After laughing, Kou Chen put down the phone.
He didn't know what to say next, and he had nothing to do with Huo Ran.
But obviously there was nothing to say, but he didn't dare to hold the phone all the time, always afraid that his fingers would uncontrollably say something he wasn't ready for.
Just let it go.
But Huo Ran probably couldn't understand his feelings. The phone rang a few seconds after being thrown on the table.
Kou Chen picked it up and saw that it was a message from Huo Ran.
-
He wanted to say a full stop, but he was afraid of being scolded by Huo Ran, so he snapped his fingers: "Handsome!"
Shuaishuai ran to him and sat down, paws on his lap.
Kou Chen opened the video and said to Shuaishuai, "Come on, Shuaishuai, say hello to brother Ranran."
Shuai Shuai called out to the camera twice.
"Good job," Kou Chen patted its head, "and then sing a song for brother Ranran."
Handsome looked at him.
"Sing! Hurry up!" Kou Chen flicked its ear.
Handsome looks indifferent.
"Stupid dog," Kou Chen clicked his tongue, raised his head, "Ouch—"
Shuaishuai immediately raised his head and screamed, oooo-ooh-ooh-
Kou Xiao's voice came from downstairs: "Shut up! You two are crazy! When the moon is full, you two will be numbered!"
"Okay, let's play." Kou Chen closed the video and rubbed Shuaishuai's head.
Shuaishuai jumped back on the sofa to watch TV, and he sent the video to Huo Ran.
- Shuaishuai is doing a show for you
- so cute
without you
Kou Chen clicked his tongue, deleted the sentence, and sent it with a picture of a dog's head.
In order to prevent himself from continuing to talk and looking for something to make everyone feel awkward, he followed up with another post.
-sleep, sleepy
-Good night
-Good night
Kou Chen didn't know whether Huo Ran slept or not, but he certainly couldn't sleep himself.
He has always slept late. After his father brought him back to his side, he developed a habit. Only when he went back to the bedroom at night and closed the door, his world started, playing games, looking around, even if it was just a daze. , also enjoyed it.
Generally, he won't be sleepy after 12 o'clock.
But he was sleepy earlier tonight, probably because he was too excited during the day.
It may also be that there is nothing to play. The TV is talking about something to tell him that he is sleepy, and Shuaishuai has already gone to bed and fell asleep on his quilt, and occasionally kicks his legs twice.
At about 12 o'clock, he started yawning. Before he was completely sleepy, he quickly went into the bathroom to wash and clean up. When he opened Shuai Shuai and went to bed, his eyes were already a little numb.
But just like this, he wouldn't fall asleep easily, so he clicked on the circle of friends to have a look.
The group of seven photos swiped on the screen, with photos of other students eating, drinking and having fun in the middle.
Another one is from Lin Wuyu.
Go to bed early today.
This person basically does not post on Moments, or only posts in groups. This is the first time Kou Chen has seen his Moments.
The third year of high school is really miserable, and 12 o'clock is considered an early bed.
Kou Chen was suddenly a little depressed when he saw this.
I just stopped sending a message to Lin Wuyu, now they are going to sleep!
…
But why did you send a message to Lin Wuyu, what did you say!
Kou Chen frowned.
After holding it for a long time, I finally plugged the phone into the charger, threw it aside, and closed my eyes.
Early on Monday morning, all the teachers and students in the school were a little lethargic, and the only thing that was happy was the radio.
The school radio station is a bunch of two-dimensional elements. The content they usually broadcast is cool and fashionable, but on Monday mornings, they will always play joyous and energetic songs, which make people feel like they are the sun in the early morning.
But this Monday was a little different. As soon as he entered the school, Huo Ran felt that the atmosphere was not right. After pushing Kou Chen's bicycle into the dormitory and putting it down, he received a call from Jiang Lei.
"Are you here yet!" Jiang Lei shouted.
"Just arrived, what happened?" Huo Ran asked.
