Pavlov's dog

The sky is reddish, a rare sight.Fang Wei was lying on the ground with the stone on his back, his heaving chest had gradually subsided.He didn't even think about these stabbing words at first, but he can blurt them out today.He finally dared to look directly at Zhou Ruiyun, and the other party was uncharacteristically lying on top of him with loose eyes.

Fang Wei met his eyes, and the two stared at each other silently, even the cicadas singing in the surrounding grass became weaker.

Zhou Ruiyun didn't speak any more, he seemed like a hedgehog whose thorns had been broken suddenly, unable to make any attacks.Fang Wei was looking at him calmly, no longer flustered, as if he was no longer shaken by his orders or words.For a moment, Zhou Ruiyun felt that he was so ugly, so ugly that it was pathetic.

"It's good." He heard himself say that, the meaning was unclear.

Fang Wei stared at him, his whole body stretched into a line that never let up.Zhou Ruiyun really wanted to cover his eyes.

"It's really good, at least I finally see how unworthy of my liking you are." Fang Wei retorted.

I also wanted to shut his mouth.

But Zhou Ruiyun can't do anything, when you can no longer manipulate another person, you are helpless.

Zhou Ruiyun stood up from him, seeming to want to laugh, but only made a strange expression.

The leaves rustled, and the insects chirped again.Zhou Ruiyun left first, while Fang Weiyi was lying on the ground.There was still pain on the tip of his tongue, and he bit his tongue to restrain the man's influence on him.At least it was a success.

Does it count?Fang Wei himself didn't know.Because the body trembled slightly, every stroke of the other party on his body left a deep imprint, and he was screaming hotly at this time.He curled up slowly, not knowing when those marks and bruises would disappear.

Fang Wei used the corner of his eye to follow a figure condensed into dots, and Zhou Ruiyun was about to disappear from sight, and he never looked back.

The hospital was not short of popularity at any time. Xie Heng bandaged his wounds and went out with Tan Xiyuan, muttering about being hungry, but Tan Xiyuan didn't say anything, took off his coat and put it on his hand, and walked to the front of the car.Xie Heng followed, chattering unceasingly: "I haven't eaten much all day, alas, I also exhausted my energy, hungry and tired."

"Then why are you following me?" Tan Xiyuan finally paid attention to him, turned around and asked.

Xie Heng almost flicked the non-existent tail: "I'm begging for a meal with you."

"I still have work to do." Tan Xiyuan said, "You can find someone to eat with you."

Xie Heng's face drooped: "Arms hurt, legs hurt, I can't drive, please do me a favor and take me to dinner."

With his thick skin, he was quite difficult to deal with, so Tan Xiyuan had no choice but to let him into the car.

Xie Heng is going to the waterfront restaurant by the river. It is a good sight to watch, but the taste is average.Tan Xiyuan did not know which switch he had figured out, and his wish was granted.

The neon lights are reflected on the sparkling water, and the scenery is pleasant, and there are couples walking, talking, eating and chatting everywhere.Tan Xiyuan didn't take a few bites, Xie Heng observed his words and said, "I'm in a bad mood? Because I delayed your work?"

"I'll pay when I'm full." Tan Xiyuan replied with an irrelevant sentence.

Xie Heng suddenly lost his appetite.After finishing their meal, the two walked towards the parking lot by the river, the atmosphere was gloomy.Xie Heng racked his brains and couldn't figure out where he had offended Tan Xiyuan—and judging from the current situation, it was not as simple as being annoying.

He caught up with Tan Xiyuan who was walking in front, and asked softly, "Did something happen to your family again? Stepfather or younger brother?"

They had only known each other not long ago, but Xie Heng already understood what kind of family burden Tan Xiyuan was carrying.

"The meal just now counts as my thank you for your help during this period of time. My stepfather was hospitalized and you were the doctor, and there was also the matter of Zhuang Yue's admission to A University, although he didn't in the end." Tan Xiyuan suddenly stood still, Xie Heng didn't After realizing it and almost bumping into it, Tan Xiyuan said, "Thank you very much."

