84.
On New Year's Day, Cheng Feichi, who rushed back from City S overnight, ate a new dish developed by Ye Qin—tiger skin pepper.
"How's it going?" Ye Qin watched Cheng Feichi bite down expectantly, "I beat the shrimp with my hands, and it took 20 minutes to make it strong. Does it taste good?"
Cheng Feichi chewed it twice, and there were a few shallow furrows between his brows.
Ye Qin's heart skipped a beat: "What's the matter, isn't it delicious?"
After eating one, Cheng Feichi picked up another one: "Shrimp meat tastes very good." He turned the hot pepper over, "But the hot pepper is wrong, it's two vitex."
Ye Qin had never heard of this term, so he took out his mobile phone Baidu, compared the picture with the plate, and said dejectedly: "I said, why is it so thin, it can't fit any shrimp meat... The stall owner even lied to me that this kind of dish is brought It’s just right for tiger skin peppers.”
While talking, Cheng Feichi ate another one, and commented: "It's just right for me, but it's too spicy for you, so you shouldn't eat more."
Ye Qin laughed through his tears: "It's okay, as long as you like it, I can pick out the shrimp and eat it."
The two of them each ate a bowl of white rice with a dish, and Cheng Feichi filled Yeqin's bowl with pure shrimp that had been picked out countless times.
After eating, Ye Qin touched his belly and lamented that the nutritional combination of the previous month was in vain, and returned to the pre-liberation with one meal. Cheng Feichi comforted him and said: "Occasionally an unreasonable diet structure will stimulate the body's inner potential and accelerate metabolism."
"real?"
"Um."
Ye Qin had always believed in Cheng Feichi's words, and immediately went to make soy milk happily.
After finishing the game, he wandered around the sofa, waited for Cheng Feichi to look up from the computer screen, and quickly asked the question in his heart: "Where did you hear the name Erjingtiao, I read that it is a must-have in Sichuan cuisine?"
Cheng Feichi said: "When I was studying abroad, there was a classmate from S province in my class who would bring a bunch of peppers from China every year. He taught us about the science and said that this kind of long and thin pepper is called Erjingtiao. .”
"Oh..." Ye Qin nodded, "Are there many Chinese students in your school? What do you usually eat, study, and play?"
Cheng Feichi answered them one by one, and finally asked, "Are you interested in our school?"
Ye Qin lowered his head and played with the pillow: "Yeah, I'm going to go to college too, just be curious."
This is an excuse. In fact, he is only interested in the places his brother has been and the things he has experienced.
Cheng Feichi took it seriously, and quickly arranged the work for the next year in his mind, and said, "Wait until this summer, I will take you to see it, and go to a tropical island by the way."
With a scream, Ye Qin threw the pillow away, jumped up and stood on the sofa. Realizing that his reaction was too violent, he slowly lowered his legs and sat back, putting on a good appearance of "everything is arranged by brother".
After Cheng Feichi turned off the computer, he shook his arm and said, "Summer is still a long time... Before that, can brother accompany me to the sixth middle school?"
The time is set for February 14, the day after Cheng Feichi's 26th birthday.
As soon as he got off the plane, Cheng Feichi went straight to No. 6 Middle School.
Ye Qin was waiting under the ginkgo tree on the side of the road. He couldn't smile when he saw someone coming. He walked ahead with his head twisted and his mouth pouted. The loose shoelaces were very eye-catching. Bao He also shook his head in refusal, until he received a rose out of his pocket, his expression softened.
He was either angry, or felt that the timing was so damn unlucky. It's fine that they didn't spend the Spring Festival together. He had a job in the capital yesterday, and Cheng Feichi had to go back to City S because of a temporary errand, so they couldn't celebrate their birthday together.
Birthday Birthday is the day of birth, so what's the point of postponing it by a day
The two walked side by side on the small path leading to the back door of No. 6 Middle School. Ye Qin looked at the flowers in his hand and said coyly, "I didn't make an appointment this time, so forget it. The next birthday, the next one, and the next one, all are fine." Come with me."
"Okay." Cheng Feichi responded immediately, and added an additional guarantee, "I'm a puppy if I don't live with you."
The winter vacation is not yet over, and the parking lot at the back door of No. 6 Middle School is empty. Yeqin didn't come back here for a long time, he leaned on the outer railing to look inside, because he couldn't get in and complained that if the fence was built back then, so many cars wouldn't be stolen.
