The ignorant junior high school career passed so smoothly, and the three little friends entered high school.
Before the high school entrance examination, there was an accident at Shi An. Shi An's mother proposed that Shi An give up her studies and choose to go to vocational high school, so that she can work as soon as possible to make money.
Fortunately, with the persuasion of Zhang Jing, Du Yan and the two adults, Shi An's mother gave up this unreliable idea and agreed to let Shi An continue to study in high school.
In the last year of junior high school, Zhang Jing, who has always been the first in the grade, took on the important task of tutoring for Du Yan and Shi An.
Du Yan and Shi An's grades have been hovering in the middle. Du Yan is too distracted to study because he is too distracted, while Shi An is because he spends most of his time doing things for his mother.
Fortunately, both of them were very smart, and under Zhang Jing's supervision, they were both successfully admitted to the best high school in the city.
The three continued as classmates and began their high school careers.
The high school they attend is quite far from home, and it takes at least an hour to get there by car.
Considering the stress of high school, it would be uneconomical to waste a lot of time on the road, so Du Yan, Zhang Jing and Shi An decided to start their accommodation careers.
As soon as the high school entrance examination results came out, Zhang Jing stared at his father, making sure that Du Yan and himself would be assigned to the same class and the same dormitory.
Considering Shi An's introverted character, Zhang Jing also took care of this childhood friend. So, Du Yan, Zhang Jing and Shi An were divided into the same bedroom.
Shi An's mother recently changed jobs, and the economy is no longer as tight as before, just busier. She finally stopped asking Shi An to report to the school, but asked Shi An and his friends to report to the high school together.
The dormitory building of the high school has been newly built in the past two years, and the conditions are very good. Quadruple room, bed and table, there is a bathroom that supplies hot water regularly at night. Anyway, it was much better than Du Yan and Zhang Jing imagined.
And luck is even better because when this year's freshmen were assigned to their dormitory, there was no one left, so there were only three people living in their dormitory.
For someone like Zhang Jing who is somewhat withdrawn and has a strong sense of territory, he can fully accept living with Du Yan. Shi An was also able to endure reluctantly because of his childhood friendship. If there is another stranger, it will probably take him a long time to get used to it.
But now the dormitory is full of familiar people, which makes him feel good.
Zhang Jing and Du Yan chose the bed on the left, the beds of the two happened to be next to each other, and Shi An chose the bed opposite Du Yan.
Perhaps it was the first time the three of them stayed away from home and lived in the same dormitory. Even Zhang Jing, who had an extremely stable personality, was a little excited.
After the lights were turned off, the three of them chatted until about twelve o'clock, and then fell asleep with no end in sight.
Before going to bed, Zhang Jing and Du Yan also discussed each other's sleeping direction, and finally felt that it was not good to sleep with their feet on the other person's head, so they fell asleep head-to-head.
Perhaps in an unfamiliar environment, or because he was too excited at night, Zhang Jing did not sleep very well. In the middle of the night, he seemed to hear someone calling "Zhang Jing" in the dimness.
He was very familiar with that voice, and it was clearly Du Yan's voice. Even though his consciousness was still a little fuzzy, Zhang Jing sat up immediately.
He looked around, everything in front of him was a little strange, and only then did he realize that he was in the bedroom now. Zhang Jing thought of the sound he had just heard, and turned to look, only to find that Du Yan was sleeping soundly, and it turned out that he was just talking in his sleep.
The moonlight tonight is excellent, the curtains are not closed, and the moonlight falls on the ground white. Although the lights were not turned on in the room, under the moonlight, Zhang Jing could see everything clearly after getting used to it.
Although it is already September, it is unexpectedly hot today.
Before going to bed, Du Yan felt it was too hot, took off his shirt, and went to sleep wearing only a pair of shorts.
He slept in an extremely dishonest position, and now had the whole blanket thrown aside. Zhang Jing sighed helplessly, reached out and tried to pull the blanket over Du Yan.
However, his hand accidentally touched Du Yan's shoulder. It feels smooth and delicate in the palm of the hand, and the warm skin is very elastic, which makes people want to stay on it for a while.
Zhang Jing, who was aware of this thought, suddenly retracted his hand. He looked at Du Yan in disbelief, not understanding why he had such strange thoughts about Du Yan of the same gender.
Looking at it, Zhang Jing felt that Du Yan's shoulders were beautiful, the shape of his collarbone was just right, and everything seemed to be according to his own wishes.
Zhang Jing was stunned, he suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was somewhat familiar. Perhaps the scene was quiet now, and he quickly understood why he felt deja vu.
