Cross the sea

The rain in Haishi always fell without warning, the blue-gray sky quickly enveloped the whole city, the thin raindrops hit the windshield, and the high and low scattered buildings ahead became blurred.

Li Chengyun remembered that the day he got his driver's license was also in the same weather. Li Xiangting picked him up and went directly to the 4S store. A man in a suit was waiting outside the store with an umbrella. A car covered with a red cloth was parked inside the huge transparent glass window new car.

"In the future, you can go directly wherever you want to go."

Li Xiangting handed him the car keys in the leather case, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Father will only give you this car, and you have to rely on yourself to change the car in the future."

The appearance of his father in his imagination was completely different from now.

Li Xiangting was sitting by the window, and when he saw Li Chengyun coming in from the door, he raised his hand at him.

Li Xiangting wore a shirt with a casual style, and the expression on his face was soft and familiar to Li Chengyun.

"Just order a few dishes, and they should all be your favorite."

Li Chengyun nodded and didn't answer, he looked at his father sitting opposite, his expression was not tough.

The rain outside the window was getting heavier, Li Xiangting picked up the cup and blew the tea foam on his face, paused for a while and asked, "Did your mother tell you?"

"That's it."

Li Chengyun leaned back in the chair, "She might think you've told me."

Li Xiangting shook his head with a smile, he took a sip of tea, with a helpless expression, "She's still the same."

Li Chengyun sat up straighter, leaned his elbows on the table, crossed his hands in front of his face, and said with a smile, "What does it look like? Don't you like it?"

"If I didn't like her, you wouldn't be sitting here mocking me."

Li Xiangting's words were relaxed, as if cheating and then agreeing to a divorce with his wife was as natural as snow in winter.

"Isn't it because she could help you in your official career at that time?"

Li Chengyun lowered his eyes and stirred the coffee a few times, a light coffee-colored vortex briefly appeared in the white porcelain cup, Li Chengyun raised his head, looked into Li Xiangting's eyes, and said, "I almost believed that I was the crystallization of love."

Li Xiangting did not evade, he looked at Li Chengyun very naturally: "If you said this kind of thing ten years ago, I would explain it to you more, but you are almost 21 years old now, do you still care if you are the crystallization of love?"

"nor."

Li Chengyun smiled. He turned his head and looked out the window at a middle-aged couple who were hiding from the rain. The clothes and trousers were covered with water stains of different shades. Li Chengyun turned his head, lowered his head and took a sip of coffee. Said: "They are all embryos."

"There are some things about adults that you can't understand."

When the dishes were served, Li Chengyun picked up the chopsticks and didn't answer the conversation. The atmosphere of the meal was quite relaxed. Li Xiangting would occasionally pick up dishes for him, and took a few phone calls at work.

"Go home in a while?"

Li Xiangting took a piece of pork neck and gave it to Li Chengyun. Li Chengyun moved aside, took a sip of soup and said, "Go back to school."

Li Xiangting nodded: "Then I will take you back to school, and I will ask the driver uncle to drive your car back."

Maybe the summer is really coming to an end, when Li Chengyun walked out through the glass revolving door, he began to feel cold.

The driver walked around to the back seat to open the door for him. As soon as the door was opened, the paper bag on the seat fell down, revealing the dark brown shoebox inside.

Li Xiangting's hand on the seat belt paused, and he told the driver to put the things in the trunk. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Li Chengyun who was standing still, and he turned his head.

"Buy something for a friend's son."

Li Xiangting explained.

The driver on the side was still bent over to get things in the back seat. Li Chengyun handed him the car keys, then smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said no, then walked to the passenger window and bent down slightly.

"I can't understand what you said about adults just now."

Li Chengyun was soon wet by the rain. He pushed back his broken hair and bent his eyes, "I quite agree, so if I want to do something that a child would do, I hope you will understand."

Before Li Xiangting could speak, Li Chengyun took a few steps back, said goodbye, turned and walked in the opposite direction.

It rained suddenly, and there were many people on the road without umbrellas. Li Chengyun was not in a hurry to avoid the rain, and it took him more than ten minutes to walk to the dormitory.

Because the school was on holiday, there was no one in the dormitory, and only the emergency lights were turned on in the corridor. Li Chengyun pushed open the door and saw Hezhen sitting at the desk and watching a laptop.

He Zhen was startled by the sound of the door being pushed, and opened his mouth slightly. When he saw Li Chengyun who was drenched all over, he was stunned for two seconds, then stood up without saying a word and went to the cabinet to get the hair dryer.

Li Chengyun walked to the window and watched He Zhen tiptoe slightly, stretching his arms to reach the basket on the top of the cabinet.

He Zhen doesn't really talk much, he knows when to speak and when not to speak, which is already much better than most people.

In fact, it shouldn't be asked, but after such a long time, Li Chengyun was curious about He Zhen for the first time.

"Why do you like me?"

He Zhen turned his back to him, stopped for a while, turned around, walked to his side, resting his thin white fingers on the window sill.

"Do you still remember the time you took me over the wall, I couldn't get up anyway, everyone else was leaving, only you were still pulling me there."

Li Chengyun looked at He Zhen's profile, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if he was talking about the happiest moment in his 20 years of life.

"Is it time for school ban?"

Li Chengyun retrieved that memory a few minutes later.

"correct."

After waiting for a while, Li Chengyun realized that He Zhen had no intention of speaking, so he took the initiative to ask, "And then?"

He Zhen raised his head, opened his eyes wide, looked at him with a naive expression, and said, "No more."

In the memory fragment that Li Chengyun recalled, the three girls who were standing outside the fence wall because of the school ban, he turned up first, and then stretched out his hand to pull the remaining three girls up.

It seemed that there was another person standing some distance away from them, wearing a baseball cap with a large brim. Out of politeness and politeness, Li Chengyun squatted on the high wall and asked him if he wanted to come up.

Speaking of it, this is the least important moment in Li Chengyun's life.

"You almost fell off."

He Zhen's voice suddenly became intermittent, "I ran into you again later, at the embankment, you took the wine, I accidentally broke the wine bottle, and the glass ball scratched your right brow bone, you pinch it Touched my neck and said he was going to strangle me."

He Zhen paused for a while, his hand on the window sill dropped, he turned around and looked at Li Chengyun, his eyes were bright, but his blinking speed became very slow.

"We made an appointment at the time that we would drink at the river bank at ten o'clock the next night. I went, but you didn't come."

In the dark yellow light, Hezhen's brows and eyes looked soft, he licked his dry lips, and showed a somewhat embarrassed smile, "I will go on the third day too, you, are you delayed by something? Ah, I don't want you to explain what it means—" There are many gentle neutral words, and he can pick any one that He Zhen can accept.

Li Chengyun turned sideways, he leaned against the wall, lowered his head and looked at He Zhen for a while, watching He Zhen's fingers constantly rubbing the seam of his trousers, and his Adam's apple rolling up and down slightly.

"I've been pretty free."

Li Chengyun paused for a few seconds, then said with a smile: "If I didn't go, I probably forgot."

He Zhen looked very calm, he pursed his lips, turned his body back again, put his hands on the window sill, and muttered softly, "That's right."

Li Chengyun didn't speak, Hezhen stood for a while, stretched out his hand and pushed the window open, and the rain slanted by the wind fell on the two of them.

"Actually, I don't like you that much either."

He Zhen turned his head, eyes slightly bent, "I just want to have sex with you."

Li Chengyun looked at Hezhen, lowered his eyes and smiled casually and said, "Okay, when you make me interested, just do it."