Cheng Feichi agreed: "If there were fences back then, my car tires would not have been punctured by some people."
Even knowing that he was teasing himself, Ye Qin still blushed and argued in vain: "Then I didn't pierce that, it was Zhou Feng and the others, I was just watching... Besides, didn't you clean the car for compensation later? "
Although he reluctantly wiped it under the threat, he was so wronged that he almost shed tears.
On the days when the students are on vacation, the school gate still has to be guarded. Now the condition of the No. 6 Middle School is better, the back door has been changed to an electric door, and a sentry box has been built beside it. The security uncle is sitting inside and dozing off with the electric heater on. He was woken up by the sound of knocking on the window, and the boss opened the window unhappily. There is a crack: "The school is an important place, and no one else is allowed to enter."
Cheng Feichi and Ye Qin shouted "Hello, Uncle" together, and then he opened his eyes to look at them carefully, and said in surprise, "It's you two."
The security uncle at the back door is still the same one. Back then when the two fell in love, they had a crush on sneaking through the back door after everyone in the school had disappeared, bumped into this security guy several times, and sometimes the door was closed, and Ye Qin was begging for nothing to chase after him and say good things. , the uncle reluctantly helped to open the door.
"I said you two little ghosts... Cough, you can't be called little ghosts now. You two alumni have always caused trouble for me when I was studying, and you stayed until the end of the day every day, and you said that you are studying in the classroom," the security uncle said remotely. The electric door complained, "When I'm blind, the teaching building is dark and there is no classroom with lights on. Are you two tutoring in the toilet cubicle?"
Ye Qin stretched out his left foot, asked Cheng Feichi to tie his shoelace, and said with a smile, "It's just tutoring, we're serious about it."
The security uncle sneered, his mustache blowing up, staring at the two of them for a while, then said: "You two are brothers, right? I think so, you always see you go in and out together, wish you could wear a pair of pants."
At this moment, Ye Qin was not so resistant to this title, and when Cheng Feichi finished tying his shoelaces and straightened up, the two looked at each other and smiled.
From the eyes of each other, they both understood why some people always think they are like brothers. Because as long as the other side is around, they only have each other in their eyes.
Entering the school, Ye Qin went straight to the canteen. It's a pity that the door of the commissary is closed because school hasn't started yet.
Ye Qin breathed hot air on the window glass, wiped off the dust with his hands to make a clean space, put his face on it and looked in hard, his eyes were sore, but he couldn't find a milk-flavored lollipop on the counter.
When the two returned to the renovated playground, Ye Qin was still muttering: "Why are there no more? The boss changed so you didn't buy anymore... Then where did you buy the lollipop you gave me earlier?"
Cheng Feichi smiled: "Secret."
Ye Qin rolled his eyes: "It must be purchased online from Xbao. It's more convenient in our country. Everything can be bought online."
Yeqin took this trip to the No. 6 Middle School as a tourist trip. He got a DSLR from somewhere, held it in his hand, and walked all the way to shoot, even the flagpole on the playground.
Naturally, he would not let go of the opportunity to take pictures of his brother. Cheng Feichi didn't know how many times he turned his head and saw Ye Qin looking around here with nothing but three hundred taels of silver, and the tip of his ears were still red, so he knew he had been secretly photographed again.
After filming, I went back to the teaching building and walked around. The current Class 2 (1) and Class 2 (2) are still distributed in the two teaching buildings. Ye Qin walked back and forth on the corridor in the middle several times, and took Cheng Feichi to the Look in from the first window of the front door of class 2 (1).
"It's here that I saw you for the first time." Ye Qin turned sideways to the classroom diagonally, pointing to the last row. "At that time you just lay there and slept without looking up at me."
Cheng Feichi didn't know about this. He thought it was because he couldn't find a balance between study and part-time work when he first transferred to No. 6 Middle School. Occasionally, when he was tired, he would catch up on evening self-study.
"Then why didn't you call me?" Cheng Feichi asked.
Ye Qin curled his lips and said, "Your class is too quiet to scream. And at that time, I thought you were robbing my friend's girlfriend. Why did I tell you?"
There was an inexplicable sour taste in the words, reminding Cheng Feichi of the stupid things Ye Qin had done to guard against his suitors, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up, and his smiling eyes looked at Ye Qin tenderly.
