Zhen Yuanbai was very happy.
It was Shi Bufan who couldn't help but talk to him first, he must like him very much, so he was the first to give in.
Shi Bufan finally agreed to participate in the sports meeting, but the prerequisite was that Zhen Yuanbai would come over to train with him every day after school. Shi Bufan had already bowed his head to admit his mistake, and Zhen Yuanbai was of course a grown-up who had a lot to stop pursuing, so they reconciled as before, Song Mo seemed to have eaten a lemon tree, and he was full of envy and hatred towards Shi Bufan .
With Zhen Yuanbai's help, it would be very difficult for him to hold on to his second position.
Zhen Yuanbai obediently accompanied him to practice long-distance running, handed him a towel and warm water when he came back out of breath, and Shi Bufan frowned after taking a sip: "Why is it still a little hot?"
"Warm." Zhen Yuanbai explained: "It's not good to drink too much cold water."
Shi Bufan glanced at his water glass, then at the mineral water bottle in his hand, and felt that this was a kind of warm love, and suddenly he was in a good mood: "When the time comes, you cheer me up, and I will take the first place for you." .”
Zhen Yuanbai nodded vigorously.
He followed Shi Bufan's appearance in a foolish way, but Qiu Jing took a sympathetic look in exchange for him. Zhen Yuanbai also noticed that Mingmai and Qiu Jing looked at him very strangely recently, so he looked back for no reason. , The two immediately looked away, and waited until Shi Bufan walked towards the runway again, before they leaned over and said, "Are you reconciled with Brother Shi?"
Zhen Yuanbai hummed a little embarrassedly.
Ming Mai said, "You looked for Brother Shi first?"
Zhen Yuanbai wanted to refute that, but after a second thought, it is better to save some face for Shi Bufan in front of his brothers, so he nodded slightly, and said, "Aren't you going up?"
"Let's take a break."
After Qiu Jing finished speaking, she pushed Ming Mai and said, "Go over there and wash your face."
The two of them left together, Zhen Yuanbai looked down at Shi Bufan's used towel, and raised his eyes to look at the young man running on the playground, thinking that he couldn't finish running for a while, so he followed him to wash the towel .
By the pool, Qiu Jing splashed water on his face, and didn't care about the wet T-shirt: "The more I think about it, the more pitiful our monitor is."
Ming Mai said: "Brother Shi is really inhuman, only the two of us know about this, otherwise someone else might call him a dog."
"It's hard to say, look at that day when the squad leader came to see us, brother Shi really cared about it, this double, it became real just because of the substitute."
"It's not that his crush is dead, how can it be true if it becomes true? If one day that crush turns around, hey, just wait and see, Shi Ge Custodian will take the initiative to break up."
"How about I say, brother Shi hated him so much before, but suddenly fell in love with him... Tsk, I'm really uneasy and kind."
They packed up and turned around, only to see Zhen Yuanbai standing there blankly, looking at them foolishly.
He has always had this question in his heart, why he hates him so much, and suddenly fell in love with him when he said he likes it... So, is it because of this
Qiu Jing looked at no one from left to right, and hurried forward and said, "Squad leader, don't listen to us talking nonsense, we..."
Zhen Yuanbai turned and left without saying a word.
Qiu Jing and Ming Mai looked at each other, and the latter said in a nasty voice: "It's a good thing to know, anyway, Brother Shi is uneasy and kind, and he will be broken and clean up early..."
In the end, he inevitably felt guilty.
Zhen Yuanbai returned to the playground with the towel in his arms, put the towel on the ground, turned and left holding his water glass. He felt as if he was dreaming, with a sense of unreality in a trance.
What is a stand-in? Although he doesn't read novels very much, he has read some of the hot chicken sadism texts that are frequently posted on social platforms. He hangs his head that has suddenly become heavy, thinking about this strange title, Before he got home, he received a call from Shi Bufan.
Zhen Yuanbai hesitated for a moment, and after connecting, he raised it to his ear, and Shi Bufan said, "Why are you missing?"
We are not on our way.
