ghost lights

Gu Chi sat quietly in the corner of the playground for a whole class.At first Li Tang was watching Gu Yunan play basketball on the basketball court, but later he found that Gu Chi was here to cool off, so he also came over.

Li Tang asked: "Don't you like participating in group activities?"

Gu Chi said indifferently: "What's the point of snatching and snatching?"

Li Tang said with a smile: "We are really similar, and I don't think it's interesting. I don't know how to grab the ball when it falls into other people's hands. I still prefer to watch other people play."

Gu Chi glanced at Li Tang, and thought: I prefer to play alone.

Suddenly a ball fell in front of Li Tang, he stood up holding the ball, threw it forward vigorously, the boy who caught the ball gave him a thumbs up, and went back under the ball frame.

Li Tang sat down and said again: "But sometimes I see others playing so happily, I still can't help but give it a try."

After speaking, Li Tang made a shooting gesture.The sun shines through the leaves and falls on his fair face, and the early autumn breeze floats along his fingers across the playground and into the distance.

Li Tang's best friend is Gu Yun'an, anyone with a discerning eye can see that.Where there is Li Tang, there is Gu Yun'an, and where there is Gu Yun'an, there is Li Tang.

Over the past week, through Gu Chi's eyes, Li Shang has often seen Li Tang and Gu Yun'an walking together. Gu Chi always eats and walks alone. Even if someone talks to him, he loves them. No reason.

Gu Chi always looks towards Li Tang inadvertently, and then quickly looks away.Li Tang and Gu Yun'an are at the same table, and the two seem to have endless conversations and endless laughs.

If it weren't for the fact that Gu Chi was Li Tang's roommate, Li Tang might not have paid any more attention to him.

On Thursday night, it rained.

Gu Yunan walked in from outside the classroom, took out the umbrella in the drawer, and said to Li Tang: "It's raining outside, let's go together."

Li Tang didn't raise his head: "I still want to do the meeting questions again, you should go first."

Gu Yun'an raised his eyebrows: "You didn't bring an umbrella, how can you go back after a while?"

Li Tang smiled: "It's such a light rain, it's okay to get wet after a while, at worst, I'll run faster."

Gu Yun'an was angry: "My girlfriend didn't pick it up, it was for you, you are so ungrateful!"

Li Tang put down his pen and said helplessly: "Since you have said so, let's go, young master."

Gu Yun'an proudly said: "This is more or less the same."

Li Tang regretfully said: "You finally caught up with that girl, and you don't know how to grasp such a rare opportunity to deepen your relationship."

Gu Yun'an snorted coldly: "Isn't it because you don't have an umbrella? You owe me a big favor."

Li Tang thought to himself: He felt that when he faced Gu Yun'an, the most thing he felt was helplessness. No one would rush to make others owe him favors. He could solve things by himself, but he was always meddled by this person forcefully. kick.

But Gu Yun'an is also kind, and he can't spoil the kindness of others. He can only remember these favors first, and find opportunities to return them slowly.

Gu Chi waited until the two were far away before raising his head and looking outside the classroom. The heavy rain hit the leaves and fell to the ground with a splash.Gu Yun'an and Li Tang shared the same umbrella, and the surface of the umbrella was slightly inclined to Li Tang's side.

Gu Chi was the last one to leave the classroom, every day.Li Shang found that Gu Chi was really smart, and there were basically no problems that he didn't know.Maybe smart people are more independent, Li Shang also understood Gu Chi's unwillingness to deal with others.

The dark night, the starless sky, the rain did not weaken at all but became heavier and heavier, surrounding Gu Chi impenetrably. The rain fell on Gu Chi's body and splashed again. Under the faint street light, it seemed to be A fallen angel with a silvery white light all over his body.

Even though he was drenched, Gu Chi didn't speed up, but slowed down more and more.He raised his hand to catch the lively rain, but he always slipped away cleverly.

Li Shang thought to himself: This is probably another boy who fell into adolescence and was confused. He was also confused at the beginning. Fortunately, there is Li Tang. Li Tang is also a teacher and friend to him, making him feel that he is not alone in his struggle. After that period of time, Gu Chi didn't seem to have any good friends to share his worries with, and he could only digest anything in his heart, which was quite miserable when he thought about it.

After Li Tang finished washing, he saw Gu Chi returning to the dormitory with his whole body wet. He said worriedly, "Why are you drenched like this? Don't you have an umbrella? Dry yourself and change your clothes, or you'll have a fever again."