Ye Qin had been stared at by him for a long time, feeling uncomfortable: "Why...why do you keep looking at me?"
"Didn't you say I don't look at you?" Cheng Feichi said, "Now look at you for a while, just you."
Ye Qin's face turned as red as a boiled shrimp in an instant, he held the camera to cover his face with one hand, and pushed Cheng Feichi's shoulder with the other, urging him, "Let's go, let's go, it's terribly cold to stand on this vent."
When it was getting dark, the two bid farewell to the security man who opened the door for them, and walked back to the familiar path.
Ye Qin, who had been chattering for half the afternoon, suddenly stopped talking for some reason. Walking to the corner leading to the main road, Cheng Feichi saw him pinching the shoulder strap of the backpack in his hand, so he probably guessed what he was going to do.
Sure enough, walking on the sidewalk, Yeqin opened the zipper of his backpack, reached in and fumbled for a long time, and took out a square box.
"Valentine's Day gift." Ye Qin twisted his neck awkwardly, not looking at Cheng Feichi's expression, "It's not something valuable, you can wear it as you like."
Cheng Feichi took it, opened the box, and inside was a men's watch. He immediately took it out, replaced the one he was wearing on his wrist, raised his wrist to look at it from various angles, and said with a smile: "One flower for one watch, it's a profit."
Knowing that Cheng Feichi didn't lack this watch, Ye Qin really couldn't think of anything else to give, so he chose a relatively suitable one from the personal items, and spent the first sum of money he saved after paying off his debts.
Seeing that Cheng Feichi really liked it now, he finally let go of the stone hanging in his heart, and he still held it on the surface: "It's just an ordinary gift. When I become popular in the future, this kind of watch will be changed every day, and the same watch will not be repeated in a month. "
Cheng Feichi smiled noncommittally about Ye Qin always thinking about raising himself at home, thinking that he would be like the little sun he knew with a heart higher than the sky.
The two walked on foot, passed a red light, and walked to the road closest to Ye Qin's former home. Cheng Feichi clearly noticed that Ye Qin had become silent again.
There should be something left.
Although Ye Qin moved away from this house for a long time, every time he came to this place, apart from nostalgia for the past, it still gave him some courage that he couldn't create out of thin air when he was in other places.
Under the dim streetlights, whoever stopped first, the other person also stood still, only the sound of vehicles passing by on the road was left in my ears.
Ye Qin turned to Cheng Feichi, and finally took out the glass jar that had been hidden for a long time.
"Birth, birthday gift, happy birthday brother." Ye Qin was so nervous that his hands trembled and his voice trembled, he cleared his throat, and pretended to be relaxed according to what he had just said, "It's just an ordinary birthday present, you can take it for fun. "
Cheng Feichi took it casually, opened the bottle cap, took out a star and put it in his hand to play with.
Seeing that his reaction was so flat, Ye Qin was not reconciled, and asked with a frown, "Can't you, can't you be a little surprised?"
Cheng Feichi pondered for a while, his eyes widened slightly, and he half-opened his mouth and let out a "wow".
He is naturally more rational than emotional, and rarely has strong emotional ups and downs. He pretends to be surprised and is so fake that he can't be more fake. Ye Qin couldn't bear to look directly at him, he lowered his head in frustration, and cheered himself up: "Wow... that's great."
His voice was listless, and he blamed himself for being careless. If he hadn't missed a single star and dropped it in his coat pocket, Cheng Feichi might be really surprised right now.
How could Cheng Feichi not know what was going on in the little guy's head.
In order to protect Yeqin's face, he turned a blind eye to many things and pretended not to know. For example, he had already discovered the Lego mechanical set covered by glass under the bed, and he also saw a neat stack of small test papers pressed on the bottom.
Another example is that once I heard movement in the next room, followed the sound to find an old-fashioned mobile phone from the bookcase drawer, opened it and swipe right to delete the ad push that made the sound, and then I saw a photo of myself staying on the interface.
Ye Qin got his wish. After dinner in the evening, he started the student mode with the script in hand, and prepared for the first exam at the Capital Film Academy next week with peace of mind.
One of them was a proposition sketch. Ye Qin's line skills were not strong, and one person could not play two roles. Seeing that Cheng Feichi's work had come to an end and he was reading a book in his hands, he forced him to find out his lines with himself.
