Let go of the past

In the deep part of the campus near the cafeteria, there is a back door made of welded iron fences, hidden behind a few lush locust trees, which is specially used for the cafeteria to purchase goods.Later, it was discovered by a few good students, word of mouth, and gradually became a secret channel on campus.Those who are late for fear of being demerited, those who skip class to go to an Internet cafe to pay a night out, and those who are bound to have accidents if they go through the main door, will become frequent visitors of this secret door.

Li Ziqing leaned vaguely against one of the locust tree trunks, stood there with his head bowed and arms folded, and a letter was clutched in his right hand. It was not so much a letter as it was a piece of waste paper that had been crumpled into a ball. A glimpse of a line of cursive script on it.

——Evening self-study is over, wait for me at the back door of the cafeteria.

A gust of night wind blew by, the leaves rustled, there was a creak not far away, and the iron door's hinges rubbed against each other. He looked up and saw that Ji Bing had just stepped over the threshold and walked slowly towards him.

Li Ziqing straightened his body slowly, lowered his arms and looked at the other party silently.

Ji Bing stopped in front of him, and the street lamp cast mottled shadows on his face from the swaying branches and leaves above his head, his expression was covered, but his eyes were extremely deep, with a soul-stirring power.

"Ziqing..." Ji Bing's voice was a little soft, and he felt relieved, "Thank you for coming."

Li Ziqing held back for a whole day, full of grievances and confusions repeatedly entangled, repeatedly tormenting his nerves, he was looking forward to what Ji Bing would say, even if he told him that all of this was a prank, it was better than such an attitude of evasiveness, It makes people feel better.

Li Ziqing grabbed the letter paper into a ball and held it in the palm of his hand. A ball of fire pressed into his throat, making his voice dry and hoarse: "Ji Bing, are you kidding me?"

Ji Bing sighed, and put his hand on his shoulder, "I'm sorry, I was kept in the dark about this incident, but in the final analysis, the responsibility lies with me. I'm too weak and stupid to be blamed. So easily manipulated."

"Then I deserve to be fooled by you like a fucking idiot?" What responded to him was Li Ziqing's excited and raised voice, and he stretched out his hand to push him away, his eyes were filled with anger and anger for a moment. The fierce emotion is like a wounded little hedgehog, curled up in the cave, vigilantly guarding against all possible injuries.

Ji Bing was pushed back half a step by him. After stabilizing his body, he didn't flinch or hesitate at all. Instead, he approached him again, and directly stretched out his arms to hug him into his arms.The other person's body was slightly trembling and hot, but he didn't struggle, his chin was obediently on his shoulder, the ends of his hair brushed against his ears, his breathing was weak and rapid, which made him miss the other person that day The appearance of panting and begging for mercy under him, crying secretly, is like a swallowtail butterfly struggling from the ground after a heavy rain, fragile and beautiful.

"I admit my mistake. You can vent it however you want, but after venting, can you listen carefully to what I have to say to you?"

Li Ziqing pushed him away, but his strength eased a lot, but his eyes were still fierce, and he said in a stiff tone: "Parting words?"

"That's it."

Li Ziqing turned his face away, covered his mouth and coughed twice, "Then tell me."

Suddenly a plastic bag was stuffed into his hand, and there was a rustling sound of the paper box. Li Ziqing looked down and heard Ji Bing say: "There are both internal and external compresses. You should remember to put it on time these two days. Medicine, I should have hurt you that day, don’t bear it when you feel uncomfortable."

Li Ziqing's cheeks were hot, and he quickly retorted subconsciously: "No."

"Not yet, how hoarse is your voice? If you still have a fever tomorrow, please ask for leave and go to the hospital. Don't go alone, let Xiaobai or Li Ru accompany you."

Li Ziqing was angry and uncomfortable for no reason, and choked: "What does it have to do with others?"

Ji Bing closed his mouth, stared at his red eyes for a while, and then said again: "Yes, it really only has something to do with me. I made you feel so uncomfortable, but I couldn't take care of you. It looks like I really A jerk."

He kept apologizing and blaming himself, with a sincere and affectionate attitude, which made Li Ziqing at a loss.