Knowing that Gu Chi might not be able to answer him, Li Tang finished the sentence straight away.

Gu Chi obeyed, and Li Tang had nothing to do, so he sat on his bed and watched him tidy up. In his eyes, Gu Chi was just a poor little boy who couldn't take care of himself and always abused him. He would think of his nephew, the other little pitiful, so he would naturally treat Gu Chi with snacks.

Li Shang clearly saw the distress in Li Tang's eyes, he wanted to go forward but dared not linger.In his memory, he had never seen Li Tang being so moved by anyone, even his good friends Wang Yukang and Liu Guisha, they were just dispensable.

Li Shang pondered for a while and came to a conclusion that maybe Li Tang at this age has not experienced any social blows, which is why he is so enthusiastic and straightforward.

When Gu Chi was changing his clothes, Li Tang clearly saw that he had many injuries, and other people in the dormitory also saw it.

One person asked, "Gu Chi, who did you fight with? Why do you look so miserable?"

The man leaned closer to Gu Chi while talking, wanting to take a closer look at those scars.Gu Chi quickly wiped off the water on his body, put on a short sleeve, and ignored him.

Others originally wanted to go over to have a look, but they gave up when they saw Gu Chi's indifferent attitude that he didn't want to explain at all.

The boy was dissatisfied and said: "Cut, what is so awesome, it's like a two-fifth to eighty-thousand every day!"

His voice was not too low, and the five people in the dormitory could hear it.But even so, Gu Chi didn't respond.

Gu Chi's attitude really easily offended others, and many people complained about him.

Li Tang said: "He's just not good at communicating with us, don't be angry, I have biscuits here, would you like some?"

The boy quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't trick me, I can't stand your sweet biscuits, keep them for yourself."

Li Tang was amused by the boys, he just loves to eat sweets, but other people think that only girls eat this kind of food, after one bite, they dare not take a second bite, which saves Li Tang a lot of trouble. Eat less snacks.

"Forget it if you don't eat, how about you? Do you want to eat?"

Li Tang looked at the others again, and still got the same reaction.Although he would be rejected every time, Li Tang would still greet everyone politely.

"Gu Chi, do you want it?"

Gu Chi glanced at Li Tang lightly, then glanced at the strawberry-flavored sandwich biscuit Li Tang held in his hand, took the tooth jar and went out without saying a word.

The boy on the upper bunk in Litang said disdainfully: "Litang, you are kind, you know you will run into a wall, but you insist on moving up."

"That's right, that's right, you see, he pretends to be the only one in the world all day long, and he will be struck by lightning sooner or later!"

"It's been almost a month since school started, and he hasn't said a word to me. He really thinks he's the emperor, it's hard to say!"

Li Tang listened to the complaints of several people, and said softly: "He may have some shadows in his heart, we should be more considerate of him, try not to say these words in front of him, you have also seen the injuries on his body just now, He didn't want to explain to us. Naturally, he had some concerns. We are in the same dormitory, so we should care about each other more, right? Looking back on how he once saved a boy who went astray, it was something worth remembering thing!"

One person said impatiently: "Sleep and sleep, ghosts should care about him!"

Li Tang smiled, although what he said was very unpleasant, but he knew that the other party took his words to heart, after all, they are not all a group of young men with sharp mouths and bean curd hearts, they are very coaxing.

As soon as the school bell rang, the students who couldn't sit still for a long time rushed out of the classroom with their schoolbags.

Gu Yun'an patted Li Tang's shoulder with a bright face: "Would you like to go out for dinner together? I'll treat you."

Li Tang said: "No, my dad is picking me up outside, he won't let me run around."

Gu Yun'an curled her lips: "What age is it, and you are still so strict."

Li Tang sighed: "I can't help it, I don't want to do this either, he didn't care about me before."

Gu Yun'an and Li Tang left side by side, and there were only a few people left in the classroom.Gu Chi didn't get home until after dark. He walked home, but no one came to pick him up. His home was quite far away, and he walked for more than two hours.

Li Shang looked at the rather luxurious building in front of him, and never expected that Gu Chi lived in such a nice place.

There was no one in the house, so Gu Chi returned to the room, put down his schoolbag, and lay down on the bed.Later, I was very hungry, so I got up and made some food by myself, and went back to bed to lie down after eating.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Li Shang felt like a century had passed.

