Instinctive reaction

Lin Leyang was woken up by a phone call. When he opened his eyes, his hair and neck were soaked in sweat. The air conditioner was not turned on in the room, and the windows were still open. The sultry wind lifted the thin curtains and poured in.

He sat up in a daze, dizzy for a while, and had a severe headache. He picked up his mobile phone and checked the time, it was five past two, and he slept on the bed for almost an hour, with a faint soreness in the joints of his arms.

The phone was still blinking, it was a call from Li Chuan, and just as he was about to pick it up, the light on the screen went out by itself.

Lin Leyang hadn't completely escaped from the dream, so he couldn't replay it immediately, but soon, Li Chuan called again in less than half a minute.

This time he connected the phone.

"Hello?" Lin Leyang didn't expect his voice to be so hoarse and nasal.

The phone fell silent for a while before saying, "Are you sleeping?"

"Hmm... I accidentally fell asleep."

"That's good."

Lin Leyang was puzzled: "What do you mean 'that's good'?"

"I thought you were ignoring me again. I sent you a lot of messages and you didn't reply." Li Chuan stood in the corridor, and the surroundings were very quiet. It was not the end of get out of class time, and he went out through the back door of the classroom without authorization.

"Ah, no, I fell asleep." Lin Leyang quickly explained.

"Did I wake you up?"

"No, I just woke up." Lin Leyang told a white lie, not wanting to hear the boy apologize to him again.

From this moment on, he suddenly couldn't recall the content of the dream, only the feeling of soreness and swelling remained in his chest, and his heart seemed to be grasped by a hand.

Li Chuan still apologized to him, and said softly, "I'm sorry, then you can continue to sleep."

Lin Leyang clutched the phone, opened his mouth to persuade him to stay, and wanted the boy to talk to him more.

"Then you should also study hard." He suppressed the willful request in his heart, and only remembered after saying this sentence, "Aren't you in class now?"

Li Chuan had already reached the stairs, and said while going downstairs: "Well, not yet, I'm going up soon."

"Then I won't disturb you anymore." Lin Leyang said.

Li Chuan: "Don't bother, I want to listen to you more."

This made Lin Leyang how to reply, but Li Chuan didn't ask for his reply.

"Brother, you should hang up first, otherwise I will be reluctant to hang up after class."

He spoke too seriously, and the voice came from the other end of the phone, which shocked Lin Leyang's ears like electricity, and his whole back was numb.

After hanging up the phone, he pressed his chest and started to breathe slowly. The weather was so hot that he couldn't breathe, his face was thin red, his heart was stuffy, and he fell on the bed with no strength in his limbs.

Lin Leyang clicked on WeChat, and Li Chuan sent him a lot of messages. At first, he told him that he had arrived at school, and then asked him why he ignored him every few minutes. Gradually, the text became more and more concise, and finally it was a long list of The "brother" who didn't know it thought it was a child who took the parent's mobile phone by mistake, and only picked out words that he could spell and kept typing.

Lin Leyang looked at each line carefully, and slid down to the bottom little by little.

At this moment, he could no longer deny the love that filled his heart.

At the end of this sweltering June, during the absurd time travel, the memory only stayed in his liking someone he shouldn't like.

When the bell rang for the end of get out of class, Li Chuan slowly turned back from the outside.

Peng Siyuan gave him a thumbs up, "You are really good, you dare to skip Lao Yuan's class? Aren't you afraid that he will fail you?"

Li Chuan answered him: "I will read the book carefully."

Peng Siyuan: "?"

Peng Siyuan: "You want to pass the exam, it's not very difficult, what did you do just now?"

Li Chuan handed him one of the two bottles of cold drinks in his hand, sat back and said, "Call."

"Aren't you talking nonsense? From the time the class bell rang until you left, you've been fiddling with your phone. I'm asking why is it so urgent?"

Li Chuan unscrewed the soda and took a sip, "He didn't reply to my message."

Li Chuan didn't say who this "he" was, but Peng Siyuan had automatically figured it out.

"...Is it just this love?" This was the second time Peng Siyuan asked.

Li Chuan said flatly, "I'm a little worried, so I went out and made a phone call. Is there any problem?"

"Do you think there is no problem? Is the problem serious? Would a normal person treat people so strictly?" Peng Siyuan asked a series of questions.

