Stop loss

Qin Ge knew that there was a gift for himself in the paper box without guessing, but he couldn't guess what it was.When Chen Qiye took out the music box and showed it to him, he felt that it was unexpected and reasonable.

Chen Qiye was sitting at the desk in the bedroom.His mobile phone stand at a slightly higher place creates a visual difference, making the cake look huge, while his face and body are slightly smaller.After the show, he put the music box in front of the cake without affecting the overall visual composition, and then told Qin Ge mysteriously that this was actually Du Xinyi's intention.

Only then did Qin Ge know that Du Xinyi made a special trip to Hangzhou a few days ago to return the repaired music box to its original owner.Chen Qiye now holds the music box shell with one hand, and winds up the clockwork with the other hand, and this ancient box plays a crisp and simple melody.Young people in the new era will only think it sounds good, only they know that it is actually a song.

A ballad that is also aging.

Qin Ge listened quietly, while Chen Qiye played quietly.A simple song "Miss Dong" breaks time and space, and the morning of Hangzhou and the night of Europe merge in the time of this song.

"Du Xinyi also told me that day, when you were in high school, your heart was higher than the sky. After the folk song became popular in the talent show, many people released a cover of "Miss Dong". What, when I sang "Miss Dong" to people, they didn't even know what a folk song is.'"

Chen Qiye learned Qin Ge's youthful and vigorous appearance vividly. Of course, Qin Ge would not complain so shallowly now. Folk songs are not popular in this era, and have declined.

"So... when I found this in the side sleeper, I thought it was necessary to prepare a retro show for you." Chen Qiye came prepared.He stretched his hand out of the camera, and then pulled it back. There was an extra guitar in his hand, which was the one that Qin Ge hadn't played for many years and had fallen to dust.

Qin Ge was completely sleepless.There is no need to play, Chen Qiye's little tricks are enough for him to surprise, Chen Qiye strummed the strings pretending to be familiar, and said solemnly: "Let's talk about it first, I just practiced a song bravely, and I don't provide song order services. Don’t take criticism if you don’t do well.”

How could Qin Ge be willing to be picky? He applauded Chen Qiye in advance.Chen Qiye lit the candles on the cake and turned off the lights. The light from the candles could not illuminate the whole room and made the background dark, but it was like a spotlight at a concert, attracting all the audience's attention to the players and singers.

Chen Qiye said, "Remember to make a wish."

"This is "It's a Love Song." Chen Qiye was a little playful and a little nervous, but more eager to try, went around and around, and finally it was his turn to sing a love song to Qin Ge.

Chen Qiye lowered his eyes, moved his gaze from Qin Ge on the phone screen to the guitar, played the chords and at the same time sent the first sentence, which is also the most repeated sentence in this song: "I still like you very much."

Qin Ge's heart was really moved the moment he heard it.

The corners of his lips couldn't come down at all, he rested his head on one hand, his posture of listening to the song was as lazy and casual as Chen Qiye's singing, but the sound of his heartbeat had never been more real.

"I still like you very much." This is the lyrics, and it is also Chen Qiye's heartfelt words.This song is similar to Pushkin's "I Loved You", fanatical yet restrained, swift and restrained, "Like the heavy rain falling into the forest last night, cautious and complacent, like the last secret hidden in a poem, from now on you don't look like Me, I'm not like you."

These are Chen Qiye's favorite four lines, and they are also the ones that impressed Qin Ge the most after listening to them.Chen Qiye's guitar playing skills are completely incomparable to Qin Ge's. Even though he practiced secretly for several days, the melody is still intermittent, just like his slow singing voice which is not in tune, clumsy, shy, but incomparable sincerity.

Qin Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying this love song in the impermanent cycle of time.

Qin Ge changed his posture.He put his phone on the bed, slid down the bed and sat on the floor, hugging his knees with his hands as if hugging Chen Qiye.He didn't stop, Chen Xiye kept singing, repeating the line "I still like you very much", until the candles on the cake were extinguished.Chen Qiye's guitar sound finally stopped, Qin Ge spoke softly, moving his lips without vibrating and said: [I like you too].

Chen Qiye could understand, smiled, but tears overflowed uncontrollably, a little weird in the warm atmosphere.He didn't want Qin Ge to disappoint, so he didn't rush to turn on the light, but asked in the dark, "What wish did you make?"

