Chi Fan was quite angry at first, but when he saw the word "um", for some reason, he couldn't get angry at all.

Even wanted to laugh.

After holding it in for a long time, I choked out the word "um", what kind of entanglement has it become?But obviously the other party has not calmed down, so after struggling for a long time, he just said a word "um" awkwardly, and refused to say any more words.

Although most of the anger in his heart has dissipated, Chi Fan didn't intend to soften his words immediately. After all, this is a matter of principle. If he just backed down like this, wouldn't he be tacitly acquiescing that the other party can interfere in his private social interaction at will? ?This time he didn't like Fu Siyan, what if he didn't like Fu Siyan in the future?Is it possible that I will be with you in the future? Whoever makes friends depends on Fu Nianyu's face?

How can there be such a reason.

***

Another week passed in a blink of an eye, and in the blink of an eye, it was Friday. In the evening, Chi Fan went to work part-time at "Shimu". ?Zhou Ye was at the front desk discussing the scheduling of classes.

This Saturday is the Ching Ming Festival. The little girl who was originally scheduled to take the handicraft class that afternoon had to ask for leave temporarily, but everyone else had already made holiday arrangements, and there was really no one to come to help. Shang Yang was discussing with Zhou Ye. Need to find foreign aid, or simply tell the client? Temporary cancellation.

"How about I come." Chi Fan interjected directly, "I have time."

The two people at the front desk immediately looked back at him, and Zhou Ye asked, "Aren't you going to Fu Nianyu's place every Saturday and Sunday afternoon?"

Everyone knows that Chi Fan tutors Fu Nianyu, so when arranging classes, he never arranges Saturday and Sunday afternoon classes for him.

Chi Fan got stuck for a while, probably because he hadn't contacted him for a week, and he always felt that Fu Nianyu probably didn't need make-up lessons anymore. Chi Fan really forgot that it was time for make-up lessons again this Saturday.He was silent for a while and said?.

"I won't go to his place this week, arrange classes for me."

Both Zhou Ye and Shang Yang were stunned, and even Jiang Chengze who was silently clearing the table at the side stopped and glanced this way.

"Aren't you going this week?" Shang Yang opened his mouth wide, with a complicated expression, "You two..."

Zhou Ye secretly stepped on Shang Yang's foot, and the latter fell silent immediately, but Chi Fan had already heard it.

"How do you know that I didn't go last week?" Chi Fan frowned, he was very disgusted with this kind of publicity of personal conflicts, "Did he say?"

"That's not true." Zhou Ye said calmly, "He stayed here for a day last Sunday. We thought you had something to do and he came here because he was bored. He didn't talk to you about anything at that time. "We said, don't misunderstand."

However, even though Fu Nianyu didn't say anything at the time, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that this kid must have had a conflict with Chi Fan. After all, apart from that, they really couldn't think of anything else to make him Fang showed an expression of "the sky is falling and I'm dead?"

And obviously the face is dead? Ashen, and he keeps saying that he is fine. He sits in the corner with his mobile phone and clicks the button. After a long time, Shang Yang secretly glanced at it, and he didn't even send a message. .I usually look at the sun every day, but at this time, I feel like a dog, and just like other young couples say goodbye? Twist... Isn't this just asking for guilt!

"What's the matter with you two?" Zhou Ye asked directly, "Why did this happen?"

In fact, it's normal for friends to have conflicts, so he didn't care too much about it. Unexpectedly, it's been a week, and the two seem to be in a state of cold war, which is a bit serious.

Chi Fan didn't know what to say? After clearing the ins and outs, it took a long time for him to burst out a sentence, which was highly summarized.

"The three views are inconsistent."

"Oh, is it so serious?" Zhou Ye smiled, "Maybe it's just 'concern leads to chaos'?"

Concerned about chaos?Chi Fan didn't think so.

Is it out of concern for him not to associate with Fu Siyan?Restricting personal freedom is almost the same, obviously imposing one's own preferences on others, what kind of concern is this?

"The matter between you two, we outsiders don't know the specific situation, so we won't interrupt randomly." Zhou Ye patted Chi Fan's shoulder lightly, and said earnestly, "But based on the experience of someone who has been here, I will only talk about it alone." Suggestion: don't freeze."

"It's fine to have another quarrel or fight face to face, but don't freeze, it will hurt your feelings."

Zhou Ye's words were very pertinent and down-to-earth. Chi Fan was silent for a while, then nodded.

"Yes, I know."

"That Saturday's schedule..." Shang Yang looked at Chi Fan.

"Let me go." Chi Fan sighed, "You can't find anyone either? Just line up like this."

Shang Yang glanced at Zhou Ye, and Zhou Ye nodded, so Shang Yang drew up the timetable and posted the adjusted timetable to the group—only this kind of irrigation group reminds people that it is actually a work group.