Zhen Yuanbai opened his mouth, and suddenly found that his eyes were blurred. He wiped his eyes, hung up the phone in a daze, sucked his nose hard, wiped his face with his sleeve repeatedly, and managed to see the road ahead.
I already knew that Shi Bufan was uneasy and kind, and he had done so many unforgivable things to him, how could he let himself go so easily, so he was waiting here. Obviously from the beginning, he felt that he must be waiting for him to fall in love with him before abandoning him, but why did he still fall in love with him
When he got home, the house was empty, he was the only one, and Zhen Youliang lived in the room, because he was busy with schoolwork, he only came back once every two weeks, and his parents hadn't come back from get off work, so Zhen Yuanbai locked himself in the room and lay on the bed sad for a long time.
Shi Bufan called several times, but he ignored them all.
He decided not to talk to Shi Bufan again, never to talk to Shi Bufan in this life, he is really a super invincible villain.
He cried for a long time, the pillow became wet, and then he reached out to block Shi Bufan's mobile number, and then deleted the contact information in WeChat.
Shi Bufan didn't like him from the beginning, and he didn't need to continue to like Shi Bufan.
Qin Ying came back soon, and came to ask him to eat after packing up. Zhen Yuanbai adjusted his voice and said to her, "I won't eat."
The nasal voice was so clear that Qin Ying knew what was going on as soon as she heard it. She knocked on the door and said worriedly: "What's going on? Someone bullied you? Did Shi Bufan bully you? Yuan Yuan?"
Zhen Yuanbai wiped away his tears, choked up and said: "No, it's not him, I just, there is a problem that I can't solve no matter what, so leave me alone."
"You said you..." Qin Ying said helplessly: "Why are you crying about this matter? If you can't solve it, take a rest and solve it tomorrow. Why don't you take it out and ask your father, ah? You have to eat, and I'll bring it to you."
The phone call fell into a busy tone, and the social mode was deleted. Shi Bufan looked at his mobile phone, full of panic.
Fuck.
He thought, what did I do wrong
The next day was the weekend, Zhen Pingjin got up early in the morning: "Smart, your mother and I are going to take grandma for a physical examination today. When did you wake up and when did you go out to buy food by yourself, huh?"
Zhen Yuanbai didn't go to bed until late yesterday, and he gave a humming bewilderment, and Qin Ying yelled twice before he came back to his senses and said loudly, "Got it."
"We may not come back until evening, are you really not going with us?"
After not getting a reply for a long time, Qin Ying gave him the money and put it at the porch, and said while changing his shoes, "I don't know who this child looks like, and he can cry when he solves a problem. It seems that he won't let it go if he doesn't solve the problem today." gone."
"Like you, a muscle."
The parents closed the door and left, while Zhen Yuanbai fell asleep again. He stared in a daze as if he hadn't slept for a long time, when the phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar number. He picked it up and put it to his ear: "Hello?"
"Yuan Yuan." Shi Bufan said, "I'll go to your house to find you, okay?"
Zhen Yuanbai was stunned for two seconds, then hung up without saying a word, and blocked the number by the way.
Shi Bufan: "..."
Usually it looks soft, but it is really ruthless at critical moments, and it is completely merciless to delete contact information.
Shi Bufan felt as if his heart was frying in oil, and he couldn't understand why he had offended him.
Today is cloudy, the sky is dark, Zhen Yuanbai's house is very quiet, he seems to be asleep, but in fact he is not, his mind is heavy, his body is heavy, he is a bit hungry, but he doesn't want to move at all.
He was very glad that today was Sunday, and he could adjust himself to see Shi Bufan after another day, otherwise he was afraid that he would make Shi Bufan laugh at him again.
He rubbed his face, spent the whole day in bed in a daze, and finally went out to look for food under an umbrella at five o'clock in the afternoon. The rain made the weather turn cold again, Zhen Yuanbai walked through the rain curtain to the convenience store with his head down, took three buckets of instant noodles from the cabinet, and suddenly heard a voice from the counter: " this."
"Would you like candy?"
