I wait for you to see through the scenery

As a result, Zhou Yao was really sitting on wax this day, making Zhou Yao completely restless and at a loss, because he waited for a quarter of an hour in the small black room in the toilet of the karaoke hall, with mixed smells in his breath, and he was stunned that he didn't wait for Qu Jia.

Qu Jia didn't come to look for him, as if he didn't want to whisper to him.

Finally, Zhou Yao raised his eyebrows in embarrassment, and walked back silently. The group of people were still sitting and chatting, and Qu Jia didn't move at all.The night was getting late, and many guests were in high spirits. They took turns singing karaoke on the stage, crying and roaring.

"Oh my god, what the guest sang just now..." Waiter No. [-] whispered disgusted, "I've heard enough, I want to plug my own ears."

"You should go up and gag that man!" Zhou Chuncheng also shook his head, holding the two pretty girls who were drinking with him.

Qu Jia's eyes kept wandering, scattered on the coffee table, not looking at Zhou Yao's uncle, not wanting to see the scene of cuddling.

Zhou Yao kept sneaking glances.He was actually very familiar with this face within a few feet, the narrow eyes and thin lips hadn't changed at all, and the expression was still the same stinking virtue.Qu Jia's original small mole in the corner of his right eye seemed to be gone, which surprised him, and there was a small pit in the corner of his eye.The face of a half-grown boy, everyone is full of pits anyway, they are all pimples that have been picked randomly.

The manager and Zhou Chuncheng continued to chat, drinking drinks, talking about interesting places in Beijing and which karaoke bars have well-known band musicians.The waiter No. [-] next to him had permed and dyed yellow hair, and eyeliner was drawn at the corner of his eyes. He had been standing all the time before, but now he also moved a stool to sit beside him.

Qu Jia's legs were spread apart. Huangmao No. [-] bent his legs and touched Qu Jia's knees when he sat down. Qu Jia took his legs away without raising his eyes, and put his left leg across his right.

The manager gave the waiter a wink and then turned his head. A table of people started playing cards and chatting, playing a colorful four-person upgrade, just to kill time.During this period, waiter No. [-] kept glancing at Qu Jia, looking for something to say: "Jia—if you come every night, it will be great, we have songs to listen to, and we don't want to hear these ghost calls."

"Listen to the tape." Qu Jia said.

"The tape doesn't sound as good as you." Waiter No. [-] laughed, "The tape doesn't have long legs!"

"Ahem, it's really embarrassing." Waiter No. [-] couldn't take it anymore, with a look of disgust, "Sister Bai, you can do it."

Zhou Yao: "..."

Qu Jia glanced at No. [-]: "I see you can't sing."

No. [-] is not in a hurry or annoyed, and has a very good temper: "Don't watch me sing, I'll just watch you sing. It's no big deal, I usually just look at my face and legs."

The singing lady understood and laughed out loud, whoops.

"Who are you looking at?" Qu Jia said coldly, "Gouged out your eyes."

"Don't dig it out, his eyes are already narrow." Waiter No. [-] laughed.

"I'll help him dig out the holes in his eyes," Qu Jia said.

"Hey, can you help me make the planer bigger? Come on." No. [-] was really unambiguous, with rough flesh and thick skin, so he acted coquettishly on the spot.

Whoops, even the manager laughed so hard this time, it's a big deal.

Zhou Yao frowned, upset, and the cards in his hand "cracked" so much that he killed the waiter No. [-] sitting opposite him.

The waiter No. [-] immediately expressed resentment: "Ah, why are you killing me, brother? We are on the same side! You should kill the other two, who should you kill?"

Zhou Yao pursed his lips: "Otherwise, if you two change seats, I'll end up with that one."

"Brother, do you know how to play..." Waiter No. [-] muttered.

"I know how to play." Zhou Yao was too good at playing cards, and said in his heart that I just wanted to kill you, because you are not pleasing to the eye.

