A little note to commemorate today, Singles' Day.
He just blocked me.
Haha.
From "Su Zai Zai the Little Fairy's Diary"
After getting home. Su Zai Zai returned to her room and looked at her phone.
7:40 ΑΜ.
Not long after, Su Zai Zai heard the sounds of her parents getting up.
She rolled over in bed.
Thinking about what Zhang Lu Rang had said earlier, Su Zai Zai couldn't help but laugh in exasperation.
But when she recalled those four words, she decided to forgive him.
She wrapped herself up in the blanket.
After thinking for a bit, she sent a WeChat message to Zhang LuRang.
Su Zai Zai: Lu Rang, how are you getting to school tomorrow?
It took quite a while before Zhang Lu Rang replied.
-My uncle will drive me.
Su Zai Zai: Does your uncle usually drive you?
Zhang Lu Rang: Mm.
Su Zai Zai: Then why did you take the bus last time?
Zhang Lu Rang: He was on a business trip.
Su Zai Zai stared at the content on the screen, a bit lost in thought.
She wondered why he didn't live with his parents.
He didn't seem to want to talk about it.
So she didn't ask.
Su Zai Zai didn't reply anymore and left her room.
She walked to the living room, sat down next to her father, and said, "Dad, I want to get a dog."
Her father paused and poured her a glass of water, "Have a glass of water to calm down."
"I'm serious about getting one." Su Zai Zai refused the water directly, "I don't need to calm down."
A moment later, her mother came out of the bathroom.
She glanced at the two of them out of the corner of her eye, "What are you two talking about?"
"Daughter, you need to calm down." Her father was so anxious he was scratching his head.
But such words couldn't stop her at all, and Su Zai Zai immediately spoke up.
"Mom, I want to get a dog."
Her mother was stunned for a moment, then her face lit up with a smile, "My good daughter, what a coincidence, I want one too."
Her father: "
Su Zai Zai got excited right away and continued, "I want to get a Samoyed!"
Su Zai Zai was a bit disappointed, "Then what kind of dog?"
"A Corgi."
Su Zai Zai immediately protested, "No way! How can we get a Corgi? If I take it out for a walk in the morning, we might not make it back downstairs until evening!"
Her mother ignored her and turned to her father, "Old Su, stop watching, it's time to go to work."
Su Zai Zai leaned closer and tried to sweet-talk her mother, "Mom, wouldn't a Samoyed be nice? It's a smiling angel!"
Her mother gave her a glance and said slowly, "Either a Corgi or no dog."
"..." Su Zai Zai quickly gave in, "Fine, Corgi it is."
At least its short legs would highlight her long legs.
After her parents left, Su Zai Zai returned to her room.
She picked up her phone, just about to tell Zhang Lu Rang that she was getting a dog, when she saw a message from him.
It was sent five minutes after his last one.
- I can go by myself.
Su Zai Zai felt a bit puzzled.
What was the handsome guy trying to say?
Was he bragging about how capable he was, being able to get to school on his own?
Su Zai Zai didn't know what to make of it, but she decided to play along.
She proudly replied: I can go to school by myself too. I haven'tneeded my parents to take me since third grade. Am I just as brave as you?
After successfully sending it.
Su Zai Zai stared at her phone, waiting for Zhang Lu Rang's reply.
After a long time.
Su Zai Zai waited until she was about to fall asleep, her eyelids growing heavy.
In a drowsy state, she heard her phone ding twice.
But she couldn't shake off the pull of sleep and fell into a deep darkness.
When she woke up again, Su Zai Zai instinctively lit up her phone.
After unlocking it, she saw that she was still in the chat with Zhang Lu Rang.
"zir" retracted a message
"zlr" retracted a message
-Mm.
Su Zai Zai was completely confused.
She quickly asked him: What did you retract? And two messages?
Zhang Lu Rang: Nothing important.
Su Zai Zai got up in frustration, sitting cross-legged on the bed.
She propped her chin on her phone, thinking for a long time but couldn't figure out how to get him to reveal those two messages.
She was getting anxious and accused him: How dare you do something and not own up to it!
Zhang Lu Rang: ...
Su Zai Zai: If you don't tell me, I'll...
Su Zai Zai scratched her head, almost ready to kneel: Please, I'm begging you.
On the other end.
Zhang Lu Rang saw her messages and felt a bit helpless.
He put down his pen and seriously replied.
-It really wasn't anything important.
Her curiosity was left hanging, unresolved.
Su Zai Zai pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably annoyed.
Su Zai Zai: Haha.
Su Zai Zai: I never thought you were this kind of person.
Su Zai Zai: Let me tell you, if you don't tell me, I won't be able to get through the day.
Su Zai Zai: I won't be able to eat, sleep, or study well. I might as well be a wreck.
Zhang Lu Rang: ...
Seeing him send another ellipsis, Su Zai Zai got even angrier.
Didn't he see that she was upset? Didn't he know that this would only add fuel to the fire?
Just as she was about to continue scolding him, she suddenly noticed what she had just sent.
The two words at the top.
"Brother."
Su Zai Zai: "..."
...Oh no!
This damn autocorrect, this damn nine-key pinyin keyboard.
Su Zai Zai immediately tried to fix it.