Li Chuan seemed to be thinking, his eyes were half closed, his side face was very superior, a small shadow was covered by his eyelashes, and there was a melancholy temperament, "I don't know what other people are like, anyway, I am like this, can't I? "

His rhetorical question made Peng Siyuan speechless.

He didn't know if it was possible, his focus was clearly on whether it was normal or not.

Lin Leyang was taking a shower in the bathroom, and the shower was spraying a mist. His hair was indeed very long. Maybe he should listen to Li Chuan and go to the barber shop to cut it someday... Thinking of this, his limbs became stiff again. Why did it have to be Li Chuan? Did he think about it only after bringing it up?

Lin Leyang sighed deeply in the bathroom alone.

After such a long cool-down period, he vaguely remembered the content of the dream, but it also made him more entangled.

Because those blurry pictures belong to another person.

This gave Lin Leyang an illusion of "disloyalty".

Obviously!He never experienced those things at all!

Obviously!He and Li Chuan haven't done anything yet!

Wait... What do you mean you haven't done it? What else do you want to do?

The more Lin Leyang thought about it, the more confused he was, he hugged his head and let the shower drench him thoroughly.

At five o'clock in the evening, he packed himself up and was about to go out. Aunt Chang asked him to take an umbrella, "It's hot outside now."

Lin Leyang waved his hand, "No, I'm not a little girl, and the sun is going down soon."

After he finished speaking, he went out, and within a minute he retreated and shouted inside: "Aunt Chang, find me an umbrella!"

Hell, how can it be so hot in June!

Lin Leyang was not familiar with the road, so he stopped a car with an umbrella at the intersection, and the taxi stopped in front of him. As soon as he put away the parasol and sat in the back seat, he heard the driver in front say: "Girl, go Where?"

Lin Leyang: "..."

He opened his mouth and reported the address.

The driver turned his head and glanced at him, with a kind smile on his chubby face, "Oh, I'm sorry, I missed it, this looks like art."

Lin Leyang: "...I don't do art."

It seems like he hasn't drawn for a long time.

I didn't go to special art classes before, and I still drew something every week. Now I have drawn a sketch for Li Chuan since I woke up, and I haven't drawn anything else.

Even the one given to Li Chuan was done in a very unfamiliar way, which made him want to come back and destroy it in situ.

Lin Leyang lowered his head and began to gather the umbrella in his hand, unwilling to think about it.

After arriving at Li Chuan's school, Lin Leyang did not send a message to Li Chuan immediately, but walked around the campus alone.

All the people walking on the campus were young boys and girls. Lin Leyang immediately felt the difference between himself and others, including him and Li Chuan. If two people stood together, it would be very easy to identify who was the older one. .

If I didn't go through such absurd things, I should be one of these students, as a freshman entering the university for the first time...

The sun was about to set, but he still held up the umbrella, hoping to hide himself in the shadows. Naturally, it was useless to hide his ears and steal the bell. After a while, Lin Leyang turned himself astray, so he had no choice but to call Li Chuan for help.

"Have you finished class yet?" Lin Leyang didn't know why he whispered.

"There are still 5 minutes, have you arrived yet?" Li Chuan squatted on the side of his seat and spoke.

Peng Siyuan was no longer surprised, and continued to play his game with his head bowed.

Lin Leyang still took it easy, like a whisper between the two: "Then I'll wait for you after school."

"Um, at the door?"

Lin Leyang had no choice but to tell the truth: "...No, I got lost in your school."

Li Chuan paused: "Then you wait for me, I'll go find you."

When Li Chuan arrived, Lin Leyang had put away his umbrella and was squatting in the corner to watch the ants move.

He raised his head when he heard footsteps, there was no dazzling light as imagined, and Li Chuan's shadow covering him actually made him feel at ease.

"It seems to be raining." He stood up while talking, feeling dizzy, Li Chuan supported him, and his arm touched his wristband.

He put the wristband on again, to cover up the hideous scar.

Li Chuan was still wearing long sleeves, and the arms under the clothes were already strong enough to support Lin Leyang.

They all have a past to hide, so it seems like a good match.

Lin Leyang himself didn't notice that he was laughing, Li Chuan lowered his head, more shadows fell on his head, his eyes, covering his whole body.

He didn't want to escape.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Chuan asked him.

It was a bit similar to when they first met, but there was something different about it.

"Can't you laugh?" Lin Leyang asked directly this time.

Li Chuan replied: "Yes, you look good when you smile, I like to see you smile."
