I was a stand-in for those years

Ke Chen drove quietly, neither of them spoke anymore.

Guo Zichen rested with his eyes closed, and soon fell asleep. When he reached the school gate, Guo Zichen was still awake.

Ke Chen turned his head to look at Guo Zichen's sleeping face, his gaze was always gentle, but it was a little different, it seemed to add a little affectionate flavor.

There was a cold wind blowing outside, and it brought a few scattered snowflakes, which could turn into heavy snow at night.

He took off his coat and just covered Guo Zichen when he woke up.

Guo Zichen looked at him warily, "What are you doing!"

Ke Chen withdrew his gentle gaze, and said expressionlessly, "I'll cover you with clothes, lest you get cold."

Guo Zichen pulled his clothes off, opened the car door, and said to Ke Chen before getting out of the car, "I'm very busy with exams these days, don't come looking for me."

Then with a bang, the door closed.

Guo Zichen walked quickly, braving the wind and snow, and hurriedly walked to the cafeteria.

Ke Chen followed him out of the car with his things, and followed behind Guo Zichen.

Guo Zichen walked into the cafeteria, rubbed his hands that were red with cold, went to the dining table and ordered a bowl of vegetable ramen.It was past eight o'clock, the cafeteria was closed immediately, and there were very few students who came to eat.

Guo Zichen took his noodles, poured a few spoonfuls of chili oil into it, and sat down at an empty table to eat.

Ke Chen sat in the empty seat next to him, looked at Guo Zichen, and asked, "Is this delicious?"

Guo Zichen ignored him, he stretched his right leg straight, stepped on the leg of the table with his right foot, Guo Zichen ate a bowl of noodles very boldly.

Ke Chen ordered the six-yuan vegetable ramen, and seeing Guo Zichen eating the noodles tasted more delicious than chicken legs, he also took a bite.

How did Ke Chen spit it out as soon as he chewed it, and asked with a frown, "What is this?"

Guo Zichen put down his chopsticks, looked at Ke Chen coldly, and said, "That's why I hate you."

Ke Chen didn't move his chopsticks anymore, and turned to him and asked, "Then you won't hate me after I eat this bowl of noodles?"

Guo Zichen picked up the bowl, took a big mouthful of noodle soup, took out a tissue and wiped the chili oil from his mouth, and said, "I hate you no matter what."

Seeing Guo Zichen got up to leave, Ke Chen grabbed Guo Zichen's arm, "Can you hold the things?"

Guo Zichen folded his arms and sneered, "How dare I? Who knows what tricks you're playing again?"

"No. I damaged your clothes before, so I will pay you."

"Also, you don't have a mobile phone, so it's inconvenient to contact you."

Guo Zichen took out the Nokia in his pocket, "I'll just use this, and call if I have something to do."

Ke Chen stared at Guo Zichen's face, and said seriously, "What if I miss you and want to make a video call with you?"

Guo Zichen, "..."

After hearing these words, Guo Zichen felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the features on his face twisted together, his expression was blank and surprised, mixed with extreme disgust and disbelief.

Guo Zichen is easy to understand, he speaks straight, and what he doesn't say is written on his face.

Ke Chen looked at Guo Zichen and smiled, "Why, can't I miss you?"

Guo Zichen took a step back and said in horror, "Who are you? Are you Ke Chen?"

Ke Chen took a step forward and approached Guo Zichen, "I am."

"What do you mean by what you just said? Do you miss me?"

Ke Chen said softly, "I like you."

Guo Zichen, "???"

The air was suddenly quiet.

"God, crazy!" Guo Zichen came to his senses.

He scolded as he walked with the dinner plate in his hand, wondering if Ke Chen had finally gone crazy.

Ke Chen followed Guo Zichen out, Guo Zichen wanted to get rid of him, so he walked very fast, but Ke Chen had long legs, so he followed within a few steps.

Seeing that there were still 500 meters left to enter the dormitory, Ke Chen suddenly pulled Guo Zichen to the path without street lights.

Ke Chen was much more familiar with the school's buildings than Guo Zichen, so he was dragged wherever it was dark and crowded.

This is a small hillside, there is a boiler room nearby, and everything else is grass.If it is summer, the surrounding area is lush and green, which is quite beautiful, but in winter, it is a bit empty and lonely.

Guo Zichen was dragged all the way by Ke Chen. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around him, and the surroundings became more and more strange, he felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them reached the open space on the back of the hill, Guo Zichen was pushed down by Ke Chen on the dry grass.

Ke Chen slowly pressed down, Guo Zichen was so frightened that his seven orifices smoked, and his soul flew out of his wits. He hugged Ke Chen's thigh and begged for mercy, "Brother, brother! Spare me!"

Ke Chen held Guo Zichen in his arms and smiled at him, "What are you afraid of? I just want to watch the stars with you."

