Xin Zhai

When Ye Li came out of Chen Shan's house, he felt depressed and couldn't tell what it was like.As soon as I got on the bus, I received a call from Liu Na.

"Ye Li, are you busy?"

"Not busy, you say."

"I heard... I heard from others today... that you are chasing Teacher Tong?"

Ye Li's heart sank, probably she had heard about his writing about those inspections, but she was embarrassed to use some ugly words, so she was asking him tactfully.

Ye Li let out a "hmm".Liu Na said anxiously: "Impossible, you can't do that."

Ye Li didn't ask her what other people said about herself, but said, "It's true."

"You...what the hell is going on?"

"It's just that I was found out and caused trouble for Mr. Tong. He rated the excellent youth, and the department is investigating him. I can only tell the truth."

Although Liu Na felt that this was not what Ye Li did, she couldn't find any logical errors, so she hesitated for a long time before hanging up the phone.

After Liu Na asked, Su Xiaoqian and Pu Liang asked him once respectively, and he answered the same thing.Those two people were surprised by the fact that he likes Tong Yan. As for the more embarrassing statement, they didn't really believe it, and they both asked him if he had offended someone.

During this period of time, the chorus teacher started teaching two songs, as small as how to exhale each word and where to inhale in a sentence.Of the two songs to be sung, the rhythm of the school song is relatively slow, soothing and quiet.The other one is impassioned and has a strong sense of rhythm. After more than 100 people were divided into several parts, they were matched with harmony.This was done three times a week for three weeks.When the two songs are sung again, they sound very different. The melody is rich and layered, and it is indeed much more beautiful.

One afternoon a few days before the competition, the chorus teacher gathered everyone in the hall of the department hall.As soon as you enter the hall, it is an empty space, and then you have to go up four steps to get to the corridor.Just take advantage of this terrain to arrange the formation for the final match.

Everyone stood at the back in the hall, and the chorus teacher took the roll call at the front, calling each one to stand over one by one. After more than 40 minutes, everyone initially selected their positions.

The teacher stood in front and looked at the team carefully again, making fine adjustments.Ye Li was standing in the penultimate row, walking towards the middle according to the chorus teacher's request, when a person behind whispered "Teacher Tong".

Ye Li raised his head, looked around, and saw Tong Yan standing in a corner of the hall, looking this way with his hands behind his back.

During this period of time, Tong Yan's return date was postponed day by day, at first it was said to be two weeks, and later it was said that it was a day later, or two days later, and in the end it was impossible to give Ye Lizhun a letter.Did not expect to arrive this afternoon.

Far away, Ye Li wasn't sure that he saw him, but he still smiled at him.

It took another ten minutes for the chorus teacher to finally confirm the formation, and then said: "On the day of our competition, boys should wear suits and bow ties are allowed. Girls are better off wearing long skirts. What was the last time the color was discussed?"

The teacher looked in Ye Li's direction, and he quickly replied, "Wine red, I've already found it."

"Okay, it's best to get the clothes half a day in advance. Girls need to put on makeup, and boys should do it too." After the chorus teacher finished speaking, the boys below were all laughing.

"Which day are we competing?" the teacher asked.

"This weekend." Someone from below whispered, "Maybe on the 9th."

"Oh, that's plenty of time."

A girl below said: "My classmates said that they will go to make up and try on clothes on Friday morning. Do they have a rehearsal?"

"What's the date of Friday?"

Someone pulled out their phone to check the calendar. "Friday the 7th."

"Is there a rehearsal?" The chorus teacher looked at Ye Li.

"I didn't say yes." Ye Li was also puzzled.Because it was a 9 chorus, he always thought it was the game on the night of the [-]th, which meant this weekend.But does weekend mean Friday or Sunday?Now some people say that Friday, he is also hairy.

"What day?" Tong Yan, who had been standing beside him without speaking, came over, stared at Ye Li and asked, "Didn't the student union forward the email to you?"

"No." Ye Li said, "I asked about the situation when we met. The order of the game said that it would be sent out in the morning. But I haven't seen the official game notice."

"Call and ask now." Tong Yan said.

Ye Li hurriedly called a senior sister from the Culture and Sports Department of the Student Union. It was her who contacted Ye Li about the competition.

"Game 7, Friday."

Ye Li was dumbfounded when he heard that, and said, "I always thought it was the 9th, why didn't you forward me an official email?"

He was apologizing over there, Ye Li glanced at him, Tong Yan was frowning at him, and quickly hung up the phone.

"It's the 7th, Friday."

Tong Yan said: "Isn't that the day after tomorrow?"

"It's the day after tomorrow." Ye Li suddenly thought, if it's the day after tomorrow's competition, then the clothes he ordered will be too late.

Ye Li was a little dazed, looked at Tong Yan, then at the chorus teacher, and said, "The clothes I ordered are picked up on Saturday, I wonder if I can get them in advance."

When Tong Yan heard this, he walked to the side of his line, with a gloomy expression on his face.

"I, I'll ask the clothes renter if they can advance." Ye Li was a little scared at the moment, he lost his grip on the phone and fell to the ground with a slap.He quickly knelt down to pick it up and started calling.

