The New Year's Day holiday is only three days, and the end of the term is approaching. Most of the students who are far away from home will not choose to toss at this time. In the two days before the holiday, Chengxu had been looking sluggish. Xu Tangcheng went to the library with him to review, only to see him holding a pen, staring at the phone on the side in a daze, and occasionally Xu Tangcheng would say something to him, and he would take a long time to push his glasses and reply: "Ah ?"
"Why are you so absent-minded recently," Xu Tangcheng lowered his voice, "Is there something wrong?"
Cheng Xu moved his lips slightly, but was silent. At the end, he shook his head and said, "It's okay."
Saying it was fine, Xu Tangcheng watched him transcribing a formula that applies under a certain condition to a problem with another condition. After deduction and calculation, he even solved the value of a.
Xu Tangcheng studied it for a while, and really felt that the logic of this problem-solving idea was amazing. This is probably the ability of the first grade
"Chengxu." He blinked and called Chengxu.
Cheng Xu looked up and looked at him.
"This a... is a parameter given by the title without a specific value."
"Ah..." Cheng Xu looked at the problem-solving process that he didn't understand, and muttered, "The solution is wrong..."
"Don't look at it," Xu Tangcheng finally couldn't bear it anymore, he stood up and patted Cheng Xu's head, "Let's go, eat."
On the wide steps at the entrance of the library, Xu Tangcheng put one hand on Cheng Xu's shoulder, and the other hand lifted Cheng Xu's chin, which was about to dig into his neck, and asked, "How do you spend New Year's Day?"
Cheng Xu listened, and stared at him for a while with a pair of eyes blankly before replying slowly, "I don't know."
Glancing at him looking down to check his phone again, Xu Tangcheng thought to himself, who is this soulless person waiting for news
At noon in winter, the sun always gives people the best enjoyment. Going from the library to the cafeteria will pass through the main building of the school, and there is a large open space in front of the main building, which is unobstructed except for a high flagpole. Passing through here in summer is a torment, and in winter, it becomes a pleasure. Xu Tangcheng was too lazy to be exposed to the sun, and his hands on Cheng Xu became heavier and heavier.
"You've overwhelmed me so much." Cheng Xu shrugged and complained.
"Classmate, although you started school early, you are already twenty-one."
Cheng Xu lost the previous Wen Tun this time, and immediately replied: "Twenty-three, jump and jump."
Xu Tangcheng was inadvertently mocked by his younger brother for his height not long ago. Now facing Cheng Xu, who is shorter than him, he just feels comfortable how to get along. He pinched Chengxu's shoulder, and quickly pulled his hand up twice: "Yes, I won't press you anymore. If you have nothing to do on New Year's Day, come home with me, or you will be bored for three days."
Cheng Xu went to school early, so she was younger than her peers. I don't know if it is for this reason, he seems a little out of place, but it's not that he is withdrawn, just talking and doing things, always gives people the feeling that he is still a child.
"I'm not going, I..."
Cheng Xu just opened her mouth to refuse, when the phone that he had been holding suddenly rang. He stopped talking, paused, and then suddenly raised the phone.
Only a few seconds before and after, Xu Tangcheng watched his face show layers of brilliance, and then gradually turned to ashes.
During dinner, Cheng Xupa pulled the broccoli on the plate and asked Xu Tangcheng in a muffled voice if he could go home with him for New Year's Day.
"Okay, let's go in the afternoon on the 29th." Xu Tangcheng gave him the big drumstick he had just bought from his plate. "You're very motion sick, right? Then let's go back by train."
Xu Tangcheng never mentioned the phone call just now, and did not ask why Cheng Xu suddenly changed his decision. He asked Cheng Xu to ask for his ID card, and went to the North Station in the afternoon to buy two tickets.
He hasn't taken the train home for a long time since he bought the car. Because it was a holiday, there were a lot of people in the car, and the flocculent body behind Xu Tangcheng was squeezed to the side, and his glasses were rubbed off the bridge of his nose by a big bag, almost falling to the ground. When Xu Tangcheng looked back, he immediately stretched out his hand to carry him in front of him, protected him with one hand, and pushed him inside. He arranged Cheng Xu to the window seat, opened the window, and told him to tell himself if he felt uncomfortable.
After the train started, Xu Tangcheng took Chengxu's cup and got up to get him hot water. But before he could take two steps, he was stopped by a female voice. He turned around and saw a girl wearing a plaid coat and a thick scarf, smiling very cheerfully.
Very smoothly, he matched her with a name in his mind.
"It's really you! I looked like you just now, but I didn't dare to recognize it." The girl beckoned to him, "Long time no see."
Xu Tangcheng nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Wanzhi."
Although many years have passed, Wanzhi's appearance has not changed much compared to when he was in junior high school, but his facial features have grown a little more, and his appearance has become more graceful.
Those who sat with Wan Zhi that day were also Xu Tangcheng's junior high school classmates. Xu Tangcheng learned that they had just got together in Beijing and went home together. Then he remembered that Han Yin had asked himself about today's day. Is there time. This accidental meeting continued until he got off the train. While Xu Tangcheng was pulling Cheng Xu, who was a little sluggish because of the train, he also had to chat with a few classmates.
After leaving the platform, Wan Zhi tiptoed to look at the cars parked in front of him, turned around and asked Xu Tangcheng with a smile, "How are you going back? My dad has come to pick me up, let's take you back together, it's quite cold today."
Xu Tangcheng smiled and politely refused: "Thank you, but my friend can't make a car, and he's very motion sick."
Wanzhi saw that the boy standing beside him was really not very good-looking, so he didn't force it any more, and greeted Chengxu with concern.
