When it was almost evening, another stylishly dressed boy came to the dormitory.On his feet were high-top canvas shoes co-branded by a certain famous brand, and he was wearing a baseball cap backwards. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, chewing gum, rushed into the dormitory in a hurry, and sat on Wangcheng's chair, exhaling the heat.

"Why doesn't the supermarket in this crappy place even have Evian mineral water? I didn't have any water to drink all afternoon."

Wang Cheng asked cautiously: "Did you bring a cup? I just got hot water."

Cui Xinyu looked at Wang Cheng with the eyes of a monster: "I only drink Evian mineral water in summer."

"You two are Ye Ran and Wang Cheng?"

Wang Cheng nodded.

"My name is Cui Xinyu, from now on we will be classmates and roommates, fate, fate."

Cui Xinyu looked around the dormitory for a week, and stuck out his tongue: "The accommodation conditions here are far worse than I imagined, and it has fallen below my lowest expectations. The bathroom doesn't even have a hot shower, can people still live in it? After all, it's a hundred years Famous school, tsk tsk."

"The school I exchanged to LA back then had a kitchen, gymnasium and coffee shop. It's nothing like here, the hardware facilities are not complete, and the decoration taste is so bad. It is also known as the first school in East China—"

"Excuse me, is Ye Ran here?" The knock on the door interrupted Cui Xinyu's comment on the accommodation environment.

Ye Ran got up and opened the door, and saw Zhou Si standing at the door.

"What's the matter with me?"

"I haven't seen you for two months, don't be so cold."

Ye Ran closed the door with a bang.

"Hey, old classmate, I just want to have dinner with you."

Ye Ran opened the door and said, "Okay."

Zhou Si didn't expect Ye Ran to agree so simply, rubbing his hands and smiling like a big dog: "Okay, okay, I'll make a reservation right away."

"It's too hot outside now. I'll see you at six when the sun goes down. Don't forget."

Zhou Si thought for a while, and then said: "I live in 306, if you are bored, welcome to come and find me, I will chat with you for free, you will be satisfied, and I will also give you tea."

"Would you like some hot water? I just happened to drop by and fetch some bottles for you."

Ye Ran finally couldn't help it and said: "Okay, okay, Mrs. Zhou, you can go quickly."

Zhou Si crossed Ye Ran's shoulder, and greeted the inside room smartly: "Hello, roommates, let's talk about it together some other day."

Ye Ran closed the door, returned to the bed, took out the books from the cardboard box, and stacked them on the small bookshelf.

"Is he your junior high school classmate?" Cui Xinyu cut three oranges and asked Ye Ranwangcheng to eat them together.

"That's it."

"Your classmate is not ordinary. You can't buy that watch in the mainland."

Ye Ran shrugged and said, "It's pretty much the same for me."

Cui Xinyu said: "What does his family do?"

"I'm not so sure either."

Cui Xinyu said: "You have known him for so long, do you really not know?"

Ye Ran simply took a change of clothes and said, "I'll take a shower."

Cui Xinyu wanted to ask something else, but seeing Ye Ran not responding to him, he closed his mouth wisely.

"What do you think, Dachengzi?"

"What do you think..."

"Ye Ran's junior high school classmate, isn't that interesting?"

"He is very kind to Ye Ran, very... loyal."

Cui Xinyu slapped his thigh with a smile: "You are a quiet person, but your intuition is not bad. Let's have dinner together later, who told Ye Ran to abandon us when he sees sex."

"Forget about sex... His classmate is not a girl, so you can't use this word..."

But Cui Xinyu didn't answer the words, but only blinked, showing a mysterious smile, with a look of understanding.

The High School Attached to Normal University officially started classes on September 9. Before that, there was a two-week military training.There are 3 classes in the senior one of the attached middle school, and every two classes have a company, a total of ten companies.

"Stand at attention—take a rest, rest on the spot for 5 minutes!" The young instructor shouted in a hoarse voice, took out a plate of grass coral lozenges from his pocket, picked one and threw it into his mouth.In the summer of August, after being exposed to the scorching sun for a week, not only the children were extremely tired, but also his own throat was a little unbearable.

In the afternoon, the sun was brighter and the sun was scorching hot. The plastic running track was scorched and hot. The military green sneakers uniformly issued by the school had thin soles, which made it extremely uncomfortable to step on the track.As soon as the company commander's rest order was uttered, rows of students squatted down, like ducklings, pulling off their military caps and fanning their necks. Their sweaty shirts seemed to be fished out of the water, and they were tight. Clinging to the body, sticky.

Zhou Si raised his arm, wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve, and glanced at Ye Ran in front left.I saw Ye Ran squatting on the ground with his body bowed, his face buried in his knees, half of his face that was vaguely exposed was pale and blue.The classmate next to him leaned over to ask him, but he just waved his hands and rubbed his head on his knees, probably so dizzy that he didn't even have the strength to lift his head.The student saw that Ye Ran himself indicated that it was all right, and he had only known him for a few days, so he was too embarrassed to go overboard and report to the instructor, so he gave up and chatted with others.Seeing this, Zhou Si hurriedly got up and trotted to tell the instructor about Ye Ran's situation.

