desolate

Standing in the high-rise room of the only four-star hotel in Pingjiang City, you can see sparkling neon lights outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

He suddenly remembered that there was a sports meeting in the city several years ago. At that time, the government attached great importance to it, and several celebrities were invited to perform at the opening ceremony.At that time, I heard that they all lived here, and the locals wandered downstairs of the hotel until midnight like watching monkeys.

...It turns out that the upstairs can't see anything clearly.

I haven't seen him for half a year. Since entering this hotel, Pei Ye suddenly noticed that the people around him seemed to have changed a little.

In the past, Zhou Ze was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle who could endure anything, and a self-righteous extraterrestrial expert. Now when the turtle shell is removed, it has thorns from head to tail.

"How long are you going to live here?"

Pei also looked at the person packing his luggage in the corner.

The 26-inch suitcase is half full of clothes and half full of study materials.

Zhou Ze found two pieces of clothes inside, and handed him one: "My mother agrees that I will live here until school starts, so I should stay as long as you want me to."

"That's not what I meant..." Pei Ye wrinkled his nose and changed the subject abruptly, "Forget it, why didn't you tell me when you came?"

Zhou Ze changed his shirt in front of him. At such a close distance, Pei Ye realized that he was not so thin, but had some muscular lines, which became much firmer, and his back was no longer as thin as before. .

He turned his upper body sideways, and a string of bluish-black tattoos on the inside of his left arm swayed, before he could see it clearly, it was covered by his clothes.

"I want to say, but you changed your phone number, I'm afraid you won't let me come."

He smiled faintly, and threw the dirty clothes on the sofa. He didn't seem to be angry or sad because of it. He was as calm as the moon in the depths of the tide, but it made Pei also feel a huge guilty conscience, and he didn't dare to look into those eyes .

"... Sit down for a while, I'll take a shower first."

Zhou Ze didn't say much, turned around and opened the bathroom door and walked in.

After a while, the sound of dripping water sounded, and the frosted glass became even more blurred. Only an unclear shadow fell on the glass, shaking slightly with the movement.

He had seen that body without anything, with a fairer complexion than ordinary people, and inch by inch of purple veins would emerge like patterns, and it was easy to sweat when emotional, but most of the time it was impossible to tell the difference Whose.

His thoughts were like a wild horse that had taken off its stiffness, dragging him around uncontrollably, until there was a knock on the door, and then he was pulled back.

It just so happened that the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and the shadow on the glass seemed to be getting closer, and the outline suddenly became clear.

Zhou Ze's voice carried the reverberation unique to the bathroom: "It seems that the takeaway I ordered has arrived, please help me get it."

"...You haven't eaten yet?" Pei Ye blamed himself for his negligence, and opened the door to take the takeaway.

As soon as he turned around, Zhou Ze came out wrapped in a bath towel, his hair was dripping wet, with the refreshing scent of mint shampoo.The upper body is naked, and the tattoo on the inside of the arm is a string of English, which he cannot read.

Zhou Ze took the takeaway from him, and asked about the smell of the barbecue, with a satisfied expression on his face: "Huayu's canteen is so mouth-watering, I've always wanted the roasted pork belly here, but it's a pity that only Pingjiang has it."

They sat down at the coffee table by the floor-to-ceiling windows. Zhou Ze had already put on short sleeves, and the bath towel was torn off, revealing his shorts.

Pei Ye retracted his vision from the corner of his eye, feeling an indescribable regret.

Strange to say, the two haven't seen each other for such a long time, and they were not happy when they separated last time, but now only Pei Ye is uncomfortable.Zhou Ze asked a lot about his recent situation in a chatty manner, but he didn't mention his own life much. Even if Pei asked, he only briefly mentioned it.

"The one in your hand..."

Although he looked like he didn't want to talk, Pei Ye still wanted to ask and understand.

"You mean this?" Zhou Ze rolled his short sleeves to his shoulders, "I got a tattoo before I came here, it's the lyrics of a song, I'll play it to you."

He put the phone on the edge of the table, and the music played slowly, and the brisk melody was not affected by the unintelligible English lyrics.

Pei Ye spent most of his time in the 4S store. The receptionist was a beautiful girl who liked to play pop love songs the most. The girl was fascinated by it, but he didn't feel anything - it should be said that all the songs were similar to him.

After all, listening to music is a "leisure and elegant" thing, which is not suitable for him.

But there are always exceptions.

Pei also looked down at the title of the song on the music software: Traveling Light, he watched it for a long time, until the end of the song automatically skipped to the next one, he finally looked away.

Zhou Ze on the opposite side seemed to have forgotten the topic just now, his sleeves fell down by himself because of his actions, and he stared intently at the busy traffic outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

"sorry."

Pei also said suddenly.

Zhou Ze was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and smiled softly: "What's wrong?"

Pei also frowned: "...you seem to be very unhappy."

Zhou Ze shook his head and denied this statement: "I am often unhappy, but being unhappy does not mean that it is not good. Let me tell you good news. According to my current grades, I still have hope to be admitted to the university I like. Do you like it?" Nanjing? Or Suzhou?"

