Good Luck Time - Chap 8
Tao Sizhi fell into melancholy all afternoon, wavering between sleeping on the balcony and going to school.
He didn’t want to choose any one. He felt that his world was dark and it was difficult to concentrate during class. The teacher seemed to be lecturing in the next classroom, and his voice reached Tao Sizhi’s ears vaguely.
In the chaos, Tao Sizhi felt that she had heard keywords such as “day reading” and “balcony”.
At half past five, school is over.
Tao Sizhi packed up her schoolbag, slung it on her shoulders, and walked out slowly.
The teaching building is a bit far away from the gate. Halfway there, you can see the dormitory building in the distance. Tao Sizhi stood still under a sycamore tree, looking at the dormitory reluctantly. He grabbed the hanging strap of his schoolbag and used the pad of his thumb to Gently rub the sharp corners of the strap.
He stood there for a long time. Perhaps Tao Siyuan couldn’t wait for him for a long time, so he called him.
Tao Sizhi looked around and didn’t see the teacher, so he picked up and told his brother that he was on his way to the school gate again.
”How long will it take for you to arrive?” Tao Siyuan asked him, “There is something urgent in my company. I have to rush there immediately. I will call you a car.”
Tao Sizhi had no choice but to stop looking, quickened his pace, walked to the school gate, and told his brother: “There are still six hundred steps.”
”Hurry up a little.” His brother spoke faster, showing his eagerness.
Tao Sizhi grabbed the strap of her schoolbag and started running. His athletic ability was not good, and he could hardly breathe when he ran to the school gate.
Tao Siyuan was wearing a black suit, standing next to the car, wearing headphones and talking on the phone. When he saw Tao Sizhi, he waved to him.
As soon as Tao Sizhi took two steps towards his brother, he suddenly found Jiang Ge standing not far from his brother. In the middle of the two people stood a short-haired middle-aged lady wearing a gray suit and skirt. They were both looking at Tao Sizhi.
His brother and Jiang Ge didn’t smile, but the lady smiled at him. As a polite response, Tao Sizhi also smiled at the lady.
When he walked up to them, Tao Siyuan hung up the phone and said to Tao Sizhi: “This is Mrs. Jiang, my brother’s client. I just happened to meet Mrs. Jiang picking up her son, and I found out that you and Jiang Ge live in the same dormitory.”
Tao Sizhi said hello to Mrs. Jiang and glanced at Jiang Ge, who was also looking at him.
Obviously, Jiang Ge’s eyes should have conveyed a message, but Tao Sizhi couldn’t receive it and felt a little sorry in his heart.
”Sizhi, Jiang Ge has a bad temper. I’m not bullying you, right?” Mrs. Jiang’s voice was full and her expression was very enthusiastic. She turned to Tao Siyuan and said, “Xiao Tao, you go ahead and I’ll help you get rid of Sizhi.” Send it back.”
Tao Sizhi looked at his brother, who pulled him aside and whispered to him: “Mrs. Jiang told me that her driver has been driving for her for eight years and has never had an insurance issue. Driving skills superb.”
Such a driver is hard to come by. It is much better than the online car-hailing service that his brother randomly found for him. Tao Sizhi happily agreed.
After thanking Mrs. Jiang, Tao Siyuan left in a hurry.
Mrs. Jiang’s driver helped Tao Sizhi put his schoolbag in the trunk and opened the door for him.
Tao Sizhi sat in the back row, and Jiang Ge also happened to sit in. He glared at Tao Sizhi. This time Tao Sizhi understood, and Jiang Ge’s eyes flashed fiercely.
Jiang Ge also said something to Tao Sizhi silently, but he said it a bit fast, and Tao Sizhi didn’t understand what he was saying.
Mrs. Jiang sat in the front row, looked back at Tao Sizhi and said, “Sizhi, you are cuter than in the photo Xiao Tao showed me.”
”Thank you.” Tao Sizhi smiled at Mrs. Jiang.
The car started, and the school gate outside the window slowly disappeared. Tao Sizhi was a little nervous in the new environment and put her hands in her pockets again.
”Sizhi,” Mrs. Jiang said, “I often hear your brother mention you, but I didn’t expect you and Jiang Ge to sleep together. Jiang Ge’s grades are not good, so I should learn more from you. If you encounter any problems in life, You can ask Jiang Ge to help you.”
As she said that, she suddenly asked Jiang Ge: “Really, Jiang Ge?”
Jiang Ge was quiet for a few seconds, then let out a low and quick “hmm”.
Tao Sizhi was overjoyed. He only needed Jiang Ge’s help for one thing: “Jiang Ge, can I not sleep in the sun next week -”
”——Okay, by the way, I remembered,” Jiang Ge suddenly interrupted him, staring into his eyes, his voice was a little low, and his words were a little strong, “Didn’t you say you wanted to draw cards yesterday? Let me help you. Smoke it.”
”Oh, okay,” Tao Sizhi’s attention was immediately diverted. He took out his mobile phone and opened the game. His diamonds were not full yet, so he rushed some money and handed it to Jiang Ge, “This way I can use it tonight. I can update my post now.”
Jiang Ge took Tao Sizhi’s cell phone, and Tao Sizhi leaned next to him, eager to see him draw cards, with her face almost touching Jiang Ge’s chin. Jiang Ge raised his hand several times, and finally raised it as if he couldn’t bear it anymore, and pushed Tao Sizhi’s head away a little.
”I can’t see the screen anymore,” Jiang Ge said.
”You guys have such a good relationship.” Mrs. Jiang said from the front.
”Well,” Jiang Ge finished counting the cards for Tao Sizhi, looked at Tao Sizhi again, and said to Mrs. Jiang, “I often help him draw cards in the game.”
Tao Sizhi can barely remember emotions.
Unlike what many people think, he can actually have happy emotions, as well as feel angry and anxious. However, in Tao Sizhi’s mind, strong and perceptual emotions are only current perceptions, which are always separated from the events on the timeline and cannot be separated from them. Called from memory again.
However, it is very strange to say that when Tao Sizhi thought back to that time after so many years, she seemed to be able to touch her happiness at that time, as if she was touching the cool breeze on a cloudy evening in late April.
Tao Sizhi sat on the edge of the bed, and he thought of Jiang Ge again.
Tao Sizhi felt empty when thinking about Jiang Ge, so he didn’t want to think too much.
He turned off the light and lay down, closing his eyes, but he began to feel as if he had forgotten something.
After tossing and turning, Tao Sizhi thought of it. He turned on the desk lamp again, pushed away the quilt, got out of bed and walked to the laundry basket, squatted down, took out the annual meeting lottery ticket from his coat pocket, and held it in his hand with peace of mind.
