——"Don't tell Lu Yong that I like him."
That's what I said, but in fact, Shen Wenqiu was always ignorant in high school.
At that time, even if the cutest girl chatted with him for a few days, he would feel so impatient, but when he was with Lu Yong, he felt that time passed so fast, and all the friends who had a good time before were all forgotten by him.
But Shen Wenqiu didn't realize that he was addicted to it at all, and his friends around him expressed dissatisfaction more and more frequently, and he still felt that the other party was making a fuss.
That time when he lied and went to play with Lu Yong on the weekend and was smashed by Sheng Xu, Shen Wenqiu was worried all day.
When he arrives at school next Monday, he can't help worrying that he will receive strange looks, but Sheng Xu's attitude is as if nothing happened, the world is peaceful.
Instead, Shen Wenqiu couldn't hold back anymore and asked him, "Didn't you tell them?"
Sheng Xu asked in displeasure: "In your heart, am I the kind of person with a colander's mouth? You are also a weirdo. You feel uncomfortable after too many good days, and you have to suffer."
Shen Wenqiu was so ridiculed that he felt weird in his heart, and he argued: "It's not really picking up scraps, Lu Yong is very good..."
Sheng Xu didn't want to listen to him at all: "It's fine, it's fine, don't praise him in front of me. I usually play with him for your sake. I don't get along with such a person, so you think he is kind and honest. Look, he is the one who hides evil intentions the deepest, no one is as sinister and treacherous as him."
How could Shen Wenqiu listen to such words, and he was about to get angry: "If you don't like him, you don't like him, and it doesn't have to be so ugly."
A pair of good friends almost fell out because of this, and they had a tantrum for several days and had a cold war.
In the end, Lu Yong stood up and asked him, "Is it because I quarreled?"
… like this time, after a dozen years.
Shen Wenqiu sent Sheng Xu back home, because the conversation was not very pleasant, so of course his face didn't look good.
As soon as he came home, he saw Lu Yong waiting in the living room. As soon as he saw him coming back, he immediately got up and looked at him in a daze. He wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask. He just said, "Have you had a fight? I'm the one who hurt you again." Did you quarrel?" Shen Wenqiu shook his head and said, "How can this be blamed on you. It's not a quarrel, Xiaoxu has always had that bad temper, he borrowed so much money from me and it's all in vain. There is actually pressure at home too.”
But when he saw Lu Yong, Shen Wenqiu seemed to hear Sheng Xu's thorny answer just now, "You still treat him as a fool? How can he be so stupid as a person who can start a big company? He knows very well, Is it my turn to tell or not?"
On the contrary, he was blinded, Shen Wenqiu thought, he had even asked "Do you want me to buy it for 800 yuan at a time", even if he made up for it later, who would believe such a clumsy reason? Does Lu Yong actually know
Shen Wenqiu looked at Lu Yong, the corners of Lu Yong's eyes and brows seemed to be hesitant to speak. Shen Wenqiu thought to himself, what did they say in the coffee shop? Lu Yong doesn't lie, but Lu Yong will hide things. Sheng Xu doesn't have many real words in his mouth, and what he said is also subtle. Could it be that he has already revealed it in the coffee shop
When Lu Yong hung up the phone, he seemed to hear Sheng Xu about to swear...
People always have mixed feelings about people who like themselves but don't like them, because they can't respond to this love, and feel heavy and embarrassed, but if the other party doesn't violate the rules, or even doesn't ask for anything in return, then they will even feel guilty. This creates an inexplicable sense of responsibility for it.
But their situation is more complicated. It was Lu Yong who confessed earlier, but time has passed.
Shen Wenqiu rubbed his nose: "It's nothing. Sheng Xu said that he would come back later when he was free. He was just throwing a temper tantrum and thought I wasn't good enough. The point was to scold me for not telling him about my jumping into the river last time. Then I think Shame on you. Do you have anything else to say about what you're watching me do? I have something growing on my face?"
Lu Yong exhaled through his nose, and said: "I hope you can make more friends, those who will lend you money when you are in the most difficult time are all true friends, and they are worth dating, it's a pity to divide them like this. "
"I'm really sorry." Shen Wenqiu said, "I've been loathing for so many years, I really thought I couldn't get it, but now there are cracks even if I get it, I don't want to think about it." Befriend me again...but it's still better than never."
Lu Yong stopped and said, "Don't think too much about it. You didn't mean to read books. Read it first. If there are any words you don't understand, I will explain them to you later. There is also information about Y Town. You have to go on a business trip with me the day after tomorrow, go over and investigate."
"Okay, I'll read a book after taking a shower." Shen Wenqiu nodded and said.
Lu Yong watched him walk into the bathroom and close the door, as if entering another world, separating the two of them for a while.
Lu Yong also went back to his room and took off his clothes one by one. Napoleon said that when you take off your clothes is the time to take off your troubles. Usually he takes it very seriously, but today is different. He tries his best to calm down his upset emotions, routinely disassembles the prosthetics, cleans and disinfects them, and does a good job of maintenance.
After getting used to wearing prosthetics, taking them off will make you feel less comfortable.
"Why do you talk to me like you are on the commanding heights... I was the one who helped Shen Wenqiu when his family went bankrupt..."
The words Sheng Xu said were like long thin needles, piercing a certain abscess that had been hidden all along. It's not that Lu Yong didn't think about it, what did Shen Wenqiu do when he was most difficult and helpless? He remembered very clearly that he was inspecting project technology abroad. He knew that he couldn't help at that moment, but whether it was useful or not was one thing, but whether it was helpful or not was another.
