Dou Xun slowly let go of Xu Xilin, resting on the sofa with one hand, his eyes became calmer, he touched Xu Xilin's face with his fingertips, and rubbed his broken lips apologetically: "I'll open the door for you. ."
Xu Xilin reached out and grabbed a handful of his hair as if he was sleepwalking. He picked up the phone and immediately woke up when he saw the missed call, and sat up immediately.
At this time, Dou Xun had already opened the door.
Song Lianyuan was carrying a lot of things, looked at Dou Xun suspiciously, took a step back, and carefully looked at the house number.
"Am I right?" He muttered, and asked Dou Xun again, "This... is Xu Xilin's house?"
Song Lianyuan and Dou Xun had met before, but at that time, there were not 10,000 or 8,000 little cubs in and out of the crescent moon. Ten years later, the teenagers have grown into young people, and the young people are almost middle-aged, even though the body and facial features have not changed much. , The temperament has long been different, and neither of them recognized each other.
Xu Xilin scrambling to get up to meet the door, called "brother" after Dou Xun.
"Oh, my friend is here?" Song Lianyuan just wanted to ask him why he didn't open the door for a long time. When he saw Xu Xilin's face that said whether it was red or white, he frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"
Xu Xilin: "..."
It's embarrassing enough. I was still arguing with Dou Xun about whether there was anyone in charge, and the person who took care of him came.
Xu Xilin pointed at Dou Xun and said, "You've seen it before, this is me..."
"Classmate." Dou Xun interrupted him, "I just returned to China recently, and they helped me move the house in the past two days. He has a stomach problem today, and I happened to send him back—Brother Song, right? It was blocked by hooligans outside, and you helped."
Song Lianyuan let out an "oh", his expression still very confused - back then, Yue Banwan was his territory, and when the gangster bullied the students, as long as he came across it, he would take care of it, and he didn't know which student Dou Xun was.
At the same time, he was a little uneasy in his heart - men also have a sixth sense, and there are many people who call Xu Xilin brothers and sisters. When he was in the south, he brought a group of people back every three days. Clearing his face, he didn't feel that anyone was special, except for the young man in front of him, Song Lianyuan always felt something was wrong.
Xu Xilin quickly said, "Why are you back?"
Song Lianyuan frowned and threw all the things he brought back into his kitchen: "Bring your sister-in-law back to my mother's grave—I didn't tell you? Where are the ears?"
Song Heimian has shared weal and woe with Xu Xilin over the years, and he is closer than his brother, so he doesn't show up with him. He directly stuffed all the food he brought back into his kitchen locker and refrigerator, and found that most of the pots and pans he bought back. Even the outer packaging was not removed, and his face became even darker.
"How many times have I told you, don't socialize, can't you just go home and cook a bowl of porridge by yourself? Don't listen - who is sick if you're not sick?" All the ambiguous air in the house.
This made the grey parrot heave a sigh of relief. Everything that happened in this room just now made it uneasy. Finally, someone he knew came, and it immediately found a sense of security, and followed the words: "Who is sick if you are not sick?"
Xu Xilin glared at the little beast who was eating inside and out. Dou Xun stretched out his hand and touched a bird's wing with a half-smiling smile. The grey parrot was frightened by him just now. He was just mad and didn't dare to say anything. He couldn't afford to hide. He flew to the heights without saying a word.
Dou Xun withdrew his hand: "Then I'll go first - Brother Song, I'll chat another day."
Song Lianyuan: "Hey - okay, Xiaolin is going to send it off."
"No, you can rest." Dou Xunji took a few steps back, wiping the corner of his mouth meaningfully, and turned away.
Without thinking, Xu Xilin leaned on the wall and chased out.
Dou Xun stood in the corridor waiting for the elevator, slowly buttoning his coat, and when he looked back, he saw Xu Xilin standing at the door, and said, "I'm going to report to the project first tomorrow. If you are free these two days, go to the hospital to have a look."
As delicate as Xu Xilin, of course, Dou Xun's implication was to let him cool down for a few days and stop harassing him.
Xu Xilin sighed: "Whether you believe it or not, I really don't have one."
