imaginary rival

By the time a bunch of people finished singing and drinking, it was already quite late.

Ruan Yu finally rushed into the box before the end of the show, and closed the door behind him. Jiang Shiyu seemed to see who he had shut the door, but Ruan Yu looked normal, so he didn't ask any more questions.

After drinking with Ruan Yu, Yan An's heart felt as if he had let go of a big rock. His whole body was relaxed, his arms and legs were loose, and he could go straight to the sky with a flutter.

While chatting with him, Jiang Shiyu listened to Lin Xiangxiao singing nursery rhymes, and felt that this person was really a bit magical.

They played here all night, and Lin Xiangxiao really sang nursery rhymes all night. Chang Ze listened to him singing with a accustomed expression: "I asked Yanzi why you came, and Yanzi said..."

"None of your mother's business, you idiot!" Yan An replied loudly.

Lin Xiangxiao was interrupted, couldn't find the tune, and had fun with the villain on the screen for a long time.

"Jiang Shiyu come up and sing one?" Lin Xiangxiao turned to look at him, "You haven't sung all night."

"I can't sing." Jiang Shiyu waved his hands and said with a smile.

"Sing one, Brother Yu!" Yan An shouted, "I haven't heard you sing yet!"

"Ouch, brother Xiaoyu." Sun Ke turned his head to the wall and laughed for a long time.

"What are you two interested in?" Chang Ze laughed, "Brother Xiao Yu, hasn't this title been called for a long time? I remember hearing you call that when I played with Jiang Shiyu for the first time. It's weird. "

Yan An looked at them and was stunned.

"Sing one, brother Xiaoyu," Xie Lanlan said from the side, "We won't laugh at you even if you can't read the lyrics completely."

"At most, take pictures and send them to the class." Chang Ze said.

"Let other people laugh at you." Lin Xiangxiao added.

Jiang Shiyu stared at them for a while, hooked the corners of his mouth helplessly, turned his head and was about to ask Yan An what he wanted to hear, when he met his gaze, he realized that Yan An was still in a daze.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Shiyu looked at him amusedly, and touched him with his arm.

"Ah," Yan An recovered, "No, I was just thinking."

"En." Jiang Shiyu nodded, waiting for his next sentence.

"Did I yell brother Xiaoyu very loudly just now?" Yan An looked at Jiang Shiyu and lowered his voice very hard, "Why did they all hear it?"

Jiang Shiyu leaned back, a little tactically, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. After looking at him for a while, he could almost draw a conclusion in his heart.

Yan An was almost drunk.

"Is it loud?" Yan An was still asking.

"It's not very loud," Jiang Shiyu said with a smile, "The security guard downstairs didn't even hear it. It's not too loud."

Yan An said "Oh", and it took a few seconds for him to react, he turned his head and stared at Jiang Shiyu: "Will you hurt or not!"

Jiang Shiyu smiled happily and stood up.

Yan An's state reminded him of the previous time when Yan An was almost drunk and talked like a roar. At that time, he was still worried about Yan An's liking for Xie Lanlan, and Yan An seemed to be also worried about his liking for Xie Lanlan. thing……

Xie Lanlan is really miserable.

Jiang Shiyu thought with almost a sigh.

At that time, he still didn't dare to admit his feelings, what about Yan An?Although he never asked Yan An when he fell in love with him, he always felt that he couldn't find anything if he asked, but...

Jiang Shiyu was suddenly a little curious.

He went to the karaoke machine and clicked a song. Lin Xiangxiao immediately followed and cut his nursery rhyme. After the screen loaded for a second, the accompaniment sounded, accompanied by five big characters, and everyone in the room fell silent.

After a brief silence, Chang Ze was the first to burst out laughing. Lin Xiangxiao looked to the wall beside him until his shoulders shook with joy, and then Sun Ke and Xie Lanlan laughed wildly. Yan An looked at Jiang Shiyu blankly, I don't know whether to laugh or not.

"Well," Jiang Shiyu cleared his throat, and said with the microphone in hand, "I'll bring you a song about the female ghost in front."

"Fuck!" Chang Ze shouted with a smile, "It's too sloppy!"

Yan An blinked, as if he finally remembered something, leaned back on the sofa with the corners of his mouth curled up, eyes wide open, staring at Jiang Shiyu intently.