Suddenly, Gu Chi moved. He got out of bed and took out an old photo from the drawer.Above are three five or six-year-old children, with their shoulders crossed and their hands on their hips, standing on an inflatable castle, smiling happily.

Li Shang's eyes widened suddenly, he actually saw Li Tang!Li Tang's mother also has a picture of this picture!

This is a photo taken when Li Tang and his sister went to the playground to play together. The other two children are siblings. At that time, Li Tang was playing alone. The little girl saw it, and the little girl insisted on pulling Li Tang to play together. , and then left this photo, this is really fate.

Gu Chi stared blankly for a long time, then put the photo back in the drawer.

In the afternoon of the next day, someone finally came back from the house. Gu Chi was reading a book in his room and didn't even lift his head when he heard the voice.

After a while, the door was opened.

"Have you eaten yet?" came the voice of a middle-aged man.

"Yeah." Gu Chi still didn't look up.

The man stood for a while, then gently closed the door and left.

When Li Shang saw Gu Chi's clenched fists, he could also feel the pain in his palms. Gu Chi didn't seem to like this man, and even hated him very much.

For two days, Gu Chi didn't go anywhere, and stayed in the room to read and study. Except when he was hungry, he would go downstairs to cook, or go to the bathroom, and basically never left the room.

Li Shang gave Gu Chi several definitions in his mind: he is a nerd at home.

Then the man came again and put 500 yuan on the table.Other than that, Li Shang didn't see anyone else, nor heard any other voices.This kind of life is really depressing, he even began to miss the sound of his classmates reading in school.It's okay even if there's a dog barking.

As the days passed so plainly, the relationship between Li Tang and Gu Yun'an only increased, and many people envied their steely friendship.

Li Shang also finally knew how Gu Chi got his injuries.Because of Gu Chi's unreasonable personality, he inadvertently provoked a few people who shouldn't be provoked. Every time they hit a wall with Gu Chi, they would drag him to the no-man's land of the school and beat him up. Seeing that Gu Chi didn't dare to complain, he beat him hard.This has nothing to do with Li Shang, but he is in pain, and when he is in pain, he is prone to resentment, resentment against Gu Chi, who obviously has a mine at home, so it must be this kind of virtue.

No one knew about Gu Chi's beating, because those people only slapped his body, not his face.But he was discovered by the careful Li Tang. Li Tang asked him how he did it, but Gu Chi kept silent.Li Tang had no choice but to buy some medicine for him, and didn't ask any more questions.

In the blink of an eye, New Year's Day is coming. People in other classes are discussing what to do on New Year's Day to make it more fun. Only the fifth class where Li Tang is in is covered with dark clouds. During class, the teacher can feel the heavy resentment from the students.

All this is because of a sentence from the head teacher: This New Year's party will not be held in our class. You are already in the second year of high school. If you don't work hard, how will you get into 985, 211?I am doing it for your own good. You may not understand it now, but you will know my hard work in the future.

"Do you want to hold a New Year's Eve party?" Gu Yun'an lay on the table, looking at Li Tang who was doing a question.

"Of course I want to. It's so interesting to have a party, but the teacher won't allow it." Li Tang's face was full of hope, but suddenly he was downcast.

"You don't care what his old scalper does, we can do it if we want to do it. When the time comes, the table is pulled and the ribbon is hung up, and he just refuses to do it." Gu Yun'an said disdainfully.

They changed seats last week, Li Tang and Gu Yun'an were still at the same table, they sat in the penultimate row, Gu Chi was behind them, so they could hear their words clearly.

"How can that be? The teacher will be angry." Li Tang said.

"Why not, so what if he's angry, it's best to piss him off! Every day I know how to squeeze out our rest time, so I want to be angry with him!" Gu Yun'an said angrily.

"You won't come for real, will you?" Li Tang was startled.

Gu Yun'an chuckled, and said, "Don't worry about it, the Shanren have their own tricks."

There is still a week before New Year's Day. That night, Gu Yun'an took advantage of the homeroom teacher to go home, stood on the podium, and gave a speech with great emotion, asking the students to prepare for the show. He was responsible for the snacks and decorations. The New Year's Day party proceed as usual.When the people below heard it, they danced excitedly and whispered to each other, discussing which program should be performed.Gu Yun'an came down from the podium like a proud big rooster, Li Tang couldn't help admiring his courage.