He had never been to this kind of place before, and he had seen the world today.Qu Jia has been playing cards and ignored him until now. He is always wronged in his heart, and he also looks aggrieved, so he is very panicked.

He didn't understand some dirty jokes the first time, he was very slow, and he still didn't understand the meaning afterwards, it was just uncomfortable.The No. [-] waiter didn't mean anything malicious, it was just a verbal tease.The little brother has dyed yellow hair, wears pure white jeans, and has a stud on one ear... If Zhou Yao knows certain groups well enough, he will realize that the number one waiter should actually be called a waiter Zero.Her first name is Bai, so acquaintances call her "Sister Bai".

Then their pair lost as they wished, and they should be fined for drinking if they lose.

There were seven or eight glasses of fruit juice flavored wine on the table, and the fine wine was also colorful, and a tricky note was pasted under one of the glasses.

Brother Bai took a cup and drank it dry. He turned over the bottom of the cup and saw that there was nothing there, and he was grinning.

Uncle Zhou Yao said beside him, "Yaoyao, you don't need to drink anymore", Zhou Yao was also unambiguous, just picked up a glass and killed it, who is afraid of anyone?

Then he turned over the bottom of the cup and took a look, I—fuck—I was so scared——

He was hit.The moment the small note at the bottom of the cup appeared, Qu Jia finally raised his head and frowned obviously, thinking that Zhou Yao was so stupid, why did he just take that glass of wine?

"What's that written?...'Sit on your partner's lap and pinch your tits'! Hahahaha—"

This is a set of meaty tricks played in the dance hall.When playing cards, do you go up and down against your companions? There are often men and women, and there are also ladies who accompany the wine and sing in a circle, and they like to engage in this kind of boring game of taking advantage of the opportunity.

Zhou Yao was so depressed that he lost all expression, and lay down on the coffee table for a few seconds covering his face.

Who is his companion at the poker table?Is it the waiter No. [-] brother, who is trembling with laughter, waiting for him to play, kiss and hug.

Zhou Chuncheng acted like an uncle, and hurriedly made a rescue: "Yaoyao won't come anymore, it's okay, we are pure children, let others pinch them!"

Brother Bai smiled: "Don't forget it, you sit on my lap, I'm not afraid of being pinched, so come here as you like."

Zhou Yao said stubbornly: "I'll still punish you with a bar. I'm not afraid of drinking, and I don't touch others."

There was booing around, and even the guests sitting next to him and watching the excitement said: "Oh no, I have to touch it, I would like to accept the bet!"

Zhou Yao said very manly: "I drank the whole table, it's my punishment, is it done?"

He picked up the second cup and finished it again.When he wanted to take the third cup, he pressed his cup directly with one hand. "Stop drinking." Qu Jia said, "Don't listen to their nonsense."

"Oh, the handsome guy won't pinch me anymore?" Brother Bai may be itchy all over, but he still wants to say more.

"Who do you want to pinch?" Qu Jia glanced at that person, "He is still a student, if you don't play like that, you don't want to do that."

"Aren't you a student too?" Brother Bai said.

"Can someone be the same as me?" Qu Jia said.

"Then let me pinch you, okay?" Brother Bai laughed.

"Come here, if you have the ability, sit up and pinch one." Qu Jia crossed one leg, still with that expression of indignation, "Where did you pinch, I will pinch it back for you."

Everyone at the table laughed, and Brother Bai himself laughed too, waving his hand: "Hey, don't be so mean to me all the time, it's scary...just kidding."

Qu Jia didn't ask for anyone's opinion after that, just moved the stool and changed places with brother No. [-], and told brother Bai to roll away obediently with his eyes.Qu Jia sat down opposite Zhou Yao without hesitation, and the two got together.

Zhou Yao suddenly felt happy and relieved. He glanced at Qu Jia several times, and everything was kept silent.