"Wanzhi, take me back, I'll drop by with you."
"What are you doing..."
A burst of braking sound interrupted the jokes of a group of people. Everyone was silent in unison, no one understood what was going on, but they all looked at this handsome guy who suddenly appeared but didn't say a word.
Yi Zhe was still wearing his school uniform, he put on a long leg that made Cheng Xu envy, and looked at Xu Tangcheng.
"Have a holiday?" Xu Tangcheng asked him with a smile, without questioning YiZhe's abrupt appearance.
"Yeah," YiZhe was suddenly stared at by so many people, and he didn't know how to react. He turned his eyes around and swept everyone's faces, and finally leaned in the direction of Xu Tangcheng, and with his hands Touching the backpack belonging to Chengxu in Xu Tangcheng's hand, "I'll take it for you."
At this time, a girl reacted and asked Xu Tangcheng with some emotion: "I'm here to pick you up? My brother is too handsome."
A group of "elderly people" who had already said goodbye to university, looked at the familiar school uniforms in front of them, and couldn't help but a little bit. When riding a mountain bike, when you hold the handlebars, you will inevitably arch your back. The boy's back is against the school uniform, and there is a slight bulge in the middle, which is green and unique. A tall, handsome boy, as if every bone and every breath carries the word "youth".
Xu Tangcheng noticed this moment of silence, he watched Yi Zhe hang his schoolbag on the handlebars like no one else, then continued to look straight at himself, finally laughed twice, turned to say goodbye to everyone.
YiZhe rode the bicycle at the same speed as walking. Because the speed was too slow, he could only twist and ride for a while, and then paddled with his feet to avoid the approaching people. Seeing that he was still wearing only one school uniform and one sweater in such weather, Xu Tangcheng said, "It will take a while to walk back. If you are cold or not, just ride on it first."
"not cold."
Cheng Xu, who was walking on the other side of Xu Tangcheng, has been secretly looking at Yi Zhe, from envying his height to his looks. He couldn't help but ask Xu Tangcheng, "Is this your brother?"
Xu Tangcheng nodded. Yi Zhe secretly squeezed the brakes a few times, always keeping his head down, pressing the wheel to press the cracks between the bricks on the ground.
"Really tall..."
The voice that Cheng Xu said was very low, and Yi Zhe didn't hear it, but he heard Xu Tangcheng laugh out loud, and when he raised his head, he saw that he put an arm on Cheng Xu's shoulder and rubbed his head.
He frowned, then lowered his head and pinched the brakes.
"Why did your sports car stand here?" Xu Tangcheng asked after laughing.
"Pick you up." Yi Che said, "I asked Tang Xi when you will be back."
Pick up a bike? Really special.
"What's wrong with me?"
I specifically asked myself the time of my return, and I went to the station to wait. It shouldn't be because I was too happy because of the holiday.
However, YiZhe, who was suddenly asked such a question, didn't answer. Seeing Chengxu, he tilted his head and looked at him curiously, YiZhe took out the hand in his pocket and shook his head: "It's fine. "
"Really?" Xu Tangcheng didn't quite believe it, and confirmed it again in a questioning tone.
"Um."
Doubtful, Xu Tangcheng nodded, suddenly thought of something, and said to Yi Zhe, "Oh, by the way, do you have a cell phone? Every time I see you, I forget about it. If you have a cell phone, give me a number. It’s easy to get in touch with anything.”
YiZhe took two steps forward, turned his head to him, and said hesitantly, "I don't have a cell phone right now."
The mobile phone is used to communicate with people, and he has almost never had such a need before. He looked at Xu Tangcheng: "Give me your number."
That night, Xu Tangcheng received two text messages from unfamiliar numbers, one was from Wanzhi, the content was just two lines, telling him that she was Wanzhi, asked Han Yin for her mobile phone number, and at the end Added a smiley face.
The other is from Yizhe, and the content is more concise - "I am Yizhe."
Before the time entered 2008, Yizhe bought his first mobile phone and sent his first text message.
At night, he rode his bicycle very fast, passing through the streets with colorful lights, and passing the red lanterns with colorful silk above his head. The streets were full of people who came to take a walk and admire the lanterns. When YiZhe passed them, he could hear their unbridled laughter and high-volume conversations. But it was amazing. For the first time, he felt that people's voices were not so loud, even without headphones. The red lantern with the big "New Year's Day" written on it was not so ugly. This festival, which originally meant nothing to him, suddenly became something he could endure and even like.
Everything that brought him to him should be classified as "good". This is YiZhe's most superficial and true understanding of the world.
The red bicycle crossed the city center and moved forward in the direction of the lights gradually dissipating. Gradually, the prosperity faded away, and the lights were no longer bright.
Approaching the arched doorway that covered a big downhill, a somewhat unfamiliar message sound cut through the gradually blanketed silence.
18:52, From: xtc.
"okay, got it."
It's downhill.
YiZhe held the phone and let go of the handlebars. When he swooped down at a frantic speed that seemed to be out of control, the brightness of the phone screen cut through the pitch black, and the trajectory was turbulent and fiery.
YiZhe has done this action countless times, but he has never been as shocked as this time.
It was a screeching brake sound that ended the excitement. YiZhe put the phone back in his pocket, propped his legs on the ground, leaned back against the bushes, and turned his head to look at the slope.
The SMS alert sounded a second time. YiZhe was stunned for a while, wondering if it was his hallucinations after the sprint. Then, he quickly put both hands into the pockets of his clothes.
There was a rustling sound, and the right hand touched Liang Liang's mobile phone, but the left hand touched a neatly folded piece of paper - it was the transcript of this joint entrance examination.
The phone screen lights up again.
"Have you bought a cell phone?"
