speaking, she did not dare look at Ling Ling, but instead looked down the stairs with unease. After about two or three minutes, she saw that there was no movement around her, and could not help but be surprised for a bit, but did not dare to move too much.
Thus, he could only turn his eyes around and secretly size Ling Ling up.
Seeing that she hadn't changed her actions at all, he couldn't help but feel infuriated.
”Sigh!” I say, Yu Lingling! Can you pull yourself together? Look at you now! How could she still have the slightest bit of Yu Lingling's appearance? Didn't she just break up with that bastard? Was there a need to be like this?! Look at your current appearance, you don't look even a bit like the original high-spirited Yu Lingling! ”
The woman really could not bear to watch any longer, and had no choice but to grab onto Yu Lingling's shoulders and break it apart with her two hands.
He was shocked, ”Aiyah, aiyo, don't cry, don't cry!” He forcefully pulled Yu Lingling over, and upon seeing it, he immediately became flustered.
”I say, my little ancestor, don't cry! It's okay if I'm wrong, but if I don't say it, then I won't say it. Don't cry, don't cry! ”
”Little Blue, I, my heart is broken!” Yu Lingling turned around and suddenly started crying. She hugged He Lanxin and cried non-stop.
”I know I know, Ling Ling, just cry, just cry, just cry!” He Lanxin secretly glanced at Yu Lingling's tightly pressed left shoulder, and quietly looked at her clothes that had a price of one or two thousand.
He sniffed with a face full of tears.
He Lanxin patted Yu Lingling's back as she consoled herself with the pain in her heart. Suddenly, Yu Lingling stood up, staring at He Lanxin with a serious face without saying a word.
”You, you, you …” Under Yu Lingling's wolf-like eyes, He Lanxin carefully retreated backwards while trembling in fear. ”Don't look at me like that, I didn't abandon you …”
”Lanxin” Yu Lingling squinted as he stared at He Lanxin, his eyes gleaming with a gloomy light ”Are you hurting your clothes?!”
”Ugh …” He Lanxin's heart trembled, since when did she become a worm in her stomach? He Lanxin silently looked at her stomach, and gestured with both of her hands, ”How can her small stomach hold such a big worm?”
”Ah, why did you hit me!” ”Seeing He Lanxin's thoughtful look, Yu Lingling of course knew what she was thinking! What do you think I should hit you for? ” He glared at He Lanxin, ”Based on the way you were acting just now, you must be thinking about something bad.”
”Ugh …” He Lanxin rubbed the shoulder that was hit by Yu Lingling, and silently took a step back.
”Hey, Ling Ling, are you still going to attend today's graduation ceremony?” Seeing that Ling Ling's mood had improved, Lanxin felt much more relaxed in her heart.
Looking at Lanxin, whose expression had lightened considerably, she also felt guilty in her heart. If it wasn't for her, Lanxin wouldn't be this worried.
”Lanxin, I really don't have the mood to go. You two can go, and let me be by myself for a while.” Yu Lingling sighed, as she faintly looked into the distance.
”You're really not going?” Seeing Ling Ling's haggard face, He Lanxin's heart ached: ”Ling Ling, you ….” The comforting words reached her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. If she said too much, it would hurt her feelings.
Yu Lingling shook her head: ”Lanxin, I really don't want to go. Yesterday's matter is already embarrassing enough, but I don't want to lose face today's ceremony. ”Therefore, I better not go …”
Hearing her words, Lanxin also became silent. She had personally witnessed yesterday's matter, if it were yesterday's matter, she probably wouldn't even have the mood to joke with her today.
Sighing, she said, ”Alright, Ling Ling, take a good rest today, then I...” Lanxin gestured a few times with her hands. Seeing this, Yu Lingling also understood that everyone was going to attend today's ceremony, and she wanted to be alone and think carefully about what she should do next.
”Lanxin, go ahead, I will be fine, don't worry.” Yu Lingling forced a smile, but when Lanxin saw this, she silently patted Ling Ling's shoulder.
”Have a good rest.” With that, He Lanxin pushed the door open and walked out.
Downstairs, Lanxin worriedly raised her head to look at Yu Lingling who was leaning on the balcony on the second floor.
