No.70 days

Zhu Jingjing's wedding was scheduled for noon on May [-]st.

The afternoon before, Shao Wu took the high-speed train back to Yongchuan alone with his backpack on his back.These days, there is always an indescribable atmosphere between him and Yang Shuyi, is it a cold war?But they never quarreled at all, and they even had an affectionate one the night before, when Yang Shuyi put his arms around his waist and called him "Xiao Shao", no matter what he heard, he was fascinated.

But it would not be right to say that everything was as usual, Shao Wu didn't know if he was overly sensitive, or, it might be because he still felt a little unhappy.Sometimes when he looks at Yang Shuyi, he always feels that Yang Shuyi is thoughtful as if he wants to say something to him. He waits, but what he waits for is Yang Shuyi's gentle smile or kiss.

It feels like the headphone cable is tangled up when listening to music. Although it doesn't affect the use, the clump is always dangling in the eyes, which makes him anxious for no reason.

When Shao Wu went out, Yang Shuyi was drawing a picture, facing the computer with a particularly focused expression.Even when he was pacing up and down in the room looking for his ID card, Yang Shuyi just raised his eyes and asked, "Did you find it?"

"Yeah." In fact, I haven't found it yet, but Shao Wu feels bored and doesn't want to say more.

Yang Shuyi nodded, and told him: "Remember to keep your ID card after checking the tickets."

"I know." Shao Wu said.

Shao Wu squatted down and continued to search in the drawer.

Yang Shuyi stopped talking, and continued to concentrate on drawing, the sound of clicking the mouse was very crisp.Shao Wu thought to himself, doesn't Yang Shuyi find it strange?If you found the ID card, why are you still rummaging here?

And the sentence "I know" just now, his tone is very impatient, right?Can't Yang Shuyi feel it?

But Yang Shuyi just didn't respond.

Shao Wu put his ID card in his wallet and put on his backpack: "Then I'm leaving."

Yang Shuyi got up and sent Shao Wu to the door, even holding a pencil in his hand, he said softly, "Send me a message when you arrive."

"En." Shao Wu lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, and reached out to twist the doorknob, but the movement was very slow.

After opening the door, he squatted down again, untied the slightly loose shoelaces, and tied them again.

He is stalling for time.

Waiting for Yang Shuyi to kiss him—or hug him, that's fine too.

However, Yang Shuyi just took out his mobile phone to check the time, and urged: "Go quickly, don't be late."

Shao Wu: "..."

Shao Wu turned around and walked out of the house sullenly.

Maybe Yang Shuyi was really concentrating on drawing... Shao Wu said to himself, there is no need for two big men to be so nasty, is there?

When he arrived in Yongchuan, Shao Wu sent Yang Shuyi a WeChat message: I'm here

After nearly half an hour, Yang Shuyi replied: Yes

It's gone.

"Yeah" and it's gone.

It's normal, it's normal... Shao Wu repeatedly said to himself, Yang Shuyi is really busy, besides, he's going back to Chongqing tomorrow night, and they've only been separated for a few hours, so there's nothing to worry about.

Even so, before falling asleep that night, Shao Wu couldn't help but send Yang Shuyi another WeChat message.

It was a selfie in front of the full-length mirror. Shao Wu changed his clothes: a pure black New Balance hooded jacket with a round-neck white T-shirt inside, and a pair of bleached sky blue jeans with a low waist.Even the shoes are new, black and white Adidas shell shoes, revealing a white ankle.

Refreshing and clean like a high school student.

Yang Shuyi:?

Shao Wu thought in his heart, are you willing to send me a message?

Shao Wu: My mother bought it. I will wear this to Jingjing's wedding tomorrow. How about it?

The screen displayed "typing", and Shao Wu waited for Yang Shuyi's news, even blushing a little.Of course he knew that he looked good in such a dress, so tender that he could pinch water.He asked Yang Shuyi on purpose - he wanted to hear a few words of praise from him.

5 minutes have passed, and the other party is still "typing".

Shao Wu thought to himself, there is no need to boast so much...

After another 2 minutes, Shao Wu's phone was hot.

The screen lit up.

Yang Shuyi: I don't think it's appropriate.

Shao Wu: Huh?

Yang Shuyi: It's too casual, not serious enough.

Shao Wu: ...

Yang Shuyi directly sent a voice message: "It's better to dress more formally for the wedding, you are dressed... like you are going to play ball."

Like going to play ball.

If he said that on purpose, that's fine.

But his tone was very gentle, very sincere, and even a little cautious... Obviously, he spoke the truth.

Shao Wu was instantly discouraged, and replied: "Okay, I understand."

Is the love period over?He's still worried about Zhu Jingjing and her boyfriend, they've been talking for at least two or three months, he and Yang Shuyi - it's only going to be a month!Yang Shuyi is annoying him!He stopped kissing and hugging before going out, stopped sending WeChat chats on the high-speed rail, and even started to pick on him for not being mature enough—he is indeed not as beautiful and sassy as Zou Xin, not as good as Zou Xin, which girl would he Nothing compares.

If Yang Shuyi came to Zhu Jingjing's wedding, if Yang Shuyi brought Zou Xin, or some other girl.Shao Wu can imagine that scene, Yang Shuyi is undoubtedly handsome, and the girl, maybe wearing a pleated skirt, maybe wearing a beige windbreaker, she will hold Yang Shuyi's hand...very elegant and decent.