"No" means that he is not just playing with the ambiguity of "unforgettable old love", Xu Xilin vaguely connected with the interrupted conversation between the two.
"I know, I said it just now." Dou Xun responded lightly, and then added, "I'm sorry."
Xu Xilin was a little shocked, not knowing how these three words got into Dou Xun's dictionary.
As a result, Dou Xungang apologized, and the next moment he stabbed him again: "With the current national conditions of our country, even if you want to be the president of the country, you have to live to the 60th or so."
Xu Xilin: "..."
He leaned against the door helplessly and looked at Dou Xun.
Dou Xun remembered this expression. In the past, every time he was confused or angry, Xu Xilin looked at him with this expression. Xu Xilin was not without temper. Many times, only under this kind of gaze can Dou Xun feel that Xu Xilin also takes himself to heart.
Looking back now, although he was not a thing when he was a child, he didn't ramble on his grandmother, Aunt Du, and Xu Jin, who were nice to him. .
In fact, it is just a kind of insatiable demand, right
Dou Xun's heart was full of nostalgia and nostalgia, and his heart was so soft that he almost wanted to turn back and take away the people who were leaning against the door.
As a result, Song Lianyuan chased after him again at this time, and took out a box of tea leaves, which he had to stuff into Dou Xun: "Students take this... This is what your sister-in-law and a friend made of tea planted by themselves, and they sifted out more than ten kilograms in a year. Go back and try it, and if you drink it well, let her get it for you next year."
The dark tide between his eyebrows was interrupted by the black-faced elder brother's box of tea, Dou Xun was afraid that Song Lianyuan would see something.
I had an attack just now, but now it's not good to cause Xu Xilin any more trouble, so he had to take the tea, leave his heart behind, and direct his body to take the elevator downstairs.
Xu Xilin turned around and saw Song Lianyuan's suspicious and scrutinizing eyes, and suddenly felt his stomach hurt even more.
Song Lianyuan said absent-mindedly, "I brought some snacks here, you go and set up a few plates for the old lady to offer."
Generally, the older generation in the north does this. On the anniversary of the death or the Qingming Festival, a table is set up, and a few plates of fruit, snacks, chickens and ducks are placed on it to "offer" the deceased relatives, but Xu Xilin's generation has rarely done this. .
"My grandmother didn't eat lard and noodles when she was alive." Xu Xilin wandered into the kitchen boredly, and looked through the things Song Lianyuan had brought - there was nothing he wanted to eat, "It looks gloomy, and besides, I have swept the tomb. ."
Song Lianyuan didn't force it, he folded his arms in front of his chest, and his eyes stopped on his broken lips: "Who is that person who came here just now?"
Xu Xilin pressed his left lower abdomen with one hand, hunched slightly, turned his head sideways, and his eyes touched Song Lianyuan lightly.
"Classmate." Xu Xilin said.
Song Lianyuan's expression changed, but Xu Xilin added another sentence: "It's also what you think."
Song Lianyuan: "..."
For some reason, these words blurted out, Xu Xilin suddenly felt a lot better, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his body, he pointed to his face and asked Song Lianyuan, "Are you hitting?"
Song Lianyuan was no longer an angry young man, and Xu Xilin was also a man who ran three times, so he couldn't do anything anymore, Big Brother Song was so angry at him: "I said why are you so anxious to go back, your sister-in-law told me that I still I don't believe it... Didn't it end long ago? Why is there still contact?"
"I ran into it, I want to chase again, but people are ignoring me now." Xu Xilin walked past him indifferently, "If you still don't hit me, if you don't hit me, I'll go sideways for a while, don't quarrel with me."
Song Lianyuan watched helplessly as he floated past him, and immediately reacted violently: "Xu Xilin! You... I really need to open your mind to see what you think. Getting married, having children, learning from each other's strengths, each family needs What the hell are the two men doing? Isn't the function repeated? The place seems to be crowded!"
Song Lianyuan's anger was hoarse, but Xu Xilin may have been overjoyed and sad, and his emotions would be a little numb, but he heard something funny from it, and he curled up on the sofa and smiled.
