Boiling point

Chapter 18

"Brother, why did you bring two bags of lemon rolls today?" Li An's condition has been stable for the past two days, and now he has taken off his respirator and can walk normally.

Li Yanqi opened the curtains a little, wiped off the dust that was accidentally rubbed on his clothes, turned around and smiled at him, "I brought it for my brother, a classmate."

Li An blinked, walked up to him wearing slippers, and whispered, "Is it our new neighbor?"

Li Yanqi bent down and picked him up, "You are a fortune teller."

Li An laughed "hehe" twice, and buried himself in Li Yanqi's arms, "Because apart from sister Liao and brother, brother, you have mentioned him to me."

Li Yanqi didn't remember mentioning He Xin, he thought for a while and asked, "What did I say?"

Li An raised his arm and looked at his brother, "You said he was crazy, lemon essence." The little guy raised his neck and muttered curiously, "Then you make him a lemon omelette."

Li Yanqi held him with one hand and went to the trash can and threw a tissue, "Is there any conflict between saying he's crazy and making him a lemon egg roll?"

Li An stared at him with rounded eyes, "Of course, I hate Sun Xiaoxiong next door, I think he is crazy, then I will crush his egg rolls to the ground."

Li Yanqi smiled and touched his face.

Li An sighed, "But I haven't seen Sun Xiaoxiong for a long time, and I can't even remember his face."

Li Yanqi knew that his younger brother wanted to go to school very much. The first-grade child stayed in the hospital every day. Apart from taking medicine and treatment, he endured the torment of illness day and night. This kind of boring life is endless, which is very hopeless. .

Seeing that Li Yanqi didn't speak, Li An tugged at the corner of his clothes, his eyes sparkling, "Brother, can I be discharged from the hospital? I'm much better these two days, look..." He pointed His own face, "Did I gain a little weight?"

Li Yanqi hugged him distressedly, "Hey, your face is full of meat, it looks like a small dumpling."

Li An snorted nasally, "Brother, I will go out for a while. If I feel unwell, I will go back to the hospital immediately. I have always had nightmares these two days. I want you to sleep with me."

Li Yanqi lowered his head in silence and remained silent for a long time.

He could understand Li An's fear, his loneliness and fear of being alone in the hospital.

He wants someone to accompany him, no matter what he does, as long as he is by his side.

"Baby." Li Yanqi sighed lightly.

"You agree." Li An rolled his eyes.

"Barely agree, let's see how you behave these two days." Li Yanqi put him down, "Go and drink the medicine."

Li An raised his hand to give him a high five, and ran to pour water.

"Don't run, be careful not to fall." Li Yanqi instructed from behind.

"I know, brother."

Before the end of the lunch break, Li Yanqi returned to the classroom. He Xin, who was taking a nap, raised her head and stretched her legs to stop him.

"Stuff left."

Li Yanqi stuffed the lemon egg roll in his schoolbag, and there were several books behind him. He tilted his head to look at him, and the two eyes met in mid-air. He Xin rolled his eyelids and yawned sleepily. , "Lemon Egg Rolls."

Li Yanqi smiled, "Are you a bullshit?"

He Xin said, "Hurry up, I'm hungry, I didn't eat lunch."

Li Yanqi sat down in front of him, unzipped his schoolbag and threw the things to him, "Why don't you eat? I have a side in the afternoon."

He Xin opened the box, picked the biggest one and stuffed it into his mouth, "The food in the cafeteria is too oily and salty, not as good as your cooking."

Li Yanqi clicked his tongue, "Is this why you send me every day?"

He Xin closed her eyes, and a smile curled up on the corner of her mouth, "Don't accept the money, I wrote it down in my little book."

Li Yanqi felt that he was in a good mood today, and the two of them could speak a dozen sentences without beginning or end. This kind of state was rarely seen before. In school, this person basically had four words written all over his body-"Please don't step on it." Lei", even the school goddess Xue Wen, who has always been popular, tried every means to talk to him, but still hit a lot of walls.

Li Yanqi turned around and opened the book, He Xin roughly threw a pack of tissues from behind, hitting him on the back of the head.

That word above is too ugly to be tolerated.