He really hadn't inquired about Shen Wenqiu in these years, why did he have to be so straight-minded, wouldn't he turn a corner
If he had gone to Shen Wenqiu earlier, why would he have come to this point... Even if Shen Wenqiu hated him, even if he would be scolded, it shouldn't be delayed until now. Just because of his cowardice, he really didn't dare to inquire about Shen Wenqiu's affairs, and closed his ears, so clumsy and dull.
Did Shen Wenqiu have to call him to beg him before he knew he needed help? Where has he been before
Sheng Xu was right, he was not qualified to act as a kind person.
Obviously he cared more, if it had been earlier, maybe Uncle Shen would not have passed away, and Shen Wenqiu would not have fallen into that field.
Lu Yong thought, he and Shen Wenqiu should be different from passers-by, his turning a blind eye is a disguised form of harm.
in the bathroom.
Shen Wenqiu stood under the shower head and let the warm water wash his face on his back.
He is now taking medicine and treatment, even if he wants to escape, Lu Yong will supervise him to take medicine on time.
He secretly thought that Lu Yong was his medicine, hanging his life.
It's just that this liking is as delicate as poppy sugar, fragile and sweet. Knowing that it melts in the mouth, he still can't help but want to taste it, just for such an extremely short-lived bit of sweetness, there is only a ration of the amount of the pill for him to absorb every day The drive to face a cruel world that day.
So selfish. he thinks.
Shen Wenqiu took a shower, read the information books for an hour, and went back to his room to sleep.
"Thump." Lu Yong knocked on the door.
This is Lu Yong's home, but Lu Yong wants to knock on the door of a guy who is parasitic in his life like a hermit crab. Shen Wenqiu probably thinks it is absurd when he thinks about it.
Lu Yong took the medicine and a glass of water, and wanted to watch Shen Wenqiu take it with his own eyes. The medicine Shen Wenqiu takes every week is kept by Lu Yong, so as to prevent Shen Wenqiu from taking medicine indiscriminately when he gets emotional.
But sometimes Shen Wenqiu would wonder, who is the secretary, and feel that Lu Yong is like his father, who would take the trouble to tell him to cover the quilt after he finished taking the medicine. Dropped the phone and said, "Good night, little baa."
Shen Wenqiu would feel like he had become a child in a trance, and he would reply: "Good night, Dayong."
Lu Yong turned off the lights and left, closing the door.
Shen Wenqiu didn't fall asleep. He looked at his room, partly because he had no money, and partly because he didn't really make up his mind to live there for the rest of his life, so he didn't furnish anything except basic furniture.
How can you be so thick-skinned? How did he think when he was in the hospital, and he could say such a thing.
Free is the most expensive.
What is always and forever is the most transient and changeable.
He has tried his best to make himself look happier, but Lu Yong is still cautious about him, who would like someone like this when he is always around
Lu Yong did it out of guilt and responsibility. Probably when he was helped to stand up and walk by himself, Lu Yong would be able to let him go with confidence, right
Blink of an eye to a day later.
Shen Wenqiu packed his luggage, and set off for Town Y with Lu Yong, first took a plane from the airport to the nearest big city, and then drove there.
They also went there ten years ago. It was very troublesome at that time. The construction of the motherland is changing rapidly, and now the transportation is much more convenient. Shen Wenqiu remembers that it took the two of them almost three days to reach the destination.
…
The final exam of the first year of high school is approaching.
Shen Wen Qiutian was with Lu Yong, and of course found that he seemed to be even more stingy. He used to order one meat and one vegetarian dish in the cafeteria, but now he only ordered one vegetarian dish, and he eats all the meals. I don’t know how he can bear it. . Not to mention other aspects, I was reluctant to buy the draft paper when I ran out of it at school. I asked Shen Wenqiu if I wanted to write it again on the paper I had written.
Shen Wenqiu asked him incomprehensibly: "Are you saving money? I remember that uncle paid enough for your living expenses. If you want to buy some materials, I will help you. Don't make yourself sick."
Lu Yong said shyly: "No, I want to save some money for travel expenses."
Shen Wenqiu asked: "Toll? What kind of toll? Where are you going? Travel?"
Lu Yong shook his head again and again, and said, "No, I want to go to Town Y. I heard from my uncle who was traveling with me that there are many electronic waste recycling factories there. I want to take a look at it with my own eyes during the winter vacation."
Shen Wenqiu opened his eyes wide, without saying a word: "I will go too. You take me with you."
Lu Yong always remembered Shen Wenqiu's appearance when he said this, like a cute cuddly puppy with sparkling eyes, his face turned red, he couldn't say no to it.
"But I don't have much money. I'm going to take the bus or the train. It's tiring."
"I'm not afraid." "...Okay. Let's go together."
At that time, Lu Yong had never traveled far, so he didn't know how to buy a ticket, so he bought it late, and only got two tickets for the long queue.
It was only later that he found out that Shen Wenqiu had originally planned to travel abroad and go to an amusement park, but he was abducted by him onto a train full of returning migrant workers with a small schoolbag on his back.
The train station is full of people, too crowded.
At that time, Nokia brick phones were popular, and in the 2G era, the signal was very poor. Lu Yong was afraid of losing the young master, so he had to take a step to see if Shen Wenqiu was still there.
Shen Wenqiu took a step forward in the crowd, Lu Yong felt a warm hand sneak into his palm unexpectedly, and pressed it wetly, Shen Wenqiu stood next to him and said: "Let's hold hands, otherwise was washed away."
