The next day, Chen Xingze slept until noon, and when he opened his eyes, he fell asleep like a dream and felt dizzy.

Because of the hangover, Chen Xingze had a severe headache and his body was screaming for soreness. He sat up, suddenly felt a chill under him, touched the inside of the quilt, and was surprised to find that he was naked. Chen Xingze didn't know what was going on. He took the glasses from the bedside and stumbled to the bathroom to take a shower.

His underwear hung on a hanger in the bathroom and looked washed. Chen Xingze was a little confused, thinking while taking a shower, there was no one else in the room, it must be Mi Sheng who helped him wash.

but why…

Why did Mi Sheng help him wash his underwear

Chen Xingze's thoughts are simple, and his emotional experiences from childhood to adulthood always start with "love", and he will not reverse the order at all, cross the stage of "love", and think about the possibility of having sex with others.

After taking a shower and turning off the shower, Chen Xingze finally came up with a possibility with his chaotic brain.

Before the underwear was dry, Chen Xingze was embarrassed to hang it like this, so he put it away. He put his pants on his bare butt. Just after getting dressed, Mi Sheng came back from outside with breakfast.

"Are you awake? Eat something." Mi Sheng's voice was a little hoarse.

Chen Xingze watched Mi Sheng put breakfast on the table and unpacked boxes one by one. He came to Mi Sheng and stared at his profile, thinking that maybe it was too cold outside, which made his face look paler than usual.

"that… "

Mi Sheng turned his head, Chen Xingze blushed, "You... Did you wash my underwear?"

Mi Sheng hummed.

Chen Xingze was ashamed and muttered something.

Mi Sheng said lightly, "What do you tell the mosquitoes?"

Chen Xingze raised his voice with difficulty, "Did I drink too much... pee my pants?"

Mi Sheng did not speak.

Chen Xingze blushed and said, "I'm sorry, it's so dirty. Actually, you don't have to worry about me."

After a while of silence, Mi Sheng suddenly laughed and said indifferently, "You really don't remember?"

Chen Xingze: "What?"

Mi Sheng looked deeply into Chen Xingze's eyes, trying to find any clues about the default. It's a pity that the first time they looked at each other, he knew that he was telling the truth. Mi Sheng looked away first and looked at the dusty window edge. "...If only you could lie," he said in a voice that no one could hear.

Chen Xingze took a half step forward, "What did you say?"

Mi Sheng murmured: "I mean... did you sleep well last night, did you have a dream, was it a good dream or a nightmare?"

Chen Xingze didn't know why Mi Sheng suddenly asked such a question. After thinking about it, he said, "I can't remember it very well, maybe I didn't. I drank too much.

Mi Sheng looked at him again.

Chen Xingze: "What's wrong?"

Mi Sheng was not reconciled and asked again, "Do you think about it again?"

Before Chen Xingze could think again, his cell phone rang. It was Wu Xingzhi who called and asked him about his preparation for the exam. Only then did Chen Xingze remember that there will be a school recruitment exam tomorrow. Wu Xingzhi thought that Chen Xingze was in Beijing, but he did not know that he was in a hotel not far from home.

Hanging up the phone, Chen Xingze hurriedly put on his jacket.

"I go first."

"Where?"

"Station, I have to go back to Beijing immediately."

"Let's go now?" Mi Sheng took his arm, "Eat something first."

Chen Xingze: "It's too late."

In fact, Mi Sheng never imagined that after Chen Xingze woke up, they could talk to each other smoothly, and then meet for a lifetime, but now this is too bad. People who are in love will always become weak. Mi Sheng took Chen Xingze's arm and pulled it tightly, like a child who can't bear his mother.

"Don't go, stay a while longer."

In a very short time, Mi Sheng thought about whether to tell him what happened last night, but after hearing Chen Xingze say "I have an exam tomorrow", he swallowed his words automatically.

Chen Xingze left.

Mi Sheng sat alone at the table to eat. He was afraid that the sweet potato porridge would be cold. He fought wits and courage with the stingy shop assistant for more than ten minutes before adding an extra box. But now, this dense double-pack has made his already poor appetite worse.

He sat in a daze, and after a while, his pocket vibrated, Mi Sheng quickly took out his phone, and was disappointed to find that it was not Chen Xingze. Mi Jie urged him to go home quickly, she would move out in two days. "Mom can't be without people. If you have to work, please hire a nanny." Just after putting down the phone, the phone vibrated again. This time it was Jo, and Mi Shengli ignored it and hung up.

He was lying on the table, his gray-brown pupils looked out the window. The winter in the north is too desolate, and at a glance, it is like an old photo that has lost its color. Mi Sheng closed his eyes, his waist was so painful that he was about to break off, but in such an environment, it seemed that no matter how much pain, he was numb.

He rested for a while, brought the ointment bought at the pharmacy, and went to the bathroom to apply medicine to himself.

This winter is destined to make many people uncomfortable.

Chen Xingze's exam was terrible. In fact, he had a hunch. After all, at the most critical moment, his mind was not on study. God is fair in some things. Just like a soldier who had to go on stage knowing that he would be defeated, Chen Xingze was sweating profusely in the examination room, and he couldn't even hear the most basic sounds. He kept staring at the time, praying for the torture to end soon.