Song Lianyuan picked up the paper document next to him and slapped his head: "Smile!"
Song Hei sat down to the side with a sad face, sulking for a while: "What's wrong with all of you? Can it be cured?"
After hearing this, Xu Xilin understood, Song Lianyuan still had an old-fashioned offering table in his mind, and he couldn't contain the word "homosexual".
He stared blankly for a while, then suddenly turned to Song Lianyuan and said, "A terminal illness, can't be cured... Do you still treat me as a brother?"
Many years ago, Song Lianyuan said, "Do you still take me as a brother?" and slapped him, causing him to break up with Dou Xun. Years later, he threw this question back and found out from his rule that the ground is a prison. A tentative head.
Song Lianyuan choked.
Xu Xilin looked away and said in a low voice, "It's okay if you can't accept it. If you can't accept it, I won't be an eyesore in front of you in the future."
"Go away!" Song Lianyuan scolded him angrily.
The two were relatively speechless for a moment, Song Lianyuan took a deep breath and prepared for a long speech, but Xu Xilin interrupted him first: "I know, you want to say, even if I don't get in the way in front of you, it will always get in the way of others, I feel like I'm perverted and slept around—seriously, people have always thought this way, and I'm also quite puzzled. I've been wronged for so long, and it's nothing to sit for it. Also... No proof, no children, two people's feelings As soon as a problem occurs, it is easy to take two shots. In the future, no one will send the pension to the end. In case of hospitalization, there is no one qualified to sign for me, and there is no common property. I want to add a name to the real estate certificate. trouble."
Song Lianyuan stole everything he wanted to say, and closed his mouth depressed.
"I thought about these things ten years ago." Xu Xilin said, "I didn't want to understand, so I broke up with him... You didn't beat me."
Song Lianyuan asked angrily, "Now you want to understand?"
Xu Xilin smiled bitterly: "I can't help it now. You can stop me from smoking and drinking, but you can't stop me from liking someone unless you kill me."
Song Lianyuan's eyes flashed fiercely.
Xu Xilin said sincerely: "If you kill me, the tense will change. It can only be regarded as having liked him before his death."
The last thing he should have done in his life was that when he was vulnerable back then, he readily agreed to Dou Xun, like an immature pony, recklessly trying to cross the river, but halfway through the river, he found that it was difficult to walk ahead, and the bad water did not pass. He was overwhelmed by the wind and waves, so he had no choice but to flee in a hurry.
But as time passed, he discovered that the other side of the river was always the place where he had always been fascinated by his dreams. If he could not reach it in his lifetime, the vegetation on this side would be cluttered, and the books on human affairs would all be so lonely. What's the point
So he wanted to go again anyway.
Jianjia is pale and white dew is frost, even if you drown in the middle of the water.
Song Lianyuan thought that he was fascinated by ghosts and couldn't make sense, so he walked away in anger.
The New Year's holiday was as short as a breath, and it passed in a blink of an eye.
After the new year, Dou Xun's "there are too many things" is naturally not an excuse, and Xu Xilin's side is also in a hurry.
After the big boss Song Lianyuan broke up with him that day, he made up his mind to correct their "problem" with President Xu.
Song Heimian somehow persuaded Gao Lan, the couple stayed behind for a while, and patrolled the subsidiary company all day long. Song Lianyuan's eyes were fixed on Xu Xilin, and he wished he could find a train for him one day to save him Go out and hang out with men when you are free.
The New Year's work goal report material was even punctuated by Song Lianyuan. For fear that he would have nothing to do during the holidays, Boss Song asked someone to put Xu Xilin into the emba class that was popular with Dou Junliang and his group... Of course not from Dou Xun's school— Live like a parent who prevents students from falling in love.
Xu Xilin didn't have a chance to see Dou Xun for more than a month, and sent Dou Xun Wechat every day as if he was in a long-distance relationship with a middle school student.
Dou Xun found that he never posted about himself in the circle of friends, it was basically an automatic like machine.
