Gu Pan

Grandpa Lin and Grandma Lin have gone back to the countryside these few days. After the New Year's Day performance, Lin Yongzhi bought a bunch of junk food and brought home a bunch of junk food. By the way, he invited a group of friends who love music to play at home.

It is said to be "celebration", but it is actually a group of people looking for a reason to gather together and dance wildly.

Although Chang Gu decided to let Shen Pan go, but he felt a little uncomfortable.On the one hand, he doesn't want to communicate with others, on the other hand, he wants to cling to Shen Pan, he will go wherever Shen Pan goes.

Chang Gu struggled all the way, and before he could figure out what to do, he was dragged to Lin Yong's home by Shen Pan full of awkwardness.

Lin Yongge and Pan Yaqin were sitting on the sofa in the living room chatting, seeing Shen Pan, Pan Yaqin's eyes lit up, and he stood up immediately: "Shen Pan, you are here too."

Lin Yongge raised his head, glanced at Shen Pan and Chang Gu who was beside him, and then at Pan Yaqin, suddenly he couldn't help but laugh.

Chang Gu immediately recognized Pan Yaqin, and he and Shen Pan had several quarrels because of this inexplicable girl.Chang Gu's entanglement disappeared immediately, and he was very glad that he followed.

Shen Pan and Pan Yaqin looked at each other, said "hmm" in a neutral manner, as a way of saying hello, and then sat down with Chang Gu.

"She likes you." Chang Gu couldn't help but said to Shen Pan, his voice was very low.

Shen Pan smiled, and could hear the sourness in his words: "I'm not blind."

At this time, Lin Yongge stood up and asked Shen Pan, "Do you want ice cream, old Pan? Come on, come with me to get some ice cream."

Most children at this age don't know how to live and die, and love to eat ice cream in winter as fun.As a good boy who is very afraid of the cold, Shen Pan has never been able to understand this kind of fun, and was about to refuse, but when he looked up, he saw Lin Yongge's eyes.

The words of refusal whirled around in his throat, and swallowed them back silently. Shen Pan whispered to Chang Gu, "Wait for me here", got up and followed Lin Yongge into the kitchen.

He watched Lin Yongge open the refrigerator door, without any intention of reaching out to help, he leaned against the kitchen door and asked, "What's wrong?"

Lin Yongge pulled out a few boxes of expensive ice cream from the bottom floor, and asked enthusiastically, "You and your monitor are really having...cough, so what—are you getting together?"

"You want to say that we are gay?" Shen Pan said frankly, "Yeah, we are gay, why?"

"Didn't you deny it before?" Lin Yongge glanced up and down at him meaningfully, "You said no, but your body is very honest - no wonder we hugged each other in the music room today."

"We were not together at that time." Shen Pan said slowly, "Old Lin, now that you know, don't match me and Pan Yaqin all day long. To tell you the truth, I have no feelings for girls."

"Understood, you are a natural bender." Lin Yongge suddenly realized, it seems that Shen Pan didn't feel that it was not her problem, but Shen Pan's own reason. Thinking of this, Lin Yongge was relieved, and gossiped with great interest, "You Is the squad leader the same?"

"I don't know." Shen Pan told the truth, thinking that even if he hadn't before, now Chang Gu has made him break up. Is this question meaningful?

He decided not to talk nonsense with Lin Yongge, he just took a box of ice cream from her, went out and asked Chang Gu: "Squad leader, do you want to eat?"

Chang Gu doesn't have a hobby of eating ice cream in winter, but he usually doesn't refuse Shen Pan's offer, and he's used to eating it as soon as he takes it.Just as a box of ice cream was unpacked, there was a loud noise at the door. Lin Yongge came back with a bunch of cronies and a few big bags of junk food.

"Hey, Shen Pan, here we come!" Lin Yongzhi whistled at Shen Pan, "Your friend is here too? Come, brother, let's go to the attic together."

Since they don't have to go to school tomorrow, and there are no elders at home, a group of boys and girls brawled recklessly until late.I don't know what Lin Yongge said to Pan Yaqin, Pan Yaqin looked at Shen Pan with sad and melancholy eyes all night, making him feel uncomfortable.

While Lin Yongge was going downstairs to get an iced Coke, Shen Pan asked her in a low voice, "What did you say to Pan Yaqin? There's something wrong with the way she looks at me!"

"What else can I say? Of course it means that you have someone you like—don't worry, I didn't say you like a boy." Lin Yongge bumped Shen Pan away with his shoulder and passed him by, "Get out of the way, no It’s fine to help, but you’re still in the way.”

Shen Pan watched her take out a large bottle of Coke from the refrigerator, and really couldn't understand how much fun these people had in drinking iced drinks in winter, so he shrugged and walked away.

There was a lot of noise in the attic, and Shen Pan stubbornly seized a guitar. Except for gagging with the half-baked boys around him, the rest of the time was spent teaching Chang Gu to play the guitar——Chang Gu wanted to learn to play this. Because watching him play, I think it is very handsome, which seems to be very interesting.

It was past ten o'clock in the evening when everyone left Lin Yong's house one after another. Chang Gu called his aunt on Shen Pan's mobile phone and said that he and Shen Pan would go to a classmate's house to play.My aunt has always advocated free-range education, and she is not strict with Qianqian, let alone Chang Gu—she is very relieved of Chang Gu, and the report cards are very convincing. .

Besides, my aunt has met Shen Pan a few times. Although the child's hair is indeed a bit nondescript, but it is good-looking, looks clean, and is neatly dressed. He doesn't look like a bad student at all.

