as you meet

Every time Ji Yusheng sees sunflowers in art exhibitions and on the roadside these years, he will think of Shi Yu when he left without saying goodbye, and he can't help but feel regret and a trace of self-blame in his heart.

In fact, he was already aware of the negative impact of Shi Yu and Cheng Yanbai's morbid relationship on Shi Yu back then, but at the time he was not talking about Shi Yu unless he mentioned it, and because Zhang Shu stopped him, He also mentioned Song Shihe and the past, so when Shi Yu left suddenly when he was making the dream catcher, he didn't make up his mind to follow.

He always wondered, if he had followed up and given the unfinished dream catcher to Shi Yu, would he have let the sun clear away the clouds and mist to disperse Shi Yu's nightmare to welcome the sweet dream instead of walking away? Into the dense dark clouds, tormented by nightmares over the years, getting deeper and deeper.

His thoughts brought him back five years ago to the day when he and Shi Yu made a dream catcher together after Song Shihe left.

In the weeks after the quarrel, Li Jieying was almost nervously concerned about his school situation. She not only found out Ji Yusheng's class schedule through various methods and harassment, but also whenever Song Shihe was teaching art class time, She would call and ask Ji Yusheng to make a video call to her to show her where he was, so Ji Yusheng had to stop attending class.

In order to participate in the dream catcher activity with Shi Yu, Ji Yusheng also made many excuses to explain to his mother that he was able to sneak out to participate. Li Jieying tortured him so much that as soon as he sat down, Shi Yu looked worried Looking at his tired face, he asked, "Shengsheng, what's wrong with you?"

"You don't look very good." He has been thinking of various ways to deal with the nervous Li Jieying for the past few weeks. Of course, he is also very depressed in his heart. In addition, Song Shihe left after that rainy night, and he can't find anyone. Confiding, my heart seems to be missing a corner.

While putting down his schoolbag, Ji Yusheng shook his head and said, "Ah, it's nothing. Maybe it's because I've been under a lot of academic pressure recently and didn't sleep well."

"Ah, did you miss the art appreciation class because you were too busy? I thought you didn't attend because Professor Song wasn't around."

Ji Yusheng shook his head, smiled and said:

"No, the class is not just for Mr. Song...Professor, it's just that the end of the term is approaching, and I'm a little too busy with my studies."

Shi Yu nodded depressedly when he heard this, and said: "Yes, after you reminded me, I just remembered that the devil's final term and a lot of DDL are coming..." But after a while, he clapped his hands again to adjust his mood He smiled and said: "Then it's great that we can make a dream catcher together today, and we can take this opportunity to relax!" Shi Yu picked up a feather from a pile of decorations on the table, waved it in front of Ji Yusheng, and said: "It is said that when the feathers of the dream catcher flutter, the dream will fly through the small hole, and the nightmare will be trapped if it passes through the net, but the good dream will fly to us," Shi Yu said, stretching out his hand to make flying and trapping Then he flew down the feather to Ji Yusheng's shoulder, patted and said:

"This will help you get rid of your nightmares and have a good rest!"

Seeing Shi Yu's cute behavior, Ji Yusheng couldn't help laughing, "Well, thank you, you too!" He hesitated for a while after putting his schoolbag under the stool, and asked Shi Yu cautiously: "You... .how's it going?"

"Huh? What can I do?" Shi Yu seemed to be asking the question knowingly, pretending to play with the dream catcher materials with a relaxed face and asked, and then said: "After traveling around and finding enough materials, eat well and sleep well. Hehe, I've been looking forward to this event!"

Although he didn't know what happened, when he saw Shi Yu looking at the materials on the wooden table, his eyes glowed, as if he had become as cheerful as before, and Ji Yusheng was also happy for him.

"By the way, is there any difference between the feathers of different colors?"

"Yusheng."

While they were chatting happily, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind. Ji Yusheng turned his head, his pupils dilated instantly when he saw the person coming, and when he let go of his hand, the beads in his hand fell to the wood with a patter. table and floor.

"Is anyone here?" The man walked up to Ji Yusheng and asked cautiously.

Seeing Ji Yusheng staring at him blankly but not making a sound, Shi Yu replied politely for him even though he was a little confused:

"Well, there's no one here, you can sit here!"

After the man sat down, Shi Yu observed for a while, couldn't help being curious, pointed at the two of them, and asked softly:

"Do you know each other?"

The man nodded to Shi Yu as a greeting, and then said:

"Well, we are classmates in middle school."

Then he stretched out his hand again and said to Shi Yu:

"Hi, I'm Zhang Shu."

"Hello Zhang, I'm Shi Yu. Shengsheng and I met in art appreciation class."

Hearing this, Zhang Shu glanced at Ji Yusheng and said in a low voice, "...art class?"

After hearing their conversation, Ji Yusheng clenched his hands, lowered his head firmly and remained silent, Shi Yu heard that he was about to say something, but he choked when he saw the person two tables away.

