casual and fun

The Provincial Expo on Friday was quite lively, there were several exhibition halls in the two main buildings, and no place was quiet.No matter where tourists go, they can always see three or five Yinzhong students in white short-sleeved shirts and dark blue checked ties.

Shi Nian and his tablemate Zhang Qinghao followed the tour route recommended on the Provincial Expo official account, starting from the special exhibition hall on the first floor, and slowly strolled to the folk custom hall on the fourth floor with the crowd.

Zhang Qing looked left and right, and asked softly, "Hey, Shi Nian, where are you going to go for lunch later?"

Shi Nian also looked left and right, and answered absent-mindedly, "Whatever."

Zhang Qinghao rolled her eyes: "I don't like to talk about casual things the most."

At the entrance of the exhibition hall behind three or four of them came in two more boys wearing Yinzhong uniforms. Shi Nian subconsciously turned his head to look, then turned his head away suddenly, and quickly pulled Zhang Qinghao to the exhibition area on the right.

"come over!"

Zhang Qing was so confused: "Why, didn't you just see this phoenix crown?"

Shi Nian pursed his lips tightly and pressed the tip of his nose against the glass, but his eyes were not looking at the cultural relics on the display stand, but squinting at a pair of figures reflected on the glass.

Xie Chen and... Yang Sile?

He had an impression of Yang Sile's face, the one who sat on a tree and played the flute and was criticized by the Academic Affairs Office, and without remorse, flicked Xie Chen into the Lao Shizi band at the club carnival, which accidentally became popular in the discussion area of ​​the school intranet transfer students.

The two of them are clearly in different buildings, different classes and different cars, and they are in the same nonsense band. Is it necessary to agree to act together in such a large park?When did Xie Chen get so close to someone? !

Some time ago, Shi was busy with the half-term assessment and had no time to chat with Xie Chen. He never thought that Xie Chen had become so familiar with this transfer student.

There is a problem, there is absolutely a problem.

He himself has been in the school band for more than half a year, and he hasn't gotten so close to anyone in it. Occasionally, he just nodded and waved his hands—of course, there is also a factor of forgetfulness. He has no extra energy and doesn't see each other every day. The seniors and sisters of the school circled around.

However, Xie Chen himself is a person who doesn't like to be sociable and likes to be alone. Now he is so close to Yang Sile, elbow to elbow, and cuffs to wipe cuffs, which is really extraordinary.

What's more, Yang Sile's appearance... No matter, anyway, there are two eyes and one mouth, and there are no flowers growing, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses are placed on the bridge of the nose... One thing to say, it looks like that Son... a little bit more stable than at the club carnival.

The most important thing is that when he looked at Xie Chen, there was always a faint smile in his eyes, and the words "I want to soak up Xie Chen" were almost engraved on the temples of his glasses.

In a word: probably the same kind, the situation is not good.

"Yang Si Le looks really good-looking, right?"

Shi Nian, who had been focusing on those two people from the beginning to the end, suddenly heard such a voice, and subconsciously nodded without hesitation.

"Ah."

Oh, it's exposed.

"Wow~" Zhang Qing smiled tensely, and then asked in a weird way, "Then how does he compare with Xie Chen? Who is better looking?"

Shi Nian came back to his senses, only to realize that he had been tricked, and forcibly saved him, "I mean the phoenix-crested monster is pretty."

Zhang Qing took out her phone and glanced at the time: "Wake up, we watched Fengguan 7 minutes ago, and it's all out now, Chief Shi Da."

Shocked, Shi Nian stopped, turned his eyes away from the backs of the two who were still side by side, and looked around as if nothing had happened.

Sure enough, what he thought was the display stand in Yu Guangli was actually a booth selling museum souvenirs.

"This way." Zhang Qing thoughtfully led the dazed Shi Nian towards Yang Sile and Xie Chen, "If I hadn't taken the initiative to follow you, you probably wouldn't even know where you forgot me."

"How is it possible, I was just thinking about something."

Having said that, Shi Nian was still not reconciled, and couldn't help but want to glance at the place where they disappeared.