Pei also knows these two cities, one is because of a movie that the class organization watched in junior high school, and the other is because of his own father.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam."

Compared to these, he was more worried about Zhou Ze's illness.

In fact, to a certain extent, Zhou Ze agreed with Ma Wenjing. For a long time, he did not even admit that his illness was serious enough to require treatment. Even if his body was deeply affected, he was unwilling to cooperate—in his words Said, this disease is as common as a cold, don't worry about it, anyway, I will get better.

"I won't fail the exam, I've figured it out..."

Figured out what?

Zhou Ze's eyes flickered slightly, and it had been a long time since Pei had seen such eyes in him, serious and pure, confident and firm.

"I think my mother is right, the future is very important, money is very important, I am not qualified to take her money and tell her 'leave me alone', and I can't drag you down with a relationship with nothing, you are already very tired, So you don't have to worry about me, I will study hard and take the exam well, just wait until I am admitted to university."

He couldn't wait to prove himself, seriously as if he was taking an oath.

Regarding his future, Pei didn't give any response, just nodded and said yes, he knew that Zhou Ze was already working hard, studying hard, treating illnesses hard, and coming to see himself hard.

He is already very good, what is not good is himself.

Zhou Ze didn't know his inner struggle, he just felt that he "expressed his sincerity", and the other party must feel his sincerity, so he was very happy.

The few bottles of beer that came along with the barbecue were divided up by the two of them. Pei also held a good amount of alcohol, and he seemed to have no reaction after drinking two or three bottles, but he forgot Zhou Ze's amount of alcohol.He chatted while eating, and drank very quickly. After he realized it, the man's eyes had already started to wander.

The chairs in the hotel are relatively small sofa chairs. Zhou Ze has both legs tucked in on it. He is tall, and this position should be extremely uncomfortable, but because his mind is confused, he subconsciously maintains the movements he is most used to.

"...It's almost drunk, why don't you go to sleep."

Pei also saw that he was not in high spirits, so he came over and wanted to pull him to the bed, but Zhou Ze shrank for too long, and when he stood up, he felt numb below his calves.

"Wait a minute... my feet are numb..."

The two of them stuck together instantly, before Zhou Ze realized something was wrong, Pei was already stunned.

After the subtle atmosphere spread for two seconds, Pei Ye pushed him onto the bed, and then hid in the bathroom in embarrassment. Before he left, he didn't forget to hide it: "I'm sweaty all over, I'm going to take a shower first."

Zhou Ze was "forced" to lie on the bed.

The chandelier on the ceiling refracts light in countless directions through glass ornaments.He glanced at the bathroom with dissatisfaction, and cursed something useless in a low voice.

……

The sound of water in the bathroom lasted for a long time before it stopped.

Pei Ye was covered in cold air, and when he came out, the lights outside had been turned off, leaving only a non-existent porch light.

Hearing the steady breathing of the person on the bed, Pei Ye was inexplicably relieved, and approached the bed with a towel wrapped around him, intending to get clean clothes.

It seems that because of the sound of footsteps, the person on the bed suddenly turned over, and then stretched out his hand from under the quilt.

"thirsty……"

Pei was also taken aback. After realizing it, he turned around and took a bottle of mineral water that was already in the room, and picked him up from the bed.

"Slower."

He was held by Zhou Ze with one hand and the water bottle with the other, nervous because he was worried that the other party would drink too fast.

Zhou Ze drank half a bottle before stopping. In the dark room, his lips glistened with water after drinking the water.

He gently pushed the water away, and on the other hand, he grabbed Pei Ye's hand again.

"..."

"What did you say?"

Seeing his mouth moving, Pei thought he was talking to him, so he bent over to listen.

But before he could hear anything, his wrist was suddenly pulled vigorously, and his whole body fell forward unsteadily, which made the bad Zhou Ze go up as he wished.

The lips and teeth of the two touched each other, and Pei also felt his lips hit his teeth. The instant pain and the sweet smell of blood made him want to retract, but there was a hand on the back of his neck that kept pushing him hard. push down.

"Zhou Ze...!"

Zhou Ze slowly opened his eyes, and the two separated for a moment, keeping a distance of two centimeters pretending to be reserved.

The moonlight was brighter than the light, and it diffused through the window, and the white sheets were already messed up.

Zhou Ze didn't give him a chance to breathe - he let go of the arm supporting his back, lay down all over, and even pulled Pei down.

He could only hear the other party's slightly disordered breathing.

Zhou Ze raised his head as a signal, his legs bent restlessly, and his sly smile made it hard to move his eyes: "...you are hard."

It was a premeditated encounter, and everything had been planned from the moment he fled.

Pei also stared at the person below him without blinking.

Obviously he was not drunk, but at this moment he was even more embarrassed than the other party.He was being invited to participate in a long-awaited carnival, and now he stood at the door, but his reason suddenly resisted reluctantly.

Do it?

Don't do it?

Just do it.

He told himself that he chose to listen to the call of his true self and refused to admit that it was the temptation of desire.
