【Yu Huang】Thousands of peaks

This Spring Festival has been muddled. Yu Wenzhou was laissez-faire and relaxed like ordinary people during the holidays, sleeping late, occasionally eating irregularly, spending a long afternoon tidying up bookcases, and staying quietly at home for several days.

His vacation is longer than others, and the whole city has resumed its busy life on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, but he still stands indifferently at the intersection, waiting for a red light.

There was another light snowfall two days ago, and there were bits and pieces of ice left on the road. When walking, there were constant creaking and rubbing sounds from the soles of the shoes, which made me feel extremely lonely in the cold winter.

He just came back from the Bookstore, bought two books at random after spending three hours, his mood didn't get better, but he became a little more natural.

There were not many passengers in the subway, Yu Wenzhou looked at his watch, the time showed [-]:[-], and it would be the rush hour in a while, but he stared at the subway station watch above his head, and then at an unidentified Why did I get off the train at the station I stayed at earlier.

This subway station is not too big or small. There are three exits on the escalator, as well as convenience stores, dry cleaning and cake shops.Yu Wenzhou looked at the map, leaned against the wall near one of the exits, and took out a book to read it.

There were more and more people around, Yu Wenzhou looked up from time to time, every subway station was a place where many people agreed to meet.Standing next to her was a teenage girl, wearing a school uniform jacket, with an anxious expression on her face.

Maybe Yu Wenzhou's temperament is very gentle, different from others, she found that Yu Wenzhou didn't mind looking at her at all, instead she asked, "Well, do you know what time it is?"

Yu Wenzhou held out his watch to show her: "Do you have an appointment with your friend at 05:30?"

"Five fifteen," she said, "they get out of school early."

"Don't worry, he'll be here soon." Yu Wenzhou comforted her, glanced at the crowd coming down the stairs, and closed the book, "...I'm leaving first."

"Thank you," said the little girl, "goodbye."

Yu Wenzhou followed the crowd and got off the elevator, standing in front of the two-way door and waiting.After a while, the subway came into the station, and he walked into the car. When the subway doors closed, he looked around. Of course, there was no empty seat in this car, so he walked to the front car.

It is not easy to move forward in a crowd of people.

"Excuse me... Excuse me... I'm sorry..."

It took Yu Wenzhou almost one stop to walk from this carriage to the previous one.The subway wobbled and slowed down, and stopped again. Someone got off on Yu Wenzhou's right hand side, and a seat was vacant, but instead of sitting down, he took a few steps forward and patted the shoulder of the person in front of him. .

Huang Shaotian turned his head, looking very surprised, Yu Wenzhou smiled at him: "Hi, we meet again."

Huang Shaotian looked at him with complicated eyes, hesitated and didn't speak.

Yu Wenzhou said: "Don't you remember me, last time in the subway..."

"Oh, oh," Huang Shaotian showed a dazed expression, "It's you."

The subway started to move at this time, Yu Wenzhou helped the railing next to him, and asked, "Did you just get off work?"

Well, Huang Shaotian nodded, his eyes fell on the bag in the bookstore in his hand: "You too...just got off work?"

"I'm going to buy books." Yu Wenzhou explained, "I'm a teacher and I'm still on vacation."

"That's quite happy." Huang Shaotian said vaguely.

If the relationship is not very close, the encounter on the subway will inevitably be a bit embarrassing.Neither of them had anything to say, they just stood there, being squeezed by passengers who got on and off the bus around them from time to time.After another two stops, Huang Shaotian suddenly said, "How was your Spring Festival?"

Yu Wenzhou tilted his head casually: "It's just the same as in previous years, nothing special."

"Did you not rest well?" Huang Shaotian seemed to realize that he asked inappropriately, and quickly said, "I just see that you seem to have dark circles under your eyes, so I'm sorry for asking casually."

"It's okay, you're right," Yu Wenzhou paused, "Actually, my boyfriend and I had a fight."

Huang Shaotian blinked: "Is it the one who texted you on the subway last time?"

"Ah."

"...I thought you two had a good relationship." Huang Shaotian muttered softly.

"Emotions are good," Yu Wenzhou smiled helplessly, "but there are some things that can't be done solely by emotions."

Huang Shaotian lowered his eyes, seemingly absent-minded.Yu Wenzhou added: "That day we broke up, and we haven't contacted each other since then. My birthday was two days ago..."

"What?!" Huang Shaotian raised his head in shock.

Yu Wenzhou smiled and said, "It was my birthday two days ago, and I wanted to call him, but I was afraid that he would still be angry..."

As if Huang Shaotian hadn't realized it yet, he stared at him for a while: "Isn't it... no, I mean, happy birthday."

Thank you, Yu Wenzhou said softly.

Before he knew it, the subway had passed several stations and stopped again. Huang Shaotian finally came to his senses, looked at the name of the station, and said, "...Aren't you going to get off?"