The emotions and patterns of playing cards are also on the right track. He touched a lot of cards all the way, and from time to time he threw a big cat, kitten and "2" of various colors, which made his tablemate mad.

"Ah, you touched all 2?!" Brother Bai said, "What else can we play?"

"The 2's have been touched by you alone." Qu Jia closed the cards helplessly, not wanting to look at them, "What else do you want me to play?"

The two looked at each other across the table, this seemed to be the first serious and complete sentence that Qu Jia said to Zhou Yao tonight.

"You just play cards with me," Zhou Yao smiled at Qu Jia, "You play whatever I play!"

Qu Jia put Erlang's legs down and stretched them under the coffee table, and they touched the other pair of legs, and they crossed directly.

Zhou Yao raised his eyes when he was touched, and Qu Jia also raised his eyes. His eyes were intertwined and confused, and he quickly retracted his legs silently.

The two paired to play poker is to advance all the way, winning most of the time, killing the other pair.Zhou Chuncheng, who was watching the game, never forgot to show off: "My nephew is smart, right? You don't know, he keeps all the cards at your table. I usually play cards blindly and never count. He still counts when we play far away, so He always wins!"

Qu Jia quietly glanced at Zhou Yao several times.

Zhou Yao is very smart.People who are good at mathematics have the habit of playing cards, memorizing and counting cards subconsciously.He kept counting what came out in each round, what was left in each person's hand, and how many masters were left.

He commanded Qu Jia from time to time: "Let's make a decision, let me be the master."

Qu Jia looked hopeless, and picked up a pile of discarded cards in his hand: "I have no owner."

Zhou Yao: "Are you lost?"

Qu Jia laughed angrily: "How can I have an owner? I only touched two cards in total."

Zhou Yao also laughed: "So poor!"

Qu Jia felt aggrieved once in a while: "Fuck, you touched a bunch of 2s, and I touched a bunch of 3s. I have all 345s in my hand. Which one do you name?"

Zhou Yao said with a smile: "Your position is not good, why don't we change seats? I sit on the stool and you sit on the sofa."

Qu Jia immediately lowered his eyes: "Sit on the sofa."

The waiter at the other side lost several rounds, was fined with wine and drank water, and went to the toilet.Only then did Uncle Zhou Yao raise his eyes and gossip: "What's the name of that child just now, Sister Bai?...You speak in a weird way, Erweizi?"

"Actually, he is quite a nice person, with a good personality, is he that kind of person?" The manager gave an ambiguous wink.Discriminatory terms are used in society for alternative groups with special sexual orientation.

They don't even call him "homosexual", they just say Erweizi, neither male nor female, hooligan, and dishonest.

"How old is the child, and the family doesn't care?" Zhou Chuncheng frowned and said, "This kind of child is not cleaned up, and it will be broken after a beating."

"Who can control the family? They are so old, and they are all 'Bei Piao' who have come out to mix with the society." The manager pointed with his chin, "He is ten years older than Qu Jia, and he is 26. How can he get back? "

"Yo, 26?" Zhou Chuncheng was also surprised, "I really didn't see it, it looks younger than anyone else."

Whenever the topic fell on Qu Jia's head, he would feel very uncomfortable when he looked at him and commented. He turned his face away and did not want to look at the person, and his lips were tightly closed.To say that a student "is no longer like a student" implies a very negative implication, that is, he is mature, social, and not so pure and serious... What did he do to stop being like a student?

It was also uncomfortable for Zhou Yao to hear his second uncle say those words.It's just that with his experience and knowledge at the time, he didn't understand at all, and he didn't understand why he felt uncomfortable.

They are about to close the booth, and they will play the last round.Sometimes it's troublesome to be too lucky. They need to score points in this round. As a result, Zhou Yao has drawn a handful of masters again, and he can't play any cards.

The two opponents finally won a round with great difficulty, and scored a lot of points, so proud of themselves.

The loser wanted to drink, Zhou Yao was about to reach out, but Qu Jia held down the cup again: "Let me drink."

