Humph?

What the hell is "hmph"?Lu Xiaoyan couldn't stop his teeth from itching slightly after hearing this.Ling Xi has this kind of ability to end the topic as soon as he opens his mouth, saying that he is funny but not laughing, saying that he is annoying but not worthy of being angry, in short, it makes people don't know how to continue the conversation.

But this was considered a response after all, Lu Xiaoyan still patiently repeated the previous dinner invitation.Unexpectedly, Ling Xi replied him with two words without thinking: "No."

Lu Xiaoyan's voice suddenly rose twice: "Why, what are you doing tonight?"

Ling Xi still had that flat tone of exasperation: "It's okay."

"It's okay, you just wait at home, I'll pick you up in a car!" Lu Xiaoyan unconsciously tightened his grip on the steering wheel, "Would you like to ask three times for a meal between friends?"

Ling Xi didn't refute, but continued to insist on her answer: "I won't go to eat."

In Lu Xiaoyan's cognition, there is always an invisible chain between him and Ling Xi. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to drive Ling Xi away, Ling Xi will never abandon him, so Ling Xi refuses to follow him There must be a reason for going to dinner: "What's the matter with you? Can't you tell me?"

Ling Xi seemed to have been pressed the replay button: "It's okay."

The meaningless conversations about "whether to eat or not" and "do you have anything to do" went around several times, until Lu Xiaoyan parked the car downstairs at Ling Xi's house and still hadn't figured it out.The more Ling Xi refuses, the more Lu Xiaoyan insists on him accepting. For Lu Xiaoyan, what is more serious than losing face is that Ling Xi is out of his control.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Lu Xiaoyan saw Ling Xi walking over with a phone in one hand and a convenience store bag in the other, and he immediately opened the car door to greet him.

Ling Xi was listening to the phone, but suddenly there was no sound. He thought it was a problem with the signal, so he held the phone and shook it foolishly.Because he kept walking with his head down, he almost bumped into someone, he hurriedly raised his head to say "sorry", but saw Lu Xiaoyan threateningly in front of him.

Before Ling Xi could speak, Lu Xiaoyan snatched the bag from his hand, opened it, and found cup noodles, milk and a pack of dark chocolate inside.Lu Xiaoyan shook the bag slightly displeased: "Are you going to eat this for dinner?"

"There are also fried eggs." Ling Xi nodded, feeling nothing wrong.

Lu Xiaoyan was so disgusted that his mouth was almost twisted: "Just the shit you made... that fried egg can also be eaten?" He looked around, saw a trash can next to him, and threw the bag together with cup noodles and milk with a flick of his hand. Throwing them all in, then took Ling Xi by the arm and led him to the side of the car, and shoved him in rudely.

Ling Xi didn't struggle much, he was still regretting the waste of food in his heart, even if he didn't eat it himself, it's always good to leave it to beggars, wild cats, or wild dogs to fill their bellies, it's a crime to throw it into the trash like this for nothing .As a result, he accidentally knocked his calf against the door when he got in the car. In addition to a little pain, his pants were also rubbed with a black mark.

Just as Lu Xiaoyan fastened his seat belt and was about to start the car, he saw Ling Xi slapping his trouser legs with his hands. His expression was as bitter as it could be. He asked worriedly, "What's wrong, did you hit it? Is it serious?"

Ling Xi ignored him and continued to fight with the stain on his trousers.

Lu Xiaoyan stretched out his hand and tugged Ling Xi: "Come here and let me have a look."

Ling Xi still ignored him, and the movement of her hands changed from patting to vigorously rubbing.Lu Xiaoyan had no choice but to forcibly pull Ling Xi's leg over.In fact, Ling Xi is wearing a pair of gray overalls, so dirty that you can’t even notice it if you don’t look carefully, but with Ling Xi’s awkward personality, he will definitely magnify the stain countless times, and maybe he will imagine himself full Dirty and disheveled, Lu Xiaoyan couldn't stand it anymore: "Come on, I'll buy you a pair of the same pants and pay you back, okay?"

Ling Xi frowned immediately: "Why should you buy my pants?"

"You really..." From Lu Xiaoyan's point of view, Ling Xi was making a fuss over a trivial matter, but this matter has nothing to do with him, and he couldn't say much about it.

