waste

The cemetery looked particularly bleak in the cold and windy deep winter, and the festive atmosphere of the upcoming Chinese New Year outside came to an abrupt end when it reached the gate of the cemetery.

Two men in black climbed up the steps one after the other and stopped in front of Baishuang's tombstone.Li Xu wiped off the dirty mud in front of the tombstone with a rag, put fresh white chrysanthemums in the vase, took out the lighter and lit incense, and handed a stick to Li Wenxuan.

After burning incense, Li Xu backed away for a certain distance, he didn't want to hear what Li Wenxuan was going to say to Bai Shuang to miss her, and he didn't want to see Li Wenxuan staring affectionately at the black and white photo on the tombstone.

Very ironic.

He didn't wait too long, Li Wenxuan came over soon, with the smell of incense all over his body.

"Not talking to your mother?" Li Wenxuan asked.

Li Xu buttoned up the hood of the sweater, and walked down the steps with the pocket in his pocket: "I said it in my dream last night."

"Really?" Li Wenxuan was surprised, "What did she say?"

Looking at it like this, Bai Shuang must have never walked into Li Wenxuan's dream.Li Xu was quite happy, smiled and said, "Ask her yourself."

At noon, the two settled for lunch at a Chinese restaurant. It was rare for Li Wenxuan to come out with Li Xu. Although the other party didn't talk much, he still wanted to find an opportunity to stay with his son for a while: "The city museum was renovated last year, and I'm going to visit it. down?"

"No." Li Xu refused without thinking, beckoning the waiter to pay the bill, Li Wenxuan pressed his hand: "I'll come."

When he walked out of the restaurant, Li Wenxuan received a call from Yao Yilei. He responded casually and said before hanging up, "I'll be back now."

"I haven't seen you all morning, so the vixen came to investigate?" Li Xu asked with the worst words, "Worried about you going out to fool around?"

Li Wenxuan was invulnerable: "Xiaojue has a fever, I'll go back and have a look."

"How can you help me when you go back? You're not a doctor." Li Xu opened the car door and got in the passenger seat. "Let's go to the museum. I suddenly want to visit again."

Li Wenxuan knew that Li Xu was angry with him, but if there was a conflict between Li Xu's side and Yao Yilei's side, he would definitely follow Li Xu's side. For no reason, it was because Yao Yilei was not his wife worthy of the name, and even more because of his preference for her in his heart. This eldest son.

In fact, Li Xu did not have much interest in visiting the museum. He walked around here and there, and took a few photos from time to time to send to Shu Yuan.

Li Wenxuan could probably tell that Li Xu was absent-minded. In an exhibition hall with few people, he stopped and pointed to the iron sword in the glass showcase and asked, "Have you heard the story behind this iron sword?"

Li Xu raised his eyes: "I don't understand."

"I see you've been taking pictures," Li Wenxuan leaned over to look at the profile under the iron sword, "Are you interested?"

"It's okay," Li Xu continued typing with his head bowed, "I'll send it to my deskmate, he likes history."

"Same table?" Li Wenxuan looked away from the display cabinet, "Is it the boy who came to the house with Gu Qu last time?"

"It's him," Li Xu paused, remembering that he hadn't mentioned Shu Yuan's name to Li Wenxuan, and he didn't know if the other party thought of it when he helped him get the report, "He studies very well."

"I know," Li Wenxuan said with a smile, "Your Teacher Cui said that he helped you a lot in your studies, and I heard that you plan to compete with him in the final."

From where Cui Chanjuan came to this conclusion, Li Xu is not very clear, but as for who is higher and who is lower, the grade ranking on the honor roll is clear at a glance.

Back at school on the day of the end-of-school ceremony, the most lively corner of the campus is always the honor roll showing the ranking of the final exam results. On the list are the top [-] students of each grade, and the top [-] students are specially marked with red stars Come out, if they didn't take the initiative to apply for a way out, otherwise they would have to go to the key class.

Some people leave after not seeing their name on the list, and before leaving, they still want to envy others' achievements; .

An excited cry erupted from the crowd, Li Xu turned his head to look, the school committee member of his class blushed with excitement, raised his fists with both hands in a triumphant gesture: "My efforts were not in vain! I entered!" It's the key class! I'm awesome!"

Quan Haolang shook the head of the school committee: "It's just your luck, you happen to be in the [-]th place, let's see what other people want!"

Wishing——

Li Xu turned his face away, and was about to squeeze out of the crowd, but the loud voice of the school board, like a loudspeaker, sent the message to his ears accurately: "Damn—second!"

second.

The second place with 40 people separated from the No.40 two.

Li Xu glared viciously at the noise maker, but the other party didn't realize it, and rubbed his hands happily and said, "When I enter the key class, I will apply to the teacher to be at the same table with him..."

"Shut up, you." Quan Haolang poked the school committee's waist with his elbow, "Brother Xu is staring at you."

Li Xu knew that he shouldn't vent his anger on innocent people, let alone when the other party had nothing against him.But when the school committee didn't know whether to comfort or fawn on him and said, "Brother Xu, you have made great progress in taking the 42nd place in the exam", his anger could not be restrained and gathered in his right hand, and he grabbed the opponent's collar and easily lifted him away. ground.