What he said was weird enough, Guo Zichen looked at the pitch-black sky, and thought to himself that it's snowing on a fucking cloudy day, where are the stars?Didn't this lunatic want to freeze Lao Tzu to death?

Guo Zichen was frightened into a cold sweat, and he tentatively asked, "Chen, brother Chen, where... are there stars..."

Ke Chen put his coat under Guo Zichen's body, and covered Guo Zichen's body with the two coats he was carrying.

"Pfft, of course I know there are no stars today. Just kidding, I just want to talk to you."

"Say, what are you talking about? Is it necessary to say it here..."

Ke Chen suddenly turned his head and stared at Guo Zichen with piercing eyes, "Then you will go home with me?"

Guo Zichen let out a chuckle in his heart, and thought, let's talk about it here.

Guo Zichen's expression was seen thoroughly by Ke Chen, he didn't continue what he said just now, but asked him, "Do you want to hear a story?"

How dare Guo Zichen say no.

Ke Chen stroked Guo Zichen's hair and began to say:

"I used to have a very good friend."

"A few winters ago, around this time, my friends and I traveled to an island in the southern hemisphere."

"One night, on a cloudy day like today, he ran to my room, pulled me and said that he wanted me to go out to watch the stars with him, and I scolded him for being stupid and refused to go out with him."

Guo Zichen couldn't help complaining, you're right... When you go out to look at the night sky on a cloudy day, what you should see is not the stars, but your mind...

"He said that after half an hour the dark clouds would clear and there would be a brilliant starry sky. At that time, I didn't take him seriously. I was very annoyed that he was arguing beside me and scolded him. After a meal, I ran to the third floor to play with other friends."

"He went out with his camera and said he wanted to take pictures of the most beautiful starry sky for me to see."

Guo Zichen listened to Ke Chen tell his own story in a gentle and deep voice, and it sounded like a dream.

"and then?"

"Then, after drinking with my friends, I went to the balcony on the second floor to breathe, and found that the dark clouds really dispersed, and the galaxy in the sky was shining brightly, which was very spectacular."

Guo Zichen laughed, "Ha~ Then do you really regret not going with him?"

Ke Chen raised his head, a few tears rolled down his eyes, "Yes, I regret it very much."

For some reason, Guo Zichen felt that Ke Chen was very sad at the moment, and he couldn't help comforting him, "It's okay, it's okay to go later?"

"There is no future."

"he died."

"That night, he fell from the cliff, and even his bones were not found."

……

In an instant, the surrounding area became a little colder.

Listening to the story Ke Chen told, even though he was just a bystander, he looked so sad. A huge sense of depression hit Guo Zichen's chest, and he almost cried out.

"Feel sorry."

He couldn't say anything other than sorry.

Ke Chen just hugged him like this, although Ke Chen didn't cry or speak, but Guo Zichen knew that he must be very sad now.

Guo Zichen patted him on the back lightly, and comforted him, "You must be blaming yourself for what happened to him."

"But if he is still alive, he definitely doesn't want you to be trapped in guilt, and he definitely hopes that you can live happily."

"Whenever you look at the starry sky, you can think of him. It's like delaying his life. His soul living in the sky will also be happy."

Ke Chen sniffed and replied, "His soul is gone."

"why?"

Ke Chen said seriously, "Because I went to reincarnate."

Guo Zichen smiled, "Pfft~ how did I forget~ Such a good person must have been reincarnated into a good family early."

Ke Chen stared at Guo Zichen, and said firmly, "Yes, he will."

Maybe it was because the atmosphere was just right, Guo Zichen was in a mixed mood at the moment, and the emotions accumulated for 18 years were flooding up like a flood at this moment.

"Let me tell you my story too."

"I, I have never seen what my mother looks like. When I was young, because other children laughed at me for having no mother, when I cried, my father comforted me and said that Monkey King jumped out of a rock, and he has no mother, but He can change 72 times and has great powers.”

"I was very smart when I was young, so I wasn't fooled by my dad. I told him that Sun Wukong has great powers because he has a golden cudgel."

"Ha~ Then my dad bought a plastic golden hoop at the market and gave it to me~ He also told me that if any children laughed at me, he would beat them with the golden hoop."

"I said how can I beat someone?"

"My dad is great. He told me seriously that Sun Wukong still beats monsters. It's for justice. You beat people just like Monkey King."

"Tell me, is there such a father? Fortunately, I was born smart and sensible since I was a child, otherwise I would have become a hooligan~"

Guo Zichen smiled happily when he mentioned this past event, "Do you think my dad is very interesting?"

Ke Chen wanted to see Guo Zichen's smiling face, but there was not even a ray of moonlight in the dark surroundings.

Ke Chen hugged Guo Zichen a little tighter, and said the same sentence, "I like you."

The smile on Guo Zichen's face disappeared, he hesitated and didn't know how to politely reject him, then heard Ke Chen say again:

"I'll try my best to make you like me."
