Love Letters

Chapter 217 Whose heartbeat is it?

His closeness made their already closely-contacted bodies even closer, making it seem airtight.

The warm breath swept lightly, either sprinkling on the eyebrows or falling into the hair, bringing a subtle itch, like a feather scratching the heart.

The gentle breathing and the slight fragrance lingering at the tip of my nose, I couldn't tell whose it belonged to.

The temperature of the skin gradually rises, the hot bodies transmit each other's body temperature, and the palms on the lower back also become hot.

But he was still approaching her...

He Miao subconsciously took a step back until his back was against the wall and he had nowhere to retreat.

So, she simply rested her chin on his shoulder unconsciously, tilted her head to look at him, and their hands touched.

It was a hot summer day and she was radiating heat all over her body, but she found that his body temperature was higher than hers today.

His scent filled the air, clear and crisp, like a sudden rainstorm under the scorching summer sun, which suddenly sobers people up and yet gently intoxicates them.

"What do you mean by careless? I don't know what you are talking about?"

"You really don't know or you don't know?"

"Whose heartbeat is this?"

He Miao asked him with a blushing face, trying to change the subject very awkwardly.

She spoke softly and slowly, her breath spraying on his neck and shoulders, hot and slightly moist.

After the expected silence, she heard a completely different voice than before, with a mute tone, "Do you want to listen to it?"

He Miao: Xu Mobai definitely did it on purpose.

She felt a little uncomfortable and tried to move, trying to change her posture.

After moving a few times, it stopped.

His voice followed in a low and muffled voice: "Don't move."

He Miao took a step back unconsciously, and the next moment she clearly noticed that he paused, and then an inaudible voice floated into her ears.

"Wait! The car is leaving!"

He Miao's face turned red with shame, and she hesitated for a long time before she uttered a muffled accusation.

Seeing her frightened look, Xu Mobai suddenly felt relieved.

She usually tells dirty jokes and sounds very convincing, but she is still a girl after all.

He knew that his love was heavy and he wanted to lock her up, not wanting to see her smile at other men.

If the emotions that have been suppressed for a long time were to pour out all at once, it would probably scare her.

It started to rain.

One drop, two drops fell on the two people's bodies and quickly grew bigger.

"Okay, let's go."

He distanced himself from her, but naturally took her hand and was about to leave.

"Now?"

"Why? You still want to continue?"

He asked jokingly with a smile on his lips.

Hearing this, He Miao's face flushed and her words came out stutteringly.

Inexplicably feeling aggrieved, she pursed her lips and said in a muffled voice, "Who wants to continue?"

The two stood at the bus stop waiting for the bus.

The rain was getting heavier, and mixed with wind, it kept blowing into the rain shelter at the bus stop.

"Come in a little more!"

Xu Mobai pulled the person towards him and then stood in front of her.

I had clearly come out very early, but was delayed for nearly half an hour just now.

He Miao complained with some resentment, "It's all your fault! It could have been earlier."

He held her hand without letting go, playing with the ball in his big palm.

"Then I'll take you back before we go, okay?"

"That's not necessary."

He Miao rubbed the flesh in his palm, and the two maintained an ambiguous posture.

Soon the car arrived. Xu Mobai picked up the schoolbag and put it on top of He Miao's head, then took her into the car.

The car door opened and closed, and it quickly drove in the next direction.

When they were almost at the stop where Xu Mobai was going to get off, Xu Mobai took the initiative to ask, "It's quite late today, can I take you home?"

"It's really not necessary!"

"I'm very familiar with this road. I can find my way back even with my eyes closed."

After getting off the bus you still have to walk some distance.

Fortunately, the street lights are on and I can see the road clearly.

When returning to the community, He Miao suddenly heard footsteps behind him.

But when she looked back she saw nothing.

She didn't run, but maintained her previous movements, but her steps were obviously much more rapid.

After returning, I happened to meet Zhang Meili and He Dahai coming back, and the three of them ran into each other at the stairs.

Seeing her panting and sweating, Zhang Meili frowned and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing? Are you running back?"

“You guys are…”

"We just got back and haven't even had dinner yet."

Seeing that they seemed to be having a hard time, He Miao swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

She didn't want to worry Zhang Meili and He Dahai, so she didn't tell them what happened at the entrance of the community.

"By the way, why are you so early today?"

He Dahai was opening the door, and Zhang Meili took this opportunity to ask her.

"Ah...the teacher let us go early."

He Miao didn't dare say that he spent a long time on the way.

"How about asking your dad to pick you up tonight?"

"No, you guys are busy enough, so don't worry about me."

He Miao refused while changing his shoes, "I'm familiar with this road, and I can walk and run fast."

"How are you studying lately? I heard that senior year is very hard."

He Dahai looked at He Miao, who was getting thinner and not growing taller, and felt a little distressed. "Whatever you want to eat recently, Dad will make it for you."

"It's really hard. I feel like I don't get enough sleep every day."

As He said this, He Miao couldn't help but yawn, "Everything you cook is delicious, I like it all."

"Stop kissing up to your dad. If you keep praising him, his nose will go up to the sky."

Zhang Meili saw that the father and daughter were in unison and cooperated with each other, "If you feel sleepy, go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow."

"Oh!"

He Miao responded indifferently and went back to his room to get his clothes and prepare to take a shower.

"Health is the most important thing. Only with a healthy body can you keep up with your studies."

He Dahai also comforted her in this way, and then looked at Zhang Meili, "You too, don't push the child too much."

"How can there be progress if you don't push her? I don't think she has the self-awareness to take the college entrance examination yet."

Zhang Meili rolled her eyes at He Dahai and said, "Don't always spoil her. Occasionally, pressure will give her motivation."

Looking at He Miao's room, she thought to herself that she must send He Miao out and away from the mountains.

She just missed out on opportunities.

She was a very good student before, but because her family was poor...

The life of senior high school students is fulfilling and tedious.

The books were piled up very high, but they were all books that I had read. I had to stand up to see the words "three good students" on the blackboard.

The class was in chaos. Amid the noise, she looked out the window and thought about the future. The light fell squarely on her face. That was the future.

He Miao began to do papers and practice exercises day and night... However, his speed in doing the papers could not keep up with the speed in explaining the questions.

Exams, exams. There is nothing else in senior year of high school except lots of exams.

Morning tests, weekly tests, monthly tests, term tests...all kinds of tests, big and small, never stop.

There is no time to feel sad about doing poorly on an exam, because soon the next exam comes along.

In the latest monthly exam, He Miao spent a lot of time and effort.

However, when the results came out, they were very unsatisfactory.

She is last again!
