imaginary rival

There are quite a lot of people coming to barbecue this season.

There is a not-so-deep river behind the barbecue site. A few people went to the river to blow the wind for a while. They didn't plan to go down for a swim. The boys went to bring the tent back and set it up, and the girls were brushing the sauce on the skewers.

"Where's the cake?" Yan An walked over and touched Xie Lanlan with his elbow.

"No order," Xie Lanlan said, "I quit sugar recently and don't eat sweets."

"If you don't eat it, we will eat it," Yan An looked at her happily, "Just blow out the candles."

Xie Lanlan glanced at him, turned to look at Sun Ke, made sure that Sun Ke was setting up a tent with his friends and didn't pay attention to this side, then turned his head back, and raised his middle finger to Yan An very solemnly.

"Yan An!" Jiang Shiyu yelled over there, "Come and help me!"

"Here we come!" Yan An immediately turned around and ran over there.

After the four tents were set up, they just occupied the four directions, and the middle circle was used to clamp the barbecue grill. It was quite far from other people who came here to play, and there was a lot of open space here.Qi Xunjing over there has already brought two girls to brush up the barbecue ingredients, and it can be grilled when it is lit.

"Want to drink?" Sun Ke called the boy from Class [-] and shouted, "I'm going to drag two boxes of beer over here!"

"Is there ice?" Xie Lanlan asked immediately, and turned to look at Sun Ke after asking, "I'll just have a sip."

"Billions?" Sun Ke smiled.

"This day must be cold beer," the boy said with a smile, "I'm going."

"Let me accompany you." Yan An immediately followed. Jiang Shiyu looked at the few people present, thought for a while, and followed Yan An.

Except for Qi Xunjing, the two girls that Xie Lanlan called could not be called by their names. In addition, there was a kind of couple buff between Sun Ke and Xie Lanlan, and no one else could get along with him. It was awkward for him to stand there, so he followed Yan An Walking is more comfortable.

He came back with two boxes of beer, and Yan An and the boy named Zhang Ci carried one box each. Jiang Shiyu went there empty-handed and came back empty-handed, feeling embarrassed, and baked a skewer for Zhang Ci after he came back.

"Hey, you are skilled," Zhang Ci admired Jiang Shiyu's clean and neat movements, "If you fail the college entrance examination, you can go out and set up a stall right away."

"Go, go, can you say something nice?" Yan An opened a can of beer and handed it to Sun Ke, and picked it up again, "You study well, you can't fail the exam."

"Say something nice," Zhang Ci thought for a while, then turned to Xie Lanlan and said, "I wish you good luck like Donghai Shoubi Nanshan!"

"Ouch," Xie Lanlan was overjoyed, "Can we be normal? It's like swallowing [-] catties of cephalosporins without taking a sip of wine. It's not impossible."

After she finished speaking, the girls were all happy.

The beer was handed to everyone, and the chicken wings and legs were not yet baked, so everyone decided to have a drink first to show friendship.

"Happy birthday!" Qi Xunjing said with a smile.

"Happy birthday." Yan An and Jiang Shiyu said to Xie Lanlan at the same time.

Xie Lanlan raised the wine bottle in her hand, and said thank you cheerfully. They hadn't even eaten a bunch of barbecue, but they had already drank a bottle.

"Are you sure you can eat barbecue?" Yan An turned his head and asked Jiang Shiyu in a low voice, "Will you spit out half of it?"

"What should I do if I spit it out?" Jiang Shiyu looked serious, "Will you take me to the hospital?"

"Where is the hospital here?" Yan An was also very serious, "At most, find a place to bury you."

Jiang Shiyu was amused for a while, and added peppers to the skewers: "Don't worry, I'm not made of paper."

Yan An glanced at him twice, his eyes were obviously full of distrust.

It takes longer to grill meat, especially things like pork skin, chicken legs, and chicken wings. Jiang Shiyu and a few others are not familiar with it, so they stand by the grill and concentrate on roasting.

Everyone present except him should be able to eat spicy food quite well, so Jiang Shiyu didn't save a bit when sprinkled the chili, and made it for Yan An and Xie Lanlan according to their usual taste.

"Brother Xiaoyu, let's roast two skewers of meatballs." Yan An gnawed on the chicken wings, and stuffed two skewers of meatballs for Jiang Shiyu. He stretched his arms and brought over a few more skewers of meat. "Grill some more of this."

"Yeah." Jiang Shiyu took it and put it away.

The two girls over there came back after going to the bathroom in a team, talking about something playfully, Yan An always felt that they were watching Jiang Shiyu, and felt that he was thinking too much, and after a while he felt that he was not thinking too much, He simply stood in front of the grill and waited for Jiang Shiyu to bake the meatballs.

"Ah!" A girl over there yelled softly, "There's a dog!"

Jiang Shiyu glanced at Yan An.

"Damn, it's so fat." Zhang Ci looked over there, and there were two round little Alaskans running towards this side. Their hair was trimmed and rounded on purpose. From a distance, there are two bouncing fur balls.