It was an emotional scene full of tension. Cheng Feichi picked up the script and read two lines before subconsciously frowned, hesitated for about half a minute, and then said stiffly: "I fly over the garden wall with the light wings of love..."
"No, no." Ye Qin interrupted him, pointing to the name on the script, "You read the part about Juliet."
Cheng Feichi pursed his lips for a moment, adjusted his posture, and read like a text: "Tell me, how did you come here, why did you come here... If they see you, they will definitely kill you."
"I fly over the garden wall with the light wings of love, because love cannot be blocked by masonry walls." After reading this, Ye Qin raised his head and winked at him playfully, "Your eyes are twenty years older than theirs." The sword is still powerful, as long as you look at me with gentle eyes, they can't hurt my body... let alone my heart."
It was rare for Yeqin to go to bed late that day.
Cheng Feichi removed the script that he had covered his face, picked him up and sent him back to the bed in the room, saw the glass jar by the bed, picked it up and sat by the bed to look at it carefully.
The little guy who is sleeping soundly on the bed is very smart, he knows what he cares most about and what he wants most, and he makes up for it in his own way one by one. Although this cleverness is only occasional, most of the time it is stupid, but every time it can accurately poke the softness buried in the deepest part of his heart that has never been shown in front of others.
This little guy must not know that the meaning of this bottle of stars to him is far more than a simple birthday gift.
Back then, he held the can of stars in his hand and walked on the dark road in a daze. For a long time, he seemed to be unable to see everything around him. Only the palm of his hand was illuminated by the clustered stars, so bright that he couldn't move his eyes.
There is a clock tower near No. 6 Middle School that tells the time on the hour. It was the second day of his birthday, and the last minute of Valentine’s Day passed. The melodious bell rang in his ears, and it struck twelve times. Go forward step by step.
As he walked, he forgot where he was, and even forgot who he was, and what mission he had to fulfill. He abandoned all distracting thoughts, no matter whether it was a cliff or a deep-sea trench in front of him, there was only one thought in his mind, Just sink in.
No one will ever know that at midnight on February 15 six years ago, for the first time in his life, he broke free from the shackles of action, threw away the involuntary that trapped him like a prison, and opened a strange door. door, into a whole new world.
It is both an adventure and a new life.
Behind the door is what he has found in a dull life, and he is eager to give, and even more eager to have.
If you have to describe him accurately, 99% of his life follows the rules, while Yeqin is the 1% rebellious. It is this seemingly insignificant one percent that constitutes all the heartbeat and enthusiasm in his cold and boring life.
Cheng Feichi unscrewed the bottle cap, took out a star, put it in his palm, and clenched it into his fist.
The turbulent light and shadow in the eyes gradually gathered and settled, and at the moment when the second hand turned the scale "12", Cheng Feichi leaned over and planted a soft and cherished kiss on Ye Qin's forehead.
85.
Five days later in the morning, when Ye Qin came out of the interview site, a few fans jumped out of the group of people gathered at the door. When they came up, they held up their cameras and snapped at him, asking him how he was doing in the exam and whether he was sure to enter the re-examination. .
Ye Qin scratched his head: "There are all beauties and handsome men in the age of seventeen or eighteen. I can be their uncle at my age... As the saying goes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, so let them have confidence and grasp."
A girl once advised him not to underestimate himself: "What's the matter at the age of twenty-three, we Qinqin have rich stage experience and life experience, which is much higher than them. not late."
Hearing this, Ye Qin panicked, waved his hands and said: "If you are not rich, you are not rich at all. You are amazing. People like me can close your eyes and talk nonsense. Change your career and become a lecturer. Maybe you can use the encouragement method to save many social mistakes. youth."
The girls laughed together and waved their hands to remind Ye Qin not to forget to watch tonight's premiere before sending Ye Qin to the car.
When the car was on the road, Ye Qin suddenly remembered that the idol drama filmed last summer seemed to be about to start broadcasting.
He took out his mobile phone and surfed the Internet to find the final version of the trailer. After reading it, he went to browse the comments. The first few hot comments were all about the male and female protagonists and Amway. When he turned to the bottom, there were several discussions about other supporting roles.
There was a comment asking, "Is this younger brother in school uniform ranked tenth in the juvenile sense last year?" There were more than ten replies below, almost copying Yeqin's Baidu Encyclopedia section by section, and attached A few hard photos with 800 layers of filters added.