After the previous accompaniment ended, Jiang Shiyu cleared his throat again, and the people in the box held their breaths and listened to him singing in the tune of waiting for a thousand years: "The female ghost in front~ the female ghost~ ah~"

This time, no one in the box paused, and the group laughed wildly, but Jiang Shiyu sang very seriously, staring at the screen and singing intently.

After the first half of the song was sung, everyone in the back had already met, and they yelled at the female ghost in front together. Yan An smiled very happily, and his face was flushed with laughter.

Jiang Shiyu turned his head after singing, looked at the people sitting on the sofa, and bowed seriously: "Thank you."

"Good!" Chang Ze gave a standing ovation.

Jiang Shiyu happily sat back beside Yan An, and Yan An's arms were put up immediately, and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word after being happy for a long time.

"Give me an evaluation," Jiang Shiyu said with a smile, "Don't be Guangle."

"It's so good, it's so good," Yan An laughed until his voice trembled, "I've never heard such a good song in my life."

Jiang Shiyu smiled and said nothing.

"To be honest, your voice is pretty nice." Yan An took a deep breath, barely holding back a smile, "Sing a serious song and listen to it next time."

"Okay." Jiang Shiyu nodded seriously.

When I walked out of the ktv, it was still 10:[-] minutes to twelve o'clock. Several people took a taxi home. Sun Ke sent Xie Lanlan back. big man.

Chang Ze took a taxi back by himself, and after sending everyone away, Yan An took out his phone to check the time, and shouted, "There's half an hour left!"

"It's not far from home, half an hour is enough to walk back." Jiang Shiyu quickly pulled him back, "Don't shout."

"Take a taxi back, take a taxi back," Yan An said hastily, "We have to go back to celebrate our birthday."

"Ah." Jiang Shiyu responded with a smile, took out his mobile phone and called a taxi.

Yan An lightly touched the gift box that he had been carrying in his pocket all the time with his fingers, always feeling that he would be a little nervous if he wanted to give this thing to Jiang Shiyu.

He didn't know if Jiang Shiyu still remembered this thing, after all...it has been ten years.

Yan An himself doesn't remember the existence of this thing. If his mother hadn't just opened the photo album to look at it that day, he wouldn't have seen the photo of him and Jiang Shiyu when they were young. Awakened Yan An's memory.

He rummaged through boxes and cabinets at home for a long time, and actually found this thing, and more memories about his childhood were unearthed.

Yan An got into the car, carefully scratched his trouser legs with his fingers, and was still a little absent-minded when he got out of the car.

It's time for a gift!

And it was a small pendant from ten years ago!

Yan An always felt that he should prepare two gifts. In case Jiang Shiyu didn't remember this small pendant from ten years ago, if he gave it away, wouldn't he be so embarrassed that he would commit suicide on the spot?

No, no, suicide in place is not enough.

But it would be embarrassing.

Yan An kept taking deep breaths, and he had imagined more than 1 scenes of Jiang Shiyu holding a small pendant and asking "what is this" in his mind.

Jiang Shiyu kept looking at Yan An from the corner of his eye. Although he didn't know what Yan An was nervous about, Yan An's current state was inexplicably funny.

The two of them didn't talk to each other along the way. When they entered the elevator, Jiang Shiyu asked Yan An if he wanted something for supper, and they ordered a takeaway right now.

Yan An shook his head, it was rare for him not to yell loudly after being drunk.

Jiang Shiyu glanced at him, nodded, took out the key, opened the door and walked in.

"Sit on the sofa for a while," Jiang Shiyu put the key on the shoe cabinet, and said to Yan An, "I'll take something."

"A gift?" Yan An's voice was normal.

"No," Jiang Shiyu said, paused, and murmured to himself, "It's probably part of the gift."

Yan An snorted, sat on the sofa, and took out the small box from his pocket.

Sun Ke and the others brought the gift back to Jiang Shiyu's house by the way, and it hadn't been opened yet. Yan An was not in the mood to open the gift at the moment, he just wanted to see what kind of reaction Jiang Shiyu would have when he saw his gift.

Footsteps gradually came from behind, Yan An immediately turned his head, and saw Jiang Shiyu coming out with a plate, with an unnatural expression on his face.

"Don't be embarrassed!" Yan An shouted quickly, "If you're embarrassed, I'll be embarrassed too!"

