Chapter 18 The West Lake

18

Du Ronghan has always had no shortage of suitors around him. This is true in junior high school, and even more so in high school. A group of nerds who study hard will hand her carefully folded love letters to her after school, turn around and leave, and don’t even say love words. The little dandy who is good at studying is quite tasty. She holds flowers and brightly colored snacks and stands in the place where Du Ronghan passes, pretending to be an accidental encounter, and her mouth is sweet and as if she is smearing honey.

Du Ronghan has only done two things for so many years, learning and driving away the lingering flies around him. Until that day, a female classmate told her that if you have a boyfriend, you might be able to study more attentively.

Du Ronghan accepted the female classmate's advice. Based on the principle of getting along day and night, she focused on Li Zhishui, the only boy who had never sent her a love letter.

In addition to class time, Du Ronghan was always talking about irrelevant topics by Li Zhishui, but Li Zhishui seemed not willing to accept Du Ronghan's throwing into his arms. This instead inspired Du Ronghan's desire to explore in his heart. Why is a man who doesn't love beauty but only loves learning?

The appearance of Gundam made Du Ronghan's wishful thinking go to nothing. He thought that those suitors would retreat when they found a "boyfriend", but unexpectedly brought endless disasters to Li Zhishui. Du Ronghan looked at Li Zhishui with a bruised and swollen face, and felt guilty in his heart. He kept pestering Li Zhishui for a moment. She felt that only in this way could she make up for the pain brought to Li Zhishui.

Du Ronghan, who has never been to school since Li Zhishui and has achieved second-rate grades, applied for the normal school entrance examination with his family and the teacher's shook his head and sighed.

From the day she entered university, she devoted all her energy to studying, and had no time to worry about things outside the window, and was devoted to studying and thinking about Li Zhishui.

Compared with high school suitors, college animals have many tricks. Those playboys who drive luxury cars and hold beautiful women from a family that can dominate the country can always carefully design an irresistible courtship.

Unfortunately, in Du Ronghan's eyes, she was still a pediatrician, and she could not shake her unwavering determination at all.

In college, we need to evaluate school beauty. Not to mention college, middle school, elementary school, even in kindergarten, good-looking things can make teachers and classmates look at each other more, not to mention that everyone loves beauty. Who doesn’t want to see more beautiful things?

After three years in college, Du Ronghan firmly ranked first in the school beauty rankings, with a group of followers who dare not play with them from afar. Even the lecturers who have just taken office and become teachers have to sigh that if they give up this opportunity, it will be a lifelong regret.

The lecturer of foreign literature is a young man. He has been in normal university for less than a year. His family background and academic appearance have always been full of classes. His lectures are full of passion, which makes the "dinosaur girl" who has no natural conditions and looks ordinary. If he can get favor from a handsome man, foreign literature this semester must get full marks.

Unfortunately, the young lecturer named Cao Xian had a very clean lifestyle and never had any contact with female colleagues and female students. He was as clean as a piece of white paper, but he only looked at Du Ronghan with a different eye.

Cao Xian, who often walks on campus with a book called "Wuthering Heights", will bring screams everywhere. In class, as long as Du Ronghan is seen, Cao Xian will inadvertently mention the protagonist in "Wuthering Heights", the abandoned son Heathcliff who ran away from home because of humiliation and love.

This person's fate is somewhat imaginative of Li Zhishui. Whenever he talks about this, Cao Xian can observe the subtle changes on Du Ronghan's face. He is cultured, knowledgeable and well-educated, and knows that he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. He really wants to enter Du Ronghan's heart and find out.

Du Ronghan seemed to have noticed something. Every time he gave a lecture, he could talk about this unrelated topic. If it wasn't unintentional, it was intentional. She never compared Li Zhishui with that cruel abandoned son. Li Zhishui was gentle and kind, with a woman's delicateness. She went out to escape because of her pursuit.

Therefore, every time Du Ronghan returns to Guicheng during holidays, he always inquire about Li Zhishui's news, and also reminds Tiedan and Mule to notify him as soon as possible if there is any situation.

Seeing the obsessed figure standing in front of him inadvertently, countless possibilities flashed through Li Zhishui's mind. If it were a chance encounter, life would be too bloody. It must be that guy Tiedan who had informed him.

In fact, Li Zhishui took the initiative to come to Hangzhou, and had a little selfish intention. He asked in person whether they were considered first love at that time? Unexpectedly, Du Ronghan actually came to him on his own initiative.

With a ponytail, a fitted casual T-shirt, white jeans, a pair of white sneakers on her feet, and a not-fancy canvas bag hanging on her shoulders. Du Ronghan, who was standing at the door, looked into the office. There was only a stranger inside, and he did not find Li Zhishui's shadow. Could it be that Tiedan's information was wrong?

She knocked on the door, walked in and said, "May I ask, is Li Zhishui here?"