"The dogs here are often fed, so get fat." Sun Ke took some bones from a small plate and took them over, and the two dogs immediately surrounded him.

Jiang Shiyu handed the baked meatballs to Yan An.

"Thanks," Yan An took the ball, still looking at the dog, "It's really round."

"It's okay." Jiang Shiyu lowered his head and said.

"What's okay?" Yan An squinted at him, "Can you lift your noble head and look over there, those two dogs are almost rounded into balls, are they okay?"

Jiang Shiyu raised his head and stared at Yan An for a while, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyes moved slowly to the two Alaskas, looked at them for a while, and nodded: "It's not particularly round, the hair shape The problem is that it looks fat, but once the hair shrinks, it will not be much bigger."

Yan An was dubious, bit off a ball and moved towards the dog, stretched out his hand and stroked the dog's head twice, just like what Jiang Shiyu said, these two dogs have fluffy fur, and the hair has been trimmed round Round, just looks fat.

He came back from a leisurely stroll, stopped beside Jiang Shiyu, and took a few skewers to roast.

"Huh?" Jiang Shiyu looked at him.

"You roast yours, I'll roast it for you," Yan An picked, "You don't eat offal, do you?"

"Well," Jiang Shiyu smiled, "I'll bake it myself."

"Didn't you put chili peppers in those in your hand? I will roast them for you that are not spicy," Yan An said. Pay your salary and go play for a while."

Jiang Shiyu smiled and said nothing.

When a young couple appears in a group of people, that couple will inevitably be sanctioned by everyone.

After Yan An and Jiang Shiyu retreated from the grill, Sun Ke and Xie Lanlan were immediately chased away, and the others moved the small table in front of them, staring at them, begging for feeding was very conspicuous in their sight .

Xie Lanlan was speechless: "I'm a birthday star? Shall I cook for you?"

"You guys have a taste of newlywed life in advance," Zhang Ci happily said while biting a bamboo stick, "Isn't it important for the husband and wife to cook together now, you two preview the preview."

"Shut up." Sun Ke looked at Zhang Ci.

Jiang Shiyu ate the crispy bones that Yan An had roasted, and raised his eyes to look at Yan An.

It's okay, the expression is not too ugly.

As expected of having a crush on Xie Lanlan for so many years, Yan An's expression management is very good. If I hadn't seen Yan An's very melancholy sigh, I probably wouldn't have thought about it in that direction.

The strange thing is that Yan An also turned to look at him.

"Why?" Jiang Shiyu asked.

"It's nothing." Yan An pursed his lips, "You shouldn't drink, it's just right."

"It's just that I have a cold, not just an amputation," Jiang Shiyu said and paused for a while, "...All right, just drink two bottles, allow me?"

"Okay." Yan An nodded, and looked at Jiang Shiyu again.

People's feelings should gradually fade away.

After Xie Lanlan and Sun Ke were together, regardless of Jiang Shiyu's willingness or not, his feelings for Xie Lanlan had to fade down.

Otherwise it's... weird.

I hope Jiang Shiyu has faded away from Xie Lanlan.

Yan An lowered his head and thought.

Several people in the room ate skewers grilled by the young couple himself. Xie Lanlan grilled Jiang Shiyu without sprinkling chili peppers. He took a chili bottle and sprinkled some. Yan An glanced at the skewers in his hand. It felt like the peppers sprinkled on top could be counted according to the number of grains, but Jiang Shiyu ate it very happily, so he didn't say much.

They arrived at the barbecue site around noon and in the afternoon. After setting up the tent, they grilled and chatted while eating. Jiang Shiyu didn't feel full until it was almost dark, but he felt that he could still eat. .

He was getting a little tired after eating too much meat, so he went to get a few skewers of vegetables and roasted them, distributed them to everyone, and cleaned them up after eating. It was completely dark.

The two boxes of beer brought in were clean. Sun Ke had a good drinker capacity. He sat down with Yan An and started drinking. It was a bit of a competition for drinking. Xie Lanlan and Jiang Shiyu had to separate them .

"Let me tell you," Yan An put down the wine bottle and put his arm around Jiang Shiyu's neck, "Whenever I see Sun Ke now, I feel like..."

The feeling of being robbed of love?

Jiang Shiyu pursed his lips and looked at him.

"I feel like my daughter has been robbed," Yan An said solemnly, "I really want to find him desperately."

Jiang Shiyu sighed and smiled, took the beer can away from Yan An's hand, and stuffed a bottle of water into his hand.

There is also a bonfire party here at night, everyone can get together to play, it is very lively, Xie Lanlan dragged Sun Ke over there as soon as the bonfire was lit.

Zhang Ci and the others followed him unsteadily, and Yan An went to the bathroom, and when he came back, only Jiang Shiyu was left waiting for him by the table, packing up the leftovers from their eating and drinking.

"Which tent shall we sleep in later?" Yan An helped throw the beer can into the cardboard box.

