Boiling point

He Xin thinks that he is a senior fringe teenager who fights like eating, skipping class and beating others, smoking and drinking. There are a bunch of people in school who don't like him, and some even hook up with the gangsters in the society and often block him. At the school gate, he wanted to have a fight with him out of nothing.

In line with the life creed of the idiots who came to his door, He Xin accepted all their provocations. He is not a master of fighting, and he has never practiced since he was a child. A ruthless one who is ready to spare.

He is not afraid of hurting others, let alone hurting himself. Wu Rui always said that he is a mad dog.

But He Xin recalled his glorious seven or eight years of fighting history. He had never experienced this kind of fighting style with real swords and guns piercing into the flesh.

The sharp blade made a bloody gash in the stomach. If you were an ordinary person, you would have to be sluggish for a while without crying.

But Li Yanqi was just like a normal person. He went to class, worked part-time, and went to the hospital normally. He didn't show the slightest fatigue of "I am a patient". I have never been late again, and the test papers with all marks are still the object of everyone's scrambling, and everything arranged by the teacher is handled properly.

It’s such a positive energy, He Xin wanted to shout out for him, the spirit of being a master of learning is immortal, the red scarf on my chest has become more colorful, and my mother no longer has to worry about my studies.

When they were in a daze, a tall boy knocked on the door of their class, "He Xin! Are you going to play basketball?"

That person was a basketball friend I met during the lunch break. His name was Xu Lan. He was a grade higher than him. He was a sports student. After a match with He Xin, they always wanted to recruit him into the team, threatening that after he came, the rookie team of their No. [-] High School would be able to get their shame in the city league.

He Xin was afraid of trouble, so she rejected him many times, but Xu Lan's skin was as thick as a city wall. One second, he almost tore his face because of a basketball game, and the next second, he was able to put his arm around him and go to the canteen to buy lemon soda.

Very, very heartless.

He Xin raised her eyelids and glanced at him, took out a stack of blank test papers from the desk and stood on the front desk, "Squad leader, ask me a question."

Li Yanqi choked on the water, and was terrified of He Xin who was so indifferent.

"Fuck, is today the end of the world?" Liao Mei who was lying on the side looked up at He Xin.

After all, Li Yanqi is a man of God who can go to school calmly after being stabbed by a knife. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Which question can't you?"

He Xin stared at the densely packed draft paper under his book, feeling dizzy, and casually pointed to a question, "That's it."

Li Yanqi was very eloquent, looked down at the title, took out the draft paper and started to count.

Xu Lan waited at the door for a while, seeing that He Xin didn't intend to come out, she smiled and shouted, "Are you doing your homework? That's fine, I'll come to see you after school at night!"

He Xin was a little irritable, hugged her hands to her chest, knocked her knees against the table, and the test paper fell, Li Yanqi bent down to pick it up, but He Xin also squatted down immediately when he realized that his abdomen was injured, and the two of them put their arms together. When we got together, we touched our hands.

"Are you still talking about the questions?" Li Yanqi patted the dusty test paper on the stool.

He Xin saw that the bruises on the opponent's hands were obvious, and he turned his eyes away for a moment and said, "Are you still hanging water?"

Li Yanqi said, "I didn't go back after the fever subsided."

It has been four days, and the pinhole has not healed yet?

"That's why our Ta brother is white." Liao Mei interjected, "Scars are easy to leave when you are white."

Someone beside him laughed, "Sister Liao, you are the darkest here, and He Xin is also very white."

"You fucking call me Sister Liao again!" Liao Mei put down the game and started chasing the girl who teased him in the corridor.

He Xin stuffed the test paper back into the drawer, leaned against the wall next to her, suddenly remembered Xu Lan's words, kicked Li Yanqi's desk and stool and said, "Are you good at basketball?"

"It's not that bad, just flip it a few times."

Liao Mei slid around and returned to his original position. Hearing their conversation, his eyes lit up instantly, and he rubbed his hands excitedly, "Brother Ta kept his secrets, he beat up the technical team of No. [-] Middle School last time." .”

He Xin raised her eyebrows, "Oh? When will we have a game?"

Li Yanqi took a sip of water, lowered his head and pretended to be deaf and dumb, spread out his homework and calculated a problem before saying, "No."