Chi Fan put on his coat, said goodbye to Zhou Ye and the others, and went out.It's a commercial area nearby. Although it's almost ten o'clock, the surrounding area is still very lively. When Chi Fan went to the station to wait for the bus, he suddenly felt a gaze staring at him, and immediately turned his head to look back.

But he found nothing except the crowds coming and going.

This is not the first time.

In the past few days, Chi Fan always felt that someone was following him, but every time he turned around vigilantly, that feeling disappeared again.Chi Fan wondered if it was Lu Fang, or someone with him. After all, he was the one who had a grudge against him in S City. Just in case, he would always carry self-defense with him when he went out. If it is really blocked again, it can only be hardened.

The bus came soon, and Chi Fan squeezed into the bus with the flow of people. The faint sight quickly disappeared into the crowd, and he probably didn't follow.

But to be on the safe side, Chi Fan didn't get off at the main entrance of S University. Instead, he took three extra stops, went around to the back of S University, and got off near a small market with denser crowds. Then he Across this crowded night market, head towards the west gate of the school.

Tomorrow is the Ching Ming Festival, and the municipal government has placed gold barrels at some intersections, and many people have come out to burn paper tonight.The night is deep, the cool wind is bleak, under the dim street lamps, there are shadows at the intersection, the fire is flickering in the wind, and occasionally some murmurs and sporadic sobbing can be heard. The dark night is haunting and desolate.

Chi Fan quickened his pace slightly. The road he was walking would pass the neighborhood where Fu Nianyu lived. When he saw the residential building in the distance, he subconsciously looked up and found that the windows of Fu Nianyu's house were not lit.

It's so late, he hasn't come home yet?

Chi Fan took out his phone reflexively, and had already clicked on the chat box, only to remember that the two are still in a cold war.The chat history from last time is still there, with a lonely word "um", lying quietly on the screen and looking at him.

Chi Fan suddenly felt special? It wasn't a taste.I can't say whether it's uncomfortable or lost, but it's probably like the feeling when I just heard that my partner might go abroad to study.

In fact, he stopped being angry a long time ago. The reason for the stalemate until now is because of a stubbornness.Although he usually looks easy to talk about, sometimes he is very stubborn and always gets into the horns, and the second sister often talks about it. He has to correct this problem, otherwise he will suffer a big loss sooner or later, but this is something engraved in his bones, how can it be so easy get rid of.Chi Fan stared at the phone for a long time, finally sighed slightly, and put the phone away again.

What Lao Zhou said is right? You can't stay so stiff all the time.he thinks.I am older than Fu Nianyu, so I should be more tolerant. I should take the initiative in this kind of thing, and then find an opportunity to have a good talk with the other party.

After thinking this way, Chi Fan felt a lot easier.His eyes stayed on the dark window for a few seconds, and finally decided to look around to the other side. If he was sure that the other party was really not at home, it would not be too late to send a message to ask.

So Chi Fan changed his route and walked along the sidewalk to the other side of the community.When he was about to cross the road, he saw someone burning paper at the intersection not far away, and the flame fluttering in the wind illuminated the side of the other person's face, and Chi Fan suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Why does he feel... that person looks like Fu Nianyu?

Involuntarily, Chi Fan took a few steps towards that side.The other party was wearing a black hoodie and a black hat. He was completely black from head to toe. If it wasn't for the flames, he would be able to melt into the deep night while standing on the side of the road.Chi Fan approached and took a closer look, and he was completely sure.

It's really him.

At the same time, Chi Fan also immediately thought of who the other party was paying homage to.

It should be his mother.

Fu Nianyu told him that his mother passed away very early. For Fu Nianyu now, she is the only family member he can mourn.

Chi Fan felt that mourning is a very personal matter, and the other party should not want to be disturbed or seen by outsiders.Fu Nianyu hadn't seen him yet, so he could leave directly, but his feet seemed to have taken root, and it was difficult to move when he stood still.

Along the way, he saw that there were at least two people who came out to burn paper to mourn, but Fu Nianyu was alone.

It can only be one person.

The yellow paper in the gold-melting bucket turned into gray paper ashes in the dancing flames. The yellow paper in his hand was burnt out. Fu Nianyu turned around to get a new one. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a person standing not far away. He turned his head, then froze.

He opened his mouth, as if to say? What, but he didn't form a clear sentence in the end.I don't know if I didn't expect to see Chi Fan here, or because I didn't know what to say because the burden of the Cold War hadn't been unloaded, so he just stood there, looking at Chi Fan motionless.

"Aren't you going to continue?" Chi Fan was the first to break the silence between the two. He subconsciously took a few steps forward and looked at the gold pot behind the other party. "The fire is about to go out."

"what."

