The second class in the morning was an English class. The teacher asked the whole class to write the reading comprehension part of the English weekly report within half an hour.
The classroom was silent, except for the sound of newspapers turning pages and a gentle cough. Even students who were blowing their nose did not dare to blow too hard, for fear that a blowing nose could reverberate through the classroom.
Xu Xing held a ballpoint pen between his fingers, spinning it carelessly around his fingers. His attention was focused on the short text, and he casually drew the sentences corresponding to the keywords in the title.
Xu Xing swiped the tip of his pen on the newspaper, making a slight rubbing sound, and out of the corner of his eyes caught sight of Xiong Huan, who was sitting at the table in front of him, turning around without warning.
She turned back very decisively, as if she had already made up her mind before turning back.
Xu Xing was quite surprised. Following Xiong Huan's gaze, he looked back and saw the painting framed by the back door of the classroom. In addition to the blue sky and white clouds, another handsome and handsome boy suddenly walked into the painting.
"Report."
The boy stood at the back door of the classroom, his voice was still magnetic and pleasant, but he didn't have the same smile as when he stood on the podium at the beginning of the school year and praised girls with ponytails in front of the whole class.
The English teacher heard the reputation and nodded to him.
Fu Dai walked into the classroom and returned to his seat without looking sideways.
Since he appeared at the back door of the classroom, Xiong Huan's eyes never left his body, and there was a gleam of eager expectation in his cold pupils. Fu Dai finally came back to class, and she was very happy, but Fu Dai walked back to her seat from the door and didn't look at her from beginning to end...
Xiong Huan pursed his lips, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
Xu Xing had already frowned, and he could clearly see the red line on Fu Dai's chest, like a gradually withering flower, on the verge of withering.
The red line on Xiong Huan's side was still red and bright, but the red line drawn by Fu Dai's heart began to fade.
Xu Xing frowned, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief, for fear that he was seeing dazzling eyes.
Fu Dai returned to his seat, and Cody at the back table immediately patted his back shoulder and said happily, "Friend, you are finally willing to come to class! Hey, I'm going, why do I feel like you've become handsome after not seeing you for a few days? ?"
Kedi couldn't hide his happiness. In contrast, Lu Che and Zou Mang were more reserved and just said hello to Fu Dai: "Come on."
Fu Dai raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Ah."
Fu Dai fell asleep on the table as soon as he arrived. The English teacher just glanced over here and didn't say anything. When the get out of class bell rang, Fu Dai got up and walked out of the classroom, saying that he had something to go to the head teacher. Ke Di agreed that Fu Dai was going to get the leave slip, so he didn't ask.
Fu Dai went to this trip and didn't come back for two classes in a row.
Tang Mian sat on Xiong Huan's seat, glanced back at Fu Dai's table, leaned close to Xiong Huan's ear, and asked in a low voice, "Fu Dai is rarely back to class, aren't you going to take care of him?"
Xiong Huan shook his head, his eyes fell calmly on the black and white test paper, but his soul was long gone. She thought, just wait for Fu Dai to come to her.
Xiong Huan was accustomed to being passive and accustomed to accepting Fu Dai's love in its entirety, so that she subconsciously tacitly agreed that accepting Fu Dai's love was equivalent to responding to him.
During the fourth class break, Xu Xing went to the office with the report and saw Fu Dai sitting next to the head teacher's desk, just getting up to leave.
Xu Xing handed the report to the head teacher, walked behind Fu Dai, and couldn't help asking, "Fu Dai... Are you alright?"
Fu Dai turned around and twitched the corners of his mouth: "It's okay."
Xu Xing's eyes fell on the red line on his chest that was red to black.
How could it be okay.
Xu Xing walked up to him and walked side by side with him, and said, "Are you... going to drop out of school?"
Seeing Fu Dai's surprised expression, Xu Xing said, "I happened to hear the English teacher asking the head teacher."
Fu Dai snorted and pretended to be relaxed: "I'm going abroad, but I asked the head teacher to keep it a secret for me temporarily."
Xu Xing frowned.
Fu Dai: "My dad said it's more important for me to come back and pack my things, and take the time to make up for other courses."
Immigration, this decision was too sudden for Fu Dai, but immigration had long been part of Dad Fu's plan, and it was not a sudden decision. Dad Fu didn't leave any room for speech, he just informed Fu Dai that Fu Dai's opinion was not important, he only wanted Fu Dai to implement it.
However, "Just pack your things, you don't have to go to school", Dad Fu's words were an understatement, but Fu Dai's heart was bleeding. It doesn't matter if you don't want anything in school, but there are still his friends there, and there is a girl he has liked for a whole year, how can he "casually" clean up these feelings
Xu Xing looked at him and hesitated.