"Come over to the laboratory building!" Jiang Lei said, "We are all here! There is a sister who is going to jump off the building in the third year of high school!"
"What?" Huo Ran was stunned, and ran to the laboratory building.
"The police are here too," Jiang Lei said. "Damn, why can't this sister think so much! It seems that the pressure of the college entrance examination is too high, and the college entrance examination is still two months away..."
Probably only a scumbag would think that the college entrance examination in two months is very far away.
When Huo Ran ran over there, he found that everyone around him was running.
"Here!" Kou Chen and the group of seven were standing on the edge of the rockery pool, waving at him.
Huo Ran ran over and found a few swaying figures on the roof of the experimental building. A short-haired girl was standing outside the roof railing, holding the railing with her hands and leaning out.
This building was just completed the year he entered the school. It is the tallest building in the school and has the best facilities in the city. He has always liked going to the experimental building to take classes.
There is no air cushion under the roof. It is said that if this height falls, the air cushion is useless.
"Who is it? Do we know each other?" Huo Ran asked.
"I don't know, from the science class," Kou Chen said, "I don't know anyway... This is too hard to think about..."
"Do you really want to dance? Isn't it to scare the family?" Wei Chaoren said, "Maybe the family is too tight?"
"Even if it's to scare the family," Xu Chuan said, "it means that the pressure is too great to use this trick..."
The teacher and the police on the rooftop were trying to persuade her, but the girl showed no expression. She just looked down at the person below and leaned her body. In this posture, as long as her hand slipped a little, she would definitely fall down.
Huo Ran hadn't felt the pressure of the college entrance examination. To be precise, they probably didn't think about the college entrance examination. Even Xu Zhifan, the best scorer among them, basically didn't mention the college entrance examination.
But they are key high schools after all, and they are a minority. Most of them have already set goals from junior high school. Every step closer to the college entrance examination, the pressure will increase.
The pressure from the parents, the pressure from the school, and the pressure from myself.
Last year, there were students who dropped out of school in the third year of high school. The pressure was too great. They said that they would repeat the next year, but this year, I didn’t see them coming back to repeat their studies. I don’t know if they didn’t recover or gave up.
Another high school in the city has a high enrollment rate with the high school attached to it. I have heard of people who lost all their hair and became bald within a week, and did not grow back until the end of the college entrance examination. Fortunately, they passed the test well. At school, after receiving the notice, the hair finally broke out, and the buddy also went back to the school and went around to prove that he was not bald.
Several teachers ran over with a group of girls and stood downstairs. A teacher was on the phone, probably communicating with the person who persuaded him on the rooftop.
After discussing it with a few girls, one girl raised her head and shouted, "Zhenzhen—it's me! Several people in our dormitory are here—did you see us?"
Several girls waved their hands vigorously together and shouted together, "Zhenzhen!"
"What are you doing, Jane!" the girl who took the lead then shouted, "Do you want to leave us and run away! The graduation trip was promised! We agreed to take pictures together! We agreed to buy a special one after the test. The showy skirt goes to the bar! You promised to spend a summer vacation! Don't you care!"
"Also—" the other girl also shouted, "It's said that you will confess after the test! Don't you confess! Do you want him to never know that you like him—did you say it? He'll never know if you don't tell me! We won't tell you! You have to tell it yourself!"
Maybe the last sentence touched the girl named Zhenzhen above, she moved, like crying.
"Keep shouting," a teacher nodded. "Don't stop, she's loose!"
"Have you forgotten what you said!" Another girl hurriedly took over the conversation, crying anxiously, "It takes a reckless confession to be truly youthful!"
"Damn it," Jiang Lei sniffed, "why is it a little touching to say such chicken soup, is my tears a little low today?"
"I'm so tired, I'm scared..." Zhenzhen cried and shouted, but she couldn't hear the words behind.
Huo Ran saw the policeman behind him slowly approach, and walked behind her when she bowed her head and cried.