The people around were silent, and no one cared about the score on the honor roll, but no one stepped forward to pull the two of them apart. Although they all sweated for the boy who was bullied by the school bully, their gossip mentality still caused them I chose a place not far or near to watch.

The tight collar made the school committee member, who was screaming with excitement just now, blushed, and the cough caused by the difficulty breathing was stuck in his throat, and he dared not rush out, fearing that the disobedient saliva would stain Li Xiaoba's face .

His toes tremblingly touched the ground, he stammered and begged for mercy: "Xu, Brother Xu, don't be angry..."

Quan Haolang was at the side trying to persuade Li Xu to let go of the school committee: "Brother Xu, if you have something to say, speak up."

"Tell me again, what grade did I get in the exam?" Li Xu strengthened his hands and pulled the school committee's collar into a ball.

At this time, how dare the school committee dare to say the real number again, the pain of suffocation made him unable to speak clearly: "First, as long as Brother Xu is willing, the first capital is yours..."

"stop."

A slightly cold voice pierced through the encirclement from outside the crowd, Li Xu unknowingly loosened his strength, Quan Haolang pulled the person who made the sound as if seeing a great savior, and whispered: "Shu Yuan, please persuade me Brother Xu."

Except for the unintelligible crowd, the familiar gaze mixed with complex emotions that fell on Shu Yuan came from Li Xu.

The closer Shu Yuan got, the more uncomfortable Li Xu felt. His pride was shattered in front of Shu Yuan, and the ruthless eyes of the other party seemed to be crushed hard on the mud.

"Li Xu, let him go." Shu Yuan stopped in front of Li Xu, and covered his veined forearm with his hand.

He didn't use any effort, but Li Xu obediently let go of the school committee's collar, and the school committee who breathed in the fresh air squatted on the ground and coughed violently, but the culprit grabbed Shu Yuan's wrist with his backhand and dragged him out. crowd.

The winter sun in the afternoon shines through the branches on the open space behind the library, and the blind spot where few people pass by. Li Xu pressed Shu Yuan against the wall, with a downcast expression on his face and the fierce judgment just now. Ruo two: "Are you satisfied?"

Shu Yuan looked away, the line of his jaw was tense, and his closed mouth showed that he didn't intend to answer Li Xu's question.

His shoulders sank, Shu Yuan's pupils shrank, Li Xu lowered his head and put his chin on his shoulder: "Shu Yuan."

The raised hands lowered before making a push-back movement, Shu Yuan's eyes wandered around the dark corners within reach, and he breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that he didn't find the shadow of the camera.

The disappointment was hidden in the voice that was suddenly close to the ear, Li Xu asked in a low voice: "Are you satisfied with my test result? You don't have to worry about someone disturbing you during class, and you don't have to worry about someone holding your hand when class is over. Wish, are you satisfied?"

He hoped that Shu Yuan could deceive him, so that he could pick up his useless pride in front of this person.But Shu Yuan just admitted the fact coldly, and told him calmly: "Well, I'm satisfied."

The last hope was extinguished with Shu Yuan's answer. On the contrary, what was ignited was the anger that was suppressed by him 10 minutes ago, and what exacerbated the sullenness was the stacked disappointment.

The difference of 40 places is nothing but a big deal to others, but in Li Xu's eyes, it is a river that cannot be crossed. It is a deep ridicule from his own heart.

But the liking that desperately wants to shorten the distance between the two parties can no longer be controlled.

"If you don't like my approaching, why don't you push me away?" Li Xu straightened up slowly, "If you don't want me to like you, why don't you tell me?"

His scorching gaze followed Shu Yuan's eyes, trying to find out the hint of dodge from the other's expression, so as to prove that Shu Yuan might have something hard to tell before he lied.

However, Shu Yuan did not hide or dodge, raised her face and met his gaze straightly: "I said so."

We can only be friends.

Don't go any further.

Li Xu was stunned, he remembered, of course he remembered, but——

It is himself who is obsessed, he is not satisfied with the boundaries of his friends, he wants more, not just playfully putting Shu Yuan's cold hands into his pocket, not just raising a cat named by Shu Yuan himself.

He wants to get Shu Yuan, who can accompany him to come out of the past that the other party doesn't want to say, and he can follow what the other party wants to do in the future.

The class bell rang throughout the campus, and the cold wind circled around the two with the cheerful bell.

Shu Yuan shivered from the cold, Li Xu suddenly wrapped his arms around the back of his head, lowered his head and quickly kissed him on the lips, and then left, moving quickly as if he was afraid of arousing his resentment.

This kiss was unexpected, his whole body was pressed against the wall behind him, his body numb and frozen by the wind still couldn't ignore the warmth that Li Xu had printed on his lips a few seconds ago.

He wanted to run, but his legs couldn't move half a step as if they were tied with tens of catties of sandbags. He opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything except to breathe out a ridiculous cloud of white mist.

Li Xu, who was standing face to face with him, softened his eyes in an instant, put his hand around his head and rubbed his hair reassuringly, and said with a decisive impulse: "Shu Yuan, you hate me. "

No matter how much you want to avoid me, as long as I can touch you, you can hate me as much as you like.