Perfect for an old classmate's wedding.

But now Yang Shuyi's lover is him.

So Yang Shuyi didn't come.

This thought was like a vortex, which suddenly drained Shao Wu's strength.He knew he was asking for trouble, but—but the vortex sucked him in, dragging him into the darkness.He and Yang Shuyi, they can close the door and have a deep affection, but whenever they face the world, Shao Wu doesn't know how Yang Shuyi feels, at least he himself always feels embarrassed.

It's a kind of embarrassment like a mouse crossing the street.

At eleven noon the next day, Shao Wu arrived at the Jinhui Hotel where the wedding was held on time.After all, he didn't wear yesterday's clothes, but a shirt and trousers in a regular manner.Jinhui Hotel is older than Shaowu. It used to be located in the old town, but later it moved to the new district. The decoration is very luxurious.Shao Wu met two old classmates at the door, exchanged some pleasantries, and walked into the door of the hotel together.

The glass sensor door opened automatically, the red carpet was soft under the feet, and the mottled shadows of the crystal lamps covered the ground.

There are pink balloons everywhere, and people come and go.

Shao Wu was in a trance for a moment, thinking that he had returned to more than three months ago.He stayed with his mother in the hospital, and in the WeChat group, someone posted a lot of photos and videos.The atmosphere was so lively, and the arrangement was so warm - it was Yang Shuyi's wedding.

Shao Wu squeezed his palms, walked to the welcome desk, and took out the red envelopes he had prepared from his backpack.

"Hey," the female classmate who came in with him asked, seeing that he was following Yang Shuyi on his behalf, "isn't Yang Shuyi coming?"

"Well, he said he couldn't leave."

"It's uncomfortable," another female classmate teased, "Wang Wen said on the way here, it's a pity that I can see the handsome guy today."

"That's okay," the girl named Wang Wen patted Shao Wu boldly, "Look at Shao Wu, it's the same."

The high school students who came to the banquet were arranged at a table. Everyone was old acquaintances. After greeting each other, they chatted lively and lively.First, they discussed how much Zhu Jingjing spent on the wedding, and then talked about their respective incomes, complaining about the soaring housing prices. The boys lamented that they were under too much pressure. How dare they marry a wife if they don’t have a house? Or husband and wife repay the loan together...

When they talked about marriage and love, Shao Wu really couldn't get in the mouth, so he had to hold the cup and drink water continuously, and then poured and drank again.

A boy on the table said with a foolish smile: "I really want to find someone to get in the door!"

"Then you can learn from Yang Shuyi," said another boy whose name Shaowu couldn't remember. "Find a wife in Beijing, with a few flats at home, and you will have enough food and clothing for the rest of your life."

After speaking, several boys burst into laughter, quite tacitly.

Shao Wu remained expressionless and kept silent.

At their age, everyone was making a living in the society, and no one had ever seen this kind of harmless joke, and it was easy to make a joke, since Yang Shuyi was not around anyway.

And he himself has already passed the age where he would hold Shen Qi's unintentional ridicule for many years, and even refused to attend her wedding with Wang Yiheng.

"Oh, don't talk nonsense," Wang Wen said, "Yang Shuyi and his wife are very affectionate, so what's wrong with getting in the door? Otherwise, I wouldn't go back to Yongchuan for the wedding." After she finished speaking, she glanced at Shaowu's complexion.

It was probably because she saw Shao Wu taking a copy with Yang Shuyi on behalf of Yang Shuyi just now, and she knew that the two had a good relationship.

"That's right, that's right," another girl said, "When they got married, the woman's parents also came. I saw with my own eyes that the two old people were waiting to see Yang Shuyi. They helped stop the woman's relatives to persuade her to drink."

"Really," the boy who just mentioned Yang Shuyi sneered, "I didn't go to Yang Shuyi's wedding..."

"He has a very good relationship. If you don't believe me, you can ask Shao Wu. Shao Wu and Yang Shuyi are very close."

As soon as Wang Wen said this, all eyes on the table were focused on Shao Wu.

"...the two of them," Shao Wu bowed his head and took a sip of water, "their relationship is quite good, um... they are both talented and beautiful, right?"

"Have Yang Shuyi and the others bought a house in Chengdu?" a boy asked.

"I seem to have bought it." Shao Wu said boldly.

"Hey, Yang Shuyi's wife is really pretty," another girl sighed, "Wearing a wedding dress that day, oh my god, it's true that a fairy has descended to earth."

Shao Wu raised the corners of his mouth and smiled: "They really match well."

The topic about Yang Shuyi finally came to an end, and everyone talked about buying a car, German or Japanese, which insurance is the most cost-effective... Shao Wu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

After a while, the master of ceremonies took the stage to host, and the guests in the audience were much quieter.Shao Wu was clutching his phone, and was about to send Yang Shuyi a WeChat message to ask him if he had lunch. The lock screen of the phone hadn't been unlocked yet, when he heard a commotion at the door, someone yelled: "The bride is here!"

"Wedding Symphony" came out from the stereo, Shao Wu was stunned for a second, and then stretched his neck and looked towards the door together with everyone.

From a distance, he saw Zhu Jingjing wearing a white off-the-shoulder wedding dress, holding a rose in her hand, and her groom on his arm, walking slowly.
