Hearing his voice and hearing what he said clearly, the knot entangled in Qiao Shao's spirit finally showed signs of loosening.
Since that year, Qiao Shao, who has returned home, has hardly cried while awake.
Now he knows where he is, he knows it's on the playground, there are a lot of classmates in front of him, he knows it's not a place to cry.
but…
He grabbed He Shen's clothes hard and cried so hard.
He Shen didn't say anything else, just patted his back lightly and held him in his arms.
The place where Qiao Shao stayed was on the edge of the court, there was no one behind him, and He Shen blocked all the view from the court, so no one knew that Qiao Shao was crying.
Song Yixu ran over and asked, "What's wrong..."
"It's okay," He Shen said without turning his head back, "Qiao Shao exercised too much and was a little dizzy."
Song Yixu said, "Send him to the infirmary!"
He Shen said, "Let him slow down first, and I'll take him back to the dormitory to rest in a while."
Song Yixu said quickly, "Then I'll go talk to Lao Tang."
He Shen: "Yeah."
Song Yixu went back to the stadium and talked to everyone. Although the big guy was nervous, he didn't come over.
He Shen's attitude was obvious, and he didn't want others to come over.
And it's about to go to self-study. The big guy sees that Qiao Shao has the same table to take care of, so he doesn't waste time anymore. After cleaning up, he has to go back to the classroom.
After a melodious bell, the noisy playground immediately quieted down.
The summer days are very long, and the evening sky is still bright. Only the gradually falling sun slants the teaching building and casts longer shadows.
The two teenagers who embraced each other were half bathed in sunlight, while one side had already sunk into the shadows.
Darkness is approaching, but summer nights are short.
Qiao Shao cried for a while, and the pain and bitterness in his heart also flowed out with the tears, instead of squeezing tightly into his chest, blocking the air.
This will calm down, and he will realize how rude he is.
really...
Qiao Shao couldn't even lift his head up.
He Shen felt the relief of his spirit and asked, "Is it better?"
Qiao Shao looked at the huge water stains on his shirt and wanted to die.
He Shen let go of him, and looked at him while leaning on his shoulder.
Qiao Shao's face turned red, he pushed him away and said, "I..."
What a shame!
And it's still embarrassing in front of the lovelorn object!
Is there anyone worse than him!
He Shen didn't make fun of him, his voice was gentle and serious: "It will be more comfortable to cry, and it will be very sad for anyone if that happens."
Qiao Shao's heart was stagnant, and his eyes were red again.
He Shen flicked lightly under his eyes and said, "Me too. When my mother died, I lost most of my life."
Qiao Shao was stunned and looked up at him.
He Shen sat down on the steps beside him, propped his arms back, and said in a calm tone, "I was twelve years old at that time, and I was preparing for the college entrance examination."
Any other person saying this would be like a weird joke.
It can be said by He Shen, and it seems to be a matter of course.
It is normal for He Shen to take the college entrance examination at the age of twelve.
Instead of being one year older than their peers, but still in the first year of high school, as they are now.
Qiao Shao's heart twitched, not knowing how to comfort him.
He Shen seemed to be talking to himself: "Everyone expects me to be the top student in the college entrance examination. Only she told me, don't go to college, don't force yourself, do what you should do at your age, don't force yourself like that."
Qiao Shao's vision blurred again, he tried to keep his voice steady: "She is for your own good."
"Well." He Shen replied softly.
But even she doesn't want him anymore.
Xie Shen was an excellent and scary child from childhood to adulthood.
Father Xie Chengyu's absurdity made his grandfather put all his expectations on him.
And he did show his ability far beyond ordinary people. He only took one year of elementary school, and only three years of junior high and high school courses. He went abroad for two years. After returning, his grandfather insisted that he participate in the domestic college entrance examination.
Xie Shen never refused all arrangements at home, because his grandfather told him: only if he is good enough can he protect his mother.
He wanted to protect her and wanted her to smile happily, like he had seen when he was very young.
But…
She committed suicide.
She fell in a pool of blood and told him, "I'm sorry, but mom can't take you away."
In fact, she took him away.
The moment she died, Xie Shen also died.
He Shen returned to his senses, and saw the child's face that he wanted to cry or not.
He softened his heart, rubbed his hair and said, "It's alright."
Qiao Shao took his hand and said, "She loves you."
"Well." He Shen smiled reluctantly. He said, "What about you, your mother..."
Qiao Shao's lips trembled, but he didn't lose consciousness like before.
He lowered his eyelashes and said softly, "She also loves me very much."
He Shen thought that he was still not able to face the death of his mother, so he didn't rush to ask, and comforted: "It's okay, our life is not just about our parents."
Qiao Shao was taken aback.
He Shen said slowly: "As long as you keep going, you will meet many good people."
Like you.
The stinging pain in Qiao Shao's heart, which was mixed with regret and remorse, weakened a bit, and he said, "For example, you."
This time, He Shen was stunned.
Qiao Shao smiled and repeated, "For example, I met He Shenhen."
"Well," He Shen followed him with a smile, and said, "For example, I met Qiao Gugiao."
Qiao Shao's smile stopped in a second, annoyed: "Don't call me that again!"
He Shen also returned to normal, teasing him: "Aren't you good?"
Qiao Shao was angry: "I'm not a child!"
He Shen: "But you are indeed very young."
Qiao Shao: "I'm a month younger than you!" I'm so angry, why does this guy have a birthday on the 1st of January, so that his birthday on the 2nd of February is not big enough!
He Shen compared his height with Qiao Shao and said, "But I'm like an adult, you're like a junior high school student."
Qiao Shao: "..."
Like a fart, this guy is definitely not the good guy he met!
When the two of them went back to study at night, they were no different than usual.
But they both felt closer to each other.
They've all lost loved ones, they've all experienced the same pain, and they all know each other better than anyone else.
When sleeping at night, Qiao Shao was melancholy for a long time.
He thought about He Shen, and his heart was sour and sweet.
It's sour because He Shen's mouth is bad, he's not conscious, and he doesn't have to be responsible for straight men's teasing!
Oh, there is one more sour point today: he is also treated as a child.
It turned out that He Shen had always treated him as a child!
Even if the object of unrequited love is a man, he treats him like a child!
He is so miserable.
Joe miserably secretly lost his love again.
Sour is sour, sweet is really sweet.
Thinking about what happened this afternoon, Qiao Shao felt like he had spilled a jar of honey in his heart, which was so unbearable.
He heard Song Yixu say that He Shen suffered a heavy ball and his forehead was red because he was uncomfortable seeing him from a distance.
Song Yixu also said, "We didn't even see it, but Brother Shen saw it alone!"
Song Yixu added, "Thanks to Brother Shen's good eyesight, what if you fainted from heatstroke and went to the hospital, what would you do with the final exam!"
The curvature of the corners of Qiao Shao's mouth could not be suppressed, just like the pounding heart in his chest.
He thought about what to talk to He Shen after the final exam.
As long as he gets a similar grade in the test, he will tell He Shen—
He likes him.
It doesn't matter if He Shen refuses.
Anyway, he's been in love with himself several times.
Don't be afraid of losing the real gun again!
The author has something to say: Cough…
Qiao classmate, I am afraid you will never think about falling out of love in your life [dog head]