He suddenly became nervous.
Kou Chen was probably nervous, too, so he wrapped his arms around his shoulder from behind and put it next to his ear: "Damn it, my palms are sweating."
"Me too." Huo Ran grabbed Kou Chen's hand.
Kou Chen also responded immediately, grabbing his hand tightly.
Just as the girls below continued to shout, a policeman stepped behind Zhenzhen and grabbed her wrist.
The students below let out a burst of exclamations.
Another policeman jumped over and hugged her, and the two policemen worked together to pull her back from outside the railing.
After a few seconds of silence, the people around cheered and clapped.
They didn't see the follow-up, and the teachers drove everyone from the scene away.
The group of seven sighed all the way to the classroom.
"If I can't think about it one day and do such a thing," Wei Chaoren told them, "you can persuade me according to this routine."
"What routine?" Xu Zhifan asked.
"He hasn't confessed yet," Kou Chen said. "Superman! That girl from No. 11 Middle School that you like! You haven't told her yet! Have you?"
"Yes." Wei Chaoren nodded, "I think I'm on the same path as that Zhenzhen just now. Thinking of this, I'm a little hesitant. I haven't confessed, and it's a bit of a loss to die. I haven't talked about love yet. Woolen cloth… "
"Don't say it that far," Xu Chuan said, "you have refused and no one has ever refused."
"That's right! You say it's thanks to you, don't talk about falling in love, no one has ever rejected me," Wei Chaoren snorted, "I have to find someone to reject me... No, I have to confess..."
"Hurry up," Hu Yi said. "It looks good now. Fate doesn't necessarily disappear one day. Fate is all in the moment. Right now, it's gone if it's too late."
"I'm fucking a radish!" Jiang Lei looked at him, "Are you going to soar? You can shock me as soon as you speak recently."
"He always likes to think about things," Xu Zhifan said. "It's just that he talks a lot recently."
When walking downstairs of the classroom, Huo Ran suddenly stood down: "I haven't had breakfast yet..."
"Kou Chen brought it for you." Xu Zhifan said as he walked upstairs.
"Huh?" Huo Ran was stunned for a while, then turned to look at Kou Chen, only now did he notice that Kou Chen was carrying a plastic bag in his hand.
"I asked you to come here earlier. Yesterday, I told you to eat together," Kou Chen clicked his tongue and took a lunch box out of his bag, "We were already in the cafeteria when the accident happened, and I was rushing. I'm going to see it, and I have to pack it for you at the same time..."
"Thank you." Huo Ran took the lunch box, which contained several neatly sized small shumai and a pair of chicken wings.
He suddenly had some indescribable feeling, whether it was moved, satisfied, or something else.
Kou Chen took the lunch box from his hand again.
Huo Ran glanced at him, and he frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Oh, don't say thank you," Huo Ran nodded, "this is what you should do."
Kou Chen smiled, raised his eyebrows, and put the lunch box back in his hand.
Xu Zhifan's position has been completely occupied by Kou Chen. They change seats every week, from back to front, from left to right. No matter where they change, Kou Chen is next to them.
The group of seven sometimes staggered, and there would be a week where they couldn't get together, but Kou Chen was always by his side.
Huo Ran lay on the table with his forehead against the edge of the table, put the lunch box on his lap, and happily ate siumai one by one.
This shaomai is cornmeal, the yellow is beautiful and the taste is not bad...
"You're stuck with me," Huo Ran suddenly remembered, turned his face and whispered, "How did you buy breakfast?"
"Can I still starve to death if I don't get stuck?" Kou Chen said, putting his wrist in front of him and shaking the THXD bracelet on his wrist, "There are still five people, who can't help me buy breakfast! Do you have a little bit of it? Do you underestimate the gang of Action Licking Sea?"
Huo Ran smiled, didn't speak, and continued to eat shaomai.