"Don't look for it," Zhang Qinghao stretched her neck, lowered her eyes to point out the exact location to Shi Nian, "Here, it's on the stairs."

"Cough, thanks."

Shi Nian patted Zhang Qinghao on the shoulder, and didn't bother to continue to hide it. He directly leaned on the railing and looked down. The two of them were almost down the corner of the stairs.

Wait a minute, why did Yang Sile take Xie Chen's shoulder?Does he have no legs, can't he walk independently? !And biting his ears!We're all outside the exhibition hall, what can't we say openly?Do you have to get so close? ? ?

Zhang Qinghao leaned sideways on the railing, watched the excitement and asked without hesitation: "Hey, are you in a hurry, are you angry?"

Shi Nian gritted his teeth and gave him a chuckle: "It's so-so, it's okay."

Zhang Qinghao squinted her eyes, stood up abruptly, and shouted dumbfoundedly to the downstairs: "Fuck! I kissed you!"

Shi Nian changed his face in seconds, and his smile was instantly replaced by panic.He grasped the railing tightly, and immediately stretched out half of his body to look for someone.

"Where?!"

As a result, there were only a few strangers on the stairs who raised their heads and looked back at him suspiciously.

Zhang Qinghao pulled him back by the back collar of his shirt: "I lied to you, I couldn't see it long ago."

Shi Nian shook his hand speechlessly: "Is it fun?"

"It's fun, seeing you—" Zhang Qinghao cupped her cheeks and widened her eyes to imitate the world famous painting, "This kind of expression is really fun."

"Then continue playing on your own." Shi Nian turned and went downstairs.

Zhang Qing followed behind him with her hands in her pockets: "Slow down, Shi Nian, I won't make trouble with you, I haven't finished talking just now."

Shi Nian said angrily, "Fart your fart."

Zhang Qing strode up to the same steps with him, and bumped his shoulder with her shoulder: "I saw an Internet cafe opposite the museum on the way here, do you want to come together? Eat lunch there, save some time and play more .”

Shi Nian sneered: "I don't play games."

Zhang Qinghao chuckled: "The banner at the shop said that two people will get half an hour for free when traveling together. Chief Shi, good chief, let's just experience life."

Shi Nian: "No. I'm hungry and don't want to eat instant noodles."

Zhang Qinghao: "You can order takeaway! It's a rare opportunity, don't you think it's as exciting as jumping over the wall and skipping class? Think again?"

Back on the first floor, Shi Nian finally saw Yang Sile and Xie Chen again.But this time there was another boy beside them.

I have no impression at all, who is this?

While filtering faces in the broken memory, Shi Nian answered Zhang Qing's good words: "I don't think so, I won't go if I think about tens of thousands more. You might as well call your roommate and ask."

Zhang Qing paused, shook her head and sighed: "Okay, Xueba is determined not to join forces with me, then I will go by myself, don't tell others. I don't want to happily walk into the Internet cafe, only to find that it is full of our school students, and there is a class teacher who is fishing and law enforcement standing next to him."

Shi Nian said disdainfully: "Am I that kind of person? It's you, whether you can go in wearing a school uniform is a problem."

Zhang Qinghao: "This is a suburb, who cares? Don't worry."

Shi Nian reminded him: "There will be a roll call at 03:30 in the afternoon, please pay attention to the time."

"I know, I know." Zhang Qing jumped down the last step briskly, and ran to the gate of the museum without looking back, "Remember to inform me if there is anything in the class! Good brother, it's up to you!"

As soon as he left, Shi Nian, who seemed to be calm and composed, was not idle either.

He persuaded himself on the spot for half a minute, then let go of his impulse, ran to the depository to get the bag, and chased after Xie Shen shamelessly.

After taking the exam for half a term, I found myself a very competitive rival in love, and I couldn't bear it at all.He just wanted to see what this transfer student from other places was going to do with his Xie Chen.

The provincial museum faces the road, opposite to several vertical alleys, and there are quite a lot of fly restaurants selling Chinese food.

Yang Sile found a fake restaurant on the Internet, and planned to take Xie Chen and Chen Nan to try it.After all, the band has been established for a month, and although only the three of them survived the registration process, everyone still had to have a meal together.

