Xin Zhai

Summer in City Y is coming.

In June, the central part of the north began to enter the scorching heat of the sun. Because City Y is facing the sea, the humid and cool sea breeze blows away the heat.So in June and July, it is much cooler here than inland.

Ye Li won the excellent paper award last time, and the list was posted in the entrance hall of the department building.Before that, he felt that it didn't make much difference whether he was excellent or not.After the project is completed, everything has been learned and a sense of accomplishment has been gained. As for other things, they are all things that cannot be expected.But when Tong Yan won the opportunity for him and he really got this honor, he realized that winning means being affirmed, which gave him more confidence and motivation to move forward.This cannot be given by other things.

Honor, you have to fight for it.In today's school where everything is spoken according to rigid conditions, there is no future in speaking of high-mindedness and demeanor, and it is almost useless to be popular and loved by students.Research results, the quantity and quality of papers, and awards are real.

Ye Li guessed that when Tong Yan won the award for the first time, he must have felt similar to him.During these years at school, he knows what honor means.Getting an award that no one else has when you are an undergraduate is very likely to affect a person's life.

Tong Yan has gone abroad these days.The robotic arm project has not made any progress recently, so he applied to go to a foreign laboratory for an exchange to see if he could get some experience back.He uses WeChat to remotely control Ye Li almost every day, because many things have been left behind by the school, and Ye Li can only do it.

"Have you found Thursday's substitute teacher?"

There is a time difference of eight or nine hours between Tong Yan and him. Sometimes Tong Yan forgets the time when he is busy, and the news will often wake up the sleeping Ye Li.

"No, Mr. Xiao can't say no."

Ye Li looked at his watch, it was 2 o'clock for Ye Li, and it was after five o'clock in the afternoon for Tong Yan.

"Talk to him again."

Ye Li turned over and sent back a message: "What should I say? You can tell him."

"You don't know how to say this, and you want me to teach you?"

When Ye Li saw this sentence, he was completely refreshed.

"He is a teacher and I am a student. Can I say whatever I want? You are smart and you can say it."

After reading this article, Tong Yan probably thought typing was troublesome, so he sent a voice message directly.Ye Li looked at it, tapped it, put the phone to his ear, and covered the quilt for fear that others would hear it.

Tong Yan was basically shouting over there: "You still know that you are a student, why are you just talking to me like that! I don't have time to talk to him!"

Tong Yan was probably outside and could hear the car horn.

Ye Li pressed the phone without thinking: "Can you keep your voice down? They are all sleeping!"

"Because you are nice to me."

After sending these two sentences, Ye Li lay on his stomach for a long time, his arms were a little numb, and he changed his posture, only then did he feel that the second sentence was a bit inappropriate.

Would Tong Yan know what he was thinking?This can't be told to others, if Tong Yan finds out, how should he think about him?It's good to scold him, otherwise it will alienate him, such as not letting him do projects, and staying in the laboratory all day like now.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly withdrew the second item.

Ye Li learned from Su Xiaoqian that the same sex can also have feelings.Su Xiaoqian spoke clearly and logically, but such feelings are still very rare after all, and they can only survive in places where the sun doesn't shine, how can they be taken for granted.

He clutched his phone, feeling a little sad all of a sudden.

"Forgot...why didn't I say it earlier."

"Also, why withdraw?"

"Wrong."

"Wrong?! Which is wrong, please explain clearly."

"..."

He must have seen it.Ye Li was crying, not knowing what to say, holding the phone, his hands were sweaty.

After waiting for a while, Tong Yan sent another message: "Did it wake you up?"

Ye Li muttered "nonsense" in his heart, and now there was a sweet feeling in his heart.In his 19 years of lackluster life, this was the first time he had the experience of chatting with someone at two o'clock in the morning, and it was the person he had a crush on.His feet were hot now, and he kicked the quilt down.

"No." He replied.

"That's why you haven't slept all the time?"

Ye Li thought for a while, then replied: "Sleeping, I just got up to go to the bathroom, and you just sent me a message."

"Ha ha."

Ye Li touched his hot face, this lie was really clumsy.

"It's almost exam week, and I have to add exercises to my two courses. You can talk to the class representative and arrange the time."

"it is good."

"As for the substitute class, you can go to Xiao Meng, don't be afraid of him, I also taught him a class, he owes me."

Ye Li rolled his eyes: "Then what should I say, do you owe Teacher Tong?"

"Yes, that's it." Ye Lili said, you can't talk to him when you make a phone call?

As soon as he thought of this, Tong Yan sent over: "I called him yesterday and said, but he disagreed."

"..."

"Aren't you two very nice? You go and try again. If it doesn't work, forget it, send me a notice and cancel 2 weeks of classes. I'll come back and make up for it."

"I don't have a good relationship with him..."

After sending this message, there was no movement on the phone for a long time, and Ye Li estimated that Tong Yan would not reply to him again.But now he can't sleep at all.

The next day, Ye Li said a lot of good things to Xiao Meng, and promised that Tong Yan would treat him to dinner, and finally persuaded him.

Ye Li heaved a sigh of relief, walked to Tong Yan's room, opened the window for ventilation, and watered the flowers for him.

Lin Li didn't come to the department hall these days. The project was finished and she was just waiting for graduation. It was the most carefree period of time.Ye Li is alone in the laboratory, researching the circuit diagram of the project.I walked back after 8 o'clock in the evening, went to the playground to finish my run, and arrived downstairs in the dormitory before 10 o'clock.

The road from the playground to the dormitory is at the east end of the school. There are no teaching buildings and dormitories on both sides, and there are very few people.Ye Li came from that road, walked towards the dormitory building from the east end of the dormitory area, and suddenly saw two people standing in the shadow under the trees by the roadside.

Hugging or even kissing is a very normal thing for couples in school. When Ye Li sees it, he usually looks away.But he felt that those two people looked familiar, so he couldn't help but look twice more.

He immediately saw clearly that the two people were A Gu and Su Xiaoqian.

Ah Gu leaned on the tree trunk, hugging Su Xiaoqian.Ye Li was startled at first, and instinctively looked away.

But almost at the same time, Ye Xin's head immediately became sore.

He was so happy, happy for Su Xiaoqian, he almost felt the feeling of being hugged by his lover.

He stood there dumbfounded, and involuntarily cast his eyes on the two of them again.

A Gu was a little taller than Su Xiaoqian, lowered his head, didn't speak, just looked at Su Xiaoqian and smiled, then suddenly turned his head away and kissed him.The moment he kissed Su Xiaoqian, he raised his eyes and saw Ye Li who was more than ten meters away.

Ah Gu stopped and smiled at Ye Li.

This smile is different from the smile she gave Su Xiaoqian just now, both are pretty, but different.

Because it was a little cold at night, Su Xiaoqian was wearing a pullover.After Ah Gu's smile disappeared, he looked at Su Xiaoqian again, and reached out to put the hat on his coat.

Ye Li couldn't see Su Xiaoqian's face anymore, if it wasn't because he knew his clothes, he might not have recognized him at all.Of course Su Xiaoqian didn't see him from the beginning to the end.

Ye Li also smiled, turned around and walked towards the dormitory.When he turned around, Ah Gu hugged Su Xiaoqian tightly with one hand, and bowed his head to kiss him again.

Ye Li walked back, the wind was blowing on his hot face.He was so shocked. After being surprised, he was actually deeply moved.

He knew that he didn't need to ask Su Xiaoqian any more.

All night, his mind was full of images of his dear friend Su Xiaoqian, and he couldn't get rid of them no matter how hard he tried.

The feeling of being kissed by your sweetheart will never be forgotten in your life.