He Xin knew the way to make this person compromise. He hooked the opponent's stool with his toes and dragged on the spot, "One game is 100 yuan."

The movements in Li Yanqi's hands suddenly stopped, and then he raised his chin, "When?"

He Xin hung her schoolbag on her shoulder, and originally wanted to say that it was now, but found that Li Yanqi was still a little slow in turning around to face him, so she abruptly stopped her steps, "Wait for you... ...."

Liao Mei blinked and looked at them, "What's the matter?"

Li Yanqi turned his head and winked at He Xin.

"Good exam." He Xin stuttered and finished the sentence.

"Oh." Liao Mei continued to play the game, put down the phone suddenly after clicking twice, "Fuck, I forgot if you didn't mention it, the monthly exam is next week, I'm going crazy!"

Li Yanqi patted him, indicating that he had left.

"Ms. Li is coming soon, where are you going?" Liao Mei asked with a loud voice.

He Xin waved her hand and said, "Skipping class."

He turned up the collar of his school uniform, put on the earphones, stretched his hands over the two stools, and walked out generously.

"Fuck, it doesn't take time to be cool." Liao Mei sighed, "If my fucking legs are so long, I'll dance too."

Li Yanqi stopped writing, turned his head and looked out the window, He Xin came down from the stairs after a while, he pulled the white earphone cable and glanced at the basketball court, the sun shone thinly, overwhelmed him The cold and hard profile softened a little, and a few teachers approached each other talking and laughing behind him. He Xin tiptoed and ran with her schoolbag on her back, leaving them behind with ease.

Li Yanqi saw his shirt that was blown up by the wind.

With a little defiant cool.

When the class bell rang, he turned his eyes back and fixed on his draft book. He Xin had a black scratch on the half-written question just now. He tore off the page, crumpled it into a ball of paper and threw it into the He put it in the drawer, then wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose, lowered his head and recalculated.

After the commotion at the meeting on Monday morning, Jiang Zhiming stopped his flags and drums for a week. According to the unnamed person on the school forum, Jiang Zhiming went to Beitang City with his father to pay homage to his brother during this period, and he probably won’t come to school for a month. .

He Xin asked Liao Mei, a gossip expert, if there is anyone in their school who is more gossip than him, Liao Mei patted her chest and said, it must be anyone else, the identity of this unnamed person is a mystery, it should not be Liao Mei is not a sophomore in high school, but a senior high school student is more suspicious.

But which quasi-senior high school student is so full and so free to post photos of He Xin every day?You can't be a stalker.

The only ID information I found was that this person was a man. Liao Mei had the entire universe in his mind, and his brain hole broke through the sky. He said with certainty that this person was secretly in love with He Xin, and he was completely infatuated with Kyushu.

This may be beyond He Xin's understanding and acceptance. Liao Mei was kicked by him and wailed again and again, and finally Li Yanqi threw the dictionary away before she was able to survive.

This week has not been as confusing as when I first came here. Probably because the classmates in the class are all nice, but they are stupid and poor, and they don’t know how to do tricks to make He Xin unhappy. Although the teacher is a bit weird, he teaches well. He doesn't comment on whether it's good or not, at least he has a good temper, except for the director surnamed Qian, who feels upset when he sees He Xin, rolls his eyes to the sky, and wishes to have a string of words "draw a line with the bad student He Xin" on his forehead.

He Xin looked at the noisy school playground, lying on the railing with a cigarette in his mouth, and the people here were amazing.

It was different from all the places he had been in before, filled with a sense of contradiction on the edge of darkness and light.

You say it's dilapidated, but it's alive and well.

You say it's brilliant, but it's occasionally ashamed.

School ended earlier than usual on Friday, He Xin was stunned for a while, the high school students had swarmed out of the school gate, the girls passed by him no longer took out their mobile phones to take pictures, at most they walked a few steps and turned their heads, Once the freshness wears off, He Xin is like the ordinary boys in school uniforms, she doesn't have to look at him specially, and occasionally gets lost in the crowd.

Is it perfectly integrated?It's that simple?

Someone behind him whistled at him, He Xin turned around, and Li Yanqi threw a bag of things to him.

"WTF?"

"Instant spaghetti." Li Yanqi said, "Uncle Zhao is going out today to participate in the art troupe tour, and it is estimated that he will be out for a month. I have something tonight and I will come home late. You can choose to order takeaway, but I recommend eating This one tastes good."