Here, Ye Ran only felt his chest tight and panicked, he felt nauseous, his ears were buzzing, and his body felt like he was on fire.He was suffering, thinking about asking for a leave of absence from the instructor, but someone grabbed his arm and helped him up.Ye Ran's eyes turned white, and as soon as his feet softened, he threw himself into the arms of the man.

"Let's go to the school infirmary." Zhou Si saw that Ye Ran's face was completely pale, and his eyes were very slack, and he felt nervous, so he squatted down and said, "Come on my back."

Zhou Si was at the age of smoking, and his height had already reached 180, but no matter how much he ate, he didn't gain weight, so he squatted down, and the shoulder blades on his back were extremely protruding.Ye Ran was still a little conscious, shook his head, and said with all his might, "I'll go by myself."

But the instructor over there said: "Let's go to someone else, and accompany the classmates to the school doctor to prescribe some medicine and turn on the air conditioner."

"Report, I'll go with Ye Ran!" But Yu Ning ran forward, lifted Ye Ran's arm, and put it on his neck.

But Zhou Si said: "I am enough alone, why are you running here to make trouble?"

Yu Ning ignored him, and just said: "Stop talking nonsense under the sun, Ye Ran is about to faint."

Zhou Si squatted down, bent Ye Ran on his back, and said to Ye Ran sideways: "Hold my neck, hold me tight, if I fall, I will fall into a fool."

Ye Ran dazedly stretched out his hand to circle Zhou Si.Although he was thin, he was still a 176-foot boy, and when he was pressed on Zhou Si's body, it took a lot of effort to tell him to straighten up.

Yu Ning couldn't laugh or cry at the side, so he had to follow behind to support Ye Ran, for fear that he would fall and get a concussion.

Zhou Si was carrying Ye Ran on his back, and his warm breath was in his ears. Because of Ye Ran's body temperature at this time, the temperature of that breath was a little high, which made Zhou Si's ears numb, and his mind fluttered.As I walked, I felt a mass of soft glutinous glutinous mass. With the movement on the road, it would rub against the naked flesh under the ears from time to time.Zhou Si realized that it was Ye Ran's lips|flesh, and felt dizzy as if he was soaking in a wine jar, walking on clouds.

"The school doctor's office is just around the corner. Just keep going." Yu Ning saw bead-sized beads of sweat dripping from Zhou Si's forehead, and couldn't help but said.

How come it's here so soon.Zhou Si frowned and thought.

The night before the end of the military training, Zhou Si got some cans of priest beer and dragged Ye Ran to the roof of the teaching building to blow the night breeze.

Ye Ran knew that he was a light drinker, so he only took a small sip and tasted it with the tip of his tongue.

"How is it?" Zhou Si smiled.

"Mmm... sweet."

"This beer has a high malt content, so it's sweet."

Ye Ran lay on the rusty guardrail, looking at the lights of Wanjia in the vast night.The ancient bell tower in the distance knocked nine times slowly, and the desolate and simple ancient straight sound echoed and circled in the night, lingering for a long time.

Ye Ran misses the dilapidated small playground of Fuxing Primary School. Walking around, there are cinders all the way, and the teachers speak Mandarin with an accent.Instead of morning bells and evening drums, there are bursts of cock crowing in the countryside, across the sky that has not yet dawned, and the day begins.

He took a sip of beer and felt his eyes wet.

"You said, there is nothing in this world that time cannot change."

Zhou Si remained silent, only to see Ye Ran laughing: "Probably not. Then what is the most likely to be changed by time, Zhou Si."

Zhou Si stared at Ye Ran and shook his head.

Ye Ran pointed to the towering bright yellow bell tower in the distance, and said: "Look at that bell tower, it has been there for thousands of years. As for people's hearts, it is another idea between day and night."

He turned around, leaned his back against the guardrail, and looked up at the dark night sky.

"Ever since I was a child, I felt that grandma and papa are actually quite different. Papa likes to drink strong tea and gulp down strong alcohol until he gets drunk. He smokes a lot, and two-thirds of a cup of tea is made of tea leaves. He drank alcohol when he got angry. He dropped out of junior high school before finishing junior high school, and farmed at home until he was 20 years old and ran around the world, with a thick layer of calluses on the soles of his feet."

"Grandmother likes coffee and red wine. I can't buy these things in the town. My dad has to go to a big city to bring them to her. She can play the violin. She writes very beautifully with a calligraphy brush. She also likes to play songs that I don't understand. "

"However, these two people came together and gave birth to me. Fifteen years have passed."

Ye Ran was drinking while talking, his head sank to Zhou Si's shoulder bit by bit.

"Before the senior high school entrance examination, once, my mother accidentally gave me the household registration booklet. In the household registration booklet, there were me and my mother, but I couldn't find my father."

"They haven't said it all the time, so I don't know. They don't want me to know, so I don't know."

"I... I have been very good since I was a child."

Zhou Si said "hmm" from time to time, and the rest of the time he just quietly watched Ye Ran pouring down bottle after bottle of beer, talking about things in his childhood, laughing and shedding tears.

He was indeed drunk.

There is a real and clear weight on the shoulders, and when you turn your head, you can smell the malt aroma of beer and the lemon scent of shower gel on the other person.Zhou Si touched the tissue in his pocket, and helped Ye Ran wipe off the wine stains and tears on his face.