——Let’s make twenty rolls tomorrow, it’s not enough to eat.

The rest of the paper towels were not written on. Li Yanqi took one to wipe his sweat, and the weather is getting warmer again today. He ran back from the hospital non-stop, and his back T-shirt was already hot and wet.

He Xin lay on the table and opened her eyes, stared at Li Yanqi's back for a while, then threw a pack of tissues from the drawer.

The afternoon session was going on as scheduled. Classes [-] and [-] were sibling classes, and major classes like physical education, music, and art were all taken together. As soon as He Xin entered the playground, he attracted the attention of all the female creatures present. There is hatred of male creatures.

There is a boy in class six, named Feng Binrui, he is extremely pushy, he looks good, he can be called handsome among the simple and acne-prone teenagers, but his personality is too stupid, Li Yanqi is right He also heard about it quite a bit, remembering that that person came to challenge him when he was just in the first year of high school.

When he was in the team, He Xin heard someone from the other team whistle at him, which was worse than Liao Mei, so he didn't bother to pay attention.

The hooligan whistle is still the best one played by Li Yanqi.

The ending sound is special.

He Xin tilted his head and glanced at him. Li Yanqi was upright, standing straight and listening to the teacher's speech, and bent over for a moment to roll up his trousers, revealing a small thin ankle.

The legs are really whiter than girls, He Xin's gaze landed on his feet impartially, she laughed in her heart and then turned her head away.

Feng Binrui, who had been completely neglected, couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and single-handedly blocked He Xin as soon as they disbanded.

Li Yanqi's student number is No. [-], and he is already standing on the first runway.

He Xin looked at him slightly turned sideways, and frowned. He couldn't figure out that he had put away all the sense of presence in his body, and treated it as a quiet ornament, so why would there be people who didn't have long eyes? he?

"Compare 800 meters later." The man stared at him for half a minute and finally spoke.

He Xin pursed her lips indifferently, "No comparison, no interest, who are you?"

Li Yanqi couldn't help smiling when he heard such a conversation before he started running.

Seeing He Xin walking to the other side of the runway, Feng Binrui followed, like a slug that couldn't be shaken off.

The physical education teacher Chu Feng was clearing the field, and when he saw two people still circling on the track, he immediately stopped them, "He Xin, who else is there, go back and stand up!"

Once again, Feng Binrui, who was neglected, wanted to choke, but He Xin seized the opportunity, "Teacher, he is sick, so he insists on competing with me for 800 meters."

Chufeng's eyes lit up, and he put the scoreboard behind him and said, "What's your name?"

"Feng Binrui."

Chufeng smiled, "For the last group, Feng Binrui, compare He Xin to see who can run faster. I will be the referee with the whole class."

He Xin fucked, turned her head to look at Li Yanqi and said, "What's wrong with this teacher?"

Li Yanqi lowered his voice and said with a smile, "The problem is that I like to watch people compete, and whoever wins will be recruited into the school team."

He Xin remained silent, the corners of his eyes and brows were stained with irritability, Li Yanqi was still stirring up the flames, "If you lose to him, you will lose face, if you win, you will be lost to him for the next two years—" Pointing at Chu Wind, "wrap around."

"Shut up." He Xin had a foul expression.

After being silent for a while, he took a deep breath and took a sip of the water next to him. At this moment, a loud gunshot sounded, and Li Yanqi on the playground flew out like the wind.

He Xin heard a series of screams from the girls around her.

Li Yanqi runs very fast, he has a deep understanding of this, he has seen it once at the train station, Li Yanqi chasing the thief with a wind-speeding electric engine, it is quite impressive, it is like a little flying man in Nanxi.

After a while, Li Yanqi passed the person behind him by half a circle, and passed a little more when turning the corner. More than half a circle!"

Li Yanqi easily threw away a large distance from the latter, and accelerated steadily towards the finish line.

He actually likes running very much, but usually there are too many things to do, and he doesn't have the energy and time to devote himself to what he likes.

Running gave him a brief moment of freedom, the kind of freedom that wasn't tied down by real life.

He ran forward, and the emotions that were suppressed deep in his heart and could not be relieved turned into a gust of wind.