"Don't talk about it." Li Ziqing stopped him, "Check the dormitory at eleven o'clock, there is not much time, let's explain the business first."

Ji Bing nodded, and began to state in detail: "This dropout was handled by my father alone, and I didn't discuss it with me at all beforehand. I can't explain the relationship between his father and son clearly. All in all, I I am trying to escape from his control, but the premise is that I still need to use his power. Even if I sever ties with him now, he can make me completely cornered with a single word. I disobey him, but only in moderation, Don't touch his bottom line. When I was a child, I was locked in my room for two whole months and couldn't take half a step. Three meals a day were delivered by servants at regular intervals, but no one spoke to me, and I couldn't even make eye contact. No. He completely cut me off from the world because I changed the piano score he had prepared during an impromptu performance at a dinner party."

"He is a person with a strong desire to control. Although he has changed as I grow older, the essence is still there. I dare not try it easily. I am afraid that it will get out of hand, especially now that I have you by my side. .”

Li Ziqing was dumbfounded. Even though he had no father or mother since he was a child, the relationship between Ji Bing and his father was not like a father and son at all, but more like an orderer and an executor. One side can only be taught. He and Zhuozhuo couldn't see any family affection in it.

So his first reaction was to ask Ji Bing in a hurry: "Then how did you get out this time? What if your dad finds out? You won't be locked up again, right?"

Ji Bing was amused by his anxious expression, and couldn't help laughing and said: "It's okay, he can't lock me up a long time ago, and he is in the United States now, so he won't be able to reach here for a while."

Li Ziqing looked suspicious: "Don't lie to me again."

"I didn't lie to you." Ji Bing smiled gently: "Time is running out, I will continue. I will leave tomorrow afternoon, and the travel and accommodation after I get there are arranged by my father, so I am not sure if it is safe." , may disconnect with you for a period of time. But I promise, it will never be more than a month, and you don’t have to worry about me, so do whatever you want. My aunt will teach the key class of science in the second semester of high school. If there is no accident, you It should be in her class, I greeted her in advance and said that you are my good friend, you can ask her any questions about the competition, don't be shy."

Li Ziqing's hand holding the plastic bag was hanging by his side, slowly clenched into a fist, several times he wanted to open his mouth to interject, but finally swallowed it back.Ji Bing finished speaking in an orderly manner, observed his expression, and said proactively, "Say what you want, don't hold back."

Li Ziqing looked at his face intently, and asked slowly: "Then when will you return to China?"

Ji Bing's expression froze, and then he looked away casually and looked at the brightly lit teaching building in the distance. After taking a long breath, he turned back to look at Li Ziqing again, with the smile on his mouth, and said seriously: "I'm still I can't tell you the exact answer."

Li Ziqing's nose fluttered, and a layer of fog suddenly appeared in his eyes, all his emotions were contained inside, and he couldn't tell the truth.

"But I will definitely come back." Ji Bing hugged him with one hand, kissed his ear tip, and expressed comfort insincerely: "When my place is completely settled down, I will contact you as soon as possible."

Li Ziqing lowered his eyes and said nothing, Ji Bing pressed his forehead against his neck, looked deeply into his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Baby, we must be patient enough and work hard together After a few years, okay?"

Li Ziqing sniffed, and after a while, stretched out his arms and hugged Ji Bing's neck tightly, buried his head deeply on his shoulder, and said with a choked voice, "...OK."

Ji Bing left completely.

The whole person just disappeared from Li Ziqing's life.

In the third math class the next afternoon, Li Ziqing stood up from his chair and looked at the blackboard to answer the teacher's questions. The Boeing 787 speeded up and taxied into the sky, and then crossed the mountains and greenery, passed through ravines and hills, and flew over rivers, lakes and seas, quickly lengthening the distance of missing.

"Li Ziqing."

After the evening self-study get out of class, Li Ziqing, who was tortured by cold medicine and drowsy, raised his head from the desk, looked at Wang Dawei in front of him suspiciously, and asked him, "What's the matter?"

Wang Dawei's gaze drifted a little, he paused, and smiled at him, "Going to the bathroom?"

Li Ziqing noticed his strange expression, but didn't want to ask, just shook his head: "No."

