Chapter 217: My Thoughts
"Mingfei!"

Liu Miaomiao's voice was like a happy little sparrow jumping, and there were noisy voices beside her. When Lu Mingfei heard it, he knew that Liu Miaomiao should be in the cafeteria at this moment.

"It's me, Miaomiao." Lu Mingfei touched his nose and was about to say long time no see, but then he felt that since they were on the phone, it would be a bit inappropriate to say long time no see.

During the few seconds of hesitation, a sound as thin as a mosquito's buzz came from the other end of the microphone.

"……I miss you."

This voice was mixed with three parts of shyness, three parts of longing, and four parts of sincerity. Lu Mingfei was overjoyed when he heard it. It was so fresh, and his heart seemed to be scratched by a million little claws. Suddenly, he felt that having a girlfriend was such a happy thing.

Even if there are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of kilometers between you, you know that there is a beautiful and lovely girlfriend on the other side of the world who is missing you and expressing her longing to you in a shy voice. Her surroundings may be noisy and your surroundings may be gloomy and lonely, but the two of you have your own world, which belongs only to you and allows you to be close to each other freely and express your loneliness and longing for each other.

He knew clearly that he was the only one in the room... Of course, it wouldn't count if the little devil suddenly jumped out to disturb the spring breeze... Lu Mingfei still looked around subconsciously, and then spoke to Liu Miaomiao on the other end of the phone in a very low voice.

"I miss you too." Lu Mingfei replied with a smile.

After all, he was already in his twenties mentally, so he was not as shy as Liu Miaomiao, who was fifteen or sixteen years old, when he called his girlfriend to express his longing for her. But when he said this, Lu Mingfei still felt a little nervous. After all, this was his first real love.

Liu Miaomiao snorted softly, and Lu Mingfei could even imagine her angry expression with her mouth puffed out: "I don't believe it. If you missed me, why did you take so long to call me?"

Although the two did not agree on how often to call each other, Lu Mingfei initially planned to report his itinerary to Liu Miaomiao every day.

However, the things he encountered during this trip to Portugal were actually more than he had imagined. He inexplicably met mixed-race people on the train, and also met people from Kassel Academy. In addition, there is a relatively large time difference between Portugal and China. When Lu Mingfei had time, Liu Miaomiao fell asleep again.

Therefore, many things that I wanted to say on the phone could only be communicated with Liu Miaomiao across the time difference through QQ and text messages.

However, Lu Mingfei did not intend to make excuses. After all, it was indeed his own problem that he called Liu Miaomiao two days after arriving in Portugal.

"I have deeply realized my mistake! I promise you that I will call you every day from now on, once in the morning, once in the afternoon, once in the evening, and once before going to bed!"

Liu Miaomiao on the other end of the phone laughed at him: "Why make so many calls? One call a day is enough! And the international roaming charges are so expensive..."

Liu Miaomiao paused, as if struggling with something, and then Lu Mingfei heard Liu Miaomiao say softly: "However, if I can hear you say good night to me every night before going to bed..."

"Okay." Before Liu Miaomiao finished speaking, Lu Mingfei agreed with a smile, "Then let's put it this way. I'll call you twice a day, one at noon and one before bed."

Although the sound was not loud, Lu Mingfei could still hear Liu Miaomiao's happy laughter on the other end of the phone. He could even imagine Liu Miaomiao holding the phone and smiling slightly.

"By the way, Ming Fei."

Liu Miaomiao paused, as if hesitating about something. Lu Mingfei waited patiently for more than ten seconds before he heard Liu Miaomiao say, "Did you find the mast after you arrived in Portugal?"

"Yes, I have found her. I am living in her house now." Lu Mingfei said.

"Living in her house?"

Hearing Liu Miaomiao's voice suddenly become nervous on the other end of the phone, Lu Mingfei immediately explained: "It's not what you think... Her grandmother's family has a manor with many guest rooms. I'm staying in a guest room now."

Liu Miaomiao uttered a soft "tsk~" and said, "I didn't say what I was thinking...By the way, Mingfei, have you had lunch?"

After saying that, Liu Miaomiao immediately continued, "Ah, I'm so stupid! I forgot that it should be night time over there..."

Lu Mingfei thought to himself, you are in the top 50 in the school exam, and you are the little piano princess of Shilan Middle School. You are definitely a gifted girl with extraordinary talent. If you are stupid, there will be few smart people in the whole school.

But before Lu Mingfei could answer, he heard Liu Miaomiao, who had just calculated the time difference, exclaimed, "Isn't it already 5 a.m. where you are? Are you still awake?" "Of course I am asleep, and I even dreamed about you, and then I called you right away."

The sweet words of the person I like were gently recalled in the microphone. The voice of Liu Miaomiao on the other end of the phone suddenly paused, and then asked in a gentle and delicate voice: "Is this true? You are not trying to fool me, are you?"

"Of course it's true." Lu Mingfei said without blushing or beating his heart.

For some reason, he suddenly felt like he had the potential to be a scumbag.

"Humph, as long as it's true." Liu Miaomiao replied somewhat arrogantly, and then said in a lighter tone: "Actually, I dreamed about you last night, too."

"Really? Then what did you dream about me?"

"Why are you asking so many questions? Isn't it enough for you to know that I dreamed about you?"

Thinking of the scene in the dream, Liu Miaomiao's face couldn't help but blush. How could she tell him what she dreamed about? She hurriedly avoided the topic: "Okay, let's stop talking. I'm going to eat!"

Hearing Liu Miaomiao say that she was going to eat, Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment: "So you haven't eaten yet?"

"No." Liu Miaomiao said, "I just arrived at the cafeteria and you called me."

"Then do you want to go get some food first? I'll call you later."

"No need." Liu Miaomiao said, "Wenwen has already prepared the meal for me. I have been eating with Wenwen these days."

There are probably several girls named Wenwen in Shilan Middle School, but Lu Mingfei knows that the Wenwen in Liu Miaomiao's mouth can only refer to Chen Wenwen. Unexpectedly, during the time when he was away, the relationship between Liu Miaomiao and Chen Wenwen seemed to have taken a step further.

During the following period of time, Liu Miaomiao shared with Lu Mingfei some recent events at Shilan Middle School. Liu Miaomiao spoke one sentence at a time, and Lu Mingfei listened to every word.

Although it is just a simple and trivial daily life, it is wrapped with lingering thoughts.

Of course, every time Liu Miaomiao was talking too much, Lu Mingfei would remind her to eat in time.

I don’t know how long we chatted until the lunch break was almost over. Liu Miaomiao said reluctantly: "Ming Fei, I have to go to class here, I have to hang up..."

"Ah."

"Ming Fei, wait a moment...!"

Lu Mingfei heard Liu Miaomiao suddenly call him. Before he realized what the little girl was going to do, he heard hurried footsteps coming from the other end of the phone, as if Liu Miaomiao was running somewhere in a hurry. Then he heard a soft voice from the microphone:
"mua~"

Lu Mingfei's heart skipped a beat, and suddenly it felt like there were hundreds of strong and powerful horses running wildly in his chest. He thought to himself, damn, it's different when you have a girlfriend!
Suddenly I remembered the words in Su Dongpo's "Red Cliff":
"My heart is filled with longing, I long for the beauty in the sky."

Of course, Su Shi’s original sentence was “Miao Miao”, but Lu Mingfei changed it to “Miao Miao” in his heart.

"mua~" Lu Mingfei also replied into the microphone.