That night more than a year ago was also in darkness, in that chaotic and ambiguous dream. The person entangled with him seems to have such a collarbone, such a shoulder line.
This familiar feeling made Zhang Jing stretch out his hand as if he was obsessed, trying to confirm something.
His hand just fell on Du Yan's shoulder, and it didn't stay long. Du Yan suddenly let out a somewhat impatient hum and knocked Zhang Jing's hand off with one hand.
Zhang Jing finally recovered from that dazed state. He panicked for a while, his heartbeat accelerated to the extreme, and he even held his breath and looked at Du Yan nervously.
Fortunately, Du Yan was still asleep, but he just turned over.
Zhang Jing didn't dare to do anything more, he raised his hand and pulled up the blanket that Du Yan kicked aside to cover him tightly, and then fell on his bed again.
He covered his head under the blanket, trying to fall asleep without thinking about the scene just now. However, after tossing and turning, Zhang Jing was still completely drowsy, and he could only hear his own heartbeat that was getting louder and louder.
Just when Zhang Jing's mind was full of chaotic and unorganized thoughts, and he couldn't fall asleep, he suddenly heard movement in the bed opposite.
Zhang Jing opened his eyes slightly and found that it was Shi An who got out of bed and went to the bathroom. He closed his eyes and continued trying to fall asleep.
However, after a while, Zhang Jing felt something was wrong. After Shi An came out of the bathroom, he didn't hear him crawling into the bed.
Zhang Jing was a little puzzled, so he opened his eyes and looked over.
The scene in front of him made Zhang Jing a little surprised. Shi An stood in front of Du Yan's bed, very close, and he stared at Du Yan who was sleeping like that, without moving for a long time.
Zhang Jing didn't say anything, just slowed his breathing and paid close attention to Shi An's actions.
Shi An just stood looking at Du Yan for a long time, and finally seemed to make up his mind, and reached out his hand as if to touch Du Yan's face.
Zhang Jing frowned slightly, still did not make a sound, but turned over suddenly, and then sat up again.
Zhang Jing pretended to have just woken up, and when he rubbed his eyes and looked over, Shi An had already left Du Yan's bed some distance away.
He asked softly, "Shi An? You haven't fallen asleep yet?"
In the darkness, Zhang Jing couldn't see Shi'an's expression clearly, and only heard him whisper, "I'll get up and go to the toilet."
Zhang Jing said, "How are you, then I'll go."
"Um."
When Zhang Jing came out of the bathroom, everything had returned to calm. Except for the clear moonlight, no one knew what had just happened.
Zhang Jing walked to the window, raised his hand and pulled the curtain tightly, then climbed onto his bed and fell down.
***
The next morning, Du Yan was very surprised when he sat up.
Because he was the first person to wake up in the dormitory, Du Yan jumped off the bed, put on his clothes, and ran to the bathroom to wash up.
When he came out, he found that Zhang Jing and Shi An were still sleeping.
Du Yan walked to Zhang Jing's bed and whispered, "Zhang Xiaojing."
The only thing that responded to him was the sound of regular breathing. Du Yan looked at Zhang Jing's sleeping face, and suddenly smiled: "It's a rare opportunity, it's the first time I've encountered Zhang Jing falling asleep when I'm awake."
Du Yan walked to his desk and took out a water-based marker. Although he was a prankster, he was still able to keep a good grasp of the proportions. This kind of water-based marker can be cleaned after washing with water, without any worries.
Du Yan started painting directly on Zhang Jing's face, drawing wrinkles on his forehead, and drawing bags under his eyes.
"This is a veritable little old man." Du Yan looked at his masterpiece, thought about it, and drew a beard on Zhang Jing's lips.
When he was about to make the last stroke, he suddenly heard a movement behind him. Du Yan felt guilty, and when he shook his hand, the cold marker fell heavily on Zhang Jing's lips.
He was startled, and quickly put his hands behind him, pretending to be nonchalant.
Zhang Jing frowned slightly, touched his lips, and opened his eyes.
At first, he was still a little confused. When he saw the person standing in front of him, he almost jumped and sat up abruptly: "What are you doing?"
Du Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking why Zhang Jing was so excited, there is no mirror, did he discover his prank so quickly.
He smiled a few times with a guilty conscience and changed the subject: "Well, it's nothing, I'll go buy you breakfast first, see you in the cafeteria!"
After speaking, Du Yan fled away, leaving Zhang Jing sitting on the bed and touching his lips in disbelief.