It's not an exaggeration at all, no matter how big or small the photo is, you can't find any pores. Ye Qin shuddered when he saw it, and felt that the fans were so amazing, the filter that came with his pupils might be 800 times thicker than this photo.
Cheng Feichi was inspecting and inspecting the hotel in S city when he received Ye Qin's call.
Just after the new year, the hotel industry, which has experienced a busy holiday, can finally take a breather, take a rest and prepare for the next occupancy peak.
The two front desk clerks were on shift when it was time, and they were chatting about the TV series to be broadcast tonight while walking towards the staff lounge. They raised their heads and bumped into Cheng Feichi who was walking towards him. He immediately put away his smiles and straightened his back, posing a standard welcoming gesture and respectfully Nodding to him, Cheng Feichi nodded, and sternly walked through the path they made.
When the person walked away, the two girls immediately relaxed, abandoned the topic just now and continued to whisper.
"Our Chief Cheng is really handsome, but he has a fierce face all day long, and he is not afraid to scare his girlfriend away?"
"How do you know it's your girlfriend?" Another waiter said thoughtfully, "I don't know why, but I always feel that Mr. Cheng treats his lover differently in private. I heard that he can cook. Last month He also personally supervised the reform of the hotel’s kitchen menu.”
"Ah - who can be his other half in the future, it's too enviable..."
At the same time, the envied person sneezed into the phone, pinched his nose and said, "Can't go back to the capital today?"
A word "again" is enough to show dissatisfaction, Cheng Feichi said: "It's good to finish the work for a while, and I can stay in the capital next month."
Perhaps it was because he had just withdrawn from a performance that he had devoted himself wholeheartedly to. Ye Qin felt a little drifting, the kind of drifting that was exhausted. Uncontrollable thoughts.
He leaned his head back on the car seat, looked at the gray and white roof with distracted eyes, and asked Cheng Feichi: "If, I said, if I didn't meet you at that time, would you take the initiative to come to me?"
It was about when Cheng Feichi had just returned to China.
Maybe it's because these days are so happy, so happy that it's a little illusory. He always thinks of the scene he saw for the first time after the reunion. Sometimes he feels ashamed as if he returned to the scene, and sometimes he feels lucky. The world is so big, and the entertainment industry is so complicated, meeting them in that kind of place is completely considered a small probability event.
Thinking about it this way, God didn't treat him kindly.
But he still dreaded hearing an answer.
So when Cheng Feichi was about to say something, Ye Qin hurriedly repented and said, "I'll ask casually, it's the same for anyone."
Cheng Feichi didn't continue talking. He noticed that Ye Qin was depressed, hesitated for a moment, and changed the subject: "How is the interview going?"
"That's it." Thinking of staying in the empty room alone again tonight, Ye Qin couldn't get up, "The room is full of boys and girls as tender as water onions, and when I stand inside, it's a leftover from yesterday's kitchen. Day lily."
Cheng Feichi said: "Don't say that about yourself. If it doesn't work this time, there will be another time. The key is to accumulate experience."
Ye Qin raised his eyebrows: "Didn't your bosses only look at the results, not the process?"
Cheng Feichi was amused by him: "Who said that?"
"It's in the script." Ye Qin turned his gaze back to the phone screen, turned on the speakerphone, and read him a few lines from the male lead in the trailer.
As he listened, Cheng Feichi suddenly thought of something and asked, "The TV series you're acting in is starting today?"
Ye Qin was a little surprised: "Yes, how do you know?"
Cheng Feichi didn't answer. He walked out of the hotel and said, "Read me a few words about your evaluation."
Ye Qin flipped through the comments below the trailer and read them to him as if reporting work. Most of them were comments from fans who came to Amway, and finally found one that was instructive. It said that this younger brother does not look like a rural child. , exuding the aura of a noble young master, looking a bit out of character.
Strictly speaking, appearance and clothing are beyond Yeqin's control, but he feels that an actor has to look like whatever he plays, so he is inevitably a little frustrated.
Cheng Feichi gave him an opinion contrary to the comment: "Temperament is a more significant characteristic of a person than appearance and figure. There is no need to deliberately change it for anyone or anything." After a pause for a few seconds, he added, "You are By my side, you can always be the delicate young master."
The words are still reserved, which is in line with Cheng Feichi's calm and reserved nature that has become more and more ingrained over the years.