But the more anxious she got, the more mistakes she made.
- No, what I meant to say was "hehe"!
No, no! I meant "hehe"!
He sent another ellipsis in response.
Su Zai Zai took a deep breath and decided to calm down.
She then slowed down and carefully typed out "hehe" using the 4-3-4-3 keys.
Seeing the options "哥哥"(brother),"呵呵"(hehe), and "喝喝" (drink drink) on the screen, she meticulously selected"呵呵" (hehe).
After confirming it was correct, she sighed in relief and happily pressed the green "Send" button.
To her surprise, the screen displayed a very long message.
"[zlr has enabled friend verification. You are not yet friends with him (or her). Please send a friend request, and once the other party has accepted, you can continue chatting.]"
Su Zai Zai: ""
Saturday afternoon.
Zhang Lu Rang returned to the classroom.
He was just about to get up to refill his water bottle.
When he touched it, he realized it was already filled.
And it was warm.
He didn't know who had refilled it for him.
Zhang Lu Rang hesitated for a moment but decided to go to the water dispenser to refill it anyway.
He stood up and was just about to leave when Su Zai Zai's head popped in through the window.
Seeing that he was back in the classroom, she smiled brightly and called out, "Lu Rang."
Zhang Lu Rang glanced at her but didn't say anything.
Noticing the water bottle in his hand, Su Zai Zai tried to please him.
"Is the temperature not right? I tested it on my hand before."
Zhang Lu Rang put his foot back and sat down in his seat.
Su Zai Zai also walked in from outside and sat in the seat in front of him.
Zhang Lu Rang picked up the water bottle and took a sip.
Su Zai Zai watched him and softly asked, "Are you feeling better from your cold?"
He responded with a low "mm."
After a while.
Su Zai Zai, after much internal debate, decided to use an angry tone.
She patted his desk and said angrily, "I can't believe you blocked me."
Zhang Lu Rang: "..."
Su Zai Zai shamelessly continued, "You're too much. Our friendship is so fragile. What's wrong with me calling you 'brother'? I'm definitely younger than you anyway."
"Even if you're younger than me, I still look younger than you. No matter how you look at it, I'm the younger one, so what's wrong with calling you 'brother'?"
Zhang Lu Rang couldn't hold back anymore and said in a deep voice, "Then I'll block you again."
Su Zai Zai: "... I was just messing with you."
Zhang Lu Rang lowered his head and picked up his pen to start working on his homework.
Su Zai Zai's mood instantly dropped, but she stubbornly continued, "That was the autocorrect's fault, you can't blame me for it."
"I didn't do it on purpose, why are you so mad..."
"I'm not mad," he replied.
Su Zai Zai propped her chin up with one hand, mumbling,"President Su came all the way here just to refill your water, and now you're giving President Su an attitude. President Su feels very hurt."
Zhang Lu Rang: "...I'm not."
Su Zai Zai was about to say more.
A girl suddenly walked in from outside.
Seeing Su Zai Zai sitting in her seat, the girl's expression immediately darkened.
Ye Zhenxin quickly walked over and rudely shouted, "Who are you? Can you stop sitting in other people's seats? So annoying!"
Su Zai Zai was completely stunned by the sudden outburst.
She immediately stood up and instinctively apologized.
Ye Zhenxin completely ignored her attempt to de-escalate, her face full of anger, pointing at the chair, "Wipe it clean. I hate it when others sit in my seat. It's disgusting."
People around them started to look over.
Su Zai Zai, overwhelmed by her intense emotions, felt a bit at a loss.
But thinking about it, she realized that she hadn't asked for permission before sitting in her seat.
So she might as well wipe it clean...
After thinking it through, she softly replied, "Oh."
Then she turned to Zhang Lu Rang, "Can you lend me some tissues?"
Zhang Lu Rang didn't move, tilting his head slightly so his gaze met hers.
After a brief silence, Zhang Lu Rang finally spoke.
"Su Zai Zai, go back."
Su Zai Zai blinked, "Don't send me away, I'll wipe it clean and then leave."
"I'll clean it for you," he said softly.
Su Zai Zai opened her mouth, intending to refuse.
There's no way she would let the handsome guy clean another girl's chair!
She would rather die!
After a while.
Zhang Lu Rang glanced at her, his eyes carrying a hint of reassurance.
Then he added, "I'll come find you later."
Su Zai Zai, dazed by the look in his eyes, forgot to refuse and obediently nodded before leaving the classroom.
Only after Su Zai Zai had left did Zhang Lu Rang stand up.
He took a cloth from the podium, went outside, and washed it in the bathroom.
Ye Zhenxin called out to him from behind.
But he acted as if he hadn't heard her.
When he returned to the classroom and saw Ye Zhenxin already sitting in her seat.
Zhang Lu Rang's gaze turned completely cold.
He didn't say a word.
After putting the cloth back, he walked back to his seat.
After a while.
Ye Zhenxin turned around and softly said, "I got a little too worked up earlier, I didn't mean to. I hope I didn't scare that girl."
Thinking about Su Zai Zai's stunned expression when she was scolded.
His anger inexplicably flared up.
Zhang Lu Rang tugged at the corner of his mouth and let out a mocking laugh.
"Get lost."