Qu Jia looked at him: "Aren't you strong-handed? Choose which cup I'll drink."

A row of wine glasses are full of blended fruit wine, with color, and it is not clear which glass has the color head stuck to the bottom of the glass.

Zhou Yao looked at it carefully, and pointed to one of the cups, he won't be tricked this time.

"This?" Qu Jia looked at him.

"This is the cup, open it!" Zhou Yao Bei'er said confidently.

Qu Jia picked it up and did it, and then used it as a table.

A small note that makes people want to die is quietly pasted on the bottom of the cup.

"You have really strong hands." Qu Jia cursed in a low voice.

Zhou Yao knocked directly on the coffee table, feeling very sorry for Jiajia.ah……

Brother Bai peeled off the small note excitedly, and read aloud: "Companion, feed you a delicious big banana! Brackets, you can also feed lollipops, hahaha..."

Some people around let out vulgar laughter.

Qu Jia was expressionless, but Zhou Yao's face immediately turned red.

This is another full-color game in the bar. The method of playing can be meat or vegetables, depending on the needs of the people present.If it’s plain playing, is it just feeding a banana from the fruit plate? If it’s in the private room, closing the door and playing with meat, it’s a different scene.

Uncle Zhou Yao frowned and smiled: "Okay, we should go too, don't care what it gets, don't feed it."

Qu Jia stared at Zhou Yao, maybe he was in a trance at that time. In this world, do I only know you, Zhou Yao? ...I can't even hide from you, and it will always be you who dangles around.

Uncle Zhou Yao felt something in his heart, glanced at the two of them, and asked in a low voice, "Yaoyao...you two know each other?"

"No." Zhou Yao lowered his eyes.

"Then let's go?" Zhou Chuncheng wondered.

"Why don't you come? I've got it." Zhou Yao suffocated in his heart, very stubborn.

He pulled out the biggest banana from the fruit plate, peeled it open and bit it in one bite. He bit off half of it first, chewed it hard, and swallowed it with great effort, then looked at Qu Jia.

I'll feed you, do you want to eat?

Then half a banana was handed to Qu Jia's mouth, and Zhou Yao held it up to feed him.

Qu Jia looked at him, didn't take it with his hands, opened his mouth silently, and swallowed.

The banana was really big, both of them were poked in the throat, and the eye sockets were sore, and they couldn't tell, they chewed and swallowed with their necks stuck.

……

Zhou Yao's uncle must have figured it out later, when he was standing at the entrance of the karaoke hall, his feet shook, and he turned around and said, "Yaoyao, you and the kid who sings, do you know each other? Where have you seen him?"

"Did we just meet each other after playing cards?" Zhou Yao categorically denied, "Uncle, you've been drinking so much that your eyes are blurred. You can still drive like this? Otherwise, we'll take the bus."

He took advantage of the time when his uncle was picking up and reversing the car in the parking lot, and walked around to the alley next to "Jiejie", the side entrance of the disco.He just wanted to say a few words, but he hasn't said a word for a long time, why is it so difficult?

The street lamp cast a yellow halo in the alley, and the moths danced wildly, rushing towards the most dazzling light.

Qu Jia was just talking to a few acquaintances, nodding goodbye.

"Are you going to sing again next week?" the band member asked.

"School is about to start." Qu Jia said, "I won't come here yet."

"Sure, then I'll tell Brother Gang, come over when you're free, contact me at any time, let's go together." The other party patted Qu Jia on the shoulder, clenched his hands and fisted.

Qu Jia nodded, carrying the guitar case on his back, turned and walked.

Walking is still sloping, sticking to the wall, it is the same as when I was a child, it has not changed.

Zhou Yao immediately flashed out from the alley wall, and called out very carefully and gently: "Qu Jia."

The two of them were leaning against a wall, at least ten meters away from each other, facing each other across an alley aisle.Zhou Yao said helplessly: "Look, if we were a little further apart, we would be able to run a relay in between, what are you doing?"