"Qi Xunjing and the others want to sleep in the green one, and the other two girls want to sleep in the yellow one," Jiang Shiyu said, "We choose the rest."

Yan An glanced at the tent: "Then let's sleep in the black one later, I just threw the bag in it, and leave the bright red one to Sun Ke."

Jiang Shiyu nodded with a smile.

After he cleared the table and turned around, Yan An was gone.

"Yan An?" Jiang Shiyu called out.

"Here!" Yan An's voice came from the black tent.

Jiang Shiyu walked over, opened the tent, bent down to look in, Yan An was about to come out, and the whole person leaned forward, his forehead hit Jiang Shiyu's chin directly, Jiang Shiyu took two steps back holding his chin :"……Hold."

"I haven't fucked yet!" Yan An yelled, rubbing his forehead.

"What are you doing!" Jiang Shiyu pursed his lower lip, as if there was a faint smell of blood.

"I heard you calling me, so I came out!" Yan An continued to roar, "Shouldn't I respond to you!"

"You fucking roar again," Jiang Shiyu pointed at him, and said in a deep voice, "Did you see that river over there..."

"I can't see," Yan An continued to roar, "I've been fucking blind for more than 800 years!"

"Believe it or not, I'll throw myself in right now." Jiang Shiyu finished his words.

"Huh?" Yan An was stunned, got up and looked at Jiang Shiyu, amused, "Fuck, why didn't you follow the script."

"I feel that my force can no longer threaten you," Jiang Shiyu smiled, "What are you doing in the tent?"

"I'll give it a try. I haven't slept in it since it was set up," Yan An said with a smile, "By the way, I brought you a coat. If you feel cold, take it out and put it on yourself."

"What?" Jiang Shiyu was stunned, and he didn't even have time to take back his smile.

"I brought a coat," Yan An said, squatting down and getting back into the tent again, "the very thin one."

After speaking, he pulled out a coat and said, "This is considered a suburb, I asked, it's still quite cold at night, don't have a fever again."

"...I'm really not amputated." Jiang Shiyu squatted down and looked at Yan An.

Yan An sat in the tent, stared at him for a while, and smiled: "I know, bring one just in case, I also want to bring it to Xie Lanlan, I don't care so much if Sun Ke gets jealous."

Jiang Shiyu said nothing.

After the barbecue fire was extinguished, there was still a cluster of small bonfires burning in the middle of the tent. Jiang Shiyu originally planned to wait for Yan An to come back before extinguishing the bonfire. He went to watch the performance with him, but he didn't have time to extinguish it now. When it fell, the firewood burned cracklingly, the sound was not loud, and when it fell into the river, it sounded like thunder to Shiyu's ears.

He paused for a long time, until Yan An looked away uncomfortably, and Jiang Shiyu said, "Are you so concerned about everyone?"

"Ah," Yan An looked towards the corner of the tent, "Du, it's all like this, I've always been like this to my friends, what's wrong?"

It's always been like that with friends.

Jiang Shiyu stared at Yan An for a while, and suddenly sighed lightly: "It's nothing."

Hearing the sigh, Yan An returned his eyes to Jiang Shiyu's face.

Jiang Shiyu squatted in front of him, with his arms on his knees, his eyelids drooping, and his eyelashes down, casting a slanting shadow.

Yan An sat in the tent, watching Jiang Shiyu standing there as if he was kneeling on one knee, he heard his heartbeat speeding up bit by bit, and even some fine sweat oozes from his palms.

After a while, the songs of the bonfire party were changed, and Jiang Shiyu raised his hand and rubbed Yan An's head lightly, and got up to put out the bonfire.

"Let's go to the party," Jiang Shiyu said, "It's been a long time since I started."

"...Oh." Yan An stood up.

Their shadows were elongated by the moonlight and the surrounding firelight. Jiang Shiyu walked in front, and his shadow fell obliquely to Yan An's feet. Yan An stared at his back for a long time, and suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion .

I don't understand, I don't understand... That feeling of embarrassment and discomfort came again.

Yan An lowered his head and clicked his tongue lightly.

"What are you standing here looking at for a long time?" Sun Ke gently pushed Xie Lanlan, "Didn't you say to take pictures with the lamp you bought before?"

"Ah." Xie Lanlan came back to her senses, turned her head and smiled at Sun Ke, "No, it's nothing, I remembered that I didn't bring the lamp here at all, let's go."

Sun Ke looked towards the camp.

Jiang Shiyu and Yan An didn't know what they were talking about just now. The two squatted under the shadow of the tent. From Xie Lanlan's perspective, the two seemed to be stuck together.

Now those two came over.

Sun Ke's eyes fell back on Xie Lanlan's face.

Xie Lanlan's expression couldn't be said to be ugly or not, she looked very conflicted, her eyebrows were tightly knit together, she just pulled out a smile, saying that we should go back first.

"Xie Lanlan, let me ask you..." Sun Ke asked softly, "Are you homophobic?"

Xie Lanlan was stunned for a while, then looked up at Sun Ke, but did not answer this question.