Wu Xingzhi was well-connected in the music circle, and she soon found out about Chen Xingze's achievements.

Chen Xingze applied for music majors in four schools in total, but Wu Xingzhi called Chen Xingze back just after the second exam.

"You don't need to take the test, pack your things and come back."

Apart from the gentle township that is not warm, Chen Xingze still has more things to face. It was Tuesday when he got home. Wu Xingzhi and Chen He were busy with work on weekdays and seldom at home on weekends, let alone on weekdays. But on this day, they both took leave to wait for Chen Xingze to come back.

"Tell me, what's the matter with the exam?" Wu Xingzhi said, Chen He was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigarette, such an atmosphere made Chen Xingze's chest tight.

"Sorry, I didn't pass the exam."

Wu Xingzhi held a copy of the score and said, "Is this a bad test? Professor Wang and I want to come to the concerto you composed in the test room. Would you like me to play it and listen to it for yourself?"

Chen Xingze bowed his head in shame.

After being quiet, Wu Xingzhi said again: "To be honest, I have been waiting, waiting to see what kind of answer sheet you will hand in after three years with such a learning attitude. Chen Xingze, you really are. It didn't disappoint me."

Chen Xingze's face seemed to be on fire. Although he did not grow up with a golden spoon like Lu Hao, his life was more comfortable and free than most of his peers. His parents had always cultivated him with a Western-oriented educational attitude, focusing on encouragement. In his impression, Wu Xingzhi had never said such a thing to him.

Wu Xingzhi held the sheet music and said, "Chen Xingze, ask yourself, have your parents forced you? I never force you to do anything, because I know that if people don't wake up by themselves, even if they use a whip, they will be useless. You don't want to go. I won't let you go to the cram school. If you don't want to live on campus, I'll rent a house for you next to the school. You didn't meet your parents' requirements since you were a child, so you just repay us like this?"

The more Wu Xingzhi said, the louder, "I'd admit it if you were really stupid, but are you stupid?" She slammed the copy of Chen Xingze's composition score to the ground, "You're not even as good as you were three years ago! How do you want to explain?!"

Chen Xingze's body was trembling. In the past, he would tremble when he was sad for You Xiaolin and Lu Hao, but that trembling sounded more like a greenhouse flower that was looking for something to stretch its branches out of the window and accidentally got frostbite. At this moment, someone forcibly lifted the roof of the greenhouse, leaving him naked in the storm and snow, forcing him to recognize a fact. He abandoned his studies, and as a student, he failed to complete the most basic tasks.

Chen Xingze could not wait to find a crack to get in, his eyes were sore.

"Why are you crying?" Chen He, who had been smoking on the sofa, finally said, "Cry at every turn, are you a girl?"

Wu Xingzhi glanced at Chen He.

Chen He: "Still crying? Can crying solve the problem? You are still not a man!"

"Chen He." Wu Xingzhi gave a warning drink.

Chen Xingze raised his head, just to see Wu Xingzhi looking at Chen He. He knew his parents too well, and with that look, he knew what his mother was conveying to his father.

He suddenly panicked.

"What's the meaning… "

He Zhang Huang was at a loss, and his words were out of tune.

"You, you know?"

Wu Xingzhi and Chen He didn't speak, which was the default.

Chen Xingze felt that the blood all over his body was drained, "How did you know?"

Wu Xingzhi said, "When I was packing, I saw the foreign magazines you ordered."

Chen Xingze: "That's it, that's it?"

Chen He stood up angrily, pointed at him, and said, "We already knew! We are your parents, what can you hide from us! Including you skipping classes with Lu Hao when you were in school, and your training in Beijing. It’s time to sneak out to play, we all know! We don’t say it because we trust you, and we want you to be sensible so we don’t care about you!”

After accepting too many things at one time, Chen Xingze felt that the world was spinning.

Chen He: "Are you still crying? Come over here! I don't think you'll be able to wake up if I don't settle the account with you today!"

Chen Xingze's lips were numb, and he could only keep apologizing.

Chen He rolled up the newspaper on the table and rushed over to hit Chen Xingze, but Wu Xingzhi stopped him halfway.

"You calm down."

Chen He was furious.

"Get out of the way! How long do you want him to be addicted?!"

Wu Xingzhi held Chen He tightly.

Chen He pointed at Chen Xingze and shouted: "I think this is your last fig leaf! The mayor of Berlin is also gay, look at what they look like. You earn your dignity! You are at least responsible for your own life. I can't do it! I cry and cry every day like this and love that! Do you think this society is very tolerant? Do you think anyone can tolerate you? mouth?!"

Chen He was hoarse, his eyes were red, and there were dignified tears in his eyes, and he couldn't tell whether it was anger or worry.

Just like the top of Mount Tai, Chen Xingze's knees softened and he fell to the ground. He bowed his head to his parents, snot and tears streaming down the floor.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong..."

That night, along with this scolding, a snowstorm fell in the city, and the blizzard fell for two days and two nights, washing the world anew.