But Ye Qin understood everything. Some emotions need to be vented and expressed loudly through lines, but different people and different occasions always have a lot of content that cannot be expressed in words, and the audience in the audience needs to perceive it with their hearts.
Cheng Feichi didn't say it out loud, but he used his actions to tell him clearly that - as long as I have it, as long as you want it, I can give it to you.
Two hours later, Ye Qin sat in the waiting hall of the airport to answer Zheng Yueyue's phone call.
"Ask for leave? Ask for leave again? My ancestor, do you know what's going on outside? Weibo is posting photos of this year's film school freshmen everywhere, and you're one of them. Why don't you just stay at home and post selfies at a time like this? Familiar face, still running around? Waiting for you to be taken care of by the heir of the Yi family, after the interview, you can’t wait for the news sent by thousands of miles to be on the front page tomorrow?"
Ye Qin was so bombarded by Lianzhu Cannon's words that his ears hurt, he plugged in the earphones and turned down the volume, and said, "He and I are not in a foster relationship, we are serious about dating."
"Is there a difference? In the eyes of others, it is nurturing, and it can only be nurturing. Don't you know this better than me?"
Ye Qin lowered his head, was stunned for a long time, and said lazily: "But I miss him...I want to see him."
An inexplicable sentence made Zheng Yueyue quiet down.
Yeqin has been wearing a mask of a hippie smile since his debut, and rarely reveals his true emotions in front of others. Especially when he was splashed with dirty water when he first debuted, the edges and corners of his body seemed to be smoothed overnight, and he was not so sensible as a little boy of this age.
So when she heard such a reason for defying the arrangement so suddenly, Zheng Yueyue shouldn't have reacted for a while.
After a long while, she sighed: "Go if you want to, cover it tightly, and don't let people take pictures."
Ye Qin's eyes exposed outside the mask were bent into two crescents: "Okay, thank you sister Yueyue."
The plane took off on time.
The moment the pulley left the ground and spread his wings to the sky, Ye Qin took a deep breath and clearly felt that his body and soul were leaving the control of the land together with the plane.
Perhaps it is especially suitable for thinking when you are in a state of weightlessness. He suddenly realized that the question he asked Cheng Feichi on the phone two hours ago was a bit funny.
Looking back with such thoughts, the messy melancholy that has been entrenched in my heart for many days, especially the anxiety about the irresolvable gap, has become insignificant.
Yeqin remembered that when sorting out her mother's belongings, she found a line written with a pen on the title page of the book she often read - loving someone makes even breathing become brave.
Besides, he was not an indecisive person in the first place.
Since a reunion must leave a gap, since there must always be someone who takes the initiative to take a step, and someone must make a compromise, whoever comes first, he or me, what difference does it make
The past can never be recalled, and the time left for them will become less and less every day, and every minute and every second is worth grasping tightly.
The plane was going up and down in constant ups and downs. Yeqin closed his eyes, touched the ring on his left hand with his right hand, and slowly exhaled the air he had sucked into his lungs.
He has flown many times and traveled to many places. The more he sees the vastness of the world during the journey, the more he understands his own insignificance.
He is as small as him, and he is swaying around when the wind blows, but for the first time at this moment, he is so sure of the direction he is going.
Wherever there is you is the direction I want to go.
Where are you, I will be there.
The author has something to say:
The lines in Chapter 84 are quoted from "Romeo and Juliet" --- It's over, thank you for your company for more than three months, thank you for liking them in the story, see you in the episode!
Episode 1: The Sixth Year
That day, Cheng Feichi returned to the capital from S City, and stayed alone in the emptied home for half an hour under the pretext of going back to get things.
On the way to the airport, he received a call from Yi Zheng. He first expressed a few words of concern in a fatherly manner, and then said, "If it wasn't for the donation from Dad a few years ago to pave the way for you, you would not have been able to successfully apply for that school. Get rid of distracting thoughts over there, study hard, and strive to return from school as soon as possible, don't let your mother worry."
These two simple sentences convey the meaning behind the words without leaking anything - everything you get now depends on my background, don't forget what you promised me, start doing what you should do from today, and let go of what you shouldn't worry about.
When I hung up the phone, the car was passing No. 6 Middle School. Today is the first day of school, and there are people coming and going at the gate. Through the wide open iron gate, you can see the neatly lined up students on the playground. It should be the opening ceremony.
