are you a cat

In the middle and late June, the sun is scorching and the cicadas are singing and noisy.

After the physical education teacher dismissed, the students of Class [-] and [-] of Senior High School swarmed to the shade of the trees beside the playground to enjoy the cool.

Ye Chen and Bai Jingping sat on the steps under the shade of a tree and played online games with Deng Xing, who was also in PE class.

"Yechen." The classmate who just came back from the school supermarket was handing out popsicles to nearby classmates one by one. She tapped Yechen's shoulder with the popsicle.

Yechen's hands were occupied by the mobile phone, he said thank you but didn't take it.

The girl handed the popsicle to Bai Jingping next to him.

Bai Jingping was also busy: "Oh, I'm not free."

That's what he said, but he opened his mouth wide and realized that the girl stuffed a popsicle into his mouth.

"Forget it if you don't have time." The girl rolled her eyes and stuffed the popsicle into her mouth, then walked to the side with the plastic bag in her hand, "Who else wants it?"

"I want it!" Bai Jingping took time out of his busy schedule to express his dissatisfaction, "It's not interesting, my friend."

Turning around after saying that: "Damn! My Chen'er, why did you fall down again?"

Yechen's game character was lying on the ground, blood bar bottomed out.

Deng Xing, who was closest to him, hurried over to help him.

1 minute ago, Deng Xing had just helped Yechen up and told him to hide in a safe place to spray medicine, but before the health bar was full, he was knocked down again.

Deng Xing pushed Ye Chen aside, and took a magnifying glass to carefully observe where the people were hiding in the house across the street.

He asked Yechen: "What's the matter with you today?"

Yechen's game character was sitting in the corner with bandages on, and the progress bar was spinning round and round. Yechen was silent for a while, and replied under Bai Jingping's probing eyes: "It's okay."

This doesn't look like it's going to be all right.

10 minutes after the start of the game, as the usual MVP, Ye Chen didn't get a single head, and he didn't know how many times he was knocked down. This kind of low-level mistakes that don't hide blood recovery can be made, and everyone can find him absent-minded.

Not to mention Bai Jingping, even Deng Xing didn't believe it.

Deng Xing: "If you really encounter something, you can tell us about it, don't hold everything to yourself."

Bai Jingping nodded, and manipulated the game character to run up and down to search for supplies: "It's not bad, just like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle."

"Running around." Deng Xing said, "I'm going to find a car."

They had just checked out the people nearby, and it was considered safe. Bai Jingping glanced at Yechen who was sitting on a step lower than him, and touched him with his knee.

Ye Chen didn't look back either.

On the screen of the mobile phone, Deng Xing was leading a team of four of them on a drug run.

He looked at the cars running on the mountains and said, "If you have a...friend..."

"He keeps getting mad at you for no reason—"

Before he finished speaking, Bai Jingping couldn't help answering: "Isn't it you?"

Yechen: "..."

He paused, but still couldn't help but looked back at Bai Jingping, and then admitted, "Yes, it's me."

Speaking of this, he had nothing to hide, and simply talked about the quarrel with Xu Yuxing yesterday.

He said that because Xu Yuxing mentioned Yu Ning, he couldn't control his temper, and then quarreled with Xu Yuxing.

Bai Jingping had always worn a pair of trousers with Yechen, and he immediately became upset, "I still ask you to do this, to ask you to do that, do you really think of yourself as an onion and feel that you are important?"

Since Deng Xing didn't go to the same school as the two of them, it was the first time he heard such a person as Xu Yuxing: "Who is he?"

Bai Jingping: "Yu Ning is his cousin."

Although Yechen didn't talk about his family's affairs in detail, at any rate, he has been good brothers for several years since junior high school, so he still knows something more or less.

Hearing that it was Yu Ning's relative, Deng Xing stood by Ye Chen's side unconditionally, followed Bai Jingping and scolded him: "Listen to him farting."

"Does he have self-knowledge?" Bai Jingping said while fighting with someone, "I still have limited patience. It's not that I begged you to coax me with his uncle!"

The anger in the words is also the same as substituting himself into Ye Chen.

Not helping relatives, Bai Jingping and Deng Xing gave Xu Yuxing a good meal.

Until Deng Xing's girlfriend Deng Suisui, who had been silent all this time, said, "But I think he's right."