It's not that he underestimates these people, he should be less sober in his mind.
If he eats more walnuts in the future, just a box of breakfast will make him confused like this.
Lao Yuan didn't come to check on the early self-study, and no one in the class started self-study early, and they were all talking about what happened just now.
Huo Ran swiped a few words into his ears from time to time as he ate.
Everyone's focus was quite the same. First, they felt that the pressure of high school was too much, and then they turned to the top of not being able to die without confessing. Wu Xiaochen also sighed: "I really wanted to persuade her, but I was afraid that it would not be suitable, you Look at me, in the computer, on the bookshelf, those shady things haven't been cleaned up, I don't think I don't want to die, I don't dare to die casually, I'm innocent forever..."
This made the whole class laugh.
Huo Ran also smiled.
However, what kept spinning in his mind was what the girls who shouted were shouting.
He didn't want to die, he didn't have any pressure, and there shouldn't be any pressure to make him want to die in the future, but he somehow felt anxious.
It always feels too late.
Not anymore.
It's going to be late.
Fate is in front of you, in the moment, if it's too late, it's gone.
He couldn't help looking up at Hu Yi.
This shredded goods, as if suddenly enlightened, actually expressed such emotion.
The bell rang for the end of the morning self-study get out of class, and the chatter in the classroom suddenly became louder.
Huo Ran stood up.
"Where to?" Kou Chen also stood up.
"Not going anywhere." Huo Ran pushed him back to his seat and walked out of the classroom alone.
Then he sent Xu Zhifan a message.
-Old equipment room
They don't usually come here in the old equipment room, and when Huo Ran stood here, he could still think of when they were sitting on the edge of the second floor platform on the day of the rooftop confession.
I can still remember the screams and applause around Lin Wuyu when he said those words.
There is also the phrase "beautiful" that Kou Chen stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up.
Huo Ran sighed softly.
When Xu Zhifan walked over quickly, he suddenly became a little timid again.
"What's wrong?" Xu Zhifan asked before he even walked in front of him.
Huo Ran opened his mouth and said nothing.
Xu Zhifan looked around, but didn't say anything, just looked at him.
"That, Zhifan," Huo Ran held back for a while, then stammered, "Just... I think, there is something, I... "
Xu Zhifan sighed softly, didn't interrupt him, just listened quietly.
"Are you homophobic?" Huo Ran gritted his teeth and borrowed the sentence Kou Chen asked him.
"Don't be afraid." Xu Zhifan answered quickly and calmly without his surprise and surprise.
Huo Ran looked at him.
"Say it." Xu Zhifan said.
"Did you have something to ask me before?" Huo Ran said.
"Well," Xu Zhifan nodded, "I said I'll ask again in two days, but it's only one day."
"You ask." Huo Ran cleared his throat.
"I know you can't hold back your character for two days," Xu Zhifan said, "Then I'll ask."
"Yeah." Huo Ran felt that he couldn't breathe, and his heart was beating wildly.
So he grabbed a small sapling next to him.
Xu Zhifan looked at the hand he was holding the sapling, and lowered his voice: "Do you have any thoughts about Kou Chen?"
Huo Ran raised his head suddenly.
"Like it?" Xu Zhifan tried to ask again.
These two words were like a broken wire, and they were pulled out of his mind with a flash of light and electricity.
Before this second, Huo Ran hadn't determined what happened to him.
Not even sure.
He didn't even know what he wanted to say when he called Xu Zhifan out.
But the moment he heard Xu Zhifan say these two words.
He found himself clear about everything.
"I'm like... No, it's not like," Huo Ran heard his own voice as if three hundred meters away, "Just, just..."
Xu Zhifan didn't speak, and the calm expression on his face was full of surprises. It could be seen that although he was suspicious, he was not completely sure.
Huo Ran instantly had a naive feeling of "Okay, we're even."
He flicked his fingers on the sapling, then cleared his throat: "I like Kou Chen."