The blue sky that he could see when he looked up, and the sunshine on his face made him feel very comfortable and at ease.

He Xin was dragged to the finish line by Liao Mei. He couldn't even see his fart clearly against the light. He squinted his eyes and raised his hand to block the glare of the sun. Li Yanqi crossed the finish line and stopped beside him.

Chu Feng recorded the results for him, and He Xin pinched the watch to calculate, it was very fast, similar to the speed of his own sports school team.

"Where is my hairband?" Li Yanqi took a few breaths and asked Liao Mei.

Liao Mei pointed at He Xin, "I was too nervous just now, so I sent you to He Xin."

He Xin stood aside drinking water, Li Yanqi walked up to him and stood still, his fine hair was brightly illuminated by the sun, he spread his palms and gestured with his eyes.

"I missed the starting line." He Xin turned the bottle cap tightly, wiped her mouth and said, "I just felt like someone stepped on me."

Li Yanqi was a little upset, "You did it on purpose?"

He Xin withdrew her gaze and snapped her fingers at him, "I did it on purpose."

"Fuck me." Li Yanqi said in a low voice.

Liao Mei was about to start running, picked up the hair tie and threw it to Li Yanqi, squatted on the ground and rubbed his hands.

He Xin adjusted her stance, and asked in a probing tone, "Why didn't Chufeng pull you into the team?"

Li Yanqi stroked back the hair in front of his forehead, tied the headband, and said with a smile, "Guess?"

"Guess you, uncle." He Xin gave him a middle finger, and then Liao Mei was already running with effort.

Fearful looks small, but his explosive power is very strong. He directly passed the temporarily leading Liao Mei from the corner, and then ran all the way to the finish line with good results.

He Xin glanced at Li Yanqi, "Is he so good?"

Li Yanqi brought Liao Mei a bottle of water and said, "It was made by Jiang Zhiming."

He Xin pondered for a moment, "Looking at him like that, it's easy to beat a puffy Jiang Zhiming, why did he make himself so embarrassed?"

Li Yanxi held the water bottle with his slender fingers and turned it around. He lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. It took a long time to answer, "I'm guilty, probably." Then he looked at He Xin, "Are you curious about him?"

He Xin flicked the wristband on her hand, opened her eyes and looked towards the side of the runway, "I think he's weird." She turned her head and pressed her leg on the spot, "You too."

In the sunlight, the two quietly faced each other and looked at each other.

"In my eyes, you are even more strange." After Li Yanqi finished speaking, he avoided his gaze, walked around from the other side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Come on, Feng Binrui is waiting for you." .”

Chufeng shouted there, "He Xin, hurry up! It's your turn!"

He Xin turned up the collar of her school uniform shirt with some irritability, and walked straight to the starting line.

Liao Mei gasped for breath and wanted to say a few more words, but when she recovered, there was no one around her.

"Fuck, I'm the one who just finished running!"

Li Yanqi wiped his sweat and waited with a group of people at the finish line. When He Xin was getting ready for exercise, he saw a tall and thin figure entangled in the crowd.

Feng Binrui next to him clenched his fist firmly, "I will definitely win you."

Hehe, He Xin showed a disdainful face and ignored him.

He has always maintained an indifferent attitude towards the so-called winning or losing, and he has no energy to challenge others, nor does he have enough passion to show his wings to others.

Where he is good, where he won the first place, how awesome he is, no one will care.

In other words, no one really cares. It is he himself who completes this matter, not the joint value that this matter will bring to him.

Liao Mei shouted at him enthusiastically to cheer him up, and the last few sentences almost broke his voice. Several classmates in the class whose names he still can't name are clustered together, also cheering him on.

Li Yanqi was far away from him, but He Xin could see his fingertips slowly raised and hooked forward.

A provocation that made his blood boil.

Gee.

For some reason, he didn't want to lose.

He Xin lowered her head and moved her ankles, supported the ground with her palms, and looked up at Chufeng.

"Are you ready?"

Feng Binrui nodded.

He Xin twitched the corner of her mouth lightly and nodded.

With a bang, He Xin rushed out first, followed by Feng Binrui. At first, the gap was not too big. After all, the latter was trying his best to win him, but when he was cornering, He Xin was very cheap. Showing off the skills he has cultivated in the school sports team for several years, he surpassed Feng Binrui like the wind around him.