Li Zhishui stood up awkwardly, without directly identifying his identity, and calmly replied: "Who are you? Is there anything you need to do with him?"

Hearing the answer, it means that Li Zhishui is really here. Du Ronghan dispelled his doubts and said without thinking: "I am his...girlfriend."

Only then did Li Zhishui think that the girl who was pestering her to sit with him every day and studying as pure as a girl next door had long regarded herself as someone else's boyfriend in her heart. Unfortunately, the creation made people so that your boyfriend was right in front of you, but you didn't recognize her.

"Du Ronghan, I'm what you are looking for...Li Zhishui."

Hearing this sentence suddenly, Du Ronghan screamed and fled from the office.

...

At the end of July, the shore of Xizi Lake was extremely hot. A man and a woman strolling by the lake attracted the attention of passers-by. The girl held a sun umbrella in her hand and the boy dragged a trolley case in her hand. At a glance, you could tell that it was a young couple who came to Hangzhou from other places to play. They didn't want to miss the beautiful scenery of West Lake at any time.

"Is it hot?" asked Li Zhishui, who was sweating profusely.

"Yes." Du Ronghan nodded in front of him.

"You can sweat a little first, wait for me for a while." Li Zhishui took out a tissue from his body, handed it to Du Ronghan, dragged the trolley case to the side of the road, walked dozens of meters, bought an ice cream from the convenience store on the road crossing the sidewalk, and then returned the same way.

Du Ronghan looked at all this and smiled knowingly. After three years, she had been waiting, and finally she did not let down her infatuation. The boy was still so agile.

Li Zhishui carefully tore open the wrapping paper on it and handed the ice cream over: "Eat it."

Du Ronghan took a light bite, and his eyebrows and eyes smiled and said, "Sweet."

The word "sweet" makes Li Zhishui feel much cooler, which may be the taste of first love.

Li Zhishui was facing the scorching sun, and sweat poured down his face. Du Ronghan suggested finding a place with shade to sit for a while, saying that Liu Langwenying was a good place.

Sitting on the bench and eating the cool ice cream, Du Ronghan smiled happily on his face.

"You have been doing well in the past few years?" Du Ronghan asked in a low voice after thinking for a while.

Li Zhishui talked about the bitter past of these years. In three years, two years were on the road, and only the last year was still like a personal one.

These sad past events that cannot be experienced and empathized with by themselves made Du Ronghan cry, leaned against Li Zhishui's shoulder, and said lightly: "Can we still start over?"

Li Zhishui rubbed Du Ronghan's head and said affectionately: "I have never stopped, so how can I start over?"

Du Ronghan ran to Yuhang early in the morning and received a notice from Tiedan and rushed back without stopping. He listened to the beautiful singing of birds and birds, and felt the empty croaking in his belly.

As a native of Guicheng, Du Ronghan, who does not like spicy food, has a special liking for sweets. He chose lunch in a restaurant by the West Lake. Du Ronghan could not escape the fate of smart people who love to eat fish. He ordered a West Lake vinegar fish plus two appetizers and two bowls of rice to eat happily.

After dinner, Li Zhishui suggested going to the mall again. Du Ronghan, who was sweating profusely, did not suppress Li Zhishui's enthusiasm. He couldn't bear to see Du Ronghan sweating heavily on foot and hiking, so Li Zhishui called a car and went directly to Hangzhou Building.

Although it was his first time here, Li Zhishui knew that perhaps only the clothes here could be worthy of Du Ronghan.

In the hot summer, Du Ronghan, wearing short skirts and big white legs, had thought about wearing skirts, but she was afraid that the drooling beasts would stare at them like nails.

Li Zhishui picked a long dress with a little bustling look. In the complex eyes of the little shopping guide girl dressed up in a charming manner, Du Ronghan changed into a skirt and walked out. The salesperson, who always treated customers, sighed from the bottom of his heart, beauty.

"How is this?" Li Zhishui asked.

Du Ronghan in front of the mirror turned the circle, and after being happy, hesitantly asked the price. When he heard the five-digit answer, he entered the fitting room without hesitation and changed it back quickly.

"It's too expensive, so don't want it." Du Ronghan handed the skirt to the salesperson and pulled Li Zhishui away.

"I think it looks pretty, please buy it." Li Zhishui paid for Du Ronghan and the salesperson's surprise eyes to leave with his clothes.

Although the weather was hot, it was up to whom I was going to be with. At this time, the two of them walked around and walked around almost all the scenic spots by the lake. The lights were on, and the two of them who were still unwilling to leave.

It’s not impossible for Du Ronghan to go back to school at this time, but when he thought of coming here tomorrow, he always felt troublesome and said without hesitation: “It’s getting dark, so why don’t we have dinner and open a room to rest.”

Li Zhishui suddenly stopped, caught Du Ronghan's proposal off guard, and stood there blankly. He was not ready for this.