Before, Xie Chen was busy handing in half of his works, and Chen Nan had to go home to accompany his parents on weekends. The three of them couldn't get together. Let's make an appointment in the cafeteria during school. Yang Sile felt that it was too perfunctory.It just so happened that the school organized moral education activities and came out to play, so it was just right to make up for this meal.

As a new guitarist who had taught himself folk songs and fingerstyle for less than a year, Chen Nan was extremely excited. He kept talking all the way, from recruiting new members on the school’s intranet to tonight’s informal roadshow. School uniform or private service.

Xie Chen didn't talk much, he just interrupted his dangerous idea of ​​proposing to wear an afro wig, a high-waisted leather jacket and put rivets on the canvas shoes while waiting for the red light.

"I don't have time to go back to the dormitory to change clothes, just school uniform."

Chen Nan also felt that it was a pity: "It's the first performance, really don't you want to do something special?"

Yang Sile: "You wear it and stand in the middle."

Chen Nan: "If I can get this equipment, I will stand in the middle, and I will be the next one to debut."

Xie Chen looked at Chen Nan with a half-smile: "Are you familiar with the pieces you are going to play today?"

Chen Nan immediately pulled Yang Sile between him and Xie Chen: "...I really don't deserve it, I should be the captain in C."

When the green light came on, the three of them crossed the street to find a restaurant.

The location of Maocai restaurant is deep and small, almost at the end of the alley, but there are many customers.It was time for dinner, and there was only the last empty table on the curb in the shop.

Chen Nan opened the bench and sat down, and looked at the inner seat with great interest: "So the business in the suburbs is so easy?"

Yang Sile took out a few pieces of paper and wiped off the greasy oil stains on the wooden table: "There is a food broadcaster who specializes in visiting the store, and the evaluation is very high, so the business is so good."

Xie Chen frowned imperceptibly, wiped the chair surface and the back of the chair twice, and sat down opposite them uncomfortably.

He has never been to this kind of restaurant, and his mother will never allow him to eat such heavy oil and salty meals in such a place with obvious unsanitary conditions, so that he does not know what to do if he wants to integrate into this environment. Embarrassment can hardly be concealed.

The busy waiter saw a table of new customers outside the store, and swiftly put a plastic-wrapped menu covered with old stains on their table, and then took out a small notebook and a pen from his apron pocket , I am ready to remember the name of the dish.

"Our restaurant has special small bowls of maocai. The signatures are mao's tenderloin, mao's brains, and mao's rabbit belly. Do you want a portion for the four of you?"

Xie Chenqing didn't want to take Yang Sile's face off, cleared his throat and tried to pretend to be a customer who was very skilled in similar scenes.

"Four? There are only three of us."

The waiter pointed behind him with a ballpoint pen: "Aren't you together? I see that you all wear the same clothes."

He hadn't spoken for half a minute, and looked at Yang Sile somewhere with a complicated face: "..."

Chen Nan, who discovered it at the same time, couldn't help sighing softly: "It's all there. Gossip actor, gossip heroine," he looked at Yang Sile sympathetically, "and our most innocent second male cannon fodder."

Xie Chen looked back at the two of them with a dazed expression, only to find a student from Yinzhong standing behind him who was looking up at the promotional light box.

He took a closer look——

"...Shi, Shi Nian?"

Hearing the sound, Shi Nian lowered his head, looking even more surprised than him: "Xie Chen? What a coincidence, you're here for lunch too?"

Chen Nan leaned closer to Yang Sile's ear: "This is too humble... right..."

Yang Sile couldn't see it, and explained for Shi Nian: "It might really be a coincidence."

Chen Nan: "There are so many alleys next door, and so many shops in front of us, why did we meet here? Do you think there are people in Yinzhong besides us?"

The waiter tactfully urged: "Would you like to order now or later?"

Yang Sile smiled at the waiter: "I'm sorry, let's look at the menu again, and call you when we've made up our minds."

In a completely unfamiliar environment and a headache-inducing coincidence, Xie Chen was so at a loss that his ears turned red, and he didn't know how to proceed with the words.