Tong Yan stared at him intently with a dark face.The surroundings were completely silent, and everyone looked at Ye Li.

After the phone call, Ye Li was desperate, and looked at Tong Yan timidly: "Say it won't be earlier."

"What day did you not figure out the game?"

The hall was terribly quiet, after Tong Yan finished speaking, the echo kept ringing in Ye Li's ears.

"A matter of more than 100 people, a school competition, are you so indifferent?"

Tong Yan's voice was quieter this time, but Ye Li felt even more uncomfortable.This is the first time he has made such a big mistake since he was in college.I have known Tong Yan for so long, this is the first time I am so afraid of him.Ye Li didn't know what expression he had at this time, it was probably uglier than crying, so he lowered his head, bit his lip and didn't speak.

The chorus teacher smoothed things over and said, "Let me ask if I can find clothes for you."

She took out her cell phone and started calling.Tong Yan also walked back to the original corner at this moment, calling someone in a low voice.

Ye Li was standing in the queue, and suddenly saw a girl from a different class looking back at him obliquely in front of him, and then whispered to the girl next to him, "Is that him? The one who is pestering Teacher Tong."

Ye Li's mind buzzed, he felt that everyone in the hall heard this sentence, and everyone's eyes were on his face.He had envisioned this situation when he wrote those things, and thought it was nothing.He is a little naive.

He stood in the line for seconds like years, and when Tong Yan finished making the phone call, he came over again.The moment he opened his mouth, Ye Li thought, if he said any more unpleasant words, he really couldn't take it anymore.

Tong Yan nodded and said, "Come out." Ye Li heaved a sigh of relief and walked out of the team.

"I found a former classmate, a teacher from the Dance Academy, and said that I can help you find clothes. Let's go and have a look."

Ye Li didn't speak, but nodded, and followed Tong Yan out of the department hall gate.

The two walked one after the other to a main road of the school, where there were many cars.Tong Yan hailed a taxi, and the two sat in it.

Ye Li sat behind the driver and opened the window.The air outside the window blows in, so he doesn't feel stuffy anymore.Tong Yan was on the phone again.

"Okay, let's go there now, and it will take more than an hour to get there. Okay, trouble."

After hanging up the phone, Tong Yan turned around and said, "Let's go directly to their warehouse in the north, where all the clothes are."

After finishing speaking, seeing Ye Li staring out of the window on that side, ignoring him, his right hand was clenched into a fist, tightly clenched by his leg.

Tong Yan moved towards him, and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you talk?"

Seeing that Ye Li didn't even look at him, he said in a flattering tone, "Are you angry?"

Tong Yan tilted his head to look at him, and saw that his face was expressionless and his lips were tightly closed.Tong Yan stretched out his left hand, wanting to shake his clenched right hand.Unexpectedly, the moment he touched his skin, Ye Li pulled out his hand, tucked it under his armpit, and folded his arms in a defensive posture, like a cat whose hair has exploded.

Tong Yan thought he was funny, but didn't know how to calm him down.The phone rang again, and the staff from the warehouse over there looked for him.He called for a while and told the taxi driver to wait for them outside for a while, and it shouldn't take long for them to come out after entering.

"Okay." The master agreed.

The two of them were in a stalemate like this, the driver turned on the stereo, and it turned out that Shan Tianfang was telling a story.

"Old man, this is my apprentice Xu Liang." Su Yuanhe was shocked when he heard it: "Oh! This is the famous three-handed general with white eyebrows?" Xu Liang came over and bowed: "I am from Shanxi to salute the old man "Forget it, let me take a look." Su Yuanhe looked very close, held Xu Liang, looked at him dozens of times, nodded repeatedly after reading, and said, "A real hero!"

It was the first time Tong Yan encountered such a situation, and he didn't know what to do, so he listened to the white-browed hero all the way.

The car drove to the place, and the two got out of the car.This is a warehouse in the suburbs of a company that specializes in renting and selling costumes.The warehouse is quite large, and all kinds of performance costumes are hung, some are stacked, and some are randomly stuffed in sacks.Ye Li said the requirements and the number.The staff found him a dark pink dress.

"Is this okay? Boys are easy to talk about, girls are in such a hurry, only this color."

Ye Li looked at it: "It's okay."

"Report me the size of boys and girls, large, medium and small, how many pieces of each you want."

Ye Li immediately reported the number of each size.

"Okay, I'll drive you there tomorrow, and I'll definitely be there before noon."

When Ye Li heard this, he finally let go of the stone in his heart: "That's great!"

"It's over? Let's go then."

Several people decide.Tong Yan and Ye Li left the warehouse, and the taxi was waiting at the door.The driver smoked through the window, and Shan Tianfang's voice continued.

The two got into the car.It was dark in the car now, Tong Yan couldn't see Ye Li's face.He took a step and sat in the middle of the back row.Ye Li moved to the left.Tong Yan suddenly grabbed his right arm, pressed it behind him, and then leaned over.

"What are you doing?" Ye Li whispered, only to find that Tong Yan's left arm had already wrapped around his head, tightly sealing him in his arms.

He wanted to push him away, but he pressed his right hand and his left hand.

Tong Yan's breath came over, and Ye Li realized that he could be said to be at his mercy at this moment.