After a short silence, the voice said, "Yes."
Zhen Yuanbai poked his head out from behind, and saw that familiar figure walking out holding an umbrella, and then walked under a tree in the distance.
Zhen Yuanbai went out with the instant noodles in his arms. The big brother at the cash register turned his head back and clicked his tongue: "This kid won't be in love again."
Zhen Yuanbai would occasionally hear others talking to himself, but now he suddenly became curious: "He, has he been broken in love before?"
The eldest brother also knew him, and when he saw him questioning, he immediately smiled and said: "No, this kid was last year, it has to be postponed to the year before last, he came here often, just under that tree, did you see it, he often smoked there, I smoked all night, and then I didn’t see him come over for a while, and he told me ostentatiously that he had been chased, and now he came to COS again to visit his wife, it seems that his girlfriend is blowing up again.”
Zhen Yuanbai was a little confused: "I used to come here often... to chase after girlfriends?"
"Then I don't know. Anyway, I often look at the neighborhood, and it's not necessarily chasing people. It's obviously a secret love when I come here secretly... Hey, I remember you two are from the same school. Don't you know who he is chasing? "
"I don't know." Zhen Yuanbai said sullenly, and the elder brother didn't ask any more questions. He found a bag and put it in it for him, and said, "Parents are not at home, right? You children, you eat because your parents are not at home." Junk food, when the time comes, the whole room will definitely be discovered."
Zhen Yuanbai took the bag and went out holding an umbrella, when a thunderbolt suddenly flashed across the sky.
He held the bag and stared at the guy under the tree. The black umbrella he was holding blocked his upper body, but his posture leaning against the tree was very casual.
Zhen Yuanbai wanted to rush back to the house, but suddenly he couldn't bear it anymore. He turned around and walked slowly, stepping on the umbrella and said, "Stay under the tree on a rainy day, why aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
The black umbrella was lifted suddenly, Shi Bufan had candy in his mouth, saw him, stepped over in two steps, grabbed his wrist, frowned and said, "Why are you ignoring me all of a sudden?"
Zhen Yuanbai pursed his lips, tears began to flow out again, Shi Bufan was stunned for two seconds, Zhen Yuanbai wiped his face with his sleeve, choked up and said, "Whose substitute do you think I am?"
"Who told you that? What kind of bullshit is this?!"
"You brother told me that!" Zhen Yuanbai cried and said, "They said that you have a crush on someone who is very similar to me, and you couldn't catch up with him, so you took me as a substitute..."
"For shit." Shi Bufan wanted to kick his so-called good brother's head away: "I have been secretly in love with you all this time, did that kid Ye Lian tell you?! He is a bastard Egg! You can’t see me, can you?!”
Tears were still hanging on Zhen Yuanbai's face, Shi Bufan wiped his face with his hand, and said, "Why is your face so hot? Do you have a fever?"
Hearing what he said, Zhen Yuanbai realized that he was indeed a little top-heavy. Shi Bufan grabbed his hand and said, "Go back to your house first."
"I do not want you… "
"I said that I like you, there is no bullshit substitute, you can't understand people's language, right?" Shi Bufan said with a green face: "If you say no again, I will carry you in."
"If you like me, you shouldn't threaten..."
"What's the matter with threatening you?" Shi Bufan dragged him forward, and said in a rough voice, "Is it reasonable for you to condemn me to death if you listen to a bastard?"
"Not a bastard."
"You still feel sorry for me when I scold him? Why do you feel sorry for him?" Shi Bufan stopped, his eyes seemed to swallow him alive, Zhen Yuanbai's lips trembled, and he flattened his mouth and said, "It's two bastards."
Shi Bufan put away his ferocious face, dragged him all the way inside, closed his own umbrella, then snatched his umbrella and held it in his hand, saying: "Who are they all?"
"It's not what Ye Lian said."
"Qiu Jing and Ming Mai?" Shi Bufan pushed him into the elevator and said, "Okay, three bastards, I will send them all to the hospital tomorrow."
