As get out of class approached, Pei Ran closed the textbook, took out the mask from his pocket and put it on.
"Are you leaving early again?" the roommate asked him.
Pei Ran nodded.
Roommate: "You left a few days early. If you didn't know, you thought someone was blocking you after school..."
Pei Ran smiled and didn't speak. When the teacher turned around, he took the book and left through the back door.
Pei Ran didn't relax until he walked out of the teaching building for a distance.
He exhaled lightly, took out his phone and glanced at it, and sure enough, there were several messages from Luo Qingshan.
Pei Ran quickly flipped through their chat records in the past few days, and had the illusion of returning to high school in a trance.
[Luo Qingshan: Pei Ran, shall we have lunch together?]
[Pei Ran: No, I ordered takeout.]
[Luo Qingshan: OK, which one do you order? I ordered the same as you.]
[Luo Qingshan: [Video call, not connected]]
[Luo Qingshan: Baby, I miss you.]
[Luo Qingshan: I haven't been able to listen to the class well all day.]
[Luo Qingshan: I deleted Su Nian, you can check it at any time.]
[Luo Qingshan: Have dinner together? I'm going to the classroom to find you.]
In high school, Luo Qingshan also chased Pei Ran like this. Take the initiative to ask the teacher to change to Pei Ran's side, change the dormitory to Pei Ran's top bunk, even stick to Pei Ran for lunch and dinner... and so on, no matter how you say it, you can't drive away.
Pei Ran closed the dialog box and canceled the message bar set by Luo Qingshan on his mobile phone.
In the evening, when Luo Qingshan opened the dormitory door, Yan Zhun was watching the replay of the PUBG International.
He only wore one earphone, and his legs were spread apart, looking a little absent-minded. The sound of the door opening did not affect him at all.
With a snap, Luo Qingshan put a dozen beers on his table and asked him, "Drink together?"
The beer can was soggy and looked like it had just been taken out of the fridge. Yan Zhun looked at the soaked tabletop, frowned slightly, and then shook his head: "Don't drink."
So Luo Qingshan could only get drunk alone.
Halfway through the drink, he picked up his mobile phone and subconsciously wanted to call someone to accompany him. After dialing out, he realized something was wrong and hung up quickly.
At two o'clock in the middle of the night, I was woken up by my roommate.
He slowly opened his eyes, his dark eyes full of sleepiness and irritability.
Luo Qingshan: "Pei Ran, you are so cruel..."
Be serious about it.
The lights in the bedroom had already been turned off, and Luo Qingshan's mobile phone screen had become the only light source.
Luo Qingshan's tone was very depressed: "Three years... three years together, you have to tolerate my mistakes, Pei Ran."
Luo Qingshan muttered to himself for a few minutes, Yan Zhun was really tired of listening, and just as he took out the earplugs from under the pillow and was about to put them on, he heard a rustling sound.
- "Luo Qingshan, it's very late now."
Luo Qingshan turned on the speakerphone.
Pei Ran's voice was hoarse and exhausted: "What's the matter, can we talk about it tomorrow?"
"You will ignore me tomorrow." Luo Qingshan said.
Pei Ran rubbed his hair, and it took him a long time to finally wake up.
Luo Qingshan's speech was intermittent, and he was still a little stumped. He should have been drinking again.
Feeling dry and hoarse, Pei Ran took a sip of water before continuing, "Luo Qingshan, I broke up with you... It's not all about this."
There was silence on the phone, no reply.
Pei Ran: "We agreed before, give it a try."
At that time, Luo Qingshan was lying on the hospital bed, his hands and arms were covered with bandages. Both of them were only seventeen or eighteen years old, and their eyes were not calm.
Luo Qingshan grimaced in pain, and laughed and coaxed him, teased him, and asked him if he was moved or not, if he wanted to show his affection.
Pei Ran was silent for a long time, and then said, let's try, Luo Qingshan.
It took Pei Ran three years to understand that the long-term relationship does not happen to everyone.
At least, his current feelings for Luo Qingshan are not so great that they can accommodate everything.
Luo Qingshan still didn't speak, Pei Ran lowered his eyebrows: "Sorry..."
"He's asleep," came a low voice from the other side.
Pei Ran was startled: "Ah."
