waste

Shu Yuan only took three seconds to adjust himself.

The so-called adjustment was nothing more than wiping his face indiscriminately, wiping all the tears that could not be withdrawn on his hands in the future, and then leaning on the bulletin board to stand up, but his legs softened and he squatted back, only to be grabbed by Li Xu's arm. Did not fall to the ground.

"What's the matter, what's wrong?" Li Xu realized that his voice was too gentle when he uttered a word, and he didn't have such tenderness when playing with biscuits.

After pulling Shu Yuan a few times, he failed to pull him up, and when he realized that the other party was pinching his calf, Li Xu simply squatted down too: "Legs are numb?"

"En." Shu Yuan sniffed, and sat down on the flower base behind her with her head buried.

"Aren't you feeling well?" Li Xu didn't mention Shu Yuan's tears. Shu Yuan would definitely not tell him what was behind Shu Yuan's tears, and he didn't want this to poke the other party's pride.

Shu Yuan stretched her legs and moved her ankles, raised her eyes to look around, then lowered her eyes.

The messy noises in the memory receded the second Li Xu appeared, as if the things he couldn't forget were just hallucinations.

"Stomach hurts." Shu Yuan lied and put her hands on her stomach.

Such a reason seems unassailable.

Li Xu naturally believed it: "Didn't you eat breakfast? Are you still in pain? Let me take you to the school infirmary?"

"No, it doesn't hurt anymore." Shu Yuan patted his leg and stood up as if nothing had happened.

His mood changed too quickly, Li Xu couldn't adapt for a while, and he was still thinking about Shu Yuan's face full of tears when he just looked up at him.He silently walked behind Shu Yuan, and Shu Yuan turned to look at him when he went up the steps.

Li Xu immediately felt that the other party had something to say to him: "What's wrong?"

Shu Yuan clenched his fists tightly, it doesn't really matter whether he says it or not, he has never intended to use others to help him with anything, but if it's Li Xu...

"Do you know Qiangzi?" Knowing about that person is limited to a common nickname, Shu Yuan recalled the whereabouts of that person when he left the gymnastics, and added, "A third year in high school."

"Qiangzi? What's your full name?"

Shu Yuan couldn't answer, he shook his head: "Forget it."

There are 18 classes in the third year of high school, and it is very common to have the word "qiang" in the name. Li Xu went to the third year of high school to ask Gu Qu to mention this matter, but Gu Qu couldn't help: "It's too hard to find if you don't know the full name." , there are two eligible students in our class."

"Can you narrow down the scope a little?" Ren Lio suggested from the side, "Science class or liberal arts class?"

"It's hard to say," Li Xu recalled Shu Yuan's bewildered expression when he mentioned the name, "Shu Yuan may not be clear either."

Gu Qu's thinking was relatively clear: "Have you ever thought about the relationship between Shu Yuan and that Qiangzi? Do you want to know him, or ask him?"

With Gu Qu's suggestion, Li Xu stayed by Shu Yuan's side all day, looking for an opportunity to ask him, and every time he wanted to speak, he swallowed it back when he saw Shu Yuan's indifferent look.

The last class on Thursday afternoon of a single week is the general cleaning of the whole school. Students who are not scheduled to be on duty can allocate their own time.There is no Shu Yuan's name on this week's duty list. He stayed in the classroom and finished tonight's written homework.When it was 10 minutes before school ended, he packed his schoolbag decisively and went downstairs, and found Li Xu playing on the basketball court.

This time he wasn't as far away as before, there were vacant seats on the benches by the side of the court, he picked the one closest to Li Xu and sat down, staring intently at the most eye-catching boy on the court.

He's always been able to get the ball to the basket with ease, and he has the most cheers from the sidelines.Shu Yuan couldn't figure out why a boy who was supposed to be very popular was so withdrawn in the class.

The other party quickly noticed his gaze. During the half-time break, Li Xu ran to his side, put his knees in front of him and asked, "Will you come to see me?"

Shu Yuan remained silent, Li Xu changed the question again: "What time is it?"

Just after asking, the bell rang for the end of get out of class, and Li Xu shrugged helplessly: "Is someone still coming to pick you up today?"

"I'll go back by myself." Shu Yuan said.

"Then I'll take you?" Li Xu asked.Someone called him from the other side of the field, but he ignored it, and waited for Shu Yuan's answer with a good temper.

Sweat dripped from Li Xu's temples, Shu Yuan touched his trouser pocket, took out a tissue and handed it over: "Okay."

"Brother Xu, are you still playing?" The people on the field shouted towards this side, Li Xu turned around and waved at the person: "Next time."

***

The black street car rushes out of the school gate like a beast. Shu Yuan has had a deep experience, and his arms consciously tighten Li Xu's waist.

Li Xu controlled the speed of the car, turned his head and said, "I'm covered in sweat, you don't need to hug me so tightly, I'll try to slow down."

The strength on the waist immediately relaxed, Li Xu lowered his head and glanced, Shu Yuan's two hands were only holding his clothes, it seemed that he was still afraid of his sudden acceleration.

Li Xu pursed her lips, nimbly shuttled through the dense traffic, and arrived at Jiaxi's mansion much earlier than Shu Yuan usually arrived home.

After getting off the car, Shu Yuan took off his helmet and returned it to Li Xu: "Thank you."

"Is there nothing else to say?" Li Xu pushed up the goggles and stared intently at Shu Yuan's eyes.With Shu Yuan's cautious temperament, she would never be willing to sit in his car after just a few words of coaxing, unless she has something to ask him.

