Stop loss

After the hearty and hearty battle, Qin Ge fell into a deep sleep, and when he woke up, he looked radiant and energetic.

Qin Ge opened his eyes, and the light in the whole environment was fresh and soft.He was sitting in the familiar Wenzhong classroom wearing a shirt and school uniform, and he really returned to that summer.

Qin Ge looked up, and the invigilator who knocked the back of his head to wake him up looked shocked, as if wondering how a student like him who would sleep in the college entrance examination room got into Wenlin No. [-] Middle School, and where he would go in the future.He responded with an embarrassed but polite smile, and he couldn't tell the truth that he "failed the exam and went to Zhejiang".

But the other students who mocked themselves as "failing to come to Zhejiang" did not dare to frown in front of him, because Qin Ge was really biased, and he didn't even get half of the score in Chinese, and if his composition didn't digress, that day This year's champion may have to be replaced.

Qin Ge lowered his head, and the composition page of the college entrance examination Chinese answer sheet on the table was facing up. Looking around, the other candidates were still scribbling, but he racked his brains to fill in less than [-] words, so he fell asleep straight away.

Qin Ge rubbed his eyes before opening them. The light in the classroom was still unbelievably soft.He was embarrassed to go back to sleep, so he supported his head and looked out the window in boredom.Outside the window, apart from the familiar Tongtianmen and rolling mountains, there is also the endless sea that cannot appear nearby, making Wenlin Yizhong an isolated island surrounded by mountains and seas.

Qin Ge opened his eyes wide, paused for breath, and quickly pulled out the test paper from behind the answer sheet.

The scenery outside the classroom is as illusory as a mirage, and the paper in Qin Ge's hand is written in black and white with the composition topic of that year's college entrance examination: When the "virtual" in the virtual world becomes more and more "reality" in the real world, choose to embrace This new world, or stay away deliberately, or keep an appropriate distance from it?

Qin Ge's eyes were darkened, and his head hurt after a long absence.

Looking carefully at his answer sheet, he only grasped the "vr technology" in the question stem, and praised the great changes brought about by scientific and technological progress to human society. .

He was too young then to know how to write the correct answer.Of course, his thinking is different now, but it is a pity that time cannot be turned back, and the answer sheet in his hand cannot be rewritten even in a dream.

Then he heard an ethereal call.

Looking up suddenly, he was the only one left in the huge classroom.

It was only a blink of an eye, and the waves surrounded the city like a gable wall. Qin Ge opened his eyes in alarm before everything was submerged——

Qin Ge lay on his side on the bed, and took a short breath. It was too short, and Chen Qiye, who had already woken up, didn't see anything strange in his eyes.

Chen Qiye was also lying on his side, still watching Qin Ge's posture with his head propped on one hand, and he didn't say when he woke up, nor how long he watched like this.

Qin Ge blinked slowly.After taking a deep breath, he brushed Chen Xiye's slightly long bangs away with his fingers, and stared at the real pillow person for a long time.Chen Qiye's other hand also stroked his face, touching his clear facial features, and finally landed on the end of his eyebrows.

Chen Qiye murmured: "I always feel a little unreal."

Qin Ge's eyes were very serious, which meant that Chen Qiye should continue talking.

"It's too fast, it's like a blitzkrieg..." Those who left must express their sincerity if they want to come back, and even make up for the eight years of absence. Just at this time yesterday, Chen Qiye thought he would face countless problems. test.

But Qin Ge was exceptionally tolerant and incredibly calm, as if this scene was completely in his expectation, and the only thing he couldn't control was the timing of Chen Qiye's arrival.

Chen Qiye looked surprised.Qin Ge observed Chen Xiye, and could find a bit of himself in him.I used to be so lively, willing to express myself, and so responsive that the speed of my speech could not keep up with the speed of my brain. The first sentence was analyzing the current relationship between the two, and the latter sentence was inexplicably related to Qin Ge not snoring all night, and then fell into a Thinking, frowning slightly, eyes unconsciously lowered to avoid all gazes and immersed in his own world, until something suddenly broke into——

Qin Ge's lower body was tightly pressed against Chen Qiye's lower abdomen, and he asked Chen Qiye, "Is this real enough?"

Qin Ge's place was hard and hot, but his voice was still cold and without warmth. Hearing it, Chen Qiye's ears felt hot, and he was passively involved in a protracted battle under the blue sky and white sun.After the end, Chen Qiye's legs were so soft that he didn't even have the strength to get out of bed. He was still dizzy and hungry, and if the delivery man hadn't knocked on the door halfway, Qin Ge didn't know how long he would have to do it.

Qin Ge was still very sympathetic to Chen Xiye, so he took the takeaway to the bedroom and put it on the bedside table to eat.He put on his trousers, and sat on the edge of the bed to give Chen Xiye their favorite raw fried snacks in high school. Chen Xiye, who was pillowed on the head of the bed, didn't even have to raise his hand, like a ignorant young woman who was doted on by her husband and was in confinement. What? You don't need to do anything, just open your mouth and wait for Qin Ge to feed you.