Seeing that the atmosphere was about to become tense, a little ladybug flew out of nowhere, passed through the half-open car window slowly and tremblingly landed on Lu Xiaoyan's tie.Lu Xiaoyan was a little annoyed, he squeezed his thumb and index finger to throw the bug out of the window, but found that Ling Xi was staring at his hand intently, his eyes full of curiosity.

Lu Xiaoyan figured out what Ling Xi was thinking, and handed Xiao Chong over, Ling Xi really reached out to take it.Lu Xiaoyan tried to change the subject: "How come there are seven-star ladybugs here, is there a nearby park where fruit trees are planted?"

"This is not a seven-star ladybug." Ling Xi corrected Lu Xiaoyan seriously, "This is an eleven-star ladybug."

"Ah?" Lu Xiaoyan couldn't figure out what mattered seven stars or eleven stars, "Aren't they all ladybugs?"

Ling Xi was doing science popularization dutifully: "The seven-spotted ladybug is a beneficial insect, and the eleven-spotted ladybug is a pest."

"Oh, that's it..." Lu Xiaoyan originally didn't want to pay attention to this childish question, but Ling Xi kept looking at him with persuasive eyes, which made him unable to resist.

Lu Xiaoyan can't figure out why Ling Xi always insists on some details that are considered insignificant by others, as if he lives in a completely different world from him.You have to know that he spent his whole life just distinguishing whether the people around him are good or bad, so how can he have the leisure to distinguish whether a bug is good or bad.

When Lu Xiaoyan sneered secretly, Ling Xi had left him to focus on the ladybug, as if watching a little ladybug crawling around in the palm of his hand was so interesting.Lu Xiaoyan tried his best to drive the car as steadily as possible, not to disturb the "primary school student" Ling Xi who was quietly observing nature...

Lu Xiaoyan took Ling Xi back to his apartment, and several friends also arrived. Lin Guangle and Cai Shimo sat on the sofa and played game consoles noisily, and Dai Zhiyou helped his good sister to be busy in the kitchen.

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Xiaoyan couldn't wait to pull Ling Xi to the side of the fish tank, and excitedly pointed out to him the few rare tropical fish in different colors and colors, showing off beyond words.Lin Guangle turned his head to watch the fun, and forgot to press the control button. The game was quickly lost, and the system gave a strange "hahaha" laugh.

Cai Shimo failed to break the record, and pushed Lin Guangle depressedly: "What are you looking at?"

Lin Guangle raised his index finger to his lips: "Shh, look at the children in the sunflower class in the kindergarten."

Dai Zhiyou happened to pass by, and listened obediently: "Why is anyone else here today? With children? Do you want me to prepare some children's meals?"

The other two didn't bother to pay attention to him, so Cai Shimo leaned over to Lin Guangle and asked in a low voice, "Didn't there be Xia or something last time? Who did Xiaoyan take a fancy to?"

Lin Guangle twitched his chin happily: "This is good, it's the most interesting to play with foolishly, anyway, I like this."

Dai Zhiyou sat on the other side of Lin Guangle, and persuaded him earnestly: "Ale, don't do this, really, it will affect the brotherhood."

Lin Guangle directly pushed him out: "Stupid, with your IQ, don't try to get a lawyer's license in this life. It's more promising to be a chef."

During the fight, the dinner was ready, and my good sister came out to greet several people one by one: "Director Cai, Datou, Jinbao, it's time to eat."

Cai Shimo stood up with some embarrassment: "My dear sister, I am Mo, and Director Cai is my father."

Dai Zhiyou doesn't mind being called by the wrong name: "It doesn't matter if you are a big head or a dumb head, whatever is fine."

Only Lin Guangle had the strongest reaction, rushing to Haojie and showing off his round baby face: "Honey sister, look clearly, I am Ah Le! Ah Le!"

Whether it is the name of good sister, Lin Guangle's actions, or the smiles of several other people, Ling Xi is quite puzzled. Looking at the side with a confused face, Lu Xiaoyan explained to him with a smile: "Jin Bao is the daughter of good sister who passed away." Son, it happened more than [-] years ago. My good sister has some health problems recently, her memory is not very good, and she often calls the wrong name, but she recognizes everything she should recognize. "

As soon as the words fell, the good sister waved to Lu Xiaoyan: "You are beautiful, go wash your hands and eat."