The aunt also asked some things about Shen Pan on the sidelines, and learned from Chang Gu that the child's grades were good, although not as good as Chang Gu, but he was considered excellent in the class.

Chang Gu's personality was introverted and reticent. When he first came to Hetang Town, he was gloomy and gloomy. My aunt was worried that there would be something wrong with the child.But ever since he made friends with Shen Pan, Chang Gu's aura has slowly changed, and he has gradually become more cheerful - although he still doesn't talk much at home, his inadvertent frowns and smiles can't lie.

So Chang Gu and Shen Pan played together, and my aunt liked it very much. In her opinion, it was okay for the boy to come home late, and she believed that Chang Gu had his own sense of proportion.

When Chang Gu arrived home, my aunt was about to go to bed. When she saw him come back, she asked him a few questions as usual—for example, where did he and Shen Pan go to play, which classmate's house they were at, and what they did.

Chang Gu has always been very well-behaved in front of his aunt, and told his aunt everything he could say—the part that was concealed was of course related to dating.The aunt was very satisfied, and soon let Chang Gu go to take a bath and sleep.

For the next two days, Chang Gu and Shen Pan either stayed together to read books and do homework, or ran out to play with others.Shen Pan seemed to be worried that Chang Gu would go back on his word, taking advantage of Chang Gu's willingness to get along with others these days, he took him around to find classmates to play with.

The third day was New Year's Day, Chang Gu brought a few thick books to Shen Pan's house early in the morning, and read extracurricular books in Shen Pan's room to pass the time.Shen Pan seemed restless all morning. He ran out and made five phone calls in three hours. The chief consulted him, but he pretended to be fine and said nothing happened.

Chang Gu felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't say anything - he didn't like the feeling that Shen Pan was hiding something from him.

Chang Gu had lunch at Shen Pan's house as usual. In the afternoon, Shen Pan finally couldn't sit still and dragged Chang Gu up to the third floor of their house.

Chang Gu rarely came here, before he had time to take a good look at this spacious and unique music room, Shen Pan pressed him on the soft chair and asked him to sit quietly and not move.

"What are you doing?" Chang Gu looked puzzled, but he did as he did, sitting upright without moving.

Shen Pan gave him a mysterious smile, then picked up the guitar, found a chair and sat down, and played a live version of...the nursery rhyme "Happy Birthday" to Chang Gu.

"Today is January [-]st, your birthday, baby." Shen Pan sang the last line with a smile on her face, and then said to him solemnly, "Gu'er, happy birthday!"

Chang Gu: "..."

Chang Gu didn't know what to say for a while, and he was stunned for a long time before he found his voice: "How do you know...it's my birthday today?"

"Didn't the teacher ask you to fill in the information before? I glanced at your ID number and accidentally remembered it." Shen Pan said with a smile, "I originally ordered a birthday cake, but the cake was delivered There was an accident on the way, and I don’t know if I will have time to deliver the remade one before tonight... How about this baby, if there is no cake, forget it, you will just let me know what song you want to hear, you can order a song , I'll play and sing for you all afternoon."

Accidentally remembered——Chang Gu couldn't help laughing, his nose was sour, he didn't believe Shen Pan's nonsense.

Even my aunt doesn't know that today is his birthday.

Chang Gu was full of tenderness and sweetness, maybe he was so moved that he was abnormal, he suddenly went over to hold Shen Pan's hand, leaned over and kissed the corner of Shen Pan's mouth.

"No need." Chang Gu stroked the thin calluses on Shen Pan's fingers, put his cool hand on his cheek, and said softly, "That's enough just now, how tiring playing and singing for an afternoon, I can't bear it." You do."

Shen Pan glanced at him in surprise, as if he didn't expect Chang Gu to say such straightforward and provocative words.His hand on Chang Gu's face curled up slightly, looking at Chang Gu's clear and handsome face up close, he couldn't help but feel a little ready to move.

Chang Gu's thick eyelashes drooped slightly, like a pair of fluttering butterflies about to fly, perched on the young boy's picturesque face tremblingly.Shen Pan was about to kiss him uncontrollably, when Chang Gu suddenly went around to his side, knelt down on one knee and hugged his waist.

Shen Pan: "...Baby, what's the matter?"

Chang Gu's arms were tightly circled, and it was inconvenient for Shen Pan to move while holding the guitar, so he could only turn his head to look at him.Chang Gu didn't meet his eyes, and buried his face on him, calling his name sullenly.

"Apan."

"Hope."

"Pan'er..."

Shen Pan said "Hey" a few times in a row, seeing that he seemed to be screaming endlessly, so he had to put the guitar aside with difficulty first, and with a little effort broke Chang Gu's arm, forcing him to stand up.

"What's the matter?" Shen Pan reluctantly pulled Chang Gu, let Chang Gu sit on his lap, and hugged him involuntarily, "Huh? Are you moved to tears?"

"Well, I'm going to cry." Chang Gu whispered softly, closed his eyes, and swallowed hard, like a silent choke, "My mother used to celebrate my birthday...Only my mother always remembers My birthday."

Shen Pan remained silent, and silently hugged Chang Gu even tighter.He saw the slightly reddened corners of Chang Gu's eyes. Although it was not obvious, the blush seemed to be stained on the tip of his heart, not bloody, but painful.

Chang Gu's mother is no longer alive, Shen Pan knows.

The same goes for Shen Pan's mother.