He Xin opened the packaging bag expressionlessly, "I spent 5000 yuan just to ask you to cook me instant food?"

Li Yanqi replied calmly, "I'm sorry, I'm really in a hurry." After a pause, he glanced at him again, "Do you know how to use a microwave oven?"

He Xin stuck out the cigarette butt out of the window and extinguished it, "Fart your fart, fuck off."

So Li Yanqi got out knowingly and didn't get back until 10:30 in the evening.

Today he came back early from the hospital and went to pick up a job from Brother Ji Fan. He also took the bus from Xiyan Railway Station to Nanxi. It was a lady surnamed Meng. After arriving at the hotel that had been booked long ago, after finalizing the itinerary for tomorrow, Li Yanqi went back to work.

I ran into Pei Yun on the road. He probably just finished the lawsuit when he came over in a suit and leather shoes, carrying a box of cakes in his hand.

"Ji Fan is still angry?"

Li Yanqi snorted, "You're coaxing him with cake, but he compromised when he saw the food."

"Really?" Pei Yun smiled, "Children have a temper."

"Yeah." Li Yanqi rubbed his hands silently, "I'm fine, I'll be back soon."

Pei Yun suggested, "Come in and have a cake together, you must not have eaten."

Li Yanqi didn't really want to go in, the two young lovers were having a fight, why did he get involved?But since Pei Yun took the initiative to invite him in, it's not good to refuse.

He didn't know much about the relationship between Ji Fan and Pei Yun, he only knew that when he met them, they were already together, two men, for seven years.

The reconciliation process was a matter of course, Li Yanqi sat quietly and ate the cake, ignoring their scolding and sprinkling a ton of dog food.

After arguing with him for a while, Ji Fan ordered Pei Yun, who "forgot the seven-year anniversary", to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and sat next to Li Yanqi himself.

"Tired?" Ji Fan said, "I feel that your complexion is a little pale."

Li Yanqi scooped up a spoonful of cream and said, "It's not bad, I can hold on."

Ji Fan thought for a while and said, "I don't like to beat around the bush. If you're short of money, just tell me. If you don't have too much, you still have two months' salary in advance."

"Thank you." Li Yanqi smiled, "If I really can't hold on anymore, I will definitely find you."

Ji Fan patted him on the shoulder, "When you really can't hold on, it's probably when the earth is destroyed."

"It's not that exaggerated." Li Yanqi said.

Ji Fan took a sip of water, "You, it's too tense. At your age, it's time to have a relationship and relax. Most of the time, it's too tiring to be alone."

Li Yanqi looked at the time and it was almost time to leave. He smiled and shook his head, "Brother, who should I talk to? Can you introduce me?"

Ji Fan clicked his tongue, "Then I didn't know you liked men and women?"

Li Yanqi didn't answer this question. After silently looking away, he lifted up the packaged cake on the table, "Brother, give me one piece left."

Ji Fan waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just take it, we are just going for a formality, this cake is too expensive, it's not as delicious as yours."

When Li Yanqi stood up, his waist suddenly hurt, and it took a long time to get better. He blinked his sleepy eyes, turned and walked out.

After returning home, He Xin slept for a few hours, and was woken up by a WeChat video request at eleven o'clock.

It's Wu Rui, this guy hasn't seen him for a long time, and he's actually lost weight again. He was a monkey before, but now he looks more like a monkey.

He Xin stopped laughing after a few minutes, and Wu Rui told him something.

His father got married, just today.

"I didn't want to talk about these things that upset you, but...I thought about it. It must be more aggrieved to be kept in the dark. After all, he is still your father. Instead of hearing it from others later It’s better for me to tell you myself.”

Wu Rui's tone was very cautious, "Are you okay?"

Unknowingly, the cigarette in his hand had been crushed by him, He Xinyu calmed down, and said coldly, "What's the matter with me?"

"Fuck." Wu Rui regretted a little, "I shouldn't have told you, it's midnight, what if you want to kill someone?"

"I am such a law-abiding citizen, you think too much."

Wu Rui laughed twice, then sighed again, "Should I help you watch your mother for a few days, I'm afraid she will lose control of her mind."