Chen Xiye was already hungry, and the original accumulation of traffic on the road to entrepreneurship was completed by making food and broadcasting, so as long as Qin Ge kept feeding, it would not be a problem for him to keep eating and eating up the takeaway for the two.But Qin Ge stopped when there was only a little half left. Seeing that he didn't move his chopsticks, Chen Qiye thought that Qin Ge would eat the rest, but Qin Ge didn't.

"Do you have a bad appetite?" Chen Qiye got a negative answer from Qin Ge who was packing up the takeaway boxes.Maybe it's because he ate too much delicacies from mountains and seas. Qin Ge's desire for food has become less and less in recent years. Not hungry is enough.

"Then how can I do it?" Chen Qiye was worried, he got out of the bed and snatched the disposable chopsticks from Qin Ge's hand, reopened the takeaway box, stuffed a piece of raw fried food into his mouth, and put another in it. Qin Ge's mouth.

"I'll accompany you to eat some more. You used to like watching me eat the most, and you said that I look very appetizing when I eat, and you will be greedy." Chen Xiye had food in his mouth, and his voice was a little vague, but Qin Ge Hearing it clearly, he hesitated for a moment and then ate what was brought to his mouth, but before Chen Xiye was happy, he took his chopsticks away, and he didn't eat it himself, and he didn't let Chen Xiye continue to eat.

"Don't hold back when you're full." Qin Ge seemed to have a precise scale in his heart, and only fed Chen Xiye the amount of food for one person.Of course, Chen Qiye was not convinced. His early identity was a food blogger, but he was actually a big eater. In his heyday, he could eat [-] servings of fried rice in one night. He was not given the chance to finish the disc.

Chen Qiye wanted to argue with Qin Ge, but Qin Ge gave him a look. Chen Qiye immediately faltered, and obediently retreated into the bed, fearing that Qin Ge would eat him.

That fleeting look also reassured Chen Qiye for a while, it turned out that Qin Ge didn't have no desire to control himself at all.Qin Ge really cared about himself, and acquiesced that he wanted to go back to Hangzhou with him, but they bought the tickets too late, and the earliest trains they could buy were in the evening, so they still had neither too much nor too little afternoon time .

Chen Qiye suggested going out for a walk, saying that he wanted to see the changes in Tanzhou over the years, but he was actually afraid that Qin Ge would be too focused on himself and his body would not be able to bear it.Unlike Qin Ge, Chen Qiye has never been to Jiangsu and Zhejiang in the past eight years even if he returned to China, but Tanzhou has not changed much for him. The campus and bus station under Tongtianmen are still the same as before. He brought Qin Ge Take the No. 7 bus, prepare to transfer to the No. 12 bus at the ninth stop, and the terminal station is Nanyang Street in the old city.

This was the fixed route of Chen Qiye's student days. He browsed the scenery outside the window with great interest, but the streets along the way were very different from the ones in his memory, and the place was turned upside down in just eight years.

He couldn't help but sigh with Qin Ge, but Qin Ge told him that it was not the streets and buildings on both sides of the No. 7 bus, but the route of the No. 7 bus.

Chen Qiye was taken aback.

Then I checked the map with my mobile phone, and found that the bus they took had indeed deviated from the route to the destination.

Chen Qiye didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and asked Qin Ge, since he knew the route had changed, why he didn't remind himself, and followed him into the car without saying a word.Qin Ge didn't complain back, he was still so flat: "I see that you are leading the way so confidently, and I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm."

"I—" Chen Qiye was at a loss for words, and he didn't know how to communicate for a while.After getting off at the next stop, the two chose a taxi. They were all sitting in the back seat. It stands to reason that they could have some more intimate behaviors, but Qin Ge's eyes kept falling out of the window. Like Chen Qiye, his fingers were moving around on the chair cushion, and he wanted to hold Qin Ge, but he didn't dare to be too proactive because the other party ignored his attitude.

Chen Qiye couldn't help but miss Qin Ge from before.How could it be possible for Qin Ge to be so dignified and polite when he was eighteen or nineteen years old, let alone holding hands, after making sure that the driver couldn't see them from the rearview mirror, Qin Ge would even reach into Chen Xiye's clothes and fumble around, tossing Chen Xiye to the core. Xi Ye was ashamed and ashamed.Chen Qiye didn't want Qin Ge to play tricks on him. He felt that it hurt his self-esteem. Now that he is walking with Qin Ge in the reconstructed Nanyang Street, he hopes that Qin Ge will be a hooligan. That kind of Qin Ge... that kind of Qin Ge Ge Cai is vivid and lively. Despite his personality flaws, the emotions of the young man are as real as a flame, so hot that people in it can't doubt and extricate themselves.