"Don't keep rejecting me." Wang Dawei persevered: "I have something I want to ask you for advice. There are too many people in the class, so why don't you go with me? It just so happens that we can go back to the dormitory together."

"What do you say first."

Wang Dawei faltered: "This is my privacy, please be considerate."

Li Ziqing couldn't resist, stood up and said to him: "Then let's go."

Wang Dawei was overjoyed and hurried out of the classroom door. Li Ziqing followed him and walked towards the bathroom at the end of the corridor.

At this point, most of the students either went back to the dormitory or went outside the school gate. The bathroom was empty, and it was indeed a good place to whisper. Li Ziqing stopped at the door and asked Wang Dawei, "What's the matter?"

A cold and strange smile suddenly sounded behind him, "What's the matter? It's a matter of settling accounts."

Just as Li Ziqing was about to turn his head, someone pushed his back violently, and he fell into the bathroom, almost falling on the smooth tiled floor.

After Kankan stood still, he turned around and looked at the group of people who suddenly appeared in front of him, they were the gangsters from the second class, all of them had arrogant and domineering expressions, their chins were raised slightly, their eyes were fierce, and there was still a smirk at the corner of their mouths. It seems that I fantasized myself as the young and Dangerous boy in the movie.

The male student in the lead, the one who molested Su Mei last time, put his hands into the pockets of his wide jeans, shaking his legs like a goat. He first raised his eyebrows at Li Ziqing, and then turned his head to Wang Dawei who was in the corner. Said: "Your task is completed, remember to take the door when you go out."

Wang Dawei never dared to look in Li Ziqing's direction again, he curled up his shoulders submissively, bowed his head and walked out quickly, and after going out, he obediently closed the door outside the bathroom.

The leading male student winked at the person behind him again, and that person turned around, and with a click, he locked the door from the inside.

"Li Ziqing," the bastard approached, admiring Li Ziqing's expression at the moment, grinned badly and said, "Are you afraid? Do you want me to call your Ji Bing father? Let him know, His good son is going to be in bad luck soon."

"Zhang Zhe," Li Ziqing took a step back and asked him expressionlessly, "Do you want to be demerited?"

The gangster Zhang Zhe shrugged his shoulders, and said indifferently, "What are you afraid of? At worst, I'll stay in school for probation." He paused, and suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "But in exchange for giving you a good lesson, don't mention how happy I am."

"Brother Zhe, why are you talking nonsense with him? The villain died because of talking too much." Someone beside him interrupted.

Zhang Zhe's face darkened, he turned his head and cursed: "Fuck you, who the hell is the villain?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, brother Zhe, I have a bad brain, you don't remember villains."

Zhang Zhe withdrew his gaze, landed on the mop placed in the corner of the wall halfway, sneered, walked over to pick up the mop, then turned his head to look back at Li Ziqing, his eyes were instantly ruthless.

Li Ziqing's heart sank. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the compartment door facing him was wide open, and slowly moved half a step to the right.

Zhang Zhe had a panoramic view of his subtle movements, smiled mockingly, and walked towards Li Ziqing at a fast pace the next moment. When the other half of his body had already slipped into the compartment, he suddenly pressed forward and stretched out his hand. The person was pulled out, and then he flew up and kicked the opponent's leg fiercely. Li Ziqing was in pain, and his center of gravity was unstable, so he fell down abruptly on the hard tile floor.

He fell on his side, his right elbow hit the ground unpreparedly, making a clear crisp sound, and the piercing pain instantly went from the nerve endings to the brain. He clenched his teeth and covered the injured part, raised his head Glaring at Zhang Zhe, "There must be an explanation for beating someone. Do I have any problems with you?"

"Hehe..." Zhang Zhe looked down at Li Ziqing condescendingly: "I hit you as soon as I hit you, and I still have to explain? Okay, explain," Zhang Zhe touched his chin, clicked his tongue, and said, "Is it enough to see if you don't like it? Li Ziqing, aren't you fucking awesome? Are you comfortable being Ji Bing's dog? But your father has dropped out of school, you good son, why don't you go with him?"

Li Ziqing frowned slightly as he listened to his gibberish spouting, but did not answer.

Zhang Zhe only thought that he was frightened, turned his head and said to the people behind him, "You two, go over there and put that kid up for me."