The scene was silent for a moment, and the three people except Lu Xiaoyan burst into laughter together.Ling Xi quietly asked Lin Guangle who was clutching his stomach: "Brother Le, who is Meili?"

Lin Guangle gloated and explained: "Let me tell you, my good sister's name is Chen Meili, her younger sister is Chen Meili, hahaha..."

Before he could finish laughing, Lu Xiaoyan glared at him fiercely: "It's funny, isn't it? It's a very happy laugh, isn't it?"

Lin Guangle shrank his neck and pretended to beg for mercy: "Don't dare, dare not! It's not funny, poof, it's not funny at all!"

He wanted to run and hide behind Dai Zhiyou, but unfortunately he was not quick enough, so Lu Xiaoyan dragged him into the bathroom by the collar.Lin Guangle grabbed the door frame and called for help: "Where's the security guard? Security guard! Someone is going to beat the CEO!"

Cai Shimo bumped Dai Zhiyou with his shoulder: "Security, did President Lin call you?"

Dai Zhiyou smiled plainly and honestly: "President, do you want ice cubes or candles this time?"

Cai Shimo added graciously: "There are also mustard and chili oil. I wonder which flavor the president likes?"

The three of them went to besiege Lin Guangle, only Ling Xi was left standing blankly in the middle of the living room, and my good sister came over and looked him up and down: "How old is it?"

Ling Xi replied obediently: "Nineteen."

The good sister smiled and asked, "Are you married?"

Ling Xi was a little dazed, her big eyes kept blinking, and she looked at Lu Xiaoyan for help, but those men were making a fuss and couldn't care about him at all, and the good sister persisted and asked: "Married?" ?"

Ling Xi pursed her lips in embarrassment: "Auntie, I'm a man."

The good sister had a disdainful expression of "I knew it a long time ago": "You really think I am confused, I can't tell a man from a woman? Let's go and eat."

Leading Ling Xi to the dining table, pointing him to a place to sit down, but just turning around to serve a meal, my sister began to look him up and down again: "How old is it?"

Ling Xi felt that the good sister seemed to be teasing her, but she still replied honestly: "Nineteen."

The good sister looked at him with a smile: "Are you married?"

Ling Xi gnawed her lips depressedly, silently turned her eyes to the corner of the ceiling, stared at the overhead light there, and tried her best to pretend that she didn't hear anything...

Good sister for dinner insists not to share the same table with everyone. She claims to be an old-fashioned person, and she must follow the old rules in everything. How can a helper eat at the same table as the host?So she picked out the biggest abalone and the fattest lobster and went to the kitchen to eat alone.

At this time, the show of Bright Star started to play. There was a TV in the dining room, and several people watched it while eating.Before the start of the competition, a group dance of the contestants was arranged. Because there were too many people, the camera was swept away, and many people couldn't even see what they looked like.Fortunately, Ling Xi's face is small and her facial features are delicate, which makes her more photogenic. The director eccentrically cut a few close-up shots.

The close-up has advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, it fully demonstrates Ling Xi's advantages in appearance, and on the other hand, it also exposes his flaws in dancing.Ling Xi has a good figure and well-coordinated limbs. He can always learn various sports quickly, but he is not good at dancing. The same movements and dance steps always look extremely uncoordinated on him. Wrong jump.It's okay to be wrong, but he behaved confidently in every gesture, completely in the posture of "I'm the most correct", and soon managed to lead the wrong people in front, back, left, and right.

At the beginning, the few people were still looking around in doubt, but gradually they all kept in line with him, so that their movements were completely opposite to those of the other groups, and they inevitably bumped into each other when they waved their hands and raised their legs. As a result, some people fell down and others laughed. At the end of the scene, there were still people with hands and feet, and the scene was chaotic. Before the music ended, all the shots behind were cut out.Although the instigator Ling Xi made a fool of himself, he left a deep impression on the audience.

Because Ling Xi was sitting next to him, the other people were embarrassed to laugh face to face, so Cai Shimo whispered to Lin Guangle: "Who is the choreographer of this show? Do you know him? Let him be careful, Ling Xi is like a nightmare existence. "

Lin Guangle suppressed a smile, and gave Ling Xi a thumbs up approvingly: "Well, Ling Xi, you've performed well, I'm optimistic about you. In the future, you can't just follow the road of singing, but also practice dancing well, maybe you can be a part of Island Dance King 'Dangdang."