Under Li Xu's serious gaze, Shu Yuan's thoughts were shaken.He gave up the plan and swallowed the finished draft: "Goodbye."

When he said these two words, he turned his head away, Li Xu missed the look in his eyes.

"Okay," Li Xu didn't force him, "In return for sending you home, can you answer a question for me?"

Shu Yuanfu looked at him again.

"Why did you transfer to Qinghe?"

The sound of cars roaring on the road, Li Xu's questioning was so soft that if one didn't pay attention, he could be drowned out by the surrounding voices.But after filtering out all the noise, every word of Shuyuan can be heard clearly.

He clasped his hands in front of him, and rubbed the thumb of his right hand on the tiger's mouth of his left hand, showing hesitation.

Li Xu smiled: "If you don't want to answer, I'll ask another question." He moved closer and asked with the same volume, "Are you a local from Zhujin City?"

Shu Yuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, this question didn't make him too difficult: "No."

After getting the answer, Li Xu pressed forward, "How long have you been here?"

Shu Yuan looked at him defensively, Li Xu took off the goggles: "Just pretend I didn't ask, let's go, see you tomorrow."

The street car galloped away with the rhythmic sound of the motor, and disappeared at the turn of the intersection.Shu Yuan couldn't help but frowned slightly when she thought of her own evaluation of Li Xu when she first met him.

***

Li Xu came to the rehearsal room early in the evening, and asked as soon as the door opened, "Where's Gu Xiangren?"

"It's not here yet." Shi Chengjin was eating a fruit salad, biting a piece of apple with a fork, "It's so urgent, what about debt collection?"

"I have something to do with him, but I didn't answer the call." Li Xu slumped on the sofa, looking at Song Yuenian's notebook, "Brother, are you changing to write ancient songs?"

Song Yuenian kept the document well: "Try other styles once in a while."

Shi Chengjin came over with the bowl in his hand: "Brother Song, let's have a discussion. I'll be the guitarist, and you'll be the lead singer. Is it okay? I sing every day, and sooner or later my throat will fail."

"Qiang——" Han Qiyun tapped the cymbal to attract Shi Chengjin's attention: "Don't shout too hard when you are doing business with Lawyer Shen at night, your throat won't be broken."

"I'll beat you to death!" Shi Chengjin put down the bowl, rushed over and grabbed Han Qiyun's neck and shook him desperately.

Gu Qu hurried over when he was about to go on stage, Li Xu stood up abruptly, and when he wanted to speak, Song Yuenian cut him off: "Why did you come, are you busy?"

"There is an exam that is scheduled to be taken late." Gu Qu took off his schoolbag, "It's our turn?"

"Hurry up, let's arrange the most difficult song." Shi Chengjin cleared his throat with a sip of water, and picked up the microphone.

Li Xu was quite absent-minded during tonight's performance, but fortunately nothing went wrong, but Han Qiyun caught him looking at Gu Xiang many times on the stage.

After stepping down from the stage, Han Qiyun joked, "Ah Xu, don't just fall in love with Gu Qu, be careful to tease you to settle accounts."

"Come on, don't sow discord." Li Xu slapped Han Qiyun's shoulder, then turned to Gu Qu and said, "I'll take you back today, I have something to tell you."

***

"Say it." After getting out of "addiction", Gu Qu said.

Li Xu handed him a helmet, Gu Xiang caught it with both hands, and flipped it over in his hand: "New?" It has a red pattern on a black background, and the pattern is a dragon on fire, bent into an "S" shape, which is pretty cool. cool.

"Well, wear it carefully, don't rub the dandruff on it." Li Xu stepped into the car, pointed to the back seat, and motioned Gu Xiang to sit on it.

Gu Qu squinted at him: "I wash my hair every day, so it's very clean." Unless this helmet is for a special person, it's so precious.

Li Xu smiled and said nothing.

After sending Gu Qu downstairs, Li Xu got out of the car, took out a cigarette and lit it, looking very melancholy.

"What exactly do you want to say?" Gu Qu asked, "Is it related to that Qiangzi?"

Li Xu gave him a thumbs up with the hand that didn't hold a cigarette.

"Shu Yuan is not a local in Jinjin City," Li Xu straightened his mind, "I don't think he has been here for long." He found out when he sent Shu Yuan back from Yuege Villa to Jiaxi Mansion last time, Yuege The area where the villa is located is not remote, but Shu Yuan is obviously very unfamiliar with that area. He is so unfamiliar that he has to keep looking at it on the way back, until he passes the road near the school.

"So?" Gu Qu couldn't quite understand, "What is the direct connection between this and Qiangzi?"

"Yes," Li Xu took a puff of cigarette, "as a transfer student who has only been here for more than half a month, how could he inquire about a person who doesn't even know his full name?"

"Then you mean they knew each other before?" Gu Qu snapped his fingers, "Remember, there was a transfer student in the liberal arts class. I don't know if it's Qiangzi, but—"

He changed the subject: "Are you sure Shu Yuan really wants to find him?"

Not sure, Li Xu answered decisively in his heart, but this did not prevent him from meeting the person who Shu Yuan could remember and mention personally.

"I am the one who wants to find him." Li Xu said.

Gu Qu was taken aback for a moment, and then understood Li Xu's intentions.

"Once you fall into it, you will have a weakness," Gu Xiang kindly reminded, "Li Xu, not everyone can be subdued by you."