Qin Ge raised his head and remained silent for a while, then looked at the pitch-black phone screen, and said, "I don't have any wishes."

Qin Ge was serious.He is no longer the boy who cried and said he had no love eight years ago. He has grown up, has no barriers with his family, has a real career, and his love has returned. He is now so happy that he can no longer Happiness, what is complete cannot be more perfect.

It's definitely a happy ending.However, Chen Qiye felt distressed. He stroked Qin Ge's face with his fingers, but all he could touch was the cold screen.

"No, you have to make a wish." Chen Qiye was tough, but also had a strong confidence, "Don't look down on me, you just want a star now, I can buy the naming rights and give it to you."

Qin Ge was amused by Chen Xiye's wealth, and repeatedly waved his hands and said that he didn't need him to pick the stars and the moon.Chen Qiye was persistent and urged him to finish the birthday ceremony quickly. Qin Ge was forced to have no choice but to tell the truth: "My wish can't be fulfilled."

Chen Qiye didn't believe it, so he had to tell Qin Ge.

As if he had a telepathy with Qin Ge, Chen Qiye knew that he was getting closer, closer than ever before, so close that he could touch the softest part of Qin Ge's heart, the most unspeakable regret.

"Occasionally, I hope...all of this is a story." Qin Ge turned his face sideways, and after a pause, he looked at the camera.

He quickly explained, saying that of course he can distinguish the virtual from the real, so it’s just sometimes, sometimes, not often occasionally, in the middle of the night without company, in the early morning of sleepless nights, and woke up from a strange dream Later, when he faced this real world made up of matter alone, he would have a little doubt, or hope——hope that all this is just a story.

And if all this is really just a story, then they...

"...then the eight years we have been separated are just a few pages, not every day without each other."

Qin Ge turned his face away again.

When he recovered, Chen Qiye still didn't turn on the light, nor said anything.

Qin Ge was a little panicked, and he held his forehead, speechless and funny.He has never been a sentimental person. When he was eighteen or nineteen years old, he said "my heart is empty" every day, not because he lacked a sense of security, but because he wanted to coax Chen Xiye to touch him. Come animal instinct.He didn't expect to have such thoughts deep in his heart. He had to re-recognize himself, and when these thoughts were excavated and shown to another person, he was relieved, and even the child's xinxing that he had when he was young was lost. .

"Hey, Chen Qiye, turn on the light." Qin Ge patted the phone's camera, and taught seriously, "Let's stop being a literary youth, we are all science students, you have to believe in science, you know? Hey yo , When I mentioned this, I thought of the composition of the college entrance examination back then, what was real and virtual, and I was sentenced to digress after finally making up enough words. "

Qin Ge made a "hiss—" sound, and rubbed his temples with his fingertips, pretending to be like that.Chen Xiye, who had been silent for a long time, finally turned on the light. The cake was still the same cake, but Chen Xiye's face was covered with unwiped tears, and he held his breath slightly to prevent sobbing. Qin Ge felt really distressed seeing it.

Chen Qiye smiled forcedly: "Did I screw up your birthday again?"

"No, I'm very happy." Qin Ge shook his head, watching Chen Qiye's reddened eyes.

"There is really no way for you to realize this wish." Chen Qiye exhaled apologetically, feeling even more guilty, but he didn't know that his current appearance could best arouse Qin Ge's desire. The more pitiful he was, the more Qin Ge wanted to bully him.

Qin Ge lay back on the bed: "Then let's change to a simple one."

Chen Qiye wiped his face, there were still tears in his eyes.But he looked at Qin Ge firmly, and he believed that no matter what request Qin Ge made, he would not refuse and hesitate.

Qin Ge said, "Take off your clothes."

Chen Qiye immediately stopped the tears that still wanted to well up: "???"

Qin Ge wasn't joking.Seeing him motionless, he repeated: "Take off."

Chen Xiye looked around in a daze.The person who doubted the reality changed from Qin Ge to him. He couldn't figure out how the original sad atmosphere could change without even a transition, and he entered the adult time.

"Quick." Qin Ge didn't intend to let him go, and deliberately lowered his voice and said indifferently, "Don't make me say it a third time."

Chen Qiye was really taken aback. He stood up, took two steps back so that the camera could fully capture himself, and followed Qin Ge's instructions to take off his clothes one by one. The little cake just blocked his most secret The place.