He Xin whispered, "It's okay, there are nanny and doctor."

"Hey." Wu Rui said, "You're really fine, right? Let's chat immediately if there's something to do, and I'll disconnect from the Internet later."

"Broken Internet?" He Xin said, "Are you so positive?"

Wu Rui kept complaining, "Isn't it? It's such a miserable feeling to be forced to study. My mother is so mad that she wants to confiscate my mobile phone. It's hard to get it back."

He Xin laughed at him through the receiver, and after a second or two of trance, he had already cut off the video.

Walking around the house, his internal organs were on fire. He walked very freely at that time, thinking that he had been indifferent for a long time, and whether they got married or not was none of his business?But the facts were in front of him, and it seemed that he was blindsided by a blow to the head, and then followed by a manic depression that could not be ignored.

"Fuck!" He Xin growled, smashed the phone on the ground as if to vent her anger, then slammed the door and ran out.

It was just the beginning of the night life, and the street lights on the street were turned on.

The dim yellow lights flickered in circles, making him dizzy.

He Xin ran all the way, sweating all over, the night was bright, neon flickering, bright as if there was no end, he felt himself surrounded by light.

He kept walking, kept walking, the light around him was far behind him, faded all the way, and finally ran to the dark place, He Xin took a deep breath.

He had long been prepared to fall apart, and even made the choice to stay away from them with his own actions.

He dropped them.

But the other party didn't care, and readily accepted this setting without any struggle or reluctance.

Give up and give up, get lost He Xin, all our blood ties are nonsense, goodbye to you, if you leave, you will never see him again.

Only now did he understand that the loneliness of voluntarily giving up and passive expulsion are different.

Go home, no fun.He Xin looked up at the round moon, and suddenly paused in his footsteps. He said the word monk so easily, but he didn't know what it was. It was as far away as a dream that couldn't be touched.

Tired, very tired, I'm so tired after only running a few kilometers, what a big deal, don't be so hopeless.

He Xin returned the same way, and it was when she got home that she really fucked up.

He didn't bring his keys or his cell phone, and the door was blown shut by the wind.

When Li Yanqi came back, there was no bus. He was reluctant to take a taxi, so he walked all the way back. He picked a small road, went east and west, passed through a dark wall, and then saw the street lights. He liked this feeling very much. , You can see the light without looking carefully, blowing the wind, looking at the stars, no matter how bad the mood is, it will calm down.

It's a pity that he doesn't have a mobile phone as good as He Xin, so he can't take photos for Li An to see.

Thinking of He Xin, Li Yanqi frowned, wondering if this person ate or not?It's so late, you can't go home and have to work part-time as a babysitter, right?

Facts have proved that Li Yanqi's bad sixth sense is very accurate. As soon as he opened the door of the farm, he found a person squatting under the tree in front of him.

With the light of the mobile phone, I was sure that the person was really He Xin.

The other party had a gloomy face and drooped his head. Because his legs were too long, he occupied a very large area, and nearly three-quarters of the space in front of him was squeezed out.

"Are you sleepwalking?" Li Yanqi said in a daze.

He Xin's absent-mindedness didn't stay in his eyes for too long, and was soon replaced by a chill.

"If you're upset, don't mess with me."

Now He Xin who is cursing with a stern face, to be honest, is not very lethal. Li Yanqi thinks that he is like a bereaved dog, because he has not eaten good food, and loses his temper with people in a low mood.

"Oh." Li Yanqi said calmly, "I'm leaving."

After the other party took two steps, He Xin finally realized that this might be the last person he met tonight, and he might die of heat outside tomorrow.

"Brother Ta." He Xin stopped him.

Li Yanqi paused when he inserted the key, then turned around, "He Sanggou, what's the matter?"

He Xin felt that this was a little hard to say, he coughed dryly, his voice was a little hoarse, "Lend me some money."

"What?" Li Yanqi raised his voice.

"The door of my room is closed, and I don't have my key and mobile phone, so I can only live in a hotel outside."

Seeing that he didn't speak, He Xin urged, "I'll pay you back when I find a locksmith to open the door, or I'll be bitten to death by fucking mosquitoes."

Li Yanqi glanced at He Xin from the corner of his eye, turned around for a moment and turned the keyhole, then pointed to him at the opened door, "Come in."