"Why are you saying this all of a sudden?" Xie Heng smiled dryly, accidentally pulled the wound on the corner of his mouth, and his face twisted.

"One meal may not be enough to thank you, but that's all I can do." Tan Xiyuan said with a gentle expression, "That's the end of it."

Xie Heng is not stupid, he could hear something: "Are you going to break up with me?"

Tan Xiyuan seemed to be taken aback for a moment.

Xie Heng was a little resentful: "No wonder you didn't answer the calls or answer the messages these two days. It turned out that you wanted to deal with me coldly. No, the relationship has finally progressed a bit. Why are you backing away?"

Tan Xiyuan stared at him and grabbed his arm, motioning for him to let go: "Are we together?"

"What do you mean?" This time it was Xie Heng's turn to be stunned.

Tan Xiyuan waved his hand: "Why do you think so?"

"Last time I kissed you, you didn't refuse..."

"Are you someone who just kisses someone and thinks they're in a relationship?"

Xie Heng was caught off guard by his sudden question: "So it doesn't count?"

Tan Xiyuan just looked at him calmly, Xie Heng hated his calm demeanor for the first time.

"Then what do you mean now?" After a few seconds, Xie Heng laughed at himself.

"I don't have time or energy to play with you." Tan Xiyuan said bluntly.

"You have said this sentence many times." Xie Heng disagreed, "Didn't you still play with me until now?"

Tan Xiyuan knew how difficult he was, so he didn't plan to hide it from him: "I ran into your mother a few days ago."

How could Xie Heng not understand the point, and immediately frowned: "What did she tell you?"

"You should have said everything you can think of. You escaped the blind date she arranged for you,"

"Don't listen to her." Xie Heng waved his hand, "She likes to meddle in other people's business, she's so annoying."

"Then can you settle it? Can you defy the family and ensure that my work and family will not be disturbed?" Tan Xiyuan did not turn around. Xie mother's words concealed knives and threats hidden in every word. He understood it, so naturally he didn't Will joke about his family and future.

It was the first time Xie Heng encountered such a straightforward person, and his voice fell silent for a while.Tan Xiyuan smiled knowingly: "Look, we..."

"This is between you and me. It's just a relationship. What can my mother do to you?" Xie Heng interrupted him, "Believe me, it's not a big deal at all."

"Our lives have never been the same." Tan Xiyuan suppressed his smile and shook his head slightly. He has been able to deal with Xie Heng for so long, which proves that he is not tired of this kind of people, but when it involves his future and family, he will He cut off this relationship without hesitation, "You just need to eat, drink, have fun, and be happy, but I am not, falling in love is not the whole of my life, I have many more important things than this."

"But everyone has to fall in love." Xie Heng didn't understand Tan Xiyuan's worries at all. Like Fang Weiyi, he never learned to empathize with others since he was a child.

"We are not on the same channel." Tan Xiyuan gave up talking, "In short, my hope ends here, thank you..."

"No, can't we solve any problems? Why do you insist on beating him to death with a stick?" Xie Heng was furious.

Tan Xiyuan was helpless: "I'm just expressing my attitude, and I don't want you to spend unnecessary effort on me."

Xie Heng obviously couldn't listen: "I've done so much during this period, so you're not at all moved?"

Tan Xiyuan shook his head lightly.He has always been so calm, or indifferent.This is how his ex-girlfriend who has been with him for many years commented on him.When we broke up, we could sit face to face and say goodbye to her slowly and softly.

Xie Heng opened his mouth, but was speechless.After Tan Xiyuan finished speaking, he didn't intend to make any more entanglements, so he turned around and was about to leave.

Xie Heng was in a hurry: "Why are you leaving? You insist on not giving me a chance. Believe it or not, I am now..." He looked around, and said indiscriminately, "Believe it or not, I will jump into the river for you to see."