"How is it?" Qin Ge asked Chen Qiye what he thought of Xin Nanyang Street.He just throws out a question, he will not ignore the eyes of passers-by and take Chen Xiye's hand, and he will not take the opportunity to touch Chen Xiye's shoulders and hips. He is a mature adult, and how many people resist growing up just for the sake of Don't become such a boring look.

"...The change is so great that I can hardly recognize it." Chen Qiye looked at Qin Ge and gave such an evaluation.The ancient street they are in has been completely renewed after reconstruction. The old bricks under their feet are uneven, and the white walls and black tiles on both sides are patchwork. The trendy cultural and creative products sold in the facades along the street complement each other.

This place is now called Nanyang New Street.Chen Qiye walked, walked, and walked to the only building in this area that had not been demolished, and finally lost the courage to move forward.

"What's wrong?" Qin Ge noticed his strangeness.They are standing in front of the Confucian Temple in Tanzhou Prefecture. When they were teenagers, this Confucian Temple was rarely visited by people, and the walls were mottled and in disrepair. All have been retouched.

Standing in front of the open gate of the Confucius Temple, Chen Qiye saw a few tall trees in the open space of the temple from a distance. They were covered with red ropes for blessing, fluttering with the gentle breeze, quiet and peaceful.

Chen Qiye was timid.He didn't need to go in to imagine that this place was full of pilgrims over the years, but it was no longer what he remembered, but he didn't even have the qualifications to say "things are different".

Under the washing of time, not only a street and a temple have been reborn.

Chen Qiye found a random reason to prevaricate Qin Ge. Qin Ge respected his wishes and did not enter the temple, instead of persuading him. If the persuasion failed, he forcibly pulled him in.The two of them are really starting from the beginning again, the youthful years of the stinky young master and the bad-tempered little follower can never go back.

Chen Qiye felt lost.On the return train, he got his wish and held Qin Ge's hand, but because they were located at the front of the carriage, whenever someone passed by, Qin Ge would let go of his hands, and he didn't want strangers to notice their small gestures and send more updates. many gazes.From a secular point of view, what Qin Ge did was undoubtedly correct, but Chen Qiye lost his sense of security, and the sense of unreality swept over him again after waking up this morning.

This worry about gains and losses intensified on the way back to the residence at the train station.Chen Qiye had no anxiety on his face, all he thought about was the relationship between Qin Ge and Du Xinyi.Lin Ji repeatedly emphasized to him that the relationship between the two of them was a fake and life forced them to do so, so Chen Qiye was quite sure and confident. Apart from gender, he didn't feel that he was losing to Du Xinyi.

But what flashed back to his mind was the evening after the transfer, when Du Xinyi and Qin Ge came to his dormitory to make rounds and take pictures.He clearly recognized Qin Ge as the domineering young master who fed him in the attic when he was a child. He was reserved and embarrassed to recognize each other first. On the way back to the classroom, he saw the beautiful Du Xinyi and Qin Ge chatting and feeding the fish by the pond. Seeing that the two were so well matched, he didn't dare to disturb them.

His sensitive and twisted pride was back, too fragile to shatter the moment the door was opened.Fortunately, what he saw was not Du Xinyi, but a large dog.It's only been two days since we were separated from the owner, and the golden retriever couldn't wait to pounce on the door after the door opened without distinguishing where the two were standing. It was so eager to pounce on the wrong target, and its two front paws rested on Chen Qiye's arm. , so enthusiastic that the unsuspecting guest took several steps back and almost staggered.

Chen Qiye was caught off guard and was frightened.After calming down, he wanted to grab the golden fur's paw to show his friendship, but the golden fur gave him a push and jumped back to Qin Ge's side with its tail waving happily around its owner.

But its owner didn't touch its head.Both the two of them and the dog entered the house and stood at the entrance to change their shoes. Qin Ge bent down and put his fingertips on the golden retriever's nose as a punishment, asking it to apologize to Chen Qiye for its disrespect just now.

A sob came from the golden retriever's throat.It folded its tail, its limbs pressed against the marble surface and lay in front of Chen Qiye, its chin was also lowered to the floor, and it looked up at Chen Qiye with pitiful eyes.Chen Xiye was not angry at all, and this golden retriever is so cute and psychic, of course he said "it's okay", then squatted down and rubbed the golden retriever's head and ears, and after rubbing it into his arms, he asked Qin Ge: "This dog What is your name?"

"Chen Qiye."

Chen Xiye shuddered when his name was called, and he raised his head. The dog's owner was tall, and the shadow cast from behind the chandelier could cover himself and the dog in his arms.

And in order to get close to the dog, Chen Qiye unknowingly fell on his knees and changed from squatting to kneeling.When Qin Ge called his name, the dislocation caused by his posture made him so dazed that he thought that Brother Qin had given his own name to the dog he had trained and brought up.

Chen Qiye's eyes flickered.Qin Ge couldn't help him to escape, squatted down, and called again: "Chen Qiye."

Chen Qiye had to raise his eyes, his throat tightened unbearably, trying to see whether Qin Ge was looking directly at himself or the dog in his arms.