Fu Nianyu immediately turned around, turned the sparks up with a wooden stick, waited for the flames to rise again, and then threw new yellow paper in, and the gray paper butterflies flew up with the night wind again.Chi Fan walked over, stopped beside Fu Nianyu, and glanced at him quietly.

Fu Nianyu at this time is a little different from usual. He is usually proud and ostentatious, like a soaring swallow, able to fly to the highest point of the clouds in the face of the sun; but at this time, he But he looked extraordinarily stable and extraordinarily quiet, as if the whole person had sunk down, mature and introverted, not like a boy who was only 17 years old at all.

Chi Fan looked away slightly, and saw a circle drawn with chalk on the ground next to the gold-transforming barrel, with a name written in it. It was too dark to see clearly, but it should be Fu Nianyu's mother's name.Beside the name, there is also a small white box, about the same size or size as a small jewelry box for necklaces and rings. The edges of the box are rough, and it looks like it has been around for a while.

Chi Fan stood beside Fu Nianyu for a while, and asked softly.

"Can I... be with you?"

Fu Nianyu glanced at him, seemed a little surprised, but quickly nodded, and gave half of the yellow paper in his hand to Chi Fan.Together, the two threw the yellow paper into the gold bucket, and the flames engulfed the yellow paper, and the ashes of the paper fluttered up and down like gray-white butterflies in the flames.

In fact, Chi Fan also said that he didn't know why he took the initiative to ask to join. He had never met Fu Nianyu's mother, and he didn't even know her name. All he knew existed in the few words Fu Nianyu briefly mentioned.But he also wanted to express something, to be by Fu Nianyu's side in this lonely night, and together with him, to express his condolences to a person he had never met.

The yellow paper burned out quickly, and when the last spark was extinguished, only the dim yellow streetlights remained to illuminate the intersection.Fu Nianyu was lost in thought looking at the ashes in the bucket of gold, while Chi Fan stood quietly with him without making a sound.

After a long time, as if he finally woke up from a dream, Fu Nianyu sighed and took off the hood of his hoodie.He closed the lid of the gold-melting bucket, and leaned over to pick up the small white box on the ground.Seeing Chi Fan staring at the small box, Fu Nianyu paused and asked.

"You wonder what's in there?"

"Is it your mother's relic?" Chi Fan guessed.

Fu Nianyu nodded, and he opened the lid of the box, which was covered with a layer of light golden brocade, and a string of pure white bracelets was placed in the center of the box.The texture does not look like jade, nor does it look like agate or pearl.

"You can feel it." Fu Nianyu said.

Chi Fan reached out and touched it. The white beads were smooth and cool. This feeling...

"It's a giant clam?" Although it was a questioning tone, Chi Fan was already very sure.

"Yeah." Fu Nianyu nodded.

Tridacna is the largest shellfish in the ocean. Beads made from its shells are delicate, smooth, and flawless.Tridacna bracelets were very rare ten or so years ago, and the price was very high. But after mass production, unless the jade is very high-quality and high-quality clams, other textures are average, and the price is one hundred and ten yuan. You can buy several strings.

"The quality is average, but she likes it very much and has worn it for a long time."

Fu Nianyu closed the lid, put it carefully into his clothes, then leaned over and picked up the small broom next to the bucket of gold, and swept away the circles drawn with chalk and the names written on the ground. After cleaning, Put your hands back into your pockets.

"Senior, are you going back to school?" Fu Nianyu asked him.

Chi Fan originally wanted to go back, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly changed his mind.

"I...I'm going to have some supper." Chi Fan looked at Fu Nianyu, "Do you want to go together?"

"Okay." A little smile appeared on the boy's face, "Let's go."

The two walked along the road towards the night market. For a long distance, they didn't talk anymore. The brief tacit understanding just now seemed to disappear with the extinguishment of the fire. The embarrassment and suffocating silence of the cold war back again.Just when Chi Fan was struggling with how to start the topic, he suddenly heard the people around him speak, with a very low voice.

"I saw the class schedule in the group."

Chi Fan's heart tightened, and he paused for a long while before saying, "They can't make it to class on Saturday, so I'll just temporarily support them."

"Oh."

Fu Nianyu replied lightly, and the two fell into silence again.After a while, he asked again in a low voice.

"Sunday... are you coming?"

"Do you still need me?" Chi Fan asked back.

"Of course I need it." Fu Nianyu said immediately?

"Really?" Chi Fan hesitated, "Are you... still planning to take the domestic college entrance examination?"

"Of course." Fu Nianyu stopped and looked at him in surprise, "How could I not take the college entrance examination?"

Chi Fan was startled, and couldn't help but stop: "But I heard? You are considering going abroad to study."

"What? Who said that?" Fu Nianyu was at a loss, but he quickly realized that a burst of anger suddenly appeared in his eyes.

"Did that bastard Fu Siyan say that?" He asked through gritted teeth.