Yang Sile saw Shi Nian standing in the aisle in the center of the store with a backpack on his back. As time went by, his smile became more and more rigid, and he could hardly hold on. It was like a child who brought his most cherished toy to kindergarten to share with his classmates. But still no one was willing to take a distracted look at him, so he had to stand alone in the corner crying poor kid.

This reminded him of the third grade of primary school, when Shi Nian was called to stand behind the classroom by an angry teacher because he couldn't stay in his seat, he also verbally said it didn't matter, and hid in the two of them's favorite place after school Behind the rostrum, he slapped his palms and twisted his legs, while crying so much.

Yang Sile suddenly felt that the "Chief Shi" who had excellent grades and shined in the school band might really be better than "Niannian".

At least it's better than Nian Nian, who chased the boy he liked to a fly restaurant.

In fact, Shi Nian regretted it himself.At that time, it was better to go to the Internet cafe with Zhang Qinghao, he would rather sit in front of the computer on the hook and think about it, and don't want to see Xie Chen's embarrassment, embarrassment and boredom.

"It seems that there is no room, I..."

"Just sit here, next to Xie Chen."

The two spoke at the same time, Yang Sile pulled another piece of toilet paper, and took the initiative to re-wipe the area on Xie Chen's left in front of Shi Nian.

Shi Nian was stunned, and immediately forgot the idea of ​​"Yang Si Le is a reserve of his rival in love".

Yang Sile is indeed very good-looking, even if he doesn't wear glasses, he is not as unreliable as he thought.

Xie Chen seemed to understand that he was willing to get so close to him.

"Sit down, you're welcome, we're all classmates."

Chen Nan cheered and said: "Yeah, you may not know us, but we know you, super awesome Chief Shi! Don't be shy."

Xie Chen: "..."

You don't have to be embarrassed.

Shi Nian opened the stool and sat down, not daring to look at Xie Chen.

Although in the past when he looked at Xie Chen from afar in the audience, he never felt ashamed of his gaze.

"Whatever you want to eat, you guys order first." Yang Sile turned the menu between him and Xie Chen.

Xie Chen didn't want people to know that it was his first time to come to this kind of place, and he didn't know how to order food at all, so he opened his face and spit out two omnipotent words: "Whatever."

Shi Nian pushed the menu back: "I can do whatever I want."

Chen Nan thought to himself: Damn it, husbands and wives are really perfect.

"It's really casual?" Yang Sile didn't play football with them. He spent a whole morning in the museum and was starving to death, "Then I'll order."

"Sister! Order here!" He summoned the waiter just now, and almost finished reporting the name of the dish in one breath, "I want a beef tenderloin, a rabbit belly, a goose intestine, a shrimp dumpling, and four bowls of rice. How spicy can you eat? Do you want to eat coriander?"

Chen Nan: "Eat, the spicier the better."

Xie Chen didn't know his own limit. According to his mother Cheng Hui's consistent statement, eating too much chili will damage the sensitivity of taste, so try to avoid it.

But Cheng Hui is not here now, he can eat as spicy as he wants.

"Spicier."

Sure enough, twisted melons are not sweet, because twisted melons are spicy.Shi Nian felt that it was too difficult for him, he couldn't eat spicy food at all!

"Then make it a bit more spicy..."

Yang Sile looked at him with a half-smile: "Are you sure?"

Shi Nian was a little puzzled: "Why do you only ask me?"

"Okay, then order the spiciest." Yang Sile returned the menu to the waiter, and told him again, "Sister, give us more spicy millet, every bowl is full, please hurry up."

Shi Nian: "..."

Yang Sile still doesn't look good, even with glasses on!

"Meet at 03:30, can we get on the bus at four o'clock?" Chen Nan casually picked up a topic to interrupt the delicate silence that filled the room of the four.

Clap clap clap.

Yang Sile poked open the plastic film covering the bowls and chopsticks with his chopsticks, and distributed the tableware in front of everyone: "It should be fine if there are no accidents. It's about five o'clock to school."

Xie Chen sat upright: "I brought the bass back and sent it to the museum, so I don't have to go to school to get it later."

Chen Nan snapped her fingers: "I also brought a guitar!"