The red line growing from Fu Dai's heart can no longer be seen as dark red. Fu Dai's inner feelings are obviously not as casual as his surface looks.
The bell for the class rang at this moment, and the long "ding bell--" rang through the corridor, interrupting the conversation.
Xu Xing finally did not ask the exit.
You are going abroad, what about Xiong Huan
In fact, even if you don't ask, you know that the sprouting of spring in your youth is no match for family decision-making.
The two returned to the classroom one after the other.
Fu Dai looked at the back of the girl in front of him with a ponytail, and his heart was bitter. He made full preparations at home, but when he saw Xiong Huan when he returned to school, he panicked. He didn't know how to face her.
noon.
Fu Dai invited guests out to eat, and announced the news that he was going abroad with a few good friends in person at the dinner table. Kedi, Zou Mang and Lu Che are his best friends and brothers in high school. Xu Xing was also present, but he was pulled by Lu Che.
There was a moment of silence at the dinner table.
Cody was the first to exclaim: "Damn, so this is a casual meal? It's not a five-star hotel dinner, but you actually brought us to a small restaurant near the school!"
Fu Dai hummed: "This place is full of good memories of our three years in high school."
As soon as Fu Dai said these words, the others did not answer.
No three years.
The memories of the last year were left without Fu Dai's participation.
Cody complained again: "Dangtang is a rich second generation, how can our memories be so cheap! You have to reflect on yourself."
Cody's complaint softened the sadness of parting.
Lu Che: "Keep in touch."
Zou Mang: "When are you leaving?"
Fu Dai: "I'm going to leave after school in the afternoon. I'll go home tonight and go to City A tomorrow morning."
Cody: "Did you tell Xiong Huan about this?"
"… "
The atmosphere suddenly froze sharply.
Fu Dai laughed a little out of strength, rubbed his cheeks with both hands, and said in a muffled voice, "The thing I regret the most now is why I went to provoke her before."
He originally made the decision to chase Xiong Huan for the rest of his life, but in the end he missed the appointment.
Xu Xing asked inexplicably, "Is it okay to develop a long-distance relationship temporarily?"
Fu Dai shook his head, but did not give a definite answer.
Cody joked: "You can pretend to be cheating. She'll forget about you soon."
Fu Dai couldn't make jokes about Xiong Huan, and his face sank instantly: "Get out! I just don't want to affect her, let alone hurt her."
Xu Xing also disliked Kedi in his heart: this person is really heartless, although I heard that he has a girlfriend, but it is definitely not true love, so there is no red line.
After a few people had lunch, they were not in a hurry to leave. They chatted about some things at the dinner table, and felt that time flew by. Just as they were sighing, time hurriedly slipped away.
When Xu Xing and the others rushed back to school, the preparation bell rang for a while, and the teacher came in.
Fu Dai was sitting in his seat in a daze. The biology teacher on the podium was talking about cell division again. Fu Dai grabbed his hair and suddenly turned his head to look at Lu Che.
"Archer."
"Um?"
Lu Che held his face and looked at him.
Fu Dai: "Let me win a game of Gobang."
Lu Che: "..."
Fu Dai played several more games of backgammon with Lu Che, and the loose-leaf paper turned page after page, but he still couldn't beat Lu Che in a single game.
And every time Lu Che won the next game, he would say to him, "The next game will let you win."
When the bell rang after class, Fu Dai dropped his pen: "Forget it, forget it, stop playing."
Lu Che spun around with the pen between his hands, and said casually, "Then come back next time and play again."
Come back next time to play.
The next round lets you win.
Fu Dai suddenly understood what Lu Che meant, and the depressed mood of repeated defeats was swept away. Neither Fu Dai nor Lu Che would talk about brotherhood and affection, he scratched his head and changed the subject: "But then again, can you show me who you like now? "
Lu Che joked with them in the restaurant last time. Although Xu Xing, as the only person in the audience who had seen Lu Che's "mobile phone photos", said that Lu Che was playing with them and there were no photos at all, but Fu Dai Always thinking about this.
Lu Che snorted and said, "I'll send you a photo when I catch him."
Fu Dai was even more surprised when he heard it: "You haven't caught anyone yet?"
Lu Che said disapprovingly, "Aren't you the same?"
Fu Dai: "..."
Fu Dai didn't answer any more.
In the last three classes left, Fu Dai and Kedi, two activists, have been quiet all afternoon. Fu Dai used to count down to the get out of class bell on his watch. If the countdown to zero happened to sound in sync with the get out of class bell, Fu Dai would be quite proud, but now, he can't wait to never end get out of class.
The wall clock in the upper right corner of the blackboard is ticking.
17:50
The school bell rings on time.
