No. 14 Not a Tragic Heroine

  The next day at school. It wasn't as lively as on the forum.

  After all, not many people can surf the internet at home in the evening. However, there are always people staring at Xiaomi from time to time in the crowd, accompanied by snickering and whispers. Xiaomi even feels that someone is secretly taking pictures of her with their mobile phone. This kind of blatant voyeurism makes her feel very uncomfortable. If they're really interested in her as a person, they can just come find her directly. What's the point of hiding far away and taking her picture?

  For a moment, she wanted to call home. Taking pictures without her consent wasn't illegal but was an invasion of privacy, right? But... the family teachings echoed in her ears: Don't let others take responsibility for your own affairs. She gritted her teeth and endured it. She had to think of a way to solve this herself.

  But how to solve it?

  It was early in the morning. The male lead from the rumors stopped her at the bottom of the teaching building where people were passing by. "Want to have breakfast together?" Han Qi held up a paper bag with an M printed on it.

  "I've eaten already." Xiao Mi pouted, thinking to herself that tonight on the forum there will definitely be many posts titled "Han Qi's foolish heart delivers breakfast to a certain girl".

  Han Qi sniffled. In a soft and sweet voice, she said: "You heartless thing! I've been waiting for you all morning. You ate first!"

  "Oh! Honey! I'm sorry!" Xiao Mi frowned slightly, her hands clasped together in a gesture of apology.

  "Hehe, then you accompany me to eat." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Mi's refusal, he forcefully pulled up her hand and walked towards the playground.

  Xiaomi suddenly felt countless eyes on her. She turned around and looked up, and indeed there were many eyes on the corridors of each floor that didn't have time to dodge.

  Why are these people staring at her like this? Before getting to know Han Qi, no one paid attention to her. Although she has been on this campus for almost half a year, these faces are still so unfamiliar to her. And to these people, she is the same. Never understood, never knew. That's why they want to pay attention, I suppose.

  Because I don't understand, so I want to understand. It's not a bad thing, is it?

  She blinked. The free book, provided by Wenren Book House, was grabbed by Han Qi (because his hand wanted to pull it out - ?? - b). Facing these curious eyes, he burst into a bright smile and waved the other arm towards the teaching building with vigor:

  "Good! Haha!"

  Then he didn't care if anyone responded or how they responded. He turned around and followed Han Qi as he walked away.

  She didn't know that her innocent smile had unknowingly killed off many innocent young male fans, and also unintentionally stirred up the jealousy of many innocent young female fans.

  Of course. There are also many people who are caught by the parties for peeping and become flustered and red-faced. That's how people are. The more you hide, yield, and remain silent, the more they will take advantage of you. But if you boldly ask them about it, they will be embarrassed instead.

  At this moment, Han Qi sat on the grass in a corner of the playground with Xiao Mi. He handed her a cup of juice while gazing deeply at her smiling face under the sunlight. This little girl would never be a tragic heroine.

  Xiaomi pouted and sucked juice with a straw, unaware of the changes in the eyes of the people around her.

  "Xiaomi." A soft call.

  "What's wrong?"

  "Do you want to kiss?" A gentle probe.

  "......" Xiaomi stared intently at the lid of the juice cup. Seriously and attentively drinking juice. Trying to pretend she didn't hear. But her bright red face betrayed her.

  "What's wrong? You weren't so shy the first time either?" Han Qi said with a sly smile. This girl's reactions always exceeded his expectations. He thought she would respond with an innocent face and say "I do" or with a calm face and say "I don't". How come now, she looked like a pure and innocent little girl again?

  Stretch out your hand and take it down

  The cup in her hand. He took advantage of the situation to lean closer to her. The pervert continued to tease: "I haven't seen you since yesterday afternoon. Don't you miss me at all?"

  Xiaomi turned her head, gazing at him with a thoughtful expression. She didn't evade his eyes as he slowly drew closer.

  "I kind of miss you..." The last "ne" disappeared in the touch of their lips. Han Qi looked at Xiao Mi slowly closing her eyes with trust. Those long and slightly curled eyelashes moved him...

  Gentle and polite lips. After a little entanglement, they separate again and again, only to hug each other once more. Like a pair of dancing white cranes, there is no entwinement, no invasion, only beauty.

  Good. Han Qi left her. Saw a slightly shy and bright smile. Felt satisfied in his heart. "Hmm, there's progress." His fingers lightly scratched the tip of Xiao Mi's nose.

  "Hehe." Xiao Mi mischievously smiled. "This time no neck pain!" He stretched his waist with a big yawn.

  "Ah... The weather is really nice! Such great weather and we still have to go to class. What a waste!" He picked up his backpack and stood up. Turning around, he stretched out his hand to Han Qi. "Let's go. We have class."

  Those smiling eyes, full of warm sunshine.

  "Let's go!" grabbed Xiao Mi's hand. Han Qi slowly stood up.

  Tong Xiaomi, who was about to enter the classroom, was blocked by Mei Xue at the corner of the stairs.

  "You're quite something. Can't tell from looking at you. You're really deep." Mei Xue stared at Tong Xiaomi's eyes with a cold smile.

  "Hmm..." she started. Tong Xiaomi didn't understand why she was like this. Then, vaguely remembering what she said about being a fan of H.O.T., "I... I forgot to tell you..." Things mostly happened beyond her expectations.

  "Forgot? Are you kidding me? Do you think people are idiots?" The more she spoke, the angrier she became. Mei Xue raised her voice. If she had said that she deliberately concealed her acquaintance with Han Qi from her, she might not have been so angry. That's a woman's mentality. She naturally understood. But she actually said she forgot. Doesn't she put people in her eyes at all?

  "No... I didn't think things would turn out like this either..." Xiao Mi really didn't know how to explain. Hurriedly grabbing Mei Xue's hand, "Hey, don't be angry yet. Can't I tell you later?"

  Mei Xue raised an eyebrow. "Are you telling the truth or playing tricks on me again?"

  "Really! Really!" Little Mi nodded heavily. Suddenly thought of something, eyes lit up, raised her head and said: "I'll take a photo of him for you when I have the chance!"

  After saying that sentence, Xiaomi's heart skipped a beat. Why did she take it for granted that they would meet again? And why was she so confident that he would let her take his picture?

  "Alright!" Mei Xue immediately forgot her anger. With a bright smile, she said, "It would be even better if I could take the photos myself. All my previous ones were secretly taken and none of them were properly shot from the front." Mei Xue stuck out her tongue.

  "Uh." Xiao Mi suddenly lost her confidence from earlier. "I'll take a photo of it and send it to you first. Then we can look for another opportunity..."

  "Ah!" Mei Xue gave a big hug to Xiao Mi. She knocked on her forehead with her knuckles and said, "You little thing! Good luck!" Holding onto Tong Xiao Mi's neck, she walked towards the classroom.

  "But how did you guys get so close?"

  "I'm not very familiar with him..."

  "Found out! You deceived me again. Don't we eat together?"

  "I'm serious! It hurts!"

  "Cut it out! I don't believe you. You're so familiar with each other! Tell me honestly what's going on?"

  "It's like this..."

  "What!! Is it true or false?!"

  ……

  In the corridor. The voices of two people gradually fade away. Disappear in the gentle breeze of April.