Tan Xiyuan was almost amused by him, and his footsteps stopped, Xie Heng's joy had not yet appeared on his brows, and Tan Xiyuan continued walking without looking back.

"Fuck, I really jumped!" Xie Heng shouted.

Tan Xiyuan ignored him, walked two steps but heard a plop behind him, and a girl's shout from afar.

"Someone jumped into the river—"

Tan Xiyuan turned around immediately, Xie Heng was no longer on the road, he ran back to the original place, only to see ripples on the river next to him.

"Xie Heng! How old are you?" Tan Xiyuan shouted towards the river.

There was no echo from below.Tan Xiyuan was so angry that he wanted to laugh, Xie Hengshui was good at nature, he wasn't worried at first, but considering that the other party was wounded, he had no choice but to continue shouting: "Can you come up first?"

Still no response.

Someone behind has noticed the situation here and is looking for someone to come to the rescue.Tan Xiyuan was convinced: "Come up, stop making trouble."

"No." Suddenly a wet head appeared on the water.

Tan Xiyuan was startled, Xie Heng's head popped out at his feet, he wiped his hair and repeated: "I won't come up."

"Then I'll get someone to bring you up, do you want to make trouble with the police and reporters?" Tan Xiyuan knelt down and held out his hand to him, "Come up, you still have injuries on your body, the water is dirty, and you'll get inflamed later ..."

With another plop, Tan Xiyuan was suddenly dragged into the icy water.Xie Heng laughed heartlessly at the side.

"Is it fun?" Tan Xiyuan got used to it for a while, and his tone became bad.

Xie Heng tugged his hand in the water: "It's fun."

Tan Xiyuan lost his temper after being played by him.

On the bank of the river away from the crowd, Tan Xiyuan said a few words, causing the kind-hearted people who came anxiously to disperse.Two wet people lay on the bank looking at the moon.

"Don't go crazy next time." Tan Xiyuan was weak.

"I like swimming." Xie Heng said without beginning or end.

"Swimming or jumping into a river?" Tan Xiyuan stabbed.

Xie Heng didn't care, turned his body sideways and asked, "Don't be angry, I'm all here to keep you."

Tan Xiyuan expressed his disapproval, but didn't say anything more.Xie Heng is so crazy, he seems to have no scruples, he does whatever he thinks of, this kind of person is simply a lunatic, and it is two extremes with a well-behaved person like Tan Xiyuan.

But extremes attract each other.

"I really like swimming." Xie Heng looked at Tan Xiyuan, in fact, he vaguely knew his concerns, it was nothing more than that Xie's mother gave him pressure and made him not want to take risks with himself.

Tan Xiyuan didn't understand: "What?"

"But my mother thinks being an athlete is too tiring. Being born in such a family, why bother?" Xie Heng put his hands behind his head, his hair was wet on his face, and his eyes were bright, "So I didn't learn to swim anymore. .”

This is something he never told anyone, not even Fang Wei.He can't learn to learn, but he is good at swimming. He has put in countless efforts for this, but he can't stand against Xie's mother.

Tan Xiyuan didn't know what to say: "Well, what then?"

"No more." Xie Heng laughed, looking up at the sky with long-distance eyes, "And you know, actually my name is Xie Heng."

"What?" Tan Xiyuan didn't keep up with the rhythm of the topic.

"My name was Xie Zhaochen when I was young. I thought the word Zhao was very cute, so I changed my name later."

so what?Tan Xiyuan didn't want to understand the connection in his few words for a while.

"Isn't a name very important to a person? I can change my own name, so of course I can find control of my own life." Xie Heng said, "I think so."

Not really.He never fought against his parents, so he gave up swimming, and now he will continue to give up his right to choose who to fall in love with?

Tan Xiyuan understood a little, and couldn't help laughing: "So I was a victim in the struggle between you and your mother?"

Xie Heng turned around, kissed him affectionately, his eyes were as bright as stars, and he exhaled a burst of gentle heat.

"Of course not, you are my trophy."
