Cross the sea

The light in the living room was still on, and the warm light was shining on the lawn outside through the cracks in the curtains. He Zhen pushed open the door, and He Ping was nestled on the sofa, her hair was much longer than when they met last time, and it was loosely tied behind her head.

Seeing the figure at the door, He Ping turned her head, and a smile appeared on her face in the next second.

She got up from the sofa, trotted to the door and hugged Hezhen, patted the hand behind her back twice, then said with a smile without thinking: "Short hair is also good-looking, and people look energetic and strong. It's..."

He Zhen also laughed: "Why don't you sleep so late?"

"Isn't this waiting for you to come back? Your uncle drank some wine today. I guess you two will see each other tomorrow."

He Ping gathered the blanket around her body, and squeezed Hezhen's arm twice: "Have you eaten tonight? Shall I serve you a bowl of noodles?"

In fact, He Zhen had eaten it before. Yuan Jianan took him to meet some friends He Zhen didn’t know each other. During the meal, Yuan Jianan chatted and picked up food for him. Soon the dishes were piled up to the brim. In fact, there were quite a lot of them. He doesn't like to eat food, but soldiers are the most disgusted with people wasting food, so He Zhen stuffs it all into his mouth.

He Ping looked up at him, wondering if people can't stop the car after the age of 45, and the aging can even show through the roots of the dyed black hair.

So He Zhen nodded and said yes, and seeing He Ping's back walking into the kitchen, he added: "I want to eat another poached egg."

The door lock behind him rang, followed by the smell of alcohol permeating the space instantly. He Zhen didn't turn his head, and the people standing at the door didn't move. They just stood there until He Ping poked her head out of the kitchen, and then said with a smile : "Ah Cheng is back too, do you want to eat noodles?"

Li Chengyun came over and stood beside He Zhen, with the air-conditioning on his body that hadn't dissipated, when his finger touched the back of He Zhen's hand, He Zhen shrank his hand.

After Li Chengyun changed his shoes, he sat on the sofa, played the movie on the TV screen and pressed the pause button, and the warm yellow light fell on his hair. He Zhen stood for a while and walked over, sitting cross-legged on the single sofa .

The sensor light bar on the roof gradually lowered its brightness as the screen went dark, neither of them spoke, the smoker turned on in the kitchen was mixed with the background music of the movie, the sunset and the beach appeared on the huge screen, and the hero and heroine began to kiss.

They kissed for a long time, He Zhen looked at the white progress bar that was slowly advancing at the bottom, and glanced at Li Chengyun who was watching very seriously from the other side.

He Ping came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles, put it in front of Li Chengyun, smiled and asked him to taste the saltiness.

He Zhen looked at He Ping and couldn't help laughing at her: "Mom, what kind of youth pain movie are you watching, I wish I could kiss for two hours."

"Just look for one."

He Ping smiled and glared at him. She didn't return to the kitchen until Li Chengyun nodded and said that the saltiness was just right.

Li Chengyun didn't look very hungry, he picked up the shrimp skin in the soup bit by bit, stopped for a while and suddenly said: "What do you think of this movie?"

He Zhen was stunned for a moment, then looked at the picture on the screen again: "It's not good, the kissing scene is not beautiful at all."

Li Chengyun looked at the screen steadily, and his whole body was covered with indelible blue. Before He Ping came out, Hezhen heard Li Chengyun say to him: "You do the same when you kiss, keep your face up and your eyes open."

Putting the steaming noodles in front of him, He Zhen suddenly felt a large vacancy in his body. He lowered his head to eat the noodles to try to fill it, but bit his tongue when he took the second bite, and then began to cry illogically.

This scene is quite weird. He and his brother who reorganized the family are sitting together eating a bowl of extremely salty egg noodles. One eats very slowly, while the other stuffs it into his mouth and tears.

Li Chengyun took out a tissue and handed it to him when the movie switched scenes, but Hezhen didn't pick it up, so Li Chengyun just held it with no extra expression on his face.