"..." Qu Jia murmured, "You, are you back?"

Zhou Yao: "Well, I'm back."

Qu Jia: "When did you come back?"

Zhou Yao said: "It's been two weeks since I came back. I have been to the place where your family used to live, as well as our elementary school, to see the teachers and find out where you moved, but I have been unable to find you."

Qu Jia asked: "Are you coming back for summer vacation?"

Zhou Yao said, "I'm going back to Beijing to go to school."

"..." Qu Jia's eyes moved very slowly, very slowly, as if crawling slowly and hard from a distant memory towards reality, looking up and down the white shirt and beige trousers worn by Zhou Yao, "Then, are you still going?" ?”

"Why don't you go!" Zhou Yao hurriedly said, "I still have to go to school. My student status has been transferred, so I have to go to school here now."

The heavy pace in Qu Jia's mind finally broke down on this sentence and got stuck.You said you were not leaving.

Qu Jia's eyes were a little dazed at that time, and he was a slow and slow person emotionally. He was indeed not as quick-changing as Zhou Yao. I can mix, and I am happy no matter where I go, and I am happy with the situation.

Qu Jia is really not that kind of person.He can't slow down.

"Did you also go to the concert that day?" Qu Jia put on a cigarette, spoke in a vague voice, and suddenly raised his head to stare at Zhou Yao. This moment seemed like a lifetime away.

"Ah." Zhou Yao said.

"At the end of the Gongti concert that day, I was in the aisle, in the dark, and I saw a person. The outline was very similar to you, as I imagined in my mind, what you can grow into now, and also wearing a White shirt... I was confused at the time, and thought it was impossible, you were still studying in Harbin... So, it was really you."

"..."

Zhou Yao's eyes were sore at that moment, he took a few steps forward, and forced a smile: "I saw you at the time, and I felt like I recognized you, it must be you."

Qu Jia looked at him, and it was finally confirmed at this moment that Zhou Yao was back.

"Don't smoke so much, it's bad for your health." Zhou Yao subconsciously wanted to get rid of the opponent's problem.

"Why do you smoke too?" Qu Jia said, moving his trouser pocket, "I won't give you the half bag, so you don't have to smoke."

"What I don't usually have is 'friend cigarettes'. I went to school this morning to find a teacher, and I met Zhai Xiaobing on the way! Do you remember him? The two of us bought a pack of cigarettes and smoked a few while eating. root." Zhou Yao explained with a smile.

Many of their children still live near the compound of the machine tool factory. They are all in Chaoyang District, very close to each other, and they often meet acquaintances when they go out.At the entrance of the supermarket, he bumped into Zhai Xiaobing who was carrying mineral water to the van.The short and thin monkey-like figure hadn't changed at all, and Zhou Yao recognized him at a glance and grabbed hold of him.The old classmates met each other, with tears in their eyes, they hugged each other affectionately in the street...

Zhai Xiaobing was very happy to invite Zhou Yao to have dinner in the restaurant, reminiscing about the old days with warm feelings.They also chatted about the current situation of several acquainted classmates, and actively exchanged contact information with each other, and how to be together after meeting.

Zhai Xiaobing is so warm to him, he and Zhai Xiaobing can hug each other warmly, they are just ordinary classmates.

But standing several meters away from Qu Jia, they suddenly become very distant, and deliberately dare not touch each other.

On the cigarette that Qu Jia held in his mouth, there was a note written by Zhou Yao rolled up, with two lines of trembling wavy lines, and Zhou Yao's usual playful and coquettish pattern since he was a child.

Qu Jia lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and watched the heart-scratching note slowly burn out in his palm.

"How bad is it for your voice? From Qi Qin to Zhao Chuan, you are almost smoked!" Zhou Yao stood close, and asked in a low voice, "Did you start smoking in junior high school?"

Qu Jia looked at him and said, "From the day after you left."
