"I discovered something recently. You may not believe it if you say it, but I really have no choice now. I really don't know what to do." Xu Yaping thought about it, but she still called her best friend. .
The best friend was her first job colleague she found after coming to City A. She was of the same age, and the relationship has been maintained until now.
She was about to fall asleep, but she was so frightened that she fell asleep: "What's the matter, what happened to you?"
"I found out that my son is not my son," Xu Yaping said horribly. "No wonder I think his eyes are so unfamiliar, he always looks at me coldly... Now I finally understand that he is not my son at all!"
Girlfriend: "...??!"
When her best friend's back got cold, she rubbed her arms and said, "Aren't you joking, tell me ghost stories in the middle of the night."
Xu Yaping's voice began to tremble, and the wind outside the window was even louder: "I'm not joking with you."
And on the other side.
There is a milk tea shop on the commercial street near Xu Sheng's house, and Shao Zhan is walking to the community with a cup of mango drink.
Xu Sheng sent a message.
-I have arrived.
When the two separated, they didn't say much. The things that no one had touched for a long time in their hearts, and they said it unexpectedly today, Xu Sheng also needs to be quiet.
He had to give himself an answer.
Shao Zhan didn't continue the previous topic and avoided saying: I'm almost there too, I just bought a drink for your mother.
Xu Chengcheng opened the door, put the key in the storage basket at the entrance, typed with one hand, and asked every day: My mother has not noticed anything recently.
Shao Zhan's daily self-confidence: No.
Carrying something inconvenient to type, Shao Zhan pressed the talk button and approached to report Xu Yaping's recent whereabouts: "I rarely talk to her these past two days. Every time she wants to find me, I avoid it."
Shao Zhan had already gone upstairs, and in front of him was the door of Xu Sheng's house.
In the door separated by only one door, Xu Yaping said with a tingling scalp: "He rarely talks to me in the past two days. He has never been like this before. Every time I want to find him, he tells me that he wants to write Homework, he wants to learn!"
Outside the door, Shao Zhan took out the key and said, "So she shouldn't have a chance to find out."
The two spoke almost simultaneously.
Xu Yaping: "How could he want to study hard, is this what that kid Xu Sheng would say?! I should have reacted at the time, why did I just think of it."
After Shao Zhan finished speaking, he inserted the key into the door lock.
Xu Yaping froze when she heard the movement: "What should I do... He, he, he, he came back."
After listening to all the clues, the best friend swallowed and said, "Could it be that it's the dirty upper body?" She thought about it and there was only one possibility.
The moment Shao Zhan entered the door, Xu Yaping had hung up the phone, and the woman was sitting on the sofa, her pupils trembling slightly, as if she was holding back something.
Shao Zhan thought it was strange, but he didn't go into it. He passed the drink in his hand and said, "Here you are."
Xu Yaping was sitting on the sofa in the living room. It was dark and windy outside the window, and the wind rushing in from all sides hit the glass window, making a horrifying "whoosh" sound. The cold wind seemed to come in from every corner of the surroundings, blowing her hands and feet cold.
Xu Yaping seems to be the heroine of a horror story.
She felt in danger all around her!
The world suddenly became mysterious, and people couldn't see what was true and what was false.
The coldness on the young man's face turned gloomy in her eyes at the moment!
Not to mention the plastic bag hooked between the slender fingers of the teenager and handed the mango milkshake to her.
Xu Yaping: "..."
She dare not take it.
This mango milkshake looks no longer like an ordinary mango milkshake.
Shao Zhan didn't understand what happened, but he also keenly noticed that Xu Yaping seemed to be a little afraid of him.
But this realization was too inexplicable, he was about to say something, Xu Yaping reached out and took the plastic bag very quickly, forced a smile and said: "Thank you, it's very late now, you should wash your toothbrush face earlier, no, brush your teeth and wash your face, rest early."
"… "
also.
Shao Zhan was afraid that she wanted to stop him and talk about something, so he might as well go back to his room to rest earlier and reduce contact.
Shao Zhan lowered his hand: "I'm back in the room."
Shao Zhan entered the bedroom, not knowing how complicated, flustered and frightened Xu Yaping's eyes looked when he entered the bedroom.
Xu Yaping couldn't hold back, and after Shao Zhan entered the bedroom, she summoned up the courage to push the bedroom door open a crack, only to see Xu Sheng with her back to her, opening a test paper, sitting upright, and the boy's focused eyes when facing the paper was so serious. and strange. Although "Xu Sheng" didn't look back the whole time, she still felt a feeling of being looked up and down. She always felt that another person in "Xu Sheng" was looking at her.
The more Xu Yaping looked, the more panicked her heart became.
After taking a shower, Shao Zhan planned to write two papers before going to bed. When he was writing the last question of the second set of papers, he vaguely heard the sound of cautious footsteps in the living room. The footsteps came back and forth, and finally stopped at the door of his bedroom.
Does Xu Sheng's mother clean at this point
Shao Zhan felt noisy.
Generally speaking, he doesn't like to be disturbed when he is doing problems, except for Xu Sheng.
Shao Zhan paused for a moment. The question was the most critical step, and he was about to continue the calculation, but the bedroom door was pushed open with a "bang"!
He frowned, looked up, and saw Xu Yaping holding a broom high in her hand, standing at the door of the bedroom with a defensive face. The woman's hair was messy. Because of her fear and her chest heaving violently, she lingered at the door for a long time. Finally, she mustered up the courage to push the door open and shouted, "I don't care what you are, I will fight with you!"
"… "
Rao is that Shao Zhan's calm and self-controlled character can't hold back the impact of the scene in front of him. This scene is beyond his imagination.