When He Zhen told An Qianqiu about this matter, An Qianqiu was silent on the phone. He Zhen heard the sound of burning shredded tobacco. In the next second, An Qianqiu gave a four-word evaluation: back to light.

It's like a fish whose head has been cut off on the cutting board and can't help twitching. It has nothing to do with love or not, it's hallucinations and conditioned reflexes.

"Are you going to the class reunion next week?"

He Zhen stood on the terrace and looked down at the large oil-green lawn in the yard downstairs. Li Chengyun sat on the rattan recliner and looked at the tablet on his lap with his back turned to him.

"you want to go?"

"You are the only friend of mine, and it doesn't make sense to go there."

He Zhen turned around and stood leaning against the railing.

An Qianqiu laughed, and at the same time there was an information notification sound. After a few seconds of silence, An Qianqiu said in a relaxed tone: "Go, idle is idle anyway."

He Zhen nodded, and he looked at Li Chengyun in the yard again. He still maintained the posture just now, but there was an extra glass in his hand, reflecting colorful light in the sun.

The day of the class reunion was scheduled to be a rest day. At the same time that Hezhen came out of the bedroom after changing his clothes, Li Chengyun, who was sitting in the living room downstairs, just happened to close his computer. open.

It was obvious that the two people had the same starting point and destination, but they seemed to have discussed it, and neither of them spoke.

Looking at the scarlet taillights that quickly disappeared from sight, He Zhen remembered the story he heard from An Qianqiu that night. It seems that Li Chengyun doesn't seem to like him very much, no matter in the past or now, and it may be true. , He Zhen began to be out of breath.

Perhaps because of the rest day, the traffic jam was worse than imagined. A large number of cars with red lights on seemed to line up to cross the Naihe Bridge, and Li Chengyun was the only one who wanted to drink Mengpo soup.

During the queuing time on the viaduct, Li Chengyun took his mobile phone and clicked on the academic paper on psychogenic amnesia, which explained the treatment method very clearly, but did not analyze how to get this disease that is pitied by heaven .

If it cannot be redeemed, then it is only fair for the two of them to give up together. Li Chengyun also has a lot of things that he doesn't want to remember, such as He Zhen who stretched his head and asked him if he wanted to touch him, and Zhen Wei who came to his dreams every night. .

Li Chengyun turned up the volume of the radio, looked at the moving vehicle in front of him, and stepped on the accelerator.

When Li Chengyun was still some distance away from the intersection, he saw An Qianqiu standing at the entrance of the western restaurant. He found a place to park the car. An Qianqiu came over and looked in with his face pressed against the passenger window.

When Li Chengyun got off the car, An Qianqiu frowned: "You came here by yourself?"

Li Chengyun's shadow stretched very long on the concrete floor, he laughed and said, "Otherwise."

"Who sent a text message begging me to let me come to the class reunion, now I'm pretending."

An Qianqiu sneered, and pulled up the long hair on the nape of her neck a little annoyed.

Li Chengyun stood on the steps, hooking the car keys loosely with his index finger, An Qianqiu saw the black bell dangling back and forth on the key ring.

"It's also impossible to pry open his head and implant some chips in it."

Li Chengyun put the car keys in his pocket, and said lightly, "I can only wait."

This plan is too negative for Li Chengyun, but An Qianqiu can't think of another way for the time being. She sighed lightly and kicked the pebbles on the ground back and forth with her toes: "Then how long are you going to wait?"

"Wait first, don't wait until you don't want to wait."

There were a lot of people coming to the class reunion, and there were two big boxes in total. Li Chengyun should be the talk of the crowd.

Li Chengyun's career deals with money, and no one will have trouble with RMB. Many students who have met or not met have gone up to drink with him, and Li Chengyun accepted it all with a smile.

Until the box door was pushed open, and the bright lights in the corridor illuminated the clear yellow liquid in the glass, He Zhen stood at the door.

An Qianqiu unconsciously turned his head to look at Li Chengyun who was surrounded by the crowd. Li Chengyun raised his eyebrows lightly through the gap of the crowd, and then raised his wine glass to the people at the door.

"My brother is here."

Li Chengyun said with a smile.