Zhen Yuanbai's eyes were slightly swollen from crying. He probably felt cold. He was still wearing a thin jacket when he came out. Shi Bufan squeezed his cold hand and said, "Have you had your lunch?"
Zhen Yuanbai began to feel sad again: "I didn't even eat breakfast."
Shi Bufan was dumb for a while, dragged him all the way home, pressed him on the bed and muzzled him: "I'll go and see what ingredients you have at home, and cook noodles for you."
"I don't like noodles."
"Is that called takeaway?"
Zhen Yuanbai nodded, and Shi Bufan took out his mobile phone and ordered him a bowl of lean meat porridge, and ordered some other delicious food, and asked, "Your mother is a doctor, so there should be a medicine cabinet at home, right?"
Zhen Yuanbai nodded, and pointed him to the place. The latter found the fever-reducing medicine, poured hot water into it, looked at his wet eyes, and said, "Just because of those three stinking idiots, you feel I lie to you?"
"At first, I thought it was inexplicable that you liked me." Zhen Yuanbai raised his hand to wipe his tears uselessly, but Shi Bufan had no choice but to say, "Why is it inexplicable? How many times have I told you? Just don't believe it?"
"Then why do you say you have a crush on me..." Zhen Yuanbai looked at him with puppy-like eyes, Shi Bufan was talking vigorously just now, but now he is dumb again.
That bastard Ye Lian.
He kicked Ye Lian's head into outer space again in his heart, and remained silent for a long time with a stern face.
Zhen Yuan pouted: "You still want to lie to me, you..."
"I didn't lie to you." Shi Bufan said with an ugly face: "I have liked you since the first year of high school."
"You put it..." Zhen Yuanbai refrained from swearing: "You are lying."
"..." Shi Bufan's expression seemed to swallow a cesspool, and he couldn't hold back a word for a long time. Why do some TV dramas mention secret loves, there are people who help to speak for them, and then let the crush be moved quietly, and when they come to him, they have to tell those extremely shameful things one by one in person
Zhen Yuanbai saw that he was silent, but the tips of his ears were already blushing, and he believed it in his heart: "What evidence do you have that you have been secretly in love with me since freshman year of high school?"
"... What evidence do you have for having a crush on you? Does it count if you secretly took a picture of you?" Shi Bufan seemed to explode at any moment, staring at him with black eyes, Zhen Yuanbai trembled under his stare, and said sullenly: "Convenience The elder brother of the store said, you used to come to my house often... yes, did you visit my house?"
"if not?"
Zhen Yuanbai sat up straight all of a sudden, and said in disbelief, "You really used to stay up late at night and come to visit my house?"
"It's funny?" Shi Bufan's voice was cold. Zhen Yuanbai felt cold at first, but now he felt even colder. Wrapped in a quilt, he said, "That's right, quite silly."
Shi Bufan tilted his head and suddenly bullied himself, Zhen Yuanbai pulled up the quilt to cover his head in fright, the doorbell just rescued him, Shi Bufan stood up expressionlessly, went out and took back the takeaway.
Zhen Yuanbai poked his head out to look at him, kicked the quilt under his feet, sat on the edge of the bed and picked up his porridge, and said softly, "Does liking me make you feel ashamed?"
"What do you say?"
Zhen Yuanbai pursed his lips and smiled, "You're still shy."
"Are you really..."
Shi Bufan's threatening words were suddenly blocked by a pair of soft lips, and Zhen Yuanbai quickly withdrew, saying, "It's really sad."
He lowered his eyelashes, and said in a low voice, "As long as I think that you have someone else you like very much, I feel very sad."
Shi Bufan said: "...then you don't come to ask me? You delete my contact information without asking clearly, without any hesitation? Huh?"
"People who don't like me, I don't want to continue to like them."
"..." Shi Bufan's heart ached, Zhen Yuanbai glanced at him, and said, "Now it's troublesome."
"?"
Zhen Yuanbai scooped up the porridge with a spoon, and said in a distressed voice, "How can I tell you to understand?"
"In fact, I really, really can't help but like you."