Yan Zhuan threw the empty wine can on the table into the trash: "He drank some wine and fell asleep now, I am Yan Zhun."
Pei Ran: "..."
It means that what he said just now, and what Luo Qingshan said to him, were all strictly heard
An inexplicable feeling of embarrassment spread upward from the soles of his feet. Pei Ran swallowed and said after a long time, "Is it so noisy that you are sleeping?"
"No." Yan Zhen didn't change his face, "I stayed up all night."
Pei Ran gave a soft "Oh".
There was a brief silence in the air.
"Go to sleep." Yan Zhun said, "Next time you go to bed, remember to turn on the mute."
Pei Ran: "...Okay."
A second before Pei Ran left the phone, Yan Zhun hurriedly said, "Good night."
After hanging up the WeChat call, Yan Zhun lowered his eyes and inadvertently saw Luo Qingshan's chat list.
The first is Pei Ran, and the second is Su Nian.
[Su Nian: Did you call me? Is it convenient for you, I'll call you back...]
No longer visible.
Yan Zhun remembered Luo Qingshan's broken thoughts just now, and there was a sentence "I have blocked him, what do you want from me".
At this time, Luo Qingshan's face on the table suddenly turned over, and he shouted vaguely: "Baby..."
Yan Zhun grabbed a Luo Qingshan coat and put it on him: "Don't scream."
Luo Qingshan closed his eyes and muttered subconsciously, "Huh?"
"You two broke up." Yan Zhuan was very patient and reminded him, "He's not your baby anymore."
Pei Ran sat on the bed and stared at the phone screen.
Did he hang up too quickly? Strictly doesn't seem to have finished speaking yet.
After such a commotion, Pei Ran had long lost sleep. Fortunately, his roommates were living outside these days, and he was the only one in the dormitory, otherwise he would have to go to the balcony to answer the phone.
He sat in front of the computer, looked at the semi-finished draft in front of him, and hesitated whether to finish it.
In the end, laziness won, and Pei Ran climbed back to the bed with the phone.
Pei Ran played with his mobile phone on his side, swiped it, and created a circle of friends from a minute ago.
[Strictly: Pick up and play, any game will be online at any time.]
Pei Ran clicked into the strict circle of friends, but found that the content was deleted in seconds.
To be precise, it was Yan Zun who re-posted—
[Strictly: Pick up and accompany you to play, you can play any game, you can go online at any time, you can coax people, you can do anything, and you can chat privately with the boss if you need it. I'm running out of money to eat [web link]]
Pei Ran spent ten minutes browsing today's circle of friends, and finally couldn't help but click on the web link.
It is a very formal accompaniment website. The strict account is like a new account. The number of orders received is 0. Twenty yuan an hour is the lowest price on the website.
Pei Ran read it several times, and finally placed a ten-hour order. After paying the money, he closed the page directly.
He was about to go to sleep on mute when a WeChat message popped up.
[Strict: Boss.]
[Yan Zhun: When to play?]
Pei Ran opened his eyes wide and reflected for several seconds before typing.
[Pei Ran: What are you talking about]
[Yan Zhun: You placed my playlist for ten hours.]
[Pei Ran: How do you know it's me?]
[Strictly: The above is your WeChat avatar.]
Pei Ran covered his eyes, and he forgot about it.
So the question is, if you confess that you are just to support a strict meal, is it disrespectful to others
[Yan Zhun:?]
[Pei Ran: Ah, it's very late today, so I won't play for now.]
[Yan Zhun: Then tomorrow?]
[Pei Ran: These few days... I have a part-time job to work on.]
[Yan Zhun: Next week, the school has seven days off, so let's play with you then.]
[Strictly: I owe it uncomfortable.]
That's all there is to say.
[Peiran: Okay.]
[Pei Ran: I just hung up the phone too quickly, I didn't hear what you said at the end, sorry.]
[Yan Zhun: It's alright, I didn't say anything.]
[Pei Ran: Good. By the way, can I trouble you to pour a glass of water and put it next to Luo Qingshan?]
[Yan Zhun: You are my boss now.]
[Pei Ran: ?]
[Yan Zhun: You can just let me open his mouth and pour water into it.]
[Pei Ran:…]