He saw Cheng Yanbai and Mingtuo sitting together, and Mingtuo was helping him unpack the materials, while Cheng Yanbai was looking at Mintuo attentively with his chin resting on his chin.Mingtuo took two beads, put them in the sunlight, and then leaned close to Cheng Yanbo's ear and said something to him, Cheng Yanbo actually laughed cheerfully.Seeing Cheng Yanbai's smiling face in the sun, Shi Yu suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Cheng Yanbai's cheerful and bright appearance for a long time, no, since Cheng Yanbai became famous, it seemed that they hadn't smiled so comfortably at each other for a long time pass...

Shi Yu looked at Cheng Yanbai and Mingtuo sadly, but Ji Yusheng seemed to be deliberately avoiding the people sitting next to him. The strange silence between the three of them was finally broken by the host of the society.

"Students are welcome to participate in our activity of making dream catchers. In fact, this activity is in line with the theme of our art society this year, "Chasing Dreams". We..."

"So before we start, let's briefly introduce the background of the dream catcher. The dream catcher originally originated from the Chippewa people in North America, and it is a traditional handicraft of them. The round frame of the dream catcher is 'Jizi ( giizis)', which means the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. At night when people are sleeping soundly, only 'bawedjige', which means good dreams, can pass through the small hole in the middle. And 'bawedjige' ( bawedjigewin)', or nightmares as we call them, are caught in the net. And the first ray of sunlight the next morning dispels the trapped nightmare. (1)"

"Next, let's catch dreams together! First of all, everyone first bend the dried grape vines that we soaked for half an hour into a circle. Twist the position twice, so that it is easier to shape..."

They silently followed the learned people and did a few steps. When it was time to weave the net, Shi Yu made a mess of the net. Ji Yusheng felt strange seeing this scene, because Shi Yu's professional hands-on ability was already very strong, but now Make the dream catcher look like this.

"Shi Yu, I need you to take care of it for you." When Ji Yusheng asked, he looked up and saw Shi Yu's bloodless face. He immediately moved closer and asked:

"Shi Yu? What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

"I'm sorry, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable..." Shi Yu put down the dream catcher with some force, and then stood up.

"Ah?" Ji Yusheng was a little unresponsive, staring blankly at Shi Yu who suddenly stood up.

"I'm leaving first, I'm sorry." Shi Yu clasped his hands together to apologize and left in a hurry. The distance between the seat and the door was very short, and Ji Yusheng saw that Shi Yu tripped twice on the flat ground. Second-rate.

While looking at Shi Yu's dazed back, Ji Yusheng also heard another sound of a chair being pulled away.Looking back, I saw Cheng Yanbai on the other side also stood up at this moment, and startled Mingto who was concentrating on weaving the net next to him.

"What's wrong?" Minto asked, steadying his trembling hand.

"Didn't you say that he would come to me after this?" Cheng Yanbo asked without emotion, staring at the door.

Ming Tuo paused, his expression stiffened for a moment, but he adjusted his expression in an instant, patted Cheng Yanbai's shoulder with a smile, leaned into his ear and said:

"correct."

Cheng Yanbai frowned, moved away uncomfortably, and said indifferently:

"But he's gone."

Ever since Shi Yu came in, Cheng Yanbai had been watching him quietly, but every time he looked over, he would look away, because he was still angry, and when he was angry, he dared to make him worry. would leave him.But just when he was complacent that Shi Yu was still watching him, and felt that Shi Yu would return to him in the end, Shi Yu's sudden departure gave him another blow in the head.

"what?"

Without waiting for Mingto's reaction, Cheng Yanbai left him and wanted to go out to find Shi Yu, but Mingto grabbed his hand vigorously.

"You can't find him in such a hurry." Minto persuaded a little anxiously, "And...and it was agreed that you would accompany me to make a dream catcher. After you leave, I will make two by myself." ?"

Cheng Yanbo paused, and when Minto thought he had persuaded him to stay, he packed the materials in a plastic bag, shook his hand vigorously, and said, "He looks very bad, I want to see Him, you do it yourself." He followed Shi Yu away without looking back.

Seeing Mingtuo yelling "Cheng Yanbo!", he immediately followed him and ran out. Ji Yusheng also picked up his dream catcher and Shi Yu's semi-finished product to run out to find them, but he was silenced for a long time when he just stood up. Zhang Shu stopped.

"Yusheng, we...haven't seen each other for a long time, can we have a chat?"

Facing his old friends who broke up unhappy back then, Ji Yusheng said a little uncomfortably, "Uh, I still have something to do, I'll take it one by one."

"Yusheng, Professor Song and I talked about you,"

Ji Yusheng, who had just stood up, froze as if frozen.

"I didn't blame you, we didn't blame you."

Hearing this sentence, Ji Yusheng felt a little unsteady, Zhang Shu grabbed his arm and said:

"Talk to me."