Cheng Feichi only glanced briefly and then looked away.
Yi Zheng's worry was not unreasonable, but it was still a bit redundant.
He has never been a person who remembers the past. The world is changing rapidly, and so is life. He has never regretted the decision he made, and it is impossible to look back.
In the first year, Cheng Feichi attended the language class for half a year.
He went abroad in a hurry and did not have an IELTS score. Fortunately, he has a good foundation in English, and he is catching up with the fall semester after graduating from the language class.
Yi Zheng gave him a lot of living expenses, but he was used to frugality, so he didn't choose a studio, but shared an en-suit with a few classmates.
Local students generally like to be lively. You can often hear the noise inside when you stand outside the door. Especially on weekends, the kitchen party lasts all night. So Cheng Feichi spent most of the day at school, carrying a notebook in his schoolbag, went to the library to continue studying after class, and went back to sleep at night.
He was a loner, and usually he didn't see anyone in the dormitory, and he didn't participate in various forms of parties. After a long time, he became a transparent person in the eyes of his classmates.
He has no idea about it. Changing the country is just changing the language of daily communication. For him, life is no different from before. He has never been a person who is afraid of loneliness.
Occasionally receiving a call from Yi Hui would give him the illusion of being suddenly pulled back to reality.
For example, on the eve of Christmas Eve this year, the school and dormitory were covered with Christmas trees and colorful lights, but Yi Hui said on the phone: "Today is the winter solstice, brother, have you eaten glutinous rice balls?"
It was already night at Cheng Feichi's side, he was stunned for a moment, and stopped flipping the book, reacting for a while before saying: "No, there are no glutinous rice balls here."
"What about dumplings? Mom said you can eat dumplings."
"nor."
"Ah... my brother is so pitiful." Yi Hui regretted, "When my brother comes back, Huihui will treat him to eat glutinous rice balls and dumplings!"
On the way back to the dormitory from the classroom, white snow suddenly fell in the dark sky. A few Chinese students on the road stopped to take pictures in surprise. In the eyes of most people, there is nothing more suitable for Christmas than snow.
Perhaps influenced by them, Cheng Feichi stopped and watched the snowflakes falling on the ground one after another, when a voice suddenly sounded in his ear, asking him if he knew what day it was.
The clear voice seemed to come from the depths of the cliff. It was as light and soft as snow, but it made Cheng Feichi's heart ache.
Against the heavier and heavier snow, he lifted his feet and walked away without stopping for a moment.
In the second year, because of Yan Hong's appearance, Cheng Feichi's social status changed slightly.
At first he didn't understand why this girl was pestering him all day long. She could be seen everywhere in the classroom, library, and dormitory. He didn't understand the stakes until he received a call from his mother, Cheng Xin, asking him to take care of Yan Hong and walk around with Yan Hong often, and heard similar words from Yi Zheng.
Even in a school where people of all skin colors gather, Yan Hong is still an eye-catching presence. With a good family background and a lively and cheerful personality, there is never a shortage of suitors around her.
Because of her entanglement, Cheng Feichi, who was originally unknown in school, also attracted attention. Rumors and rumors followed one after another, and the rumor that he was an illegitimate child was widely circulated among local Chinese students from that time on.
At first, he only dared to point behind his back, but after Yi Zheng's original wife came to the school to "visit" for the second time, everyone knew Cheng Feichi's identity, so no one was taboo anymore, just mocking and talking in front of him Cheng Feichi had been excluded four or five times.
Cheng Xin often called to inquire about his study and life, and there were so many opportunities, but Cheng Feichi never told her about it. First of all, he thinks it is unnecessary. He has experienced many such things since he was a child, and he has long been able to enter the left ear and exit the right ear without changing his face.
Besides, they were telling the truth, and he had no reason to refute.
Cheng Feichi once used this to reject Yan Hong and asked her to choose among the real wealthy men around her. Yan Hong refused, and came to him again and again, saying that she liked him if she didn't like others.
This unyielding energy almost reminded Cheng Feichi of another person.
But before this thought took shape in his mind, he artificially shifted his target to prevent himself from thinking about it.
Yan Hong was still rejected.
His heart is too small, even the blocked memories are not enough, and there is no room for others.
In the third year, Cheng Feichi was so busy that he only had four or five hours of sleep a day in order to study in advance for graduate school.