Liao Mei jumped up on the spot, "Fuck! Brother Ta!"

"It's good to have long legs." Another boy envied, "It feels like He Xin didn't try her best."

Li Yanqi felt that when He Xin ran past him, every step she took, the beat was on her feet, rhythmically, flexibly, and freely.

On the second lap, He Xin slowed down again, and ran side by side with Feng Binrui, barely panting, looking very comfortable.

"Why didn't He Xin surpass?" Liao Mei asked.

Li Yanqi smiled and said, "Sneak on him, give him a little hope of winning, and then crush him in the end."

Liao Mei frowned in confusion, Li Yanqi patted his arm and said, "Look, He Xin is about to sprint."

After running through the last corner, He Xin accelerated with all his strength as if suddenly going crazy. Feng Binrui was dumbfounded on the spot, blushing and wanted to continue chasing, but He Xin passed him more than half a circle in a few seconds, and was about to approach In the end, he didn't even have a chance to fight.

The fifth class all became agitated, shouting and whistling, wave after wave.

"Damn it, I've never seen such a cheap trick!" A boy said, "He Xin is so fucking cute."

Li Yanqi stepped aside and let He Xin cross the finish line smoothly. As expected, he was caught by Chufeng as soon as he stopped.

He Xin lifted up her T-shirt to wipe off her sweat, then turned her head and smiled at Feng Binrui.

Arrogant and full of aggression.

Feng Binrui was discouraged and furious, sitting aside and glaring at He Xin fiercely.

He Xin didn't take it seriously, she raised her neck to drink water, the sweat from her forehead rolled down her cheeks onto his protruding Adam's apple, it was dazzlingly bright in the sun.

Li Yanqi pursed his lips, feeling a little thirsty, took a sip of the water next to him, turned around and walked to the shadow.

Everyone was still in the frenzied and excited atmosphere, surrounded by He Xin, yelling loudly, and the laughter of their fifth class could be heard in the whole playground, as if they were watching a celebrity concert.

Standing on the open space, Li Yanqi felt that the surrounding area was brighter, the weather was really hot, and there was a dry heat in the air that couldn't be dispelled.

The energy that can boil with just a little teasing is the unique characteristic of their class.

Goofy and hot.

Li Yanqi closed his eyes with a smile, exhaled lightly, and left the playground alone.

"It's not the Olympic champion, sister Liao, please calm down for a while." He Xin said.

"It's so cool! Is it annoying for me to praise you?" Liao Mei clicked his tongue.

"Blind." He Xin squeezed out of the crowd, not seeing Li Yanqi, and asked casually, "You brother Ta slipped away before get out of class was over?"

Liao Mei kicked a pebble away, "Oh, brother Ta doesn't like excitement very much."

He Xin waved her hand and said, "I don't like excitement either, so sister Liao, you—stay away from me."

"You two are a fucking match! Also, don't call me Sister Liao!" Liao Mei frowned.

"Have you ever learned idioms?" He Xin kicked him, "Do you know what a natural couple means?"

Liao Mei dodged his attack flexibly and disappeared in a flash.

He Xin leaned against the wall of the corridor to blow the wind for a while. The last sprint was too fast just now, and his calves were a little swollen. He shook his legs, and suddenly heard a rush of footsteps coming from the stairs.

A few people from other shifts were talking to the people next to them while running, "Who committed the crime? Why did the police come here?"

"I don't know, I heard that the police are in the second and fifth classes of high school."

"Are you looking for Li Yanqi? His father is still fleeing in fear of crime."

"I don't know. I have been on the run for six years. This time, the case of Fei Jin's father will be tried again. If Li Yanqi's father does not come forward, the case will definitely not be overturned."

"Yeah, after all, Jiang Zhiming and his family have a great career, and his brother was killed by someone, so don't think about Li Yanqi and Li Yanqi in this life."

The noise continued, He Xin's expression changed, his fingers tightened slightly, and the crowd dispersed, he suddenly jumped up, leaning on the handrail of the stairs, jumped to the ground, and ran towards the classroom quickly.