Xu Xilin sent Dou Xun the content of what he did today and what he ate in the circle of friends. It seemed that the morning and evening would be saved, rain or shine. If Dou Xun said "good" one day, he would be able to do it in the afternoon. Received the same item—sometimes it was a book that was not opened in plastic, and sometimes it was a meal wrapped in a thermal insulation box. Modern logistics rescued the “puppy love boy” who was incapacitated by the control of “parents”.
Dou Xun's work focuses on projects, but he can't stay in school for nothing. It happened that an old professor broke his leg during the New Year. Dou Xun took over his syllabus and teaching tasks from elective courses. The burden is not heavy. , two class hours a week - he is responsible for open classes in large classrooms, mainly for non-major students.
Hearing about this, Xu Xilin sent a photo - it was the subject context book that Dou Xun personally drew back then. The soft and fragile printed paper cover was later preserved with a plastic cover. The paper was spotless, not even yellowed. The handwriting is vaguely like it was written yesterday, with the arrogance of his boyhood.
… Then Xu Xilin ordered a row of wax for his students.
But in fact, Dou Xun's class is not strict at all.
Students come from all over the country, and the teaching materials and policies vary greatly from place to place. In some places, the college entrance examination includes his syllabus, and in some places, there is no comprehensive science subject. Physics and chemistry students choose one exam. Most physics and chemistry students do not have high school biology. How did you learn it? Mr. Dou taught the basics of genetic engineering. Some people were bored to sleep on the table, and some people stared at him, completely ignorant.
Fortunately, the teacher is young and handsome, and the gays and lesbians escort him, and the students generally give more face. Dou Xun never made things difficult. He accurately positioned his class as an elective with boring and mixed credits. On the first day of class, he rationally listed the annual homework and exam scoring standards.
"I wanted you to bring a piece of paper for the final exam, but unfortunately, the Academic Affairs Office said that this course is not suitable for the semi-open book method and did not agree. But I will list the scope of the closed-book exam, which only accounts for 40% of the subject grades... "
A student interrupted: "Teacher, when will the range be given?"
Dou Xun used tea to moisten his throat that was not used to talking for a long time: "A week in advance - it doesn't make sense to give it to you early."
The students below burst into laughter, and they all showed the expression "Teacher, you understand very well".
I don't know if President Xu will beat his chest when he sees it, wishing he could be born ten years later.
Dou Xun finally learned to forgive fools, live in peace with a world full of mud and cynicism, and gradually stopped imposing his own standards on others.
Xu Xilin knew that the students were not easy to teach, so he pinched the time for his get out of class to end, and sent him a WeChat message in sync with the get out of class bell. Dou Xun opened it, and he was amused before he had time to leave the classroom.
Xu Xilin made a steamed bun, but he didn't know what kind of noodles to use. It was dark and made into a pig's face. Song Lianyuan was placed next to it for comparison, and he asked Dou Xun, "Does it look like it?"
Dou Xun deliberately ignored him.
Three minutes later, the message of Xu Xilin's flirting came again.
He drew a crooked candle on the pig face bun, and left a message: "I'm doing something, please get out of here, boss."
Before Dou Xun could return, Xu Xilin asked, "Wait for him to get out, can I find you?"
After posting this, Xu Xilin didn't bother and waited quietly.
He has been loved by thousands since he was a child, and only flowers and plants surround him. Even if he is with Dou Xun, it is always up to him to decide when to start and when to end.
Now he found that waiting used to be so annoying, like a shoe hanging over his head, and one had to wait for it to fall.
As soon as the phone vibrated, he became jittery, and for the first time, he was so annoyed by the endless advertising spam text messages.
Dou Xun finally returned.
Xu Xilin held his breath, stuck in his throat.
Then he saw Dou Xun say, "Come here if you're not busy."
The breath came out smoothly.
Confused, tossing and turning... Song Lianyuan was right, it was all sick.
Under the curse of Xu Xilin day after day, Song Heimian finally rolled back to the southern headquarters at the beginning of the spring. Xu Xilin sent the unsightly couple away, turned around and ran away without a minute's delay.
That night, when Dou Xun got off work, he picked up a living thing in front of his house.