Yang Sile: "I entrusted my mother to put the drum set and stereo in the nearby stationery store for me. When the time comes, I just need to move it to the venue and assemble it."

Shi Nian couldn't get in the way, so he simply focused all his attention on Yang Sile who was directly opposite him.He had to remember this person who threatened him well.

Chen Nan hugged Yang Sile's arm and howled: "Auntie is so kind! If I ask my mother to help me unpack such a large set of musical instruments, she will only let me climb so far. Brother Yang, Remember to ask our mother for me, is she still short of a son?"

Yang Sile regretfully parted the ten fingers on his arms, and sat a little further away: "I'm sorry Brother Nan, our lives are a bit messed up, my mother probably won't accept it."

Appeared!Sensitive to physical contact with boys!

Shi Nian's eyes were bright, and he asked, "Do you have a performance tonight?"

"Yes," Chen Nan showed off, "Our band's first road show!"

Yang Sile said calmly: "It's not a serious performance, I just want to practice my courage and see if I dare to play in front of a large audience."

Beef tenderloin, rabbit belly, goose intestines and rice are served.

Shi Nian didn't move his chopsticks in a hurry, and asked, "Where is the place?"

"Binjiang Square." Yang Sile picked up his chopsticks, "Let's eat."

Chen Nan added: "It took me a whole weekend to compete with the aunts dancing in the square for the socket before I got it done."

Xie Chen picked up the bowl: "Actually, they don't use sockets and power strips at all."

Yang Sile pulled away the coriander on the surface, trying to grab a piece of tenderloin to satisfy his hunger, but his chopsticks stopped halfway.

"What's the name of your band?" Shi Nian finally waited until Xie Chen spoke. He didn't notice Yang Sile's abnormality at all, and continued to ask, "Who else? Why didn't you come with you?"

Chen Nan's tool person attribute is online: "At the club carnival, all the positions were recruited, but Brother Yang read the answers on their registration form and said they couldn't get along with us, so they were confiscated in the end. Now there are only three of us. .As for the name..."

In front of Shi Nian was the bowl of rabbit belly. He didn't like to eat animal offal, so he planned to pick up the fried soybeans that were sprinkled on the coriander leaves after they were cooked.

The most fragrant of maocai is this kind of fried soybeans that have not been soaked in oil.

"What's wrong with the name? Didn't you have time to get it?"

Before the soybeans on the tip of the chopsticks left the coriander leaves, they were caught off guard by another pair of chopsticks and fell back into the bowl.

"can not eat."

Shi Nian raised his head to meet Yang Sile's eyes, momentarily stunned by the seriousness in them.

"what……"

Yang Sile lowered his eyelashes, and simply held Shi Nian's chopsticks, raising them a bit.

"Niannian, you are not allowed to eat this."

"Oh... well... thank you—"

When Shi Nian subconsciously said this, his brain went blank without warning, his throat seemed to be choked by something inexplicably, and he couldn't continue.

wrong.

All too familiar, really all too familiar.He must have experienced a similar scene, and there must be something left to say afterwards.But he couldn't remember.

Who are you thanking?

Who is it to thank?

Although Chen Nan didn't want to break the mysterious atmosphere between Shi Nian and Yang Sile, he couldn't help his curiosity.

"Uh, so what, why do you want to thank...?" He asked Shi Nian weakly.

Xie Chen wiped his mouth, as if he already knew the correct answer, and was not surprised by this.

"Because you have known each other before." He looked directly at Yang Sile, who was diagonally opposite, with deep eyes, "Right?"

Shi Nian was flustered and flustered, he couldn't tell whether it was because of Yang Sile's intimate "Nian Nian" and the order that the older brother stopped the younger brother, or because of the caring shown by Xie Chen's question.

He turned his head to look at Xie Chen with a flushed face, and denied it without thinking: "No! Xie Chen, I don't know him!"

Hearing this, Yang Sile slowly retracted his chopsticks, lowered his head to take a mouthful of rice, and didn't even look at Shi Nian again.

"It's up to you, eat it or not, and it's none of my business if you die from it."

The author has something to say: Silly son, thank me, your mother is a guest.