Shao Zhan glanced at the time. It was half past twelve in the evening. He was writing the test paper in his boyfriend's body. His boyfriend's mother was standing at the door, holding a broom to die with him.
Shao Zhan twirled the pen between his fingers and wanted to call him Auntie, but when the words came to his mouth, he bluntly turned to "Mom": "Mom, what are you doing?"
Anyone who finds out that his son is not his own son in the middle of the night has no choice but to be afraid, but his worry about Xu Sheng overcomes his fear, Xu Yaping said: "Don't call me mother - you are not my son! Your words and Xiaosheng is different, Xiaosheng knows that I am allergic to mangoes, so he will never buy me a mango milkshake, who are you?!”
Shao Zhan: "..."
Shao Zhan was stunned for a moment.
I never imagined that I would roll over in this way.
He and Xu Sheng have exchanged many times, and they have seen all kinds of scenes. Originally, he thought about the holiday for more than ten days. As long as he pays more attention, there should be no problem. However, he missed a little: Xu Yaping is the person Xu Sheng has been with for more than ten years after all. .
It's hard for him to hide from the people closest to him.
Not to mention that Xu Yaping has been at home for the past few days, the risk factor has increased, and exposure may only be a matter of words.
Xu Yaping didn't really believe in these ghosts and ghosts at first, but now the reality is in front of her, so she has to believe it. After she finished shouting, she saw the long legs of the young man in front of the desk stretched out, looking down at her with her eyes lowered and her eyes showing no warmth, Xu Yaping immediately persuaded, and she involuntarily lowered her tone and asked, "You, are you still alive in this world? Do you have any unfulfilled wishes?"
"… "
Shao Zhan didn't know what to say and tried to interrupt her: "Actually..."
Xu Yaping: "Speak out, don't hurt my child, I can do my best to satisfy you."
Shao Zhan still looked icy and calm, but in fact, he was already overwhelmed in his heart.
Being stared at by Xu Yaping, he couldn't use his mobile phone to send a message to Xu Sheng, and even if he sent a message now, it would be useless to call him over. What should Xu Sheng say when he came? You can't point to "Shao Zhan" and say that auntie is your son.
When he was in Meng Guowei's office when he was facing the monthly test results, he was not as broken down as he is now.
Just a few minutes, as long as a century.
Xu Yaping clenched the broom in her hand: "What did you do to my child, don't force me."
Many different rhetoric flashed in Shao Zhan's mind, but none of them could solve the current situation.
His current collapse is no less than Xu Yaping.
"I know you may not believe what you say now," Shao Zhan finally got up and walked towards her step by step under Xu Yaping's eyes, "Since you found out, I'll tell you the truth."
He took a step forward, and Xu Yaping took a step back.
Shao Zhan found that he may have been with Xu Sheng for a long time, and his ability to think divergence has improved a lot. He finally stood in front of Xu Yaping. When Xu Yaping had no way to retreat, he said with difficulty, word by word: "No Wrong, I'm actually Xu Sheng's second personality."
There is no better way to explain this situation than schizophrenia. After finishing speaking, Shao Zhan can only bite the bullet and continue: "From a psychiatric point of view, this is also called schizotypal personality disorder."
As soon as the word "second personality" came out, Xu Yaping was completely dumbfounded.
Xu Yaping: "... what?"
---
After Xu Sheng entered the room, he sat for a long time at the entrance with half a candy in his hand, leaning against the door panel. After eating the candy in his mouth, there was still a little sweetness on the tip of his tongue.
At the end of the split, the seventh class was all there.
Hou Jun heard that "Xu Sheng" also took the subway back. He happened to be on the way and dragged Shao Zhan to the station together, so they didn't have time to be alone. Shao Zhan only said to him before leaving, "reach out your hand."
Then he stuffed the remaining half of the candy bar in his hand.
When the fireworks ended, he watched Shao Zhan call Xu Yaping. A few words circled over and over in his mind until now, and he finally stopped at one sentence: Do you like drawing very much
---
The wind outside the window gradually subsided, and the air outside became extremely dull and thin, which was a precursor to the changing weather. A gray cloth hangs in the night sky, pressing down with gray pressure.
Although the second personality is casual nonsense.
But two minutes later, Shao Zhan and Xu Yaping sat face to face, and heard Xu Yaping ask at a loss: "Why... when did it start? How could this happen?"
Shao Zhan thought of Xu Sheng's expression under the fireworks, and suddenly found that he was the "second personality" of "Xu Sheng", and he really wanted to say something to Xu Yaping.
After a while, Shao Zhan said, "More than a year ago."
"From the moment he heard you calling and knew that you were in a difficult situation, he couldn't bear to start arguing with you again."
Xu Yaping was stunned.
Never expected to hear this answer.
"He loves to draw."
"When you were looking for a job, he secretly filled out the registration form for you and asked you to try it out."
This incident used by Shao Zhan was something Xu Yaping had mentioned at the dinner table before. As a "second personality" perspective, he spoke to the point and saw it more clearly than Xu Yaping, a client: "Which way you go, you will encounter many obstacles. Expected difficulties, but he didn't become your first obstacle."
There are not many words about the "second personality", but the entry point is precise.
It was so accurate that Xu Yaping was completely taken away by him, and she asked herself in her heart: But what about me? what did I do
Out of her status as an elder, Xu Yaping has never taken the fact that "Xu Sheng likes to paint" seriously. She can impose her "expectations" on him and take it for granted.
She felt that painting was unstable and difficult to walk, so she became the first difficulty on that road.
The young man sat opposite her with a cold tone. He was too different from Xu Sheng, but she subconsciously realized that there was indeed an indescribable link between the person in front of her and Xu Sheng. In a trance, she seemed to turn back to a year ago.
That day, it was also the eve of the rainstorm, and the sky outside the window also changed gloomily.