"...I'm not embarrassed," Jiang Shiyu said with a sigh, "I'm just a little nervous."

"Ah." Yan An looked at him.

"I...have never made dessert for others to eat," Jiang Shiyu put down the plate, and Yan An finally saw what was inside, although he saw a little edge just now - he paused, and said, "Mu Cake."

Yan An stared at the cake, it should be chocolate-flavored, with a layer of cocoa powder on top, and a kitten's face was sifted with icing sugar on top of the cocoa powder.

"Little Hail?" Yan An asked.

"Well," Jiang Shiyu pursed his lips and smiled, "Not quite like that?"

"Like," Yan An sniffed, "It's so similar."

Jiang Shiyu smiled and said nothing.

Yan An had no way to start with the cake-cutting knife, no matter how he cut it, he would cut small hailstones. The icing area that Jiang Shiyu sifted seemed to be a bit bigger, and he finally cut off the small hailstones completely at a very strange angle. Now, put it on your own plate and eat happily.

"Let's give the gift first," Jiang Shiyu said, taking out the small dark green box from his pocket, "It's almost twelve o'clock."

"Oh, good." Yan An also picked up the small box on the table and handed it over.

At the moment when he handed it over, Yan An saw the box he handed over, and suddenly had a weird guess in his mind.

He raised his eyes, looked at Jiang Shiyu, and found that Jiang Shiyu was also looking at him.

"...It can't be such a coincidence." Yan An was happy.

"What did you send?" Jiang Shiyu's eyes were a little shocked.

"You'll know when you take it apart and take a look." Yan An said.

Jiang Shiyu took the gift, said thank you, and after Yan An was ready, the two of them opened the gift box together like opening a treasure chest.

In two completely different boxes, there are exactly the same small pendants, the material that can be seen everywhere, glass jade for five yuan a piece, worn with red thread, lying quietly in the box.

Yan An and Jiang Shiyu looked at each other, and suddenly laughed wildly.

"Didn't you say that you don't remember when you were a child?" Jiang Shiyu looked at him, took out the pendant, and tightened his grip a little bit.

"I saw it when my mother looked through the photos two days ago." Yan An stared at the two almost identical pendants, and suddenly smiled, "I went looking for them."

He picked up the small jade pendant Jiang Shiyu gave him in the box, turned it over and saw Yan An's name crookedly engraved on the back, and the jade pendant he gave Yan An also had Jiang Shiyu's name engraved on the back. name.

Time seems to be pulled back to childhood, that year at the temple fair, they went to burn incense together, bought a wishing red string from their mother-in-law in the temple, and then used it to wear jade. There are Yan An and Jiang Shiyu.

The mother-in-law who wore the jade for them said that this piece of jade could fulfill a wish. Before the two children could make a wish, Jiang Shiyu's family was about to move from here, so they quietly carved the jade on the back of the jade with a knife. Name, and then give the jade with your name written on it to the other party.

"I'll keep this with me," Xiao Jiang Shiyu said seriously, "When you see it, you'll know that I'm here to find you."

"I, I, I, I will take it with me too," Xiao Yanan cried with snot and tears, "You must find me!"

Little Xie Lanlan was crying beside her, and howling: "Why do you all have gifts! I want it, I want it, I want it!"

The three children howled together, and the three parents comforted them dumbfoundedly, telling them that it's not that they won't see each other, but that they will meet again someday in the future.

Jiang Shiyu suddenly remembered Yan An at that time. He was only seven years old, with a chubby face and chubby arms. He was very cute. He hugged his arms and cried non-stop when something happened.

He looked at the current Yan An again, the little crying bag was gone, replaced by a very handsome guy.

Now that they returned the jade pendant, the childhood agreement was overlaid with a new layer of meaning, and Jiang Shiyu suddenly felt fulfilled.

"Try?" Jiang Shiyu looked at Yan An.

"Try what?" Yan An also looked at him.

"The one you wanted to try early this morning," Jiang Shiyu touched his phone and glanced at it, "It's past twelve o'clock, and you're one day old, do you want to try it?"

As he spoke, he leaned back on the sofa, tucked up a section of the thin shirt inside, exposing a section of his waist, and looked up at Yan An.

Yan An only felt his whole body tense, and an indescribable impulse rushed straight to his forehead. He nodded in a daze, and said vaguely before jumping over to bite Jiang Shiyu's lips: "Try."