"Brother Le, are you laughing at me?" Ling Xi asked solemnly, "Seriously, what do you think of my dancing?"

Lin Guangle could not help but ask back, "What do you think?"

Ling Xi thought about it seriously: "I think it's not bad, but there is still room for improvement."

Lin Guangle was choked by Ling Xi, and turned to look for Lu Xiaoyan: "I know some experts in brain science, let's take little brother Xiaoxi to have a look, this is a serious matter, don't be careless."

Lu Xiaoyan raised his leg and kicked Lin Guangle: "Get out, Ling Xi dances well, don't hit him."

Lin Guangle's eyeballs were bigger than copper bells: "Okay, Xiaoyan, I'll make an appointment for a double clinic for you."

Ling Xi was very focused on watching the show, and he only ate the two dishes in front of him when he ate food. Lu Xiaoyan had to help him change the position of the dishes occasionally, and even helped him peel a few shrimps and dip them in the sauce. in the dish.Ling Xi likes to eat seafood such as shrimp and crab, but hates peeling the shell very much. Every time, she struggles for a long time between eating or not eating, and finally chooses to wrong her mouth.

On the TV, a contestant named Cheng Che was singing and dancing hard. Lu Xiaoyan recognized him as the boy Sheng Kuang brought over that day. He was introduced to him as he grew up abroad. He was very cheerful and sunny, with dark skin and strong muscles. , Compared with others, he is indeed somewhat of a champion.

Appreciation is appreciation, Lu Xiaoyan couldn't bear Ling Xi's posture of being unable to take his eyes off, he tapped the edge of the plate with his fingers in displeasure: "Hey! Hey hey!"

Ling Xixun looked over and was a little surprised: "Hey, there are shrimps."

Lu Xiaoyan gave him an annoyed "tsk": "It's not that there are shrimps, it's because you are blind."

Lin Guangle, who was watching happily, smelled a little sour smell, and sang from the side: "You are my eyes, show me the changes of the four seasons..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he sang a sentence, Ling Xi interrupted him dissatisfiedly: "Brother Le, you are out of tune!"

Lu Xiaoyan also took advantage of the situation to make up for it: "Yes, I'm still rushing to shoot!"

After dinner, Lin Guangle insisted that Lu Xiaoyan stay by himself overnight.He always thinks that the house full of women is annoying and nagging. Since he was a child, he likes to hang out with a few friends here and there for a night. During this time, because Maggie went to the United States, Lin Guangle has been at Dai Zhiyou's house for more than half a month. , if Cai Shimo hadn't gone to live with his family, and the family atmosphere was more serious, Lin Guangle would have moved to Cai's house with his luggage.

Lu Xiaoyan flatly rejected Lin Guangle's request: "Go back to your own home."

Lin Guangle had a way, turned around and grabbed Ling Xi and asked, "Brother Ling Xi, can you let me sleep at your house for one night?"

Ling Xi nodded briskly: "Yes, but my bed is very small, if you don't think it's too crowded..."

"Okay!" Lu Xiaoyan pulled Lin Guangle back, "You sleep in the guest room tonight, but you are not allowed to smoke or eat in the room!"

Lin Guangle succeeded in his treachery, and swaggered Ling Xi to the study like a master, took out a photo album from the shelf and gave it to him: "Come, come, let me show you the years of friendship between our brothers!" It was even worse than Lu Xiaoyan himself. Be enthusiastic.

Holding the photo album, Ling Xi looked around and saw a large white sofa in front of the fish tank, so she walked over and sat on it naturally. The sofa is very comfortable, the backrest and armrests are high enough, and there is an inexplicable sense of security in it. feel.

According to Lin Guangle's show, he was obsessed with photography for a while, and most of these photos were written by him, so the pictures basically focus on the other three people, and he rarely appears on the scene.It seems that the light, shadow and composition of those photos are well grasped, and it also clearly records the details of several people from their student days.There is a rare picture of four people gathered together, Ling Xi took a second look carefully, the photo was taken in the mountains with camping equipment on his back, and a note was pasted at the bottom of the photo, with the date and remarks written by Lu Xiaoyan: Autumn [-], Ah happy birthday.