Xiong Huan went to the cafeteria to eat with her tablemate as usual. She tidied up the table briefly, took out the meal card and a small packet of tissues from her schoolbag, and when she got up, out of the corner of her eyes, she glanced at the seat in the back row uncontrollably—Fu Dai Still sitting on the seat.
Xiong Huan lowered his eyes, walked out of his seat, and approached Fu Dai step by step along the aisle. Suddenly, the road under his feet was blocked by a figure. Xiong Huan felt joy in her heart, because the person standing in front of her was Fu Dai.
"you… "
Xiong Huan raised his head to look at Fu Dai's face, and the next second he was hugged tightly into a warm and firm embrace.
The surrounding classmates were shocked by the sudden hug. In addition to being shocked, several boys took the lead in shouting and coaxing, while the girls secretly laughed and whispered. The students who were rushing to the cafeteria slowed down and stopped to watch the hug.
Xiong Huan's white cheeks were flushed with shame, she struggled to push Fu Dai away, but Fu Dai's strength was too great, her struggle was more like coquettish and arrogant.
Xiong Huan became anxious and said angrily, "Let go of me... Let go of me! Fu Dai! If you don't let go, I will ignore you in the future!"
The last sentence was threatening, and Xiong Huan clearly felt that Fu Dai's body froze, but even so, he did not let go.
There was anger in Xiong Huan's eyes, the water was shining, and he was ashamed and annoyed.
Fu Dai hugged her for a while, rubbing her cheeks against her ponytail. He sniffed the fragrance on her body greedily. This hug was the closest distance between Fu Dai and Xiong Huan for nearly a year.
Fu Dai's thin lips rubbed against Xiong Huan's ear, touching the hot pinna of the auricle. Fu Dai said softly to her, "It's over, you will ignore me in the future."
For a moment.
Fu Dai added: "However, this is fine..."
Xiong Huan didn't understand what Fu Dai meant, and his arms that were tightly wrapped around her suddenly loosened. After Fu Dai let go of her, he turned around and left.
Xiong Huan froze in place.
·
The classmates who stopped and watched had not left. Xu Xing, the only person in the audience who frowned and watched Fu Dai and Xiong Huan hug each other, also chased Fu Dai out.
Just now, Fu Dai was silent for a long time, and when he stood up and stopped in front of Xiong Huan, the red line in his heart trembled uncomfortably as if he had been severely stimulated. But after Fu Dai let go of Xiong Huan, the red thread that was no longer bright red seemed to bind his heart - just like Liu Peilian's day, the red thread made her breathless.
Xu Xing caught up with Fu Dai before he ran very far. Fu Dai was obviously struggling to even walk. Xu Xing could clearly see that this was because the red line on his body was dragging him behind, and the red line that usually hung on the ground, at this time. But it hangs in the air, as if beckoning to Xu Xing - to be precise, the way of beckoning by twisting hard would be more appropriate to interpret it as a call for help.
"Fu Dai..."
Fu Dai stopped and controlled his emotions before turning around.
Xu Xing saw Fu Dai's next second, and his heart ached immediately. Xu Xing vaguely saw a red glowing outline representing the heart emerging from Fu Dai's chest. At this time, the black red thread tied the heart with five flowers, and the thin thread was embedded in the heart, cutting it alive.
There was still a faint red light on the red line extending outside the heart, and it tumbled to Xu Xing for help, like a drowning man fluttering on the water.
And Fu Dai thought that he had properly put away the emotions that were on the verge of collapse, but he didn't know how pitiful the expression on his face was now that he was about to cry.
Xu Xing bit his lip, stretched out his hand to hold the twisting red thread, and saw that the red thread automatically wrapped around Xu Xing's wrist, pulling the red thread tied to his heart by force.
Xu Xing was startled, and when he wanted to shrink his hand, the red thread wrapped around his hand also pulled back, and with just this pull, the frantically twisted red thread became quiet.
The red thread that bound Fu Dai's heart gradually returned to its bright red color, and the red thread formed a heart shape.
However, next -
The red heart shape is more like a glass vessel with a gap at the bottom. As the water level drops, the red heart-shaped red line flows continuously.
until the red wire breaks from him.
Xu Xing looked shocked, and saw Fu Dai crying uncontrollably in front of him.
Tears gurgled down his face.
Fu Daihou touched his cheek after realizing it, and his expression was blank: "Hey, why do I suddenly cry..."
The author has something to say: In chapter 1.30, when Lu Che was sitting next to him, Cody hummed "You love me too, why can't you love me", and said to Fu Dai, "Friend, is this song sung? Did you hear your heart?"
2. This is what it looks like to untie the red line _(:з)∠)_
3. In the next chapter, Xu pretending to sleep is still sweet, don't be afraid _(:з)∠)_