Bai Jingping: "Sister Deng, which side are you on?"

"Of course it's Yechen's side." Deng Suisui said, "But I'm on Yechen's side and I think what he said is right and doesn't conflict... Hey, Deng Xing, don't step on me..."

Ye Chen hadn't said much since they started scolding Xu Yuxing, and now he heard Deng Suisui speaking for Xu Yuxing, and he was still silent.

Only the game character is still moving.

Deng Suisui: "You should have said that because you were so angry at the time, right? You see, his original intention was to let you directly tell him if you have any dissatisfaction. After all, communication is very important in the process of interacting with others. Yes, but you can't do this for the time being, but you can't say that you can't do it, not directly saying that you can't do it, but asking him instead."

"To give an inappropriate example, it's like when I go home and play with my mobile phone on the sofa. My mother wants me to study, but she can't just say it. Instead, she wants to ask me if I know how to play with my mobile phone every day. Then I will listen to it. I'm going to get angry too, and I'm sure I can't help arguing with her."

"Although the example is a bit inappropriate, but the meaning is that." Deng Suisui's voice came through the earphones, which was slightly different from her usual voice, "And people's patience is inherently limited, if you and him have been like this Get along, if you lose your temper at every turn, there will indeed be a day when your patience will run out."

Not only Ye Chen, even Deng Xing and Bai Jingping didn't speak.

They were persuaded by Deng Suisui's "inappropriate" example.

Deng Suisui: "I didn't realize this before, but I recently listened to a psychology professor's class on the Internet, and it happened to talk about interpersonal communication. In fact, if we can communicate well, many problems can be solved."

Bai Jingping glanced at Yechen, but he couldn't see his expression from behind.

Just when he was hesitating whether to say something to relieve the awkward atmosphere at the moment, Yechen's character in the game had completely turned gray: "Huh?"

Ye Chen is not in the mood to play games.

He could understand Deng Suisui's words, and even agreed with her words.

But understanding, agreeing and being able to do it are two different things.

It’s not that you know how to behave after reading two psychology-related books and understanding these principles. Human beings, no one can guarantee that they can completely control their emotions and not be dominated by them.

Ye Chen couldn't do it.

He clearly knew that Xu Yuxing was innocent, but he didn't know what happened between him and Yuning.

He also didn't know why Ning Ning was called Ning Ning.

But Ye Chen couldn't control it.

And since Xu Yuxing had already broken into his territory without authorization, why should he ask himself to cater to him.

Why should he tell him what he doesn't know, can't he guess or ask, can't he ask Yu Xin or Yun Ning?

In Yechen's heart, it was as if there were two teams with different positions in a tug-of-war, and one side was saying that he was self-willed and ignorant, just like Yu Xin and Ye Zeyang reprimanded him every time.

At the same time, he was saying that he was not wrong. Since Xu Yuxing wanted to understand him, why couldn't he be more patient?

Patience that would be consumed twice or three times, he didn't need it from the beginning.

He put away his cell phone and stood up, and said to Bai Jingping, "I'm leaving."

Bai Jingping: "What are you doing?"

Yechen stood at the bottom of the steps: "There's an art exhibition I'm going to see."

Bai Jingping looked around and lowered his voice: "Are you coming back this afternoon?"

The two of them just looked at each other, and Ye Chen didn't need to tell Bai Jingping to understand: "Recently, it seems that Director Wang is leading people to strictly arrest people skipping classes. Be careful not to get caught."

Yechen nodded and left, walking around from the playground to the back of the school dormitory.

I said before that this wall is turned over to the factory next door, and because it is inconvenient, there are not many people there.

He didn't think much about it, and after a few steps from the run-up, he kicked up the wall and jumped down.

Then he was caught by the dean who was guarding the other side of the wall.

Recently, Director Wang has been strictly catching violations of discipline and regulations. He also skipped classes and violated school regulations, and even entered and left the factory area of ​​a state unit without permission.

Since being caught is a typical example, of course it is to serve as an example to others, review and punish the parents, and no one can be missing.

When he was carried into the dean's office and watched as Director Wang called Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu called Xu Yuxing in front of him to inform him to come to school.

There is only one word left in Yechen's mind——

Depend on.
