not because of love

Li Che and Li Jing went back to Dongcheng together, and they didn't even go to the final exam. They squinted their eyes and looked out of the window along the way. Li Jing didn't dare to disturb Li Che, and kept silent all the time, and then fell asleep for some reason. When he woke up, he was covered with Li Che's coat, Li Jing glanced at Li Che, and found that he was still maintaining his original movements, the curtains were drawn, and he couldn't see Li Che's expression through the window.

After arriving in Dongcheng, they took a taxi home. It was already after dinner when they arrived home. Li Che's mother knew that they were coming back today, so she waited until she heard the movement downstairs, and hurriedly got up from the sofa, and opened the door on the second floor first. , and then ran to the kitchen to heat up the dishes.

Li Jing was the only one who came upstairs. Li Che was sitting on the steps downstairs smoking a cigarette. Li Che's mother leaned out on the balcony to have a look, frowned and hesitated for a while, but still didn't call him. After it was set on the table, Li Jing was asked to sit down to eat first, then he took a thick coat and put it on, and went down to look at Li Che.

The lights on the first floor were not turned on, and Li Che was still sitting outside the door and did not go in.In winter, it gets dark very quickly. At this time, you can already see half of the crescent moon when you look up, but it is a bit lonely, and there is not a single star around it. The cold moonlight shines down lightly, reflecting on Li Che who is also lonely.

Li Che's mother watched Li Che's back for a long time before she walked over and sat down beside Li Che.

Li Che moved his neck, showing an ugly smile: "Mom, why did you come down? You call me upstairs and I go up."

"Your sister said, are you having trouble with your roommate?"

Li Che smiled and nodded, there was still a moderate smell of tobacco on his lips: "Yes, it doesn't matter, I will take care of it myself."

"Honestly, is there...something wrong with the boy who came to our house last time? Or have you...separated?" Li Che's mother stared into Li Che's eyes, not letting go of any of his evasive gestures. mood.

Li Che stood up, patted his pants, and stretched out a hand to his mother: "It's cold, let's go up, I'm a little hungry."

If there is no answer, it is the default.

Li Che's mother held Li Che's hand, and when she stood up, she couldn't help but patted Li Che's head, hesitated again and again, but still only sighed and didn't say much.

That night, Li Che didn't sleep very well. His sleep quality has been poor since he was a child, and he often tossed and turned trying to fall asleep, but that night, he closed his eyes and didn't feel sleepy at all. He seemed very energetic, but his limbs were weak. In the middle of the night, Li Che even had a headache. Li Che suddenly opened his eyes, lifted the quilt and sat up, took out WeChat on his mobile phone, and deleted Yan Lei from the friend list.When his fingertips touched Yan Lei's name, he trembled slightly, but he still managed to delete it without hesitation.

This holiday was not very pleasant.

Li Che originally wanted to spend good time with his family, and put in ten thousand efforts to put on a smile that he thought was relaxed, but Li Che's mother just rubbed Li Che's hair, telling him not to do this, and pay more attention to rest, saying that he was in good spirits. Very bad, looking more and more haggard.

Li Che had no choice but to find something for himself, to work part-time as a cashier at a convenience store close to his home. As the New Year approached, people would go to shopping malls for their purchases. The convenience store didn't have much business, so Li Che couldn't get busy. Yan Lei was still in his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it even though he tried his best.

During the Chinese New Year, the convenience store was closed, and Li Che sat in his room every day, listening to music with headphones on, not going anywhere.

The phone is new, and there is not a single photo of Yan Lei in it.

Only now did he understand that the longing described in the book was true.He has never been so eager to see a person, wants to stand in front of him, hug him tightly, just hugging is enough.

Holding the phone until his hands were cold, he turned on the screen tremblingly and called Tang Jia.

It took Tang Jia a long time to answer the call. There was a lot of noise on the other end of the phone. It seemed that there were many people. After a while, it gradually quieted down. There was a sound of closing the door, and Tang Jia said, "Ah Che, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year." He didn't speak for a long time, his voice was so hoarse that he was unfamiliar.

"Think... Leilei?" Tang Jia asked tentatively.

"Always."

"Don't you dare to contact him?"

"I can not."

"He should be fine recently. It's just me, Brother Mu, who asked you to take a picture. Doesn't he have a good relationship with Ling Yang? He followed Ling Yang's Weibo, and yesterday, he saw that Ling Yang reposted a message from Song Yuan. Weibo, my brother took a look, it was a group photo, and there was Leilei in it, he knew that Leilei and I were classmates, so he showed it to me." Both Yan Lei and Li Che are models of Mu Chunliang's new book. Yan Lei is definitely recognized, "In the photo... Leilei looks in a good mood, with a smile on his face, so don't worry too much."

Li Che just found it incredible.

Yan Lei...taking a photo with Song Yuan?

What are you kidding? !

Could it be that...Song Zhicheng planned to...

"Ache?" Tang Jia called out.

"Yes, I am here, I just feel a little shocked..."

"how?"

"It's okay...thank you, Tang Jia, I really want...to ask if you know about Yan Lei's recent situation, before you asked, you guessed it...it's nothing else."

"Apart from Leilei, what else can you ask? Oh, and, Cheng Xiao is also a local, not far from Leilei's house. The two of them often go out for a walk, and there is someone to accompany him. He won't have any problems. But you, stay alone, does it matter?"

"What alone? The family is full of people during the Chinese New Year." Li Che turned his chair, looked around the empty room and the dimly lit living room, and said with a smile, "I'm busy with the Chinese New Year, so I won't spend too much time with you." Say it, thank you again, and then hang up, I, Tang Yingjun!"

Before Tang Jia could speak, Li Che hung up the phone.

He got up and walked to the balcony, wanting to smoke a cigarette, but the wind was too strong, and the fire was blown out as soon as he opened it. He was too lazy to go into the house again, so he simply stopped smoking.

The sound of the wind and the waves could be heard clearly in his ears. Li Che closed his eyes and let the cold wind pierce his bones.

It was late at night when Li Jing and Li Che's mother came back. Both of them looked very unhappy, and Li Che didn't ask. Yesterday I heard Li Jing said that they were going to see Li Shi today, so he didn't want to say a word. Jing persuaded him for a long time, but he only refused with a word of no.

Li Shi, what is there to see about Li Shi?

Li Che's family doesn't have many relatives, and they don't see each other often, and there is no custom of visiting New Year everywhere.He still sits at home every day, closes the door of the room, only comes out when eating, and spends the rest of the time wearing headphones to listen to songs and draw pictures. The songs are sung by Yan Lei, and the pictures are all familiar but far away. s face.