The characters are grand and stretched, and they are smooth both horizontally and vertically. Among them, the word "Le" seems to have been simplified a few strokes, which is different from the usual writing method. It should be a habit left by practicing calligraphy.Looking at it, Ling Xi frowned slightly, those words always seemed familiar... That's right!He had just met it not too long ago and was impressed!Taking advantage of no one's attention, Ling Xi quietly took out the note paper and stuffed it into his pocket...

On the way home, Ling Xi suddenly asked Lu Xiaoyan who was sending him home: "Brother Xiaoyan, do you know what day May [-]th is?"

Lu Xiaoyan was taken aback, puzzled: "Ah? May [-]th? What date?"

May [-]th is Ling Xi's birthday, Lu Xiaoyan will never forget it anyway.In his previous life, he reunited with Ling Xi on this day and took Ling Xi on the road to escape. In the end, neither of them could see the sun rise the next morning.

The neon lights on both sides of the street were flickering, shaking half of Ling Xi's face flickering, and he couldn't see his expression clearly. Lu Xiaoyan asked with a guilty conscience: "Why do you ask this?"

"It's nothing, just ask." Ling Xi had a look of shyness or disappointment on his face, and he turned on the stereo and chose a song he liked, "Forget it, let's listen to the song."

Lu Xiaoyan listened to the song all the way and sent Ling Xi home, and then waited downstairs until the lights in Ling Xi's room came on before driving away.Encountered a traffic jam on the way, a traffic accident happened ahead, the road was blocked, and there was a long queue of cars crookedly, unable to get in or back out, so I had to wait patiently.Anyway, not in a hurry, Lu Xiaoyan opened the car window, put his elbows outside, lit a cigarette and smoked slowly.

Across the street was the piano store that he had stopped to pay attention to. The light in the window was soft and bright. Ling Xi breath guitar.Thinking that Ling Xi would get a chance to cooperate with Director Feng An in the near future, Lu Xiaoyan was also happy for Ling Xi. He was stuck left and right, so he simply got out of the car and walked into the store, looked around, and planned to buy whatever he liked. Give it to Ling Xi as a gift to congratulate Ling Xi on getting his wish fulfilled.

Turning around, what attracted him the most was the guitar. He couldn't say why, but he felt very familiar.He just walked over to pick up the guitar, and before he could show interest, the boss had already approached him thoughtfully and explained it to him: "Hello, sir, this is a Loudon made in the UK, completely handmade, The back and side panels are made of Bastogne walnut wood, absolutely good stuff, although it is second-hand, it has been carefully maintained, and the sound quality and feel are the same as new ones, if you like it, the price can be negotiated..."

"Second-hand?" Lu Xiaoyan was a little surprised.He wanted to put the guitar back to its original place, but accidentally found a small strange mark at the corner of the bottom, about the size of the belly of a thumb. If you carefully identify it, the color seems to be a little lighter than the surrounding area. It is not too obvious when you touch it with your hands. The sticky feeling is like the traces left by pasting stickers...

At the same time, Ling Xi also struggled to take out his large canvas travel bag that never left him from the cabinet, and quickly found the anonymous greeting card received on his birthday from a pile of messy items.

He stacked the notes and cards he secretly brought back from Lu Xiaoyan's photo album, and held them up to the light source of the desk lamp. Through the transmission, the words on the two sheets of paper were clearly revealed, and he carefully compared them one by one.话,生,日,乐... Just as he expected, the handwriting was exactly the same, and the three characters overlapped completely.

Ling Xi held the greeting card and looked at it for a long time. She always felt that there was something close at hand, but it was covered by a thick fog, so she couldn't see the truth clearly.Lu Xiaoyan knew about his birthday and that he was allergic to sesame seeds. When he was troubled by others, he rescued him and brought him out of the police station... But who is Lu Xiaoyan?Lu Xiaoyan is a cowherd who earns money from women, he is gay, Lu Xiaoyan has many friends who are either rich or expensive, and he always treats his friends rudely and domineeringly... But Ling Xi knows little about everything else.

The red second hand on the wall clock is beating time invariably, click, click, click.Ling Xi lay her upper body on the desk, and pressed her fingers on the round switch of the desk lamp, constantly pressing it, lifting it, pressing it, lifting it in accordance with the rhythm of the second hand, and the whole room was lit up, turned off, turned on, turned on and off. Off... After repeated many times, he got bored, turned off the desk lamp and sat alone in the dark, looking out at the night sky through the window, where there was a big moon hanging...