Yu Wenzhou didn't care about the loopholes in his words, shook his head, leaned against the railing and said, "I'm going to find my boyfriend."

Huang Shaotian looked away and didn't speak again.

However, at the next stop, he suddenly grabbed Yu Wenzhou's wrist and pulled him out of the subway.Yu Wenzhou froze for a moment, this wasn't the destination of any of them, but he didn't struggle, he obediently followed Huang Shaotian up the escalator, swiped his card to get out of the station, and walked to the ground.

There is a man-made lake near this station, surrounded by sidewalks and lawns for cycling and walking on both sides.Huang Shaocai let him go when he walked to the lake, the sky was just getting dark, the lake surface was muddy gray that is unique to deep winter, and the street lights were dim, so Yu Wenzhou couldn't see his expression clearly.

"Shaotian?" Yu Wenzhou called him softly.

Huang Shaotian took a breath, and turned to look at him with a struggling expression: "I'm not... You should have told me about my birthday earlier."

It's okay, Yu Wenzhou smiled.

Huang Shaotian fell silent again, with his hands in his pockets, the weather was so cold, every time he took a breath, a light white mist appeared near the tip of his nose.Yu Wenzhou stood beside him, quietly looking at his profile, his brows were heroic, but the shape of his ears was a bit cute.

At a certain moment in the past days, Yu Wenzhou even thought that he had lost him.

"I'm not angry," Huang Shaotian kicked away the stone at his feet, "Well, I was angry before, but now I don't feel that way."

Yu Wenzhou looked at him: "Then do I need to apologize?"

Huang Shaotian frowned: "I didn't want to hear your apology."

"What do you want to hear?"

Huang Shaotian swayed back and forth several times from left to right, from right to left, before he said, "I thought about it, I don't like to hide or be misunderstood by others, so I just go with it as it should." , I don’t want to pretend to live in the eyes of others.”

It couldn't be worse, Yu Wenzhou thought, the bitter chill entered his trachea from his nasal cavity, and then passed through his lungs, piercing into his limbs like overflowing ice water, as if a certain part of him would stay forever today.

Huang Shaotian stopped and looked at him seriously.

"But I, I still want to be with you."

After a long while, when the turbulent wind left his body, Yu Wenzhou regained the feeling of his fingers.

He stepped forward and grabbed Huang Shaotian's arm.

"Hey, it's outside,"

Huang Shaotian said in a panic, taking a step back.

It doesn't matter, Yu Wenzhou pulled him into his arms, and said softly: "If someone asks, just say that your friend is broken in love and needs comfort."

Huang Shaotian put his arms around his waist, and his laughter brushed Yu Wenzhou's ears: "Then you have to cry together."

Yu Wenzhou also laughed: "I was so moved that I cried, didn't you see?"

Huang Shaotian paused for a moment: "I didn't see the tears, but can you let me go first, I'm a little out of breath."

Yu Wenzhou didn't dare to let him go, if he saw Huang Shaotian's face now, he would definitely kiss him directly.

He still kissed Huang Shaotian's ear when he let go of the hug, Huang Shaotian coughed in disguise, and turned his head to look around.

Everyone was having dinner at this time, and there was no one by the lake, and even if there were, they couldn't see their faces clearly.The emptiness and darkness seemed to make him relax, he turned around and walked to the lake, picked up a stone and threw it into the calm water.

Yu Wenzhou walked up to him and stood side by side with him, and said gently, "I wanted to look for you tomorrow, but I couldn't hold back when I passed by your unit today."

Oh, Huang Shaotian said with interest: "Did you prepare some Valentine's Day dinner or something?"

"That's not true." Yu Wenzhou smiled and said honestly, "Actually, I haven't thought about what to say. There are some things I don't dare to think about. I always feel that I will know only when I meet you."

"I later reflected on what you said that day. I was wrong to unilaterally ask you to adapt. We should find a new way of life together."

"So I thought, as long as you're still willing to go down, it doesn't matter anything else."

Huang Shaotian glanced at him, laughed, picked up another stone and threw it into the lake, this time a little further.

"In order to show the sincerity of both parties, let's exchange a secret."

Yu Wenzhou smiled: "Okay, you come first."

Huang Shaotian hummed and thought for a while, "Actually, Ye Xiu didn't force me to tell. I took you to the bar on purpose. I hope others can see."

It turned out to be like this, Yu Wenzhou raised his eyebrows.

"It's your turn."

"Me?" Yu Wenzhou smiled, "I have no secrets, I just want to hear from you."

Me? ?Huang Shaotian turned his head to stare at him, even in such a dark environment, he could feel his burning gaze.

There are still many things that Huang Shaotian doesn't know, Yu Wenzhou thought, but he will always know, they haven't missed each other.