Cheng Xin's health was deteriorating, especially in winter. From the phone, she could hear her weak voice and listless spirit.
This year, the only entertainment event that Cheng Feichi participated in was the Lego competition held in this state.
The roommate who lives next door to him is from the province of S. He returned to the country for Christmas and brought back half a suitcase of chili peppers. He stuffed him with a bundle, saying that it was called Erjingtiao, and it was delicious when used to roast chicken, duck, or rabbit.
He used it to cook a fish, and the aroma attracted most of the students in the dormitory. Everyone sat around the table, you took a chopstick and a spoon, chatted and talked about the Lego competition next month, surrounded by everyone Cheng Feichi hooked up with each other, and Cheng Feichi hardly participated in group activities, so he finally agreed because of face.
Encounter an old friend at the game site. The man named Zhao Yue saw him and went up to say hello, seeing that he reacted coldly and had no intention of chatting, so he left resentfully.
When he started to build the work, Cheng Feichi knew that they wanted to use the mechanical group plan he had made, and he refused it.
"You did it if you gave it away. You are the owner of the plan." One of the classmates persuaded, "It's just used to participate in the competition, no one will know."
Cheng Feichi still refused.
"Since it has been given to him, this plan belongs to him alone." Cheng Feichi's gaze remained on the plan, "I have no right to take back his things without permission."
In the fourth year, Cheng Feichi started graduate school.
One night, I received a call from the nanny who was taking care of Cheng Xin: "Can you come back and take a look? Ma'am is very ill, and she keeps calling your name in her dreams."
Cheng Feichi hung up the phone and turned on the computer to book a flight ticket. Every time he got stuck when making the payment, the interface repeatedly showed that the balance was insufficient. He took the card to the ATM and swiped it, but he also couldn't withdraw the money, including all the money he had saved and deposited from his part-time job before, all of which were frozen.
Called and left text messages for Yi Zheng, but did not receive a reply all night. Cheng Feichi vaguely guessed that it might be the ghost of that woman, but he couldn't wait, fearing that something might happen to Cheng Xin, so he had no choice but to borrow money from his classmates .
The time was not coincidental, and a few people he knew well took advantage of the vacation to travel to neighboring countries, but they couldn't get in touch within a short time, so Cheng Feichi borrowed it from a Chinese student in the dormitory next door, promising to return it immediately after returning.
The boy didn't refuse, and asked him to wait at the door for a while without a smile on his face. After a while, laughter came from the room. Cheng Feichi listened to a few words, probably mocking him for going back in such a hurry to give the truth to the Yi family. The young master rides like a horse.
He didn't get angry, and he didn't argue. He let them laugh enough and took out the money. He politely said "thank you" to them in the eyes of people in the room waiting to see the joke.
Returning to the country in a hurry, Cheng Xin, who was lying on the hospital bed, was very surprised to see him, and asked him what he was doing when he came back, and told him to go back to study quickly, and don't let Yi Zheng know.
Seeing that his mother was fine, Cheng Feichi heaved a sigh of relief. He just got off the long-distance plane of more than ten hours, and returned to the airport under the urging of Cheng Xin, and he was unable to pursue the matter of being cheated and freezing his bank card.
On the way, he looked through the car window at his motherland, which he had been away for more than three years. Unfortunately, the street buildings in City S were very different from those in the capital, which could not make him feel close.
Didn't expect to see that person on the TV screen of the bus.
His appearance was always so unexpected that it was too late for Cheng Feichi to avoid it.
That bright smiling face appears in the ad, posing awkwardly and speaking awkward lines. Cheng Feichi subconsciously wanted to look elsewhere, but for some reason he forced himself to look directly at the screen, as if to prove that he didn't care.
After the commercial ended, he turned his head and continued to look out the window.
This time he kept his eyes on and focused, as if he wanted to engrave all the scenery along the way in his mind, so as to drive other things out.
The fifth year is the busiest year.
Endless papers, reports, and seminars, Cheng Feichi wanted to pass the assessment and return home as soon as possible. He just set foot on this land four years ago, and the time he gave himself was no more than five years.
Yan Hong made a fuss about going back to China with him, so she gave up the opportunity to study for graduate school. Cheng Feichi disagreed, and she said nonchalantly, "It's useless for me to read so many books. I can't inherit the family business, so let me be lazy."
This move convinced everyone around them that they were a couple, and Cheng Feichi couldn't explain it.
